Tbe Heaa water TIES.

: One of the most expensive restau-
rants In New York is conducted, 80 far
as it's observing patrons can tell ON
unique system OF tips. The head wait
er OF the room devoted to the use OF
the men guests makes It point to be-
come acquainted with them, find out
their names and becomes genial In the
half respectful, half presuming way
that SO frequently passes for good ma
ture among employees of the kind In
this country. Naturally he receives
liberal fees from his clientele, which Is
made up of rich men able to pay high
prices for the extra service they re-
ceive
When there is no financial response
of this kind to the walters advances,
his cordIallty diminishes. The waters
under him do, with unusual willing
ness, the head walters bidding. They
are evidently Indifferent as to their
own success In the matter OF fees. 1t
is only the good will of the head waiter
that appears to be the goal Of all their
efforts.
Such unselflshness astonishes regular
patrons of the restaurant, and one in
particular undertook to discover the
reason of this attitude of the walters
toward their chief. He learned after
awhile that the tips the head waiter
received were large enough to enable
him to give the walters a part of his
earnings for attending with particular
care to his patrons, who, as rule, con-
fine their contributions to the head
waiter. Tho guests who fail to take
advantage of the head walters over
lures to friendliness are not likely to
fare weIl in that restaurant, where the
walters, certain of fee from the man
over them, are Indifferent to the guests
not included among the list Of his pa
trons.--New York Sun.

A Son of a Sen Cook.

The Information concerning the ex-
preston "a son of sea cook" says
the Philadelphia Times, has not been
found in any reference dictionary. 1t
comes from a prominent citizen, a man
of affairs and man of intelligence.
In 1862 he was for a period the cam
paign companion of Leonard SWEET,
who at that time was a candidate for
congress in Illinois. Mr.. SWEET was
the bosom friend of Abraham Lincoln
his alter ego. In 1888 he was the ad-
vocate in Chicago of the presidential
aspirations of Walter Q. Gresham.
At the time referred to Mr.. SWEET
had an engagement to address voters
in Fremont and Pekin, in Tazewell
county, and by the informant referred
to was driven from Fremont to Pekin.
SWEET had few equals as a conversa-
tionalist, and the talk was brisk and
naturally never to be forgotten by the
man who had proffered his services as
a driver.
The latter, speaking of well known
lawyer Of Pekin, remarked, HE Is q
son of sea cook" Mr.. SWEET turned
abruptly about and said: '-That express
sion is not correct. You mean the son
of q sekawk, which is a perversion Of
the Indian name segonk, which means
a skunk and is usually pronounced Sc
kawk. Few people ever use the term
correctly or comprehend its meaning"

Greenville, Tex. July 3.-A
shooting occurred last night in
which Bob Bolton was instantly
killed and Deputy Constable Will
Hardin mortaIly wounded.
The officers were making an ef-
fort to detect Bolton in the sale OF
liquors in violation of the Sunday
law. when it is stated Bolton
opened his door and fred at Po'
liceman Howard.
Howard returned the fire, shoot
ing Bolton in two places. At this
juncture Deputy Constable Hardin
appeared at the door and Bolton
fred at him, the ball striking Har
din in the breast and coming out
of the right side. Hardin poked
his pistol through the glass door
and shot Bolton twice, the latter
dying instantly.

If Sam went too near a perilous edge,
