What is there to say of a vast city
where all the a~rchitectures of the
world and some that We're never seen
(anywhere else) on land or sea rub
shoulders together? Would you not
think that they would refuse to speak
to each other, wen if they didn't fight
in disastrous battle dreadful to wit
ness? But go to New York and see.
| said-to myself as I drove about
New York that the gay. colorful city
was like a huge flow garden where
the gardener had sown bis seeds any
how-crimson hollyhocks, golden sun
flowers, dainty pinks. modest violets,
tall white lilies, larkspurs, pansies and
a thousand other early things heller

CHINESE METHODS.
Why a Street, Newly Paved, Was Torn
Up by Official Order.

Up by Official Order.
NJ. Monnier. the French Asiatic
traveller, youched for the truth of the
following story of how his friend,
Hop Sing, a man of means and re-
fnement, al on one occasion sorely
victimized. Hop Sing lived in the
street of the roasted corn, us IN
savory and as i'll paved a street as
any in all Pekin. The local maJlda-
rim was an intimate friend of his, and
Hop Sing awaited himself of this
have the street repaved. Certainly,
ut once. The men would be at work
Oh it before Hop Sing could get back
home. "A week passed. then another
visit, and SO on until, in despair, Hop
Sing determined to have the street re-
paired at his w expense. The work
was satisfactorily completed.
The surprise of Hop Sing was only
equaled by his indignation when on
awakening N morning he found a
gang of coolies %upheaying the newly
tagged street. His surprise grew
when he heard from the mandarin's
own lips that the men were there at
his orders.
sYou see, my dear friend said the
mandarin, q am expecting the head
inspector around here in a few days.
Now. if he were to see the beautiful
pavement you have laid down in your
street he would come to the conclu-
sion that there was money about, and
he would assuredly bleed every vein
in my body. This would mean my
ruin. Don't you see why your pave
ment really must come up? 1t cost me
n fortune to ecure my post. I don't
want to spend another in keeping It,"

One Romance OF Uncle Sans Dead
Letter Office.

Letter Oftlce.
Something like 100000 letters an
nually fail of delivery in the United
States owing to insufficient postage or
incorrect addresses. The dead letter
office at Washington employs A large
force OF clerks to handle these. The
packages that have been received at
the dead letter Office have contained
false teeth, glass eyes, brass keys and
thousands of other things that one
would never expect to find in the
mails.
1t would be interesting to know how
many engagements have been broken,
how many friends have been estrang-
ed, how many fond hearts have not
been reunited, how many deals have
fallen through, how much o has
lost and how many quarrels have
been prevented by letters that never
came.
a pretty romance was revealed at
the dead letter Office the other day
when a young called there to
see if a wrongfully addressed letter
had been received. 1t had. and she
was greatly relieved. 81 heard that
Jack was untrue" she said, s'and
him breaking our engagement.
The day after | wrote I found out that
I was wrong. Ally heart was almost
broken, but Jack kept right on coming
see me and never mentioned the let
ter. began to think I must have
misdirected it and find that I did. 1t
must have been fate. Now he win
never know."-st. Paul Pioneer Press.

DEATH OF E. II. HARTMAN
AND ITS INFLUENCE.

The sudden closing of the career OF
Edward II. Hartman is received
throughout the United States as tho
most tremendously important death
Of that Of any private citizen In the
history Of this country. The railroad
king controlled $4,000 miles of rail-
road, entering nearly every state Of
the Union, and his interests were so
vast and so closely interwoven with
the Industrial welfare of all communi-
Ties that the question was asked from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, What ef-
feet Will his death have on bustness?"
Wall Street has asked and answered
thet question. Harriman's interests
were so we'll organized and the final
dissolution was so thoroughly antcl-
pated by the financial associates of the
railroad magnate that the crisis

return from Europe when, calling the
brokers' together. he said the truth
might as well be known, that Har-
imam is a dying man; that his busi-
ness had ocen placed in order so that
when the final summons came the
ponderous railroad machine would con-
