yOuH Gle like a fOotpad.
Mr.. Leife was usually slow, I'M
ready speaker, but now he was. SO
wrought upon that it seemed as if his
very nature were changed, and his
words came fast and free. Indeed, he
had not finished. but the patience OF
the man he was denouncing gave out,
and as the curate paused for mo-
ment on the word "footpad," he took
a step forward and struck the speaker
a blow with his clenched fist full on
the mouth; such blow it was that
Mr.. Leife went down on the ground
with heavy thud.
But he was no chicken, and in a mo-
ment was on his feet again. And he
turned his head over his shoulder.

Then the curate pulled off his coat.

Aye, aye, SIR came from half a
dozen threats, and, as if encouraged
by the sound, Mr.. Leife walked up to
Trip and aimed a blow at his Jaw
which he parried by a chopping stroke
of his right arm. After that they stood
foot to foot, fighting furiously. They
were both big men, but-for their size
quick in their movements, especial
" Trip. There was, however, no
great room for many antics, and both
men seemed in deadly earnest, raining
blows upon one another till it seemed
one of them must inevitably give way
before long. 1t was obvious that Trip
was the better boxer Of the two, and
the curate's face was soon bruised and
battered almost past knowing. In
wrestling the difference was less
marked, and more than once Trip got
a heavy fall.
Hit him in the wind; his legs are
going whispered Postlethwaite, and
Mr.. Leife took the advice, offering his
head for punishment, and giving in re-
turn a tremendous drive just above the
belt. Tt was meantsto be and was a
regular staggerer. Bewildered by sud-
den distress, Trip almost doubled up,
let his head come forward. and imme
8diately received a heavy jolt on the
jaw that nearly sent him down. Ger
tain now OF Imminent victory, the
curate pressed on. throwing caution to
the winds. Indeed his opponent seem
ed hardly able to keep his feet, and
dropped to the ground without a blow
time after time. Suddenly there came
an unexpected change. Thrice in sue
cession had Trip fallen, and each
time he seemed slower to rise ard
feebler to guard. The curate grew
sick of hitting a beaten man
That'll do. @think, q he said, put

As he spoke he turned round to look
for his coat.

Postlethwaite, but before he could
place himself in position Trip was
upon him with a spring like that Of

"PULL" WAS ON HIS DOOR.
And It Seemed to Contradict the Con-
tractors Little Sermon
on Success.

Lincoln Steffens, the author Of 'The
Shame of the Cities" was talking
about a Pittsburg contractor who
thrives more through political infiu-
ence than through business ability, re-
lates an exchange.
Il heard something about this man
the other day" he said, that may or
may not be true If it isn't true. 1t
should be. for it is certainly appro-
pirate.
"A young man called on the con-
tractor and asked for a job. The con-
tractor wouldn't give him job. for ne
had voted the wrong way in the last
election. He read him a lecture.
though, on his poor success-told him
it was a shame, at his age. to be out
of work. and so forth-and then wound
up impressively:
My boy, the door to every success

The young man assumed a puzzled
look.
But your business is fairly sue
cessful, isn't it, he asked.

Capacity.

woman customer as she left a pair Of
opera glasses for repairs at Chestnut
street store. 81 can't hear well at the
theater without them"
Another customer who was waiting
smiled, when the woman left. at her
apparent mistake, says the Philadel-
phia Record. She meant she couldn't
see," he observed.
NO" rejoined the opucian, she
meant Just what she said. Opera
glasses are an aid to hearing as well
as to sight. You can prove It any
time you are seated well toward the
rear IN q theater by training the
glasses on q singer. AS long as you
keep the singer under scrutiny with
the glasses you will be able to follow

EMPEROR WILLIAMS PIPES.
Tha Kaiser Has Discovered That They
Afford 5veeter Smokes
Than Cigars.

II n only recently that Emperor Viii
liam appears to have made the dis
covsry that a pipe is q sweeter smoke
than a cigar, and with his customary
enthusiasm he has become an admirer
Of fine pipes, says the New York Her
aid.
More than a score Of extremely
handsome pipes decorate his personal
rack In his smoking room, but Of these
many have never been filed and Others
have been set aside after their first
dedication to MY Lady Nicotine"
Some few have second place in his az
fections. and are occasionally filled and
lighted, but for his regular use he has
one pipe. made from a design drawn
by himself and worked out by we'll
known artist
The meerschaum bowl is large. even
for a German pipe, and Is provided
with a stem Of Turkish wood. A clus-
ter of leaves Is the decoration Of the
howl. while the stem is ornamented
with a large silver W, on which q
bird is perched.
In this handsome pipe is smoked
only a special blend Of Cuban to-
baccos prepared for the emperor and
Imported direct. Most Havana to-
baccos are poor pipe mixtures, but this
blend appeals peculiarly to his majesty
and he refused to experiment with any
other mixture.

girl "a a little too fair. 1t Is too pure
and too suggestive Of vegetarian diet'

But the classic complexion endures.
Il is found most often in Italy and II Is

plexion. You sweat out the impuri-
ties" explained a Virginia girl to a
friend more truthfully than POLITICALLY.
OF late years the American girl is re-
ioicing in this skin, and on the street
of an afternoon among the best groomed
girls one will see a dozen or so with
this classic skin. 1t is not white, nor
brown, not pink. nor yellow. 1t is olive,

through which the May winds and the
July sunshine cannot hope to break.

to say about her smooth skin and its
treatment:

RAISED LADDERS IN [ SECONDS.

New Fire Truck Tested and the Rec
 ord Broken.
 New York, July 2S.-Commissioner Hayes and Chief Croker among others witnessed at Fire Hearquarters yes terday the test of a new truck on which a 75-foot extension ladder was raised from it's bed on the truck to a correct position against the side of a building in seven seconds. breaking all records. As result Commissioner Hayes ordered that the new. truck be put into service on trial.
 With the aid of compressed air q steel tank of 300 pounds capacity un- der the drivers seat, connected with two small cylinders. three men-one operating the compressed air device lifting the bed ladder and two with a crank extending the ladders-accom plished the feat with perfect ease. In hand hOisting six men are required. and under ordinary circumstances it takes several minutes to elevate the ladders by hand power.
 The inventors of the fire truck are Edward F. Dahill and James R. God dard of New Bedford. Mass. It is manufactured by the Pneumatic Aeri- al company of New Bedford 's.
