4 Lithuanian Funeral,

On Sunday morning a strange funer- al cortege passed through the Mission streets. The hearse was followed by procession of women walking in the middle of the street They wore dark skirts trimmed with bands of lace, embroidery, or colored strips, and all wore aprons. some of black silk or cloth. but more of sheer white en- broidered corners. and fringed shawls were over their shoulders It was not a uniform. but more in the nature of holiday attire such as one sees In Italy and France on carnival occasions or fete days. The men in the process sion wore conventional dress, but their bearded faces were not American. h. quiring as to the nationality of these odd figures who made such a strange picture in San Francisco, found they were Lithuanians, and that there is a large colony of them here, mostly em- ployed at a laundry over toward the Potrero.

Driving a Good saruain.

The barbers small son was in the habit of playing around his fathers shop, and he was always keenly in terested in the patrons Many a stray penny found it's way into the little chubby hand, and sticks of gum were dropped in quite as though by accident Judge Williams drifted into the shop the other afternoon for a hair cut. The lad recognized the fact that the judge was a new patron, and so was more than ordinarily inter. ested in him. He hung at the foot of the chair and looked musingly at the judges bald head Then he walked slowly to the back of the chair and surveyed the scanty fringe of hair from that point of vantage. He could contain himself no longer and burst out incredulously: Father do-you-get quarter for cutting haty"-Lippincott's.

HERE'S IDEAL MODEL CITIZEN.
The Coming Man as Seen by Admir-
 CTS of Socialism.

To describe an ideal modern citi- zen now Is at best to make guess and . suggestion as to what must be built in reality by the efforts of thousand minds But he will be very different creature from that in. different, well-behaved business man who passes for good citizen to-day. He will be neither under the slave tradition nor a rebel, nor a vehement elemental man. Essentially he will be aristocratic; arstocratic not in the sense that he has slaves or class in- feriors, because probably he will have nothing of the sort, but aristocrauc In the sense that he will feel that the state belongs to him and he to the state. He will probably be public servant; at any rate he will be a man doing some work in the complicated machinery of the modern community for salary and not for speculative gain, Typically he will be a profes sional man. l do not think the ideal modern citizen can be person living chiefly by buying for as little as he can give and selling for as much as he can get; indeed, most of what we idolize as business enterprise, I think he will regard with very considerable contempt. But then l am Socialist and look forward to the time when the economic machinery of the commu- nifty will not be field for private en- richment but for public service.- Everybody's Magazine

breaking into the home of Fred Fol

Folger when the latter surprised the
intruder in his kitchen. The defense
placed on the stand alienists who tes-
