Flour City. From May until Septem-
ber, inclusive, it is patronized by peo-
pie representing nearly every nation
on this mundane sphere, and many
and various are the incidents, humor-
GUS and otherwise, that transpire there
daily.
To attempt minute description of
the numerous incidents that happen
hourly would be futile, so 1 will en-
,deavor to portray one in particular
that attracted my attention, although
in reality it happened on a Falls car
nearing the city terminus. After
spending most enjoyable day at the
Falls with friend, visiting the Old
Soldiers Home, Fort Smelling and
other attractive places, we finally con-
cluded to return to the city. 1t being
very late in the evening the cars city
ward bound were packed to their ut

The Chair.

A chair is good thing to have and
especially so when you have been COM
PEELED to set on backless bench so
long that you have forgotten how it
feels to rest upon chair. Now l have
always longed for chair, have had
visions of the easy, restful attitude
that could be assumed by fitting said
chair against the wall and placing my
feet upon the bed. Well thank the
Lord I've got chair at last. It came
last night and as soon as my lonely
supper was DER, I proceeded to assume
the restful attitude spoken of, and I
assure you it was immense until-welI
I don't know exactly how it did hap
pen. Any way my briar root had just
got pulling well and 1 was luxuriousIy
comfortably when, "Blinkity Blink" L
landed in heap upon the floor, scraped
all the whitewash off the wall with my
head, barked the skin off my left
elbow, "sprained" my right wrist, tried
to punch the cuspidor through the floor
with my left knee, hurt my back and
got crick in my rubber" Oh yes!
chairs are good things, providing you
glue the legs to the floor and haven't
forgot how to use them. BONES.

The saying that Paris is France con-
tains, of course, only half truth. No
metropolis can fully exhibit the life of
people. But, on the other hand, it is
doubtless true that no other capital
city is so representative as Paris of all
that characterizes the nation; and this
overshadowing Importance of the
French capital has never been so
marked as in the last years of our clos
ing century. But, during the Exposi-
tion period, Paris becomes also a rem
devious and center of ideas for the
whole world. The Exposition, then,
may be conceived of as the City of
Paris occupying itself with the enter
Jainment of sort of congress of the
nations with gracious display by all
of things interesting and characteristic
that illustrate their history and con-
temporary life; nothing being done in
the spirit of rivalry, but all in a gener-
Gus spirit of fkindliness and mutual
helpfulness, From ""Paris and the, Ex-
position of 1900" by Albert Shaw, in

views for June. q ! 'l' 9

Cn1S AZURE ne now repeated his former
run, was then guided to dry goods
box near street corner, upon which
he was placed and commanded to sing
songs; dance and make speeches. A
more ludicrous spectacle than that of
this gullible freshman could hardly be
imagined; and as crowd of fully one
hundred men, women and children
were also assembled, the yelling, hoot-
ing and cheering became deafening.
He was "circus" in himself.
"Shake hands, old boy" cried a
leader, as the last speech was con-
cluded, "give us the grip;" and at this
stage every man in the crowd was Sc
cretly directed to step up. That Mr..
"Freshy" did not lose his arm during
this ordeal is certainly a wonder.
Four ten-foot ropes were now
brought forth, one tied to each arm
and one to each leg, and as four boys
OF the club took position back of the
victim and pulled in any slack rope
guide ran ahead, leading the freshman
over rocks and hills. The poor dupe,
although ready to drop with exhaus-
tion, was forced on till they reached a
spot along the river shore. Being now
informed that one ceremony was yet
to be performed, he must be baptized,
a mock ceremony was delivered with
all the magniloquence of an impressive
rite, after which, without making any
fuss about it, they threw him bodily
into the river.
Several times in the course of his
initiation, he was about to quit; but
in each instance, little flattery served
to bring on renewed courage. How in
the world he now managed to hold his
composure was miracle to me. Prob
ably he was too fatigued. and chilled.
L cannot believe that the laughter,
yells and powwow of the crowd would
lead him to take such trick good
naturedly.
Drenching wet, his long hair hanging
about his face in shreds and his limbs
shaking like an aspen leaf, was the
sight he presented as the boys who
held the ropes drew him out. Un-
bandaging his eyes, they Immediately
pulled him in dog trot to the club
headquarters where, after rubbing him
down carefully and filling him with
hot drinks, they put him to bed, for he
was more dead than alive.
From seven until eleven o'clock this
gullible freshman suffered for what he
believed to be initiation to honors, and
not until the next morning did they
apprlse him that it was all a joke.
Exactly what he did when they told
him / never learned. RUDOLPH.

