Morgan and the Newspaper Man.
During his stay in Washington, Pier
pont Morgan seemed to thoroughly en-
Joy himself, says a Washington dis
patch in the Chicago Record-Herald
He attended the Gridiron dinner last
night and showed that he could appre-
ciate a joke at his own expense, al
though he was numerically roasted
A group of interviewers vainly sought
yesterday to extract from Mr.. Morgan
his thoughts on the business prob
lens confronting Wall street.
"Gentlemen," said he, "your business
is getting and printing news, isn't It!
And mine is trying to do things, isn't
it?"
YES" assented the interviewers.
"Well, suppose I gave you the news
in advance to print about the things
I may try to do. You win and
would lose," he said, land you would
think me a Ounce for letting you win.'
Senator Hanna met Mr.. Morgan In
the lobby Of the Arlington hotel this
afternoon. Naturally they discussed
the Gridiron club dinner.
"These newspaper boys are a jolly
lot of fellows" said Mr.. Morgan.
Good fellows" exclaimed Senator
Hanna, enthusiastically; "why Morgan

THEY HAD GOTTEN M1xED.-Two
distinguished statesmen, who attended
a Gridiron club dinner for the first
time, are the subjects Of the follow
ing story. For the sake OF breVlty
they will be designated as BLACK and
Gray"
They were unaware Of an ironclad
rule of the club which adjourns the
dinner promptly at midnight. Black
and Gray had informed their respect
i've families that it would probably be
an all night session, and after leaving
the Arlington hotel, attended an over
flow meeting at nearby resort De-
fore proceeding homeward.
When Gray reached home he was
somewhat uncertain as to whether ne
had pulled the right door bell. HIS
anxious wife stuck her head out OF the
window and inquired:
who's there?"
docs Mr.. Gray live here?" said her
confused husband.
"Of course, he does, you old fool
You are Gray"

pick me out, so Black can go home. -

OF all the brilliant preachers Of mod
ern times, no one shone more resplen-
IDENTIFY in conversation than the elo-
quent Baptist minister, Robert Hail.
says the Saturday Evening Post. IL
is remarkable that, while In his writ
'ngs, hardly CLEAN Of wit or humor
is to be found, yet in the social circle
he was distinguished by his terse and
pungent sayings. All his life he was
a martyr to an excruciating disease
and his wittiest sayings were uttered
when he was writhing with sharp pain
A lady at a friends house found him
so lost in thought that she vainly es-
sayed to engage him in conversation
At length, impatient Of his reveries'
she said fippantly, in allusion to a
Miss Steel to whom he was engaged
to be married.
"Ah. sir, If we had but polished steel
here we might secure some of your
attention, but"
Madam" interrupted the now
easy; If you are not polished steel, you
are at least polished BRASS" Z.
Hall had an intense adherence OF
religious cant, to which he gave ex-
preston sometimes in the most scorch-
ing terms. A young minister, VINO was
visiting him, spent a day in signing
ever and anon begging pardon for his
suspirations, and saying that they
were caused by grief that had so hard
a heart. When the lamentations,
which Hall had borne patiently the
first day, were resumed at breakfast
on the second he said:
why, sir, don't be so cast down;
remember Of the compensating prln-
ciple, and be thankful and still"
"Compensating principle!" exclaim-
ed the young man; what can COM
pensate for a hard hearth"
"Why, a soft head, to be sure!" re-
piled Hall, who, If rude, had certain
ly great provocation.

"Oh. do not talk to me any more!"
cried Luella. She resumed her walk,
and Mrs. Penrose placidly resumed her
talk.
"Now that I have done my duty by

Is at the front in our republic. Men
who, like John Gordon, stand up for the

rights Of childhood, are bound to CON-

are missing the rarest opportunity a
woman ever had to ally herself with
man who has something in his plan Of
life worthy Of effort. What will you
have to give, up? A few baubles that
make the physical life little softer
and few that civilized power can get
along without and in the most cases
be the better for not having. For these
baubles you are going to commit an act
Of deliberate murder Of the best feeling
q woman ever had, murder of love for
a true man. He is perfectly right to
demand that you live with him In
Hope House. You would have every
reason to despiseN him If he did not ask
that Of you. A man who has great

could not ask any woman to share 1t
