Not Wanting a Job.

When the late w. Z. Gladstone was
chancellor of the eIchequer, one day
he was in the shipping department Of
the government office getting some in
formation and figures for the coming
budget. While thus engaged a Sunder-
land shipowner called to see Mr.. Lind
sey, the then member for Sunderland.
While waiting for Mr.. Lindsey to
come in the shipowner got his eye on
Mr.. Gladstone and was watching him
closely. After doing so little while lie
thus addressed him:
Thou seemst good writer and clev-
er ut figures. I'll give thee f1OO a
year, and that's an offer thou'lt not get
every day!"
Mr.. Gladstone thanked him and said
he would see Mr.. Lindsey.
Just then Mr.. Lindsey entered. Then
Mr.. Gladstone told Mr.. Lindsey of the
offer his friend had made him.
Mr.. Lindsey said 1t was very good
offer, but he did not know if Mr.. Glad
stone could be spared. Anyway he had
better introduce them. Turning to his
friend, the shlpowner, he said: ALLOW
me to introduce you to w. u. Glad
stone, chancellor of the exchcquer-Mr.
So-and-so, Sunderland" The amaze
ment Of the shipowner cannot be de-

ohlceso,s Queer Indian,

An Englishman Of rank and money
visited Chicago recently and with him
came his private secretary, young,
fresh faced, jolly fellow just out of
Oxford university. The secretary
brought letters Of Introduction to u
Chicago man fran well known Lon
don actor and an equally prominent
man of letters. The Englishman came
direct to Chicago, making no stop in
New York. The secretary called upon
the Chicago man to whom he had let
tiers and who did little entertaining,
inviting three city friends to meet the
private secretary Mt luncheon at not
ell restaurant.
1t was after the cigars were lighted
that the conversation turned upon
things American. The Chicagoans
knew that the Britons were credited
with believing that they could shoot
buffaloes under the shade Of the Audi
torium and shoot grizzlies along the
Shokie, but they We're not quite pre-
pared for what was to come. The lit
tie luncheon party had been waited
upon by coal black negro with crisp
hair curled tight to his head. The Sec
retary throughout the repast had eyed
the attendant with interest. When tho
waiter finally had left the room, the
English guest turned to his host and
said:
"hfr. Nelson, 1t seems to me that I
read somewhere that the American In
dams had straight hair. The hair Of
the one who waited ON us curls like

An Expensive Knife,

An old man went into a cigar store
where pocketknives are on sale. He
had fancy for one of the knives, but
thought the price, Is cents. too high.
After parley with the proprietor he
concluded to wager rs cents against
the knife and play game of poker.
He lost the money and then that much
again. He continued to lose until he
lost $121, all the money he had, but
the proprietor made him a present Of
the knife.
In the afternoon he returned, saying
he was dissatisfied with the knife. He
had paid 1921 for 1t, but would will
ingly exchange 1t for a 81 article. The
dealer kindly made the exchange, and
the man went his way rejoicing. He
had no money to trouble him, but he
had a knife. and, after all, knife is a
good thing to have.-Arizona Repub-

Willing to Compromise.


About the middle of the civil war
freshly appointed colonel, with new
ly enlisted regiment, Joined the Union
forces in the far south. One bright
October morning word was received
that small detachment of General
Wheelers cavalrymen was on the 9TH
err side of the hill, and force started
out in pursuit. The next day the Con-
federates were reported miles distant
in the opposite direction. The third
day the new colonel and veteran
brigadier started out for pleasure
ride. A mile from camp they rode In
to the fugitive Confcderntes, who had
been clrcling the camp for week. 1t
was narrow escape, but they got
away unframed.
After 1t was over the general said to
the colonel, "Well, what do you think
Of war now?"
as Wheeler in this neighborhood
much of the time?" replied the colo
mel evasively.
"All the time. He is here, there and
everywhere. What do you think Of
the prospect?"
WELL" answered the colonel reflect

some way this Internal thing can be
compromised"- Francisco Argo-

Married with a bump,

The marriage customs of the Negulos
are peculiar. The young man who
seeks a bride first obtains the favor of
her parents and then pursues her,
catching her in his arms. She breaks
loose and runs and does not yield until
lie has caught her several times. Final
ly he leads her in triumph to her home.
Here her father drags the youth up q
ladder to her floor of their hut. Tho
mother drags up the maiden. They
are then made to kneel, and the ia
ther pours over them a cocoanut she'll
full Of water He then bumps their
heads together, and the ceremony Is
completed. They spend their honey
moon in the depths Of the mountains
and for five days and nights are lost
to sight, after which they come back
to everyday life.
There is another marriage custom
which is worth describing. Instead Of
the youth and maiden being dragged
up the hut ladder they are made to
climb two saplings that grow near
each other. Then an elder of the group
grasps the saplings and draws them
together until the heads of the young
couple touch, with kiss or bump,
according to the force used. rhis
makes them man and wife.-Forum.

and the atfidavits of County Auditor
Stetson, County Treasurer Matthews,
II. O. Haeberle, NJ. F. Leroy, and
Ennis Boggs fixed the number of resi-

SOB. There are probably few names
on each list that do not count, but up
wards of four out of every five of the
resident freehold taxpayers of the city
have petitioned for an election to vote
the tax. A bare majority would have
been sufficient, but the canvassers who
had the work in charge were greeted so
cordially by the great majority of the
people that they insisted upon giving
everyone chance to sign. Sfhe coun-
Gil fixed May It'll. as the date for the
special election, and made the following
record in relation thereto:
In the Matter of the Petition of Ger

Mrs. Henry Hutchinson.

This community was startled by the
news of the death of Mrs. Henry
Hutchinson, which occurred. at the
family residence in this city on Tues
day evening of last week. That she
was III, was not generally known, as
she was not confined to her bed until
the Sunday preceding her demise.
Miss Elizabeth Turner was born
September "a, 1929, in London, England.
On July II, 1859, she was united in
marriage with Capt. Henry Hutchinson,
then resident of Sunderland, England,
and resided with him there until 1857,
when they came to this country, first
settling in Dyersville, and year later
to this county, which has since been
their home.
AS neighbor, wife and mother, Mrs.
Hutchinson lived close to the line of
perfection. She was loyal, patient and
true to every relation of life.
Six children were born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Hutchinson. Two daughters,
Mrs. q. @. Bradley and Miss Emma
Hutchinson, and two sons, Joseph and
William Ii. Hutchinson, survive their
mother. Two daughters, May and
Henrietta. died some years ago.
Had Mrs. Hutchinson lived till the
18th day of next July, she and her hus-
band, Captain Hutchinson, would have
celebrated the golden anniversary Of
their marriage, and the event was
being looked forward to with interest
by their children and close personal
friends.
Mrs. Hutchinson was an Episcopal
ian, but that denomination having no
church here in Manchester, she usually
attended devine services. at the Congre.
gational church and the Congregational
pastor, Rev. II. w. futile, preached the
funeral sermon which was kind,
thoughtful and very appropriate.
The funeral services were held at the
family residence on Main street last
Saturday afternoon. The interment
was in the Manchester cemetery.
Mrs. Hutchinson SO lived, and 80 per-
formed lifesevery duty, that she could
follow with confidence the shadowy
hand that leads to the presence of the
never-erring Judge.