wishing to add insult to injury, some
egregiOus imbecile endowed with
diabOlical afflatus, said I must be
thirsty after my goatestrian exercise,
and proposed giving me nectar that
would be balm to my mental and phys
ical lacerations. 1 thanked him for
being so considerate and was partak-
ing freely of the aforesaid nectar,
when the bandage was removed from
my eyes and beheld, not a loving cup,
but a vessel which was never intended
for drinking purposes.
However, as was not killed during
the initiation, 1 was declared a full
fledged Neighbor; but l never saw my
Prince Albert again. Well, as I have
remained very volatile corpse up to
the present time, my relict has been
unable to realize on that policy, which
is to be regretted, as she has been ex-
pending the three thousand dollars,
figuratively speaking, on my cenotaph
for the last ten years.
And now, wishing to be revenged on
the M. w. A. for trying to make my
wife eligible to that three thousand,
L will tell their grip and password. If
you wish to attend meeting, go to
their camp and when you encounter
the sentry, he will say "a bas Hogan"
Then place your right arm around his
neck, letting his windpipe rest in the
hollow of your arm, pull his head we'll
back, insert your left hand in his
pocket, extract the contents and whis-
per in his left ear, "DUM VIVIMUS
-VIVAMUS."
For we'll be long time dead.

Bon S0ir.

Some time between the oyster stews
of 'e9 and the ice cream of 80, was
prevailed upon to desert the state of
single blessedness' and take up my
abode in that of conjugal wretchedness.
Immediately after we we're pronounced
man and wife the participant of my joys
and author of my woe importuned me
to add to my burden life insurance
policy in her favor, intimating that by
so doing I would not, in case of my
sudden demise, leave my family-con-
sisting of herself and Fido-in desti-
tute circumstances, and her an incon-
solable widow. AS did not wish an
eclipse of the first quarter of the
honeymoon promised to comply with
her request. After the aforesaid moon
had gone through its customary evo-
luton, made diligent inquiry and
ascertained that for the least expendi-
ture the prospective cadaver could
leave the expectant widow indepen-
dent of the Associated Charities by
joining the Modern Woodmen of
America. Therefore I made applica-
tion for membership, and being eligi-
BILE physically, though non compos
mentis, L was accepted, and this is
what happened:
On the appointed night repaired to
the M. w. A. rendezvous for initiation,
having previously fortified with little
elixer. Arriving on time 1 was re-
ceived and cordially welcomed by the
Worthy Usher, who then asked if
were prepared to encounter the dan
gers of trip through Hogan's Alley :?
Being answered in the affirmative, he
divested me of my coat. 1 asked him
what he intended doing with it, and
was answered thus:
"Ma fol mon ami, je ne sais quoi."
"But you will return it will you
not?"
"Honi soft qui NAL y pense," he
replied. i
Then 1 was compelled to inhabit a
Weary Willie garment, bucked and
gagged, metaphorically speaking, hus-
tied into large room, walked around
ten or fifteen miles, scared nearly out
of my remaining senses by falling over

AUTUMN.

How softly sweet the autumn air
The dying woodland fills.
And Nature turns from restful care.
To anti-bilious pills.
The dOve-eyed kline upon the moor
Look tender meek and sad,
While from the valley comes the roar,
Of the matchless liver-pad.
How sadly drOOpS the dying day.
AS night springs from the glen,
And moaning twilight seems to say
The old mans drunk again.
The merry milkmaid's sOmbre song
Re-echOes from the rocks,
AS silently she trips along,
With holes in both her socks.
And, close behind, the farmers boy
Thrills forth his simple tunes,
And slips beside the maiden coy,
In his brand new pantalOons. .it'' ..

confirm the description given by a

the tation, In every detail her tall,
gaunt figure, her big, white cap, her
stealthy step, her quiet comings, her
noiseless goings.

the doorway, her great cap well ad-

folded, tucked securely into the waist
band of her full dress skirt--pausing a
moment on the threshold, looking anx-
iously about, then STOPPING and run
ing her finger along the edge of the
mopboard, to see if perchance a specln
of dust had found lodgment there.
Proceeding to the workroom, she glanc-

STOPPING over it and motioning with
her hands as if in the act of covering
the Goals with ashes.

A Chinese story.

NJ. MoDnier, the well known French
Asiatic traveller, vouches for the truth
If the following story Of how his
friend, Hop Sing, Travelled oriental
and man of means and refinement, was
On one occasion sorely victimized. Hop
Sing lived in the street of the roasted
corn, as unsavory and as Ill paved q
street as any in all Peking The local
mandarin was an intimate friend of
his, and Hop Sing availed himself of
this friendship to press the mandarin
to have the street repaved. Certainly.
At once. The men would be at work
on it before Hop Sing had returned
home. A week passed, then another
visit, and so on, until, in despair, Hop
Sing determined to have the street re-
paired at his own expense. The work
was satisfactorily completed.
The surprise of Hop Sing was only
equaled by his indignation when, on
awaking one morning. he found gang
of coolies upheaving the newly tagged
street. His surprise grew when he
heard from the mandarin's own lips
that the men were there at his orders.
You see, my dear friend" said the
mandarin, Il am expecting the head
Inspector round here in a few days.
Now, if he were TO see the beautiful
pavement you have laid down in your
street he would come to the conclusion
that there was money about and he
would assuredly bleed every vein in
NV body. This would mean my ruin.
Don't you see why your pavement
really must come up? 1t cost me one
fortune TO secure my post l don't
want TO spend another in keeping it."
