Among the recent visitors to Wash

has been a most successful executive
officer. His tribe give him their full
confidence and are firm in their be-

their welfare. The governor also rep

An old gentleman was wandering

Presently he met senator.

And so the senator carefully piloted
the old gentleman through the devious
passageways and helped him into the
elevator and finally conducted him into
Senator Quay's room.

he to the stranger. Whom do you

The singIe-RaiI Railroad.

The first practical trial of a new
system of the single,rail railroad is
to be made at the Crystal Palace, Lon
don. The line. which is to be one and
a half miles in length. will be worked
by electricity. The difference between
this system and the prevalent type of
monorail is that the line is, on the
ground and large wheels projecting
from the middle of the carriage run
on it, while on each side of the car
riage there are safety rollers upor
guide rails. In the monorail the lint
is elevated, with the carriage over
hanging on each side.

FIRST GIRL IN 14o YEARS.
For Over a Century Only Boys Have
 Been Born In Becker Family.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 The Becker family in St. Louis is hold ing a joyous celebration over the birth of girl baby. This Is the first time in 40 years that a girl has been born in the family. For generations there has been no Becker heiress, and as a result the family is in a delirium of joy over the advent of little Mss Becker.
 The parents of the petted midget are Mrs. and Mrs. Arthur W. Becker of s0o1 Geyer avenue. The grandfather Is J. P. Becker, 1929 Hickory street He had five boys, and his father, Jacob Becker, had four male heirs. The father of Jacob Becker was Peter Becker. who was born in 1762. He had no sisters and no daughters, and none of his sons had any daughters.
 Baby Becker Is the most precious infant ,n the whole wide world, according to the members of the family. The doting pa- rents and grandparents, uncles and great uncles can find no words endearing enough to express how much they wor- ship the infant. All the relatives call every day, and some of them much often CT than once day. to view the new ar rival
 The Beckers are sturdy German stock. The old church records of the grand duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt show that the family has been a large one for more than 400 years.

Girl said 1t was too Bad and that some one ought to go to her and Warn her. After the Old Ladies and the Elders had talked the Matter over on the side, 1t was decided that Jasper was It. He was known to be kind and disin- terested and was accustomed to dealing out Good Advice. Any thing that he said would go a long Way to head off the Deal.
 Accordingly he did a Fatherly Talk to the Daughter of his Old Friend, giving her Straight Line on the Conduct of the High-Roller who was trying to warm up to her.
 She thanked him right from the Bottom of her Heart. Then she sent a Messenger Boy to hunt up the High-Roller, because she wanted to know if it was all True or merely a Cruel Slander.
 When she sprung his Record on him he leaned right over against her and cried and said that no matter what he had been, she was the one to make him Good Man. Then she stroked his Hair and begged Forgiveness and he asked her who had been Knocking and she gave the whole Snap away and begged him not to do anything Desperate. He said that whatever he did, he would do out of Love for her.
