His Reason.

A favorite story of a relative Of the
late George De Forest Grant WAS of II
correspondence which took place between
him and Mrs. Bradley Martin ut n Cali
fornia hotel Mr.. Grant was the first TO
arrive and had secured satisfactory ac-
commodations on the first sleeping room
floor. which were desirable because the
house was not supplied with elevator
service.
\ few days later Mrs. Martin came
and got room for herself on the first
floor. but her daughter had to 30 to the
floor above. Learning that her ncighhor
was a New Yorker, Mrs. Martin adj
dressed a note to him thus:
Mrs. Bradley Martin presents her
compliments to George De Forest Grant
and begs that he will exchange rooms
with her daughter"
Mr.. Grant was not disposed to he gal
liant at the moment and sent this reply
Mr.. Grant presents his compliments
to Mrs. Bradley Martin and would like
to ask if her daughter drinks"
Ills answer was followed by All indig-
nant note assuring Mr. Grant that her
daughters habits were altogether cor
rect. To which Mr.. Grant sent his re-
grets that he could not comply with the
request, since her daughter did not drink
and he did, and consequently the stairs
would be easier for her than for him.

PROFESSOR is A FREAK.
Oscar Eckstein Prefers Fisherman's Hut
to Flat,

Oscar Eckstein an instructor in the
department of chemistry at the Unver-
sity of Chicago, is attracting cansidcra-
bic attention in faculty circles on ac-
count of his eccentric habits. He has
refused quarters in the domitorcs on
the campus and is living in a iisherman's
hut On the lake front When he was
called before an official of the university
to explain why he adopted this peculiar
life lie said that he disli1ed to live in
the Hats On account of the noise and
preferred the lake for its pure air. More
over, he explained his dislike for most
company. TO live alone is to be in good
company he said. and to live with
somebody is usually unsatisfactory The
air Is chemically much better where |
live, too, 1t has no more oxygen in it
but it has less dirt. My habits. too, are
not restricted. Every morning | take Il
plunge in the lake, | eat when | please
and what ] please. | have no regular
hours for meals nor any certain diet
/ prefer tie simple life in my hut to
the life in the city" Eckstein is a grad
uate of the universities of Munich and
Geneva. He was born in Munich thirty
five years ago and at the age of IL left
home to tramp about the world He
travelled over many of the European
countries and through Africa Three
years ago he lived for six months with
the Grow Indians in Montana aud last
year lie lived with the Pueblos. He came
to the University of Chicago as an in
structor last fall. He is unmarried.

Ben Buffers EASY Conscience.

One of the best as we'll as the neatest
hits made By Gen. Ben Butler occurred
during the famous deadlock on the civil
rights bill. The question of adjournment
was under consideration, and General
Butler had stepped over to Mr.. Randall's
desk for private consultation. Butler
favored a Sunday session. Randall OPP
posed it.
BAD as | am. have some respect for
Gods day." said the Democrat. "and /
don't think it proper to hold session of
Congress on that day"
"Oh, pshaw" responded Butler, DIDN'T
the Bible say that it is lawful to pull
your OK or your ass out of a pit on the
Sabbath day? You have seventy-three
asses on your side of this House that I
want to get out of this ditch tomorrow,
and | think l am engaged in a holy
work. Boston Herald.

FOR MEMS SUMMER WEAR.
Fancy Hat Bands, Golf Handkerchiefs,
Popular Belts and Collars.

Fancy hat bands will be more gen.
orally worn during the coming summer
than ever before. All straw hats are
now offered trimmed with plain black
or fancy colored bands. Young men
will desire to possess a variety of bands,
and every retailer should carry a stock
The bands appear in all colors, have tiny
hooks for fastening; and can be put on
or taken off in jiffy.
Golf handkerchiefs, which are on the
old style bandanna order, but in madder
colors, will be worn about the neck and
around the waist this summer. This is
an English fad, and is quite attractive,
and, where many happen to be playing,
even picturesque.
The ''coatless' brace is one which most
likely is destined to become popular. 1t
is worn under the overshirt and over the
undershirt, and is not seen when Il man
is Invested of coat and waistcoat.
Shepherd plaid neckwear seems to
have become quite the thing. The most
attractive is a half inch check in two
toned effects.
Brown, a shade which has had quite a
run in mems scarfs, suspenders, ETC.,
seems to be going out. Reseda, cadet
blue, Quaker gray, soft tan and medium
fancy tints are much worn.
The popular width in belts will be one
inch The proper buckle will be square
and made of gold plate, gun metal and
oxidized, and the leather black calf, pig
skin and seal.
The rundown collar which is gaining
in favor by those who do not wear the
standing is much lower than the one
that has been worn for several years.
1t is cut back more in front and has
about half inch space; in fact, it much
resembles the style worn ten years ago.

are from ii to Is years old, and under
the management of Johann Weber, who
trained them and brought them to Amer

were not contract laborers and were not

try. So the concert was ordered in the
office of the board of inquiry presided
over by Maj. Charles Semsey, who
served on Kossuth's staff and fed with
him to America. The boys played with

several Hungarian marches. When told
