WHAT THE TEACHER DID.
Part of Programme Embarrassing to
BashfuI Young Man.

Here is a story 1hat is being told on
nice young man who teaches a Sun
day school class in North Baltimore.
1t has been told on other young men
before, and there is strong probable
ity that it never happened at all to this
particular young man, but his friends
have attached the story to him, and,
much to his discontinue, he must bear
1t. In the first place, he Is very bash
full, and the request made by the Sun
day school superintendent that he
take class of young ladies, who had
just lost their previous teacher, was
disturbing enough. The previous teach
er had been a charming woman, and
her loss was due to marriage with a
Washington man. The class of ten
charming young ladies waited while
the young man was being brought
from the other side of the room, where
he had been the presiding genius Of
class of small boys. This is Mr.. T.,
ladies'" announced the superintend-
ent. He has consented to become your
teacher, and | am sure he will find
the position a most delightful one"
Surely, surely" gushed Mr.. T. Il
shall be charmed, perfectly charmed"
and then as the superintendent moved
away, leaving him bashful, not to say
scared, he rushed into his duties at
once-"and now, ladies, if YOU will
tell me what your former teacher al
ways did first we will try carrying out
the same program" There was a few
moments silence, then a pert-looking
young miss, casting down her glances
most effectively, purred: We'll, if you
really want to do that way, Miss Grace
always kissed us good morning" This
may or may not be true, but the
young man declares the people who
are telling ii are mean.

$4,000 TONS OF CURRANTs.
Britons Seem to Be Exceptionally
Fond of This Fruit.

Our great.grandmothers. although
they had to pay very high price for
dried Currants, considered them quite
Indispensable to the compromising Of
those pies, furmities and tlorentines
which were the pride of every house
wife. Domestic catering must have
been an arduous undertaking in those
days, for currants and other dried
fruits were not to be procured out Of
London except once year, at the an
nual fair of the local market town.
The royal dish of plum porridge,
which it was the privilege of the
archbishop of Canterbury to serve
to a newly crowned sovereign, was
composed largely of currants. the fruit
being stewed in strong beef soup en-
riched with red wine and red sack.
Now that the order has changed and
simplicity is the keynote of the high
est class cookery, we BritOns have
trebled our appreciation Of the home
ly and wholesome currant; and al
though fiorentines and plum porridge
are dishes of the past, no less than
$4,000 tons of currants go every year
to the making of bread cakes, pastries
and puidings to tempt the British APP

Mr. Roosevelt has remarkable gift
for presenting truisms that no one dis.
putes, and his speech at Keokuk is made
up of CONGRATULATIONS that are sound
enough, but that do not helI Il bit in
settling the problems now before the
people. He did say that he would con.
tnue to prosecute the wicked trusts, but
he Mt no time said that he would at.
tempt to put an end to private monop.
oily, or to the Dingley scheme of legal.
lied robbery. Ina vague way he got
on to the Democratic platform, but at
no point was he definite, and he avoided
any reference to Dingleyism funds, or to
third term He did, however, indulge
in plenty Of platitudes based on the Ten

THE INSURGENTS" STAND PAT
The InSurgent Senators of the late
Legislature seem determined to keep
up their close-communion system and
extend it to State politics, and it is
essentially a creed of rewards and
punishments, eXaltation of the faith
full as well as exclusion of those who
have been guilty of party heresy. A
banquet was held in Tacoma, last
week, which partook of all the char
acteristics of an orthodox lOve-feast
and the utmost harmony prevailed.
Gov. Mead was unqualifiedly and en-
Enthusiastically endorsed for re-nomi-
nation, and all other State incum-
bents were approved in a milder
sense, except Ankeny for Senator
and the present incumbent of the
position for Lieutenant-G Governor.
They seemed perfectly willing to ac-
cept the Senator's declination, if it
should be rendered, and a fight will
be made against the " fifth wheel, !"
whose only duty to speak of, has
been to make very inadequate pre-
siding officer of the Senate. The
banquet was in honor of Senator Con-
don, and fifteen of the Insurgents
were present.

TERRIBLE EARTHQUAKE IN MEXICO.
Mexico has been the victim of the
latest earthquake disaster, occurring
at an early hour Monday morning.
The vibrations continued at inter-
walls for two hours, destroying two
towns-Chilpancingo and Chilapa-
and killing 500 persons and injuring
many others. One of the larger
shocks was four and half minutes
in duration, and the most intense
series of movements lasted for about
fifteen minutes-from 1:26 to 1:41.
The main shock was preceded by two
bright electric flashes in the north
west as viewed from the scene of dis
turbance. Thousands of people are
threatened by famine. The seismic
disturbances were fully recorded by
the weather bureau instruments at
Washington.

Turns Our TO HAVE BEEN A JOKE.
1t now turns out that the cause of
one of the periodical earthquakes in
the White House in Washington-the
story of the rich mems conspiracy"
and raising of fund of s., 900, 900 to
control the next Republican conven-
tion-was the reckless speech of a
man who attempted to perpetrate a
joke while under the influence of
liquor, at the Shoreham dinner, Civ
en- by Senator Bourne, of Oregon.
The object is said to have been to ex-
cite his host, who is a strong Roose-
welt man, but if seems to have passed
its mark and struck Secretary Loeb,
who was not SO well posted re-
garding the Penrose disposition to
string" his friends. Loeb, as in
duty bound, Immediately rushed to
the President with the story. The
President is an easy believer when
his corns are tread upon, and i'm
mediately flew into the air. His
belief in the statement is mistaken
by an explanation of the event and it
will take an explicit denial from Pen
rose to remove the impression, and
even then it is probable that he will
have to submit to the usual roast"
dealt out to everybody who comes
under Presidential displeasure.

In the case of State Us. Carrie Walker,
who has carried on the business OF

seems to think that these acts have
little if any effect upon the public
health. The defendant had applied
in due form for a license, but had
been refused the privilege by the
man-made and man constituted board
of barber examiners. 1t is likely the

CONSPIRACY TO DEPEAT JUSTICE
1t is reported, in a San Francisco dis
patch of Tuesday, that-probably
from influence of suggestion-the big
corporations have formed a combine
to supply the brains as we'll as the
"sinews of war" for defeating the
graft prosecutions that have been so
ably and successfully maintain ed
by Attorney Francis J. Heney. A
half a dozen corporations, listing in
the aggregate several hundred mil
lions of dollars capital, have united
in one of the most gigantic combina-
tiOns to fight the most stupendous of
legal battles the country has ever
known. 1t will probably go very far
towards determining whether money
and rascality are to rule, or justice,
fairness and equality.
