WESTERN POLITICIAN WON.

Which Was Too Much
for Him.

When Richard Olney was secretary Of
state he frequently gave expression to the
opinion that appointees to the consular
service should speak the languages of the
countries to which they were respectively
accredited, relates the Philadelphia Rec
ord.
1t is said that when a certain breezy and
enterprising western politician who was
destious OF serving the Cleveland admins:
the Chinese ports presented his papers to
Mr.. Olney, the secretary remarked:
Are you aware, Mr.. Blank, that never
recommend to the president the appoint
guage of the country to which he desires
to go? Now, l suppose, you do not speak
Chinese""
Whereupon the westerner grinned broad

Brooklyn, too, says local authority, is
almost coincident with the disappearance
from the courts of Manhattan Of 'Does"

when the name ola plaintiff was un-

as John Doe" When the defendants
name was unknown he was described as
"Rlchard Roe" In the criminal courts
the name of an unidentified male prisoner
was entered as John Doe" and of fe-
male prisoner as Jane Roe" In civil
cases with women appearing as principals,
Jane Doe" was the name, in default of
any other, for the female plaintiff, and
Jane Roe" for the female defendant.
In Manhattan the colloquial use of the

wealth is .chargeable with the words,

anything that will stand it. We got
good place on the bank of the river,
with about million people who had
sheepskin coats on, and who steamed
like a sheep ranch, and were enjoy
ing the performance, looking occa-
sionally at the Winter palace. where
the car was peeking out of a window,
wondering from which direction a
bomb would come to blow him up,
when battery of artillery across the
river started to fire salute, and then
the devil was to pay. 1t seems that
the gentlemen who handled the guns,
and who were supposed to fire blank
cartridges into the air, put in loaded
cartridges, filled with grape shot, and
took aim at the Winter palace, and
cut loose at Mr.. Car.
Well, you would have been par
alyzed to see the change that came
over that crowd, blessing the river
one minute and damning the car and
the grand dukes the next. The shot
went into the Winter palace and tore
the furniture and ripped up the cell
ing of the room the car was IN, and
in moment all was chaos, as though
every Russian knew the car was to
be assassinated at that particular no
ment, and all rushed toward the
Winter palace as though they expect
ed pieces of the Little Father would
be thrown out the window for them
to play football with. For a people
who are supposed to be lawful and
law-abiding, and who love their rulers,
it seemed strange to see them all so
tickled when they thought he was
blown higher than a kite by his own
soldiers.
Dad and I started with the crowd
for the Winter palace, and then we
had taste of r2onarchial govern
ment. The crowd was rushing over
us and dad got mad and pulled off
his coat and said he could whip any
COMPOUNDED foreigner that rubbed
against him with a sheepskin coat on,

Arriving at a Verdict.

=, Kushequa, Pa, July l0.-(Special)-In
this section of Pennsylvania there is a
growing belief that for such Kidney Dis
eases as Rheumatism and Lame Back
there is only one sure cure and that IS
Dodd's Kidney Pills. This belief grows
from such cases as that of Mrs. II. l..
Dawson of this place. She tells the story
herself as follows:-
II have suffered from Rheumatism for
thirty. years and find that Dodd's Kidney
Pills have done me more good than any
medicine I have ever taken. I was also
bothered with Lame Back and can only
say that my back hasn't bothered me
since took 2odd's Kidney Pills"
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes Of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonderful
if it were not that others are reporting
similar results daily. Kushequa is fast
arriving at verdict that "Dodd's Kid
ney Pills are the one sure cure for Rheu-
matism"

st. Petersburg, Russia.-My Dear
Groceryowski: Well, sir, 'spose you
will be surprised to hear from me in
Russia, but there was no use talking
when Dad said he was going to St.
petersburg if it was the last act Of his
life. He got talking with Japaneser
in Rome and the Jap said the war in
the far east would last until every
Russian was killed. unless America in
terfered to put stop to it, and as
Roosevelt didn't appear to have sand
enough to offer his services to the
car, what it needed was for some rep
resentative American citizen who was
brave and had nerve to go to St.
Petersburg and see the czarovitch and
give him the benefit of a good Ameri-
can talk. The Jap said the American
who brought about peace, by few
we'll chosen remarks, would be the
greatest man of the century, and
would live to be bowed down to by
kings and empercrs and all the worl |
would doff hats to him.
AL nrSC dad was little leary about
going on such mission without Gre
dentials from Washington, but as luck
would have it, he met an exiled Rus
sian at restaurant, who told dad
that he reminded him of Gen. Grant,
because dad had a wart on the side of
his nose, and he told dad that Russia
would keep on fighting until every
Japanese was killed unless some dis
tinguished American should be raised
up who deemed it his duty to go to
st. Petersburg~ and see the Little
Father, and in the interest of human
ity advise the car to call halt be-
fore he had exterminated the whole
yellow race. Dad asked the Russian
if he thought the car would grant
an audience to an American of en-
inence in his own country, and the
Russian told dad that Nicholas Just
dotted on Americans, and that there
was hardly ever an American ballet
dancer that went to Russia but what
