palladium Specially

New York, Jan. 2O.-There is a
boy in this town who deserves to be
made an honorary member of the An
anias club. The other day his mother
permitted him to visit some of his
school friends living at some distance
from his home. He was ordered to
return at certain hour, but did not
come home until several hours after
the time fixed. When the promising
youngster all out of breath, reached
his home, he informed his anxious
mother that he had been kidnapped
by a big man with big whiskers and
that after a desperate fight the kid
napper was overcome by brave po-
liceman. who took the man and his
intended victim to the station. So
chilly did the boy tell his story and
with SO much realistic detail, that his
fond mother became almost hysterical
as the account progressed and the boy
had to ask her to be calm and strong
while he finished his yarn. When his
mother, an hour later discovered that
her sons story was pure fiction and
had been invented by him on the spur
of the moment to give an excuse for
his disobedience. she had another
strictly private interview with her
promising offspring. Once more she
was considerably excited, but this
be strong.
Boys. as general rule, are belli-
gerent lot and the street urchins who
make living for themselves, and,
sometimes, for their folk at home, by
selling newspapers on the streets. are
by no means an exception to the rule.
At least, there is no record of any
newsboy who had become so angelic
as to give in rather than fight. Scraps
are of such frequent occurrence
among the newsboys that it has been
suggested to follow the example of the
newsboys of Boston and to establish
a court of arbitration for the settle
ment of al minor disputes between
the boys. In Boston the three judges
of the court of arbitration are men,
bers of the newsboys' guild, elected
ANNUALLY OS AcllOW ue1uOeES dl
a regular election. The plan of es-
tablishing similar court in this city
is now being canvassed among the
newsboys.
There was an odd and interesting
sight the other night at the Hotel As
tor. when more than a hundred deaf
mutes from all over the country met
In the big banquet hall to celebrate
the twenty-fifth anniversary of the
founding Of their league by four grad
yates Of the Institution for the Inn

which untn ten years ago stood up
on the site Of the present Hotel Aston.
Many OF the members Of the league
are prominent business men and are
enjoying considerable prosperity. The
gathering was fhe most silent ever

Some Gossip Gathered From
The Gay American Metropolis

held in that banquet hall. Not an
audible word was spoken during or
after the feast, but many speeches in
the sign language were delivered and
the feasters evidently appreciated
them and gave expression to their joy
and cheerfulness by gay and musical
laughter, clapping of their hands and
similar actions. The walters were
somewhat puzzled at first and did not
exactly know what to do in such an
unusual; case. 1t was funny to see
them tiptoe around the hall and whis-
per questions to the guests, without
realizing that the men and women
around the festive board could hear
neither their footsteps nor their ques

Letter to I. v. ShaCkeIfOrd.
Jefferson. Texas.

Dear Sir: This happe n e d
seven years ago. A man, having
three little poultry houses,
bought one gallon each of two
paints to paint them; paid SLIGO
for one and Sl.75 for the other,
Is cents difference.
The SLIGO gallon painted one
house, the Sl.75 gallon painted
the other two houses. The cost
of paint was: first house 81 60
second house 81 | &c; third house
81 l-2c.
But painting goes with paint,
and it costs as much TO paint
with one paint as another, about
SO so a gallon.
The painting of one of those
houses with 81 go paint cost the
same as that of the other two
with S1.75 paint; $3.50. Differ
