ly, II had hoped you had stopped your
evil living. 1t has been nearly year
since you were arrested"
A subtle change passed over the home
ly features.
"'Deed, boss" he suffered, II been
livin' all right an wuzn't doin' nothin'
today cept a little dancin'. l amt
shot no craps in yeah mOs'-nO, sab.

blubbered, ~ don't know what my po'

Gawd 1t wuz. Dey's quality folks, an
dey'd sta've befo' dey'd baig."
That's likely story" began the
policeman contemptuously.
The magistrate motiOned him to be
quiet as he said more kindly:
George, suppose you show me what
sort of dance this was"
The negros face broke into sudden
smiles. Like so many of his race, he
had a childish smile and beautiful
teeth. He stepped forth willingly, and
1t was a pleasure to watch the postur-
ing and gestures SO absolutely African
and yet dramatic.
The magistrate watched him intent
ly. When he had finished and leaned
painting against the desk, his honor
shot sarcastic look at the policeman
and raped out, Case dismissed"
George lost no time in putting the
police station behind him. He was
hustling along toward home when a
sharp faced, theatrical looking man
overlook him and briefly explained
that he had seen him dance and want
ed to engage him for his company Of
minstrels.
George had been in New York too
long to make an easy bargain, and at
last the theatrical manager reluctantly
came to his terms. George even got
an advance on the strict promise that
he would report that night for orders.
Then he flew over the ground to the
Custis fiat.
He fell up the steps and burst into
the kitchen, where Mrs. Custis was
cooking meager supper.
Law, little mistiss," he calculated,
not forgetting to pull off his hat,
"'deed de Lawd has fiummuxed dat
brack cloud over, an dar's some O. de
silver lnin' right dar." And he tri-
umphantly gave her SIS.
Then he told how he got the money.
The poor old lady's tears were stream
ing and he himself was sobbing like a
child.
George" she said brokenly, 'the
ways of Providence are past finding
out"
And he answered humbiy:
"Dat's so, little mistiss; dat's So"

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
The shining bathroom.

Shining Is the word one can most ap-
propriately use to describe the bath
room which is strictly up to date in all
Its appointments. Besides the marble
and porcelain that are inevitable In all
the best bathrooms n host of small ap-
purtenances in nickel are made as ac-
cessories to the well built room.
Nickel is the metal par excellence In
which to fit out this particular room in
the house beautiful.
Many bathrooms have a mirror and
sometimes more than one in the orig
inal architecture of the room. II the
room, however has not had one built
in, mirror framed with nickel is quite
the thing to purchase for it. In shapes
the mirrors come square, oblong-both
horizontal and vertical-and diamond
shaped.
Towel racks of many lengths In the
nickel are shown in the stores for the
bathroom. Some of them are quite
short, and others run the length of the
room. These are particularly useful on
the wall back Of the tub. Several rows
of them here would not be amiss.
These towel bars come also In brass
and In glass, but the preference seems
to be given to the nickel ware for these
particular furnishings.
Among smaller things in this ornate
metal are soap dishes, soap shells, soap
racks and soap cups, any and every
kind Of thing to hold soap in. Some
are stationary and others are fastened
on the edge of the bathtub, so that they
may be moved along, as desired.
Sponge racks, both large and small,
are also in the nickel ware. Some of
these racks have a small soap cup on
either side.
Nickel sets of hooks for all sorts of
handy purposes and nickel towel rings
are among the dainty bathroom ap-
pointments in this line.
Toothbrush holders in nickel come
close and perforated. Some Of these
have china tops set in metal holder.

General Zurlinden, whose name will
recall the stormy times of 1898 when
he was military governor of Paris, has
been retired from the French army,
having reached the age limit. He was
the hero of an escape from prison dur
ing the war of 1870, which showed him
a man of great GOODNESS and resource.
He was an artillery officer when the
war began, and, being taken prisoner
by the Prussians, he was on his refus-
al to give his parole imprisoned in the
Silesian fortress Of Glogan, on the
Oder. One dark night he got out on
the rampant, slipped past the sentinel
and made straight for the station,
where he encountered the governor of
Silesia and his staff about to depart
for Berlin. Zurlinden put on bold
front and asked in perfect German Che
is an AlsatiaD for ticket to Berlin.
Thence he got to Bale via Frankfurt
and arrived in France in time for the
operations on the Loire.

