WASTE OF GOOD MONEY

THE fuss started in a most unusual and
unprecedented way, way that I real-
am reluctant 70 set down, II was so cont-a-.
to all that IS natural and ordinary ia
domestic life. Mrs Reddington had asked f-
some money for household purposes, and
Reddington had grumbed.
Hence the row. Charges Of extravagarc-
were met by cOunter-charges of sting.ne
charge Of foolish wastefulness were replied H.
with charges Of meanness; and so it grew
warm and torrid and Illuminating And
ended as all such discussions do, by Reddu
tons throwing a ten-dolIar bill violently ia-.
his wife's lap
There, that leaves me with only pa.t-.
quarter in my pocket he exclaimed trag-
ally But It's enough. II VIII buy enough
arsenic 20 put an end TO my miserable life
That's just Ike your wicked selhshues5
retorted Mrs Reddington indignantly at the
same time gathering IN the ten-spot '-You
talk about my wastefulness, and then YOU
waste lot Of money on yourself without the
least necessity for 1t.
Reddington glowered more gloomilv
Now continued Mrs. Reddincton placid
ly, why can't YOU give me that quarter

FORESIGHIED PHILANTHROPY

DRESIDENT ANGELL Of the University
Of Michigan told this story 70 a class
IN international law
Some years ago, when I was United States
Minister to Turkey. Greece was visited by a
severe famine \ great wave Of sympathy
and pity swept over the United States, Affect
ing the women particularly. They raised
hundreds Of dollars for the relief Of the suf-
ferers- With true Yankee husbandry they
did not send the money in cash. but spent It
in buying vast quantities of cloth which they
made into dresses for the Grecian women
One entire ship l believe, was loaded by this
OutpOuring of charity. / never was tired Of
referring IN diplomatic circles 10 the generosity
OF my countrywomen, and for a time was
the envy of the representatives Of the other
governments.
Shortly after the ship arrived and its
cargo had been distributed l had occasion d
make trip through Greece. IT was in the
days when our ladies Wore extremely large
sleeves but the style IN Greece was not tie
same. You may imagine my surpri-c and
humiliation when l saw that the Grecian
women had not known what the American
garments were and had put them on thelr
husbands for trousers

WHAT A COMMA DID

DAN LOCKWOOD told this story as a
IL cloak-room tale, and he insisted that
it was a true story. James l. King of
Buffalo. well-to-do became i'll and was sent
10 the Bohemian spa for treatment. Some
how or other, the Bohemian local press
reported his arrival, referring to him as
lanes l., King of Buffalo, America"
This blunder seemed humorous to Mr.. King
at first, but serious symptoms soon developed
which made him vince and squirm. All of
the parvenus, parasites, tuft-hunters, snobs
sycophants and beggars swooped down upon
poor King; the hotel people leeced him, and
everybody seemed to join in a general con-
spracv to mulct him. He couldn't turn around
without spending money. The hands of bell
bows and walters were constantly before HIM
His bill was iammed full of "extras," which he
never had nor thought of having; but they
were things that the King OF Buffalo or any
other king ought to have; and he had to pay.
In vain did he endeavor to convince his
prosecutors that it was all mistake: that he
was no royal parsonage, nor a believer IN
ROYALTY. They would only smile and tell him
that if he wanted to travel incognito he should
have begun right They bowed and scraped
before him; always holding out hands to catch
the roval pence; and he succumhed to their
deliberate and determined Establishments, until
he was obliged to leave the spa and go else
where for treatment.
Ever afterward, wherever he registered, It
was as Thomas Thompson of Boston" Only
bv thus living under the cover OF an alias
was he able to remain abroad for treatment
and afterward to do" Europe.

A y unmarried woman of my acquaintance
n was drawing dangerously near the
threshold of that age where the minated must
abandon every matrimonial hope.
Belonging as she did to that large contingent
Of women to whom marriage represents the
only possible career, her anxiety, as she saw
her chances of achieving it dwindling to the
vanishing point, became keen, and in her dis
tTess she began to seek for comforting re-
assurances among that fraternity who. for a
suitable consideration, obligingly offer to re-
veal the secrets of the future.
In the course of an interview with one of
these wise women" she was told: My
dear you already married on the astral
plane, and it is your astral husband who IS
keeping the earth men away from you"

STRICKLAND W. GILLIAN, the "otf

ists, who has been out on the lecture circuit,

South Dakota. When l got there a blizzard

the opera-house by the hour set fer the lecture

HIS IDEA OF GOOD COMPANY

THE late General William Preston one Of
the most genial and hospitable of Ken
tuckians, was noted for his ability to absorb
a conversation without attracting attention
or giving offense.
Once, having travelled from Louisville to
his home in Lexington, he was greeted at the
railroad station by several friends, who ex-
pressed the hope that his journey had been a
pleasant one. &" enjoyed it very much said
General Preston. 'for | had the companion
ship of the most entertaining young man l
ever met found his society delightful
that was sorry when l bade him farewell
here on the platform.
Who was he!" was the inquiry.
Il can't recall his name just now though
am sure he mentioned it but there he is, said
the General, pointing TO youth who by his
unerring accuracy in hp-reading was regarded
as the most intelligent deaf-mute in the
State, but who never in his life had been
able to hear or to utter a sound

CITY Atmosphere SURCHARGED
With MATTERS POLITICAL.
Two Conventions Called for Next
Week. A General Mass Caucus, and
Delegate Affair. Church Mem
berS and Union Men Repudiate Call
Made in Their Names.

AS usual, Aberdeen has been slow to
manifest much interest in the coming
/ city elections, but for the last few days
the local political pot has been simmer
ing sufficiently to satisfy the most en-
| thusiastic
Calls have been issued for two nomi-
mating conventions, one to meet in
Woodman hall next Tuesday evening"
and the other at the city hall on Monday
evening. There is funny story at
tached to the call Tor Tuesday evening,
which runs about as follows: On Octo-
Der 23, the Ministerial Alliance held a
meeting a. which attention was directed
to the vice of the city and steps taken
for the formation of Civic Betterment
Society in conjunction with the lay mem.
bers OF the churches.
Somewhat to the surprise of most OF
the projectors OF the plan, the action
was evoluted into political organization,
and the committee reported a call for a
nominating convention, to consist of 81
delegates chosen by the churches, and
40 delegates to be named by the Trades
Council. The committee vert before
the Trades Council last Friday night
with this proposal, to allow the unions IA
minority in the convention in return for
the union support OF snch ticket as the
ma jority might name. The Trades Coun-
Gil declined the proposal for two reasons.
| The constitution of labor organizations
wisely prohibit political discussions at
their meetings was one, and The other
was Discrimination TO play tail to some
body's kite. Yet, despite this action,
the call was published Monday for the
convention, and, at this writing, it is a
| source of considerable speculation as to
who will show up as delegates at this
convention.
The call for mass caucus for next
Monday night is in keeping with the old
time Aberdeen custom, and all citizens
OF the city are invited to attend and voice
| their preferences for the men and meas
nres they believe to be best for the city's
welfare.
The nominations to be made are !:
Mayor, Clerk, Treasurer, Attorney,
Health Officer and four Councilmen, one
of the councilmen to be named at the
general caucus, at large, and one each in
the First. Second and Sixth wards.
The caucus Monday night will name a
[ full ticket, but it is doubtful if the dele.
gate convention will do business. Still,
there is little danger of a scarcity of can
didates, and there is certainty of two
tickets in the field, with a possibility of
| a third,
