KNEW WHAT SHE WANTED,
And Resented Presumption on the Part of the obligiRg
 Salesman.

A tall woman, dressed in black, and with very businesslike manner, walked into a well-known London es- tablishment and. declining the service of the shopwall1er, made directly for the crepe counter. She had rather a thoughtful air as she examined the stock. and the obliging young shopman remarked affably:
 We have a large stock of erepes, madam. Just allow me to show you some new French goods. very popular just now for every kind of mourning. Now, these light crepes are all the rage for hals-mourning for cousins. May may ask, madam. he added. hesTtat- ingly, for whom you are in mourn ing?"

Probably you have heard of the great feud between Hapley, the en- tomologist, and Prof. Hawkins.
 It began years and years ago. with revision of the microlepidoptera (vhatever these may bel by Hawkins, in which he extinguished new spe- cies created by Hapley. Hapley, who was always quarrelsome, replied by stfngfng impeachment of the entire classification of Hawkins.
 It was a long struggle. vicious from the beginning, and growing at last to pitiless antagonism.
 In 1891 Hawkins, whose health had been bad for some time, published some work upon the "mesoblasr of the Deaths Head Moth But the work was far below his usual standard. and gave Hapley an opening he had cov- eted for years.
 In an elaborate eritique he rent Hawkins to tatters. and Hawkins made a reply, halting, intellectual, with pain full gaps of silence. and yet malignant There was no mistaking his will to wound Hapley, nor his ines pacity to do it. But few of those who heard him realized how i'll the man was.
 Hapley had got his opponent down. and meant to finish him. He followed with simply brutal attack upon Hawkins in the form of paper upon the development of moths in general. The rejoinder of Hawkins was to catch the influenza, to proceed to pneumo- na. and to die.
 In his private thoughts Hapley could not forgive Hawkins for dying It left Hapley's mind with a queer gap in it. For 20 years he had worked hard, sometimes far into the night scope, scalpel, collecting-net and pen and almost entirely with reference to Hawkins It had killed Hawkins. but it had also thrown Hapley out of gear. so to speak. and his doctor advised him to give up work for a time and rest So Hapley went down into a quiet village in Kent, and thought day and night of Hawkins, and of good things it. was now impossible to say About him.
 At last Hapley began to realize in what direction the preoccupation tended. He determined to make a fight for it, and started by trying to read novels But he could not get his mind off Hawkins, white in the face. and making his last speech
 It was on the third day afterwards that Hapley became aware of novel addition to the local fauna. He was working late at the microscope, and the only light in the room was the brilliant little lamp with the special form of green shade
 One eye was over the instrument. With the other eye Hapley saw, as it were, without seeing.

Mrs. Louise Cleaveland Culver
died at her home in St. Louis, just
before one o'clock, Tuesday morn
ing, October 2, aged 50 years.
Deceased was the daughter of Gil
son Cleaveland, the oldest LIVING res
ident of this city; she was born in
Plymouth and was married here %
years ago, to w. w. Culver, a prom
inent stove and range manufacturer
of St. Louis and brother of III. H.
Culver, the founder of Culver Mill
tary Academy.
She was a prominent and efficient
worker in the Presbyterian church OF
this city before her marriage and had
hundreds of friends among the best
young and middle aged people of
Plymouth thirty years ago.
She visited here this summer and
went home only a few weeks ago.
Her death was caused by typhoid
fever after an illness of ten days, and
was shock to many friends here.
She leaves her husband, her aged
father and step-mother, one brother
and one sister.

for the social set to arrange for a

THE PENSION ROLL.
Interesting Figures Relative to a
Fast Decreasing Host.

The net decrease in the pension
roll of the United States for the As
cal year ending June 80 last amount
ed to 12,470, the largest decrease ever
known in the history or this country
These facts are brought out in the
annual report of Commissioner of
Pensions Warner, which has just
been completed. In the report the
commissioner expresses the opinion
that there will be a still more marked
decrease during the present year
Death was the principal cause of
the decrease of the last year, the
number of names dropped on that
account being $4,000. OF these go
2OS were those of survivors of the
civil war, leaving 666,453 survivors of
that war still on the roll. There are
still four pensioners on account of
the Revolutionary war, one widow
and the other three daughters.
The commissioners called atten-
ton to the fact that while there has
been a material decrease in the num-
Der of pensioners, the annual value
of the roll is nearly as large as it was
last year, arising from the fact that
the ratings of many individual pen
sions are constantly increasing
Pennsylvania has the largest num-
Der of pensioners, 9s,s29; Ohio fol-
lows 95,564, New York, s9,240. Dur
ing the year 2s,62s claims were al
lowed under order No. rs, allowing
old age pensions.
The reports shows that in the en-
tire history of the country the total
expenditure on account of pensions
has been s3,45s, s6O,a11, of which only
$96, 5,444 had been paid out prior to
the beginning of the civil war OF
the total $3,259, 1896 was on ac-
count of the civil war The total pay
ment of pensions on account of the
Spanish war reaches $15,43s,555 up
o date. The disbursements for navy
pensions during the year were s4,-

Parks spluttered around and then

but the first paragraph of the COM
plant completely confirms our action
in unseating the two committeeman
from Union township. Here is the
paragraph:

cinct in the State precinct commit
