TNElE late Mayor Warwick told me. after
he retired from office, how he once re-
ceiyed what he described as the surprise of
his life. Not every one who seeks an inter =
view with the chief executive of PHILADELPHIA
is in search of preferment.
In the wide circle of the Mayors ac-
quaintance was a gentleman. manufac-
turer. who resided within twenty five miles
of the city. He was educated, refined very
wealthy companionable and model man in
the community.
The Mayor had not met him for months
when one morning, few moments after en-
tering his Office at City Hall. the name of
the gentleman was announced Warwick
fancied that he had come to urge the claim
for the appointment of some friend
When he entered Mr.. Warwick noticed
that it was with marked hesitation and a
subdued manner.
Charlie, I'm sorry to bother you. but the
fact is I've a big favor to ask" announced
the visitor in an abashed way.
''What is it, old man. asked the Mayor
encouragngly.
81 know you'll excuse me when promise
never to trouble you again on such a visit -
he went on, abjectly apologetic.
$50 ahead, anything I can I'll do for
you'' said Warwick.

man in the city l feel / can come to. I was
out last night and got pretty badly shot up.

bracers and pay my railroad fare out home. -
He further disclosed the fact that hotel
clerk was even then in the Mayors recep
tion room waiting for the money They
wouldn't trust him, for he had resorted Ia
an assumed name. The gentleman could
have had 500 for the asking. But he got

Nothing is more perpleXing in this unques-

Dickens was an il-natured. selfish cad

there was no gentleman in New York. be-

THE CHAFF7NG DISH

since the Centennial, we suppose, is trying
hard to push itself through the glass roof
it is easy to imagine ones self in the heart
of a tropical forest In very cold weather
the condensation from the cold glass panes
above drips down with soft, occasional
spatter, giving the exact effect of a woodland
after heavy rain. One walks about, hear
ing now and then distant chirp from some
surprised sparrow that has slipped in on a
warm day when the tranSomS were open, and
is lurking in the upper branches not quite
sure what has happened to the Philadelphia
climate We fear he will perish of pneu-
monia when he gets out again.
The afternoon sunlight sants in through
the glass roof, shining among the strange
fans and glossy leaves of the palms and
rubber trees. Admiring draEcdriG BidcWu
and rdUenalG MddagaScdrienSiS and the rat
tan palm (from which one would like to steal
walking stick and listening to the tinkle
of moisture down through the sun gildcd
jungle of strange foliage and netted ferns, it
seems curously as though some heavy
thunderstorm had just passed over. One tries
to imagine what a tropical gale must be like
with all those huge fronds thrashing and
fiattenng under the heavy crash of rain
Queer little marble statues appear here and
there among the trees, and the familiar
figures of Diana and her stag in pink Doulton
pottery at one end of the hall. The stag
prancing forelegs have been broken and care
fully cemented on again.
Up in the gallery one looks down on all
the steaming tangle of growth. 1t looks like
IA miniature Garden of Eden Benumbed
skaters come in TO thraw their noses and
fingers. And in the gallery. lurking behind
the thick boskage of the giant rubber tree,
hardy sailors have found Edenlike privacy
for little muttered wooing.
