In short, it is only necessary for the statisti-

checking the proper workings of the machines
are ingenious and interesting. If the card is
not completely punched, or not properly fed
to the machine, or is placed upside down, or
if some item has been overlooked, or, in fact,
if everything is not all right, the machine
refuses to work. and the card is rejected.
Neither will the machine work if the circuit

advantage that it will not make mistakes

because the weather is warm, or by reason of

A GOOD ILLUSTRATION.

Thomas Sheridan, the Irish clergy
man and grandfather of Richard Brin-
sley Sheridan, the dramatist, had a
great distaste for metaphysical dis
cussions, whereas his son Tom, the
actor, had a great liking for them.
Tom one day tried to discuss with his
father the doctrine of necessity. pray,
father said he. "did you ever do
anything in a state of perfect indif-
ference without motive, I mean, of
some kind or other?''
Sheridan, who saw what was coming,
said, Eyes. certainly"
''Indeed?'
Yes, indeed"
'tWhat, total Indifference total en-
tire, thorough indifference"
Eyes, total, entire, thorough indif-
ference

what it is that you can do with
(mindD total entire, thorough indif-
ference?"
'tWhy, listen to you, Tom," said

POLITICAL BURGLARS.

Quite recently a countess who had
been despoiled of her jewel-case, con-
tanning diamonds to the extent of G5,-
900, received that article by parcel
post along with the following:
So sweet, SO sweet, the diamonds in
their settings;
So sweet the pearls, oh, Countess
B:
So blithe and gay III live upon their
"gettings.''
From pub to pub I'll drink the
health of thee.
A thief who broke into a nobleman's
mansion near Maidenhead and stole
quantity of silver plate besides drink
ing bottle of port wine, left, with
characteristic effrontery, a rhyme,
written in chalk on the dining-table,
which ran:
Your silver makes me jump for joy,
But joy soon turns to sorrow;
Your port is bad methinks that I
Shall feel pain tomorrow.
Not long since burglar who ran
sacked the house of a magistrate, while
the inmates were asleep, composed the
following little rhyme:
So snug and peaceful in your Chaplain
home
While you're asreep, I'll seek to roam.
Good-by, my lord, I may not tarry,
So now no more for Burglar Harry.
It seems strange that in the dead of
night a burglar should draw picture.
but not long since man who robbed
the house of a prominent pro-boer
drew by no means badly-executed
sketch of his victim, below which he
added:
stop the war! Stop the war;" is your
persistent cry,
Your politics are shocking, they make
me pipe my eyes.
You may stop the war, you may stop
your chat,
But you can't stop me, though I've
got your hat.
Some months ago a convict, who
struck his gaoler insensible and then
escaped, robbed a house of a suit of
clothes, hat, and a pair of boots, and
left his prison dress hanging up on
the hat-rack in the hall, with
facetious message attached to it, which
ran:
Although good name once did lose,
step in yours, a good mans shoes;
My character is bad know it's true,
But leave my clothes, as they may
fit you.

ENVIRONMENT.

A lily grew in a garden far
From the dust of the city street;
1t had no dream that the universe
Held a light less pure and sweet
Than it's virgin self, so chaste was it,
So perfect it's retreat.
When night came down, the lily looked
In the face of the stars and smiled,
Then went to sleep-to the sleep of
death
AS the soul of a little child
Goes back to the clasp of the Father
soul,
Untouched and undefled.
A lily bloomed on the highway close
To the tread of the sweeping throng;
1t bore the gaze Of a hundred eyes
Where burned the flame of wrong,
And one came by who tore it's heart
With ruthless hand and strong.
It caught no glimpse of garden fair,
1t knew no other name
For a world that used and bruised it so
Than a world of sin and shame,
And hopeless, crushed, it's spirit passed
AS the evening shadows came.
And who can say but the sheltered vine
A sullied flower had been
Had its home been out on the highway
close
TO the path of shame and sin,
And the other forever angel white
Had it blossomed safe within?
Elizabeth G.. Perkins.

THE ANGLERS WISH.

