tumorous grpattmcnt. THE SUUIRE'S DILEMMA. A justice of the peace in one of the west eDd boroughs issued a warrant for the arrest of a west end woman for slander. Squire S. J. White happened to be present at the hearing. The prosecutor testified that the defendant had called her an "old virago" and that she had added, "I don't know what that means ; hut whatever it is that's what you are." The witness admitted that she did not know what the meaning of the word was, either; but she knew it had no good meaning or the other wouldn't have made use of it. "No matter what it meaos," said the squire, who is an iutensely patriotic American, "it's a foreign name, and she had no business calling you it. I'll fine her for it." "Squire," whispered Squire White in his ear, "you have no jurisdiction in slauder suits. They must be enter ed in court." "Well, I'll bold her for court, then,' the squire declared. "But there's no law under which you can do that." he was told. "Well, I'll hold her anyhow," he replied, "and test the constitutionality of the act." "But there is no act," persisted Squire White. "Get out of this office !" commanded the squire, turning on him. "Do you think I'm going to allow you to come I? L laacn mo tViA lniV 1U UCIO a Liu iLaiu Uiv >.? . "You uns go, too," he said, turning to the women. "You're both released on your own rec-ogg-ni-zance until this court finds out what the darnation tc do with this case."?Pittsburg News, German Epitaphs. ? Continental graveyards are full of quaint and humorous epitaphs, as a citizen of Regensburg?Stahl, by name?can testify, Partly in his own travels, partly by the co-operation of tourists, he has col lected a scrap book full of funeral quips. Here are a few : On a tablet fixed to a mill in Tauferertbal: "In Christian remembrance of , who without human help, lost his life here." In Stubaithal: "The way to all eternity Is not so far, as you may see; He drove away at seven ; At eight he was in Heaven." In Oberinnthal: "Here Jacob Hosenknopf fell From the house roof into eternity." On a gravestone in Herren Island : "Here rests in God, J. K. . Twenty-six years he lived as a human being:, And thirty-seven years as a husband." Over the grave of a woman at the Brenner Pass: "Tears cannot recall her, Therefore I weep." ?Chicago Record. The Return of the Rations.?In the Civil War our soldiers faced privation and hunger. A little story in H. Clay Trumbull's book, "War Memories of a Chaplain," tells of the spirit in which tbey sometimes did it. While before Petersburg doing siege work in the summer of 1864, our men had wormy hard tack served out to them. It was a severe trial to the men. Breaking open the biscuits and finding live worms in them, tbey would throw the pieces in the trenches, although the orders were to keep the trenches clean. A brigade officer ot the day, seeing some of these scraps along our front, called out sharply to our men : "Throw that hard tack out of the trenches." Then, as the men promptly gathered it up, he added, "Don't you know that you've no business to throw hard tack in the trenches?" Out from the injured soldier heart there came the reasonable explanation, "We've thrown it out two or three times, sir, but it crawls back." Character Not Good.?In some rural districts of England there are held annually hiring fairs, where farmers and others attend to engage servants. 'At one held in Gloucestershire last autumn a farmer opened negotiations with a lad who seemed suitable for his purpose. Various questions having been asked and answered, the farmer inquired at last: "Hast got a character from thy last place?" "No," replied the boy, "but my old gaffer be about somewhere, and I can get he to write I one." "Very well," was the reply, "thee get it and meet I here again at 4 o'clock." The time came; so did the farmer and the boy. "Hast got thy character?" was the query. The answer came short and sharp: "No; but I ha' got thine, and I bean t r-coming."?loduou auswcis. The Educated Thief.?"The testimony against you," said the police justice, "is clear and conclusive. You spend your time committing petty thefts." "Yes, your honor," responded the prisoner, venturing to wink at the court. "I am an embodied protest against the existing condition of things. I am a round robin, your honor." But his honor was equal to the emergency. "For the next 60 days, anyhow," he said, frowning at the prisoner, "you won't be around robbin'. You will a be jailbird. Call the nexl case."?Exchange."

