Man and His Wavs.

One day well-known politician was
enjoying chat with a friend at ho-
tel, when a strange young man came
up and said:
"Can see you for a moment, Mr..
Dash?"
Certainly" said Mr.. Dash, rising.
The young man led him across the
room and seemed to have something
important to say to him. Arrived in
corner, the stranger whispered in
the politicians ear:
II am Of the staff Of an evening
paper, and l should like you to tell
me what you think Of the situation In
the east"
Mr.. Dash looked little puzzled al
first, then he said:
Follow me-"
Leading the way, he walked through

into the dining-room, and drawing his
visitor into the corner behind the hal
rack, he whispered:

KEEPS OUT OF WATER NOW
Gander With Fishing Line Tied TO
His Leg Has Lively Time
With PlckereI.

A Wisconsin gander was so upset
by experiments made upon and
through him by a mischievous boy
that Tor a long time he would not 60

The gander's determination to alb

The boy thought he would tie a fish.

The gander went into the mill pond,
where he swan around for half an
hour, turning "flip-haps" and diving
for food Suddenly he felt a pull at
his leg and looked as surprised as the
lone fisherman" when he caught a
whale.
The gander concluded that there
was something the matter. and he
looked to ascertain the cause. The
pickerel on the hook gave several
jerks, whereupon the gander decided
that he wanted to go home.
He at once started for the shore,
but the pickerel on the hook wanted
to go the other way. The gander
seemed frightened at first. Then he
evinced signs of anger and tried to
fly to shore, but the pickerel pulled
him back.
After half an hour Of the hardest
work he had ever done, the gander
came ashore dragging a six-pound
pickerel up the bank.
The boy took off the pickerel and
baited the hook with another frog. He
tried to induce the gander to go in
for another swim, but no amount OF
persuasion could get the bird to do So
He simply could not be driven in. For
many weeks the gander would not go
into the water. He would proceed
with the rest of his flock to the wa
ter's edge, but there he would stop
He would seem to be arguing with
them with reference to the danger

very painful. A hard lump was found
under the skin just above the elbow,
and this was pressed on the funny
nerve that runs behind the elbow.
The lump felt so queer and unusual
that the surgeon took an X-ray shot
at it and found 1t to be big ruby
about five carats.
This Is the novel story of a mar

Troops Act as Escort.
Fredericks body was conveyed from
the Hamburg Hof hotel to the railway
station with full military honors. A
company of the Seventh Imperial Ger
man infantry had been provided fol
an escort and the soldiers were accom-
panied by the regimental band. The
troops carried cased colors OF the
regiment in honor of the dead. The
streets were lined with solid masses

heads as the cortege passed.

declared extinct a search revealed doc

authorities did not know it, was one oi

him as an incognito.
The instant that the queen entered
the barely furnished ward she recog

band, and in paroxysm OF grief
threw herself across the cot on which
the body lay.
Physicians hastened to her side and
she was led, sobbing. from the room

she became more calm she ordered
