A New Mount Vernon Joke.

The attitude of the black man for
ready replies is known almost the
world over. If he cannot think OF a
correct answer, even approximately,
he proceeds to say something to i'm
press you with the fact that he knows
what he is talking about. Not long
ago one Of the laborers or farm hands
employed on the Mount Vernon estate
was working close to the roadside and
visitor who had come to pay his
tribute at the shrine of the Father of
his Country came along. Seeing the
colored laborer, he asked him playfully
if he ever worked for George Washing
ton. The laborer was we'll along in
years, but still quick in answer.
"No, sah," he said, "but All dun
used to wuk fob some OBJ his family
an All dun seen Mistah George Often"
"You say you've seen him often,
uncle" quizzed the visitor.
Yes, sab, All have"
"Then you must have seen him
when he took that famous hack at the
cherry tree" the visitor persisted.
Uncle was stumped for once, but
only for q moment. "Yes, sah," he
answered, with face that Immediately
frightened mp. eyes, sab, All sho'
did. Ah dun druv that hack musself."

Not So Easily Answered.

"Who would you rather be, if you
were not yourself?" has long been a
fascinating question. There have
been many clever answers to it, the
happiest, perhaps, being Mr.. Choate's
-" Mrs. Choate's second husband!"
1t remained for q wise and brilliant
Frenchman to select and adjust as his
choice varied career. "Who would
I rather be, if were not myself? Till
thirty, q woman, till sixty, soldier;
till eighty, q cardinalw The most
striking Characteristic of that choice
is its intuition in regard to the happi-
ness Of young womanhood. In every
station of life the young maiden has
joys far beyond those Of the men, OF
of the older women of her class. Let
her be as unseifish as she may be, she
yet retains q certain romantic bold
upon the fealty OF the race. Her per.
sonal charms may enhance the hom-
age, but they do not create it. Lack
of beauty or brains may lesson the
tribute, but they can not prevent it.
Like the women Of all times, our
modern young women finds keen sat
isfaction in her power. Is it not also
true that she realizes more clearly
than her sex has ever before realized
that privilege always involves RESPONSE
bility-that noblesse obligef

Two Trusts and the Wasc.Earners.

The American Tin-Plate Company
obtained in the Dingley tariff a mono
poly-sheltering duty of 65 per cent,
on an article of universal use. 1t
promptly advanced prices to about the
full amount OF the protection"
This Tin.P Plate Trust received from
the Standard Oil Trust an order for
l 100000 boxes of tin.plates, con-
ditioned upon the price being no
higher than that of the Welsh mills.
The Standard Oil Trust is protected
by countervailing duty on refined
Russian petroleum, the only sort that
could compete with it in this market.
1t gets rebate of all duties paid upon
tin receptacles used in its export
trade. 1t is also protected by high
duties on all its by-products-naptha,
benzine, aniline dyes, &c.
The American Tin-Plate Company
was anxious to execute this order in
the dull season. But did it sacrifice
any of its great profits to do so? Did
it appeal to the Standard Oil Trust for
a more generous bid in behalf Of
American labor? Nothing OF the sort!
1t asked that its workmen-the al
legged benefic iaries OF . tariff for monop.
oily and prosperity-should accept a
reduction of 25 per cent. in wages for
making the 100000 boxes ordered by
the 43 per cent. dividend Standard Oil
Trust! The workers have twice voted
down this proposition to accept
"pauper wages" for the benefit of these
two rich trusts, but they are now con-
sidering at Pittspurg a motion to take
the reduction in order to reopen the
mills which the trust has closed.
And this is the beautiful tariff
which Mark Hanna says is "good
enough as it u.s." and which President
Roosevelt insists has no connection
with trusts"

Made in Germany.

The late emperor OF Germany, says
the New York Times, once sent to an
aide.de-camp. Col. Malachowsky, who
was brave but poor, small portfolio,
bound like book, in which was de.
posted 500 crowns. Some time after
ward he met the officer and said TO
him:
"Ah, we'll, how did you like the new
work which sent to you"
Excessively, SIRE" replied the
Colonel; I" I read it with such interest
that expect the second volume with
impatience."
The king smiled, and, when the
officers birthday arrived, he presented
him with another portfolio, similar in
every respect to the first, but with
these words engraved upon it:
"This book is completed in two
volumes"

Miss Butner. There are forty-one In the
class, thirty-4line girls and three men,
and they go through the complex Indian
club exercises and the marching and
counter marching movements with the
ease, vigor and accuracy OF body or

step, the three-step. the schottische and
the waltz, are very popular, to Judge by
the persistency with which they are
practiced long after the two-hour lesson
Is over. The great body of the students
in this class are outsiders, and come from
as far east as Ohio and as far west as
Colorado. Miss Butner's chief aim IN
this, her first class to be given regular
normal school training, has been to instill
the idea which even at this late day seems
but dimly comprehended, that the grade
