that $500, 900 in gold, would follow by
the next steamer. He carried letter
of introduction from E. I, du Pont de

Co. of London Going among the salt
peter brokers, du Pont bought their
entire supply, and liz a few days the
sa1tpeter was being rapidly delivered.
The purchase was to be for cash, but
the next steamer failed to bring the
gold The brokers, seeing the price Of
saltpeter rising as the supply decreas-
ed. besieged him for money, thinking
that in the event of his failure to
make payment they could cancel the
orders and resell at an advanced price.
La Motto du Pont appealed to Brown,
Shipley & Co. who informed him that
they had not so large an amount of
cash on hand. They, however. referred
him to Peabody & Co, and forwith
he called on that firm of bankers. but

A year ago a Japanese and his wife

Forgot His Pants.

Boston Herald: A short memory and
bobtail looking glass have proved a
dangerous combination for John Sharp
Williams, h House democratic leader.
Some time ago. according to the story.
Mr.. Williams, who is blessed at inter-
walls of mental ~Dreoccupation with alb
sent mindedness. was invited to attend
a social function. After mature delib-
GRAFTON he decided to attend. but when
the night arrived remained peacefully
at home and did not remember his en-
gagement until the next day. Then
Senator Culberson invited him to dine.
Mr.. Williams accepted but forgot to
go. Finally Senator Carmack in
vited him to a reception. and the demo-
cratic champion determined to attend
without fail. All the members of the
family were admonished to keep him
informed as to the date, and on the
evening of the event his son reminded
him. Mr.. Williams went to his room
to dress. He stood before one of those
short mirrors. over a little bureau, and
made his toilet with elaborate care. He
adjusted his tie and brushed his hair
and started down stairs.
Then his youngest son piped up: "Oh.
daddy. you forgot to put on your
pants
And SO he had. He dressed as much
of himself as he could see in the bob
tail looking glass and forgot about the
rest.
