No Place for Hanehty sza..

A naughty citizen once strolled into the Supreme Court at Washington when an argument was being heard and took a seat in the inclosure re- served for lawyers After he had been there a few minutes an attend ant came over and asked him: Are you member of the barr"
 The naughty person wasn't, but he took out his card with a flourish and handed it over.
 The attendant received the card gravely. carried 1t to the clerk, who glanced at it and gave some instruc- tions.
 A moment later the naughty citizen was touched on the shoulder and asked to retire.
 "Why?" he asked. 'T sent up my card. It usually gives me a seat in any court in the land"
 Certainly" said the attendant; but please retire.
 The naughty citizen did retire When he got out in the corridor he fumed and fussed bit.

 Two mornigs later, as Mrs. Carr was cutting some sprays from the porch, she heard the sounds of alter cation at the kitchen door. Greta's gentle voice was raised higher than usual. and Wilhelm's, too., in tones of wonder and remonstrance.
 "I been tell you. Wilhelm." Greta was saying, Ines only a monkey, and no higher up nor my shoulder"
 But he's got de head" eagerly. "It been no matter bout de size; 1t be de head dat make great peoples. You know dat. Greta."

 "Den-den you not marry himr"
 'Marry-Fritz!" Greta burst out an grily. AS she heard the words. Mrs. Carr's hands closed softly upon the honeysuckle sprays. The voice was sharp, but it was full of humiliated tears. She was slipping back into the house when the next words relieved the strain. Evidently there had been something in Wilhelm's eyes or face, for the sharp voice suddenly broke.

 "I was surprised at the Mexican gveetmeats.' said a man just back from Mexico. ''I do not think there can be any fruit or vegetable which they do not candy. preserve in syrup or convert into jam
 "In a queer little pueblo in the state of Zacatecas I heard a wom- an calling monotonously, 'CimarrGnes, calabasas' Now these words in Eng fish mean sweet potatoes and pump kins She had small tray, held in around her neck.
 -"I crossed the plaza and asked her for i've cents worth of calabasas She placed several pieces of a sugary yellow substance in a paper bag and I realized that I was going to have the experience of tasting candied pumpkin
 "If you can imagine pumpkin pie frozen hard and saturated with sugar you can get an idea of the flavor of the queer confection. One grows to like 1t after one has lived in Mexico for while.
 S"The cimarrones were also rather nice. The sweet potatoes are boiled in water until they are soft. They are then soaked in hot syrup and can died. A final coating of powdered white sugar Is added and gives them the appearance of large Easter eggs.
 "Beets, carrots. turnips and arti- chokes are some of the vegetables made into sweetmeats in Mexico. Tropical fruits of every description are also used for this purpose, and candied watermelon peel is a great favorite.
 ''The regular stand of the sweet meat vendors Is on the plaza, but at night they turn out in force around the doors of the theaters. A Mexican senorita would not enjoy the show unless she had good supply of her native confections to munch. It Is her substitute for the chocolate creams that we buy for our matinee girls.

What Road. owe to Salt.

Roads, we are told. owe great deal to salt. According to one theory. the oldest trade routes came into exist ence as a result of the traffic in salt. One of the oldest roads in Italy is the "Via Salaria," along which the people of the Sabine country obtained their salt from the salt pans of Ostia. Salt was the main merchandise. carried in the trans-Libyan caravans of the days of Herodotus, and salt Is one of the chief clements in the trade along the Sahara caravan routes to-day. Salt and salt fish. it is interesting to re- member, entered largely into the com merce of the Carthaginians. The lat ter, by the way. was considered del. icacy in those pre-Christian days.

K1LMAINHAM JAIL CLOSED UP.
Not Enough Criminals in Dublin to
 Keep Prison Stan Busy.

Not Enough Criminals in Dublin to Keep Prison Stan Busy. Kflmainham jail, historic prison, is closed this year. This is a result of a decision of the general prison board. not in Dublin or the neighboring couc- ties criminals enough to keep the staff employed
 Dublin is probably the only city O. it's size in Europe in which such a thing could happen, says a Boston Her aids Dublin correspondent. Crime in the ordinary sense is practically non existent in Ireland. The great guilds of crime-the bands of professional burglars and robbers, the financial conspirators, adept forgers. trained thieves. habitual leviers of blackmail, bogus noblemen, parsons and ladies Of family. long firm practitioners. hotel and railway sharps, "magsmen. hooks" and "bounces" are al most entirely unrepresented in Ire land. Tn a word," to quote an Eng lish writer, ''so far as habitual and professional, crime Is concerned there Is not another as decent country in Europe"
 During the troubled days of 1880 Kilmainham received hosts of "sus- pects," arrested under the coercion act, of which Gladstone was the author Parnell himself and a number of his lieutenants were among the prisoners at this time. It was from Kilmainham that the famous defiant counsel to the tenant farmers of Ireland, interpreted by the unionist party as a ''no-rent manifesto" was issued.
 It was while ParneD and his CO., leagues were in Kilmainham that the negotiations with the government took place, which are said to have re- suited in what was called the xii mailman treaty"
 MT. Parnell was in Kilmainham from Oct. 13, 1881, to May 2, 1882. On the day of his release Mr. Foster resigned the chief secretaryship. He would not, 1t was said, give up coer cion." Earl Cowper at the same time relinquished the office of viceroy. The new viceroy, Earl Spencer, entered Dublin on the 9th; with him was the new chief secretary, Lord Frederick Cavendish
 The Phoenix Park murders hap pened shortly after and in due course Kilmainham received the men. many of whom were convicted and executed.

