7arker's Long Sentence.

Judge Parker seems partial to the
long sentence. He begins his speech
with one of TO words, which is GER
tainly far above the average. This
is Immediately followed by sentences
containing SO. 70, 40, IS and 1856
words. This is an average of 70
words each for the first six senten-
ces. Scattered through the speech
are sentences containing Sc, 104. 81,
lO2, 63, 81. &c. 103, 10, 70, CT, 40, and
81 words. There are as we count,
3 sos words in the address, and 81
sentences, which gives an average of
a little over 4S words to the sentence.
This is quite unusual Macaulay was,

25 words to the sentence, as compar-

1 BY a lively song and equally itNCty
chorus of Campaign cries" the per

{. at the Aerial Roof Garden last night
was changed for the time being tEto
q political demonstration in which
I Democrats and Republicans We'd with
each other in applause for their re.
spective Presidential candidates, says
! the New York Herald.
1t all came about when in the min.
| song in which he mentioned cam.
paigns past and present. There was
| the campaign song of WashinStoa'S
days, with the familiar First in War.
| First in Peace and First III the
Hearts of His Couutrymen.'' After
that the once well known "1lppe-
canoe and Tyler Too" aroused the ar.
dieuce from the usual roof garden
calm, which was intensified when the
verse changed to the campaign of
1854 and the names of Blaine and
Cleveland appeared.
The applause to this time had been
perfunctory. but 1t heightened at the
conclusion of chorus of What's
the matter with Grover? He's all
right" There was general applause
for the verse in which President Nc,
Kinley was mentioned. but at the
first line of the next verse there WIS
roar. This verse was:
When Cuba's f1owery land
Rose against a tyrant band
And called on Uncle Sam for them
his best to try and do,
The bold Rough Rider Teddy.
For the battlefield was ready.
And then away. straight away, the
imperial eagle flew.
For Roosevelt came,
And won his fame,
On San Juan hill amid storm and
strife.
A cheer then for our Teddy,
Who is ever strong and ready,
And cheer for the Strenuous life.r
Again and again one-half the au-
as men, made Mr.. Schiller repeat his
verse, but they subsidized at last when
the next verse began:-
Now we meet another name.
Till of late unknown to farle.
But soon it will be great. you may
depend on that.
For way down in old Esopus,
Free from bluff and hocus-pccus,
You will find man who is a right
real Democrat.
His honesty has won for him
Great respect from men of all kinds
in the crowd.
Be his chances bright or darker.
Give a cheer for brave Judge Par
ker.
And let it be tiger, good ami loud.
1t was a cheer from the silent half
If the crowd which drowned the cho-
'us and the orchestra and even
drowned Mr.. Schiller, and it was re
nforced when man in box gave
/ loud cheer for no one in particular,
md Mr.. Schiller was compelled to
sing both verses over again.
For a New York audience it was
,ery evenly divided in the cheers.
The chorus appeared to be impartial.

The unauthorized reproduction Of
a paragraph from an old letter of
mine, Which appeared in the Ameri-
can Grocer three years ago. has got
me into a scra pc. and subjected me
to calls from many pestilent report
ers, and interviews on the subject of
tobacco.
Il would therefore be glad to have
you say in answer to many Inquiries
by letter and urgent demands from re-
porters that I began to smoke sweet
fern cigars, as most boys do, when e
youngster. One day. placing myself
on our country piazza beside my
father, who was smoking a good Ha-
vana, l put my long sweet fern cigar
into my mouth and began to puff. l
did not notice that he had q little cane
in his hand, and that he was watching
me out Of the corner of his eye.
Presently the little cane came rount
and my sweet-fern landed in the MID
die of the lawn. My father then quiet
~ remarked GO aud pick it up il
you want to. I advise you not to
smoke. I took his advice. 1t was ex
cellent, and served most useful pur
pose for very many years.