A Bad Habit.?Ostensible courtesy has fastened upon civilized people a bad habit, and that is the habit of inquiring for another's health at every meeting. "How have you been?" 1 "How are you today ?" These are the established forms of greeting, and between people of sound nerves it is all right, for the inquiry slips from the [ memory like the proverbial "water ; from a duck's back." But how many of us are of sound nerve ? With the 1 majority of people the inquiry starts a series of reflections that tend to low; er the standard of contentment. It is r strange how adverse the average perr son is to owning up to good health; an ailment of some kind seems to make one so much more interesting?1< give one a claim to so much more con sideration. And so when thequestioi is asked : "How are you ?" the aver age persen immediately begins t search his or her mind for some indis position with which to burden au< dignify the reply.

FILIPINOS TAKE ONE BATTLE. Soldier'8 Letter Tells of an Unimportant En gage ment. Front the Chicago Record. Archie R. Priest, a private in tb< 13th Minnesota regiment, whose horn is in Reedsburg, Wis., wrote the fol lowing letter to his people. It is dut ed at "Bocave, Luzon, P. I., June lc 1899," and reads: UI have been in the hospital a monll with blood poisoning. I was poisouei in the right hand and ear. The doc tors could not tell whether it was froc insect bite or from some plant. The; performed three operations on my bam and one on my ear. I am nearly *wel now and am doiDg duty again. "Well, we have passed through i great deal. We have been 110 mile inland. We lost a major aud a grea many boys. The regiment will b pretty well thinned out by the tim we get home. I had my mind mad up to stay here until I took sick, bu now I am afraid to try it. Great in ducements are being offered us to re enlist, but I cannot hear them. Th> regular army will see some hard fight ing. You do not get half the report of the fighting that is being done Night before last the niggers brok through our lines, killed fifteen am wounded thirty men and captured tw cannons and four men. I bet you wil never hear of it in the States. "I see by the newspaper reports th Filipino army is demoralized. Thii is untrue in every particular. Thei are stronger now than they ever werf They are learning how to shoot am can stand fire better than they did be fore. They .know the country am can live on half of what the American can. We chased thera one hundrei miles and never once came upon tbei main army. They would attack us a night an4 tmbush us in the day time Of course we killed a great mauy mor of them than they did of us, but the; have five men for every rifle. Whei Major Diggles was killed he was lead ing a scouting party and was ambush ed. - The boys made a bard fight am got out all right, but they lost the ma jor all the same. I have got to see tb first man yet to show cold feet. Thi major was very brave. War is so different from the way i is pictured to you. I have seen th fellows go to bed after marching al day, without supper, and about 1 o'clock the outpost would open up The boys would get up and put 01 their belts, never say a word to an; one, fall in line, and in ten minute would be chasing 'niggers' through th jungle. Probably we would go abou two miles, lie down on our rain blank ets and sleep until daylight. The boy are all wishing to get home and out o this. We have done the hard work si far, and the regulars are doing noth ing. Nebraska and Colorado bavi about 500 men left out of 1,300. Alia uesota aud Oregon are not much ?)et ter, but bave lost more by sicknes tbau by battle. Oregon is loading 01 the boat now to go home. We expec to start in August. Montana au< South Dokota bave fought bard and i great deal, but are lucky. They seem to lose more officers than meu. Gen eral Lawton says he would rather losi officers than men, for he can make of ficers out of men, but cannot mak< men. "Our regiment has voted to be mus tered out in San Francisco and go hom< as citizens. It will make a different of about $20 to a man, so it is wortl trying to get. If I do not come witl the regiment you need not think any thing strange. I' may get musteret out here and go to Japan on a line and get a government transport fron there." BOB TAYLOR ON INGERS0LL. "J sat in a great theatre at the na tional capital. It was thronged will youth