the Philadelphia Inquirer. Out of a

year ago, left will bequeathing his
entire estate to Kofroth.
At the time it was not known that
the foreigner had any estate of conse.

proved that he was almost the sole
legatee of a wealthy uncle, silk

GIRL WAS OTHERWISE ENGAGED.
Father Right In Thinking He knsw
Cause Of Her preoccupation.

For some time the father of the fam.
lily had suspected that his girl apd the
young man of whom he disapproved
on account of his poetic tendencies
had been riding downtown together
and uptown together every day in the
elevated train, says the New York
Press. He hit upon diabolic plan
Dor verifying his suspicious.
Wonderful progress they are max.
ing on the Pennsylvania station" he
said.
The girl looked up dreamily. Are
they?" she murmured.
"Why, yes" said the father.
Haven't you noticed it?"
The girl said she hadn't.
"And there is that big building at
the corner Of Observation-Disclosures
street." he went on, that is going up
just like magic. 1t seems hardly no
time since 1t was only a hole in the
ground; now 1t is Is stories high, and
they're ready to put the windows in.
But maybe you haven't noticed that,
either?'
mo" said the girl, softly, II
haven't"
To test her still further the father
enumerated dozen other improve
ments along the line that were bound
to strike any observant eye. The girl
had been blind to them ALL The
father went upstairs to the girls
mother.
ITS hopeless case" he groaned
She's dead in love"
He told the mother how he knew.
IF she wasn't stepped in love-" he
added, "and If she didn't keep her eyes
fastened on somebody that talks non.
sense to her every minute, she'd never
have Travelled over that read twice a
day for the last three months without
noticing some of the things I pointed
out"
Maybe she was reading" ventured
the mother.
Reading" snorted the father.
Yes, from the most popular book on
earth. Call it reading If you like.
wouldn't be surprised to hear of their
engagement tomorrow"
1t was well that he was fortified
&gainst all such surprises, for that
was that he really did hear the very
next day. He had meant to storm and
stew, still, as there was nothing
against the young man except the
poetry, and as the girls heart was set
on him-well, what could father do?

A Matter of Buttons.

Under a street lamp in New York
group of men and boys were talking
and gesticalasing excitedly Two of
the men v re in uniform. Presently a
third man in civilians dress drew a
knife from his pocket and began to
execute savage thrusts about the neck
and shoulders of one of the uniformed
men. A woman sitting on doorstep
near by screamed in alarm.
What are they trying to do to that
MANI" she said. Kill him."
mot at ALL" laughed her compan.
ion. They are simply exercising the
right Of all free-born American citi-
zens and are demanding his buttons
as souvenirs. That fellow with the
knife is saving them off.
Every sailor and soldier who
strikes this port ought to come pro-
vided with several gross of extra but
