Silly Billy From Bolton.

In 4 certain town in the north OF
England there is man known by
the name of silly Billy. Not feeling
well one day. he sent for the doctor.
After examination the doctor asked
him if he would take n note to the
Model lodging house and he would
give him SiXpence. So Billy, not llK-
ing to refuse. said ne would. But on
the way there he came across street
sweeper that he knew. He told the
sweeper where he was going, but ne
said if he would take the note he
would give him thrccpencc. SO on
he went and gave the landlord the
note. and he found the following
written:
GIVE this man n bath and keep
him in till tomorrow morning. ana !
will call and see him"
SO the following morning the doctor
came and was shown into his room.
Luoking at the man, he exclaimed:
This is not the man I scnt!'
NO. it's not. and I'll pound silly
Billy's head off when | see him! the
sweeper replied.-Lond0n Telegraph

A PERSIAN WEDDING.
A Quaint Marriage Ceremony In TIE.
heran.


l entered a tortuous, covered dark
way leading from a dirty street from
the most crowded part of the bazaar in
Teheran into what reminded me of the
patio of an old Moorish house in
Spain. The passage cut into the wall
was like a tortuous way to a torture
chamber of the Inquisition. Here and
there a Persian soldier stood near an
oil stove in the dark, his tattered uni
form looking like a burlesQue of war.
Unexpectedly the dark ended and a
courtyard of the womens quarters. Two
square stone basins Of clear, clean wa
ter formed the centre of the patio and
stone paths ran round them. Stunted
trees here and there pushing their
squeezed trunks through the paving
stones of the courtyard gave the i'm
preston of a shabby garden. The house
stood at the far end, facing me as en-
tered, and the first impression which
I received was of a moving mass Of
rather solid butterflies, or a cluster Of
badly painted sweetpeas-for so looked
the women. You could not say they
were not attractive, for they were, but
it was like a scene in play all done a
little wrong to our eyes. l have grown
accustomed to these standards and /
can now also see them as they un-
6nuhta6ly Saa Themselves
This sweetpea effect arises from the
headdress they wear, a piece of book
muslin, stiffened to a curve, round the
low open brow, flowing free of the sides
and behind. Their brilliantly colored
dresses become softened under the
white: the hair is cut short and much
curled on the forehead with the state
of matrimony, while the girls wear it
braids down their back. Let me here
make the surprising statement that
the Persian married women have al
ways worn bangs; the innovation of
the bang in the west came from the
eaSt-so does one live and learn. They
clustered on the floor and on chairs,
on a high terrace supported by Stucco
columns, and the house opened on this.
About fourteen feet below the terrace,
on the courtyard path, was q huge bon
fire: here the same effect of clumsy
| flowers was repeated where the SER
wants sat.
Between us and the house a raised
wooden platform, covered with rugs,
held a company of dancing girls and
musicians-while on the roofs of the
high mud walls on either side crowd
of women, again like clusters of flow
ers. saZcd down from their hOusctOps

The Fatal Street Corner,

In a Nova Scotia town lived an old
man whose wife had recently died,
leaving him in a comfortable house
with no one to look after him. He
soon began "lookin' round" for second
helpmate, and settled on a widow
whose status as a housekeeper for her
former spouse was well-established.
The old man had but one objection to
her: she was a Methodist, and ne had
been a devout Presbyterian all his life.
It's all right but for that one
thing" he confided to his crony, when
they fell to discussing his drawbacks.
Come weekdays, she will be fine, I'm
a-thinking. She can keep me tidy,
mind the house, and, man, ye know she
can cook. But then" and ne shook his
head doubtfully-"then will come Sun
day. We will be starting off for church
together, just as husband and wife
should be doing on the Sabbath day,
and we will come to the corner. Then
Mandy, she will be turning to go down
the street to that Methodist place, and
1 will go on to the house of God alone

LADIES HERE

Mrs. Lulu Reed. of Denver, presi-
dent of the Ladies of the Grand Army
OF the Republic, for the department
of Colorado and Wyoming. and Mrs.
Ruth e. Foote, past national presi-
dent OF the same organization, under
the chaperonage of Secretary Ma
hony were about the city looking up
headquarters for their convention
which meets at the same time that
the G. 4. r. convention meets in this
city.
They were fortunate in securing
Margery hall for the sessions of their
organization. Mrs. Lulu Reed, the
president, will have headquarters at
the st. Regis hotel.
The Ladies of the Grand Army of
the Republic are an entirely different
organization than the Women's Relief
Corps with which organization they
are frequently confused. The two
organizations, while working on the
same lines to a certain extent are not
the same.
The principal point of difference is
that the Woman's Relief Corps will
accept any loyal citizen as a member,
while the Ladies of the Grand Army
of the Republic will not do so

FIRE COMMISSIONERS GET
OPINION, THEN DISREGARD 1T
Refuse Barber Asphalt Company
Permit for Plant

When the fire commission does not
like decisions of the city attorney it
oVerrules him and makes decisions to
suit itself. 1t did so yesterday when
the Barber Asphalt cOmpany's appH-
cation for permit to conduct a pay
ing plant at 1226-32 East Twenty eighth
street came up for discussion.
The application for the plant was
made at the meeting of the commits
sion last week. There was a strong
protest against it, as people who live
in the neighborhood did not like the
idea of asphalt fumes as a permanent
thing. But the location for which the
permit was asked is in an industrial
district where such enterprises are eX-
pected to go. The commission referred
the matter to the legal department,
and Emmett Wilson, chief deputy city
attorney, rendered an opinion to the
effect that as the location is in an in
dustrial district the commission was
compelled, by the terms of the ordi-
nance to grant the permit, providing
the fire risk was safe.
But there was just as big protest
Yesterday as there was at the session
a week ago and the commission con-
cluded to oVerrule the city attorney
and take a chance, so the application
was denied. The mayor was attend
ing a session of the aqueduct board
and Commissioner Williamson refused
to vote on the matter, but Commits
sioners Hawley, Molonv and Robinson
felt strong enough to turn the Barber
people down.
The city attorney says the applicant
probably can compel the issuance of
the permit by mandamus proceed
ings.

WANTED-NEW SAINT TO

People in the southwestern part of
the city are determined to drive the
cows out Of their district. Twice they
have asked the council to amend the
COW district ordinance so as to in
clude their section of the city, and
twice they have been disappointed.
once the council did pass the ordi-
nance, but it was vetoed by the mayor
and returned to the councils files.
Another petition to the same eff
feet was filed yesterday. This time
the petitioners ask that the district
bounded by Wesern, jefferson, Santa
Barbara and Arlington be included in
the COW district. They represent there
are three dairies having a total of 100
cows within those limits and the cows
are detrimental to health, offensive 10
tba senses and a detriment to their
property. If the ordinance was made
to cover this territory only one COW
could be kept by each family,
