The late p. Il. Barnum ywassknowR
as an ideal. host and, next to his inter
est in the greatest show on earth"
enjoyed nothing better than entertain
ing his friends at his house and table.
Among those. who visited him most
frequently at Lindeneroft or Waldo
mere and who gave the name TO the
last resident was Joel Ben-on, who
sometimes calls himself author of
prose and worse"
1t is a popularity OF this author
that, with one snghtlexception, he eats
neither butter nor milk.and,none of the
ordinary meats, not for any hygienic
or philosophical reason, but simply be-
cause they are distinctly unpalatable
to him. On one occasion, when q
young lady occupied 4 seat near Mr..
Benton at Mr.. Barnum's table, the

knew what She wanted.

One of the jokes that former Sena-
tor Davis enjoys telling is about lit
tie girl named Almon, WHO had been
put to bed alone, says the New York
Times. Presently she appeared in
her nightgown at the head of the stairs,
saying plaintively:
I'm lonesome"
Her mother gave her favorite rub
Der doll named Happy to take to bed
with her, but this did not seem to
please her, and in a few minutes she
again appeared with the same COM
plant. This time her mother remind
ed her that God was with her and sent
her back to bed with reproof. Soon
she was heard weeping bitterly, and
when her mother went to her little
Almon summoned up her sense of mis-
cry by exclaiming:
II don't want Happy, and l don't
want God. I want somebody WITH a
skin face"

The Hon. William E. Chandler, sec
rotary of the navy under President
arthur, tells this story Of Assistant
Surgeon Yer Mullen:
That officer was six feet four inches
In height, a fact that occasioned him
much discomfort when he was serving
on the old Penobscot, the height of the
vessel between decks being only five
feet eight inches. AS Surgeon Yer
Mullen considered the matter he re-
membered that long letters to the navy
department were not always given
that promp. attention he thought
should be afforded in the present in
stance, so he determined to approach
the authorities in a manner novel
enough to impress them with the grav-
fly of the situation. SO he addressed
his superior officer in this wise:
The Honorable the Secretary OF the
Navy:
Sir-Length of surgeon, feet 4; height
Of wardroom, 5 feet s, Respectfully,
E. c. YER MULLEN.
Assistant Surgeon. U. s. n.
Shortly after the navy department
detached Yer Mullen until such time
as a more suitable ship could be found
for his assignment" Week

toms of the Far East.
BY W. w. Jermane.

Washington, March 2O.-The ap-
pointment' of. W. W. Rockhill to be
United States minister to China is in
line with the president g policy Of
filling these important diplomatic posi-
tions with men Of acknowledged ability
and fitness. This appointment will
crafty Mr.. Rockhill's greatest ambi-
ton. He is an eminent orientalist and
traveller, and will doubtless prove him
self useful official. Mr.. Rockhill
began his diplomatic career as secretary
to the American legation in Japan, and
it was then that he became imbued with
desire to make a scientific study of
oriental questions. He obtained leave
of absence from Toxic, and set out dis
guised as a high priest, with two
native, attendants, to reach Lhasa, the
forbidden CITY,, He penetrated farther
into the forbidden country than any
white man had done up to that time,
and was finally put to flight because
one Of the provincial viceroys, learn
ing of his mission, set a price upon his
head.
AS a special commissioner to Picking
after the Boxer uprising, he was able
to contribute in an important way to
the solution Of the delicate problems
which grew out Of that affair. Of late
years Mr.. Rockhill has been director of
the bureau of American republics, where
he again proved himself man Of fine
talents and tireless industry.

That Allison quickly turned the ta-

to the senate, and Dobson and his
friends had the victory practically won
is regarded as sufficient evidence of the

Ex-Secretary Dobson did not conceal
his chagrin when he learned from a tel
