NOT
DISAPPOINTED
WITH KANSAS
Special by United Press Wire,

New York, Aug. 3:-According to
the statement of Congressman Henry
Clay Loudenslager. of New Jersey.
today, the sweeping victory of the
insurgents In Kansas did not sur
prise the members of the republican
congressional campaign committee
at the New York headquarters, of
which he has charge.
Since l have been in congress-"
said Mr.. L~oudenslager, there has
ever been populist members from
that state, SO it isn't unusual that it
should pick out i%nsurgent republic
cans. Kansas, you see, runs to
'isms,' and it is no surprise that the
regulars won out. OF course, the
congressional campaign committee
will assist the insurgents, If they ask
assistance. We shall not force our
aid upon them, but If they want lit
erature for their district, they can
have it. We'd even give our iitera-
ture to a democrat if we thought
he'd use it.

The bulldog, unlike the majority OF
dogs, very seldom banks. In fact, ow-
ing to the construction of his throat
his attempts at barking are more like
a burlesque of the real thing. He
wades into a fight without any vocal
warning, and the only sound he emits
Is his heavy breathing. His courage
is astonishing. and the largeness Of his
opponent eve acts as a deterrent
when hostilities are imminent. Still, as
he is not a quarrelsome dog, he very
rarely INDUCES in street brawls, and,
as he is exceedingly good natured, it
takes q lot to rouse him.
The modern bulldog is undoubtedly
a different looking animal from his bull
fighting ancestors. The most conspicu-
Gus Improvements" introduced by the
present day fancy" are largeness of
head, width of chest, heaviness of
bone and more typical tail.

Escorted Her Anyway.

While Robert Browning and his son
Barrett were living alone in Florence
the son gave one afternoon an exhibit
ton of his new paintings in the family
drawing To Mr.. Browning was
assigned the task of meeting the
guests. Late in the afternoon, when
the room was well filed, there appeared
at the drawing roo door a woman
whose face was familiar. Yet Mr..
Browning could not recall her name,
and he judged from her appearance
that she vas not an invited guest.
There was embarrassment on both
sides for a moment, and then the wo-
man said eagerly; ooh, please, Mr..
Browning, Pm the cook. Mr.. Barrett
said as l was to come and see his pref
ty pictur's.",
Whereupon Mr.~-Browning, offering
his arm, showed her about the room
with all the attention that he could
have bestowed upon a reigning queen.

The Rhodun4 Sjdus.

An amusing story told by Hood de-
scribes how a country nurseryman
made a large sum out Of sales of a
simple little flower which he sold I'M
der the name of the Rhodum sidus.
This charming name proved quite an
attraction to the ladies, and the flower
became the rage Of the season. 1t was
one Of those freaks of fashion for
which there is M accounting. At
length a botanist who found. that the
plant was not an uncommon weed re-
quested to know where the nursery
man got the name from. He ELECTED
the following reply: 81 found this iow-
er In the road beside us, so christened
1t the Rhodum sidus."

The Rat and the Bulbs.

According to the French naturalist
De Parville, a gardener planted one
afternoon $50 tulip4bulbs onva terrace,
and next morning he noticed that the
ground had been disturbed and that
the bulbs had all been taken away.
He was confident that rats had done
the work, and, taking a spade, he be-
gan to dig In the hope of discovering
their nest. Soon he unearthed a large
female rat, which he killed, and after
digging a few mor minutes he dis
covered an underground chamber lined
with hay and leaves and connected by
a corridor with two holes, which were
evidently used as storehouses, for in
them he found the $50 tu.p bulbs.
This was remarkable, but more re-
markable was the fact that they were
neatly arranged in two rows, and that
not one of them had been gnawed or
otherwise injured.

A NIGERIAN LEGEND.
1t Tells of the Origin of Mans Sub
~jection to Women.

1t Tells of the Origin of Mans Sub
~jection to Women.
There Is a quaint old Nigerlan legend
that relates the origin Of mans sub
lection to women.
At the beginning of things. the le-
gend runs. the world was peopled by
women only. One day the earth god,
Awbassi Nal, happened by accident to
kill a woman On hearing this the rest
gathered together and prayed that, If
he meant to Stay them, he would bring
destruction on all together rather than
kill them one by one.
Awbassi was sorry for the grief he
had caused and offered as compensa-
ton to give them anything they should
choose out of all his possessions. They
begged him to mention what he had to
give and said that they would all cry
"Yes" when he named the thing they
wished to have.
Awbassi mentioned one by one all
his fruits, fowls and beasts. but at
each they shouted mo" AT length
the list was nearly ended-only one
thing remained to offer.
"Will you, then, take manY' asked
Awbassi al last. "Yesw they roared
in a great shout, and. catching hold of
M another. danced for Joy at the
thought of the gift Awbassi was send
ing.
Thus men became the servants OF
women and have to work for them to
this day.

The hookah is smoked as a refresh
ment and sign Of fellowship by the ma
tiyes of India and not merely as a lux
ury. When a group of natives are
seated together and, as is the custom.
the hookah is passed around to each In
turn, 1t is considered very bad man
ners for any one to decline to. have a
few puffs. If the hookah is thus re-
fused in q friends house or while one
is the guest of another 1t is regarded
as an insult. If for any reason a ma
