When the Iron Horse Crossed the Plain.
the Cowboy Retreated.

The year of the meeting of the
rails at Promontory Point was very
near the elimination in America
of that ancient industry which al

THEIR SPEECHES ON MENU
Innovation Tried in London to Abate
Wearing Post-Prandial
Eloquence.

A daring innovation in the time-hon-
ored procedure of city banquets was in
troduced by Carl Hentschel, who, as
president of the Bartholomew club, en-
tertained the lord mayor, lady mayOress.
the sheriffs and their wives. and large
company at the forty ninth annual dinner
of the club at De Keyser's Royal hotel
recently, says the London Telegraph
Instead of the linked sweetness, long
awn-out," and the alleged humor of
civic post-prandial oratory, the speeches
were all printed with the menu, and
were, as note to the toast list explained,
taken as read.
AS the president pointed out in the ex-
PLANTATION prefixed to the booklet: Even
if it were never attempted again, it will
remain an interesting attempt to re-
lieve the length and solidity which char
acterizes many city dinners. OF course,
to these gentlemen gifted with the use
full accomplishment of always making
brilliant speeches, or those who dearly
love the sound of their own voices, this
innovation perhaps will not appeal III
the same manner as it might to the I'M
fortunate individual who spends hours
in preparing his speech, only to forget
same when he comes to deliverit. And
he might have added, to the equally un-
fortunate individual who, having dined,
is for very shame compelled to evince
appreciation of sentiments he has heard
better expressed many times before.
Nor need the budding or full-blown
orator feel disappointed, for seldom have
the most sonorous periods, the most deli
cate wit, evoked more hearty applause
than, for instance, Alderman and Sher-
if Vezey Strong's reply last night: MY
lord mayor, my lady mayoress, my lords
and gentlemen, for my reply, see page
H." With the speech portrait of the
speaker was reproduced in the souvenir
booklet; indeed, nothing was wanting
to leave the most vivid impression of .
most enjoyable evening.

On occasion, it appears, the naive but

when was down in the mountains"
one pretty, round-eyed young business
girl was overheard to say to another.
over their midday luncheon, Susie
planned little climb up the mountain
side, just to entertain me; and Susie's
beau-that old Mr.. Hedges-he must
be over 30-went with us. Hekept help
ing me over all the big logs and bad
places, YOU know; and we had an awful.
1y nice time. l noticed that he didn't
help Susie very often; but, you see,
thought it was because was the visitor
and because Susie had been up there
beforehand could climb better. I'm
awful awkward at jumping big logs.
When we got home-don't you think
Susie acted mad. and accused me of
holding hands all day with Mr.. Hedges
did you ever! told her it was no such
thing-he was her beau-and he was
just jumping me over all the big logs
to be polite. And that made Susie feel
all right
"Well. sir. the day came home, hero
turned up that old Mr.. Hedges at the
station-I know he's 30 if he's day
and he said he was going up the road
on business. He had valise. He sat
by me and seemed awful polite-but,
bless you, pretty soon he began holding
my hand again. l didn't like it bit:
because there wasn't any log jumping
going on, you know-and so I knew
he had been holding hands with me
the day before, just as Susie said he
had. He must have liked It.
II tried to make him OUTPUT he
wouldn't-though he dropped my hand
every time the conductor came through.
and remembered all the time he was
Susie's beau-so thought, we'll, sir,
I'll just talk religion to him-that'll
knock him out. So said: Mr.. Hedges.

looked awful funny, and said: Idon't
belong to any church. And said:
You ought to; 1t would make you be-

Between the blood of men and apes
there are many points Of similarity and
evidence OF distinct relationship, but
the blood of monkeys can readily be
distinguished from that of men. The
difference is more or less marked, &C

semblance being seen in the case of
the gorilla and the least with the
lemurs, small species about the size
of cat and having a face somewhat
