WARM REEUKE FUa SARCASM
Western Senator Who Made Many En-.
emies>Was Given Good Advise by
Friend.

For many years there served In the
United States senate, from the west,
a man of brilliant mind and fine quail
ties. BIT, who was forever estrIng.na
many with whom he desired TO be
friendly by reason Of his incurably sar-
castle manner both of speech aud &C.
ton.
Once an intimate friend wrote the
senator urging the appointment of an
other friend to a minor position in the
government. The senator returned a
most sarcastic reply. declining to rec
ommend the appointment 1t Is said
that he never forgot the merited re-
buke he received from the friend who
bad suggested the appointment.
my Dear Senator: think 1t would
be well for you to reserve your sar-
casm for the rapidly increasing num-
Der of your enemies. instead of Offer
ing it to the decreasing number Of
your friends, of whom am one."

lure Of the Author.

One wonders why Sc many novels
are written. Yet consider the state
ment just made by the managers OF
the play adapted from "Ben-Hur."
They have paid s250,O0O in royalties
to the estate of its author and expect
to pay much more before the public
tires OF 1t. The book itself has had
a sale OF over a million copies. never
In a cheap form, and has probably
earned another quarter Of a million
for the author.
Mrs. Wigs Of the Cabbage Patch"
a little book Of only 10000 words. has
paid to its author as book and play
about $40 word. and David Harum"
produced fortune for the heirs Of
the man who wrote 1t. Aside from
the glory Of satisfaction. every novel
list, whether man or woman, is expect
ing to create some day q "Ben-Hur'
or David Harum."

PREDECESSORS OF CAPT. LUX
and Others Have Escaped From
Prisons In Germany.

About a dozen precedents for the
escape of Captain Lux from his Ger
man prison can be found in the his
tory of the Franco-German war. and
a large proportion of the heroes of
them lived to become famous.
A notable case was that of General
(then coloneD Saussier, ultimately
commander-in-chief of the French
army, who was detained at Grandens,
in the extreme east of Prussia. It is
said that he put his bolster to bed in
stead of himself, hid in an obscure
corner of the fortress until nightfall,
and then, having obtained dis
guise by the help OF his orderly, was
allowed to walk out of the main
prison gate.
He crossed the frontier to Poland
and returned to France by way Of
Austria and Italy.
General Zurlinden was another pris-
oner who got out of his prison at
Glogan In Silesia, on Christmas eve.
He made his way in disguise through
Berlin, Frankfort and Karlsruhe to
Basel, feast which was not difficult
for him, as, being an Alsatian, he
spoke German quite as we'll as his
jailers.
Thirdly, we may note the expert
ences Of M. Paul Deroulede. who es-
capped from Breslau, and 1t is piquant
to recall that that vehement anti
Semitic did not disdain to disguise
himself as a Polish Jew. He was very
nearly betrayed by peasant whom
he had bribed to guide him into Bo-
hemia; but he drew his knife with u
ferocious gesture and the peasant
changed his mind, with the result
that M. Deroulede saw the final fights
of the war as a sub-lieutenant of Tur-
cos.

Snake Had Lived on Eggs.

On his morning round for eggs re-
Gently. Michael Heiseman OF Custice,
o., reached into hens nest and
touched an object that made him
jump back quickly. A closer examin-
alton showed big spotted snake
coiled in the nest. Beating hasty re-
treat, Heiseman secured a shotgun
and on reaching the nest noticed that
the snake had swallowed china nest
egg and was gradually working It
down it's throat. 1t was but the work
of a moment to blow off the head OF
the reptile. Heiseman then recalled
the fact that his egg supply had de-
clined recently, and he thinks that the
snake, with perhaps Its mate, had
been making forays on the roost for
some time.

CHILDREN A RECENT FIND
Not Before the Nineteenth Century
Were They TruthfuIly Portrayed
In Literature.

Children were only found yesterday.
Before the nineteenth century the
child mind and the child heart were
DOT supposed to have enough in them
to interest the majestic adult. 1t is
true that you find delightful baby in
Homer; that In Virgil there is the
prettiest glimpse Of little girl, and up
and down In the classics you may
meet half dozen other pleasant
shadows of children. But they are
only shadows, only at the most charm
ing pictures. They give you much
as II they were painting or sculpture
for In children's bodies art has always
had interest enough-only what a
child looks like, the pretty weakness,
the instinct for play, the naive ges-
ture and movement. Not till the re
turn to nature" not till the spirit OF
romance moved on the waters at the
end of the eighteenth century, do you
find poets beginning to tell OF the
thought and faith in child's mind.
the mysteries of the child's heart, the
fancies that are dreams and the fam
cies that are visions. You may think
that they have gone too far, that they
read into childhood the laborioas phil
osophiZing and sometimes the labored
sentiment&l!ty o. the adGlt. But no
one who loves children Will deny that
the best of the children in nineteenth
century books have ia" richer real
ity, far fuller lite than any that were
born In early works, And some of
the best are in Dickens.-London Tel
egraph.

