THOSE ANGEL CHILDREN.
How a Little Girl Entertains ed a Caller on
Her Sister.

How a Little Girl Entertained a Caller on
Her Sister.
When young Sellshoes called the
other evening Miss Ohfudge, in q fan-
nelette wrapper, was reading an in
tensely absorbing novel in her room
upstairs, and so she sent her angel
sister, Pansy, aged six, downstairs to
inform Mr.. Sellshoes that she'd be
down in a few moments. The angel
sister carried the inform alton to MI
Sellshoes in the parlor, and then how
cred around, waiting for IN opportun-
ity to deliver herself Of q few bright
liILle sayings of childhood.
"Mr. Sellshoes," she remarked,
after a while, in a shy manner, twist
ing her hands eoyly, have you got
many bureau drawers where you live
and do you hunt in them much?"
"Well-er-I Dunno replied Mr..
Sellshoes, hesitatingly. "Why?"
ooh, nuthin'," replied the angel
child, "'cept that sis she began I hunt,

drawers fr a piece O. stickin' plaster

you had t. rubber an hunt through all
your bureau drawers an then you
wouldn't be so willin' t. put folks out
30. Do you often have t. hunt through
your bureau drawers?"
Young Sellshoes flushed slightly,
then paled slightly and made an in
audible reply. The angel child pre-
tended to fix the rug in front Of the
CRATE fire for a moment, and then she
opened up again.
"Oh, Mr.. Sellshoes," she exclaimed,
what a funny hat you must wear? Do
let me see it, won't you?"
"Why, it's just like all other hats"
replied young Sellshoes, in a mufled,
choked sort of tone. "Why do you
wish to e it,"
20, nuthin'," replied the angel child,
turning around and drumming the pi-
ano, "'cept that sis she says that you
talk through your hat, an I thought It
must be a funny-looking hat"
Young Sellshoes twisted some more
in his seat, and bali rose to go, but,
thinking better of it, again stared hard
out of the window. The angel child
drummed on for a couple of minutes,
and then she once more wheeled about
on the stool.
"And, oh, Mr.. Sellshoes," she pratt.
tied, in her sweet, innocent little
voice, please, sir, tell me what you
won't do?"'
won't do?" repeated young Sell

I understand what you"
WELL" cut in the lovely little pratt

wen she was talkin' bout you, He
won't do jes' like that, an

The rest of it was drowned in the
~tum-tumming of the angel child's
angel little paws on the piano.
Then young Sellshoes went out into
the clammy night without waiting fol-

DOWu Ouu VI uNOuus
| Washington, March 4.-Col. Rood
welt WAS to-day inducted into the d
fee of Vice President of the Unite.
States. The ceremony was thorough
~ democratic, yet in it's simplicity j
was profoundly impressive.
The historic Senate chamber wal
superb in it's white and gold beauty
but was without decorations of any
kind. Not even the stars and stripes
were displayed officially, although a.
the last words of the oath of Office
fell from the lips of the stern silver
haired senator from Maine, and Vice
President Roosevelt fervently grasped
his hand, the galleries were splashed
with the national colors, many silk
hand flags fiuttering over the heads
of the visitors.
On the floor of the chamber, intent
upon the ceremony, We're men whose
names are household words IN every
city. The President of the United
States was thpre senator's runrasan
+.t;ra, n.,,,t,,., .s -.
-'''e'' ''e'''' u supreme cou'''
governors OF many States, members
of the diplomatic corps, army and
navy officers, and men distinguished
in every walk in life were passive unr-
Elephants in the ceremony.
The galleries presented a spectacle
of marvellous beauty. the hundreds
of brilliantly attired women lendinu
a color scene to the almost somber
surroundings.
The senate was in session construc-
lively. having beeu so since IL a. m
Saturday, although recesses taken ut
intervals rendered the mental and
physical strain endurable
Early in the morning the galleries
had been cleared by an executive SEES
sion and they were not opened again
until 10 O'Clock. and then only to adj
NIT those who held cards of admis-
sion to the capitol and to places re-
served for them in the galleries.
Rapidly the galleries began To fill.
and long before the hour for the cere-
mony people were throneing in every
pluce and crowded to the doors.
Among the first persons of note TO
enter the galleries were ladies' and at
taches OF the diplomatic CORPS not
entitled to the floor of the senate.
Lady Pauncefote, with three OF the
British embassy ladies. was early on
hand, as was also Mrs. WI. wife of
the Chinese minister. Another attrac-
tive figure in the dip.ornatic gallery
was Nine. Taknhira. wife of the Japn-
nese minister. The gowns OF the two
latter we're marvels of beauty.
At 11:4O q. m. the vice president
elect arrived at the capitol. Hewent
to the vice presidents room.
Shortly after 11.5O O'Clock. escorted
by Major General Corbin, Mrs. Nc
Kinley reached the executive gallery,
by the members of her
house party. She was assisted to a
seat which had been reserved for her.
Almost simultaneously with the
party Mrs. Roosevelt and
her friends, principally relatives, en-
tered, accompanied by her children,
and was escorted to front seats in the
gallery reserved for them lust oppo-
site those occupied by Mrs. Mckinley.
The exchange of greetings between
Mrs. Mckinley and Mrs. Roosevelt
was noted by all.
