WHEN HIS HORSE LOST
He Wanted to Know the Cause of the

''Of all the racy stories that spring up
when the horses are running at Benning,

where the odds were 100 to l against his
sure thing. He reached down in his trous-

fully he counted off the bills They were
all of the minimum greenback denomina-

core at all.
Pat made the bet all right and then
walked off smilingly. He began to figure

The speech delivered by Carlyle at the
dinner given to Allan Cunningham at Dunn
fries in 1881 has been unear.hcd by John
Muir from the report of a contemporary
local newspaper, and it was worth unearth-
ing. If only for the reference made in It to
a communication which had recently passed
between the speaker and the then idol of his
literary and philosophical worship. In the
course of the remarks with which he pre-
faced his proposal of toast to the memory
of Robert Burns, Carlyle told his audience
that within the last two months he had
learned from Goethe. the greatest living

FEARED NOT ToNsILITIs.,
But the Poetry Was Even Worse Than
the Disease.

Herolsm Is a trait in man that seldom
fails to appeal to the gentler sex. We read
how the fair maiden. rescued from a wa
terry grave while bathing marries the saver
Of her life. The fireman braves everything
to save the defenseless woman penned in
her room by flames and is rewarded by her
hand in marriage.
There Is scarcely day that you can't
pick up newspaper and read Of a wedding
that was brought about by some act of
heroism. Woman adores the man who is
brave. That is why the brass buttons and
the stripes Of the soldier boy make him
lionized by the fair daughters Of every
country.
But a dissertation on the subject was
not intended in this story. Merely recital
OF what actually took place here in Wash
ington the past week. A Georgetown young
man of prepossessing appearance is very
attentive to young woman who believes
in reciprocity in matters pertaining to love

muse and he indited her each day of her
illness verselet efrervescing with love.
On Thursday he received a dainty note
from his sweetheart saying that she would
be able to see him the following day. The
Georgetown young man was on hand
promptly. As he entered her presence he
grasped her hand lovingly and was about
to kiss her as she drew back and ex-
claimed:
Percy. you mustn't. supposing you
should get tonsolitis; it would be a dead
giveway."
II don't care; I'm not afraid" he ex-
claimed proudly. as he brought her to him
and impaired long. sweet, loving smack
Now. the Georgetown young man. chesty

had made. told several OF his intimate
friends.
why don't you write piece of verse;"
one Of them asked.
Yes: there's an opportunity Of a life
time" said another.
The Georgetown young man stirred up
his think tank" and this poetic effusion
was the result:
go east. go west, go north. go south,
Naught in this world one-half so sweet Is
As one dear kiss from your sweet mouth
Despite the risk Of tonsilitis."
The verse was sent to his sweetheart yes-
terday and the young man is positive that
1t will prove a winner. and that his hero
ism will be adequately rewarded.

Rewards for missing people frequently
accomplish much good" remarked a men,
Der of the police department to a Star re-
porter few days ago after several bodies
had been found in the river. People who
know a reward has been offered will be on
the lookout for the missing person and give
attention to every stranger who happens to
come along"
He referred to the case of Captain Lord,
who disappeared a week before Christmas
and for information concerning whose
whereabouts a reward of 500 was offered.
Since his disappearance the officer said,
"a number of man have been found about
the country, and somebody believing each
man was Captain Lord gave him the best
care and attention until the mistake was
discovered.
Several other men have disappeared
since Captain Lord went away, but as no

1t was also related by the officer that
dead bodies of strangers sometimes get
better treatment when there is a suspicion
that reward for the unfortunate one has
been offered.
Il remember several years ago that a man
committed suicide by jamping from river

of 800 for the recovery of his body
