Irish Courtesy,

An Irishman has oftentimes such
particular regard for the feelings of
stranger that rather than contra
diet him he will appear to acquiesce
in many things that he could not be
expected to believe. / said he will
appear to acquiesce. A tourist who
was sailing upon Loeb Erne once
wished to test the alleged character
of lrishmen for politeness. Now,
there was regular squa1l on, and
at a moment when the old boatman
was engrossed and had all his ener-
gies bent to keep the little craft be-
fore the wind the inquisitivc one,
leaning over to the old boatman,
shouted in his ear, Every little wind
today" Every little indeed" was
the reply, "but what there is of it
is mighty strong" ."-Leslie's Maga-
zine.

singular and peubl. Bishops.

1t is not generally known, says a
biographer of Nineteenth Century
Ecclesiastical Celebrities" that at
one time there was remarkable
similarity between the family names
of the bishops of Exeter and Wor-
cester, so much so, in fact, that one
looked like the plural of the other,
the one being spelled Philpott and
the other Philpotts.
This remarkable coincidence af-
forded the bishop of Exeter an op-
portupity of perpetrating a joke at
his brother Worcester's expense. Re
ferring to him on one occasion, the
bishop of Exeter spoke of him as:
my singular brother of Worces-
ter"
"Ah" retorted the bishop, who
was well known for his manly
straightforwardness "There ia moth
ing double about me-"

oriain Of Wards.

The origin Of words is often curl
Gus. Take "quiz," for instance.
This came from wager laid BY a
Londoner that he could coin a word
that would be on the lips of every
one on the following day. He then
went forsas and wrote "Quiz" on the
walks, fences and walls and bill
boards Of the city. The next day
every one was inquiring what it
meant, and the word thus got its
meaning, The word "tip" originated
in the old coffee houses of London.
At the door was brass box with a
slit in it. Engraved upon it usu-
ally were the letters ''T. /. P.," an
abbreyiation for the words '"To in
sure promptness." Customers as
they departed dropped coins in the
box for the walters.

Tho Malay Fishers.

Crew of Malay fishing vessels in
the Indian ocean are thus described
by traveller: "Some of the Malays
have not bad features, but others
again are awful looking villains.
Every one has his creese, or sort
of chopper, at his side, and with
bright red lips and black teeth,
caused by chewing the betel nut,
looks anything but inviting or fas-
cinating. The crew live principally
on rice and the fish they catch.
They carry lot of cocoanuts and
cocoanut oil, and apparently for a
luxury sort of sweetmeat made of
a coarse treacle and rice mixed to-
gether and firmly pressed into bam-
boos."

would not only give us the house next

as well as the senate of the United

Sure 10 30 the Case.

II can't tell you," said the expe-
rienced suburbanite in reply to the
question of his new neighbor,
when the next train goes, but i can
tell you what your chances of catch
ing it are"
"What are they?" inquired the
new neighbor eagerly.
"Well, if you run as hard as you

''you have fifteen minutes to wait,

Equal 20 the Emergency.

An old admiral well known for his
power of exaggeration was describ-
ing a voyage at supper one night.
"While cruising in the Pacific" he
said, ''wc passed an island which
was positively red with Holsters"
But" said one Of the guests,
smiling incredulously, "lobsters are
not red until boiled"
"0f course not" replied the un-
daunted admiral, ''but this was a
volcanic islahdwith boiling springs" "

Little Alice is old for her years.
One evening after bhe had gone to

A Humbuc.


Civil service reform as practiced by
this administration is a mysterious
thing, an elusive thing, deceptive
thing-a humbug. The pretense is that
men are appointed to Office by reason
Of their fitness-which is not true, for
at this writing n general shakeup In
federal offices is going on in Illinois In
order to aid Uncle Shelby NJ. Cullom in
his efforts to prevent Richard Yates I'd
from cabbaging his toga. Hopkins is
helping Cullom, no doubt with the un-
derstanding that Cullom is to help him.
which is ''spoils' politics all around.
Over in Indiana the two United States
sehators-civil service reformers both,
with their mouths and their mouths
only-are fixing to have an internal
revenue collector fired, not because he
Is incompetent, but because If he holds
on the balance Of power betwixt them
will be endangered. "Spoils" politics
once more. Oh, hypocrites and Phari-
sees!

When Major William Warner was
elected to succeed General Francis Mar
ion Cockrell in the senate of the Unit
ed States he was probably the happiest
man in America. 1t is doubtful wheth-
er he is so happy these hot June days.
The boys-the Republican boys OF Mis-
souri-are after him hotfoot to get
them good fat places. They're hungry
-awfully hungry. He has furnished
them some pap, but, like Oliver Twist,
they cry for more, and their never ceas-
ing cry is causing Senator Warner loss
Of sleep, loss of appetite, loss OF flesh.

Solomon the title of "the wise man.
in fact, "the wisest man." He was
correct. The case of my friend, Colo
mel Il. w. Stephens of Columbia, Mo-,
proves 1t. By diligence and persever-
ance he has built up in small inland
city one Of the largest publishing
houses in the world. Recently he was
elected president Of all the reunited
Baptists in America, and If the depart
ed spirits Of the mighty dead take any
interest In mundane affairs John the
: Baptist must have been greatly de-
lighted In looking down upon the mag
nificent and mammoth convention over
which Stephens presided. 1t was what
another of my friends, Colonel II. Mar
tin Williams. would call "a corker."
Now Stephens goes to Europe In the
double role of representing all the Bap-
lists Of North America In great pow
WOW In London and the editors of
America at another great powwow in
Belgium, thereby standing before Ed
ward VII. and Leopold II. He is the
best looking Of the three.

Mr.. James Dalrymple of Glasgow,
Scotland, appears to have proved
boomerang to Mayor Dunno of Chica-
go. who imported him for the purpose
of securing his more or less valuable
advice as to municipal ownership. He
declares against II for American cities
ON account of politics. He says that
as we do things here now public own
ership would build up an impregnable
political machine In Chicago.