PALACES OF EDWARD VII.
Some Facts About His Former and

Some Facts About His Former and
Present Homes In London.
To the many changes lately made at
Buckingham palace one other might
well, one thinks, be added. And that Is
change of name. True, the site was
once occupied by the house duke of
Buckingham built thereon In 1703, but
that occupation does not seem to i'm
pose the name Of subject upon resi-
dence bought by George I'LL, rebuilt
by George ~. and. though disliked by
William ~, at once adopted by Queen
Victoria as her London residence, and
now the fixed headquarters Of the
king and the prospective headquarters
of our kings to be. No wonder that
foreign visitors are puzzled by the un-
explained retention of a former and
long irrelevant appellation. They ask
for the Palais Royal and are met with
blank stare, shake of the head or
a statement which leaves a proportion
of them under the supposition that his
majesty is the guest of the Duke Of
Buckingham.
Scarcely less appropriate would be
a cancelling at last Of the name of
Marlborough House as applied to the
new hereditary residence of the heirs
apparent. Marlborough is great
name, it is true, but 1t is a name that
the present owner has very natural
right to put up ON the lintels of the
new house he is building in Cuzon

The two most remarkable epitaphs In
the United States are those of Daniel
Barrow, formerly of Sacramento, and
of Hank Monk, Horace Greeley's
stage driver. The former reads as fol-
lows: Here is laid Daniel Barrow,
who was born in Sorrow and Borrow
ed little from nature except his name
and his love to mankind and his hatred
for redskins. Who was nevertheless a
gentleman and dead shot, who
through a long life never killed his
man except in self defense or by acci-
dent, and who, when he at last went
uneer beneath the bullets of his cow
ardly enemies in jeff Morris saloon,
did so In the sure and certain hope Of
a glorious and everlasting morrow"
Hank Monks epitaph reads thus:
Sacred to the memory of Hank Monk,
the whitest, biggest hearted and best
known stage driver In the west, who
was kind to all and brought i'll to none.
He lived in a strange era and was a
hero, and the wheels of his coach are
now ringing on the golden streets"

There are 1,470.000 persons over the
age of ten resident in the United States
who cannot speak the English Ian
guage, exclusive of 10000 Indians. The
number is about per cent of the total
population. The largest number of
nonEnglsh speaking persons is found
in New York, where they number 220,-
600. Pennsylvania, Illinois and Texas
follow. Texas has considerable
Spanish speaking population. So have
New Mexico and Arizona. In the for

The transcendent power and fame
with which great genius has at diff
ferent periods endowed various men
do not always insure them from after
misery and shame.
This was strikingly exemplified in
the cases Of the four greatest Of mill
tary conquerors-Alexander, Hannibal,
Caesar and Napoleon. The general
Judgment of mankind has conceded
them the first place in the lines Of
action for which they were severally
distinguished. Yet they all met with
melancholy and tragic deaths.
Two of them suffered for years the
keenest humiliations which total de-
struction of their hopes could bring.
Two perished at the zenith Of their
power, just as they might have expect
ed long enjoyment of the fruits. of
their tremendous achievements.

Chinese Justice,

The China Times relates an extraor-
dinary case Of Chinese Justice"
A Mr.. Jen was betrothed to Miss
Han and paid his money to the wo-
mans parents. Then he called on the
parents to have the contract fulfilled
and was told that the promised one
was the bride of another.
Having paid his money he considered
he was entitled to the girl and went
to her husbands house to carry her
off, but she was not at home. He then
laid his case before the magistrate.
The girl was arrested and sentenced
to be "kua-ed," the magistrate arguing,
''If you are SO wicked at twenty years
of age, at the age of eighty you will
be menace to the Celestial empire"
The process of kua-ing is very similar
to the ling-chih, or slicing to death
punishment.

The Foundation Of the Moon.

There is plenty of authority for be-
licving that there is a man in the moon.
In fact, there is authority for believing
that there are women and other ami
mails there. Dante declares that Cain
was banished to the moon and that he
can be seen there at any time. Chaucer
declares that the man in the moon was
guilty of larceny and that he carries
thorn bush. Shakespeare loads him
with thorns and gives him dog. Ac-
cording to the general version, he was
banished there for gathering sticks on
Sunday, and the Germans have ampli-
fed this theory by giving him a wom-
an who had been caught churning but
ter on Sunday.
