Rivals n Love.

As MAJOR Sylvester says, Dorsey
slew a 'comlade in affairs of love"
Robinson's heart seemed to have been
pierced by the same dart which sly
Dan had 6red ct Dorsey. and much
trouble of a serious nature resulted
Time and again Dorsey came upon
his turtle dove spooning in the
cleaning with Robinson and his five
feet 1--WE inches Of consumptive stature
shook with anger. Words failing of
force, it vas Dorseys wont to ever
and anon carve his initials on the
cheek or scalp of Mr.. Robinson. but
still James was not scOuFaged.
on Memorial Day, and it Is trulya a
day to be remembered by Major Syi-
vester and his cohorts. twelve years
ago, Dorsey was tripping his way from
- street alley 10 a nearby gFoggery,
when he espied a sight that prompted
his hand TO steal 20 his hip pocket,
wherein shooting irons were carried
for Just such contingencies.

Was Going for ''Suds."

1t was Dorsey's intention when he
left his shack in the alley to purchase
for his individual consumption mo
pun intended ''fbe cents with OBJ
suds," he had his individual 'gFowler'
with him at the time. Forgetting all
thought of ''suds'' and the beloved
can he whipped out his revolver,
crept stealthily Up to the corner where
stood his duslIy amorita, who blushed
at the sweet nothlngs which James
poured into her ear.
''Niggar," shouted Dorsey, as he
rushed to Robinsons side and flashed
the revolver under the light OF a street
lamp. "Ah told yo' lass mite tub let
dat gal lone. Yo' amt heered me. an
Aim gwine make 20 feel
So saying, he leveled the revolver ct
the frightened James head and ended
the rivalry with q bullet n the latter

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness and that is by constitutional
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition OF the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound of imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness Is the result and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

l went out to his home and found
a reasonably well preserved three
or four room house on one ace of

dockets, the revised statutes of Texas
and possibly another law book or
two. During his absence l took down
his dockets and examined his work
and found that while his judgments
were not copies of form books. they
were evidence of the fact that he

WASHINGTON, d. C. May ALI
Washington is laughing at the extra
ordinary speech delivered by Senator
Jeff Davis of Arkansas today in be-
half Of his bill to suppress pools and
trusts and do some other things.
The speech makes about forty type
written pages and is full of the most
remarkable English ever perpetrated
upon the United States senate.
1t may be that Mr. Davis wrote it
himself. If he did he is possessed of
a peculiar faculty for stringing words
together without regard to their Sc
quence, and has delirious sense OF
which makes his literary efforts ir-
resistibly comic.
To give a correct idea of the elo-
quence of this Arkansas senator, he
ralded as a possible rival of Tillman it

tracts from the verbatim manuscript

GROWING OBSOLETE

The old-fashioned notion that there
is a hereditary enmity between the
peoples of some nations is becoming
obsolete. The latest bit of evidence on
that point is furnished by the close re-
lations said to subsist between Austria
and Germany. Within the memory of
comparatively young men these ma
tions were fighting for supremacy on
the field of battle; now they are pat
ting each other on the back. Nations
shape their actions on the demands OF
the present and not on the prejudices
of the past.-S. F. Chronicle.

Admiral Evans, in his speech at the
banquet at the st. Francis, San Fran

Gentlemen, | would like to have the

was most unfortunate for me, and a
great disappointment when, after
reaching the shores of California. |
found myself too i'll to join in the fes-
tivities which were made for the At

Symmes. He told me of the springs
that cured rheumatism at Paso Robles.
If had stayed at Paso Robles [ would
have been a well man, but | came to
San Francisco as l said | would, and |
would have been great deal worse if
| had not. What rheumatism | had
was taken away yesterday by the well
come | received at the hands of the
people of San Francisco. If | ever have
this rheumatism again | am going to

People ask why this fleet came to
the Pacific. I can only answer that |
was told to bring it here and here it
Is. | suppose | may say without vio-
lating any ethics, that was assured
by the President of the United States
that this was purely a peaceful cruise
OF the Atlantic fleet, but | must be pre-
pared to fight if necessary. So | came
on this peaceful cruise and in the end
! have presented to you the Atlantic
fleet.
Wuld ask you to be good to the
men of the fleet They are white as a
yard. In few short weeks | shall have

In that time | have seen many changes

1t was held for many years that no line

burn the thing it was boiled in. There
is a mistake about that. And today,
in the beautiful fleet you see lying
here, every ship Is run by line officers
and they were never in better condi-
ton. | bet that whole fleet could steam
at its contract speed tomorrow.
You heard a good deal of talk" late
ly about water line armor belts. There

conflict. One would imagine that eggs
were hung around the water line of a
ship to be smashed by every shell that
