SENATOR QUAY is accredited with a
story to illustrate Senator Penrose's low
ality to the organization without regard
for his personal opinions or com forts.
Quay in aspirit ofwell concealed raillery,
told the junior Senator one day that no
inconsiderable part of official popularity
lay in entertaining during the Washing
ton season, and advised Penrose to 20 in
more layishly for social honors and at
tentions. "Why," said the senior "a
Senator of your ag ought to be married
Indeed, Penrose, I'd advise you for tine
sake of the organ ization to get married.
Your chances for reelection through in
fiuential demand by the bigwigs will be
increased thousand fold if you lake a
charming wife down there with you next
term. With your money you ought to be
able to do it we'll" Penrose pondered
deeply minute or two and then asked
"Do you really think that a thing like
that counts?" "Sure !" answered the Old
man. "Well," said the junior, resigned
ly, "lct the organization pick out the
woman and I'll marry her."

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
ilamed you have a rumbling sound or
Imperfect hearing, and when il is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken out and
this lube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh.
which is nothing but an inflamed condI-
tion of the mucous surfaces.

One Of Glib MOrgan's Stories.

An Indiana dispatch to the New York
sun says that the farmers of the hoosier
State are going to drill for oil for the pur-
pose of feeding it to hogs. This seems TO
be new way to fatten porkers and if oil
has the same effect on hogs as it has on
fish which inhabit streams into which il
has been run, the pork will make rather
poor eating aud will give those who eat it
the impression that they are chewing u
kerosene saturated lampwick instead of
toothsome cuts from corn-fed animals.
The yarn sounds like one of "Gib" Nor
gan's, who has the credit OF being one of
the most notorious story lellers ever
known in the oil regions of this and other
States, and is about on par with his
story of frozen gas. He told of how he
struck big gas well and that the fluid
was so cold that it came up from the cas-
irg head in chunks of ice and piled up
about the derrick. Being unable to pipe
it he built large ice house. stored it
away and used in the summer as one
wonld wood. 1t was, according to "Gib,"
a great scheme and he made fortune out
Oft, but lost it again building a hotel,
which he erected on turn table so ths.
he could give every guest front room.
The range in the kitchen was so large
that when pancakes were to be baked
darkies on roller skates with bacon tied
to them were sent about on the griddles
to grease them. -Titusville Courier.

Gastronomic Antipathles.

intoxicating liquors have now been
on tap for six thousand years, possibly
for much longer, yet Elder Mlllard of
the Latterday Saints challenges the
world and few adjoining summer-re
sorts to disprove his statement that
only two in a thousand young children
evince a spontaneous relish for any
kind of alcoholic beverage. The rest
either reject it as we would nitric acid,
or sip it experimentally, to please their
entertainers. Seeing their elders gulp
it by quart pots, they do not hesitate to
question its PROJECTIONS, but cannot
help shuddering for all that. Like
Milton's Satan, they "believe and trem-
ble."
Are our American Indians an excep-
ton?
Decidedly not, says the apologist of
human nature. An Indian orphan
from the Deer Creek Reservation had
been brought up in the family Of a
rough and ready, but abstinent, Nor
mon, and in the Provo railway station,
during the momentary absence OF his
protector, was treated to a glass OF Ia
ger beer. ''Weli, how do you like that?"
inquired the experimenter, when the
child of Nature had stopped sputtering.
Wisdom, out of the mouth of babes, in
that case, proved rather too lurid for
print.
Another young aborigine had such
horror of cheese that his playmates, IN
the Carlisle training school, nsed to
amuse themselves with routing him at

which a juvenile Esquimaux would

the perfume.-Felix L. Oswald, M. d.,

A FARCIAL ELECTION.

