Charles v. at Table.

Emperor Charles V. Of Austria, by
far the most powerful ruler of his day,
was thus described as he appeared at
table by Roger Ascham. secretary to
the English ambassador. in 1850: II
stood hard by the emperor's table. He
had four courses; he had sod beef
very good-roast mutton, baked hare:
tuese be no service in England. The
emperor hath a good face, a constant
look; he fed well Of a capon; I have
had better from mine hostess Barnes
many times in my chamber. He and
Ferdinando. king of the Romans. ate
together very handsomely. carving
themselves where they list. without
any curiosity. The emperor drank the
best that ever l saw; he had his head
in the glass five times as long as any
Of us and never drank less than a good
quart at once Of Rhenish wine" It
was notorious that the emperor ate
and drank immoderately, and as a nat
ural result he suffered terribly from
govt from the time he was thirty years
old.

What "Hamtet" Lacked.

In a mining camp town "Hamiee
was one evening given by stroiang
company, and this is the criticism that
appeared next day in the local papers,
written by the miner dramatic critic:
"There is too much Ginning In this
piece. The author is behind the times
and seems to forget that what we
want nowadays is hair raising situa-
tons and detectives.
I'm the hands Of skillfu: play
wright detective would have been
nut upon the track Of Hamlets uncle,
and the old man would have been
hunted down in manner that would
have lifted the audience out Of their
cowhides.
1.-THE moral Of the piece is not good
The scene where Hamlet sasses his
mother is a very bad example to the
rising generation.
"Our advice to the author is more
action. more lovemaking and plenty
Of specialties. The crazy girl scene
should be cut out altogether and q
rafting good song and dance substi.
tuted."

A Death Lure.

According to tradition. Zenith. the
legendary king of Scotland. was al
lured to his death in a most novel man.
ner. ZENITH had slain son and broth
or of Fennella. who to be avenged or
dered Wiltus. a famous silversmith. to
construct death dealing statue Of sill
yer. In it's right hand the statue held
a basin and in the left hand an apple
Of pure gold. both set with diamonds
and other precious stones. To touch
the apple was to defy death, it being
so arranged that any one guilty of
such vandalism would be Immediately
riddled by poisoned arrows shot from
openings in the body Of the statue.
ZENITH was invited to inspect the Won
der. and. as Fennella had hoped. he
tried to pluck the precious imitation
fruit When his hand touched the ap-
pie he was wounded by the arrows and
died where he fell.

Dirt and Death.

When celebrated Paris physician
was asked how the city could prevent
the coming of plague then ravaging
other European places he answered,
boil your ice"' That tersely called
attention to the necessity Of utter
cleanliness and that even ice made
from impure water carried disease
yellow fever said Henry Ward
Beecher. lis God Almightys opinion of
dirt" The chief contributing cause
toward modern efficiency in surgery is
that surgeons have learned to keep
clean. Nothing is so spotless as good
hospital. Everything is boiled and
sterilized-beds. instruments. clothing,
washrags. floors. hands and finger
nails. That is why they save lives
there. Nobody would die If he could
keep perfectly clean. Death is the
final triumph Of dirt.-Chicago Trib-
une.

The Tajmud.

The Talmud is the compendium Of an
cient Jewish oral. or unwritten. law,
as distinguished from the Pentateuch,
or written. law. Its origin is coeval
with the return of the Jewish people
from the Babylonian captivity. 536 B.
G. Its compilation in Hebrew was be-
gun by the scribes. and by their sue
cessors the work was carried on till
22O B. G. The Talmud is combina-
ton Of prose and poetry and contains
two elements. legal and legendary. Its
morality resembles that of the New
Testament. and it's philosophy reminds
US very forcibly Of that of the great
PlatO-New York American.

Der yards, the railroad yards, and
rounded up several whom we es-
corted according to program. Then
we came back and started another
crowd toward the east.
Not drop of blood was spilled,
nor man hurt, but the town for
months was side-stepped by tramps
and hoboes Of all sorts. 1t is a
fact that in "a hours the news OF
that cleanup had gotten as far east
as Butte, and west to Seattle, and
what tramps had reason to pass
thru that section for months hug
ged the river bank below town.
When it was all over we went up
to the drugstore and cheered Hal,
(and vice versa). That night going
home to my claim" east Of town,
I happened to think of the gun in
my pocket, pulled it out and fred
no, I didn't. That gun wouldn't
shoot any more than wooden gun.
But had served my time as Cap
tain, honorably, and did not know
the difference.
I remember that event was among
the first that put Kennewick we'll
on the map generally. The Spo-
kane Review and other large daily
papers had full reports of it, and
for time really, there was talk by
one or two of the fellows we had
deported, of haling us before the
courts. We had of course overstep-
ped the limits of organized govern
ment.
Soon after that the commissioners
organized US, and this writer was
made the first peace justice of that
section.
AS I remember the Kennewick of
those first six months or year, /
am impressed that no town was
ever started in that section with so
little to mar the performance. The
men seemed to agree we'll, and were
jolly crowd. doubt now, if there
has been since that first year, an
other year in which there were so
many pleasant things and so few
that were unpleasant. We greeted
everything and everybody that
promised we'll for the town, and
had no chickering's and strife. Men
of all classes worked like beavers
thru the day, and at night we sat
around cumming, playing solo,
and planning for the greater things
to come. Rudow, Fullerton, John
son, Moore, Walt Giezentanner,
Ballinger, Sercombe-he was the
first man to start out for strawberry
growing on big scale, and never
had doubt. About a score of us
