stopped, and the Georgia congressman
had accomplished what the postmaster
general couldn't do.
To show how up-to-date everything
Is in Washington, the secretary of the
interior kindly calls the attention Of
congress to the elevators in the in.
terror department, which were put in
service over thirty years ago. In the
first place, these same elevators are
little sheet-iron cages only big enough
to carry half dozen and unable to lift
over 300 or 400 pounds weight, and are
really not safe as we'll as antique in

alton Of $4,000 has been asked for the
installation Of four new electric lifts

ship. Donor and recipient were pleased
beyond measure, and the ships re-
sumed their journeys.
After the lapse of considerable time,
a number of Chilean warships stopped
in the harbor at Rio Janeiro, and
among the entertainments prepared TO
the officers was one at the American
legation. Minister Bryan was more
than usually felicitous as a host, and
the Chileans thought they should in
some manner show their appreciation.
So the next day delegation Of gold
laced, beplumed and clanking warriors
appeared at the legation, and after
presenting Col. Bryan an address
teeming with good nature they gave
him the onca-the same old cat, only
larger and hungrier, and more re.
pulsive-and the minister turned away
to hide his tears. He had received
the same token twice from two wide
ly separated sources.
Later the onca was given to the
captain of merchant ship under an
ironclad agreement the animal was not
to be put ashore at port anywhere If
Col. Bryan was there.
Col. Bryan has had an interesting
diplomatic experience. While serving
in Brazil he witnessed the rise and
collapse OF revolution against the re-
public. but the disturbance never was
serious enough TO cause embarrass-
ment to the diplomatic corps.
Then he was transferred to Portugal
and was in Lisbon at the time of the
assassination of the king.

The saloonkeeper and the baker fol-
years have gathered their daily har-
vest Of these little coins. The soda
fountain, growing in popular favor,
deals mostly in ''nickels." Ice cream
in summer time goes for five cents,
and the charge for a myriad Of things
in the pharmacy and the five-cent
store requires this coin.
Most smokers would have to quit
were it not for the nickel" obnoxious
as the domestic cigar is to many Of
them. The cigarette would cease to
be the popular smoke it is If the price
were not five cents. Shoe laces would
either become luxury at higher
price or require payment in pennies.
Turn which way one will, the five
cent piece bobs up at every turn as
the most necessary coin of the realm
It's discontinuance would inevitably in
crease the cost of thousand things Of
everyday life, which no dealer now
has the daring to change because Of
riveted custom.
There is no likelihood that the gov
ernment will soon consider the elm
ination OF this coin, as such action
would result in a howl of disapprOYA

TOL. CHARLES PAGE BRYAN,
~ who has been transferred from his
place Fs minister to Portugal to that
of minister to Belgium, had an unusual
trib':te paid to his popularity while
serving as minister to Brazil. A large
coffee importer, returning from a trip
to the interior, brought with him a
young onca, which is species of wild
cat or tiger, and he gave it to COL
Bryan as testimonial of his regard.
The minister was fond Of animals,
and priced his gift highly, but the
onca> while interesting during it's
youth, rapidly loses that attraction as
it becomes older, one Of its specialties
being an Unsuitable appetite. The col
onel wearied Of his pet, and one day
when some United States battleships
were in port he presented the onca to
the officers Of the Iowa as a mascot.
In the course of time the men of the
navy looked about for some one on
whom to unload the animal, and at
Bvenos Ayres they fell in with u
Chilean man-of-war. AS token of the
cordially existing between them. the
Impoverished Iowa officers gave the

w could afford to dispense with al
most any coin rather than the five
cent piece. It stands for more stable
prices than any other. It is the price
OF loaf Of bread; 1t pays the cost of
the ride In the street car; with it the
German buys his glass of beer and the
American pays for the shining of his
shoes. It is probably not too much to
say that the disappearance Of the
nickel would prove a greater shock
to the finances of the nation than al
most anything that could happen.
The f1ve-cent coin for two genera
lions, at least, has been the fixed price
OF so many things that the people
would be at complete loss how to pro-
coed without it. True. hundreds Of
thousands of t1ve-cent pieces are lost
each year, but that is due largely to
the amazing use to which this little
coin is put. The uses of business re-
quire the coinage of greater number
of "nickels" than any other coin.

THE late Congressman Griggs of
/ Georgia once had an experience
with negro elevator operator in the
post office department at Washington
which the negro probably never will
forget. The congressman entered an
express elevator which was forbidden
to stop below the fifth floor, on which
is located the Office of the postmaster
general.
Let me of at the fourth floor"
said the congressman.
This elevator doan' stop below the
fifth flo'," responded the negro with
finality.

commanded Griggs, looking the negro
in the eye.

at dat flo. Why, it wouldn't stop even
for the postmaster general hissel."
Griggs' southern ire was aroused.

was, however, soon remedied, and now
we like it SO much that we will never
