Where Parliament Failed.

According to all accounts, the Cam
eron highlanders militia are a fine
body of men physically. Not long ago
four of them occupied the least crowd
ed seat in full compartment on a
Scotland railway. Just as the train
was moving off diminutive little cler-
gyman jumped into the compartment
and tried to edge himself in between
two of the highlanders. Not finding
it very comfortable, he turned to the
one on his right and said: "Sit up,
please. You know that, according to
act of parliament, the seat holds FIVE"
The highlander looked at him for a
moment and then replied: ''That may
be a. RIGHT enough for your kind, sir,
but shairly We Gamma blame me for no
bein constructed according to act of
parliament!'

Paris Under the Rule of the Third
NAPOLEON.

Never was there so pleasure loving
and SO easy going a court, and seldom
has there been one which was eXter-
nally so splendid The emperor spent
money like water and thereby produc-
ed a prosperity for the time and with
it popularity for the government.
Hundreds of millions were lavished
upon Paris, much of it being wasted,
vet none the less with the result that
the city really deserved it's title la
vile lumiere. In these days 1t has
gone to seed and grown shabby, but in
1869 everything seemed fresh and
new and brilliant and imposing. The
army was rotten to the core. Yet the
emperor's cent gardes were splendid
soldiers to the eye. Society was no
less demoralized, yet its gayety was
exhilarating. These were the days
when it was said that good Americans
when they die go to Paris. The en-
peror conferred distinction by recog-
nizing any foreigner. The empress set
the fashions for the world. 1t was all
a sham, but it was thoroughly mag
nificent in it's way. 1t can best be
understood at present by reading 10
las early novels, by recalling some
chapters Of Daudet's lie Nabab" and
by remembering Jacques Offenbach
whose opera bouffe was the most char
acteristic production Of an empire
which itself was bouffe. That shall
low and yet catchy music was a tona
sneer. Every librefto was a mock al
the old time virtues Of chastity ant
honor and courage.-Harry Thurstor

plodded toward her home with her
arms full of Christmas green's came
the fairy king at last. She heard the
Jingle of his sleighbells behind her,
and he~ heart beat a little faster,
sleighbells being in their very nature
full of potential pleasure and excite
ment Not for worlds would she have
looked round, but she felt no real sur
prise when the sound Of the bells
slackened beside her and deep mas
culine voice asked her to ride.
Forty years may be a long time to
wait, but if one is not conscious Of
waiting then the thing is as if it
might have happened at any moment.
She looked up now, her cheeks deep
ening in color, and replied with
quick fiutter of embarrassment in her
voice, the embarrassment of one not
much used to speaking with strangers,
but without distrust or hesitation.
Then she saw it was not a stranger,
although they had never spoken to
each other before

u full of creeping pine. Her
eyes were bright and her
fheeks red under the white knitted
hood she wore, and flecks of snow lay
On her coat, shaken from the branches
with which she had been battling to
gain the road. She looked left and
right along the empty, snowy road
ere she stopped to gather up heap of
holly branches that she had previously
laid there. She was looking for the
fairy king, out a-hunting, to come rid
Ing by.
In spite Of her forty years Miss
Christina had never given up the
child's attitude of elastic expectation
toward life. Her solitary rambles in
the wood were enlivened still by the
possibility (all unrecOgnized, yet ever

boy from the other house, who brought

This state of affairs was owing
chiefly to the folks in the other house.
No one in the village felt that Miss
Christina needed any especial thought,
with the other house so near-just

fence between-and. although practi-
rally every one understood that its in

at sea and his widow had married
again, ten years now, there had seem

Yet Miss Christina never thought OF
moving away from her home any more

SPORTS
HIT.AND-RUN PLAY
In BALL GAME
Scientific Combination Scored
Many Runs During Past
Season.

One OF the most effective plays that
( has wedged It's way into the exclusive
circles OF baseball Is the hit and run
play.
As a rule this performance is ne.
eotiated when, with runner on the
paths, a pitcher gets himself into a
hole by giving the batter three and
two.
Invariably the only exception being
when a good pinch hitter, such as
Hans Wagner Of Pittsburg. Is at the
bat and with runners on, the safest
move is to give the big fellow a free
ticket and keep his enlarged stick In
active, n twirler will do his best to
slip the next ball across the pan.
Then it Is up to the batter To con-
meet, for as the mound worker makes
the slightest movement toward the
plate q part of his motion the runner
digs his spikes and is of for other
and more fruitful regions,
The high sign for this play Is gen.
orally wigwagged when runner is
on first and the batter has three balls
on him. Then IL the next Offering is
wide of the batter there is no chance
of tossing out the runner at second,
for he is advanced on the four balls.
II the delivery Is over the plate con-
nection by the batter probably means
something doing.
AS in all other sports, the .fundameD-
tai principle of defense is TO break
up effective plays of this caliber. Ever
since the hit-and-run play broke into
the confines OF baseball much has
been offered in the form OF a remedy.
But the play Is still worked effective.

With a man on first II Is hard for

TO determine whether the runner is
attempting to pilfer the second pillow
or whether the signal for the hit-and-
run play has been passed. That's
where the hitch comes in, and 1t Is
Just this element of uncertainty that
has made the play a success.
