not serve two masters, and must give
up one place or the other. Also, she
dropped from the city payroll man
who was working in an alderman's
saloon. Also, Mrs. Paul insisted that
men who held jobs should do good
work. Two views are taken in Chi
cago of her transfer to another ward
The first ward aldermen are supposed
to want her out of the way so lot of
loafers can be put on the payroll to
aid in their reelection; but to the
public the idea is held out that in
other wards there is need of cleaning
the payrolls OF dead beats as we'll as
removing dirt from the streets. 1t is
possible that Mrs. Paul will receive a
hint as to the real reason for her
transfer, and if she fails to stop her
interference with friends of the
aldermen" she may find herself
dropped from the payroll 9" for the
good of the service"

WHAT THE CHARACTERS DENOTE
Cabalstic Marks on the Inside Of Shoes Have
Meaning.

People often ask me the meaning
of the apparently crazy hieroglyphs
and figures that are stamped on the
inner side of the uppers of ready-made
shoes nowadays" said shoe dealer
the other day. "As every shoe manu-.
factory has a secret stamp code Of its
own, and there is, therefore, no posi-
bility of the general public learning
more than that such codes exist, /
may as we'll tell you that the vanity of
customers-shall l say, OF women Gus
toners particularly?-is at the bottom
of these queer stamped characters and
figures. You'd be surprised to know,
for instance, how many women there
are who imagine that they wear No.
B shoe, when in reality the size is a
couple of figures larger. A shoe sales
man who understands his business can
tell precisely the number of the shoe
a woman customer wears at a glance.
But, as often as not, woman whose
foot is a No. 5 calls for a couple of
sizes smaller, and the mysterious
stamped hieroglyph scheme was de-
vised for the purpose of encouraging
her in the belief that her foot is
couple of sizes smaller than it really
measures in shoe leather.
"When woman calls for q No. 3 to
fit No. 5 foot no salesman of this pc
riod who cares for his job is going to
tell her that she requires No. 5. He
simply brings out shoe of the style
she wants that he feels confident will
fit her comfortably and lets it 20 at
that. A woman rarely thinks to in
quire il the shoe is really of the size
she asked for, for she takes it for
granted that the salesman has given
her what she requested. But when a
woman does ask that question it is the
salesman's business to unblushingly
reply in the affirmative-and l don't
think these little necessary white lies
are stored up against men in business.
The woman customer might examine
the hieroglyphs' inside the uppers for
q week with double.refracting tele.
scope without finding out differently,
and, even if she had the key to the
puzzle, it would only make her feel
badly, so what would be the use?
There are tricks in all trades but ours"

STARTLING, IF TRUE.
The New Oyster Is Just a Foot Lone.

wv WV OySsSs - SOSS . WI
The expression, go away from
home for the news" finds verifica-
ton in the following article clipped
from the New York Journal, regard
ing a mammoth oyster, which it af-
firms has been planted in "tide water
off the States of Oregon and Washing
ton." 1t says:
The Yezo oyster, the largest in the
world, has been transplanted to Amer
ica. Fifty barrels of the big Japanese
oysters have emptied into the tide
water off the States OF Washington
and Oregon. New York counts and
Baltimore extras are mere pigmies be-
side the Yezo oysters. The Japanese
importations are q foot long. The
man who tried to follow the ethics of
oyster eating and swallow Yezo
whole would be elected from any self
respecting eating place in the land.
The Yezo oyster must be cut into
quarters at least, and in the case of a
dainty woman, eight would he better.
The Yezo is as delicious and deli.
cate as the Blue Point, as succulent as
the Lynn Haven. It is a boon for
American epicures. Raw, it is lit
tie difficult, by reason of its size.
Roasted. it is worthy of place in the
category of terrapin and pompano.
The government reports merely record
the safe arrival of the Yezos last week,
and gives the notice which savors of a
society item that they are cat home
in the tidewaters of the Pacific of
Washington and Oregon"
The transplanting of oysters is a
necessity in the United States. Were
it not for the frequent transplanting
the country would be oysterless.
This is due in part to the fact that
the oyster is becoming the national
dish. The consumption of oysters in
this country is nearly double that OF
any other.

