MR.. BLANK STILL WAS AHEAD.
Aspiring Politician Had Covered
Ground Pretty Thoroughly.

A minister and a lecturer who
had spent many of their younger
days together CHANGED to meet re-
Gently, and at once began to review
the good times they had enjoyed in
times past. One had been Repub-
lican and the other a Democrat;
they were running for the same
Office but neither had any money to
put into the campaign, and conse-
quently had to work their popularity
for all they were worth. The
preacher concluded that the best
scheme was to pet the children, tell
them they were nice, and in a gen.
eral way give them a good jollying.
They would, he thought, be sure to
tell their parents and so impress the
male members of the family that
ballots would be cast for him on
election day. When he recognized a
little girl in whose family there
were several male members whose
votes would be acceptable, he stop
ped and chatted for while.
"You certainly are a nice little
girl" he said, ''and | am going to
give you a stick of candy" The lit
tie girl took it.
ooh, Mr.. Blank" said the little
girl, mentioning his rivals name,
gave me a bag of candy" The
minister was not to be outdone by
his rival. Reaching into his pocket
he pulled out penny.
snow l am going to give you
something that Mr. Blank didn't
give YOU" he said, "I'm going to
give you a penny"
'Mr. Blank gave me Nickel" re-
piled the little girl, as she took the
penny. This was more than the
politician had bargained for.
"Well, | am going 10 do some
thing that l am sure Mr.. Blank
didn't do. | am going to kiss you.
And before she could resent it he
kissed her. After recovering from
her surprise the litle girl remarked :
eyes, Mr.. Blank did kiss me.
And he kissed mamma, too" That
ended the discussion.

Touch Of Black on Hats.

A bow of black Is the "cachet" of
some of the newest models of garden
hats for the coming summer. Won.
derful to behold are these chapeaus,
with their gorgeous and overabundant
trimming OF flowers and knots of black
velvet. The knots are always placed
where their glory may not be hidden,
directly over the left ear, holding the
brim up at that point. Their tails,
numbering as many as an up-to-date
muff and made of inch wide ribbon
OF all lengths, bangle at will on the
shoulder.

A 444-YEAR LAWSUIT.

In the two villages of Luceran
and Lancoque, in the Alpes-Mari-
times, France, June 10 was kept as
a public holiday to celebrate the end
of a great lawsuit which has kept
the two villages divided since No
vember IA, 1862. The question in
dispute was the possession of a piece
of land at Iowa, which each village
claimed. A few days ago the court
at Nice definitely settled the matter
by dividing the land equally be-
tween the villages. The total cost
of this lawsuit during the 444 years
amounts to $4,000, while the
value of the land in dispute was
about $4,000. The law papers which
had accumulated were docketed in
1856 parcels, which weighed 16
tons, and were stored in a large,
disused church.-Ameriean Lawyer.

Illinois Convict Identified as Murderer

convict, John Mahran, identified as

on the charge of numbering Policemen

1899. Mahran's identification was
secured solely through the personal
efforts of Chief of Police Delaney, who
stated last night that there was no
doubt in his mind that he was Level
lyn.
The prisoner was brought to this
city from the Illinois State Penitenti-
ary at Joliet by Chief Delaney and
Detective George Sanders. They ar
rived at 10 o'clock over the Union Pa
cific and the man was taken to the
Jail in hack. No one was allowed to
converse with him during the night:
To the detectives who accompanied
him from the depot to the jail he was
uncommunicative.
Send me anywhere but to Denver.
he is alleged to have said to the I'LL
nois state pardons board which pa
rolled him in order that he might
stand trial for the double murder in
Denver When told that he was to
be taken to Denver 1t Is said he began
to tremble and In a voice shaking
with fear he ia said to have begged
not to be brought to this city. Rather
than come to Denver. he stated. he
would be willing to return to the JEFF
fersonville prison in Indiana to serve
out long balance OF fourteen-year
sentence for murder. He was pa
rolled from that penitentiary, although
he IL alleged to have once knocked
down a guard while there.
Mahran has steadfastly refused to
talk on the murder here. In speaking
of him last night, Cher Of Police De-
laney said:
II told him that without any per-
sonal feeling against him l believed
from all the evidence in my possession
that he was Wellington c. Llewe.lyn,
the murderer. He didn't say he was
not and he looked me straight In the
eye"
Some OF the most damning evidence
ever secured against prisoner will
be presented at the trial of Mahran.
