An Oniclnl Mrs. Malaprop.

There Is n certain city official. who,
although capable enough In his busl-
ness. Is notorious for his lack of knowl-
edge of the Kings English and for his
fondness for big words.
He came to his office one misty,
muggy day, and, noticing that the air
was foul, called out to one of his sub
ortflnates:
"Open that window and 'putrefy' the
airr
On another occasion, when called
upon to take action for an infractlon
OF one of the city ordinances. he was
asked where he got his information;
"Oh! 1 got word through unani-
nous letter that this work was being
carried on superstltiously."
Speaking of his horse. fine trotter.
which he drives almost daily on the
Speedway, he remarked: IL can't drive
out for some time because Jack (the
horse) has n spasm on his Off hind leg"
On another occasion, speaking of n
severe storm in which he had been
caught. he said: 1T vas a perfect

Bill.

I'm goln' t git that gal r know the

"You kin git r." said Bill, with an
emphasis on the "you," because he
thought Nat was so superior that he
might have anything he went after.
At first Daddy Tiflin, Nanny Tifiin
and Sophie herself were inclined TO
flavor" Bill He was handsomer
steadier and came from the county
which Tiffins called Home" But he
never got within hailing distance OF
the lovely Sophie. Nat was so all
fred eloquent that he talked the whole
family into loving him before Bill
had summoned enough nerve to
squeeze the girls fingers. Everybody,
Including Nat, knew that Bill was
hard hit when his partner left him
night after night to WOO the buxom
Ohio girl, but nobody except Bill him
self knew that the biggest sacrifice of
his unselfish life began the night when
Nat said "Bill, I'm goin' Z git that gal
r know the reason why"
There might have been n reason
why" but Bill was not that kind OF a
partner. Nat married Sophie all right
and Bill was at the wedding, sitting
round sheeplshly and wishing every
body well. He didn't even have SAND
enough to kiss the bride till MAJ
forced him TO face the music. and
then he seemed so ashamed and scared
that he went home looking quite pal,
and "done."
Nat and his bride settled in Placer
VILE till the placers seemed abou
played out, and then Bill staked hin
for n prospecting venture in the bac'
country.
But the chasm between them grew
wider. BIZ lived alone. worked hard
er. drank harder and spoke less thai
ever. Nat struck IL richer and richer
He offered to pay back to Bill all o
his money. but the silent one got an
CRY and swore that II wasn't a loan
but a gift, and added:

his long white hair and beard, his I'm
penetrable loneliness and utter disre-
gard for all mankind. He lived on the
bar near Placervllle so long that only
the old d-timers knew how he happened
to set up his cabin there and linger
alone while more progressive miners

placer mines altogether TO seek their
fortunes in buried mines Of quartz

made friends faster than Bill. The
latter talked to nobody but Nat, and
for two years nothing came between

and even when smarter gold seekers
drifted restlessly away from the old
bar Bill and Nat bade them goodbye
without a sign OF yearning for new
fields Of work or adventure. They
had built a cabin, and the place had
become home TO them. When Nat
was sick Bill nursed him. When Nat
swore, Bill blasphemed In sympathy.

To Get Best R..uIt. From sefrIgerators.

There are many people who from a
false idea Of economy fail TO get the
best results from the use OF ice and
:efrlgerators. A common mistake is
getting a small piece OF ice every day
)r every other day. instead of filling
the ice chamber two or three times
a week. The small piece Of ice cannot
reduce the temperature sufficiently.
and the result is that each new piece
melts rapidly and the food cannot be
kept long 1t will be found at the end
Of the season that the cost Of ice and
waste of food have been much greater
than IL the ice chamber had been kept
allied. 1.-The Ladies' Home Journal.

SOCIETY

Perhaps it is due to Lent, although that season Is not very generally ob- served in Phoenix social circles, and perhaps it is due to mere ennui. super induced by warm weather, but it is certainly fact that society matters of an important nature have been few during the past week. What was lack ing in quantity, however was made up in quality, at the only large event of the week, the reception given by Judge and Mrs. C. r. Ainsworth, Miss Aims worth and Mr. Frank Ainsworth, on Thursday evening" O'Neil hall never looked prettier with its elaborately handsome decorations of smilaX, palms, potted plants, bunting and col ored lights. over 300 invitations had been issued and there were very few regrets From S:30 until 9:30 occurred the reception and the balance of the evening was devoted to dancing.

The director of the official stenogra- phers of the reichstag, Edward Engel, who has charge of the reports of all the emperor's speeches, states that from 1889 to 1900 Emperor William de- livered more than 7S9 discourses, all of which are inscribed in the official re- ports. He is said to speak with great rapidity, pr1nouncing 275 syllables in a minute, and sometimes 300; that is to say five syllables a second.
