His Reason.

\ favorite story of relative of the
late George De Forest Grant was of Il
correspondence which took place between
him and Mrs. Bradley Martin at Il Cali
fOrnia hotel Mr.. Grant was the first to
arrive and had secured satisfactory ac-
commodations on the first sleeping room
floor, which were desirable because the
house was not supplied with elevator
service.
\ few days later Mrs Martin came
and got room for herself on the first
floor, but her daughter had to go to the
floor above. Learning that her neighbor
was a New Yorker, Mrs. Martin adj
dressed a note to him thus:
Mrs. Bradley Martin presents her
compliments to George De Forest Grant
and begs that he will exchange rooms
with her daughter"
Mr.. Grant was not disposed to be gal
liant at the moment and sent this reply:
Mr.. Grant presents his compliments
to Mrs. Bradley Martin and would like
to ask if her daughter drinks
His answer was followed by an indig
nant note assuring Mr.. Grant that her
daughters habits We're altogether cor
rect. To which Mr.. Grant sent his re-
grets that he could not comply with the
request since her daughter did not drink
ana he did, and consequently the stairs
would be easier for her than for him.

Twain heard her story and wrote both

ter Of the Royal lakes at Rangoon and

readily attacking any man or animal
that happens its way. The female is
especially irritable during the season OF
modification and as the adult snake at
talns a length Of from twelve to fifteen
feet, is superlatively swift and active,
and possesses a poison fang three inches
i'll length and charged with a very pow
ertul venom, it will be admitted that
Ophiophagus elaps, naia bungarus or ser
pentlyore, as it is also called, is a foe
that had better be avoided.
While being neither an arboreal nor
a water snake, the Ophiophagus eIaps
climbs trees with facility and takes to
water readily, swimming with great ease
and skill. It's poison is as deadly in its
effect as that of the lesser hooded snake
ithe OphiophaSus elaps also carries Il
hood the cobra; but it is believed that
the action Of the venom is not quite so
rapid.
The shortest period within which it
proved fatal to a fowl was fourteen
minutes, while Il dog expired in two
hours and eighteen minutes. Nicholson

GIVE UNCLE SAM A CONCERT.
Thirty-four Hungarians Held Up at Ellis
Island

Held up at Ellis island. thirty-four
Hungarian lads charmed with music
those who would bar their entrance to
the United States. They also gave the
immigration officials, employees and about
$500 men. women and children from
across the sea a band concert, the first
at Ellis island for ten years. The boys
are from IA to Is years old, and under
the management of Johann Weber. who
trained them and brought them to Amer
lea. The officials wanted proof that they
were not contract laborers and were not
liable to become a charge on this coun-
try. So the concert was ordered in the
office of the board of inquiry presided
over by Maj. Charles Semsey, who
served on Kossuth's staff and fed with
him to America. The boys played with
out notes and with dash and brilliancy
several Hungarian marches. When told
that they had qualified as musicians and
might enter America they cheered and
then appropriately played Sousa's STARS

FOR MEMS SUMMER WEAR.
Fancy Hat Bands, Golf Handkerchlefs,
Popular Belts and Collars.

Fancy hat bands will be more gen.
orally worn during the coming summer
than ever before. All straw hats are
now offered trimmed with plain black
or fancy coIored bands. Young men
will desire to possess a variety Of bands,
and every retailer should carry stock.
The bands appear in all colors, have tiny
hooks for fastening, and can be put ON
or taken off in a jiffy.
Golf handkerchiefs, which are on the
old style bandanna order, but in madden
colors,. will be Worn about the neck and
around the waist this summer. This is
an English fad, and is quite attractive,
and, where many happen to be playing,
even picturesque.
The ''coatless' brace is one which most
likely is destined to become popular. 1t
is worn under the overshirt and over the
undershirt, and is not seen when a man
is Invested of coat and waistcoat.
Shepherd plaid neckwear seems to
have become quite the thing. The most
attractive is a half inch check in two
toned effects.
Brown, a shade which Las had quite a
run in mems scarfS suSpenders, ETC.,
seems to be going out. Reseda, cadet
blue, Quaker gray, soft tan and medium
fancy tints are much worn.
The popular width in belts will be one
inch The proper buckle will be square
and made of gold plate, gun metal and
oxidized, and the leather black calf pig
skin and seal.
The rundown collar which is gaining
in favor by those who do not wear the
standing is much lower than the one
that has been worn for several years
1t is cut back more in front and has
about a half inch space; in fact, it much
resembles the style worn ten years ago.

too much for his feet and he stumbles
