emphatically. They ought to be held

day, and followed by the most surprising
good fortune. Other boats were wrecked
in storms that she went through without
the least trouble, and other boats would
strike on rocks along the dangerous coast
OF Maine that the Katahdin always
lodged. She never lost passenger or
any freight, and, in short, such was. her
luck that people, especially sailor men,
came to regard her as bearing a charmed
existence. She continued to run between
Boston and Bangor until the summer OF
1888, when the new steamer City OF Bun

The Cambridge, which was the fastest
and most elegantly finished steamer that
ever came to Bangor, was lost on Old Man
Ledge, on February 10, 1886. She was

OF bad luck, having been ashore several
times, and once when she was brand new,
narrowly escaped loss, with all hands.

Sure Enough Tale.

In a certain private school there is a
small boy who is always cheerfully
miles behind everybody else. He is
not a dull boy. but learning does not
appeal to him as being q thing espe-
cially to be desired. Recently the
teacher told the class in composition
that on the next day she would expect
each of them to be able to write a
short anecdote. She explained with
great care the meaning of the word
anecdote. and next day when she called
the class up to write all but the lag
gard went at once to work.
"Why don't you write an anecdote,
Rob?" asked the teacher.
81 forgot what an anecdote is" said
Rob, undisturbed.
Il explained to you yesterday, Rob,
and you ought to remember" said the
teacher, bit out of patience. IAN
anecdote Is a tale. Now write"
Rob bent over his slate and. with
much twisting of brow and writhing
of lip, ground out his task. When the
states were collected his was at the
cry top of the heap. The teacher
picked it up. and this is what she read:
yesterday we had soup made from
the anecdote Of an ox."-London Mall.

THREE MONTHS OF TAFT.
Some Things Which Have Been Done
Some Which Have Not.
Washington Cor. New York Herald !,

washington Cor. New York HerGLd.)
Three months Of Mr.. Taft in the White
House! What is the state OF the country?
Here in Washington, where the course
that Mr.. Taft is pursuing is being con-
stantly viewed with reference to it's rela-
tion to domestic business conditions, the
impression is strong that modern
worker of magic has been busy to bring
about a business boom during the revision
OF the tariff, undertaking low level depres-
sion following panic. Administrations
are held responsible for panics. Why
should they not be given credit for pros
perity? That is the argument.
Tumult has been transferred fron the
White House to the Senate. When men
are called liars it happens now under
the dome OF the capitol. Mr.. Taft has
been in the office ninety four days. There
have been but three messages to Con-
gress, making recommendations. One, of
$40 words, related to the tariff; another
related to the failure of lf-government
in Porto Rico; another related to the sue
cess OF self-government in Cuba.
There have been no prosecutions insti-
tuted against corporations with brass
band, but that doesn't mean that no pros
ecutions will be begun later with dignity
and sobriety. There have been no alter
cations with nature takers, rifle manufac-
turers or photographers. There has been
but one inspired statement as to what the
President wanted Congress to do, and the
Neoraskan who put it forth was placed
under the aid" and the lid was sat upon.
