The WhirIina Dervishes.

Those spirits on the hunt for "sensa-
lions" In Constantinople will wish to
satake In" the dervishes. The Wh1rl1ng
clan have a convenient convent on the
Grand Rue, where their circumnaviga-
lions may be witnessed at 7:SO o'clock
on Friday evening for the admission OF
10 cents. This weird performance per-
sonifies the solar system and Is exactly
ordered In all its phases. After pre-
liminary circuits Of the ring in single
file to the discordant accompaniment
Of flute and tambourine the robed and
turbaned dervishes commence their
turning. With arms outsretched, the
right palm upward to beseech bless
ings, the left depressed to signify mer-
cy bestowed, the head is bent upon the
right shoulder. The rapid revolving
upon the right heel is effected by en-
ploying the left toes as motive power
As the circling accelerates, the long
white skirts dilate until they stand out
stiff after the manner Of the attenuated
garment Of the premiere danseuse.
Very little space is allotted to each
priest, and it seems strange that there
are no collisions. The dance ceases IN
an hour or so with the men exhausted.

Some Good Paragraphs.

The best club for married man is
an armchair in front of big fire
place at home.
The story is told Of a minister who
looked down from the pulpit and
wondered how the people could dress
so well. Then, after he had passed
the contribution box, he declared the
mystery solved.
A Georgia exchange has discovered
the meanest man in the United
States. It is said that he pumped
water on his head, let his hair freeze,
and then broke it off, rather than
pay barber for cutting it.
A newspaper publisher at Yelling
ton, Kans., says husband at that
place fingered so long at deaths door
that the wife was led to say that she
supposed he was having his usual
trouble finding the key hole.
An editor of an iowa paper recent
" stated that he had been kissed by
one of the most beautiful married
women in the town. He promised
to tell her name in the first issue OF
his paper next month. In two weeks
the circulation of his newspaper
doubled. But when he gave the
name of his wife he had to leave
town.

Bows Use Of Barometers.

Every English schoolboy who can
afford it has barometer that he
keeps hidden under his bed or in his
trunk, for in all English schools ba-
rometers are strictly forbidden to the
pupils. Why should they be forbid
den? Why should they be desired?
Through the autumn and winter the
English schoolboy plays football every
afternoon, weather permitting. He
must play two hours each clear day.
These two hours are taken off his rec
itations. They make his school tasks
two hours lighter; hence when ne
knows beforehand that the next day
will be clear he may spare himself
two hours Of useless study the night
before. His barometer pointing to
zine" saves him lot Of toll. But
when the instrument points to
"change" then the schoolboy knows
that there will be no football. Thus
a boy with a barometer has q big ad-
vantage. He often sells weather pre-
dictions at a penny apiece.-Philadel-

pany with Henry Moore, his rival, as

turning from church with party of
ladies', appeared on the scene and
took their sisters escorts part,
whereupon Finley drew his revolver
and killed one of them outright ana

He Knew Her.

The conductor looked at the thin
man.
"Do you see that stout woman at the
other end of the car. the one with the
monkey hat?" he asked
IT think see the one you mean," the
thin man responded.
There, she's looking this way" said
the conductor. "Well, sir, l admire
that woman"
''You do?' 81
Eyes, l do. She may have a squint
and wear bad fitting clothes and big
shoes, yet admire her."
"WhyT
"She knows how to get of car the

PROHIBITION A LIVE ISSUE.
Several Senators Taking Great Inter-
est In the Question.

A special from Washington says:
Prohibition has become one OF the
livest questions before the senate Of
the United States in consequence OF
the eanestness Of Senator Iillman
and others representing prohibition
and local option states, and in the
next few days the fight to determine
Just how far the States may go IN the
control of interstate shipments OF
liquor sent into their borders will
come squarely before the senate:
Senator Clay, Of Georgia, who is
backing Senator Tillman, and who is
anxious to get the senate judiciary
commission to make report on this
proposed legislation, will try to force
a yea and nay vote in the senate to-
morrow. He will insist that senators
90 on record on this matter. He with
other senators does not like the SOM
nolence displayed by the committee
with reference to this subject. For
session after session bills dealing with
state control of inter state shipments
of liquor have been before the com,
mittee, but they have been allowed
to lie there without being reported
upon. SRI,
Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, who has
been urging legislation dealing with
the same problem, yesterday intro
duced the Dolliver-Hepburn bill in the
senate. This bill is intended to meet
the same conditions against which
Senators Clay, Tillman and others
from states that have prohibition laws
are protesting. :.
The resolution of Senator Clay dl-
rects the judiciary committe to re-
port at earliest convenience a bill pro-
yiding that all intoxicating liquors
transported into any state or terri
tory, or remaining therein for use,
shall upon arrival within the borders
of such state before or after deliver,
ery to the consignee be subject to all
the laws enacted by the state in the
exercise of it's police powers to the
same extent as if the liquors mad been
produced within the state.
The resolution also directs the COM
mission to report whether congress
has the constitutional right to pass a
bill prohibiting the transportation
of LIQUORS from states, counties, or
municipalities where such liquors are
sold into places where local option
or prohibition prevails. In addition tc
this it is probable that Senator Till
man may make another speech at an
early date attacking the railroads ano
express companies for violating the
law.