In Mississippi the keen political con-
test comes in the primaries, not III Ihe
elections themselves. This is proved
by the result of the recent State cleo
tion where Mai. j. X. Vardaman was
chosen Governor without opposition,
his total vote being only 80, 19l. Here
is State with a population IN excess
of a million and half in fact, II IN
cludes more inhabitants than the three
States of Maine, New Hampshire ana
Vermont combined, and yet 1t does not
throw as large vote as has been cast
in a single congressional district IN the
North. Mississippi is Represented III
the House of Representatives at WaSl-
ington by eight congressman, as many
as are credited to the three nortnern
States of New England. In the last
congressional election these elght
southern congressional districts dld not
show as many votes as were cast Oy the
Republicans alone in either the ISL OF
the I'd New Hampshire district. Inc
largest total vote in any OF the MISSES
sipp districts was only 3,24o ana tne
lowest | 146. That is, the total vote IN
the largest district of MISSISSIPPI was
not as great as that sometimes gwen
for members of the common coullcll Ill
some of the wards of Boston.
Mississippi has very large colored
population; next to Georgia, the largest
of any State in the Union, and, WIN
South Carolina, she is one OF the two
States where the blacks outnumber the
whites. According to the census Jhere
were only GAL 200 whites to 90i,ooo
blacks, and we do not suppose that
much over l per cent. of these blacks
were allowed to take part in the cleo
ton. Nor could very large proper
ton of the white voters either nave
gone to the polls, for the census shows
$50, $50 whites of voting age, almost
five times as many as the number OF
votes recorded for the State ticket. In
such circumstances, the holding OF an
election is almost farcial so small a
per cent. of the population, OF of those
who should be allowed to vote, taking
part in it-.Boston Herald.

ODE TO ST. CECILA's DAY.

ODE TO ST. CECILAS DAY.
John Dryden, celebrated English
poet. was born at Aldwinkle, England,
August 9, 1851, and died May l, 1900
He was made poet-laureate in 1868, and
won the title of "the father of English
criticism" In 1886 he united with the
Catholic church, then favored by royal
ty, and in the following year vi tie the
lode of St. Cecilia's Day." Nov. %. 1t
was set to music by a composer named
Draghi This ode is pronounced his
greatest work. We print the second
stanza, said by critics to be a triumph
in verse making.
What passion cannot music raise and quell ?
When Jubal struck the chorded shell,
His listening brethren stood around,
And wondering, on their faces fell
To worship that celestial sound;
Less than god they thought there could
not dwell
Within the hollow of that shell,
That spoke so sweetly and so well.
What passion cannot music raise and quell
This stanza has Coleridgean sweet
ness. After line ending in ell (where
the quantity" is made up by the IL
guilds rather than by the ''close vowel"
preceding them there is nothing so
grateful to the ear as line ending in
sound when thevowel power is so great,
and to run on for nine lines with
these sounds beautifully interlaced,
and yet to clearly and POLITICALLY say the
thing which has to be said, is a feat
worthy of the greatest master. Dry
den, in truth, had the deep delight in
rhyme known only to the very few.

Tea Table Epigrams.

Nervous dyspepsia is one of the
symptoms of plutocracy.
One way to keep peace in the house
hold is to forget what you intended to
say about the steak.
If the baker sends you an over-meas-
ure Of cakes, have him arrested for lun-
acy.
A saline solution of griddle cakes
doesn't constitute salt and battery.
When the coffee won't settle man
thinks he has good grounds for kick.
1t is time to leave the table after the
tea leaves.
If every man got his desserts he
would be kept too busy to worry about
the soups.

OLD DOG TRAY.

OLD DOG IhAAs
Stephen Collins Foster was born in
Pittsburg, Pa, July 4, 1926, and died in
New York, Jan. IS, 1864. He was a
natural musician and wrote 200 or 300
popular songs, from which ne received
royalties amounting to a fortune IN
single instances, which in each case he
squandered, and at last died in poverty.
Following are the words OF "Old Dog
Tray:
The morn of life is past,
And ev'ning comes at last;
1t brings me dream of a once nappy day
OF merry forms I've seen
Upon the village green,
Sporting with old dog Tray.
Old dog Trays ever faithful,
Grief cannot drive him away;
He's gentle, he is kind;
I'll never, never find
better friend than old dog
The forms l called my own
Have vanished one by one;
The lOv'd ones, the dear ones, have all
passed away;
Their happy smiles have flown;
Their gentle voices gone;
I've nothing left but old dog Tray.
Old dog Trays ever faithful,
Grief cannot drive him away;
He's gentle, he is kind;
Pll never, never find
A better friend than old dog Tray.
When thoughts recall the past
His eyes are on me cast;
l know that he feels what my breaking
heart would say,
Although he cannot speak,
III vainly, vainly seek
A better friend than old dog Tray.
Old dog Trays ever faithful,
Grief cannot drive him away;
He's gentle, he is kind;
I'll never, never find
