BARRIERS and Surgeons.

John LIE Barbour was the first mas
ter of the Honorable Company of Bar
bers six centuries ago. At one time
the BARRIERS and the surgeons preyed
upon the public in loving brotherhood
and settled their family quarrels un-
der the roof of one hall. By an agree
able arrangement the community was
to be ''bled" on a system which for
bade the surgeon to cut hair, shampoo
or shave and required the barber to
proceed no further in the art Of heal
ing than the extraction of teeth and
"cupping." But as the surgeons grew
in the social scale they sighed for re-
lief from their lowlier brethren and
built hall and formed guild of their
own, magnanimously handing over the
joint home in Monkwell street to the
barbers.-London Standard.

HEARST PAPERS WIN SUIT
Complaint of John D. Rockefeller, Dr..
LACKING in Proof

Complaint of John D. Rockefeller, Dr..
Lacking in Proof.
At New York, the writ of habeaS
corpus secured in behalf of S. S. Car
valhO, Bradford Merrill and Edward H
Clark, officers of the Star company
publishers of Hearts Evening Journal
in the action brought against them for
criminal libel on complaint of John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., was upheld by Justice
Gerard in the supreme court and the
defendants ordered discharged.
Rockefeller had complained of the
publication of an article wrongly &C
cusing him of having originated "a
peonage system to which the employees
of a certain breakfast food company
in Illinois were alleged to have been
subjected.
In his opinion Justice Gerard char
acteriZes the articles as a gross and
vicious libel, the writer's and publish
ers of which should be brought to trial
but finds that no evidence exists tc
show that Carvalho, Merrill and Clark
had anything whatever to do with its
writing or publication.

The Yorkshireman.

There is a characteristic glimpse or
Yorkshire ''downrightness' in the pub
lished "reminiscences of an English
clergyman:
At my institution to Upham re-
tired colonial bishop, about to take an
English benefice, said: "Well. you and
have worked both in north and
south. In what points do you consider
that they differ" ''Oh, my lord"
answered, II can soon tell you that.
If Yorkshireman thinks you a fool
he comes and tells you so to your face.
Down here they so and tell somebody
else" "You have exactly hit it." said
the bishop. THE difference could not
be better described"
Yorkshire regard for the pocket the
aforesaid clergyman illustrates in this
anecdote:
A groom being asked how long he
lived in the south replied, Twenty
years. "What. Have you, a York
shireman. lived twenty years down
here and not made your fortune?'
"Eh," answered the man, ''but meas
Their were Yorkshire too"
