Too Realistic.

During a performance of Captain
Lapalisse" at Valencia theater some
years ago an incident occurred which,
for lifelike effect, left nothing to be de-
sired. During the said play some Of
the actors mingle with the spectators
in order to cooperate from the body of
the house No sooner had Miralles, the
actor, taken his seat in the stalls than
a daring pickpocket robbed him of his
gold watch Miralles seized the man
by his coat collar and called out in a
deep bass voice:
"Policel Help! Thieves"
The audience, taking this little cpl
sode to be part of the performance,
roared with laughter. Even the police
men joined in without stirring hand or
foot.
This is no farcer cried the actor in
tones of despair. 1.-THE fellow has got
my watch!'
The voice sounded so natural that
the audience broke into loud applause
at .'such excellent fooling." Meanwhile
the thief managed to break away from
his captor and escaped.

THE Philippine islands, with the
exception of Mindanao, the Southern
most of the group, and the second in
size, are now as much under the con-
troll of the United States as
they ever were under the con-
troll of Spain. In other words our gar
risons are in possession of the seaport
towns and the principal cities. The
effort to completely subdue the whole
people has been wisely abandoned. In
Mindanao native Sultans of the Moros
have so many quarrels with each other
that sort of protectorate of the United
States over those having control of the
sea coast ought not TO be difficult
thing. Add doubtless, our experience
in the other islands will have given us
wisdom enough to be content with
that.

A CLOSE CALL.

While Mr.. and Mrs. Fred. Smith and
the latter's sister, Miss Grace Weitzel, of
Minneapolis, were out riding last
Sunday evening they were run into by
a careless driver and one of the wheels
of their carriage taken oft. The shock
of the collision jolted all of them quite
severely, but it threw Miss Weitzel
partly from the carriage and the result
was that she was quite badly cut and
bruised, anG is confined to the house
since the accident Nevertheless, the
injuries are in no way serious and she
will be herself in few days, much to
the relief and pleasure of the young
lady's many friends. MIR. Smith was
crowded nearly on to the sidewalk in
order to get out of the way of the rig
that caused the trouble but he couldn't
escape 1t and it was to his excellent
management in handling his team that
further trouble was ayerted.

A MAN by the mama of j. e. McNally
in Fond du Lac wrote letter to the
Milwaukee Sentinel a few days ago,
Complaining that Milwaukee even
ing paper had published something
about the president, with a head line
''in bold letters -''Taddy starts on his
trip" Mr.. Nc Nally was shocked at
this ''imprudence'', and contempt of
good manners" We would prescribe
for McNallys ailraent, that he keep
right on reading the news papers, and
he will soon get so accustomed to these
little things that they wont bother him.
He thinks it would NOS be tolerated in
England for newspaper to say of his
majesty Eddie starts on his trip"
Also he thinks that American Editors
should teach the gospel of becoming
respect for our superiors" Yes, but
really Mr. McNally, they should begin
back of that and teach us, first, that ne
have those things, Those what do you
call it-"superiors' BY the way. Mr.
Me Nally, have you taken out your
first papers yet? fyou have not, then
