AN ENGLISH SUBJECT
Has Fallen Int Distrss. and wiil Ne
Deported.

The case OF an Engiishman. who has
been In this country for only snort
time and who has fallen into distress,
and who Ia not bound to be supported by
Uncle Sam, was one OF the matters that
sought the attention OF United States
Marshal Saunders and British Vice Con-
sui Heating yesterday. City Marshal
Odlin Of Lewiston informed Marshal
Saunders that they had In custody In
that city q tramp who had given his
name as Herbert Kent, 70 years old. Kent
said that be was an English subject and
that he had come from England about
i've weeks ago on the steamer DivoniAn
which arrived In Boston. As the tramp
was without means Marshal Odlin
thought that he was not legally In this
country. Marshal Saunders hunted up
Inspector OF immigration Elliott, who
stated that the cass was not under his
jurisdiction. Then Marshal Saunders
conferred with Consul keating, who
communicated with the British consul
general in Boston. The latter At once
set out to investiga and found that Kent
had arrived in Boston on the Diyonian.
Kent was brought to this cisy on the
Pullman train this morning. He Will
be turned over TO Consul keatiDg who
will then place him aboard the steamer
Wiliowdens or the Thomson limo which
sails for London this morning and on
which the tramp will be deported.

"He was a scottish sort OF chap, but
played a tolerably fair game of seven
up," said an ex-shertf of Pike county.
Pa. I'VE were sitting in. up at Lacka-
wanna, playing for quarter a corner. |
knew he was dead gone on a girl up at
the Narrows, and so remarked casually
early in the game:
Every time fellow gets the Jack OF
trumps in seven up it's sure sign his
girl is thinking OF him.
Then sort of watched the young fel-
low, and the very next hand he picked up
noticed his eyes light up and real nice
flush OF pleasure spread over his face. So
/ led out, and, sure as pollywogs, l
caught his jack. as / thought maybe l
would. And it worked so well all the
evening that | had a whole lot OF his
quarters when we quit. But he seemed
pleased and went up to the Narrows on
the next train."-New York Sun.

had gone but a few steps. she was shot In
the fieshy part OF the arm by bullet

After the shooting, Miss Talbot rushed

that she was to be married ON Saturday

GOOD AND BAD NEWS.
A Lesson From NRpoIeon's Method of
Dealing with Each Kind.

Dealing with Each Kind.
Napoleon gave this order to his secre-
tary:
During the night enter my chamber as
seldom as possible. Do not awake me
when you have any good news to COM
municate: with that there Is no hurry.
But when you bring bad news rouse me
instantly, for then there is not a moment
to be lost"
In this order OF the great general. great
schemer. great gambler, great adventurer.
great statesman. great lawmaker. to his
secretary there is a valuable lesson for all
the generals. schemers, gamblers, adven-
turers statesmen and lawmakers OF the
world, and a lesson still more important
for every little human being, for every
man of business.
The feeblest of us is reused to activity.
to initiative, by good news. We are
ready for It. We want 10 be walked up
to hear 1t.
But when bad news comes we don't
want to he walked. We pull the bed
clothes over our heads and try to shut it
out. We close our eyes and go to sleep
again. And while we are asleep the bad
news finishes the brd work which Il had
begun.
Jhe famous OLD picture SHOWS tne east
ern despot climbing on his couch, gazing
out across the country. On the ground
beside him lie headless corpses of unfor-
tunate creatures. messengers Of evil tid-
ings" These he beheaded as they reach
ed him. And his day was quickly ended.
Had Napoleon occupied the place OF
that eastern numbering potentate you
would have found him sitting OF the edge
of his oriental bed. with bare legs, di-
sheveled hair and animated face. The
bearers of evil news would have been
alive and In turn interrogated with pas
sionate interest.
With the quickness of human thought
plans to counteract the bad news would
have been formed, and the next shifting
Of the scenes would have shown Napo-
leon sound asleep. refusing to be awaken
ed. while the bearers of good tidings stood
cooling their heels outside.
Study Napoleon's order to his secre-
tary. Apply it to your own lives Be
cool In the face OF good news Don't
waste your energies congratulating your
self on 1t. Save your strength and re-
sources and vitality for bad news. Go
out to meet 1t boldly and give orders that
will admit it to you even when sleeping.
