Man Who Dimes Out.
What chance has the diner out of

actions of eating and drinking are nei-
Their pretty o conducive to showing
people at their best. 1t is really a
most uncouth sight to see a man or a
woman stocking food. The necessity
Of being polite at the same time makes
It uncomfortable as we'll. No sooner
have you got into conversation with a
pleasant woman than the soup in your
mustache stops oil inspiration. She
despises you for your play with your
napkin, and your mustache Is out of
shape. And who can feel that the
evening is going to be what he hoped
when he realizes that his shirt front is
smirched with some relic of the meal2
Indeed, dinner parties are really a
struggle between eating and talking, a
struggle which does not always end.

Thus far the work appears TO be
progressing sery fayorably and ac-
cording TO present Indications The
heirs who have their direct lineage
complete may come in possession of
at least q part ii not all OF this enor-
nous fortune which has been esti-
mated at q value of one and one

Efforts have been made during re-
cent ear to effect some sort of set
Element with the Trinity church cor
poration. The working committee of
pany has made numerous demands
and it has beer reported that the
manager of the church corporation
has acknowledged that the corpora
ton has no title to the property. This
acknowledgment is said to have been
made to the members of the commit
tee, but nevertheless the Trinity
church people are doing all within
their power to retain possession.
Mr.. Lopez is we'll informed upon
the history of the estate being in
possession of numerous papers and
copies of records. He attended the
convention at Cleveland and there
gained valuable information regard
ing the matter in almost complete
detail.
In fact all of the heirs are show
ing profound interest and are ex-
pecting that the matter will reach
the stage of settlement which will
give them their amounts due.
Mr.. Lopez is in receipt of many
inquiries regarding the matter and
in order to answer them with JUS
tice to all concerned he has prepared
a circular letter giving a short ac-
count of the matter which will be
printed and forwarded to those who
are anxiously seeking information for
the purpose of giving assistance to
the matter of effecting an early set
Element. MI. Lopez has many friends
here, all of whom will learn with
pleasure of this matter and earnest
ly hope that an early adjustment in
the matter will assure him of his
share.

The voIIey Over the Graus.

The firing of a volley by soldiers
over the grave of a dead comrade is a
survival Of a very ancient custom. In
days gone by, when superstition was
practically universal, it was generally
believed that making a noise kept
away evil spirits, and the passing bell
came into vogue for that reason. When
firearms were invented volley firing
was substituted for the passing bell,
the belief being that the sound Of bat
tie, would be ef6cacious In the
case of q soldier.

Professor Thomas himself calls at
tention to races of women who were
stronger than their men, physically
and every other way; also that often
the 10 called weaknesses Of the fe-
male character have been due to de-
veIopment rather than to structural in
feriority. To the main proposition
which he stands for femininists may
answer that history shows great men
controlled by woman or women,
great epochs In which the sway Of wo-
men was complete, and stages OF civ
ilIzation, az in ancient Egypt, Athens
and Sparta, where women ruled the
home, directed commerce and con
trolled the state. In brief, many noted
events and personages In history must
be explained away and lessons from
everyday experience thrown to the
winds before society can be convinced
that there ID a dead line in woman's
progress, to be crossed only at peril u
the entire human race, because nature
has proclaimed to one sex thus far
and no farther"

HAT YER N

Several years ago there resided in q
town near Boston an old settler who
had accumulated a fortune.
He was called 1.-THE doctor for rca-
sons best known to those who attached
TO his name this honorary cognomen."
He resided In a large and splendid
house located at the top of hill near
the main road from Boston to Worces-
ter, and II there was any one thing
the doctor prided himself ON more than
another It was cleanliness about his
mansion.
The white eolonnade and steps lead
Ing To his house We're constantly kept
as pure from soiling as were the rich
carpets which covered his parlor floors.
His servants We're continually busy in
polishing the platform In front of his
mansion. and the doctor could see his
face reflected in the bright surface
which had been brought out upon the
carefully rubbed stairs. And some of
his vicious neighbors-one especially,
who had been oyerreached by the
sharp doctor-hecame acquainted with
the old fellows hobby. and he deter
mined to embrace the first opportunity
for revenge.
One terribly dark and stormy night
In early spring there came along
strange traveller. who halted at the
door Of the man who had sworn to be
even" with the doctor.
The stranger was looking for lodg-
ings, for his horse had fallen lame, the
path was knee deep with mud, the
roads had been In a dreadful condition
for II week, and he was yet some miles
from town. He told his pitiful story,
and the farmer instantly bethought
him of a plan for satisfaction.

about his customers, but You needn't
be afeard. It's public house, and he
can't shut his door agin a benlghted
traveller, though he'll blur you off If
he can"
"Waal, I'd like TO see the tavern
keeper that can blur me such night
as this ere II" said the stranger. And
away be went toward the elegant man
sion of the doctor.
"Go right into the front door," saId
the farmer to the visitor. Don't mind
anything he says, for, between our
selves, we think the old scamp's lit
tie crazy sometimes, but tell him It's a
public honse and you're bound to stay
overnight"

And he was very soon at the front
door Of the doctors house.
"Hello. thereF' he bawled, and, seiZ-
Ing upon the bell pull, he well nigh tore
It of. "Hello, say-house! Wot in
thunder--are We all deadT' And the
summons was instantly answered by
brace of servants, accompanied by
the doctor himeelf.
The door was quickly opened, and in
marched the traveller, covered with
mud. drenched to the skin, whip In
hand and evidently delighted to find
such capital quarters.
"Ah, this Is very Welt Hoss at the
door; look after him, you fellow there;

four quarts Of chopped feed when he's

order he stalked straight into the doc

For fully Ave minutes the doctor had
no words for utterance, but at last his
fury burst forth.

"What!" exclaimed the doctor.
"Hush! Keep quietl I'm a-goin' to

boots.

and here / stay tonight, sure"
And he very leisurely stood his wet
cowhide boots against the side Of the
elegant chimneypiece
The victimized doctor raved and
vented all manner Of curses on the
stranger, repeatedly ordering him to
quit his house, in reply to which he
heard only the words, "Be still, ole
feller-be still, still--qulet-'s no use,"
which CALCULATIONS grew fainter and
fainter until at last the doctor gazed
at the face OF the traveller and found
he had fallen asleep before the fire.
After exhausting the entire vocabu-
larry of his wrath he left the intruder
I'm peaceable possession of the premises,
finding 1t impossible to move him. At
daylight the old fellow voluntarily con-
cluded to bulge, and the doctor actually
