Doubtless he has learned more OF
American character and intentions
than ever before. When the President
grants amnesty to Filipino prisoners,
Aguinaldo emerges no longer as a
hero. but as a broken-down and dis
credited halr-breed. who has learned a
few things he needed to know.
His first act after liberation was to
call on General Chaffee, at the lattcr'f

proclaimed that henceforward he

wide, Tapping brimmed Panama He
doesn't for moment Imagine such to
be the case, yet he resembles nothing
SO much as a modernized "rube" carl
cature. or the time -honored snow
bird under a SITTER"
To illustrate the pride a man takes
in his Panama: He is an active poll
tician and lawyer and he was telling OF
the difficulty a friend OF his had in
getting a genuine Panama He said
that the friend had purchased a hat,
but when he gave it a tiny fold, il
broke, thereby showing that it was not
genuine. He took il back and selected
|anOther. but found that it broke also,
and that he made another purchase be-
fore he was successful in his quest.
All the time the politician-lawyer was
telling the story, he pinched his own
hat. visibly swelling with pride that it
stood the test of the genuine Panama.
According to the story of a sales
man for a large hat establishment, no
Panama is really worth more than IS
or Sc. He says that is the average price
paid by his firm. which upon receiving
a consignment, grades them according
to quality and prices them all the way
up from SIS to $50.
To sum TT up briefly, in these days Of
the Panama and its limitations, the
natty sailor is a relief.

MlsTooK HIS MAN., .,Ess,
a Cautious american Tourist and HIS
Travelling Companion.


Travelling Companion.
A cautious American travelling from
Paris TO Nice some years ago found a
stranger in the compartment in which
he had secured a berth.
".Are you Mr.. -?" said the stran-
ger.
The American in surprise answered
afiirmatively.
"Haw said the stranger. Il inquired
at the booking Office who was to be
my travelling companion"
The American realized that this was
no ordinary man and soon found him
self almost hypnotzed by the stran-
gers commanding eye.
When the man proposed cards, the
American suspected that he was a pro-
fessional gambler. lie made many ex-
cuses, finally saying that he cared for
none of the games which his compan-
ion suggested.
"All right" was the discomforting
reply; "we'll play anything you like"
When the American mentioned an
obscure French game, which he hoped
the other would not know, and found
his suggestion taken up eagerly, he
was more than ever suspicious.
But" asked the American, "do you
know how to play it?"
mo" was the reply, "but you can
teach me-"
The American now had little doubt
that the man was a card expert, look
ing for a victim, but, as no suggestion
Of high stakes was made, he concluded
to venture and after some hours play
ing had seen nothing on the part of his
fellow passenger that looked like
cheating.
But when next morning his compan-
ION suggested that they play again to
while away the time the American
grew suspicious again and pleaded a
headache.
When they entered the station at
Nice, the man handed the American

1t Is a rather curious fact that while
facsimiles of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence were common enough sew
eral years ago and were largely used
for advertising purposes they are now
very scarce-so scarce that a Phila-
delphia collector recently paid $40 for
one bearing the advertisement of 4
western railroad. The original docu-
ment, preserved in glass, is still to be
seen in the possession of the depart
ment of state in Washington, but it has
become so faded as TO be nearly illeg-
ible, by reason of which a photographs
ic reproduction would be valueless.
James d. Mcbride had plates made
and secured a copyright on them in
1874, but these plates were later de-
stroyed by fire, and none are now in
existence. Consequently the copies that
have been preserved are constantly in
creasing in value.-Philadelphia Rec

That an undesirable and trustworthy

disputed. That the making OF laws

which to base selection.

THE OLD TIME DERBY.

And How Il differs From the Meet OF
These flushing Days.
1t is strange, indeed, to look back up.
on the manners and customs of the rae.
ing world in the year of the first Derby
and contrast them with the new meth
DDS. In 1850 there was the journey
down to the little Surrey town, and a
coachman thought himself lucky if he
could force his way from Westminster
to EPSON in twelve or fourteen hours
without dislodging a wheel en- route
None but the richest class could afford
to drive there at all, for those were
days when tradesmen thought, like
John Gilpin, an outing once in two
years as much as they could afford.
In those days, too, a visit to EPSON
meant making n week Of it. Lodgings
had to be taken in the town by those
who were not fortunate enough to be
invited to share the hospitality Of some
local magnate. Racing began about II
o. m, and after witnessing one or two
heats the company would retire to the
town to dine, returning later to witness
the conclusion Of the sport.
Nowadays the man Of fashion for the
most part elects to travel to and frC
by rail. He gets his Derby, as it were
while he waits. 1t is quite possible fol-
