Piaci7a the Responsibility.

For six months or more the drug gist's assistant had occupied his leisure moments by writing verses for the vil- lage paper. in the poets corner or which publication they appeared anony- mously every Thursday, says the Youths Companion. On opening his copy of the Weekly Bugle one morning and, turning first, as was his regular habit to that particular corner. he was surprised and gratificd beyond meas ure to see his name ill full appended to his latest poetical outbreak.
 He hastened to call at the office of the Bugle.
 "Mr. Stres," he said to the editor, 'I want to thank you for signing my name. to my poem in this. weeks paper. It encourages q fellow when he gets proper credit for his work
 "Oh, that's all right. Jobson,' re. sponded the editor We thought [ was about time to place the responsi- bility for that poetry where 1t be longed."

Queen Sophia and Bismarck.

Queen Sophia of the Netherlands, the first wife of King William III. of Hol- land, was too great friend of En- peror Napoleon III. the Empress Flu genie and of France generally to take kindly to Bismarck. Before the big war of 1870 and probably some time after the Luxembourg squabble there was an international exhibition in Am sterdam, which the queen visited. She was conducted over the whole place by the committee, and as they came to certain section one of the members said, "Now your majesty will see the greatest enemy of Germany" "Ah, Bismarck" she cried, with some glee. The members stood aghast and never repeated this rash exclamation. The "greatest enemy he had to exhibit was not, of course, Bismarck at all, but only a very much enlarged repro. duction Of either the phylloxera or the Colorado beetle which at that time did a great deal of harm to German aSri- culture" cstmnster Gazette.

 AT NEW ORLEANS

New Orleans, La, Nov. 22.-All is in readiness for the blowing of the bugle at City park tomorrow, inau- gurating the winter racing season in the Crescent City. Colonel Matt J. Vim, who will manage both tracks, is enthusiastic in regard to the sea sons prospects, and he appears to be justified in his enthusiasm, since some of the best horses in the coun- try are stabled here and more are on the way. With no competition worth mentioning east of the Pacific coast, New Orleans will be the Mecca of an unprecedented number of the racing fraternity this winter
 The feature race of the opening day will be the Initial handicap, a mile dash, with an added value of $1,500 Next on the stake program is the Thanksgiving handicap, a mile and sixteenth, worth $1,50o A week from tomorrow the Test stakes will be decided, this event being dash at six furlongs for 900 in added money Then will follow a considerable interval without any
 stake events, until the Christmas handicap at a mile and sixteenth is run. All of these early stakes are for all ages.
 Beginning with the first of the new year, an average of two important stakes will be decided each month The two-year-old events will include the Martha Washington, National, Louisiana and Juvenile. For the three-year- there will be the La. garade and the City Park Derby, the latter worth 5000. Eight all age stakes will be run after the first of the year. In addition to these stakes, an equal number will be run at the Flair grounds track, includingf the Fair Grounds Derby and the Bush cup.

This is the first important lottery prosecution since that last year against the Honduras Lottery compa ny, whose printing and ticket dis tributing office in Mobile was raided by secret service operatives and was forced out of business. The Hon. duras concern was conducted by New Orleans men and was the successor
 of the famous old Louisiana lot tery. Thousands of tickets in the Honduras drawing were sold month ly in Chicago before the company was forced to suspend operations by the government. While the Honduras company made a fortune for it's oWn- CTS, enabling them to live in luxury on the profits from the sale of tick cts, it's drawings were conducted with some degree of fairness and many large prizes were paid to the holders of lucky numbers
