Guarding His Dignity.

As a large ocean-going steamer
was making her way down the
Clyde the officer in charge found
his passage blocked by a dirty
looking empty ballast barge, the
only occupant of which was a man
sitting smoking a short pipe, says
London Tit-Bits. Finding that he
did not make any effort to get out
of the way, the officer shouted to
him in true nautical fashion. TAX
ing the pipe from his mouth the
fellow rose and said:
An is it yerself that's the cap
tain of that ship"
NO." was the reply; but l am

New York in 1850

A writer in the current Harper 5
Weekly INDUCES in some interest
ing speculations concerning the
future growth in population of the
largest American cities. He be-
lieves that Boston will eventually
take rank as the second largest city
in the United States, although, he
SAYS, It is sure to be left more and
more behind by New York. Al
though Boston has plenty of room
for expansion, it does not compare
in this respect with the possibilities
of New York. The borough of
Richmond alone can accommodate
millions of inhabitants more than
the borough of Manhattan, and
there is no visible end to the growth
ofthe boroughs of Brooklyn, Queens
and the Bronx. The writer ad-
vances the opinion that by 1850 the
city hall of New York will be the
center of larger urban population
that the tower of London.

THE following is taken from the
last issue of State Topics: The
efforts some of the Bell papers are
making to get Hon. James B. Wells
to enter the race for Governor,
must and undoubtedly does, cause
a smile to fit across the face of
the Grand Sachem of the Lower
Rio Tammauy. especially when
he remembers how some of these
very papers have been laying for
him" with knives up their sleeyes.
1t is any port in a storm. and with
the Bell papers it is anything to
help their man. We feel justified
in saying, however. that if Mr..
Wells does decide to enter the race,
it will not be on the advice of those
papers that have been unfriendly
to him in the past, nor will he
alone be guided in making his decis-
ion by those who are pledged to
Judge Bell and who are urging
him to enter the race because they
believe his candidacy would help
that of the Fort Worth man. Mr..
Wells has a way of thinking for
himself, and he is never deceived
by any presents the Greeks may
bring him. And that the Greeks
are now laying offerings at his feet,
there is not the least doubt, but
we are decidedly of the opinion
that the presents will fail OF their
object, aud will be declined as
they are offered.

Wheeler's Love Romance.

The death of General Joe
Wheeler has recalled to the minds
OF 4 number OF New Orleans peo-
pei the romantic story OF his court
ship in Alabama.
It was in the early years OF the
war, General Wheeler had oeen
harryins the Federal troops near
Chattanooga, and had managed to
cut of their supplies. During
a part of this campaign he made
his home on the Jores estate in
Northern Alaibama. There he met
Mrs. Ella Sherrod, the daughter
of Colonel Jones, a well known
steamboat man of antebellum days.
Colonel Jones was away at the
war. Mrs. Sherrod $ husband had
died and she was left alone on the
plantation with her crippled SON
and an invalid mother. General
Wheeler fell deeply in love, and
often slipped away from his COM
mand to spend 4 few hours with
Mrs. Sherrod, although the trips
were made at the risk of his life.
Finally the Federal troops burn
ed every building that was on the
plantation, and Mrs. Sherrod
carried her mother from the burn
ing house at midnight. General
Wheeler drove the Federal troops
completely out of the neighbor-
hood. At the close of the war
Mrs. Sherrod consented to become

PUT OUT A SPY.
Washburn Found Baker Student Ready
to Get Debate Pointers.

The Gamma Sigma society of Wash
burn college defeated the Washburn col-

held in the college chapel last evening.
The debate was preliminary to the de-
bate which viii be held between Wash
burn and Baker university.
Incidentally a little Excitement was
occasioned by the presence Of a Baker
student who was credited with being a
spy. Arguments and threats were re
sorted to in an endeavor to get the
stranger to leave the chapel. Things
were made unpleasant enough after a
while and the stranger departed, at the
some time protesting though acknoWI-
edging that he was a Baker student.
The same subject which will be de-
hated with Baker was used last even

Washburn will uphold against Baker,
