A Wet Blanket.

The youthful orator came down
from the platform at the close of his
address, and many people pressed
forward to shake him by the hand.
He accepted their congratulations
with smiling face, but his eyes
were on a certain auditor. who lin
gered in his seat. The young lee
turer pressed through the throng
about him and extended his hand to
the waiting man.
Il want to thank you," he said,
'for the close attention you gave,
to my remarks. Your upturned face
was an inspiration to me. I am
sure you never changed your earnest

Couldn't Understand His Spanish.

A story is told on a prominent
canal president of Hidalgo county
which is good enough to publish.
The hero of the tale has been in
this country several years, and has
learned little Spanish, but is far
from being a fluent speaker in that
tongue. Being on a prospecting
tour with some Northerners through
the country, they drove up to a
ranch to inquire the way to a Ger
tain place. And old woman, ap-
parently Mexican, whose brown,
wrinkled skin, gray hair, scrawny
bare arms and general disregard
of beauty of appearance, indicated
quite an advanced age, responded
to their call. In his best Spanish,
the canal man hbored through the
question he wished to ask.
"Eh?" said the old lady.
Again he put the query as to
direction and distances, endeavor-
ing to express it in INELIGIBLE
Spanish, and again the ancient
dame made him repeat it. Once
more he explained laboriously, the
limited Spanish at his command,
coming in hating terms.
Finally the woman looked up
with a broad grin and in an I'M
mistakeable Irish brogue said:
An can't you speak English
at alp"
The whole party enjoyed good
laugh OH the canal man, who
seemed rather relieved himself at
being able tor ask the question in
his mother tongue.

indianapolis Man Holds That

BINGHAM SAYS IT is GOOD.
ON ENTRIES THAT WERE MADE
IN HOUSE JOURNAL AND REG
ISTRY BOOK

indianapolis, April 9-The consti-
nationality of the Moore remonstrance
law, enacted by the last legislature, is
to be tested. according to Joseph T..
Bell, attorney, who represented large
liquor interests in the city and state.
Mr. Bells contention as to the I'M
constitutionality of the law is based
on the record as shown by the journal
of the house that this bill was put
on it's passage and passed when it
was up for consideration on second,
and not on third reading. This, ac-
cording to Mr.. Bell, is contrary to
that section of the constitution which
provides that a bill must be read on
three separate days before it may be-
come a law, unless the constitutional
rules are suspended by two-tbirds
vote of the branch which is consider
ing the measure.
The record in the house journal and
in the house registry book proves Mr.
Bells contention that the bill passed
the house when it was on second
reading
At the attorney-generafs Office it is
that the act is constitution

this office is that this act is legal and

plot TO KILL GO NICHOLAS REVEALED N Confession Of SOLDER

ST Petersburg, May 16.-A terrorist
conspiracy directed against the life Of
Emperor Nicholas, the existence Of
which has been suspected for some
time past, has been revealed by the ar
rest at Tsarskoe selo of soldier Of the
guard regiment who today confessed
to- the acceptance of large money
bf4be to assist in the murder of his
majesty.
According to the details of the plot,
the existence Of which has been con-
tirtned by one of the highest officials
Of the court, suspicion was directed
to the soldier by the fact that he was
seen to have in his possession con-
siderable sum of money The man was
at once placed under observation.
When he noticed that he was being
shadowed he became panic stricken
and sought the authorities. He then
broke down and voluntarily made his
confession, after which he begged for
protection.
All the threads of this conspiracy
which Is radically different from for
mer attempts of this nature, are not
