the tens, scores and hundreds they lin
ed up to be introduced and shake
hands Mrs. DuQue positively declined
to speak to him or shake hands She
said she looked on him as a despot and
a rohber. in that he had stolen Panama
away from Colombia in the most high

now that he was snubbed.

AN UNDESIRABLE ELEMENT

American soldiers of fortune" who
have everything to gain and nothing
to lose, are no longer welcome to Mic
aragua. For years American adven-
turers have been going to the Isthmian
and South American countries of turb-
ulent habits and enlisting to fight on
whichever side offered the best prom
ise Of success and advancement in a
pecuniary way. The trouble with these
people-some of them quite valuable
fighters-has always been the difficulty
of keeping them bought. They have
often been willing TO sell out to the
highest bidder on the very slightest
notice or with no notice at all. The
government or the insurrectionists, as
the case might be, could never tell over
night where their American supporters
would be the next morning. Adventur-
ers Of that class have made a lot of
trouble for this government. as well as
for the government they were fighting
to uphold or overthrow, according to
which offered the best pay. Gen. Es-
trada Of Nicaragua has issued a procla-
nation saying that such people are I'M
desirable characters and barring them
out of his jurisdiction. Practically a
shipload Of them were sent away from

THE TWO NEW STARS
WILL SHINE RATHER DIMLY

Congress, at the present session, says
the Savannah News, has opened the
way for adding two new states to the
Union. President Taft has signed their
enabling acts. It is not expected, how
ever, that they will adopt their consti-
tutions and get into the Union before
1912.
The two administrations and
New Mexico-have been wanting to be
states for a good many years-at least
they are the homes of ambitious poh
ticians who have wanted to be sena-
tors, representatives, judges, district
attorneys and marshals. Their appli-
cations for statehood have been turned
down time and again, mainly because
OF their lack Of population, though it
has been frequently said that their ad-
mission would be to the advantage Of
the democratic party. 1t is doubtful IL
that party will be benefited much, if
any, more than the republican party.
At the census OF 100 Arizona had a
population of $4,000, which she says
has increased to 10000. In 1900 New
Mexico had a population of $4,000,
and 1T Is now estimated that she has
$4,000. 1t Is pretty certain that the
census this year will show their esti-
mates TO De TOO n1gh. Ihey are much
better of from the standpoint of wealth
than of population. A federal estimate
made five years ago places Arizona's
wealth at $306 100000, and New Mex
ico's $4,000, 900. 1t doesn't look now as
II either would be a great state thoush
Arizona has 5000 square miles or ter
ritory and New Mexico about $4,000
Either Of them is twice the size of
Georgia, but they have so much poor
land that their size doesn't count for
much. They would be much better off
II they had less territory and more
good soil. However. their soils and
climates may eventually be found to be
we'll adapted to certain kinds Of fruits,
and their light lands, if irrigated, may
prove to be very productive. The peo-
pie Of both Arizona and New Mexico
appear to think that they live in the
most desirable spot of the world. If
they can make other people think So
people worth having as citizens-then
states may eventually become import
ant ones. At present, however, these
states don't appear to appeal strongly
to either investors hOmeseekers.
Over their constitutions there promises
to be as interesting contests as was the
one in Oklahoma.

who attended school in an English pro-
vincial town, found himself, by reason
Of the fact that he was the only repre-
resentative of his nation there, made
the subject Of much chaff on the part
of his British cousins, says Harper S
Weekly. The young fellow, however,
took the guying with such good nature
that despite the number of his tormen-
tors. he generally managed to come OFF
with flying colors.
On one occasion, at an evening gath
ering. the Westerner wore upon his
coat lapel pin in the form Of a tiny
American flag. Several of his friends
pretended not to recognize the Stars
and Stripes, and one Of them, a young
woman, affecting a most supercillious
air. gazed at the emblem and said:
You belong to some secret society
or organization, I see."
"Oh, yes" cheerfully assented the

"MISTER" OR "EsQUIRE,

The words ESQUIRE and mister
are among those in daily use, says
Harper's Weekly, and yet most of us
would be rather puzzled to say in pre-
else language what we meant by them.
In q recent county court case in Eng
land q schoolmaster was ruled out of
the gentleman" or ESQUIRE list. Brit
ish legal distinctions on this point have
been anomalous, however. The fol-
lowing are not gentlemen: A buyer
OF silks, a solicitors clerk out Of reg
ular work, commission agent and an
audit office clerk. On the other hand
the following have been held gentle
men," viz: one following country pur-
suits and a silent partner in some bust
ness. a medical student, a dismissed
coal agent out of work, and a person
living on a parents allowance.
Aside from legal authority, it may be
said that Matthew Arnold explained the
difference in the English custom by an
assertion that signified that a gentle
man, or any one who is engaged in a
"gentlemanly" occupation is denomi-
mated ESQUIRE" but that the trades
man is entitled to nothing better than
mister"
The English themselves are not al
ways sure in making the distinction
Not long ago it was found by one who
took the trouble to investigate that the
railway companies vouchsafe the honor
OF esquire" only to those passengers
who care sufficiently about their social
standing to be holders of first class
season tickets
The real derivation of the word "es-
Quire" is, as most people will remem-
Der. from "escuyer''-old French for
shield bearer'-and SO it came to be
applied to the chief retainers OF
knights. When the feudal days passed
the word remained.
