Was Tenacious.

It Was u Long Chase. but the Consul
Was Tenacious.
A c.,nsulShip vacancy occurred in
one of the group OF islands of the
south Pacific said Pacific coast fed
eral judge. II commended a friend
for the vacancy. He was appointed,
and. us it was imperative he should
reach his post at the earliest possible
day, he sailed from San Francisco
with the understanding that his COM
mission should follow him and that he
should take the oath Of Office before a
local magistrate after he had arrived.
Well. the new consul sailed, and it was
six months before the state depart
ment heard from him. He reported
there was no local magistrate and in
quired Of the secretary il he could not
take the necessary oath before the
king. The secretary wrote him in the
affirmative. ard it was several months
later when another letter came, this
time by sailing ship, after going around
the world. 1t contained the graphic
information that the aforesaid king
had in the meantime gone to an adj
joining island ard taken to the brush.
Should the consul follow him? Again
he was given an affirmative answer.
The archives of the state department
will show that he eventually located
this south sea island king in the brush,
was sworn in and, after the lapse of
nearly two years from the date of his
appointment. was fully qualified to en-
ter upon his consniship."

wcttinE a Wheel.

Once when Chief Justice John Mar
shall was driving in Virginia he found
that the tire on one of his wheels was
loose and kept slipping off. He didn't
know great deal about common af-
fairs, for he had not lived much with
the common affairs of life, but he did
know that water would tighten a tire
on a wheel So he came to a little
branch and drove into it and got one
little section Of the wheel wet, then
drove out and backed his horse. and
the same part Of the wheel went into
the water again, and he pulled back
and kept seesawing backward and for
ward, all the time getting the same
part of the wheel wet. While the judge
was bothering himself about how to
get the wheel wet negro came along
and, seeing the situation, told him to
back into the water again. He did so,
and the negro took hold of the spokes
Of the wheel and, turning it around di-
rectly, had it wet all around. Judge
Marshall said, "Well, never thought
Of that" The darby replied, well,
some men just nat'ly have more sense
than others anyhow"

Is OIney a Possibility

New York World: The name of
richard Olney, the able secretary of
state IN President Cleveland's cabinet.
mas been received with considerable
favor in different portions of of the
union as Il possible democratic candi-
date for president. The Republic of
Boston, weekly paper edited by ex-
Congressman John f. Fitzgerald, saws
that it is strongly of the idea that
Mr. Olney will be nominated" and
ADDS that the opinion of men high
IN the councils of the party in Wash
ington lean strongly in his favor
Very few presidential candidates
have been nominated from Washing
ton-Or in recent years from Massa-
chusetts. To overcome the objection
that Mr.. Olney's state is hopeless for
democrats, the Republic suggests that
If Mr.. GastOn-who will again be the
democratic candidate for governor
this year. and who reduced the re-
publican plurality from $1,000 to 81
600 last November shall be elected
or come near it, next fall, state
pride could be depended upon to
carry Massachusetts for Mr. Olney.
This is very formidable ''if'' 1t is
wild conjecture to suppose that the
democrats of the south and west, who
VIII dominate the convention in num-
bers. will look to Massachusetts for
a presidential candidate.
In addition to this, Mr.. Olney though
at man of strong intellect and char
acter, is not well calculated by tenn
permanent to arouse any personal en-
thusiasm. 1t will be remembered
against him that he did not as attor-
ney general make a record as a prose-
cutor of trusts. His letter to the
World in support of Mr.. Bryan in
1900. in which he called Mckinley a
Syndicate president" was, however,
the boldest. bitterest and most eff
fective arraignment of the plutOcratic
influences in control of the republi-
can party and of its imperialistic
tendencyS that appeared during the
campaign. 1t certainly qualified Mr.
Olney as Il democratic candidate. alike
on the ground of regularity and of
doctrine.
Mr.. Cleveland no doubt has a warm
side" for his former cabinet officer.
Mr.. Bryan appreciated his support
Though not a probability. is he not an
interesting possibility?
