A Hurry-up Order.

One day last week a prominent rail-
road man of Austin, Tex, stepped
into a restaurant for quick lunch.
Soon after taking his seat he noticed
one of the judges of the court of ap-
peals come in and take a seat on the
opposite side of the room. The waiter
soon appeared and took the judges or
der and delivered it to the kitchen in
the rear Of the building as it was
given him. He followed it up by call
ing out, "One Katy Flyeri" The rail-
road man was naturally interested in
this and asked the judge what was
up-how it was that he was ordering
a whole train for lunch. The judge
seemed puzzled as the railroad man,
and, in consequence. the waiter was
called upon for an explanation His
answer was: ''The judge wanted his
dinner in a hurry, SO 1 gave him a
Katy Flyer"

No "Honesty Is the Best Policy" for
Him Any More.
A newsboy picked up $40 bill in
front of one of the big hotels yester-
day. Another young artist of the
brush that is black, but artistic, saw
the pickup and guessed it was money.
He made a loud plead for division.
'Halvers, or I'll squeal," he yelled.
While Red was hesitating an elder
ly. Notwithstanding man stepped
out of the hotel and gazed at the pave
ment in an inquiring manner.
Red saw the man and guessed that
it was his money. He impulsively
ran to him and inquired:
I'D you lose somethin', mister"
''Why, yes, little man, 1 just dropped
q bill. Did you see it?" he replied
with a winning smile.
This it," said the boy, extending
q grimy paw in which was gripped
the bill.
The other boy stood the picture Of
alarmed establishment.
The old man took the bill and said:
THAT is it, little man. 1 am glad to
have it, but it affords me greater
pleasure to know that there is such
an honest, bright boy in the lowly &C.
cupation which is your start in life.
1 predict that you will be a great man
some day. Honesty is the greatest Of
virtues. Thank you, my good boy"
Red stood very still until the old
man had entered the hotel Then he
said things. The things he said show
ed the perfection of his training in the
slums. They were emphatic, but un-
printable, and the end of the long
sentence was IAN / fought I'd get

Says 1t is Mightier Than Law in Sup

ChatauQua, N. Y, Aug. 12.-Unique
among all summer gatherings is the
mob conference" now in progress
here. The increase of mob spirit
shown by feuds, lynchings, riots, as
sassinations and other lawless happen
ings gives great importance to this
conference. Among the speakers was
John Temple Graves, Of Atlanta, Ga.
Among other things he said: THE
problem Of the hour is not how to pre-
vent lynching in the South, but the
larger question: How shall we destroy
the crime which always has and al
ways will provoke lynching? me
answer which the mob returns to TINS
vital question is already known. The
mob answers it with the rope, the pull
let and sometimes, God save us, win
the torch. And the mob is practical; i's
theory is effective to large degree
the mob is today the sternest the
strongest and the most effective re-
straint that the age holds for the con-
troll of this crime"

Washington. Aug. y. - Secretary
Cortelyou has formulated the rules
and regulations which will control the
patrol feet. excursion steamers and

posed by the regatta committee OF the
New York yacht club. The regulations
direct attention, however. more spe-
cifically than hitherto to the penalties
which may be imposed for violation

makes II understood that suspension
or revocation of license will be the
punishment OF any captain or pilot
