He was to establish and to main

How the Great Actor Watched the
Law Makers at Work and Guessed
Their Characters With Re.
markable Accuracy.

Sir Henry Irving first appeared on
toe American stage in 1888. Not long
after his debut as Matthias, in THE
Bells" i had the pleasure of meeting
the great English actor-manager at a
little breakfast in Washington. Dur
ing the course of the meal he asked

De told their names, for 1t frequently
affords me a great pleasure to learn
that my personal observations have
enabled me to read accurately the
characters of some of my unconscious
subjects"
That afternoon 1t was not difficult
70 secure for Sir Henry Irving-then
plain Mr.. Henry Irving-a seat IN the
visitors gallery where he would be
fairly safe from observation, and yet
could see everything that was taking
place on the floor of the house. AS
soon as he was seated he became in
tensely interested In the proceedings

he whole house, seeming to take it

IT IS COED FOR YOUNGSTERS
AND GROWNUPS.
Would Be Better for Children II School
Stores Sold Gingerbread Rather
Than "Tootsy Rolls" and
Other CONNECTIONS.

The popularity of gingerbread
among the small fry has greatly
waned. 1t would be far better for the
children If the school stores sold this
dainty rather than the ''tootsy rolls"
and other penny connections. and II
these same children could say. "Of all

In several countries of Europe hot
gingerbread used to be hawked about.
In London there were gingerbread
booths by the Thames. In Holland 1t
was in greater request than else
where, and its manufacture guarded
with jealous secret and the recipe
handed down as an heirloom from
father to son.
One of the most unique uses Of the
hard ginger cake was to have 1t as a
barometer. These were made in the
form Of man or woman. The slight

weather it is hard and tough. In a
French story this barometer is called

master asks his servant, What does

his thumb to the figure and says: The
general feels flabby about the chest;

Economic crises, business failure,

Nevada Senator Declared That Alaska
Would Be Found to Be One Of the
Worlds Principal Sources Of
the Yellow Metal.

From the time. In August, 1875,
when he became chairman Of the
monetary commission provided by
Joint resolution of congress to ex-
anime and report upon the question
Of bimetallism. until the silver issue
passed off the political stage, John r.
Jones, Nevada member of the United
States senate for 30 years. beginning
in 1873. was one of the foremost
champions of bimetallism In this
country. His desertion of the Repub-
lican party in 1896 on the silver Ques-
ton is historic.
About a year after the 1896 presi-
Dental campaign had been decided In
favor of William Mckinley and the
gold standard l met Senator Jones,
and in the course of the conversation
said to him: 81 have heard it said.

opinion respecting the use of silver

wondering whether that report Is

II will tell you about that as we
walk along" he said. and took my
arm. II have not changed my opin-
ion respecting the expediency Of US
ing silver as a money metal-at least.
the opinion l held when l advocated
bimetallism. But conditions have
changed lately, az they changed fol-
lowing the discovery of gold in Cali
fornia. Before that discovery. the sill
yer dollar was really the standard.
and the ratio between gold and sill
yer was strongly in favor OF
silver. Two factors have served to
bring about the present change. One
IL the discovery Of process by
which very low grade gold ore can
be profitabiy worked. and the other
is the vast development of gold min
ing in South Africa and the United
States. These factors have served to
give us more of the gold than we had
at the time l was advocating bimet
allism."

ion might be traced to the fact that

That is Samuel S. Cox. commonly

And then he was told of Representa-
tive Cox's literary career and partic-
ularly Of his gorgeous description Of a
sunset which won him national liter
airy fame and his lifelong nickname.
Sir Henry thought a moment.
Il should think he would be more

Sir Henry asked. But almost before
he had time to receive an answer. he
suddenly leaned forward excitedly and
exclaimed abruptly: "Ah, there In a
man l should like to study" And
thereafter he sat In silent observation
for perhaps a quarter Of an hour.
Il cannot quite fathom that mans
intellect" he said at last; apparently.
he is lethargic. physically. yet Of won

what interests me in him is the fact
that his head Is perfect copy, In

answer.
"Wonderful-wonde IL the like
ness between his head and that of the
bust of Shakespeare" exclaimed Sir
Henry under his breath. And during
the rest of the hour that the great
English actor, who had proved himself
SO excellent a reader Of mems charac-

was constantly riveted on Thomas B.

Prof. Gaupp Says the Majority OF
Cases of Suicides Are Due to
Distraction.

Suicides in many cases leave notes
in which they protest their sanity;
nevertheless present day eoroners'
1uries are apt to remain true to the
time honored formula. Suicide dur
ing temporary insanity" That view
is indicated by the Munich alienist
Professor Gaupp, who has completed
from Official statistics a work on sui
eide and it's causes.
The writer holds that by far the
majority of cases are due either to
pronounced insanity, or to psyche
pathic degeneracy, all other causes
being relatively Insignificant. The
suicide rate shows a continued in
crease IN all civilized countries with
the exception Of Norway, where the
legal suppression of the drink traffic
is mainly responsible for the decrease.
In Germany the northern provinces
