She Was Left-Handed.

An elderly colored woman, who was sum-
moned to appear as a witness In one OF the
local courts recently, was the cause OF
much laughter when she was called around
in front of the clerks desk to take the
necessary oath before she gave her testi-
mony.
Hold UP your right hand" the clerk In
structed the woman, whereupon she prompts
ly raised the one for which he had not
asked.
That's not your right hand" the clerk
told her. Don't you know the difference
between right and left?' the court official
inquired.
yes, sir" she answered: ct know the
difference, but you see I'm left-handed."
The woman still insisted on holding her
left hand up, and 1t was only after the
Judge had threatened her that she consented
to hold the proper one up.

When your cerebeIlum's reeling
And you have creepy feeling,
And the pains are Ger you stealing
Like you'd scampered on a tack:
When your neck Is nearly breaking
And your every bone is aching,
And a billion imps are making
Footprints up your cringing back:
When you're full Of griefs internal.
And your pabulum diurpal
Is In chief put on external.
And you do not care TO eat;
When your head Is madly jumping
And your love Of life is slumping,
And you're humping and you're humping
From your topknot to your feet;
When with fever You are burning,
And the throbbings, oft returning
To the start, bring on a yearning
For bucketful Of ice;
When you thrash the bed and swear. toe
That there's nothing can compare to
All the achings you are heir to
That are anything but nice;
When you hurt from head to tee, sir,
And you draw the ice pan closer,
Then it is that you should know, sir,
That it's got You on the hip;
And for all your frantic wailing
You will have to keep on ailing-
For you've got the grand prevailing
Malady-and that's the gripi

THE SOCIALISTS OF BUTTE.

The socialists OF Butte have inaugu.
rated the municipal campaign in that
city by nominating Prof. Leamy of the
high school of that place for mayor,
and already there seems to be friction
among the pi%ratical crew which is to
man this new political ship. Leamy,
though claiming to be a socialist, Is
not an extremist. at least. not just at
present. The Butte Miner is after the
professor and has made him declare
himself. In his statement OF princi.
pies Leamy repudiates the American
Labor Union Journal the organ Of the
new party in Butte. and much of the
platform OF the party upon which he is
supposed to stand The Miner shows
clearly me inconsistency of the posi-
ton in which Leamy stands in on
nection with his following. Even the
professor seems to be Disguised with
II.
In adopting their city platform the
socialists of Butte made the following
declaration: We affirm our adher.
ence to he principles and program of

what is meant by Revolutionary" social.

take over the privately owned indus
