HOW JEFFERSON PAINTED.

Some entertaining "reminiscences OF
Joseph jefferson as painter are con-
tributed by Frederic Remington. MI
Remington visited Jefferson in his
Florida studio some years before the
famous actors death and heard Mr.
Jefferson express some OF his uncon'
yen1ionai vi-ws on the art Of painting
Noticing a little shanty on the shore
of the gulf, for example, Mr.. Reming
ten suggested that it would be good
subject to paint.
"No-not now," said Mr.. jefferson
"When?" queried Mr.. Remington, in
surprise.
"Oh, l shall paint that next year
some time, or possibly not in two
years." was the answer.
"But you may not be here; bes des
think the house will rot down in
less time than that" said Mr. Rem
ington.
II shall paint it as see it when
am not looking at it, my boy" was
.Iefferson's answer.

Why Natchez Quit.

The following is from the Natchez
Democrat:
The Natchez Baseball association
met last night, discussed the situa-
ton and decided to drop the franchise
tcmorrow evening. Lack OF patron
age superinduced by disgust over in.
competent umpires, and disregard of
salary limit, reducing the game to
question of high priced teams is the
cause of the trouble. The decision to
surrender the franchise is final. The
salaries CT the ball players are over
due. The treasury shows $3.50 on hand
through sale of tickets and gate re-
ceipts. Standing against this is an
Indebtedness of $1,OS2. This amount
IF money must be raised to pay the
men as they have earned their money
and it is due them. 1t is conceded
that the black eye to the town IN Tor
feiting the franchise is bad enough
hut to fail in the payment CT these
salaries is much worse. 1t is hCped
that the sale of benefit tickets To-Day
and tomorrow will fill the deficit so
that the men can be paid off. The as
sociation is compelled to appeal 10
the public to assist in swelling ths
gate receipts and contribute to fund
IN nav the ball players and let the
franchise go.

4 Land Where Laughter Has No Re.
latiOn to Pleasure.

1atiOn to Pleasure.
In "Mcre Queer Things About Japan
Douglas Sladen says: Perhaps one OF
the severest Of etiquettes in Japan IS
that of smiles. When you have lived in
that land Of smiles you will learn in
time that when you can understand
Japanese smile you may hope to under
stand the people. A daughter-in-law
must always present smiling face to
her mother-in-law; the servant must
smile when his mistress dismisses him.
But the news of a death must be told
with laughter. Laughter is reserved
for very special occasions and has no
relation to joy. Smiles are used on
every occasion to conceal real feelings
They are not always significant Of
pleasure.

same writer continues. HE can live
in his clothes without tent, he can
live on rice or offal of the sea, and he
Is so accustomed to carrying heavy
weights and running long distances
that he can be his own commissariat
and even his own horse"
II the Japanese are somewhat lax
as regards their religion. they are at
any rate believers in cleanliness. The
writer says: Personal cleanliness is a
virtue which all Japanese servants pos

given some good, hot roasts. Rev. f.
II. Fuller of Columbus, who occupied
the pulpit at Dueber avenue NJ Il.
church, said that the "Brannock bill
had done good work, mutilated and
crippled as il had been by our illustri.
Gus governor Had it not been mutt
lated and crippled how much more
beneficial it might have been. Some
politicians have already been burned as
a result of this interference, and | feel.
that there are others that will be just
as badly burned"
There is no doubt that it is the inten-
tion of the organization to make a con-
certed fight against the Republican can
didate, for the reason that he went out
of his way to cripple their pet meas
ure. 1t is not so much, they say, the
amount of damage done to the bill, as
it was the principle that the chief ex-
ecutive manifested in his dealings with
the leaders. They are not asking that
the Democratic party nominate an ul-
ira temperance man. All they want
is chance to shy stone at the fellow
who threw them down. That is the
policy of the Anti-Saloon leaguers.
They claim that the politicians have
been afraid of the saloon influence, and
they propose to make them afraid Of
the Anti-Saloon league influence.

A CONVENTION CITY.

Canton wants the Democratic state
convention and the inducements 1t
offers are certainly worthy OF con-
sideration. 1t has been long time
since the state convention has been
held in northern Ohio. So many con-
ventions are held at the capital of
the state that the people there take
them as matter of course and dis
play very little interest in them. The
largest most enthusiastic and best
entertained state convention of the
Ohio Democrats in the past ten years
was that held at GAINESVILLE, a smaller
city than Canton, and without Can
tons hotel facilities. Not even the
larger cities of the state ar bet
ter prepared to take care of large
gathering. Canton's reputation for
good hotels is well known and two
of them are equal to any in the state
outside the largest cities. The Can
ton auditorium is a magnificent build
ing for the holding of large assem-
blies and is sure to make that city a
popular convention center. The ac-
coustic properties of the Auditorium
are prounoced by experts to be the
most perfect Of any large building in
the state.-Mansfield Shield.

A BOONE ERANG.

1t is but just and humane that the
people of the state of Ohio should eX-
tend their heartfelt sympathy to state
auditor and commander in chief of the
vast standing army of inspectors of
uniform accounting who get away
with s15 or $40 a day in salary and
expenses out of the public taxes, as
easily as a duck does with a hat full
of June bugs.
They had been a stirring up num-
bur of Democratic officials whose ac-
counts showed a few dollars out Of
balance through apparent errors, and
Mr.. Guilbert kept all the papers sup
piled with the news. Finally they
struck Athens county where the Re-
publicans have been in power since the
days of Noah. There they found that
whole generations Of treasurers
had been milking the treasury dry.
There have been so many thousands
stolen that the inspectors think 1t may
be necessary to build an annex to the
multiplication table to enumerate the
exact number.
In the meantime the inspectors can't
suppress all the facts and this makes
them sad Shed tear for them.-New
Philadelphia Times.

1t is said that the farmers" notes
of the Aultman Co. so far given for
collection have produced excellent re-
suits. Some of the holders of this
character of paper put their claims in
the banks to be collected in the regu-
lar run of business and they report
less than 15 per cent have been re-
turned as not paid. This would indi-
cate that much of the paper of the
bankrupt company will prove better
than anticipated. In the Aultman-
Miller Co. affairs at Akron it is said
the purchaser realized from the col
lections enough to pay for the entire
plant.

so that there is no possibility of using

upon which no revenue has been paid.
The officers have great deal of trou-

are necessary. Heretofore all that had
to be done was to mutilate the
