waiter elected by his fellows. At the
end of the week the sum was distrib-
uted. Three classes We're arranged by
the manager according to efficiency.

proportions, so that the Junior who

walters keep a jealous eye on their
fellows, and the man suspected of
pocketing a tip. finds his position un-
tenable. The system is good for the
public since it diminishes the unpleas-
ing personality of a charitable action.
1t is good, too, for the walters. since
that record of the weekly gratuities
showed that the best walters made
about $1,000 year in tins"

NAnoRs BUYING GEMS.

From the jewelers. Circular Weekly.
1t is said that the highest caste ma
tives of Siam, Burmah and India are
great buyers of all kinds of precious
stones and ornaments. This tendency
has even increased during the last few
years, on account of the prevailing be-
lief among natives that the only safe
way to invest money is to purchase
jeWelry and similar articles of intrin-
sic or sterling value. This is very much
in evidence in Siam and not much
less so in Burmah and India
The agent of leading European firm
states that it is astonishing what vast
sums of money have been and are be-
ing invested by Asiatic princes in dia-
monds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds and
pearls, and that some day, undoubted-
ly, the markets of the world would be
flooded with these boarded supplies. He
also said that he knew of one In
dian rajah who purchased all the
pearls that were brought to him, and
that the native fishermen would de-
liver to him rather than to any for
eigner. The majority of these pearls
were either boarded or distributed
among the women of his court. whose
desire for jewelry is never satisfied,
while fair portion was used as pres
ents to his fellow princes in India and
other countries.
An American cannot fully appreciate
the vast amount of valuable stones
and like ornaments used by the royal
and princely families of these Oriental
nations unless he beholds them arrayed
in all their glory on state occasions.
Then 1t seems almost a wonder that
any are left for the American and
European markets.

FREE TRADE UTTERANCEs APP
PLAUnEn

Mr.. John Merely of the British Par
lament was somewhat surprised hv
the applause which his free trade nj
terances called forth at the one hmm
bred and thirty-sixth dinner of the
New York Chamber of Commerce. ON
Tuesday night. There were four HIM.
bred men at the banquet, nearly all of
whom were multi-millionaires. No
doubt there were among them many
who owed their fortunes to the uro-
tective tariff system. or who have IN
terests now which depend for success
upon that system.
Among the most enthusiastic of the
applauders was Andrew Carnegie.
Why did he applaud? Doesn't he owe
his vast wealth to the protective sys
tenn? And even now, are not his $500 !.
100000 of bonds based upon the steel
trust, which is one of the greatest ben
ehciaries of the protective system2
Perhaps Mr.. Carnegie thinks the
steel trust would survive a big reduc-
ton Of the duties on steel products
would, in fact. be more prosperous
without tariff protection than 1t is with
it., If so why doesn't he and other
steel magnates advocate tariff reduce
ton? Why do they stick to a party
that win not reduce the tariff schemes
and assist it with their money?
1t is worthy Of notice that j. Pier
pont Morgan didn't applaud Mr.. Nor
| ley. He is protectionist who believes
in standing by his colors and his par
| ty. While MIR. Morley was speaking
he gave no sign that he was interest
ed. He probably felt that if Mr.. Nor
ley's free trade notions had been in
force in this country during the last
half dozen years he wouldn't have been
able to make the great industrial COM
binations he did.
| But II free trade is so popular with
the captains of industry and million
aires as It appeared to be at the New
York Chamber of Commerce dinner,
why is It that It is impossible to get
| Congress to make even a reduction in
our extraordinarily high tariff rates.
Perhaps the millionaire applauders
have an explanation Of their seeming
approval of Mr.. Morley's free trade
views.

A forlorn-looking mongrel stood on
the corner of Tenth and Vine streets
the other morning, looking eagerly at
everybody that passed by him, says the
Philadelphia Press. Finally two we'll
dressed women passed, and with a was
or his stunpy tail he followed them
showing his Joy by a succession OF
short, sharp banks which caused the
women to turn, and when they saw
the dog they chased him away with
their umbrellas.
The animal, with his tail droopy and
his ears down, went back to his cor
ner and as a well-dressed man went
by attempted to follow him, but re-
ceived similar encouragement. Finally
he made a third attempt, trailing or
the rear of ragged, unkempt man
who seemed to find something con-
genial between his own and the dogs
rortorn looks, and when last seen the
mongrel was frisking around the man
who seemed to find pleasure in his
noisy Joy.

The Pig Did 1t All.

