evidence that no signs OF life were seen
from the Salvor on the wreck and that
the Caesar reported similarly. He says no
communication was had with the Queen.
He says he believed the people would
have been drowned by being dragged
through the water in a brooches buoy

tive IL was Impossible for the Salvor's
boats TO get to the wreck Even with a

Practical POIitica.

A practical politician of the first wa
ter came to light in a small Indiana
town not long ago. In this town there
is an officer, designated as Inspector
of Streets and Roadways, who receives
the munificent salary of $3.50 per year.
AS the opposing political parties are
very nearly balanced in this town,
there is keen opposition, so that when
this Office became vacant and the au-
thorltes ordered an election to fill it,
there was lively campaign for this
small plum, no other elections being
near. The democratic candidate was
a rather shrewd old fellow by the
name of Ezekiel Hicks, ard it looked
as though he would be successful, as
n neat little sum had been subscribed
and turned over to him as campaign
fund. To the astonishment of every
body, however, he was defeated.
II can't account for it," one of the
Democratic leaders said, gloomily.
with that money we should have
won. How did you lay it out, Eze-
kiel?"
"Hum," Ezekiel said, slowly, pull
ing his whisker. Eyer see that office
only pays $3.50 a year salary, an l
didn't see no sense in payin' 5000 out
to get the office, so jest bought me a
little truck-farm instead. "-Harper's s
Weekly.
