"On one OF his later birthday anniver-
saries Senator Hoar wrote to him IMr.
Evartsl and congratulated him upon his
length OF years In his reply the aged law
yer said that he reminded himself
of an old lady in New England. who had
occasion TO write TO a friend about some
matter OF trifiing Importance, and when
she had reached the end of the thirteenth
page, awakening to the fact that she had
been rather diffuse. she added, Please ex-
cuse my longevity.
n few days ago Michael Davitt celebrated
his fifty-sixth birthday. His career has been
remarkable when 1t is remembered that he
began work as a child OF ten in a Lanca-
shire cotton mill and lost his right arm
when he was eleven. with Mr.. Parnell and
others he founded the Irish Land League.
While he was in Australia in 1895 he was re-
turned 10 Parliament without opposition for
East Kerry and South Mayo. He resigned
from the House three years ago.
''Wu Tingfans" says the London Chron-
icle, acquired his pungent English IN Lon
don. He was a student in the Middle Tenn
pie in 1876, and was known by his proper
and unpronounceable name OF Ng Choy.
Subsequently, after he had entered the pub
lie service OF MS country al llen-lSln anu
had been promoted to be a mandarin, he
followed the custom OF adopting an official
name. Tingfang is said TO mean hall
fragrance and is intended to indicate that
the one so designated is just and emf
nent a lawgiver that the sweet SAVIOR OF his
reputation fills the court 3"

Some weeks ago. when there was consid-
cradle comment in the Kansas papers about
the proposed visit of Mrs. Bob Burdette to
the womens clubs Of that State, the Atchi-
son Globe sneeringly inquired: WHO is this
Mrs. Bob Burdette?" Every day since then
her husband has mailed to the Globe let

Mrs. Burdette, picture of her home or an
account of her club work. Now the enlight-
ened journal announces, under the head

labor. Just what method is best suited TO
the case OF the tramp may not be known.
but it seems 10 be a subject which state
boards of charity should consider with a
view Of devising a remedy which will lessen
the tramp nuisance.
Il has been said many times that If peo-
pie would refuse 10 feed this class of beg
gars they would cease their importantly.
This is one Of the axioms in theory which
cannot be made TO work in practice. II 1t
could be enforced the tramp would be
a thing of the past But there are peo-
pie who take pride in saying they never
turn a needy person from their doors, and
it is often said in praise Of some good man
who has died that he never turned deaf
ear TO those who asked for aid. Of this
sentimental goodness the tramp has always
taken advantage, until the fraternity holds
that 1t is its right to expect assistance
whenever they ask. At any rate, in spite
of the prosperous times, trampism, with
IT'S growing tendency TO crime and its in
science, is increasing. With the great in
crease of foreign immigration there is dan
ger that the army Of tramps will be largely
recruited. 1t is time the evil should receive
the careful attention of those who are CIV
ing special attention to the protection of
society against pauperism and crime.