An old story. said to have originated
with the immortal Tom Corwin OF
Ohio, is now recalled in a timely way
to illustrate the value of a single vote
says the Baltimore American. A
Rhode Island farmer of 1911 on his
way to the polls was too late to vote
because he stopped to rescue one of his
pigs which was wedged in a fence
crack. He was a Federalist and op-
posed to the war. A Republican, or
war man, was elected to the legisla-
ture from his district by one vote. The
legislature elected by one vote a war
senator, whose one vote in the United
States Senate in 1912 confirmed the
nomination of Jackson as major gen
eral of the United States army. Gen.
eral Jackson became the idol of the
country, was elected President, kicked
all the Wings out of office, withdrew
all moneys from national repositories
and kept the country in constant hot
water, all through one Rhode Island
farmer who thought more of his pig
than his vote.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York World (Dem.) says:
Justice Harlan puts to shame those
timid patriots who would be satisfied
with a navy as big as Englands by
coming out boldly for one equal to all
the other navies in the world COM
bined-one beginning, that is to say, at
a cost OF about $500, 900 900 year, with
prospects of indefinite growth. Thus
the Robson party, originally consisting
OF Capt Hobson in solitary grandeur,
has increased by 100 per cent, growth
that throws the Roosevelt vote into the
shade"
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.)
says: IF the race problem can be
solved at all 1t is by the very method
adopted by the Southern states in the
amendments to their constitutions. BY
these amendments the ignorant negroes
are admitted to suffrage as soon as
they learn to read their ballots and
pay the small assessments OF poll tax.
Thus, with time and patience, what
has presented the most grave difficult
ties and dangers is In a fair way OF
solution. Instead of quarreling with
the Southern people for their wise re-
straints upon ignorant exercise of the
ballot II would be wen II the Northern
states should follow their example,"
The Baltimore sun says: There Is
no question as to the Cars present
determination TO succeed. He Is maxi
ing a great effort. But where there's
a viii there is not always a. way. The
laps are equally determined, and 80
far have been the more successful.
They. too. have plenty OF troops and

REPTILE IN STOMACH.
From the Dies Moines Capital.


A reptile in her stomach of a char
acter never before met with or heard
of by the physicians in attendance.
caused the death last night of Stella
Weston, the 14-year-old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Erastus ]. Weston, 2204
School street.
The reptile was removed from the
glrrs stomach Monday by an opera
ton. 1t is twelve and a half inches
long and about seven inches In cir
conference. The physicians describe
the creature as the oldest monstrosity
which ever came under their eyes. 1t
Is incased in a sort OF tortoise SHE'LL
with an odd name from head to tail
and with tuft or hair at it's snout.
The odd specimen was examined
this afternoon in the Office Of DR.. Linn.
DR.. Joseph Drake was the attending
physician and several other members
of the profession were called in. The
case appears to be without precedent
in the medical world. The reptile is
totally different from so-called tape
worms. 1t is believed the case will at
tract wide interest among medical
men.
1t is the belief of the physicians
that the reptile had grown in the
girls stomach all her life.

SETTING GARDNER RIGHT.

Representative Gardner of the Sixth
Massachusetts district, who. it seems
is a son-in-law of Senator Lodge, had
an impression, apparently. that he
was the distributor of the federal pat
ronage of his district. He wanted to
name postmaster for Haverhill post
office, the term of the incumbent hav-
ing expired. The incumbent, however,
had been recommended by Mr.. Moody,
now Attorney General, but who was
Mr.. Gardner's predecessor. Mr.. Moody
thought the incumbent ought to be re-
tanned, and so stated. and the Presi-
dent agreed with him. as there was
nothing against the man, and much
in his favor. Thereupon Mr.. Gardner
got on his high horse" as it were,
and wrote to the President in a fresh
and breezy way. which some of the
Presidents friends thought was a lit
tie short of impudent.
The President. however, thought it
would be better to reply to the letter
az if he thought the congressman
didn't know exactly the limit of his
privilege in the matter of patronage
rather than answer him as he de-
served.
He told him that the President was
responsible for all appointments. but
that as the constitution gave the SEN
ate some authority in the matter of
filing the offices, senators from the
state in which the appointment was
to be made were consulted, but their
advice wasn't always followed. Mr..
Gardner was told that representatives
had no voice in making appointments,
though they were sometimes consulted
about those of their respective dis
tricts.
1t is probable that Mr.. Gardner
doesn't now think MIR. Roosevelt is as
great man as he thought him before
this matter relating to the HaverhiIl
postmastership came up.
1t is evident that the President feels
free to speak his mind freely on the
subject OF appointments or any other
subject now that he Is assured of an
other term of four years and doesn't
intend to be a presidential candidate
again. And he has taught Mr.. Gard
ner a lesson which win be OF service
to other congressman as well as to Mr..
Gardner. 1t Is calculated to make
them understand that in Washington
they don't amount to a great deal,
and that no part of the federal pat
ronage belongs to them.
When next Mr.. Gardner asks for the
privilege of naming a postmaster in
his district 1t is probable that he will
assume humber attitude. and will
ask as a favor what he once demand
ed as a right.

The Weather Nam.

From the Somerville Journal.
The man who tries to tell us what the
weather's going to be
Has never heard me sigh with grief
because / am not he.
In fact, 1 wouldn't take his Job, no
matter what the pay
Might be. because should so hate to
hear what people say.
II he's the least bit sensitive. his heart
must surely ache
To hear the unkind comments that so
many people make.
He's sure to start wall OF woe, no
matter what he does.
And every prophecy awakes a harsh.
discordant buzz.
Let him predict a pleasant day-the
farmers all complain
Because their crops are drying up, and
they have prayed for rain.
Then, when he sees them looking sad
because their crops are sere,
He cheers them up with: Frequent
showers" and thousands say:
"Oh. dearl"
OF course, you do not need 20 have me
tell you here IN rhyme
That all the world would starve with
pleasant weather all the time.
We can't have rain and sunshine both

And different folks want different
things, ana some one must give
way.
The moral A. OF course: Don't kioki
II won't DO any good.
For everything VIII have 10 20 as
Nature thinks n should.
And when the prophecies don't please,
don't blame the weather man.
He cant please everybody, and he
