where creed and ethics are too closely

TWO TRIPS

Recent Visit of French En-
press a Contrast to
the First

In January the Macedonia sailed
from Marseilles on her usual Journey
TO Port Said and the east. Among
her passengers was an aged lady whose
hair is white with years and trouble.
She travelled incognito, and her iden-
tity did not become known to her fell
ow passengers, but she was none other
than Eugenie, ex-empress Of the French,
who, after an interval Of 80 years,
again left a french port on trip to
Egypt. But how the circumstances have
filtered. What a changed world it is
For this fallen queen, and what mem
pries must rise up before her eyes as

London Telegraph. The contrast is so

THE SAME OLD STORT.

Commissions don't always commit, al though the New Haven Cut commis- sion has done we'll. The Sturgls com mission, created by the Maine legisla- ture last winter to enforce rigidly the State law against the sale of liquor, has failed to do it's work, according to the Bangor News. That paper says: Seven months have passed since the creation Of the great Sturgis commis- sion. Nearly as much liquor is sold in Maine to-day as there has been at any previous time for the past fifty years. The quality Of the goods is so bad that the dealers in many instances could be indicted for selling pOisons. The num- Der of drunks has not decreased in any way. The jails and hospitals are crowd ed with victims of the dram shops. and the indebtedness of the State and the various counties is gaining rapidly. So far as we have been able to learn, the foregoing is story of actual condi- tions."
 The lawmakers at Augusta last win ter were importuned to vote for a re- submission of the no-license question to the voters of the State. This they re- fused to do, declaring that it was possible to secure a state of affairs in Maine that would have delighted the late Neal Dow. Seven months seems to be adequate for the commission to show whether or not absolute prohibition can be enforced, and perhaps there will soon be resuhmission.

 Lots of them. The finest fishing iA the West anywhere doubt if the mountains could beat it."
 The railroad man, who had been listening closely, turned to the speaker. 'Oh I don't know" he drawled. Did you ever fish in a Missouri creek?''
 The crowd laughted. The railroad man was indignant.
 That is no joke. Let me tell you what 1 do once a year. My partner and hire a boat and boatman and ship them up to the head of one of the creeks or little rivers that flow down the foothills of the Ozarks in Southern Missouri. Clear, bright little streams with rocks and pools and long islands no white man crosses them once Q week, and mighty few others. The fish don't know what it is to be hunt ed.''
 Seine 'cm? inquired the insurance man, quietly.
 Not much. We get some proVis- ions together and start down stream. The water rgns about eight miles an hour and it would be to hard work to row against the current-that is why we ship upstream. The boat man has nothing to do except keep the craft headed right and help lift over an occasional fall. The fish go up stream about three miles an hour.
 ''As the boat goes down stream, we whip the water for smallmouth bass. They have been undisturbed so long that they will bite at anything. It is exciting, for the boat makes all sorts of sharp turns and the skill it takes to stand and handle a pole is something not often required"
 They fish with pltchforks out in Kansas" put in the conductor, who had been listening. One day last summer we were side tracked along side the Kaw and went out on the bank of an old river bed that had been dry so long it had been planted
 to corn, The crop was six feet high and the water had backed in from the river until it was three feet deep over the whole field. A farmer came driv- ing through the field. the horses splashing the water over themselves and him.
 Suddenly he stopped and reached over the side of the wagon box with a pitchfork, as if diving after a lost pumpkin. But it was a fish he was after. He got it--a 15 pound cat and he brought it squirrning and wig gling to the surface, hoisting it into the wagon. The next lunge brought up a 20-pounder, and the third was bigger still and he had hard work to land it. That old cornfeld was fairly

IS IT SURELY THEREFOREo

Sometimes people say therefore when the use of it may be doubtful. A Vir- ginia judge has just said therefore, and he evidently thinks his use of it indi- cates right reasoning. Let us respect fully ask if this judges therefore is ab- solute. It has to do with kissing. Per haps kissing is, in the long run, as dangerous in one place as in another. but Brunswick, Virginia, seems to be a little more dangerous for kissers just now than some other places. Anyhow, a young man of that town has reason to think it is. With force and arms, but possibly without malice aforethought, he caught girl and kissed her in the presence of her married sister. Perhaps the girl was justified in resenting this, and the married sister certainly was. The young man was promptly taken to court and after hearing the case and sizing 1t up Mr. Justice Merritt said this: T shall require each man who kisses a girl when she is not willing to pay me s2O, and, moreover, shall use my influence to have the name of the young man and the facts of the case published in the county and State pa- pers, so that the offender may be branded and therefore avoided by the girls .....~z~>-.. $
 It is sad fate for a young man to be branded and avoided by the girls. But perhaps MT. Justice Merritt does- mt know all the girls of his region. Per haps a branded young man wouldn't be so avoided as MT. Justice Merritt cal- culates. Girls are queer, and they have much sympathy, which could We suppose, if they felt like 1t, be extended to include even branded young man. Therefore, perhaps MT. Justice Mer- ritt'e therefore isn't quite as truly con- sequential as he thinks.

FISH STORIES.

How They Fish Out in Kansas Where
 Pitchforks Are Used-Other Ways.
 Going up in the mountains fish ing?" I asked the insurance man who was telling fish stories in the Pullman smoking room.
 "Nct much-better sport right here at home. I have just been by Ne braska City in an old river bottom Of the Missouri and had more fun than I could have in a mountain stream in a month. I go there every summer for a few days. The river cut off a few hundred acres and left a mill out on dry land. The old bed fills with water every spring, holding enough the year round to keep the cat and bass alive"
 "All fish out of the Missouri taste muddy" came from a railway man opposite.
 "Not much," defended the insurance agent. '"The Missouri is simply colored from the clay banks of Mon- tana and it does not affect the taste of the fish in the least"