WILHELM

Good morning. Wilhelm" Mrs Carr looked up from her book as tall broad-shouldered Wilhelm, the gard. ener. tiptoed heavily across the ve. randa. "Is there anything I can do for you?"
 Wilhelm's good-natured face broke into a deprecating smile.
 "Goot morning. Mis- Carr" he an swered. ''and yes. there be somet'ing. I will want ten dollars"
 Why, you had ten dollars yester- day"
 Yes, but dat was for somet'ing else; dis be for anodder ting. I can haf him. yes?" somewhat anxIousIy.
 "Of course. There is still over a hundred due you" She rose and stepped through a broad. low window to a desk. returning a few moments later with a crisp note, which she handed him. You ought to take your wages each month and put your money in a bank, Wilhelm" she said, as she resumed her chair and picked up her book. You would be drawing Interest then.
 Wilhelm shook his head.
 Tt better like dis. I know a man who lose money in de bank one time, and I haf none of him. Tank you for dis. I go now"
 But still he fingered. Evidently lowered
 "Well?"
 Tt is bout de girl. Greta." Wilhelm deprecated. "She be de fines girl in de world"
 "Yes, Greta is a very fine gIrl." Mrs. Carr assented; "and a splendid cook. What about her?"
 But there was little smile on Mrs. Carr's lips now, and the book was once more closed, with a jeweled finger between it's leaves as marker. She had seen Wilhelm lingering about the kitchen door very often of late, and had thought very little of It. But with that glow on his face and the eager hesitation in his speech, the situation was suddenly becoming transparent. She gave a little imper- cepticle nod to herself as she waited for the slow lips to proceed Wilhelm was handsome man, and Greta was . very pretty. capable girl They had both been in her employ long enough for her fully to appreciate their value; and good help was hard to obtain.

If one may judge from the fiction Df one's grandparents. the act of faint Ing. or becoming. unconscious. almost took rank as a social accomplishment. The young ladies. and often even the young gentlemen if they were very fascinating. spent great part of their lime in swoons; and as extreme emo honal sensibility was the keystone of fascination in Byronic days, 1t follows that these incessant and alarming syn copes were the direct result of emo- tional shocks.
 Now although 1t is true that emo- tional shocks will cause fainting spells In certain persons, still one cannot re- sist the impression that many of these otherwise excellent young persons were either giving themselves treat, or at least weakly yielding to an un- fortunate social taste. Still 1t may be conceded that the conditions of those days were more in favor of fainting than are our own.
 The corset of sixty years ago was a sruel and unyielding instrument of tor ture, exercising its pressure in such way as to interfere with the breath ing apparatus; athletics for girls were almost unheard of. and few rooms were properly especially bedrooms-all of which causes may have conduced to that condition of cerebral anemia which Is the under lying reason for fainting 1t.
 Cerebral anemia means an insufi- cient supply of blood to the brain, and may be brought about in various ways. When a person faints from a sudden shock. caused by an accident or from some unnerving sight or sound. 1t with blood has been sharply interfered with. resulting in a temporary loss of consciousness.
 A hemorrhage from any part of the body will act mechanically to produce the same result.
 Persons with weak or disordered hearts often faint readily. because any sudden demand upon the heart may cause 1t to send out a hurry call for more blood than the system Is able to supply. The same thing is often seen when a person conyalescing from an acute illness faints from a slight exertion, sometimes even from too abrupt change of posture. The blood rushes down to meet the call upon 1t. and the brain is left with too little to go on with for the moment. This also applies to sufferers from chronic ane- mia and to persons with defective cir culation, whose blood supply is always Insufficient.
 For simple fainting spell but little treatment is needed. The patient should be placed in a. horizontal posi- tin in order to equalize the circula- tion, and should be allowed plenty of fresh air A whiff of ammonia cau- tiously given acts as quick stimu- lant. In Q case of prolonged faint. cold water may be sprinkled over the face and chest. or mustard plaster placed over the region of the heart Youths CompaniOn

Senator Jas. P. Taliaferro spent yes
terday in Pensacola, leaving at p. m.
for Jacksonville, from which place he
will go Immediately to Washington.
Florida's senior senator is looking
well and he talks frankly concerning
his candidacy for reelection. He
stands squarely on his record of things
accomplished for the state and of
votes cast in accordance with demo
cratic policies.
A feature of Senator Taliaferro' S
visit was his call upon Judge l.. J.
Reeves, one of his opponents in the
race for reelection. The meeting was
a very pleasant one and the two can
didates jo1lieo each other on their re-
spective prospects and on the result
of the campaign. Each wished the
other the best of everything with the
single exception of success in this
particular race.
Senator Taliaferro saw many i'm.
provements in Pensacola and he was
especially impressed with the street
paving work and the new hotel.
