PRINCE REMEMBERED HIM.

Ten years ago when the crown prince of Japan was in his thirteenth year his highness spent a summer at Futami- guara Ise. While out on the water one day the prince noticed a fisherman's boy of about the same age of himself. whose skill in swimming drew forth his admiration. The lowly youth, whose name was Yei, was presented to the prince and there sprang up friendship b tween them. His highness was once more back at Ise the other day, on his wedding tour. and the prince thought of Yei. He wanted to see his old friend. and, after a good deal of trouble. the order was conveyed to Yei, now grown a sturdy young man, but still poor and lowly. In his delight the prince talked freely of the past. and then allowed Yei to take leave of him, loaded with Vari- ous presents-Clev51and Leader.

TOOK A LOOK AT THE WORLD

Alexander weeping because the world was so small has a counterpart in an old inhabitant of Luss, a pretty little village on Lock Lomond side, Scot land, who at last has been persuaded to climb the mountain which has filled so large a part of his horizon all the days of his life. In Luss he has lived, as his fathers lived before him, and from Luss he has never had the ambition to jour ney, not even to Glasgow. But some one got him to the top of Ben Lomond the other day.

MUST HAVE BEEN AN 1MposTER

Senator Thomas H. Carter, of Monta- ma. and Senator Beveridge, Of Indiana, are probably the two most illustrious book agents in the world Each man at one stag5 in his early life sold books for living. Senator Carter managed the national republican campaign in 1892. and was a prominent figure at the re- cent republican convention.
 Since his election Gs senator MT. Car ter has acquired and maintained the reputation of being one of the best sto- ry tellers in congress. His anecdot,s are true to life and generally refer to some incident that has come within his own observation. In appearance the senator looks more and more like uncle Sam brought up to date. His stalwart frame, ruddy face, and smooth lips and pointed beard would do for an artists model.
 Not long ago stranger in Washing ton who had heard much about Senator Carter said to an employe of the sen ate: q heard Carter tell his famous 'hold-up' story at my hotel last night. I didn't think much of it''
 Are you sure it was Carter?" asked the emploXe. somewhat dubiously.
 Certain. He looked as if he had stepped out of a political cartoon. You couldn't mistake him and I know the story by heart"
 What did the crowd do?"
 Nothing, there wasn't even a smile |" My friend said the senate man. pi5yingly, "you've been deceived b1 some vulgar imposter. When Tom Car ter tells his -hold-up' story the crowd has got to laugh. Evening Post.
