POVERTY IN ENeLIsH CITES.
Appalling State Of Misery That Is Un'
known in America.

No country in the world exhibits so
painfully and so publicly the squalor
and suffering of the poor as England.
There are slums in New York, but
London is all slums. The misery OF
the poor and the vices to which the
poor fly for an anodyne to misery,
overflow the precincts of the East End
and stain Mayfair. If selishly bent, a
man can escape the evidences of
human suffering in an American city.
The people of Fifth avenue might
never know that there was such a
thing as abject poverty if they did not
see it in its least unfavOrable aspect
from a cab window while on their way
to their country houses on Long island
or in New Jersey. But in London
there is no escape. Base, brutalizing
poverty sweeps along Park lane and
gazes with sorrowful, cowardly eyes
at the palaces of South African mil
lionaires. 1t crowds the June morn
ing parade of smart ladies in Bond
street. 1t touts for cabs or needlessly
sweeps crossings in front of the restau-
rants. 1t fills the Strand with drunk
ards and Piccadilly with prostitutes.
1t is to be seen in the squares of the
fashionable neighborhoods where its
presentment is drunken women asleep
with their. babies in their arms. Eng
land may be the richest country in the
world, but London is swamp OF
dreadful poverty. In degree the
provincial cities are as bad. Who that
has ever seen them can forget the
palpable miseries of the poor of Edin
burgh and Glasgow and Dublin?-

who began mis- military service with
splendid fighting in the gallant First
Iowa at Wilson's Creek and kept it
up for a year after the war in con-
flict with the hostile Indians. By good
soldlership Comrade Ware rose from
an enlisted man to captain, and
made a record of which any man may
be deservedly proud. He steadfastly
refused q pension until last year,
when he took a deep interest in Miss
Laura Mary Ramsey, girl Of II
years and the daughter of a neigh
Dor. She is very ambitious Of an edu-
cation, and, Furthermore, has big,
manly brother, splendid type of the
young American soldier, who is help
ing support her and give her an edu-
cation. When but a boy he enlisted In
the Twentieth Kansas and was one
of the members that made that regi-
ment's distinguished history in the
Philippines. When he returned to this
country with his regiment Mr.. Scott
gave him an appointment to West
Point, whence he graduated with hon
ors. He was commissioned a second
lieutenant in the Ninth United States
infantry. His record since has been
worthy of his past and his friends
have great hopes for his future in the
army. Little Miss Laura says that she
will put the pension money in bank
until the time when she graduates
from the Topeka schools, and use it
for her education in some higher in
stitutions.

miners excavating near Starunia made
an interesting historic find in the re.

include two teeth, six feet in length,

parts Of the vertebral column, and
three or four yards of hide, upon which
the hair is still fresh, joints and other
bones, and one foot Of the animal. The
remarkable state Of preservation in

MARTYR TO HOME COOKING.
Wife Wanted Him to Test It for Her
Own Experience.

The first part of the dinner had gone
off with quite surprising success, but
when the young housewife put the
dessert upon the table there seemed
to be a halt in the proceedings. Il
don't believe I'll take any of this,
dear" her husband said. You see, I've
eaten so much, and you know, desserts
aren't my strong point anyway"
That's a delicate way Of saying
that they aren't mine, she pouted.
but you'll have to eat this one, any
way, for economy's sake, if for nothing
else"

"Because"-this in a confessional
tone-"it represents So much. | was

GETTING A FURLoUGH.
DaIgetty Could Not Lie and So He
Had to Go Back to Camp.

The old excuse for obtaining leave
of absence, proverbial among college
students, was not unknown to the
soldiers of the civil war; according to
Maj. Hamilton's account given in the
Southern Historical Papers," Orders
had been issued from headquarters to
the effect that no furloughs would be
granted save on the occasion of a
death in the family of the applicant
Dalgetty, an Englishman, asked for
leave ON account of the decease of his
grandmother, and the request was ap-
proved.
Unfortunately for Dalgetty the col
Onel of the regiment met him before
he had chance to get away.
II am very sorry to hear of your af-
Fiction" said the kind officer. when
did your grandmother die?"
Thank you, colonel" replied Dal-
getty, edging away. She was very
old and couldn't have lasted much
longer"
"Ah; and when did she pass away?"
Its quite an afhlctlon, continued
Dalgetty, still on the move. "We shall
miss her.
Perhaps you are hard of hearing!"
roared the colonel, in voice sufficient
for a brigrade front. Il asked you
when she died?"
"She's been dead 40 years, sir" ="
calculated Dalgetty, dismally. 81 can't
lie about it, but think l ought to have
q furlough on it,"
The colonel had to laugh, but he
sent the soldier back to camp. A few
days later Dalgetty got a bullet in his
leg. AS he was carried off the field he
shouted to his comrades, slapping his
thigh:
Thirty days leave and no death in
the family"

Effect Of SERVING on Grand Jury.

There is one sure way to get a
man interested in the proceedings Of
the criminal courts" said the gray
headed man, "and that is to put him
on a grand jury. Just let a man once
serve the public in that capacity and
thenceforward he becomes an inde-
fatigable student of the criminal rec.
ords. The result of his experience is,
in a way, inevitable. Naturally any
man with a spark of curiosity about
him is anxious to know the outcome
of the trials of the persons he has
found indictments against. In fol-
lowing these cases through the vari-
Gus courts he acquires an interest
in judicial proceedings that really
never dieS."-N. Y. Sun.

Costume Suggested Would Have Made
Youth Look Like Circus Freak.

Not long ago large clothing house
in New York received letter from
the remote southwest to this effect:

groom in the afternoon"
The clerk who opened the mail re-
ferred the inquiry to the livery depart
ment, and the head of that department
dictated brief reply:
Bottle green coat, fawn-colored
trousers, with top boots, silk hat and
cockade. We can make you prices"
In about a week came a plaintive
note:
Il always knew it was expensive to
get married, but can't you suggest
something a little less elaborate?"

SensibIe to the Last.

An old Scotch woman used to be
attended by a doctor to whom she in
variably gave a guinea when he went
to see her. He had told the friends
with whom She lived that her death
would probably be sudden, and one
day he was hurriedly sent for, as she
appeared to have become unconscious.
On his arrival he saw at once that she
was dead, and, taking hold of her
right hand, which was closed but not
rigid, he calmly extracted from it the
fee which she had provided for him,
and as he did so, he murmured:
Sensible to the last" e..

Had No Excuse for Lateneas.

At Worsley there are two clocks on

as to strike 1S at the hour of one. One
of these is over the new entrance to
Worsley hall, in the center of Worsley

Quite sober, my lord replied the