I in these flowery meads would be,
These crystal streams should solace
me,
To whose harmonious bubbling noise
|, with my angle, would rejoice,
Sit here and see the turtledove
Court his chaste mate to acts of love.
Or, on that bank, feel the west wind
Breathe health and plenty, please my
mind
To see sweet dewdrops kiss these flow-
ers
And then washed off by April showers.
Hear, hear my kenna sing song,
There see blackbird feed her young,
Or see a laverock build her nest,
Here give my weary spirit rest
And raise my low pitched thoughts
above
Earth, or what poor mortals love.
Thus, free from lawsuits and the noise
Of princes court, I would rejoice.
Or, with my Bryan and book,
Loiter long days near Shawford brook,
There sit by him and eat my meat,
There see the sun both rise and set,
There bid good morning to next day,
There mediate my time away,
And angle on and beg to have
A quiet passage to a welcome grave.
-Izaak Walton.

MISTAKES IN FLAG RAISINGS.

1t isn't everybody who knows how to
throw the American colors to the
breezes. Flag-raisings are everyday
occurrences, but there are few people
among those in charge, be they ever SO
patriotic, who are cognizant of the fact
that Old Glory tops everything in the
American possessions, and must not
go below under any circumstances.
At many of the 1ag-raisings there are
remnants unfOlded on the same poles,
and generally the mistake of placing
the pennant at the top, over the flag,
is made. This is very irritating to the
regular navy men, who regard such an
act in their ranks as deserving of dis
missal A number Of the officers
stationed at League island navy yard
have time and again had the flag given
its proper place on poles in various
parts of the city, especially over the
schoolhouses downtown. On Decora-
ton day, there was 1ag-raising over
the Matthew w. Baldwin school. Six
teenth and Porter streets, and the
pennant, which contained the school
name, was placed at the top of the pole.
Word came from League island that
the country's color should be put at the
top, and the error was Immediately
corrected. Recently the same mistake
was made at National park, on the
Delaware river. The irritating sight
was seen from League island, and a
message was dispatched in boat to
have the positions of the flag and
pennant reversed. Philadelphia Rec

ENGLAND'S ACCOUNT WITT
INDIA.
WITH

God help the people of India!" said
Donald Smeaton, member OF Lord
Curzons council to Reuters agent at
Bombay the other day; Great
Britain and Ireland owe debt to the
Indian peasants, debtO millions upon
Millions We know that India an
nually RENTS to England sum es-
for home charges, pensions, interest
and the like. We know that the people
of India are virtually debarred from
the highest posts in India, except a
very small percentage, and that s. b.
100000 are annually paid to European
officials employed in India and sending
all their savings to Europe. We know
that our ancient industries, like weav-
| ing and spinning anu dyeing, have
| been killed by European competition
and that the land is SO heavily taxed
| in many provinces that the peasant
cannot savea good years crop for years
| of bad harvest. We know that an army
is kept in India, and paid for by In
| dia sufficient for England's imperial
requirements over the best part OF
| Asia and Africa. We know that our
| finances are adjusted by executive
| councils in India and in England, in
which the people of India have no
seat, and that in the taxation of India
we have no voice. These are some of
the burdens we bear in India, and these
are some of the causes of the famines
from which we periodically suffer.
Will Englishmen add to them the
burden of paying for British forts and
armies, British establishments, and
wars in various parts of Africa and
Asia-from the Suez canal to Mozam
bique, from the Tigris to the Malay
peninsula? Will the English con-
science reconcile itself to thus proceed

India has ever known, and 5,OO0,tUv

A WOMAN CORONER IN KANSAS.

A dispatch from Topeka, Kan, says:
miss Lillian E. Hall, of Winfield,
Kan, lately appointed coroner of Cow
ley county by Governor Stanley has
entered upon the discharge of her
duties, although it has not yet been
her lot to oficiate at an inquest
Miss Hall is &c years old and ma
tive of Cowley county. For three years
she has been stenographer in the cor
oner's office and is familiar with the
work. When she announced herself as
candidate for the Office people laugh
ed ia her, but all signed her petition.
Miss Hall has a common school
education and is full of business, hav-
ing made her own living since she
was 16. She is believed TO be the only
woman ever appointed to the office OF
coroner"
Married women would probably do,
better than single ones as coroners.
They are so used to sitting on live
men they would think little of sitting
on dead ones.
