You may remember the story Of the
Widows cruise Of oil, told SO graphically
IN the Old Testament, how. the oil re-
newed itself as she neared the bottom of
the vessel It is believed that the full
story of the widows troubles has not yet
peen told, 1t seems that when the story
got abroad that the widow was getting her
OH in this irregular way that the agent Of
the Standard Oil company called on her
and protested against such interference
with the regular channels of trade. The
widow said that she could do nothing
about It. The agent then offered her Is
cents for the cruise. This she refused. The
agent retired but that afternoon the
Standard Oh company bought the property
which the widow was renting and gave
her ten days notice. The widow found
It impossible to obtain rent in the town,
as the landlords were afraid to offend the
Standard Oil company, so she left and
went to Jericho, where she kept boarders.
About this time the Damascus Baptist
university received a donation of 81 ,0OO,-
| 900 from Observation-Disclosures, whose diges-
| ton was so bad that he had to live on
grass for awhile. When the widow heard
of this she remarked:

We ought not to laugh at Uncle Galway
Davis for refusing to give up more than
$50, 1000 for 1.-THE fund" Uncle's life has
been one long training in not giving up,
but in slapping into the bank. And here
comes along a bunch of big-mitt states
men who pin a decoration on uncle's
breast and expect him to come down
handsomely for what they know and uncle
knows they know is a gilded brick of
mammoth proportions, in fact a gilded
cement buildfng-block. Uncle may be 81

to the game of bluff now being played by

Oklahoma comes to the front with the
story OF the Absent-Minded Bride or the
husbands Surprise. They were on their
wedding tour. One night while stopping
at the Illinois hotel at Oklahoma there
came series of terrible shrieks from the
room occupied by the bride and groom
Clerks, porters and employees generally
rushed upstairs, only to meet a frantic
female figure, clad in white, fleeing in des-
perate haste from the apartments, cry
Ing: oh, there's man in my room!" The
groom, one boot on and the other in his
hand, was the picture Of amazement He
explained that he had just come upstairs
from the billiard parlor and was In the

The same issue contains an article on the Comedie Franchise, written by Jules Claretie, director of the famous French playhouse, and illustrated with Gne portraits of the actors. An other important feature in this number is the opening chapter of The Confess sions of a Stage-Struck Girl" q narra- tive of theatrical life which claims to give one photographic Insight into the stage career, the writer being a young actress who has experienced all the scenes described.

It is the least thing In the world that could be said to call the Improvements Mr. Dan Dove has made in his Randy Kitchen extraordinary and most beauti- full Extraordinary in that no other house similar to his in tiie South is SO superbly furnished and eouipped-and beautiful on account of the new decora- lions and paintings on the walls ard ceilings. ....... .. ,. For six or seven weeks Mir. Dove has had corps of workmen busily engaged in tearing down those parts of his estab- lishment that needed repair. and in em- bcllishing and making exquisitely beauti- full those parts that were already passa- bly, pretty.
 The result is that today the Randy Kitchen may well be called the centre of enchantment for the sense of sight as well as the. somewhat more cultivated sense of taste-in fact veritable palace of luxury.
 The hand painted walls of the marble parlor present a beautiful aspect. Of a dark and pleasing color, the flowers that one can easily see were painted by 8 past master of that branch of the deco rative art can almost be said to stand out from the walls in life-like profus.on. Beautiful cupids cavort among palms of every variety on the vari-colored ceiling. and richly embeliished pottery contain flowers from every portion of the globe.

The Bohemian Pianist.

The appearance of Ottokar Malek who comes to the Montgomery Theatre Friday night is hailed by music lovers as an event of the greatest importance.
 Musical critics are unanimous in prais- ing his wonderful technic. his mastery of the keyboard. his finished rendition of the most difficult passages of the masters But beyond. and deeper than all this, there is that touch of genius and sym pathetic understanding of the mind of the composer, which enables Malek to con- vey. even to the unknowning, feeling and understanding of the piece he is expound- ing.
 His personal appearance and gentle manly bearing go far to explain the en- thusiastic welcome which Is accorded him by audiences of all degrees of musical culture There is nothing fantastic or eccentric either In his appearancesor man ner-nothing of the long-haired. wildly demonstrative musician. He plays without an effort the most diff ficult passages. hardly leaning this way or that. his long arms seeming all suf- ficient in reaching any part of the key board He accomplishes marvels with his wrists and fingers. and his chords and scales and trils are perfection.

A Sensible Governor.

PlttSDurg POSI-.
 Governor Montague, of Virginia. has re- fused to pardon John NJ. King. who was convicted of receiving bribe as an alder man of Richmond. and who was sentenc- ed to a years Imprisonment last June. The Governor declares the punishment provided by the law was wholly made quate to the offense committed. and that the stealing of property. either by rob bery of the person, breaking houses or iron safes. Is insignificant as compared to an offense which involves breach of official duty. the betrayal of public confidence and the undermining of our whole social fabric. Further. he asserts that the rule of the people is a mockeTy if their rights and interests are sold by those who are sworn to guard and pro- feet them. and that bribery and graft must not only receive judicial punish ament. but public condemnation.
 This Is the sOundest kind of doctrine and 1t cannot be pressed home too hard upon the consclenCes of the people The men in our City Councils and State Leg islatures. in our school boards or our tray the interests of their constituents are deserving of the severest and most
