L. Nr
NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-"Nhat would
the poor do if there were no rich to
work forY' repeated Mrs. Rose Pastor
Stokes when Miss Morosini's question
was put to her ut her home here.
"Please God" answered the former
cigarmaker. they would work for
themselves"
The rich young woman who formerly
earned her bread by the sweat of her
brow continued at length, taking Miss
Morosini to task for her views on
dress and the duties of the rich while
so many are suffering for the necessi-
ties of life.
Miss Morosini created a sensation in
n recent interview by saying that her
dresses cost 100000 a year, that she
wore anything imitation and
that her extravaganza, if people chose
to call it such, was justified by the
fact that it put money into circulation.
Mrs. Stokes said:
ut is because such women as Miss
Morosini and women of their class
neve think what things cos that wo-
men of the working class are compel
led to think constantly of what every
thing COSTS

General Took No Part in San Juan
Hill Charge.

SEATTLE, Wash. Nov. 24.-That
President then Colonel Roosevelt did
not lead the main charge up San Juan
hill as popularity supposed; that Colo
mel Roosevelt was away Mt Kettle hill
at the time of the charge; that he,
Brigadier General Noble, then acting
major of the Tenth infantry, was sen.
ior officer in command of the historic
charge; that there would be considera-
Bile disillusionment among the people
of the United States if the facts of
that campaign were known-such are
the statements Of Brigadier General c..
ii. Noble, retired, commander of the
forces AT Fort Seward, Alaska.
After forty-four years of service Gen
eral Noble has retired and now, with
his wife and little boy, is on his way
to his home in indianapolis. During Il
brief outline of his military career
while here the battle of San Juan hill
was mentioned. AT the remark that he
must have been near the rough riders
in the charge General Noble smiled.
Roosevelt did not lead that charge
any more than you did" he said.
There have been Il lot of foolish
things written about that charge, but
1t was the Tenth who really captured
San Juan. | was senior officer Of the
Tenth at the time. and we did not see
anything Of Roosevelt"
The general would not say any more
about what he knew of the battle.
II am still liable to be called on the
carpet for all my retirement" he said.

COMpLAIN OF MATER Supply.

rs &SP4AA HAHN VT w W. ~ III
Some of the people of Maxvillc
Heights have been and are complain
ing of the Inadequate water supply
in that part OF the borough. All last
summer this seemed to be the bone
OF contention as the people up there
could not get a sufficient supply OF
water. 1t was then claimed that the
meter was not of sufficient capacity.
Now at an expenditure of over one
thousand dollars a new meter has
been placed and still we hear conf
plants. Yesterday the water was
shut off for one hour, we suppose y
advertised, and while we experienced
no difficulty down in the town in get
ting water, there was none in sight
up on the Heights yet this morning.
1t is no trouble to force water down
hill, but when you have to force it up
to the height of fifty feet everything
must be in perfect working order to
get it there. Suppose a fire had oc-
Cured in tina section last night. what
would have been the result? The in
urance agents will be loath to place
risks up there unless this is eme
died. Cannot the authorities straight
en- out this matter. We might offer
some suggestions, but We think our
mayo and council Are intelligent
men and will take some action before
a conilagration wipes out of existence
a part of that portion of the town.

Record
1t Is n well-known rule among clergy
men not to take q fee from fellow

man to go through the usual forHf~and
present the officiating clergyman with
an envelope containing the fee. The
minister then pays graceful compli-
ment to the bride AMI presents the en-
velope to her. Aware of this custom,
the young minister thought he would
make big showing before his bride,
and placed 800 in the envelope. smil-
ing in anticipation of her surprise
when she should open 1t and see what
her lover was willing to pay for be-
ing united to her.
The young mans CONSERVATION can
be imagined when the other clergyman
calmly pocleted the envelope and made
no movement to return 1t. The Off
cIatiag IOinister had heard glowing
reports of the rich bride his young
friend was getting and decided that
the Ice would do him more good than
the newly-married couple, and there
fore Tor once departed from the usual
rule. The bridegroom is still sore
about the 500, but the joke was too
good for the bes. man. TO keep TO
