William J. Bryan, on his last visit
to New York, declined to answer one
of a Washington correspondents ques-

There was, you know. a young foun-

suading a stationer to order 500 pens.
But all of a sudden the stationer's

eggs AND SALT MACEEREl
Patrons of Free Soup Kitchen Have
Merry Times Over Graft
CHARGES

Patrons of the Volunteers free sour
kitchen had merry time yesterday dis
cussing the graft scandal.
How much ought a man get for moth
ing demanded one man.
Eggs: was the prompt response.
'Nothin' but eggs?''
An mackerel-gOOd old salt mackerel 50
The abSuTdity of the talk of graft
IN connection with the free soup kitchen
Appeared as strongly to most of the I'M
employed men as to other persons.
The leaders in the movement to discredit
Captain Mccoy were ridiculed unmerci-
fully. These men. realizing that they had
made blunder, apologized to Captain Nc
Coy yesterday.
Alfred Smith the Mr.. who
declared that he saw with his own ewes
the grating of some eggs and a buck L
of salt mackerel from the free soup kftch-
en- to the Volunteers restaurant went to
Captain Mccoy with tears in his eyes and
confessed that he had done wrong.
James Fenton, who was energetic in the
graft investigation instituted by the
inmates of the shelter was ashamed to
face Captain Mccoy and called him up
over the telephone saying that he was
sorry he had caused the captain annoy
ance.
AS far as the unfortunate men are con-
cerned' said Captain Mccoy last night
i VIII overlook what they have said
and done. 1t is my work TO help such
men. My desire for an investigation is
not due to resentment of their behavior
but is solely for the purpose of eonvinc-
ms those who have aided me in my work
that those silly accusations were ground
less.
Some of the men who accused me
are still eating at the soup kitchen. They
Will be welcome there as long as it is
necessary to keep the kitchen open.
Conditions are steadily improving and
it is probable that the soup kitchen will
IN a short time be no longer needed"

On Mark Twain's SeVenty-second
birthday, a Hartford clergyman said of
him:
mo wonder he finds happiness in old
age. All the aged would be happy if
they were as sympathetic and as kind
as he. He is continually going out of
his way to please others, and the re-
suit is that he is continually pleasing
himself.
Listen, for instance, to the quaint
compliment he paid me the last time he
came to hear me preach. He waited
for me at the church door at the ser
vices end and, shaking me by the hand,
said gravely:
I mean no Offense, but feel obliged
to tell you that the preaching this
morning has been of a kind that l can
spare. l go to church, sir to pursue
my own train of thought. But today |
couldn't do it. You interfered with me-
You forced me to attend to you, and
lost me full half hour. 1 beg that this
