Governors Son Makes a Speech
Which Proved to Be a Sure
Winner.

"Spatters'" father was to de-
liver a stump speech at San Diego
in his own behalf as a candidate
for governor of Cal tOrnia. While
practicing the speech, mounted on
a hogshead, he fell in and broke
his leg, relates Sarah ComstOck,
in Lippincott's Magazine.
Spatters had been a rapt lis
tener to his fathers elOquence
and in the evening the little boy
appeared before the meeting to
deliver the speech from memory:
"Gentlemen, l know the speech
and it's a corker. This is it:
Friends, San Diegans, behind us
lies the past; before US lies the fu'
ture.'" His little freckled hand
stretched to the future while the
left pushed back the past. It'll has
been nobly said that we shall reap
as we have sOwn; in many cases.
therefore, we must reap the fruit
of poisonous seeds. But each year
brings its new sowing; what do
we now choose to plant|"
The crowd was surging towards
the platform in its enthusiasm,
but Eary and Bill held it back and
motioned to the child to proceed.
1.-THE choice is worthy of con.
sideration,' the speech flowed
on, every word, every gesture as
he had heard and seen. The
whole country will hail the day -
ne cried, and finally: "'Arise, San
Diegans; | stand here before you
to emphasize-to emphasize"
He turned cold with fear. He
could not remember what came
next. He struck the platform say
agely with his right foot, struck it
over and over, but the gesture did
not bring the words. Then he re.
membered why. "Oh, | didn't hear
no more" he said, forgetting the
paternal warning. THAT was
where dad fell into the hogshead.''
Big tears began to streak his
cheeks. "Oh, if could only say
the rest, | could make you vote for
us sure" he burst out, but won't
you do it anyway? PIl be an all
right governors son and he'll
make the best governor you ever
had cause he's an A No. 1 dad"

GEMS AND CASH BURNED.
Aged Aunt Leaves Fortune in Old
Corsets and Curl Papers, But
Fire Consumes All.

Some years ago a man in Eng
land had an aged aunt who died,
leaving him sole legatee to all her
personal estate. When he came
to examine into her effects there
was nothing worth carrying away.
OF the diamonds and money which
she had possessed in abundance
nothing could be found. In an at
tic was an old chesr, filed with an
cient, worn out cOrsets, and, worse
still, old curl papers. In his anger
and disappointment he had this
carried down into the garden, and
a bonfire made of the whole. AS
the fire burned. he savagely thrust
in his stick and turned over one of
the discolored curl papers. 1t un-
rolled and discovered itself as a
bank note Of large denomination
Frantically he dashed his hands
among the flaming cOrsets to re
cover the rest of the despised curl
papers, but he succeeded in saving
only a few. The rest were de
strOyed. So he called a servant
had the dust and debris swept VI
and the whole carted off by scav
engers. He had managed to scrap,
upoply a few hundred dollars from
the estate, where he had eXpectet
more than that number If thou
sands. He could not nnderstan
it; but there the matter stood fo
some days.
Then he came across an oil
woman who had previously bee
in the service Of his aunt. He tol
her of his mystifcatiOn at bein
unable to find any of the diamond.
"Why, yes, sir was the T.
sponse. II knows missus alway
had a lot of diamonds. She sticke
EN- all into her old corsets and pl
'em away in a box"
