Stumbling q Naturalist.

We have been hearing of boy who
thought he would like to be natural
ist if he received satisfactory encour-
agement from his parents. A micro
scope had been given to him on his
tenth birthday, and forsaking all other
interests, he devoted himself to the
study of nature with such ardor that
when dinner was announced on the
first day he was much excited over
the newly acquired knowledge, and
sought to give it ont for the enter
tainment of the people at the table.
Guests we're present, and turning to
the lady nearest to him, with smile
ing face he inquired:
"Did you ever look at cheese
through microscope?"
II do not remember to have done
so," she pleasantly replied, withdraw
ing from her lips the bit she was about
to eat.
"Well, you just ought to see the
things crawl on It,
"John," exclaimed his father, "eat
your dinner"
The lady quietly tucked the piece
Of cheese under the si3s Of her plate,
and John perceived that his informa-
tion On the subject WAS not wanted.
When Strawberries we're placed up
on the table John burst forth again.
"You ought to look at strawberry
through q microsoopeI They look
jus. Ike warts, and you think you can
see beasts running."-
"John,' said his mother.
"Weii, they look worse than a;ss'
heads protested the eager naturalist,
''for hies''-
Boy said the father, ''leave the
tablet
John went out, wondering why his
father wouldn't allow him to "talk
sense" when he really had something
to say.

Money in a Presidential Campaign.

Walter Wellman, writing in The
World to-day for October, says that
money does not play SO large part in
presidential campaign as is common
ly supposed. In explanation Of this
statement, he says: st is easy to ex
aggerate the Importance of money in
the management Of q presidential cam
paign- There is common im-
preston that nothing can be done
without q big sum in the till, that it
is money which makes the political
mare go and that she would not bulge
an inch without it. In point Of fact
money cuts small figure in the early
days of campaign. A few thousands
are needed, of course, to defrsy the
expenses Of headquarters, to pay rent,
salaries, printing bills, etc. But
these require only modest sums, and
actually the work Of the campaign is
well under way before any considera-
bic amount Of money is needed by the
national manager. Later on there
will be demand enough-usually too
much-for cash. And in year like
this, when rich men and railways and
banks and other corporations feel only
the most languid interest in the out.
come Of the campaign, it ia going to
be hard work indeed for Chairman
Cortelyou and Taggart to raise funds
sufficient to meet the calls made upon
them. Three-fourths of the money
spent by campaign committee is put
out in the last Is or 20 days preceding
the election. Indeed, some of the
shrewdest political managers I have
known maintained that, barring ordi.
nary clerical and printing expenses,
national committee wastes nine out
ten dollars Of all it spends till the
very day Of the election itself. and
that then the money should be used
for but one purpose, namely, that Of
getting out the vote"

here for long time occurred near

afternoon, the belligerents being Jim
Caldwell, the colored bootblack, and
his dusky better half. The genesis Of
the trouble between Caldwell and his
wife is involved in some obscurity, all
though 1t is asserted that 1t grew out
Of domestic infelicity arising from the
discovery Of the former that his spouse
was untrue to her marriage vows.
1t is alleged that indutiable proof
having been furnished Caldwell that
the partner of his household was not
faithful in observing the canons govern

strenuous protest to her conduct; in
fact. it is said that he attempted to
shoot the despoiler of his home and
only failed because the revolver he
carried refused TO discharge its deadly

was at stake and he felt constrained to
