Of some dignihed and able treatises on
serious topics, does not wish his repu-
Iation as writer to rest on the little
book of verses that brought him fame
more than thirty years ago. That he
prefers to be thought of as an American
statesman and dipoimat, and not as the
author of Little Brooches" There is
undoubtedly some foundation for the
story, and certainly Mr.. Hay does not
refer to his ballads with particular en-
thusiasm, If at all.
Ard yet there are indications that the
astute statesman is not so much asham-
ed OF his first little feGsinss, as he seems;
that he cherishes a secret affection for
them, which If generally known, would
spoil the story that has been so indus
triously circulated. Here is just one
fact that substantiates the suspicion:
One OF the first objects that attracts

at the bottom to convey the inforrna-
ton that the figure represented is Jim

matrimonial enthusiasm. whose heroisrn

BARON Won STERNBURG
DISLIKES ALL TITLES

1t is not very often that an oppor-
tGnity is afforded TO meet a man with
titles who does not care TO have them
connected with his name, but Washing
ton has such man in the Diplomatic
Corps at present The German ambas-
sador, Speck Won Sternburg, is baron
and frciherr. His rank in the nobility
and the honorable titles ne has inherited
give him a standing as high as his rank
In the corps But rank and titles are
to the representative of the German
Emperor as nothing in comparison to
what man has actually done He
shares the American sentiment that
what man accomplishes is far more
honorable than any amount OF inherited
wealth and rank. To his friends he is
'-Speck," without any embellishments.
His marriage TO an American girl NAV
have led him TO ADOPT the love of demo
cratic simplicity. He aGmires President
Roosevelt and enterIains strong liking
for all Americans. OF course, it goes
without saying that the progressive
young ambassador is exceptionally nom
ular in Washington. He is entertained
very extensively and every hostess in
the Capital tries to secure his presence
at dinners.
There are three houses in the CITY
where he is entertained more than in
all the others combined. One of these
is the home OF a Senator who is now
enc of the greatest powers in Congress.

To get at the money thus guarded
means a considerable expenditure of

on the verge of a purchase he is dis

that three of the largest would cover
the top of a quart measure, which had
been done by one of the men on the
farm, and shown to the owner. In quot
ing from his dairy report he confused
quarts and gallons, and said that one OF
his cows had given certain number OF
gallons of milk the proceeding day,
when he should have said quarts
This was enough for some OF the wags
at the club. and, after they had retired
to the billiard room and received re-
.freshments. they emerged with a mar
velous tale. They told of a breed of
cattle owned by Mr. Glover that never
went dry. That each and every cow in
the herd yielded a fabulous number of
gallons Of milk twice day. After they
had told the story several times the
COWS were giving ar least fifty gallons
at each milking They also took up
the stra wberry crop, and swore solemn
" that the berries were SO large that
three of them would more than fill
quart, and finally they ted of one that
could not be put inside a quart meas

But Mr. Glover took their chatting

tinues to give il just the same atten-

he was above ali things qualified to

This did not altogether please the
client He inquired what the bumps
had 10 say about law, having in mind
the years of study he had made with
that profession in view. The phrenolo-
gfst held up his hands in horror. II
there was one thing the young man be-
fore him must avoid 1t was the study OF
law. He might do fairly well IN any
other profession, but as e lawyer he
would prove q miserable failure
This was too much The leaned trea-
tises on the science OF bumps were dis
carded. and the study OF law renewed
with increased energy. Justice Brewer
knew that he would make a great law

world every thought of him is connected
with straight business and observing
the almost unlimited number of claims
made for his attention by an endless
chain of callers at his private office
durin0 business hours, it is not sur-
prising that most people suppose him to
be completely absorbed in his financial
and other business interests.

road magnate forgets business inter

During business hours Mr. Glover
makes ightning-like decisions in a
dozen deals of a different nature one
after the other. His single word is s1f
fcient to insure success in a business
undertaking, and his nod goes further
than an hours talk from the average
fEiancier. But at the farm his character
is changed.
The possible effect of the weather on
his crops causes him to hold long and
earnest conversations with his foreman
Hours are devoted to the health and
happiness of his biooded cattle and a

very proud of his stock and the product

received verbally from the head of his
dairy concerning the number of quarts
of milk some of the cows gave. At
about the same time his strawberry
acreage yielded some unusually large
berries.

JUDGE JOHN GoODE
AND HIS INVENTION

Everybody in Washington and Vir-

does not know OF the invention the gen

check upon favorite vice. The scheme
has worked so successfully that the
judge mas impaired its nature to a few
friends that they might go and do like
wise.
Judge Goode is 4 Virginian OF the old
school with all of the virtues and 4 few

latter category is a reckless desire 10
