was talking about charity.
1.-THE trouble with most charity he
said, us that it is administered in a
g%rudging, condescending spirit.
Charity, to have any effect, must be
administered in a Spirit of absolute
sympathy spirit, I may almost say,
OF absolute humility. To uplift, get.
underneath as the philosophic Ade
well said.
"There was once a London lady; the
wife of a promoter, who decided, be-
ing rather bored, to go in for charity.
So she rang for her electric brougham
and glided in a luxurious silence down
to the New Cut.
"The lady selected the very weCst
house in the New Cut, and she paid a
call of about half an hour on the poor,
tired, underfed woman who lived there.
The questions she asked this woman
we're supercilious and impairment. The
lady had a very good time.
But, when she came to 70, hsr
hostess, whose cheeks were now ua-
wontedly red, rather spoiled her good
time by saying quietly:
well. sood-by, madame. I don't
suppose I'll see you again. The fact
Is, 7 haven't time to &c Summing
myself" :

he was not wanted. But one day re-
Gently the 'bore'' met his Waterloo
through his inquisitiveness.
Several men had been arrested for
selling cocaine. The captain had a
quantity of the rug for evidence and

And the captain is no longer bored.
THE plight hat Allison NJ. MacFar-

writing letters to a girl and also keep

Taylor, clerk of the Supreme Court,
yesterday, reminds me of the story
of a prominent New York city judge,
whose son became infatuated with an
actress and wrote her many %endearing
letters.
Then he broke with her, and she
started suit for breach of promise. The
son went to his father IND asked him
what to do. Settle with her as

III F the emergency should Justify it 10000 troops will be modified
on the Texas frontier to guard it and be ready for possible
intervention. Orders to that effect issued yesterday from the
war department show that the government regards the situation
as even more serious in its possibilities than that of last summer.
Not since the Civil War has there been an army mobilization in
the United States to compare with that which is projected, and if
the marching orders are issued it will be a real and formidable
army that will be assembled on Texas soil. If the necessity for
intervention shall arise the first expeditionary force will have to
be equal TO $4,000 men, for it must cover a wide area of territory.
If a march on the Mexican capital should be made another 10000
troops, consisting of the National Guard. would have to be called
out to occupy the border and garrison the towns in Chihuahua. So
there is a prospect of active service for our militia, too,
