ENGLISH FAMILY NOTICES.
Many Conceal Puns and Jokes Be-
meath Their Classic Forms.

The study of family notices is not en-
livening. They are, for the most mart.
frigid tags of Latin, which look as if
they had been chosen in despair from
handbook of classical quotations, either
because of the piety of the platitude, or
for some inept play upon words But
they are most lamentable when an at
tempt is made at wit. and the entire
peerage and baronetage may be ransack
ed in vain to find more than half doz-
en- which are really happy and ingeni-
Gus.
Perhaps the wittiest is the motto of
the Earl of Onslow. "Festina Lente.
The family name has been split up into
its component syllables and translated
into Latin and by a lucky chance there
was a Latin proverb which seemed coin

good, but it gathers additional point
from the fact that his lordship gained
his peerage for big gun making. There
are others whose names require little

Beauchamp says Fortuna mea in bel

name is Verney-Cave, says "Gardez,'

Viscount Cross, with Just a touch of
daring impiety, adopts the legend

There is not much wit in the "Templa

"Vigila ct Ora" of the Wakes, the POL

worst of all, perhaps, are two notices of

C. M. SCHWAB FAILED ONCE

palace for himself in New York with
a few of his millions. Well. he tried to
shoe a horse once and couldn't do it.
TT was when he was a young man
just about old enough to earn his own
living. He used to take his fathers
horse to the shop of Pat Moran. the
horseshoer in Loretto village. to be shod.
Time and time again he asked Pat
to let him nail on a shoe. He seemed to
like the business.
'Ah, gwan,' Pat would tell him. Yer
can't shoe yerself. Yer daddy has to do
it fer yer"
But young schwab stuck to it, and
it. And he bungled it so that after
awhile the patient horse landed out with
his foot and away went the youngster
to the other side of the smithy.

LELAND NEED NOT PAY.
New Trial Denied in Old Capital Com
pany Suit.

Judge Hazen decided this morning
that there should be no new trial in the
case of the Remington Paper company
against Cyrus Leland, jr.
The Remington company sued Leland
ON the ground that he was a stakeholder
in the Topeka Daily Capital company
which was indebted TO the Remington
company. The court decided that Lee
land had given the company $1,000 as
a political loan, but that he was not
stockholder. A new trial was asked for
on the ground that previously March q
Co. had secured judgment against Lee
land as a stockholder. Judge Hazen
held that if in the previous suit Leland
had been found not to be a stockholde-
that the fact would not have barred the
Remington company from bringing suit
and therefore the rule would work both
wsys, and that there should be no new
trial
