The Compensation Smiled.

Two country -clergymen had agreed
to exchange pulpits on a certain date.
One Of them made the following SOL
emn announcement to his congregation
on the Sabbath previous to the event:
my dear brethren and sisters, have
the pleasure Of stating that on next
Sunday morning the Rev. Zachariah B,
Day will preach for you. Let us now
sing two verses Of hymn No. 48e, That
Awful Day Will Surely Come"
And 1t took him some time to discov-
err why the congregation smiled.

NEGRO NOT LYNCHED.
Alleged Lynching OF Negro at WEIGH
Said to PC n Fake. :,

Bluefield, w. Va, Sept. 4.-The
report became current that the ne
gro, William Woodson, who killed
Conductor Sidney Bolton, had been
lynched Friday night at Wclch.
This proves to be unfounded. The
body OF an unknown negro was found
by the railroad tracks Friday, near
McClaren, and this is what probably
caused the report to be started. The
negro who killed Conductor Bolton
is in Jail at WEIGH. He was only
slightly injured and was not taken
to the hospital.

Witty Women,

Women have more wit than humor.
They are more sensitive than men.
Their minds are ninbleF. T4reir

intellectual patience to create or enSoy
the less obvious and more deliberate
moods OF humor.--Munsey's Magazine.

it was SO late that it was impossible

the kitchen with the dinner in pre-

nicely husked and also boiling. The
dinner was soon in readiness, and 1T
was a good one, too. So you see, lad

Hill has been able to do and is do

II The great mystery about Indo- China
and one which must ever be insoluble
is the story Of the lost race and the
vanished civilization Of that strange
country. The mighty walls of Angkor-
Wat, rising in the midst of sparsely
settled jungles, remain as the memo
rial of a great empire which has ut
terly disappeared and is altogether lost
to history. No one will ever know
who planned this gigantic temple or
what tyrant bounded on his myriads
of people to build up those immense
blocks of stone and cover them with
the most elaborate of sculptures. Ang-
kor-Wat was one Of the most aston
ishing monuments in the world, and
this forgotten temple was built so as
to endure: as long as the earth itself
were 1t not for the irresistibly de-
structive effect of plant life on the
strongest walls that man can raise.
Only a highly civilized and very
wealthy people could have erected
Angkor-Wat. a very different race from
the 5Anamite Of modern days. The
whole nation has disappeared as utter
ly as the busy myriads who once pop
ulated the wastes and solitudes of
Memphis. Singapore Free Press.

He Got the Trout.

A story dealing with a large trout
that was rising regularly and frequent
~ is told in How to Fish: A Treatise
on Trout and Trout Fishers" This is
the story:
HE was going up and down, up and
down, up and down; not as the insects
offered themselves, but as it suited his
composure that he should take nudge
from the abundance. One youth was
casting at the trout; another was look
ing on. Said the angler, I'll have that
fish whether he takes 1t or not
'HowT his friend asked. I'll throw
the fly into his mouth The trout
went on rising; the angler went on
casting. I perceived the anglers no
ton. It was that If he kept casting
accurately and the trout continued to
rise in the regular manner mentioned,
the fly would ere long fall at the very
moment when a nudge was being
taken. This reckoning was justified.
The large trout was hooked and land
ed by a fly that had been cast into his
mouth" = @s t'E,Ff ~, $,s1&e'''.s r.. Z

Chicago Will Receive Over a
Million Dollars Pen Year
From Trolley Lines

Chicago, Sept. 27-The oity's share
of the net profits of the Chicago City
Railway company for the first. six
months ending July 81, will be $27s,-
219. Is. @.a<.. s... ....... H. Ii -t
E This information was given yes
terday in the first official statement
of the financial results of the opera
ton of the traction settlements or
dinance, made by President T.. e.
Mitten, of the railway company, in a
letter to John A. Spoor, chairman of
the executive committee of direct
ors.
The report shows that the total
net profits for the period is $685.
$50 and the company's share $225,-
34S. These figures, are based on the
city getting 30 per cent and the com
pany getting 10 per cent of the net
profits, as provided in the ordinance.
During the political canvass prior
to the lection of April 8 last, at
which the traction settlement ordin-
ances we're Endorsed, the cry was
heard that met profits" under the or
dinance would be init profit" that
the companies would see to it that
no profits were shown.
Mr.. Mitten's letter, a copy Of which:
has been sent to Mayor Busse and
City Comptroller Wilson, shows that
the net profits to the city from the
operation Of the Chicago City Raj
way ordinance alone will be nearly
$500, 900 a year. With the Union
Traction lines earning 90 to % per
cent more than the Chicago City
lines-yet to be brought into the ac-
counting system, it is conservatively
estimated that the city will have at
least 1,soo. 900 a year from the net
profit division
