Ensign Games Lost His Wager.
Miss Emma Eames has a brother,
Harold, who was an ensign in the
United States navy. His ship was sta
toned at Leghorn, and n day the.
flagship entered the harbor with the
fleet ommander on board. The latter
was very dignifed and was never
known to lose his self control. One
day the commander a in swimming,
and young Eames made a friendly wa
ger with a fellow officer that he would
destroy his seniors equanimity, in
naval parlance. rattle" him. The wa
ger was accepted, and a moment after
ward Eames was in the water swim
ming toward his superior officer. Sud-
denly he paused, and, stopping his
powerful overland stroke, began tread
ing water. Then he saluted precisely
as If he had been on a quarter deck.
To the young mans intense surprise
the, commander returned the salute
with equal gravity. Mr.. Eames lost
his wager.-Saturday Evening Post:

COMPANY DINhERs.
They Are Dreaded By Guests and
Make thu Hostess Nervous.

They Arc Dreaded By Guests and
Make the Hostess Nervous.
Writing on Making Company Of
Guests" Edward Box, in The Ladies'
Home Journal, considers ut q curious
fact that American housewives are 80
loath to believe that q dinner with fuss
and feathers is dreaded by the vast
majority Of people. The highest COM
pliment we can possibly show a guest
at dinner Is to let him partake of an
ordinary meal, to let him come quietly
in and be n Of the family yet this
is the very compliment which we with
hold from him. Instead of giving q
guest what he would relish most we
give him what he really enjoys least.
LET a hostess he ever so graceful
and tactful, let there be years Of. ex-
perience on her shoulders. vet nothing
can conceal from her guests that the
6Dler,'.which she is serving Is other
than an UNUSUAL one. 1t is q formal at
fair. and no amount of grace can make
anything else Of it, for nothing speaks
so loudly or so unerringly as a formal
company dinner. Every course shows
it; every movement of the waitress pro-
claims it; every piece Of china fairly
cries out the occasion.
"And of course no one at the table
really enjoys 1t. The guest certainly
does not, because he knows he is being
made company Of, and that feeling 10
always enough to Offset every enjoy
ment. The hostess does not, for she
hasn't the time. Her eyes are for the
table and her servants, not for her
guest"

Then rising in fury and denunoiation,

For moment she stood there, menac-
ing, at his bedside, looking down in al
most malignant triumph on his amazed
and incredulous face; and then, with
an awful fear checking the beat of her
heart and turning her veins to ice, she
grasped at the flimsy framework that
supported the netting over the cot, and
stood swaying and staggering, her
eyes fixed in terror on the man in the

Seen In the Rough.

Tortoise shells as they are unloaded
from the ships are far from beautiful.
To be classed as rough. they must be
just as they were when taken from the
tortoises' backs. 1t is not until washed
and secured with acids that their ex-
quisite coloring shows. The same is
true Of the beautiful seashells which
come here from the shores Of India and
other tropical lands. There is almost
as much difference between them in
the rough and when finished as there
is between uncut diamonds and those
that have passed through a lapidary's
hands.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

This ruling of the supreme court Will
entitle the Republicans to three addi-
tional registration agents in Salt Lake
City Or at least such is the claim of
Dennis G. Eichnor, the chairman of the
Republican county committee. The
is allowed are Thomas NJ Holt of the
Eighth district. Con O'Donnell of the
TWent-firSt, and Joseph Bull, jr-, of the
Twenty ghth. These three districts
are claimed on the grounds that the
Democratic registration agents were
appointed on the combined Democratic
and Populist vote, and that the Repub-
ican vote was greater than the Demo-
cratic vote alone
Speaking of the matter last evening
Chairman. Eichnor said: I'VE shall
submit the names of. Republicans for
these three districts to the county COM
missioners on Monday and ask that
they be appointed according to law. If
the request is refused we shall take
the matter into court and have it def
nitely settled there"

the same time a eountryman whose
name could not be learned came down
the street and wagon came up
The countryman deliberately whip
ped up and drove between the car and
wagon The space was barely wide
enough for the buggy and Clinton in
stead of Selling the reinS of the horse
tried TO squeeze up next TO the car
The hub of the buggy caught him on
the leg and threw him to the ground
and under the buggy. One wheel pass

rushed to his assistance, but while he
was being taken to the sidewalk the
farmer drove rapidly away and was
soon out of sight
The injured man although quite bad
ly bruised refused further assistance
and hobbled off towards Murray, where
he said he was going to try and get
work.
