PUT ONE OVER ON DINGLEY
Kansas Representative Marked Up
Distinctive "Seore" on Famous
Statesman From Maine.

The famous Jerry Simpson, POpulIst
representative In congress from Kan
sas, took delight in turning the laugh
upon Representative Dingley, espe-
cially on something related to the
tariff. One day the Kansan walked
down the aisle on the Republican side
of the house, peered into Dingley's
silk hat, which was reposing on his
desk as sign that no business Of
importance was expected to come up,
and went to his seat. A little later
he obtained the floor. He spoke of
Dingley's Views on protection. But"
he went on, "the gentleman from Maine
does not practice what he breaches.
There's that hat, which has become
barometer in the house. That hat was
made by the pauper labor Of Europe.
1t bears the firm name of London
concern. / was amazed when | acct
dentally saw that English trademark.
The makers of that hat claim to be
purveyors Of hats to royalty"
Dlngleys explanation that he had
not inquired the make of the hat
but had merely taken one that fitted
him, only added to the hilarlty Of the
occasion.

Africa Is a continent practically with

Is generally low and has at different
times been covered by the sea. But
the southern peninsula, the true dark

around It's coasts the shores rise steep
