And It Served Him Exactly Right ,~ Too.
 1t happened during the time the new union depot was being built. The Oakland had pulled out some thousand yards from the slip when by some chance big piece of pile became en- tangled tn one of her paddle wheels. As the loaded wheel reyolved there fol lowed such tremendous batter1ng, pounding and smashing of timbers that a frightened landsman could jump only to the conclusion that the machinery was somehow trying to tear it's way through the bottom of the ves- sel. We're sinking" shouted panic stricken passenger, making a rush for the doors on the lower deck, Instantly each one was fighting madly to get through the doorway first. There Is no telling how many might have been killed or crippled had not the deck hands realized what was the matter and kept their heads. We're all right" they shouted; go back; it's nothing but break in the wheel" and with their hands they tried to wave the crowd back; but they might as well have tried to stay the winds. The crowd would have swept over them and many, in their frenzy, would uIl- doubtedly have jumped overheard, had not the doughty deck hands punched right and left at those in front or them. They didn't hesitate, either to br1lise the faces of the most obstreper- ous. After the paddle wheel was stopped and the excited passengers were made to realize what had been the A1. 4a nfI In " and became hysterical with joy. Mum bers of the widest tore down the life preservers. strapped them on. and pa raied up and down the decks, arm in arm. just as they did right after the re- cent collision when they realized that there was no danger. ... .-..
 There was a bit of family tragedy happened on this same occasion I speak of. A we'll known lawyer here in town. his wife and little child were sitting outside when the sounds of smashing timbers vihrated through the vessel and every heart stopped beating for the moment under the firm conyic- tion that the boat was sinking. This man turned pale. jumped up, seized a life preserver and rushed for the rail, where he stood prepared to jump over board and save himself at the first lurch of the vessel, When he realized that there was no danger, he dropped the life preserver. and, walking back to his wife, he extended his hand to pat her in the shoulder reassuringly. as he said: Well. there was no danger after all, my dear" She shrank back from him and pressed her child closer to her side. Don't" she said, don't ever touch me again. This ends it be tween us." And she got up and walked away from him. She kept her word, too. for the same week she began pro ceeGinEs for divorce.-~San Francisco l Town Talk.

The election held in waterbury

The election held in Waterbury a month or more agosis thing of the past, and every good citizen has al ready made up his mind to give the new officials all the encoura cement pos sIble for successful administration of city affairs. This, then, is hardly the time for the democrats to be washing and airing their linen. They fought the good fight aud were routed bag and baggage. It matters very little now who was treasurer of the town com mittee, so far as the election is con- cerned. If the law calls for an ac- counting Chairman Brophy should hasben to give 1t, He can do it, un- doubtedly, as he was the custodian of the "wad" and paid the bills. and If they all have been paid what's the use of further discussion. No use furnish ing food for enemies of the party to amuse themselves with.

Enlightened Americans once had
 more or less of a creed that aristoc- racy was state of mind; of late years 1t has come to mean state of purse, says writer in Everybody's Maga- zine. We. see today in New York a
 fashionable society which has no place for statesmen, authors, scientists, edi' tors, unless they are very rich, New port is still more frank in this rigor- ous exclusion. The multi millionaire set each summer ignores the naval off, ficers as their ships lie in the harbor. Even President Roosevelt was suffered to visit the place without social recog- nihon: in spite of his high ana ancient lineage, he is not rich enough to be in the social swim. Once 1t happened that Speaker Thomas B. Reed, while at the climax of his power, when he | was perhaps the most notable states man in America. was on a friends yacht in Newport harhor. That night social function was going on at a house where MT Reed was known and honored. but an Invitation to him could not be ventured: unimpertsnt person ages could be smuggled in because they were readily forgotten, but, the giant could not be bidden, for the so- cial break would be too conspicuous. $

How Gen. Miles Captured the south.
 General Miles," said a southern member of congress to the Washing ton correspondent of the New York Tribune, lis growing very popular south of Mason and Dixon's line. The change of sentiment began with a little speech he made some time ago at Char lottesville, Va, at session of the national good roads convention. I am glad to see a marked improvement in the roads in this part of Virginia, said General Miles. More than a gen. 'eration ago I tried to get over these roads, he continued, referring to his operations in the vicinity against Con- federate troops. but found nearly ev- cry highway absolutely impossible. This humorous and subtle tribute to the valor of southern arms was warm ly applauded in Charlottesville, and as the remark has travelled throughout the south it has won for the general pleas NM.D

It is the consensus of democratic opinion in washington among the clans of gathering democrats who came to the assembling of the fifty eighth congress that the democrats have much in the election at which to rejoice. Tn speaking on this question one of the early arrival democrats spoke as follows: We more than held our own in the state of Massa- chusetts, we kept our own in the little state of Rhode Island ~by re-electing our governor; We carried the state of Maryland not only for the state ticket but for United States senator: we car ried Kentucky by an increased major ity which eternally puts the kibosh on republican assassination in that state; we reduced the majority in the rock ribbed republican state of Iowa by at least 10000, and we made a clean sweep of the great city of New York. The latter was great victory for more than one reason. It was a vic tory for the great common people, for home rule, for democratic methods, and defeat for hypocrisy, false pre-, tense, the rule of the corporation and the aristocrat, 8 cold bath for the boot licks and syeephants who whine about the knees of predatory wealth.

 T will" said Mrs. Masehinski. "The house we live in needs a coat of paint, and I will paint it, but on one condi, tion, and that is that while am wear ing your trousers you cook the dinner for the family"
