PERSONAL.

The Sultan of Sulu is a little man,
with no more striking personality than
is given him by his costume. When
standing he hardly comes above the ell
bcw of the average American.
Mime. Severine. the editor Of La
Fronde, the newspaper in Paris conducted
by women, is a power in the French
capital and she is absolutely independ-
ent and original in her ways of thinking
She has villa in the village of Pierre
fonds, whittier she retires for a day or
two when the pressure of her literary
work threatens to overpower her strength
The new Italian ambassador, MARQUIS
Obizzi Malaspina di Barbonari, is a man
who is sure to attract attention at the
American capital He has had mete-
ORIG career and will be the youngest of
the ambassadors accredited to this capt.
tai and one of the youngest men in the
entire corps. Less than FIVE years ago
the Marquis was an undersecretary of
the embassy in Washington, under Bar
on Fava.
Walter Campbell, who has just pub
lished a book of humorous poems, illus
trated by the Princess Louise, is said
to be one of the best amateur reciters
and Scotch story-tellers in British So
ciety Always great favorte of the late
Queen, he would bring a smile to her
lips at every moment with his quaint
tales his limitations of the peasantry' s
ways and doings-copied first hand from
real life-their shrewd, canny sayings
and their homely mother wit.

Meanest Man in Chicago.

AS one of the elevators in the big Of
fee building touched bottom, and the
door opened to let its load of passengers
out, short, dumpy, perspiring man with
cropped beard and protuberant stom-
ach tried to crowd his way in, regard
less of the fifteen or twenty persons that
were trying to make their exit, says the
Chicago Tribune.
Don't be in a hurry impatiently ex-
claimed he of the squat figure. I've
been waiting here five minutes"
You haven't been waiting five sec
onds," retorted the elevator boy. IF you
had been you know, you could have
gone up in one of the other cars
That's all right" said the other. still
pushing and elbowing his way in May
be you know"
II think 1 do
why is it," asked a man who had
been iattened up against the side of the
elevator. that it's always somebody of
his build, and atmospheric displacement
that acts the pork in a place of this
kind?"
Nobody seemed to know. The generali-
cation may have been too sweeping.
There are hogs of all degrees of obesity
and tenuity.
The imprisoned passengers succeeded
finally in extricating themselves.
The man with the stomach took possess
sion of the corner furthest from the door.
In a few moments the elevator started
for the upward voyage with a full list
of passengers.
''Second-hoorw shouted one of them.
1t was the parsonage with the stom-
ach.
With a series of commissions he fought
his way out and stepped off at second.
He was followed by a man who looked
as if some secret grief were preying upon
his mind.
'Comrade," said the latter. I'D like
to speak word with you.
The other turned around.
Il had intended to go to the eleventh
floor" resumed the man of funereal as
pect, but my business is with you"
What do you want?'
It'll take me only about minute to
tell you Several days ago, when 1 was
sitting cat-a-cornered in a crowded street
car, man gave me a medal. He said it
was given to him by a stranger because
he had monopolized the narrow strip of
shade at the left edge of the sidewalk on
hot day. And now
whats all that got to do with me?'
Nothing, only that medal belongs to
the Meanest Man in Chicago. I have
carried it three or four days without hav-
ing any right to it. 1t belongs to you,
sir!"
With a dextrous motion he slipped into
the waistcoat pocket of the squatty-per-
sonage a fiat, round piece of galvanized
iron with an inscription stamped upon it
and bolted down the nearest stairway,
looking immensely relieved.

one Way to Dispose of a Bill.

There has been considerable said
about the per cent. of fare the conductor
thinks belongs to him over and above his
salary; and some very witty things have
been said about it. Even the Broadway
back platform philosopher has his digs
at Them said a local professional man
the other day. according to the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer
Il once heard of a fellow, much under
the influence of liquor, who got on the
train to go home after enjoying himself
at a picnic. lie slipped into a seat and
fell asleep. After the train pulled out
the conductor came into the car and call
ed Tickets! The picnicker was too weary
to respond and so the conductor poked
him up a little. The fellow reused up.
fumbled in one pocket. then another, till
finally he pulled out a very ragged bill
and handed it to the conductor. After
examining 1t carefully the latter said
Say. my friend, see here, 1 can't use
this
THE passenger pushed himself up on
his elbow and remarked: What's (hic)
that you shay?'
II can't use thi: the conductor re-
piled.
We'll, give 1t Chico to the comp'ny
zen,' remarked the weary but generous
hearted man, dropping back into the seat,
confident he would be put off at his des-
tination."

A Lucky Pun.

A story is told of an English clergy
man who owed his appointment to a rich
living to a lucky pun, says the New York
Tribune. He was tutor to the son of
a nobleman, and had not long taken or
ders, when he attended the funeral of
the rector of the parish in which the no
bleman's seat was situated.
The father of his pupil was patron of
the living, and was also present at the
funeral of the deceased rector. There was
a young clergyman present also whose
grief was so demonstrative that the noble
patron was much affected by the sight,
and asked II the young man was a son
of the deceased gentleman.
"Oh, dear no, my lord-no relation at
ALL" said the tutor.
mo relationr exclaimed the nobleman,
in a surprised tone.
None. my lord; he is the curate, and
l think he is not weeping for the dead,
but for the living"
His lordship. who was something of a
wit and a cynic himself. was so delight
ed with the bon mot that he conferred
the living upon the ready punster.

MIR. duBIGNoN NOT CANDIDATE.

1t is settled that Mr.. duBignon will
not be a candidate for the guberna-
torial nomination. He makes the an
nouncement in the Morning News in
another column that the advice of his
physician is against his undertaking
the burdens of a political campaign.
This will be very generally regretted
in the state, because it was practically
agreed by the party leaders, and by
the rank and file of the party, too, for
that matter, that Mr.. duBignon should
have the nomination for Governor to
succeed Gov. Gambler. and he would
have been the next Governor, since a
nomination was equivalent to an cleo
ton. Mr.. duBignon's withdrawal will
also be regretted for the reason that
he is deservedly popular. and for the
further reason that the intelligent and
faithful work which he has done for
the party entitled him to the gu
bernatorial nomination. We feel sure
that throughout the state there will be
a feeling of sorrow that he is unable to
take the reward which he has won. and
hope that he will speedily recover
his health. not only because of the
kindly regard which is entertained for
him, but also because he is a useful
citizen and that he may avail himself
of other opportunities for political
preferment.
But does Mr.. duBignOn's withdrawal
take the nomination away from South
Georgia? We do not think SO. Party
leaders have been saying for months
that the gubernatorial - nomination
should go to South Georgia this time.
There are men in this section of the
state who are wen qualified for the po-
sition. Some of them are too modest
to make their influence felt or to take
any steps for their own advancement.
1t is probable, however, that long be-
fore the nominating convention meets
several candidates from the southern
part of the state will be before the
people and their qualifications dis
cussed.
1t may be that there will be efforts
made in behalf of candidates in the
northern part of the state. If so the
party leaders should discourage them,
If, as is understood, there is a tacit
agreement that the southern section
shall have the honor. 1t would be bet
ter from every point of view that
South Georgia should be given the
honor as a recognition of her right to
it than that she should have to make
a fight for it,
