Recalling Names.

The Topeka Mail and Breeze tells of
a travelling man Of presumably large
acquaintance who set out TO write
down the names Of all the people he
knew. He thought he could write
100, 900. He wrote only 1000. II re.
minds us Of a wager made by the late
Senator p. b. Plum.
In 1891 Plumb delivered a speech on
the silver question in the Senate. He
wished to mail copies Of 1t to as many
Kansas people as possible. One Sun
day he gathered at his committee
room a large number OF the Kansas
fellows holding office In Washington
and asked them to address as many OF
the speeches as they could remember
names in the counties from which they
came. "How many can you writer"
asked Plumb of a newspaper man who
only recently had secured a position in
one Of the departments. HOh, 5000"
carelessly replied the newspaper man.
"You can't write 1000" said Plumb.
"I1l bet you the best hat in town you
can't write 500"
The newspaper man snapped up this
bet as the easiest thing which had
ever come bis way. He commenced
dashing of the addresses with great
rapidity. At the end Of the first 100
he was pausing to bite bis pen feflec-
lively. At the end of the second 100
he was in evident distress. Before be
had reached 400 supper time arrived,
and he threw us the task and the bet.
II thought" said the newspaper
man in talking about the matter,
''that / had Plumb beat easy. Ny
scheme was to write the names of my
old subscribers, a list that / had writ
ten hundreds of times In mailing my
paper. But often when l had called
up a face l couldn't call up the name,
or maybe the initials, or the post
Office at which the man got his mail"
Plumb himself had the faculty of
remembering names and faces. No
boubt he cultivated the art a a valu-
able accomplishment in his political
life. One Of his idiosyncrasles was to
ask the name of every hackman who
drove him anywhere. Years later he
could call that hackman by name.

Income and Outgo in One Town.

ASt 500
Walter Williams has been investi-
eating the receipts and expenditures
OF the people of Columbia, and gives
some curious and interesting estimates
relative to them in the Herald. Co
lumnia has about 5000 people. 1t is
the seat OF the Missouri State Univer-
sity, Stephens College flor womenl
and some minor institutions Of learn
ing; it is, in short, distinctiyely an ed
vocational town. Mr.. Williams esti-
mates that the average income OF the
heads OF the towns families is $500.
There being 1900 families, this makes
1900, coo annually. He estimates that
their largest items OF expenditures are
as follows: food, $4,000: clothing,
SIPS, 900; tobacco and cigars, SIS, 900;
drink bill, $50, 600; city government,
s12, 600; public schools, $4,000;
churches, $50, 900; insurance, 100000;
concerts, circuses and lectures, $4,000;
miscellaneous, $4,000. This makes a
total OF $3.50, 900, leaving s4O,o 900 for an
nual savings.
1t will be seen that eve in this cen
ter OF culture the liquor and tobacco
bills together are half as big as that
for food, three-ifths as big as that fol
clothing. $4,000 larger than that for
insurance and 5000 larger than those
for city government, public schools
and churches combined. A close OBJ
server divides the towns tobacco bill
into sI7, 500 for cigars and sl2,5OO fol-
smoking and chewing, but Mr.. VIII
liams cuts the total in two. One OF the
largest items in the miscellaneous
estimate is for news. 1t is estimated
the people Of Columbia buy over l,OOC
copies OF metropolitan daily newspa
pers every Sunday and a proportionatt
number on week days.

When she started to enter the Office
OF Superintendent of Police Day the

imal. For this she was placed under
arrest at the doors Of the city hall and
detained for a hearing until o'clock
Then she was remanded until to-mor

Our Roads Agtonish Foreigner

The development OF passenger trans
portatlon In the United States aston
ishes all foreigners. Edwin A. Pratt,
a representative Of the London Times,
was making some investigation re-
Gently at the Grand Central Station
with a view to writing a comprehen-
sive article on American railroads.
His inquiries developed the fact that
the New York Central has eight pas
senger trains a day between New
York and Chicago, and when he
learned that the distance is $50 miles
he remarked that 1t is a marvellous
thing. He was still further astonish-
ed to find that four of the eight trains
make the $50 miles in twenty-four
hours, and that one, the Twentieth
Century Limited, goes the distance
every day, in either direction, in twen-
ty hours. His amazement grew when
he was informed that the westbound
Twentieth Century Limited carries
only Chicago passengers, and will not
take a passenger for any other point.
He remarked that his people would be
equally astounded on learning these
facts. = From "On the Tip Of the
Tongue column in the New York
Press. =