He remembered Roses words: We
all got to pay. You as we'll as me
We all got to share" He WINGED at
He was suffering with a pain that
reached to his very heart and wrung
1t as hand wrings the water from a
sponge.
He wondered how he could avoid
making the speech that night He
read parts of it, and especially: "Suc-

of your brain. But REMAINDER this.
there is only one success that is worth
having, and that is the success won
through honesty. For he who leaves
the path and enters into the thickets
of hypocrisy and deception and
wrong-doing is damned" And this
was what he was preaching to these
young people about to start life! He
wondered if he could avoid delivering
1T by pleading illness? But then peo-
with it, He could not afford 10 have
any more questions asked.
The light faded and darkness fell

The light was dim but the child

voice. Papa Ezra!" he cried, greet
ing him In his clear, childish treble.
Through the darkness, the two men
tried to read the others eyes. But,
long ago, Ezra had advanced Jim
West enough money to buy the hotel
and, only lately, the town, through
some unknown influence, had not
voted prohibition when every sign
pointed that way. So Jim reached out
his hand for Eben's. You can count

huskily.

cried Ezra, but the other had van

So he carried the boy into his Office
and sat there in the dark with him
on his lap.
What do you want, Little Boy?"
he asked.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1912-03-06

his own from whom to learn, none OF
his own except Little Boy. Suddenly
he remembered that as long as Rose
lived he could not call even Little
Boy his own. He forgot the two
women and struck the desk with his
clenched fist.
At their frightened exclamation he
looked up and said bruskly; "Ill think
it over, ladies.
They glanced at each other, seeking
courage for further persuasion. FL
nally, Miss Lansing spoke again: IF
you could tell us-we wish TO an
nounce it"
He nodded every we'll"
So with embarrassed thanks and
good-days they edged out.
After they had gone, the man sat
at his desk, his hands folded gazing
straight into vacancy. He was think
ing of Little Boy. He remembered
how he had taught him to say, Papa
Ezra almost as soon as he could
talk at all. And he felt the touch OF
the small, soft hands travelling over
his rough face as he held him in his
arms, with the boy smiling at him
with round open mouth and round
open eyes, Presently he bent over and
laid his head on his elasped hands
His eyes were hot and dry but his
breath came in long, rasping sobs
that were hard to stifie. So he re-
NAMED for long while.
For two weeks Ezra Benton did not
visit the house at the foot o. the hill
The chief reason was because he was
afraid After the long secrecy of
years, a whisper at last seemed to
steal around the village-a whisper
that connected his name with that of
Rose. Nothing tangible was said; the
names were not mentioned; it was
like vapor arising from marsh at
nightfall. Men whispered to one an
other of having seen a dark figure on
the road ia Roses house late at night
That was all! But the whispers
reached Ezra's ears. And he trem-
bled.
For, strong man that he was, his
great pride was his position and the
respect which men paid him. For
this position had been the result of
continuous, unrelenting struggle, For
it he had sacrificed the pleasures and
joys of other men-home, love, chill
dren, friendships! He knew he must
be careful. So he did not venture
near Rose And meanwhile, the de-
sire for Little Boy-his little boy
was worrying him as salt worries an
open wouad.
The nlispering increased. Ezra
wondered If his wife had said any
thing-his wife whom he despised but
who held him in her power.
Across the dinner table one night,
he regarded her with heavy, sneering
eyes. Have you said anything of my
absences at night to start this talk?''
he asked.
She, thin, fat-breasted woman,
laughed at him. do you think |
want to parade my shame?" she said
coldly.
The day which was to end with the
commencement exercises arrived. Ezra

disfgured In the cruel work of the
mines. But this was long before Lit
tie Boy saw the light of this world,
for which Ezra Benton gave many
thanks-but that was afterwards.
He, the banker of Pont du Lac, the
collar of his shaggy frieze coat pulled
up around his ears. the brim Of his
wide felt hat down over his eyes,
stumbled along the steep and rain
broken road that led to the foot O. the
hill. He was a brute, this Ezra Ben
ton. He was not so tall, but broad
and of thick heayiness that in his
youth had earned him the title of 1.-The
Bull" The determination which had
made him the richest and most re-
spected man in that North Country
township showed plainly in his square.
J hard face.
1t was black night and close on
towards midnight. He stumbled as he
walked and swore as he stumbled. But
his thoughts were not on his plodding.
Nor did they precede him to his desti-
nation. He thought of his wife.
She knows what takes me out o.
nights" he said, staring with fixed,
