The Peaceful Cow.

She was even more afraid of COWS
than most girls, so when she spied a
placid animal recumbent under a
tree, peacefully chewing its cud, she
at first refused to go through the pas
ture at all. Her husband Gained her
fears to some extent, and they started
by, when the COW slowly commenced
to get up, hind legs first, as they al
ways do. At this the little lady
shrieked with terror, and said:
"Oh, Bob, hurry, hurry, he is getting
ready to spring at us!"-Harper's
Magazine.

Restricted Choice.

"The people and the corporations" i"
said Senator La Toilette the other
day, remind me of a woman and her
little boy. There was very large
chicken and a very small duck on the
table and the woman, pausing with
the carving knife raised, said: Johnny,
which will you take, chicken or duck?'
Duck piped Johnny. But the mother
shook her head. No, Johnny she said
in a firm, yet kindly voice, you can't
have duck, my dear. Take your
choice, darling, take your choice, but
you can't have duck"

HERE'S A NEW DEFINITION.
And Many There Are viii Say Senator
Platt Was Right.

A rather cynical joke has been re-
Gently credited to Senator Platt.
The senator, on his last visit to the
Manhattan Beach hotel, allowed a
pretty little girl, a western million
aires daughter, to be presented to
him.
The little girl, in the course of one
of her many chats with the aged
statesman, said:
"Tell me, won't you, senator, what
political economy is?"
Political economy, my dear child"
Senator Platt is said to have replied,
"is the art of never buying more
votes than you actually need"

Wireless Telephones for British War.
ships

The British admiralty have made all
arrangements for installing wireless
telephones in some of the vessels of
the fleet and the work is being carried
out by the Radio Telegraph Company.
1t is claimed that by these wireless tel
ephones conversation can be carried
on between two vessels that are thirty
miles apart.
The voices heard on these wireless
telephones are clear and distinct, and
telephoning is in many respects easier
at sea than on land. The wireless tele-
phone may be of great use to ves-
sells in foggy weather. They can speaE
each other at considerable distance,
and the admiral of the squadron might
from his cabin talk to every vessel of
his fleet

Two Remarkable Sermons.

One of the shortest sermons on re-
ord is said to have been preached by
the witty Dean Swift. A collection for.
the poor was to be taken up and the,
dean, who had been previously criti--
cised for the length of his sermons.
upon this occasion chose for his text:
Prov. XIX, IL He that hath pity up.
on the poor lendeth unto the Lord
If you like the security, down with
the dust" said the dean, and that was,
all. The collection was unusually
large.
Another OF Swifts characteristic,
sermons was one preached when he's
was dean of st. Patricks in Dublin
1t was as follows:
Man that is born of woman is Oh
few days and full of trouble
l. "1ngress into the world
Naked and bare.
2. Progress through the world,
Trouble and care.
8. "Egress out of the world,
Nobody knows where.
Practical remarks:
DO well here.
You'll do we'll there.
Concluding observations:
Couldn't tell you any more

COMMANDMENT OF COAST TOWNS

ABANDON TWO PORTS.

Puerto Cortez. Honduras.-A state.
ment of great moment in the
relations of the United States to Cen
trail American republics has been
given out here. 1t is that lombard
ments of coast towns cannot be per-
mitted during the frequent wars and
revolutions In Central American
states." The statement Is by Com
mander Fullam, of the United States
gunboat Marietta, and is part of let
ter to Gen. Estrada, commanding the
Nicaraguan expedition engaged in
capturing Honduran ports.
New Orleans, April 9.-That Puerto
Cortez was surrendered without fight
ing and that about 1900 Honduran
soldiers abandoned the port two days
before the Nicaraguan troops appear
ed was the information brought last
night by the steamer Anselm from
Puerto Cortez.
The HOndurans did not desert their
post through cowardice, according to
these dispatches, but decided that the
war was over. They returned to the
banana plantations where most Of
them had been employed as laborers
before the war began.
United States marines closed all
saloons in Ceiba after the abandon.
ment of the port by the Hondurans.

DELMAS PLEADS.
leading Counsel for Harry Thaw In
an Eloquent Speech Asks Jury to
Acquit His Client.

New York.-The trial of Harry
X. Thaw, charged with the muir
der of Stanford White, is nearing the
California advocate, on Monday began
his closing address to the jury and af-
ter he had spoken for more than two
hours and half, an adjournment was
taken until today. Mr.. Delmas ex-
poets to conclude before the luncheon
hour is reached. District Attorney
Jerome will make the closing address
of the trial on Wednesday and Thaw's
fate should be in the hands of the
jury by Wednesday evening.
Justice Fitzgerald ordered the jury
locked up until the end of the trial In
view of this, the judges charge to the
jury undoubtedly will be delivered i'm
mediately after the district attorney
concludes. The latter says his speech
will occupy not more than three or
four hours.
Declaring he would not base his
plea upon the "unwritten law" be-
cause his client found ample protec-
tion in the written statutes of the
state of New York, Mr.. Delmas made
oppSoi " thC JdlHleS VI
the jurors and, SO far as he pro-
crossed, the subject of Thaws insan-
ity at the time he committed the homi-
eide was not even limited at.
Mr.. Delmas based his argument
solely upon the story of Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw. With flushed cheeks, but dry
eyes, that young woman heard her life
history repeated to the men who are
to judge her husband and bowed her
head as her mother was denounced in
the bitterest terms the eloquent law
yer could command.
Mr.. Delmas accused Mrs. Nesbit OF
having lived upon the wages of her
daughters ruin. He sought to picture
to the jury what he termed the sinis-
ter surroundings in which the girl had
been reared and in doing so he mer-
cilessly attacked the mother. Mr.. Del
mas rose to the highest point of his
address when he told the jury that the
girls mother was the one who had
furnished District Attorney Jerome
| with the arrows with which to wound
the daughter on cross-examination.

street Railway War is Renewed.

Cleveland, April 6.-War between
the Cleveland Electric Railway Co.
and Mayor Johnson is on once more.
The present rate of low fare given by
the company to induce the council to
grant 1t an extension of franchises, is
to be abandoned and the old rate of
five cents cash or IL tickets for so
cents has been restored. Probably
the injunctions restraining the opera
tion of Forest City Co. lines, raised
under the terms of the truce, will be
put in force at once. Renewal of war
fare was precipitated at the meeting
of the city council Friday by the re-
fusal of the Cleveland Electric Rail-
way Co. to accept the city's offer to
lease it's property, through holding
company.
