Couldn't Talk Politics.

One of the Citizens Union canvassers
had an amusing example of suspicion the
other day while canvassing in lower
East Side district. He was working in
a tenement not far from the Bowery. He
knocked at door, and after considerable
time the dooh was pushed open crack
and he felt himself being carefully scru-
tinized. Evidently the result was not un-
favorable, for presently feminine voice
queried:
"Wot you want?"
els your man in?' inquired the cam
vasser, politely.
"Vot you want of my MANI"
The Citizens Union man explained that
he wished to talk with her husband, if
he would see him.
'Vot you talk to my man about? the
wife questioned doubtfully.
The canvasser explained that he wished
to talk about politics. A look of intense
relief passed over the woman's face.
"You can't talk politics with him." she
explained.
"Why?" asked the visitor impatiently.
Because" she explained with a be-
nign smile, "he's dead."-New York

A man in New York has written to an
attorney in this city to find out if there
are many snakes in Butte. He says he
has always had desire to come to
Butte to live, but he recently heard it
was a great place for reptiles, and he
never had any particular use for them.
In the letter he says:
II heard that big snakes with copper
heads crawl up out of them big cracks
in the ground of your city and just do
as they darn please.
'They crawl everywhere-get into bed
with a fellow and eroOst on the rafters
of the houses. I don't mind a small

big ones to get too darn fresh.

please let me know II 1t is all true,
and what kind Of snake bite medicine 1
should bring with me if come.'
The attorney intends to tell the in
quirer all about the big snakes Of
Butte, and the supposed ''caverns''
whence they come. and wind up with the
following relative to an experience Of
another man which he himself proposes
to shoulder:

eeminate their wealth.
They were filled with the holy and lofty
desire to emulate Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
and rid themselves of their wealth e'er
their demise.
As a starter both purchased watches

rather good timepieces. in fact. but they
were not on speaking terms with them at

Three Boys Make Unsuccessful At
tempt to Rob Two Pedestrians.

Three youths of the Dick Turpin per-
suasion tried to hold up Richard Eddy
and John Panole near the Silver Queen
saloon, in East Park street last night.
The two men were suddenly con-
fronted with revolvers in the hands of
the holduDs and ordered to give up their
money.
Eddy had $50 in his pocket and started
to break away in an effort to save his
bank-roll.
One of the robbers struck him with the
butt end of gun and both men started
on run for the nearest corner.
One of the holdups fired a ot,which
failed to connect, and both men got out
of range around corner before another
shot could be fired.
The holdups are described as mere
youths.
