"Are We a citizen iv it?"

ever ready to point moral with d
story. This fellv had shtrange idees
iv r-runnin' his house, an t was all
fright while he was r-runnin' his own
house an not botherin' amy wan ilse.
But wan da-ay he moved over to a
boordin'- house
"'Come in says tn other borders.
so long as ye pa-ay ye-er boord an
live up to tn r-rules we re glad f'r to

''But don't intind FIR to pa-ay me-

"'There do be twinty iv us here that

way of conclusion. Cd ye see tn

But I have none," said the anar-
chfst, at last grasping the point.
But, OF course, all this wisdom was
wasted upon the anarchist. He con-
tinued to make rabid speeches when
ever opportunity offered, and Police
| man Flynn continued to puzzle his
head as to the best method of proce-
dure in the matter
1T is shtrange thing" he COM
mented one day, that so nanny diff
f'rint kinds iv la-ads do be havin' tn

ed, solemnly shaking his head, rye

On another occasion he suggested to
the anarchist, 9Th la-ad that's always

pr-rised whin he gets wan alongside
iv tn head. If yell 60 home an think
iv that it ma-ay save ye some throu-

At last, however, the policeman out
lined plan of campaign. He decided
that lettering anarchist was men
ace, while an anarchist on the move
was harmless. 1T is only where they
shtop that they na-ake throuble," he
said. while they re movin' they
ha-ave no chanst.' It was after he had
been obliged to order his particular an
archist to move on" three times In
one evening that this great idea came
to him. He took the man by the arm
and walked him along.

bitterly.
"Niver," answered Policeman Flynn.

Now that the United States government has
made start in the direction of erecting suitable
legation and embassy buildings for our represen-
tatives abroad it is hoped that before many years
the United States flag will fly over property that
abroad. The fact that American ambassadors and
ministers have had to rent their quarters abroad
has been disgrace to the United States diplo-
matte service

troubles in 1900 made it imperative that this gov

mean national dignity or have any particular
diplomatic significance Mr.. Roosevelt wants to
have them observed, but he is not stickler for
form and in his private life in the White House
goes a good deal the plan of a genuine old
fashioned American homebody. With some presi-
dents an invitation to take dinner at the White
House took the form of command much as
would similar invitation from one of the
crowned heads of Europe. Anyone receiving
such an invitation would never have thought of
declining it unless prevented by sickness or some
providential interference
Mr.. Roosevelts invitations to dinner have
been sometimes declined. but only such as have

SUMMER IN THE NATIONAL CA PITAL.
Tn midsummer

In midsummer the great national capital at
Washington Is like an overgrown country village.
The quiet of its streets and it's general somnoent
character are remarked by visitors from all parts
of the country. There is no rush, no crowd except
at very brief periods during the day. From eight
until nine o'clock in the morning the street cars
are crowded and good many people are seen
on the sidewalks, but they compose the army Of
$4,000 government employees that is swallowed
up behind the doors of the big marble and gran
tie government buildings upon the stroke of nine
: Again from 430 until $3.50 there is another
little hustle on the street as this inkstained
crowd of clerks come out Of their Office buildings
and go home. That is about all the excitement
there is during the daytime There is a gentle
little stir later in the evening as few hundred

Baby Gone to School.

in Oklahoma. It's author Is unknown.
II was published in the Oklahoma
School Herald:
The baby has gore to school an, ne.
What will the mother do?
with never call to button, or pin,
Or tie little shoe?
How can she keep herself busy all day
With the little, hindering thing away?
Another basket to mn with lunch,
Another goodbye to say
And the mother stands at the door to
see
Her baby to march away
And turns away with q sigh that IS
half relief
Aud half q something akin to grief
She thinks Of q possible future morn.
when the children, one by one,
VIII go from their home out into the
world,
To battle with life alone,
And not even the baby be left to cheer
The desolate home of that future year
She picks mp garments here and there.
Thrown down In careless haste,
And tries TO think how IL would seem
II nothing were displaced,
II the house were always as still as
this.
How could she bear the loneliness
