received the votes of the two members
from Franklin county both OF whom
are supporters of Senator Quay.
There was only one absentee at the
meeting of the anticipates. Senator
William Flynn of Allegl any presided.
and Senator David Martin Of Phiiadel-
phia made a speech in favor Of ballot
reform and the Fow registration bill.
Pursuant to the agreement, the anti
Quay Republicans dropped Congress-
man Dalzell and cast their ballots for
Judge Stewart Of Franklin county. The
ballot, the sixty-sixth. resulted as fol-
lows:

tai, 222 Necessary to a choice, liz;

OF GOLF AND DEATH.

Our planet IL q links whereon we play
Few holes or many, ~ death may decree.
We call him Colonel Bogy; it's the way
OF mankind to invent kindlicr name
A testing phrase for the arch enemy.
With every match tho colonel leaves the tee,
But all alone he finishes the game
Some start with the rash confidence OF youth.
To end in an untimely bunker grave;
The colonel is Indictment, void Of ruth,
Spares not the slashing driver in his pride;
No deft approach. no pawky putt can stave
Him of-many, not overbrave.
Tear up their cards In futile suicide
Sooner or later, oftener coon than late.
We pass, and the next victim forth is led
Wanting himself superior over fate,
But ere the home green 10 in sight he Yields;
With one grim stroke the colonel lays him
dead.
Yet is the long match ours; It's soothly said
The colonel plays not in the Elysian fields.

some Mexican stupidity.

In the observations Of Ranchwo-
man" are plentiful instances illustrat-
ing both the "shif 'lessness" and stu
pidity of Mexican servants. Here is a
sample of the latter quality:
Complying with law and custom. !
provided four men to do each a days
work toward cleaning public ditch
for irrigation purposes. At the end OF
the day youth presented himself and
the bill The names Of but two men
were inscribed as having worked. but
the sum demanded amounted to the
wages Of four
"What is tho meaning Of this?" !
inquired. "If only Luciano and Pedro
worked. why do l pay the wages of
Matilda and Jesus1''
"Two men worked" was the stolid
rejoinder.
"Then won't pay the wages Of
four"
"But two men did four days
work. s"
"AM in one day7 That is impossi-
ble."
"But. sonora, they did,"
"That cannot be. l must understand
better before pay two men the wages
of four. Go and request the majordomo
to look into this affair"
Presently the majordomo appeared.
"Senora. said he, "the bill is cor
rect. The men have worked.
"Senor. repeat, the thing is impos-
sible. Two men cannot in one day do
the work of four men."
"Senora, four men worked.
"Why. then. did this man tell me
that only two worked2 And why are
not the names of Matilda and Jesus on
the billf"
"He told you that only two worked,
because there was no room on the bill
for the names of the others.
The majordomo spoke quite impa-
tiently. az if I should have OWNED that
process of reasoning by instinct. in
duced him to squeeze in the names Of
Matilda and Jesus. which he did with
out a smile. and we parted on the best
of terms.
