The New Persian riinister.

"~HE ANNOUNCEMENT that
the Persian government has
IL decided to send another
diplomatic representative To
Washington is more proof of the wide
spread influence of the prestige gained
for the United States during the span
ish war Since the departure of Hadji
Hassen Ghooli Khan, in 1888, the land
of the Shah has had no representative
in America. Ghooli Khan was an ex-
tremely proud and naughty individual
who went about like the heroes of the
Arabian nights. attired in brilliant
costume and attended by body
guard VINO carried a drawn scimeter
of comic opera pattern. In this garb
the minister seldom failed to attract
attention that was second only to that
aroused by a circus parade, and was
invariably followed by crowds of small
boys who gazed with awe at the no
table parsonage or guyed the individual
with the crooked sword. Efforts of
the police to protect the minister
served only to increase the crowds
finally the prince fled from the coun-
try in disgust and returned to his ma
tive land, where, it is said. he was
! obliged for time. to endure the ridi-
cule of his neighbors.
The experience Of Hadji Hassen
Ghooli Khan brought the United States
mission into disrepute and no Persian
| of prominence has cared to accept the
! appointment since. Now, however, the
| important place occupied by this ma
| ton among the powers of the earth
! has convinced the Shah that Persia
| should be represented at Washington,
! and another man will be sent.
! Whether the new representative of the
! Oriental potentate will attract as much
| attention as the former remains to be
seen. In any event it is probable that
| he will be obliged to remain and face
| the applause, as Persia can no longer
! afford 10 be without representation In
! this country.

Captain, Colonel, General, Judge.

Captain, Colonel, General, Judge.
IT is A RATHER difficult task to
point out the traits of manner and
the "earmarks" which entitle a man
to be distinguished by such honorable
appellations as Judge" Colonel Z"
Captain" or one of the other titles
bestowed in every community upon its
various citizens. And sometimes the
reasons are not always complimentary
to the character of the wearer.
A tenderfoOt was standing watching
a ferryman on the Missouri river,
which was not very wide at that par
ticular point, so that he had frequent
opportunities to converse with the
ferryman as he went back and forth
with his load At one of the pausas
between loads the ferryman lighted
his pipe and prepared to resume thu
conversation interrupted by the last
trip.
Il notice" observed the tenderfoot,
that you address each of your male
passengers either as Captain Colonel
or General or some such distinguished
title. Now, is it a fact that these
gentlemen you have carried over are
all Captains, Colonels and so forth?"
Laws, no." replied the ferryman
laughing heartily.
Then" asked the tenderfoot chow
do you come to give all these titles 10
these people?"
well, you see," said the ferryman
lin this country people are not all
alike. There's somethin' about each
of them that's different. Now, a man

A False Alarm.

A NONG THE communications re-
"A ceived in the regular mails at the
department of agriculture a few weeks
ago was request from farmer, To-
Gated in one of the states of the far
west, that he be supplied with guam
titY of a certain kind of seed. He. de-
sired, he said, to make use of the seed
on his farm for experimental purposes.
The communication passed through the
customary channels until it finally
reached the section of seed and plant
introduction. In due time IL package
of the desired seed was mailed to the
address of the applicant, inclosed in
one of the ordinary official penalty en-
velopes.
Much to the surprise of the officials
the seed was returned to the depart
ment a few days ago. Accompanying
it was a long explanatory letter from
the farmer full of protestations that
he was innocent of any intent of
wrongdoing. He had wanted the seed
for private use on his farm. he said,
but when he made application was
ignorant that such use was' unlawful.
He added that as he had promptly re-
turned the seed, not having made use
of it, he hoped he would not be made
to pay the fine.
The department people We're highly
amused when it dawned upon them
that the western farmer had mistaken

Force of Habit.
THE YOUNG MAN took a piece of
paper and a pencil from his pocket

THE YOUNG MAN took a piece of
1 paper and a pencil from his pocket
and laid the paper on his knee.
"I will have something important
to say to you in a minute, Miss Jones"
he said.
Then he read over carefully what
was written on the paper and crossed
out a word.
"Superfuous." he said, half to him
self.
He went over it again and crossed
out another word
Its just as strong without that"
he muttered. 1--WE are all too prone
to use adjectives and adverbs, any
way"
He picked up the paper and seemed
about to begin to read from it, but
suddenly stopped.
THAT whole sentence might as we'll
come out" he said. THE meaning is
perfectly clear without it. Conciseness
is really the crying need of the hour.
Then, turning to the girl, he said: "Be
mine"

The leaf-buds burst on every tree
When bonny April comes,
The robins all are mad with glee
When bonny April comes!
And children, too, rejoice and sing
Their carols to returning spring
When smiling, fiowery, fearful, showeTy
Changeful April comes!
The Violets-bud with yearning thrill
When bonny April comes.

While raindrops patter on the caves

General Joe Wheeler is said to be
slated for defeat at the next election,
because he hasspoken kindly of the Nc
Kinley administration and demonstrat-

rise above the narrow teachings OF his
political creed. General Wheeler's case

litical suicide for one in this position

them to buy food. This expedient does
not pauperize the people and IL gives
the government some return for its
money-generally return which in
itself Is calculated to diminish future
dangers of famine. Road building and
canal building are the staple occupa-
tions in famine years. Tens of thou
sands of miles of roads have been con-
structed as relief works. Even better
than roads are the canals, perhaps the
greatest material blessings bestowed
upon India. A few years ago tho
whole vast region between the Ravi
and the Chenab rivers, from Lahore
to Multan, was desert, the few
wretched inhabitants of which main
tained a precarious existence. Today
its large population Is prosperous
among some of the finest wheat fields
in the world. The change has been
effected by the construction OF canals
for irrigation. And what has been
done there has been done in a hundred
other districts. Within the last three
months the Indian government has
spent more than $1O,OOO,OOO upon relief
works and it will doubtless have to
spend millions more before the famine
is past. We shall doubtless hear of
much distress and of many deaths and
Of deficit in the Indian budget. But
there will be hundreds of miles of ca
nails and thousands of square miles of
land made proof against drought, and
millions of people made secure against
any recurrence of famine"

of a hundred centuries of ignorance,
superstition and fear is no light task,
