A Very Busy Man.

A school inspector went to investi- gate the case of a man who, although he could well afford to keep his chil- dren at school, had obtained labor certificates for them all and was talk ing frequent holidays while the poor little fellows worked to keep the home on.
 To his wifes plea that the young sters' wages were useful when fey ther" was out of work the inspector Teplied:
 "A mere quibble, ma'am. Your bus band has constant work, but is too lazy to do it. His employer told me so."
 ''Then it's a wicked story, and. I'm not particular who hears me say it!' cried the woman indignantly. My husban is the busiest man in England bar none. Why, he was up at day break this mornin' teachln' my youn- gest lad to swim, an he's walked ten miles across plowed fields to fly pl- gecn an won a bounce ball contest an a boxin' match since dinner, an now to wind things up" she added as a final proof of her husbands amazing industry. "he's down in the wood yon- der trainin' his dog to catch an Kill rabbits without leayln' the marks Of his teeth on 'em. If you want more work than that crowded into a day you must be a regular nigger driyer."- London Tit-Bits.

CARING FOR THE OLD.
The Humane wsy vienna Treats Ets
 Aged Poor People.

Aged Poor People.
 Tn most towns there is a tendency in this our day to deal more generously with destitute children than with des- titute men and women. In Berlin and New York. for instance, both money and thought are lavished on the young whom the community supports, while, as for the aged, what is given them Is given only of necessity. In Vienna 1t is otherwise. There the arrange ments for the relief of the old people are better-both more carefully cOnsid cred and more liberal-than those for the relief of children, a fact that says more perhaps for the hearts than Tor the heads of the authorities.
 If a man or a woman above sixty is without money wherewith to provide for himself or the strength to earn the money, he applies to the guardian of his ward for help. Then, if he has a home to live in and some one to take care of him or Is able to take care of himself. he Is granted out relief, money allowance if he can be trusted to spend it wisely; otherwise relief in kind. Supposing, however, he Is home less. feeble and "alone standing" he is sent to versorgungshaus, or old age home. if there is a vacant place there. and. if not, to a small poorhouse until there is.
 Versorgungshauser are the distinc- five feature of the Austrian poor relief system so far as the aged are con cerned. Already in. the days of Jo- seph II. Vienna had two, if not more, of these homes. and at the present time if has six. One of them is reserved exclusively for citizens; another, that at Mauerbach. Is reserved for persons who. owing to their perverted notions as to what is seemly, cannot be ac- corded the full liberty the old people in the other homes enjoy. In all the six together there is space for more than 6.OOO inmates. AS the versorS- ungshauser are looked upon by classes and masses alike as the homes of the aged poor, the place where they have a right to be, no disgrace is attached 10 going there. It would no more occur to an Austrian ex-worker to be ashamed of living in a versorgungshaus than 1t would to an English veteran to be ashamed of being at the Chelsea hos pital. There is not touch among the inmates of that pariah feeling which is so painfully evident among the ln' mates of our work On the con trary, they all seem to be extremely glad to be where they are and to De rather proud than otherwise of being | there. And as it is with them, so 1t IS with their relatives. There is no in clination on their part to look askance on these old people or to shun them On Sundays and holidays, indeed. the | homes are thronged with visitors come 1 to have a chat with old friends anC relatives and tell them the family news. They bring them little presents more often than not-caps with brgh | ribbons for the old women, neckteS perhaps, for the old men-for grea1 importance is attached to personal ap pearance in the homes, and, although the inmates are provided with gooc l clothes and are given voice in de ciding their color and form, they arc not provided with fnery.-Edith Sel 1 lers in Contemporary Review.

schooIboy's Essay on Henry VIII.

Henry VIII. was a frequent widow CT, conceited, cunning, cruel and corpu- lent. He burned the pOpe's bull in eff gy, beheaded his best friends, made himself defender of the faith by Lat in law and had an inordinate ambition and an ulcer in his leg. Henry sternly denied the validity of the proud pope of Roam and at last, worn out by an internal discord, died more in sorrow than in -Iarper's Weekly. ~

Especial Dispatch to the Morning Journal

Especial Dispatch to the Morning Journal.
Santa Fe, y. NJ. oct 22-The
United states grand Jury was excused
this afternoon until October 81 at 10
O'Clock a. m. This action was taken
on account Of the calling TO Washing
ton Of Assistant TO the Attorney Cen
eral Ormsby McHarg, who left for the
national capital tonight He will be
absent about ten days. during which
time he will go over-the Phelps-D Dodge
case and other matters thoroughly
with the attorney general Mr.. Me
Harg having been summoned to
Washington To hold conference re-
garding the indictments returned yes
terday.
In asking that the grand jury be ex-
cused. Assistant Attorney General
Gordon stated to the court that the
government had number Of other
cases to present to the grand jury but
that It was desired that Assistant At
torney General McHarg be present in
order to assist in the presentation Of
the cases. This last announcement on
the part of Mr.. Gordon has given an
other severe shock to large number
of anxious citizens who have been lis
tening for further true bills from the

FOUR MORE JURORS
EXCUSED FROM SERVICE

When court adjourned last evening
II adjourned until 10 o'clock this
morning. but, owing to the Illness OF
Judge McFie, there was no morning
session of the court The prand jury
met at 10 O'Clock. but adjourned un-
til 2 o'clock in the afternoon. With
out having transacted any business
At the afternoon session the jury re-
ported to the coul.s shortly after
o'clock and IL developed that there
had been one Of the members Of the
grand jury GreRorio Griego excused
from further duty. At the afternoon
session three other Jurors were eXcus-
ed from further service. They were
Luis NJ ortiz. Celso Ortiz and Pedro
RoybaL The places Of the four jurors
who were excused were filled from the
venire issued yesterday afternoon. The
new Jurors are Pedro A.. Luian, san
tiago Sena, J. NJ. Hartley and David
Catanach.
There was no reason given in court
as to why the four jurors were eNcus-
ed. but II is supposed that they have
been telling their friends In confi-
dental sort Of way what had been
happening In the jury room, and that
i'm this way what had been doing last
week came TO be reported on the
streets before the grand jury had re-
turned any indictments In open court
The impression Is gaining ground here
that there will be something doing In
court in the very near future, and this
impression seems to be strengthened
by the fact that the officers have been
looking for Ricardo Alarid for two
DAYS without success. II Is said that
he~was the first one to get the in
formation from the grand jury 10 the
effect that some Of those who were
Indicted xFagtardav uoul1 he indicted
Ricardo appears 10 have vanished, but
II is probable that he will be discov-
cred and that he viii be interviewed
by the court as 10 what he knows
about the Information which was FUR
nished the gOssips of the city.
