Senator Lodge of Massachusetts is
credited with favoring Governor Taft Of
the Philippines for the republican nom
nation for the presidency, and mas
much as Lodge is said to be in training
to act for Roosevelt in the next ma
tional convention as Hanna acted for
Mckinley in the two previous national
conventions, this may mean much. Taft
is strong in Ohio, and if this programme
goes through, it will unquestionably mean
the elimination Of Hanna and the Hanna
element from the national and Ohio
politics as an clement to be reckoned
with. Lodge hopes to win through the
help of Senator Foraker of Ohio and
Senator Beveridge of Indiana, and 1t must
be admitted that the project secured a
good start when Foraker compelled
Hanna to consent to the endorsement of
President Roosevelt.

which the college graduate owes to his

In spite of prejudice the japanese pa
per serviette is making headway, and
perhaps it would become even more
popular If 1t were not for its brilliant
decoration, which rather jars upop the
taste of people who associate the re-
finements of the table with spotless
white linen. But the paper handker-
chief has even greater claims upon our
appreciation. A handkerchief which Is
merely an ornamental adjunct to a
lady's toilet is all very well, but there
is no innate daintiness about the
mouchoir and its uses. The washing
of one which has seen the service for
which 1t was intended is by no means
a task for the fastidious, and with our
increasing knowledge Of the spread OF
disease it is a question If 1t Is not a
reasonable sanitary precaution that all
should be destroyed. If that idea once
got into the public mind the future OF
the paper handkerchief should be as
sured. The paper mouchoir, which
can be burned when done with, appeals
to us on the score Of economy, as well
as that of convenience. The conyen-
ience Of them for travellers is obvious

The Rriderroom,s TIP.

There is a young clergyman near Ha-

for saying "the guilelessness Of some
rural gentry passeth all understand
ing"
A young couple with matrimonial In.
tent, fresh from the green fields Oh
their rural homes, went recently to the
parsonage of the clergyman in ques-
ton. The nuptial knot was tied. In
the pause which followed the newly
made Benedict looked even more en-
barrassed than before. He fished
about In his trousers pocket as II look
ing for something.
"Whats the price," he finally blurted
out.
"The state allows me dollar" SAID
the clergyman, "but'- and paused.
Some pauses are more eloquent tnan
words. Evidently this was not.

A Woman with Nerve.

A strange story comes from China OF
a remarkable operation for appendi-
citis performed by Mrs. William IL.
Logan, wife of a medical missionary
In China. When living In the far In
terror Of that vast country, 800 miles
from the nearest doctor, her husband
was stricken with appendicitis. DR..
Logan saw that his only chance OF re-
covery lay in an operation, which he
asked his wife to perform according to
instructions which he gave her. A
more appalling position for a human
being to be placed in could scarcely
be imagined, but this heroic woman,
who might perhaps have screamed If a
mouse had run over her feet placed
her husband under an anasthetic and
with her unskilled hand successfully
removed his appendix. Afterward,
when he had rallied sufficiently to be
moved, she took him 800 miles by
wagon and rail to a physician, who
comnleted the cure.

An English Bishops Confessions.

Some of the English bishops, with all
their dignity, are not above indulging
Of times in harmless pleasantly. The

been making some interesting confes-

son In simple cookery-how to make
flap1acks or cook bacon-let them come
10 me. and will teach them. 1t has
been said Of certain king that he was
fit to be a king because he had blacked
his own boots, and, according to that
reasoning, I am more fit to be q bishop
than any one here because I have cob
bled my own boots and moulded my
own breeches." The bishop made these
confessions in the course Of lively
speech. In which he maintained that
happiness was an internal Joy depend
ing upon internal feeling. Some one
IN the hall suggested that income might
have something to do with the matter.
The bishop declared in reply that he
had lived as poor a life as any OF bis
hearers. When a missionary he had

ground for months at stretch With

MEANING OF THE BILL.

Practical Joke That Was Played on
an Unsuspecting Reporter.
General Batcheller. judge OF the
court of appeals Of the international
tribunal of Egypt. was member OF
the assembly Of New York state In
1873. He was a great fayorite there
with the newspaper men, as he was al
ways brimful of good newsy incidents
concerning doings Of the day that were
not of the dry as dust" order. When
there was a lull of business on the
floor he was sure to be found chatting
with the "boys" in the correspondents
corner in the then old fashioned capt.
tol. A good story of that period In
which the colonel figures is told by
member Of the house Of that year.
A reporter in the assembly for one OF
the Albany papers used to make up ev-
cry day a list for publication in his pa
per of all bills introduced, devoting TO
each a short para graph mentioning the
name of the introducer of the measure
and giving few lines concerning Its
objects. One day the reporter left his
desk to get points from members, leav-
ing a pile of copy" on it. The last
sheet on the top simply had the name
of the man who introduced the bill, its
| title and some words explaining its
purpose.
General Batcheller in sauntering
about espied the reporters vacant seat
and quietly occupied it. Taking up
pencil, he sportively added the follow
ing to the writing he saw before him:
1.-TWO sections Of this bill are as clear
as mud. That may be because they re-
fer to crossroads. The bill provides,
among other long felt wants. for the
establishment of lake in the northern
part of the county where assemblymen
will be able to sail catboats during tbe
dog days at the expense. Of the state"
OF course the generals Intention was
to give the reporter a violent shock
when he got back to his desk and ran
his eye over the sheet. Somehow the
reporter in his hurry to add new
stuff" to his copy turned to the next
sheet and continued his bills intro
; duced" without reading the pad Gen.
eral Batcheler had doctored, and the
general, becoming busy on the floor.
forgot all about his novel pencil work.
There was a big surprise for the as
sembly when many copies Of that paper
were published before the Batcheller.
addendum was discovered. There was
a great laugh over the incident. and
things were finally explained to every
body's satisfaction.-New York Times.
