CLAY EQUAL TO EMERGENCY.
How "Great Commoner" Satisfied
Disgruntled Constituent.

One of the best stories told of Hen
ry Clay relates to his dealing with
an old Kentucky mountaineer who ac-
costed the great commoner" after
one of his speeches and said: well,
Henry, have always voted for you
before, but l can't do it this time"
"Why, now, what's the trouble?" ask
ed Clay. II don't like your vote on
the bank BILL" replied Tom. "Ts that
all; l have suited you generally have
I not?" "Oh, yes, always but that time,
but l don't like that vote" you
think ] was honest in giving it, don't
you?" Eyes, but you made a mistake"
Say, Tom, you are hunter and
sometimes your gun misses fire; what
do you do then-throw it away" mo,
/ just pick the flint and try it
again." "Of course you do, Tom; and
all ask of you is to treat me as we'll
as you do your old gun. Will you not
do it?" Yes, by thunder, Henry,
will! I'll try you again."

Strenuous Treatment of Children.

A Milwaukee physician, DR.. John e.
Worden, has adopted this strenuous
treatment to prepare his babies for
the rigors of life, and up to the pres
ent his methods have been abundantly
justified by their success, says an ar
ticle in Good Health for October. His
little daughters, Shirley and Jane,
aged respectively eight and three
years, are two of the firmest and
healthiest bits of humanity, to whom
disease Of all kinds is unknown. Dur
ing the cold weather these children
may be seen barefooted and bare
headed, clad only in their cotton gar
ments, thoroughly enjoying the romp
in the snowdrifts, and without goose
pimple ON their skin.

No Help for the Dying.

The extreme callousness of the old
English gamblers, or gentlemen, as
they were then called. is illustrated
by the following account which Hor-
ace Walpole, the celebrated letter
writer, gives Of curious occurrence
at Whites coffee house in London.
In one of his epistles to Sir Horace
Mann, under date Of September /.
1850, he says: ",rhey have put into
the papers a good story made at
Whites. A man dropped Gawn dead
at the door, and was car"ie,! in. The
club Immediately made bets whether
lie was dead CT rot; and when they
were going to. bleed him, the wager
ers for his death interposed and said
It would affect the fairness Of tho bet.
and they stopped their efforts."-The
Sunday Magazine.

His Pertinent Query.

"If you haven't got anything to DO
and you don't pear to have"
grimly said the Old Codger, address
ing the most paltry citizen in the vii
lage, land no sense-and you don't
evidence any symptoms of having
and no honesty-and you've never
been accused of being cursed with
any-and no self-respect-and there's
no indications of it--and no ability
to do anything but loaf and lop and
lally-gag around-and you are clear
up into the thirty-third degree at
that-w'yn1l don't you run for the
legislature? You are amply equipped
for the position; look at the fun
you'd have, with all the Toms, Dicks
and Harrys in the community hooraw-
ing for or against you, and If you
should happen to be elected the dis
honor wouldn't especially hurt you,
and you've got no family to be dis
graced. What say?"-Puck

DIDN'T KNOW OF THE BOY.
But Man Who Married Widow Had TO
Pay the Penalty.

ut seems very hard that should
be called upon to pay for the boy"
was the lament of an elderly man who
was summoned under curious circum.
stances at Lambert, England.
The proceedings we're taken by the
industrial schools officer with the
view of obtaining an order for a
contribution toward the maintenance
of the son Of woman whom the de-
PENDANT married two years ago.
The boy, it was said, had been sent
to the school before the marriage took
place, and the defendant now pro-
tested that he had never seen the
lad, and was quite unaware Of his ex-
istence at the time of the marriage.
you have heard Of the danger of
marrying widows?" remarked Hr.
Hopkins, the magistrate.
Unfortunately, 1 know it," replied
the defendant.
ut seems hard lines, know" sale
the magistrate, ito call upon you to
pay for the boy. But men do such
foolish things. Two years ago you
didn't mind marrying this woman"
Yes, sir, but didn't know what
she was then" was the reply.
An order was made for the payment
of SO cents a week.

CHANCES IN OUR FAVOR

following from its Washington correspondent relative

Speaker Cannon has informed several RepubIi-
can members Of the Missouri and Kansas delegations
who called to see him thar he will use his influence to
prevent Congress from adjourning without the adj
mission Of Oklahoma and Indian Territory to state

them in such way that there was not longer chance
to dodge The one hope left was that statehood for
greater Oklahoma III some form should come out of
this session Their political lives were in the

where they could no longer act for Oklahoma, except
through the methods he would provide. It leaves

help bring about what could have been exacted a.

compromise which would admit New Mexico and Ari-
zona with the Foraker amendment permitting these
two territories vote separately the acceptance of
statehood.
Sending the statehood bill to conference simply
means an effort On the part Of the House to put the
burden on the greater Oklahoma Of carrying through

Arizona.
