decided departure from the usual
style OF comedy drama and is marked
by novelty in construction and re-

The characters are peculiar in the ex-

been seen in any other play, most OF
which have been copied from life.

SENATOR QUAY
MEETS OPPOSITION
Democratic Senator Will
Fight a Compromise
Statehood Bill

Washington D. c., Feb 9-Demo-
cratic senators on the territories corr
mittees have served notice on Senator
Quay that they will resort to all the
parliamentary methods in their power
to prevent the compromise statehood
bin from passing the senate. Tins can
be interpreted only as a threat to kill
the compromise bill by flibusterlng
iIf Democratic opposition alone is mar
ifested the compromise bill would still
have a better chance of passage than
the omnibus measure. but some Of the
Republican senators who have been
active in their fight for statehood will
fight the Quay-Aldrich proposition.
The parliamentary status of the bill
is such that the senate can do nothing
at this tine but talk

well as the advocates of statehood has

When Senator Quay came to discuss
his plan with some of his Republican
supporters. however. he found them
decidedly non-committsl. They hal
pledged themselves to follow wherev-
er he led in advocacy of the omnibus
statehood bill, but they were under no
other pledges. Compromises had not
been talked Of at Mr.. Quay's dinner
AS for the Democrats, no statehood
seemed preferable to many of them
than the bill proposed by the com

Two days have passed without MAX
ing any real progress Mr. Quay won't

fort will be made to put the omnibus
bill on the appropriation bill as rid
er. The talk of comDromise has do
veloped deep distrust among the adj
vocates of statehood, as the Democrats
don't know what to expect from Mr.
Quay. Every day Mr. Quay goes to

NOW FOR cITY-BRED FARMERS
Possibilities of Future BY No Means
Remote

AS the urban population which must
be fed from the farms increases, the
tillers of the soil become fewer in
number and poorer in quality. Those
who remain to care for the crops have
one fault which the city dweller is
quick to notice. The worker somehow
does not put the spirit into his tasks
that the eight-hour-day man in town
exhibits. The city boy grows up in
an atmosphere of hustle. With his
ability to make every moment count
the city-bred man may get out of a
farm UNNECESSARILY more than the av-
erage rural resident. Agricultural
schools and a business instinct and
training are not bad substitutes for
farm breeding; and it will not be SUR
prising if the next few years witness
an exodus of city-bred workmen, filled
with spirit and speed, to the districts
which produce the original matter for
all the breakfast foods.-R. E. Down
err in Booklover's Magazine.

MAKES LIVING IN ODD WAY.
Clever Idea of New York Man Is Prov
ina Profitable.

Among the institutions OF Manhattan
Island is Robert M. Budd, Back
Number Budd," as he is called. He
has a tunnel-like place of business in
Thirty-sixth street, where one may find
back numbers of almost any paper or
periodical from the year 1888 to date.
Many years ago, being then news
dealer. he noticed that there was
constant demand for old papers, which
were not to be procured at the offices
of the publication and often not at
all. So he began to save papers every
day and week, and as he found that
he could sell back numbers at an adj
vance of from l to 500 per cent on the
original price he took to buying up old
papers, magazines and other printed
matter. These he had assorted and in
dexed until he had an enormous stock.
His customers are not numerous, but
they pay tremendous prices, occasion
ally for the privilege of merely copy
ing something from an old publication,
and "BackNumber Budd" makes quite
a good living out of his queer business.

Detective who was murdered by BILLY"

and was preparing to force its way
into the Jail. The police saw the dan
ger and telephoned to the fire depart
ment.
In a few moments the department,
with more than the usual changing OF
gongs, made run past the city hall.
The crowd was temporarily diverted,
and hundreds followed the firemen, to
realize only too late that they had been
tricked. In the meantime the city nall
corridors had been cleared and the
mob left outside the building.
Before long the cries of Lynch
him!" Burn him!" and Bring him
Quit" were renewed and the situation
became alarming.
Instructions were given to the cleo
trio light plant and the lights along the
street in front of the building were all
put out.
Again the fire department was call
ed to the city hall and in the darkness
the police yelled to the firemen to turn
the hose on the mob. The firemen
made a great hustle and clatter, as If
preparing to douse the crowd.
During this diversion the negro was
hustled into a closed carriage and
rushed to the county jail, several
blocks away.
The county jail is a much stronger
building than the city Jail and by the
time the mob reached there in the
darkness it was greatly diminished
and much discouraged over the way
the police had tricked them.

lish poster cold and ironical, the
French light and subtle with yelled
reflections, the Austrian soft and
feshly. He observes stiffness and
awkwardness in the Swiss posters and
intricate design in the German. Italy
in her posters shows herself noisy,
with debauches of indigo and solferi-
no red," while Spain posts bills with
tints of an orange omelet. Posters in
this country, says the discoverer,
still reflect the puritan ancestry of
the people, which remark seems to in

after the marriage. Her eyes were
opened on the bridal tour, when her
husband threw a solid silver powder
box at her because she was too i'll to
accompany him on carriage ride.
Her millionaire husband, she said,
laughed at her because she went to
church and jeered at her because she
would not drink rum and smoke cigar
cites. He declared she was coward
because she would not quarrel with
him, and frequently threw chinaware
at her until he yawned. Once when
he returned from the circus he made
her stand against the wall while he
threw table knives at her
