that If a man wants a drink of water when
he is perambulating the town he doesn't
have to butt into a whisky shop to get it.
Now let me tell you something" con-
tnued the man from New England. IT was

as you see, and soon / wanted drink of
water. I never do drink anything but
water. and on this occasion felt as if I
wanted a gallon or so. but I couldn't find
any. I stopped a man on the street and
said to him: My friend do you know where
I can get a glass of water? He took me
into miserable GROCERY: We walked up
to the bar and he asked the man in charge
to give me a drink of water. 1 ought not
to have gone into the bar room, and would
not IL had known where I was going, be-
slightest encouragement. even that of my
presence. The man poured me out about
big thimbleful of water, when l wanted
celery glass full and it tasted of spirits to
me- Same way all along. l couldn't get
drink without violating my principles and
going into a gin mill. where I always got
second hand taste Of whisky or some other
poisonous stuff
''Therefore you ought to be grateful for
your pumps. A thirsty man walking along
the street isn't obliged to patronize rum
shop to get drink of water.

Editorial Omniscience Recognized.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The editor of newspaper would be the
last person in the world to contract the
scope of his Jurisdiction or to deprecate an
imputation Of universal knowledge. Occa-
sionally, however, even he is driven by his
admirers into at least the early stages Of
weathered cheek a faint recrudescence of
what used to be the blush of modesty.
Yesterday, for instance, Mr. G. G. Rorke
of Crown Point, Ind. sent to the Tribune
a letter to which such answers as can be
hastily summoned are herewith appended:
please answer the following questions
for the benefit of an out-of-town reader
II. Is 1T true that the Japanese are an
immoral race and that they always have a
second woman in the household not regu-
lar wife, but a sort of concubine?-(No not
always, but rarely)

and are hundreds of people walking the
streets of Berlin unemployed?-(Some time
shaken but now fairly normal conditions

and have straight hair?"-(Ask Senator
Tillman)
A man would be more than a human be-
ing If he were not profoundly touched by
being made the trusted object of such in
terrogations as these. And he would be
more even, than an editor if he did not
feel that they constituted complete reeog-
milton of his deserts. All that he can ejac-
ulate in thanks is: Yes, you have found
me out; but It's just my little foible, ON
niscience- Don't force me to be ostenta-
tious about It,"

on the continental divide.

Mr.. Parker enjoyed the cooling
proximity Of the lake when Denver
was receiving the first real share OF
hot weather. He also inspected the
enormous banks of glacial snow, some
Of them extending hundreds of feet or