WESTERN SAFE MADE OF CORK.
It Served Its Purpose in Several Cities and
Was Never Robbed.
New Orleans Times Democra,

NeW orleans lines Democrat.
Did you ever hear of cork safe, :"
asked drummer who represents the
latest thing in chilled steel and bur
glar-batlling time locks. As far as
| am aware" he continued, when
everybody had choruscd a negative,
only one of them was ever built. 1t
was made by an ingenious Dutch me-
chanic io- a one.time confidence man
named Baggs, who operated in Denver,
Salt Lake City and Frisco. The safe
was folding affair made of paper on
a backing OF sheet cork, and when it
was opened up was six feet high and
looked exactly like the real thing. As
it was always placed in corner, it
had only two sides, but every visible
detail was complete - combination
knob, lettering, bolt heads and all.
When folded it could be carried in an
ordinary dress suit case. Baggs used
the thing in fake lottery office
which was of itself marvel of trick
furnishing.
When victim entered the place it
looked like an ordinary business es-
tablishment, with desks, railing, maps
on the walls, safe in the corner and
several clerks at work on books. The
instant he left roll top desk was
opened up into bed. The railing
was folded together and slipped into a
closet, a table was transformed into
washstand, cabinet turned into a
bureau, the safe was put away in its
case, the curtains were pulled down
and the room was to all appearances a
simple sleeping apartment. By that
means the poor dupe was never able to
find the place where he had been bun
coed. 1 saw Baggs' old cork safe when
l was last in San Francisco. 1t is now
owned by a cigar dealer, who bought it
as curio, and, while it is pretty badly
battered, one can still see plainly that
it was wonderful piece of mechani-
cal work. The cigar man told me he
he had been at some pains to inquire
into its history and he had learned
some curious things concerning it.
After it passed out of the hands OF
the bunko people it was used for
long time by a young real estate
agent in St. Louis. He didn't want
to swindle anybody. He merely
wanted to put on 'front.' as the say
ing goes. When he began to prosper
he took down the cork bluff and
bought big box made of real Steel"

MARKHAM'S ESSAY ON HOES.

Having read some thousands Of
explanations of his poem in the last
twelve months, Mr.. Markham himself
rises to explain what he meant when
he. wrote "The Man With the Hoe."
The hoeman in his poem, he says,
does not mean every man with hoe.
1t does not mean the farmer as class.
Neither does it refer to Millet's pic.

hastily imagined, but to that artists
The Man With the Hoe" which
shows single figure of a gaping and
animal-like peasant stopped over a
primitive hoe.
MIR. Markham says he is a hoeman
himself. having "the smack of the
soil and the whir of the forge" in his
blood. He knows the JOY of the farm
toiler whose heart responds to the
whistle Of the meadow lark and to the
ripple OF the poppies in the wheat.
His poem has nothing to do with the
happy laborer with hope in his heart
and an ear that can hear the music OF
the pebbles against his hoe. 1t re-
fers to the drudges who have grown
sodden and vacant-eyed with years
and generations of hopeless overwork-
the "stuned and stolid peasants in all
lands and in all labors." The subject
Of the poem may be the man with the
needle in New York or Chicago
sweatshop, the man with pick in a
West Virginia coal mine. the man
with hod in a London alley, or .
man with spade on the banks OF the
Zuyder Zee. Mr.. Markham's hoeman
is "the symbol of betrayed humanity,
the toiler ground down through ages
OF oppression, through ages of social
injustice" He continues:
This mans battle with the world
has been too brutal. He is not going
up in step with the divine music of
the world. The motion of his life
has been arrested, if not actually re.
versed. He is hulk of humanity,
degraded below the level of the row.

