His Story Interrupted.

Senator McComas is one Of the lecturers
and has been for number of years, be-
fore he left the bench OF the Supreme
Court Of the District TO enter the Senate
He makes a practice of illustrating his
points frequently by little story. and
one night recently, in telling how small
the world really is, he narrated per-
sonaI experience of meeting an old friend,
whom he referred to as Bill Smith, In
widely different parts of the world.
Il was walking down the Strand" said
the Senator, when in the vast throng
which surges up and down that thorough
fare whom should l meet but Bill Smith,
my old college chum, whom had not seen
since we left our alma mater.
"A few years later l was in a Paris
cafe. and who Should come in but that
same man Bill Smith. Again last sum
mer, while journeying through Yellow
stone Park, far from civilization and hu-
man habitation. whom should | encoun-
ter upon the train but my old friend, the
same Bill Smith"
At this point in the narrative preco-
cious young disciple of Blackstone sitting
in the rear of the lecture hall shouted
out:
We'll, why don't you pay the man,
SENATOR"
Instantly the decorum of the school
room was broken by wild shouts of laugh
ter, in which the May yland Senator joined
as heartily as any of the students.

A CIOHized Cemetery.

They have new scheme in Paris, or
rather an old one revived. for the
| idea is not entirely new. 1t is that Of
] cemetery for household pets, which
| is to be known by some such name as
the cemetery of civilization The
company which has been established
for this purpose is said to anticipate
paying good dividends. The terms will
be: One grave for three years, SO;
for five years, IS; for thirty years,
$50. 1t will thus be seen that the pet
animals to whom attention is paid
will occupy rather rented tombs than
permanent graves.
The cemetery will be subdivided into
plots for birds, dogs, cats, white mice,
and other pet animals. Cat and dog
funerals will now be in order, with
all the appropriate and expensive de-
vices. 1t is said that some American
residents Of Paris are interested in
the plan.
Meantime. half of the children in
New York City die before they reach |
the age Of FIVE years. largely on ac-
count of the fact that they cannot be |
fed on pure milk and kept in comfort |
able homes. Meantime, horses are
tormented by docking and by the |
check-rein and burr bit, and by care |
less or cruel driving. Meantime, ami |
mails are daily vivisected in labora-
tories for the purpose of instructing
students in certain things which it is
claimed they cannot learn out Of
books or by lectures. Meantime, fam |
is are living in tenements, packed |
in like sardines, five or six people to |
a room, with no possibility of privacy !
or even cleanliness. The excuse given |
for the prevalence OF some of these |
things is that to relieve them by Civ
ing money would pauperize the poor,
the inference being that the poor
would better be dead than pauperized |
by living under decent conditions The !
great reason is, however, the lack OF |
money in the hands of people who are |
working in a sensible way TO do away
with pain for humanity and the brute |
creation. This may be why a civiliza-
tion cemetery needs to be started for |
dogs and cats.

day and sometimes in a most startling
manner.
Senators Tillman and Kean exchanged
felicitations as to the excellence of their
physical we'll being Saturday afternoon,
when they first met for the day. They
smiled genially together. apparently with
the utmost friendliness.
To one who might take seriously all
that he hears on the floor of the Senate
this would have seemed utterly impos
sible, after what occurred during the vote
on the resolution OF censure on Friday,
when Mr.. TiIlman made his caustic re-
mark regarding the social status of any
person who would demand more than
an apology for an offence committed
in the heat of blood. Mr.. Tillman did
not intend the remark to be an Insult to
the Senate or the Senators, he sid, but
many other people did regard it. and
among them was Senator kean. The Sen
ator from New Jersey announced hotly
that since Mr.. Tillman had seen fit to in
suit the Senate again he would change
his vote on the resolution of censure, and
this he did. Senator Tillman looked at
him with a red face, and almost anything
in the way of a retort was expected.
In the same way Senator Burrows and
Senator Tillman were on the best pos
sible terms Saturday, which is surely
surprising. Senator Burrows put his arm
around the shoulders of the South
Carolina man, as the latter satin his seat,
and they had quite an animated confab
in this intimate attitude.

The Merger Fight.

THE people of the State of Washington
are backing up Governor Mcbride in his
determined fight against the Northern
Securities merger" said Mr.. P. C. Diggs.
Of Spokane, last evening at the Riggs
House.
They know that this combination, if
allowed to go through, will simply put
them at the mercy Of the railroad octopus.
and that further railroad building will be
arrested, to the detriment of undeveloped
but rich regions in the Northwest that
are now without any transportation ia
cilties. Governor Mcbride IS the active
ally of Governor Van SAINT, of Minnesota,
who took the initiative in the anti-merger
fight, and both are sustained by public SEN
timent in their respective States. The at
titude Of President Roosevelt in this con-
troversy has aroused favorable comment,
and has greatly increased the popularity
of the Chief Executive.
las we view it, the President has taken
the side of the people against the gigan-
tic moneyed interests. No greater pub
lie question has arisen in years, and II
the combination can be beaten II will be
a notable victory for the rights of the
masses and a stinging blow to selfish
corporate aggression"

Boston Globe-If we are to count our
origin on the basis of the nation that has
supplied the bulk of our American popu-
lation, then. certainly, Germany is prop
erly the Mother Country" of the United
States. II is true that Great Britain
planted the first colonies among us and
soon took first rank as a colonizer, but
it is not true that, taking the country at
large, the British have since supplied the
bulk of the blood and sinew of the coun-
try. That honor belongs prominently to

This time last week the city was in a
flutter of excitement over the coming of
the prince, and the streets were crowded
with the '.Suffra gists,'' the Daughters -

their various conventions.
The present week opens as barren of
amusement of any sort as the most

being the walks and drives that society
generally enjoys at this season when the

Anti Swearing Societies.

"All over Pennsylvania" said Mr.. r. C.
Craft, of Scranton, at the Ebbitt, anti
swearing societies are being formed. and
the people are joining them by the hun
dreds The object of the societies is to
bring about a cessation of profanity in
ordinary conversation.
II believe that vast deal of good will
come of this movement, and hope to see
it spread to other parts of the Union. The
fact is that a large per cent of men use
profane speech to an extent that they
scarcely realize. A gentleman ought not
to mar his talk with coarse and meaning
less expletives, and l believe the day is
coming when frequent oaths will not be
tolerated in decent society"
