A gentleman from one of the larger
towns of Minnesota wired to the Muir
ray Cure institute in Minneapolis, say
ing:
The Savannah morning news., 1901-11-26

Colonel ]. T. Mclaughlin. who repre-
sents the defense in the Nome con-
tempt proceedings, now being heard
before Commissioner Heacock, is a man
who has worked his way from the bot
tom round of the legal ladder TO the
position he holds, one of the leading at
torneys of Minnesota, says the san
Francisco Wave. In his early practice,
instead of selecting his clients from
among those who came to him, as he
now does. he was glad to get anything
that came along. Among the exr
periences than helped him to emerge
from the condition of briefess bar
rister he tells the following: One day
a misery old fellow came to him and
asked that the young attorney draw
up will.
How much cash have your" was the
first Interrogation.
Wall ! dunno" responded the
client, Asomewheres nigh onto thirty
thousand dollars. I reckon"
How do you wish IL divided?"
II want my old woman to have If
teen thousand dollars. and you can
say that i give and bequeath five
thousand dollars to each of my three
children" said the old man. unloading
himself of the legal phrase with much
gravity and elaboration"
What else do you wish to say?"
Say that to each of my several
nieces and nephews 1 also give the
sum of five thousand dollars"
Hold on, sir, this is work of
supererogation you have already dis
posed Of all your money. how are. they
to be given the sums you speeify?"
"Gol darn EN-, let EN- work for IL
as | did" came the answer.

wanted to talk for Himself.

Thomas j. Phillips, the defeated
Democratic candidate for Governor of
Iowa, is not an orator. says an ex-
change. He is a man of plain COM
mon sense in business affairs, with
but little education. having advanced
from miner to coal operator by his
own efforts. He was elected Mayor
of his own town several years ago and
the anecdote most widely told through
the state this year concerns his in
augbral. His friends had convinced
him that it was necessary to make a
speech when he appeared before the
Council for the first time. He demur-
red on the ground that he could not
speak in public. 1t finally ended by
his agreeing to commit to memory a
speech if it should be prepared by a
friend. Phillips was duly coached and
the eventful day arrived. He arose
and delivered the speech in a labored
manner, and it was evident to all that
it was largely an effort of memory.
But no one was prepared for what fol-
lowed.
And now said Phillips. breathing
a sigh of relief as he came to the end.
Il want to say a few words myself.

But the laughter which greeted the
remark forced the address to a con-
cluSion.

THE ATHENS RIOTS.

The importance of the riotous dem
onstrations in Athens against the pro
posed translation of the gospels into
/ modern Greek was, it seems, greatly
| underestimate outside of Greece. In
| fact. it is doubtful if even in Athens
I there was any apprehension at first
| that the demonstrations would result
I in forcing the resignation of the cab
met. The old cabinet is out. however.
notwf thstanding the fact that it was
acceptable 10 the King, and a new cab
met has been appointed. An investiga-
ton to place the responsibility for the
riots is now in order. and it is not i'm
probable that the instigators of the
trouble win be severely punished.
The cause of the riots does not yet
seem 70 be thoroughly understood in
this country. The informa ton on that
point. contained in the dispatches, has
been neither full nor definite.
One story is that an effort is being
made in Greece, particularly in Athens,
to purify the language-to get back, as
near as possible, TO classical Greek
Modern Greek is so different from an
Gent Greek that those who are able to
read and speak one find it difficult to
understand the other.
The students, of course, are pro-
fo>ldly interested in the effort to
purify the language-to remove from it
the many words and phrases from
other languages which have crept into
it--and it seems that the newspapers
are giving encouragement TO this eff
fort. 1t is claimed that if the gospels
should be translated into modern Greek
the work of purifying the language
would be made more difficult, because
the people now, in order to read the
gospels, are compelled 10 know some
thing of classical Greek. With the
gospels in modern Greek, however, the
incentive to study the ancient language
would no longer exist.
1t is said that Queen Olga is respon-
sible for the proposition to translate
the gospels into modern Greek. Her
purpose was to furnish them in Ian
guage which the soldiers and the COM
mon people could read.
GApldHdllOn VI int tlOlS 10
that there is a growing belief in
Greece that Queen Olga is interested
in substituting Russian ideas for the
national ideas of the Greeks-that, in
fact. she is trying to Russianize Greece.
She is the daughter of the Grand Duke
Constantine of Russia, and he is the
grand uncle of the present Gar. Be
cause of her Russian origin it is easy
to create the impression in Greece that
she is in sympathy with Russia's de-
signs in respect to Greece. II is not
improbable that the students at Athens
interpreted the proposed translation of
the gospels into modern Greek TO mean
that the Queen had taken that method
of opposing the movement to purify
the Greek language, and thus to inspire
the people with the Greek national
spirit and spread the Greek national
ideas. No doubt the whole matter will
be fully explained during the investi-
CATION of the riots. in which the num-
Der OF killed and wounded was large.

Academic Teaching.

You cannot comprehend" said Prof.
B. Fogg, that since plus equals 4.
therefore Plus equals 6. I will eluei-
date. You perceive that numerals are
not entities, but representative of con-
cepts?"
Yes" said the child, doubtfully,
writes Bolton Hall. in Life.
but if the aggregate of two entities
plus is assumed to constitute and
is represented by that sign, similar
signs may be adopted for the superim-
posed concepts of two representatives
more, which is s. Is that satisfac-
tory?"
The child said: ST don't understand;
and my papa says and 2 is 49,"
Said Dr. Tucker: You have no mem
tai vision, child; you are incapable of
perception.
Now, let me explain put in the
practical man; "6 minus 4 equals 3,
doesn't it? Now. that is equivalent TO
saying that plus equals 6; if we
transpose the minus sign, changing it
to plus, we have equals plus A..
Isn't that clear?"
The child began to cry.
well, maybe it was only a." sobbed
the child Il saw it on a sign"
THE trouble is" said the practical
man, that the pupil doesn't want to
understand"
Just then an ignorant man came in
Here. little one" said he, there's

How many can you maker"
