Negroes On Confederate Roll.

A Columbia special says: Confeder-
ate veterans are considerably exercised
over the fact that there are several ne
groes on the pension rolls. These men
have been indorsed for pensions by
the county boards, and unless the
state board is shown that they are not
entitled to pensions they cannot
be stricken off. Some camps have
passed resolutions of protest. In one
instance the colored pensioner was a
free negro; in another he was
slave, but lost his leg in following his
IN aster in battle.

WASHINGTON IS GLAD.

A Washington special says: The de-
termination of the Russian govern
ment not to press to a conclusion ne
gotiations begun some time ago with
the Chinese government in regard to
Manchuria, has naturally given great
satisfaction to the government OF the
United States.
President Mckinley is understood
Z to recognize in this act of the czar
another proof of his sincere regard for
the harmony of the powers now er-
gagged in negotiations in China and
his determination to do nothing
to impede the speedy and sat-
sisfac.ory conclusion of these negotis-
tions. In his view it is an act worthy
of the enlightened sovereign who ini-
fiated the conference of The Hague.
The government of the United States
is especially gratiied by this termina-
ton of the late complication, as it has
constantly been in harmony with that
of Russia in all the main points of our
policy in China.
It is the belief generally entertain
ed in government and diplomatic cir
cles in Washington that no motive can
be assigned for this resolution of the
czar, as it was clearly within the discre-
ton of Russia to pursue whatever
course that government thought best
for its interests, and it may be said
with absolute certainty that nothing
in the way of pressure or of combina-
ton mas been put upon the Russian
government to induce this result. It
is true the government of the United
States on the first of March made
known its views of the matter and
communicated them with entire frank
ness to all the powers inter-
ested, has been made to Russia or to
China.

Skinned the Hard Words.

"While was in practice" said Judge
Gates of Kansas City. II was before
the supreme court on one occasion.
While waiting for my case to be called
I listened to a lawyer from the south
eastern part Of the state arguing his
case. He was at least 6 feet Z inches
tall and had a voice so deep that when
he spoke it seemed like the rumbling
of Niagara. I will read he said,
from a work with which your honors
are no doubt familiar-Blackston
''The judges did not smile, although
there was a decided twinkle in their
eyes as they glanced at each other.
The man read few lines and then
said: There is reference here, your
honors, to a footnote by Lord Gran
vile. l would have your honors pay
particular attention to this note be-
cause it is by Lord Granville
'"The judges waited eXpectantly. The
lawyer held the book in front of him,
glanced at it two or three times and
then coughed as many times in rather
an embarrassed manner. Everybody
waited for several seconds. Finally
~ said: Your honors, 1 see on closer
inspection that this footnote is in Lat
in, so 1 reckon I'd better skip that"

Her Chef From Paris.

IAN American woman" says the Bos-
ton Journal, "who lived in Paris was
famous for her cook. Her dinners were
popular and celebrated and the CONVEX
sation was largely a tribute to the chef.
The day came when she should return
to the United States. Could the cook
be persuaded to go with her? What!
Leave Paris? Neverv But she offered
him salary that was incredibly, pre-
posterously high, and he went with
her.
"She had hardly settled her house
when she gave a dinner party that she
hoped would be sensational. Not one
dish was fit to be eaten. The hostess,
almost hysterical, after the gloomy
meal was over rushed to the kitchen
to find out whether the cooks art was a
matter of Partisan atmosphere, and
then, and only then, she discovered
that her famous chef had never cooked
a dinner for her in Paris; that he had
got it all from a world famous boule-
ward restaurant"

Her Brilliant Inspiration.

That the proverbial absentminded
professor is sometimes ably abetted by
his wife is illustrated by story told
of Professor Bunsen. One evening
about tlis usual hour for retiring he
took it into his head to run over to the
club just as he and madam were re-
turning from an evening call.
'But," said the lady, Il must have
the front door locked before 1 retire."
This emergency staggered the pro-
fessor, and as be looked bewildered at
his wife the lady, seized with an in
spiration, continued:
'I'll 60 in and lock the door and
throw you the key from the window"
This programme was carried out, and
when he reached the club the professor
related the incident to a friend as evil
dence of his wife's unusual sagacity.
The friend greeted the story with
roar of laughter.
"And why. my dear professor" he
said, Ibid you not simply admit your
wife, lock the door from the outside
and come away"
'"True," calculated the learned man
of science; 1--WE never thought of that"
The climax of the incident was reach
ed an hour later when, returning home,
the professor discovered that the lady
in her excitement had thrown out the
wrong key.

'"All well-all happy-lots

report from the monkey cage

the keepers began dosing the

One day a keeper accident
