AMERICANS
LOOK WINNERS
INTERNATIONAL POLO MATCH Is
BETWEEN HURLINGHAM AND
MEADOW BROOK TEAMS.

LONDON, June 22.-The day before
the beginning of the International polo
match for the American cup between
the Hurlingham team and the Meadow
Brook team, Representing the, AmerI.
can Polo Association, finds the Amer.
leans confident of victory and in juhl.
liant spirits. The first match will tale
place tomorrow. the second on sa.ur.
day AMI the third, IL third should be
necessary, on June 80.
The detection of Walter Buclmas.
ter, acknowledged to be the best polo
player in the British Isles. who has
declined to play tomorrow, has sent a
cold chill lown the spine of the Brit
ish polo world. already scared by the
remarkable work done by the Meadow
Brook players IN the practice matches.
It is explained officially that Mr..
Buckmaster. who is a member OF tle
stock exchange. bases his refusal on
the ground that his present activities
on the exchange make it impossible
for him to devote sufficient time for
practice. but those behlnl the scenes
attribute his action to resentment a.
the tardiness of the Selection Commit
tee in asking him to play.
1t is considered that Americas
chances are better than ever before.
England IN 1902 won chiefly because
of the superiority of her ponies. The
American ponies were equally fast and
clever. bnt they did not stay so well as
the British snimals. The Americans
have since imported English ponies to
the United States, and half of those
used in the coming matches win be
English bred.
The American Polo Cup has been
held by the British Club since 1886.

ciously that she would play "a Cha
minade," and proceeded to do So At
the close Of it there was applause.
Then an unsuspecting low-brow piped
up:
by the way, what is Chaminade?"
He spoke as If not sure whether the
thing was more like a channels or a
serenade.
The young lady looked at him with
eringly.
"Chaminade is a composer" she said
with much severity. That embarrassed
the low-brow.

brow. We'll, what did he write?"

At this point friends of the low-brow
stepped in and restrained him from

Indeed, think that most grown men

pacity Of being pleased, which are also
an inheritance they have preserved

sesaulls Of Auchmithl..

In the fishing village Of Auchmithie
you may frequently witness seagulls
flying into the houses Of the fishermen
and partaking of food from their
hands. One of these sea birds was in
the habit of staying in fisherman's
house all the year round except at the
breeding season, when it left. About
fortnight ago, while the gull was
away, the fisherman removed his home
some 3h miles from the former place.
The fisherman never expected to see
his old friend the gull again. 1t was
therefore much to his establishment
that he beheld on recent Sunday the
sea bird come walking into his new
residence with stately steps to resume
his old familiarities and household
ways.-London Spectator.

AspEnsIoN ON THE SECRETARY.
Serious Auditor Misinterpreted the vi

Charles J. Bonaparte, attorney gen.
eral of the United States, was presid-
ing at a meeting Of the civic reform
league In New York, May, 1905, where
sequence Of long, dull papers were
presented. Between papers Mr.. Bona
parte would arouse the faded interest
of the audience with humorous refer
ences and jokes. Each was punctuat-
ed with vivacity Of manner that in
dicated his French ancestry.
But-and here hangs the story
there was one in the audience to whom
Mr.. Bonaparte's name and work were
unknown, who contemplated these
mannerisms with growing disapprov-
al. He was serious minded, be-spec-
tacled man, tall and spare, with a
vagrant wisp Of gray hair rising from
a much rubbed and wrinkled forehead,
and WHO seemed deeply interested in
the overly dull papers until Mr.. Bona
parte began to enliven the dullness,
when his whole attention was directed
to the distinguished cabinet officer. He
glanced at his program and then back
to MI. Bonaparte, and finally turning
to his neighbor, asked: who is the
presiding off1cer?"
"Ah! Bonaparte," said he reflective
ly upon being informed, and, after fur

Lluht and Pain.

Light is good for toothache," said
the doctor. Darkness is bad for It.
If you are toothache sufferer, haven't
you often noticed how the pain in your
jaw increases when, late at night, you
turn off the lamp and try to sleep?
Light, you see, is good for the tooth
ache--There are a number Of diseases
it is good for-asthnla, cold in the
head, earache. These diseases in the
dark all grow worse.
Darkness Is good for sick head
ache and for neuralgia and for nau-

and darkness-they are remedies

WAY or CHEATING TELEPHONE.
How Lone-Distance Line Was
Worked for q Free Message.

1t has just been discovered that a
new kind of free toll service graft has
been worked on the telephone COM
panies of Lansing, Mich. A few days
ago the travelling representative of a
business concern located in a distant
city came into town, canvassed the
trade industriously and landed several
orders of good size.
After his days work was done he
went to the telephone and asked To-:
long distance" After the usual pre-
liminaries he called for his brother in
the distant city. The brother could
not be located.
Well, then, perhaps the operator
could get his sister. No, his sister
also was out. He was sorry, but would
call again later and left the booth
without having to pay toll, Of course,
as he did not get his party.
The next day he departed for pas
lures new, and the telephone company
was none the wiser. But the house
had received correct report Of the
business done by the drummer that
day, and the toll was saved for him
self or the house. The brothers
name stood for the amount Of his sales
and the sisters for the character Of
the order. - American Telephone

Cold Storage Rats.

The attendant came out of the cold
storage room with an awed look.
Rats are wonderful" he said. I'VE
thought modern plumbing would abol-
ish them, but they live in the clean
light and dryness of the best modern
plumbing more comfortably than they
did in the damp and filth and darkness
of the past. We thought the modern
ship would abolish them, but the LUIS
itania has as many rats as had the
Columbus carayels. And here" :
He made an awed gesture.
And here 1 find rats in our cold
storage rooms at temperatures that
freeze the breath and cause it to fall
in the form of snow. To and fro they
prowl, their coats are thick and warm
like fur, and with frost on their whis-
kers they feed heartily on meat and
game frozen to rocklike hardness"
