MANS LUGGAGE WAS
SAVED BY STRANGER
"Seat Hog" Pays Penalty for
Missing" Friend

good story is told of Chirgwin, the
celebrated white eyed Kaffir. Chirgwin
was due to fulfill an engagement in the
provinces, and arrived at Euston a few
minutes before the departure of his
train, says London Scraps. Hastily pur-
chasing his ticket he cast about for a
seat The train was crowded, with the
exception of one compartment, in a cor
ner of which rested a large travelling
case in company with a stout faced in
dividual Chirgwin promptly made for
this, but was accosted by the red faced
man as follows:
'sThat seat belongs to friend of
mine. That's his bag, and he will be
back in minute.
"All right murmured Chirgwin. cas-
ily. sI'n wait here till he comes"
Whereupon the fat man grunted, and
looked anything but amiable.
The minutes passed and finally, to
the amusement of the other passengers
and the chagrin of the greedy individ-
ual the train began steaming out of
the station.
Il say, old chap exclaimed Chirgwin,
gravely, your friend has lost his train.
But we mustn't let him lose his lug
gage. eh?''
With this observation Chirgwin grip
ped the travelling case eXpeditiously,
flung it through the window to the
platform and dropped quietly into the
vacant seat. The feelings of the red
faced man. who thus matched the disap-
pearance of his luggage, may be better
imagined than described.

himself directly in opposition to Vice

1t was late in the afternoon when
Roosevelt reached Summit park. sum-
mer resort overlooking the Mohawk
river. Ten thousand persons who at
tended the grange picnic there today
were waiting for him and raised a cheer
as he appeared on the platform.
Roosevelt spied Senator Davenport at
once and greeted him warmly. AS soon
as he began his speech he turned to the
senator and said:
'I am glad to see you on the
platform. Senator Davenport The
only kind of politics l care for is
the kind of politics in which de-
cency Is combined with efficiency.
I hold that the only way in which a
politician can really serve his party
is by helping that party efficiently
to serve the people. Because the
senator and the meD who nave act
ed with him have stood for this
principle I am glad to be on the
platform with him.
There was more cheering as the
colonel uttered these words. When he
could be heard again he added:
You will at least notice that my ut
terances are free from ambiguity"
Then the colonel proceeded with his
talk TO the farmers. What pleased
the grangers most was ithis statement.
I will never go with the type of
farmer who says: Il am down on
lawyers and bankers; I am against
the businessman.
I will go with him when he says:
'I am against a bad type of lawyer
or bad type of banker.
