SENATOR BACON AS A CHEF.
COIored Man Asks If He's just Plain
Cook or Steward.

United States Senator Augustus O.
Bacon, of Georgia, who has been taking
very prominent part in senate debates,
is one of the most dignified members Of
that assembly He never seeks in his
speeches to provoke the mirth Of lis
colleagues. His gravity is not studied,
but natural.
Even in his social moments he rarely
INDUCES in humor," said Congressman
John w. Maddow, of the same state,
who was speaking admiringly of the SEN
ators ability in craftsmanship. "Sena-
tor Bacon is fond of hunting and fishing" ="
continued Mr.. Maddox, land last year
had the pleasure of accompanying Kim
on an outing. The senator would listen
to funny stories, but only once did he
venture to tell one himself That one,
however, was so good that we haven't
got over laughing at it yet.
Zone day 1 caught a big yellow bellied
terrapin. The senator was delighted. and
stayed in camp the next day to superin-
tend the soup making. The soup was de-
licious. and we SAID so unreservedly. Then
the senator told his story In preparing
the terrapin he had assisting him a color
ed man Of the neighborhOod, whom we
and never dreamed that the man in rough
raiment presiding over the steaming ket-
tie was a United States senator.
1.-The colored man was given a bowl Of
soup and smacked his lips and otherwise
displayed his sense of bliss.
. You like the soup, do you, George?'
asked the senator.
Deed 1 do was the reply. Then he
added:
"'say, boss. I'd like to ak you a little
question
What is it?' responded the senator.

tween eager sips of the terrapin soup, is

JOSEPH is STILL DEAD.

pers Get This Notice.
Some three years ago one Of the inhab-
tants OF a small town in Southern Penn
sylYanla was man named Joseph Rim
ker. Rinker was the sole owner and man
ager Of brickyard, and as such he had
the honor Of having his name enrolled
on the sample copy list Of q Chicago
trade journal.
AS a rule, whenever a man received
half dozen copies Of the paper and was
not them imbued with sufficient gratitude
and enthusiasm to become a bona ndg
SUBSCRIBER, his name was stricken from
the Hst. But for some reason Joseph
tinker was more fortunate. Time after
time copies Of the journal were forwardeI 4
to him, and at last the perseverance OF
the publishers was rewarded They
heard from Joseph Rinker But tho
news came Indirectly in the shape OF
card from the postmaster who told them
that their papers addressed TO Joseph
Rnker lay uncalled for at his Office, the
reason assigned for such a state Of affairs
being that Rinker was dead.
The girl who had charge Of the sample
copy department Of the establishment
had large number Of wrappers written
ahead, 50 one day about a year later
another paper was forwarded 10 Ja-
seph Rinker. The same postmaster was
Ctill holding forth in the little town. ana
he promptly discharged his duty by send
ing the editors Of the paper another card
Again he informed them that their peri
odical was a drug in the market, and
then in undersCored letters at the foot OF
the notice, he wrote this characteristic
sentence:

CHANGES THE QUOTATION.
But Probably Means the Same Thing
I'm the Long Run.


A coterie Of poker players meet semi
occasionally al one of the smaller up
town cubs and play the great American
game with all the zest that Mrs. Battle
used to put into whist. Once in a while
a stranger is admitted on the strength
OF an introduction by one of the poker
crowd. The limit is small but the game
is often quite lively for all that. eStran-
gers are welcome more for the variety Of
the thing than for the amount Of money
which their advent causes to change
hands, but especially for the way in
which they enrich the vocabulary Of the
game.
One night last week two men were in
troduced who were types. The one, a
college man who in early life had studied
theology; the other one who had worked
his way up with the advantage of only
one winters schooling. Both lost heavily
from the start for an hour, and even with
a small limit one can lose a good deal
IN an hour at poker. Luck turned for the
college man, and in ten minutes he had
captured three big pots" and at the end
Of a quarter of an hour was playing ION
velvet" With a smile he remarked, as
he raked in the chips after a big Jack"
''I knew there was balm in Gilead for
me-"
Luck was still against the other stran-
ger, but just when he had begun to think
that it wasn't his night for winning, his
luck turned, too and things began to
come his way. When his pile of chips
was big enough to make the banker
weary, he said:

NEW YORK, May 27-In> connection
with the mysterious arrest reported to
have been made in Jersey City of a per-
son said to have been a valet in the
Paris household OF the Humberts (who
recently fled from Paris and since have
been charged with swindling operations
amounting to more than $12,0000OO it is
said that the New York detectives who
made the arrest have succeeded in secur-
ing a statement from the prisoner.
The latter's name has not been made
public, however and the highest police
officials even deny that such an arrest
has been made. The statement said to
have been made by the prisoner, who is
held as a suspicious person, is reported
TO detail the flight of the family from
Paris, their arrival at Monte Carlo, the
squandering of thousands of dollars in
gambling, the hurried scattering of the
family, and their flight singly, presum-
ably for this country and the Argentine
Republic.
While four of the party went in differ
ent directions, Humbert and his wife are
alleged to have sailed in a private yacht
for Montevideo.
This yacht is described as a handsome
steam vessel, costing many thousands Of
dollars, and bought for the express pur-
pose of leaving the shores of Europe
when the final crash should come The
vessel is now supposed to be nearing the
shores of Argentina, where, according to
the story, they will be safe from extradi-
tion.
The other members of the party are
expected to land eventually in this coun-
try by different steamers.

NEW EXTRADITION
TREATY WITH CHILL
by It's Ratification Last Refuge of
American Criminals Is
Cut OF.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Nav 27-secre-
tary Hay today closed up one of the
principal places of refuge for criminals
committing crimes in the United States
when he exchanged the final ratifcations
with Walker Martinez, the Chilian minis
ter here, of the new Chilian extradition
treaty.
The United States never has had such
a treaty with Chill and some of the most
notable defaulters and embezzIers from
the United States fiave found safety in
that country. 1t has been difficult to
secure a satisfactory treaty, and the
negotiations which led up to the draft
ing Of this arrangement lasted several
years.
In fact the treaty itself bears date of
April, 1900, when it was first signed at
Santiago by Minister Wilson and the
Gillian minister for foreign affairs.

LUMBERMEN ARE PROTESTING.
Object TO Opening of Red Lake Res
eFVatiOn Lands

THIEF RIVER FALLS. Mimi Nav 27
The action of certain lumbermen in on
posing the ratification in congress of the
treaty recently made with the Red Lake
INDIANS for the cession of a portion Of
thelr reservation has aroused wild ind;c-
nation in this vicinity. The reservation to
pc opened does not contain a single tree
suitable for milling purposes and Is at
least forty miles from the pine region. ana
the only reason the lumbermen give for
tne!r action is that the settlement of tcis
region might curtail their use of the Clear
water river.
AS the land in question comprises over
4O0 SQUARE miles, and the Clearwater flows
along its south boundary for a distance
OF only fifteen miles, it appears that this
stand on the part of the lumber barons is
about the limit and it has excited a great
deal of hostility in this section
A vigorous protest is being forwarded
to congress against this holdup by the
lumber interests