ID not remnant of prehistoric times;
he is not remnant OF barbarism. He
is the savage of civilization. The hoe
man is the effigy of man, being with
no outlet to his life, no uplift to his
soul-a being with no time to rest, no
time to think, no time to pray, no
time for the mighty hopes that make
us men.
This explanation has some of the
eloquence of the poem itself, and In
so far as it corrects a misconception
OF the meaning of the poem it Is
praiseworthy and timely. The plea
for the under dog will never pass un-
needed when it falls upon Anglo
Saxon ears. But the superficiality OF
Mr.. Markham's philosophy, both In
his poem and in his explanation, Is

Whv q Woman's Method Don't Suit.

A Chicago woman has given evil
dence of her sex's unfitness for practi.
cal politics. Mrs. Paul, who had
been inspector of street-cleaning in
the first ward of the great lake city,
where it is said there is need of ex-
ceptional capacity, was recently
transferred to another ward. The
change, along with several others, is
announced by the aldermen to be " for
the good of the service" The ne.
cessity for the improvement of the
service grew out of Mrs. Paul's med
ding in matters that did not concern
her, but did very much concern the
aldermen of the ward. For example,
Mrs. Paul notified a foreman in the

GOV. GOEBEL.

The Louisville Courier-Journal op-
posed the election of Goebel. 1t was
one of the strongest opponents. The
following, which is taken from that
paper of the Sd, may be regarded as
better authority of the true character
of the dead man than that given by
such ghouls as the Oregonian and its
small following. The Journal says:
William Goebel was distinctly and
pre-eminently man who nodded his
own destiny. He sprang from that
national assimilation OF transatlantic
elements which is such an important
constituent of the common people of
America. He was essentially q pro-
duct of the common people-ths bed
rock of the whole massive and tower
ing structure Of our material, moral
and political fabric. From lowly
boyhoOd he made his way single
handed and sure-footed to the crown
Of his ambition-the governorship of
his State. And he achieved this aud
was cut down at an age which most
men are hardly yet fully equipped for
the struggle OF life. Moreover, he did
this without once forgetting that he
was one of the people from whom he
rose; without once forgetting that it
was for their interest that he must
battle if he would win his own fight
forward. 1t was the same gu alities in
him which made him enemies that
made him a leader. His self-reliance,
his equipoise, his clearness of brain
and steadiness of nerve, his never-fail.
ing courage and indomitable perse-
verance, even in apparently the most
hopeless Of situations, were the
characteristics which forged for him
his own way and inspired in his
partisans that confidence admiration
indispensable to true leadership. In
his private life he was distinguished
by the same traits that shaped his
public career. As in his official SER
vice no suspicion of corruption was
ever breathed against him, SO in his
personal intercourse he was open and
straightforward.
"Mr. Goebel was a man of unim-
peached purity of private life and of
conceded professional ability. During
10 years service as Senator in the
State Legislature, no act of his except
ing what is known as the Goebel
election law had brought the least re-
proach upon him, nor any unclean
dollar had ever been charged against
him, although money to corrupt
legislation had often flowed as free as
water at Frankfort. But, in some
way he had given deadly offense to
the management of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad, and this manage.
ment felt that it must destroy him.
1t has certainly done this. But in
doing it, it has brought upon the
people of Kentucky the incalculable
wrong and dire disgrace of transac-
tions unexampled in the history Of
Republican government"

War Maxims Up to Date.

The history thus far of Great Brit
aims attempt to crush the Boer repub-
lies suggests a new version of war
maxims:
Trust in God and get the best guns.
God is apt to be on the side of the
strongest positions.
Uniforms do not make soldiers, nor
does gold lace make generals.
After raid prepare against an in
vasion.
Thrice is he armed who can shoot
straight at long range.
To underrate your enemy Is even
more foolish than to overrate yourself.
Men who prepare for battle by say
ing prayers and singing psalms must
not be despised because they seldom
take bath.
Fighting colored races who wear
only a breech-cloth or paJamas is a
different proposition from lighting
Dutchmen who wear homespun trous-
ers and carry Mausers.
