A prominent minstrel man says that
not long ago an attache of his show
was sent out in certain town to give
some handbills or heralds to boys for
distribution. The man found only one
boy willing to work. He didn't deem
it necessary to explain to the boy that
the bills were to be distributed about
town. He took 1t for granted that the
boy knew. The youngster took the
printed slips of paper, and the man
gave him quarter and left. Half an
hour later the Snowman CHANGED to
pass along the street and saw the boy
standing on the sidewalk, crying.
whats the matter?' asked the man.
The boy gave couple of final sobs
and, wiping his eyes on his sleeve,
said:

VIRGINIA IS FESTIVE
Taft May Lose Delegation to

not get the vote of the Virginia dele
cation in Republican national conven-
ton after all.
Charging that the election and in
struction of delegates from the Second
Virginia district to the national Re-
publican convention was Brought
about by the district bosses and at
time designated by authority from
the White House" before definite op-
position to President Taft had devel.
oped, a committee from the John Mar.
shall Republican club OF Norfolk in an
omen letter called upon d Lawrence
Groner and p, J Riley. Second district
delegates. to disregard their Taft in.
structions.
Similar requests to delegates from
all Virginia districts will be made and
because OF the desire of a good many
politicians to get on the band wagon,
there is considerable unrest in the Re-
publican party The result, it Is gen
orally believed. will be a mad scamper
for the Roosevelt banner at Chicago.

PATRIOTIC EXERCISES.

The patriotic exercises in the Mineral
Point public schools on Friday were
well attended by veterans, members of
the Woman's Relief Corps, and other
visitors These exercises were truly
inspiring and We're enjoyed by old and
young. There were pleasing rectations
by pupils, and the musical parts were
all that could have been desired. In
the high school room, in the afternoon,
the words of welcome by Superinten-
dent Loveland were briefly responded to
by G, &. Cox for the Post. and by Mrs
Eden Jacobs for the Corps, and their
remarks showed that the hearty wei
come accorded the visitors was duly ap.
ciated. Many of the recitations were by
the younger pupils from the grades,
and all acquitted themselves in very
creditable manner, and seemed to
rightly interpret the purposes of the
occasion.

Green Scum of the Nile.

mile green is an opaque green" said
a traveller. 1T isn't the green of a
wave breaking in the sun. It's the
green of the scum that floats on duck
ponds. Every year about the middle
of April the Nile becomes covered with
a green scum, Il genuine duck pond
scum 1t strikes Khartum about April
20, and it floats on down to Cairo-a
solid scum that is often 500 miles long
without Il break This scum is made
of minute lives, algae. 1t has an Of
fensive smell. 1t is, in fact, as of
fensive to the nose as to the eye. How
green the Nile is then! On account OF
this scum the expression. Nile green,
arose. But it isn't the waters of the
Nile that are green. No; they are al
ways muddy. 1t is the scum"
