Some days ago a story appeared in
The Bulletin which may have seemed
fantastic to some readers telling of
a man who acted Shanghai Gough
looking fellow, uukempt poorly clad,
but always well supplied with money,
sleeping by day and wandering about
the streets by night, speaking to no
one except when addressed and then
answering IN monosyllables and
eyasively, muttering to himself or

humanity in general.

PERSIA'S LOSS,

In the death of the shah of Persia,
the world has lost its most illustrious
and penetrating perfume. In his
palmy days, visit from the shah was
a terror to the royal households
throughout Europe. MuzaffarE d-Din
visited England a good many years
ago, and certain palaces were assign
ed him and his retinue. When he
departed, all the resources of santa
ton had to be employed to Danish the
memory of his presence. His progress
through France, Austria and other
European countries was one grand
sweet carbolic acid song. Tornado
hyde and Persian powder were invent
might cope successfully against future
visitations of the shah But he will
taunt the olfactories of Europe no
more. He has passed away as tale
that is told. leaving 500 widows 10
mourn his loss. We trust that his
successor will not present so grave 4
problem in sanitation and that he has
acquired the habit of taking a bath.
Persia at one time used to turn out
rather fine brand of monarchs; but
1t is idle to hope that there Will ever
be another Cyrus or Darius. What
that country seems to need is Teddy
Roosevelt or a William Jennings Bry-
an.--Commercial Appeal.
