Too 1alkativ0.

The following story is told OF the
famous painter Makart: The artist
was a very passionate chess player.
but he did not like bis adversary to
utter single word during the prog
ress of game. A stranger who was
very anxious to get on intimate terms
with the famous artist thought to be
able to achieve his object by means Of
the royal game. After many tries he
succeeded at last in getting an intro
duction to Makart, and one day the
latter consented to play game with
him. Being we'll aware of the fact
that his adversary was very much
averse to any talk during the game.
not a word was spoken. and even the
word "check" was never spoken. All
the stranger dared to do was to touch
his adversary's king when he put that
piece in check. The game ended In
Makart being mated. when the stran.
ger quietly said 'checkmate." Makart
rose very excitedly. threw the pieces
off the board and. giving his opponent
a fierce look, got of his chair, turned
bis back to the stranger and exclaimed
"Prattler!

subterran mean and demoniac Influences
is to be traced the making of offerings
to Mang women on Dasera day and
the sinister fact that there are few
great buildings erected in pre-British
days in this part Of India that have
not-whether they be temples or forts
or -Mang victims built into
their foundations.
1.-THE peculiar place that these popu-
lar superstitions have given to the
Mang community is seen especially in
the ceremonies that are sometimes per-
formed for the removal Of disease.
Frequently when some one has fallen
Ill JOSH Is consulted and explains
the illness as due to the influence Of
some evil spirit. The one effective pre-
scription in such case is to call a
Mang and give him dinner. This is
not by any means an act of friendli-
ness toward despised community, but
has as its object apparently the pro-
pitiation Of the demoniac power and
the removal of the source Of the dis
ease from the sick man to its proper
habitation.
with this end in view practices of
sympathetic magic, which can be par
alleled in the folk lore Of many peo-
pies. are employed. Portions of the
finger nails or. it may be, fragments Of
hair Of the invalid are secretly mixed
with the food to be given to the Mang,
and before the sugar water Of which
he is to partake is given to him the
sick man must see his face in it. In
this way the evil is supposed to be
passed back to where it properly be.

It was the privilege Of the writer
years ago to attend a reception at
which Joseph Jefferson spoke on the
drama. His treatment Of the subject
was interesting. the utterance of a
man who knew the art Of which he
spoke. But the most interesting part
Of the hour came after the completion
Of the formal address, when an oppor-
tunity was given to the audience to
ask any questions they wished Of Mr..
Jefferson. Soon the familiar topic was
Introduced, the effect of the modern
elaboration and realism in stage set
ting. Mr.. Jefferson at once rose to the
question. He spoke somewhat rapidly,
with quaint humor and sympathetic
charm that were Irresistible. He char
acterized the modern fashion Of stage
setting as "a tribute to the weakness
Of the human imagination" II am Of

Dr. Wilson was playing golf AT
Princeton when he got a flash. He
had no time to waste at the outdoor
game when he found he had beaten
the Colonel Bogey of the indoor game.
The convention was shouting for him,
and Princeton was only twelve miles
general lit out for his army. and his
automobile made some speed on the
good, hard road.
He dropped in on the shouters like
a neighbor making a social call. You
saw his smile before you noticed his
gray felt hat or the dark suit he
wore.
He gave the delegates two or three
minutes TO open up the enthusiasm
valves and then he made them a half
hour speech, sober, clearly put eX-
position of his views on what he
termed the three main issues-reor-
ganlZation and economy in admins
tration, the equalization of taxation
and the control of corporations. Half

1t appeared to an onlooker as if
the rancor that had been developed
by the incessant squabbles of ballot
ing had been melted by the doctor's
smile, and that the delegates meant
what they said when they promised
him undivided support. The conven-
ton wasn't a Bible class gathering by
any means. New Jersey conventions
seldom are. But this year they didn't
bang each other over the head with
chairs.

The Chesapeake and Ohio and the Nor

summoned 10 appear before the State
Corporation Commission to make re-
ply to allegations regarding their
charges and methods of discriminating
against the general public.
The Chesapeake and Ohio owns the
Strathmore, on the James River d.
vision, to Lindsay, on the main line,
near Gordonsville. The length of the
branch line is thirty miles. The Flu
wanna County Farmers Institute says
that the road discriminates against
shippers along its line; that the branch
is a part of the stem of the main line.
rates charged are excessive and un-
fair. The farmers have filed the rates
paid to the company, in which the al

rates are in force.

HER DAINTY HOSE
WON THE ELECTION

GULFPORT, MISS.-Special.- Miss
Mary Jane Brunson, a winsome bru-
nette of twenty summers, is credited
with having caused the election of
Patrick Harrison to- Congress from
the Sixth Congressional District of
Mississippi over j. r. Tally by 1899
votes in the second primary.
Her success in a campaign lasting
three months has attracted the atten-
ton of w. A Dickson, candidate for
Congress in the Seventh District. who
is opposed by Thomas Shelton. This
primary will be decided September 21.
Miss Brunson therefore has gone to
Brookhaven, and is to receive a fee
of So 900 If Dickson wins.
The chief assets of Miss Brunson
in the Harrison campaign were open
work hosiery and gauze-like shirt
waists. When she appeared before
an audience in her bewitching and
cool summer garb the Tally men had
to succumb. Then, too, she had a line
of argument against trusts, combines
high tariff and scandals in mighty cir
cles that was hard to get around.