and beauty, old age and wisdom I saw a man, the image of his God stand up on the stage and I heard bin speak. "His gestures were perfections o grace, his voice was music and his lan guage was more beautiful than any . had ever heard from mortal lips. "He painted picture after pictun of the pleasures and joys and sympa thies of home. He enthroned lovi and preached the gospel of humanity like an angel. Then I saw him dij his brush in the ink of moral blacknesi and blot out the beautiful pictures hi bad painted. I saw him stab lov< dead at his feet. I saw him blot ou the stars and the sua and leave bu manity and the universe in eterna darkness and eternal death. "I saw him, like the serpent of old worm himself into the paradise of hu man hearts and by his seductive elo quence and subtle devices and sophis try inject his fatal venom, under whos< light its powers faded. Its music wa hushed, its sunshine was darkenec and its soul was left a desert wasti with only the new made graves of fait! and hope. "I saw him, like a lawless, errati< meteor, without an orbit, sweep acros; the intellectual sky, brilliant only it its self-consuming fire generated friction with the indestructible ant eternal truths of God. "That man was the archangel o modern infidelity, and I said, how'trui is Holy Writ, which declared 'Th< fool has said in his heart, there is n< God.' "Tell me not, oh infidel, there is n< God, no heaven, no hell! Tell m< 0 not, oh, infidel there is no risen Christ! "What intelligence less than God's 1 could fashion the human body ? What - motive power is it, if not God, that 0 drives the throbbing engine of the hui man heart, with ceaseless, tireless 1 stroke, sending the crimson stream oi life bounding and circling through t every vein and artery? t "Whence and what, if not of God, 3 is this mystery we call mind? What is [i it that thiuks and feels and knows and acts? Oh, who can deny the divinity that stirs within us ? "God is everywhere and everything. His mystery is in every bud and blossom and leaf and tree; in every rock '* and bill and vale and mountain ; in every spring and rivulet and river. "The rustle of his wing is in every e zephyr; its might is in every tempest, e He dwells in the dark pavilion of ev ery storm cloud. The lightning is his messenger and the thunder is his i, voice.

Side-glancing eyes are always to be distrusted. e Brown eyes are said by oculists to be the strongest. 8 Small eyes are commonly supposed !* to indicate cunning. ? The downcast eye has in all ages been typical of modesty. 0 The nrnnsp distance between the i *-v r ~r? eyes is the width of one eye. People of the melancholic temperae ment rarely have clear blue eyes. 8 Eyes with long, sharp corners indif cate great discernment and penetration. The white of the eye showing be,* neath the iris is indicative of nobility of character. 8 When the upper lid covers half oi more of the pupil the indication is cool r deliberation. Unsteady eyes, rapidly jerking from !* side to .side, are frequently indicative ? of an unsettled mind. ? Gray eyes turning green in anger or a excitement are indicative of a choleric temperament. An eye the upper lid of which passes horizontally across the pupil indicates '* mental ability. e It is said that the prevailing colors e Pf eyes among patients of lunatic asylums are brown and black. 1 Eyes of any color with weak brows ? and long, concave lasbes are indicative j! of a weak constitution. Eyes of which the whole of the iris * ' *L1 - L -1 norcnnQ f?f IS Visioie ueiuug lu choi.^ 3 ten with a tendency toward insanity. ^ Eyes that are wide apart are said 9 by physiognomists to indicate great 9 intelligence and a tenacious memory. Eyes placed close together in the head are said to indicate a pettiness ol 9 disposition, jealousy and a turn for fault-finding. 0 Wide-open eyes, staring eyes in weak countenances indicate jealousy, bigo9 try, intolerance and pertinacity without firmness. When the uuder arch of the upper 9 eyelid is a perfect semi-circle it is india cative of goodness, but also of timidi. ty, sometimes approaching cowardice. All men of genius are said to have d eyes clear, slow moving and bright. 1 This is the eye which indicates mental ability of some kind, it doesn't . matter what. Blue eyes are generally considered i effeminate ; but this is a mistake, for blue eyes are found only among Caucasian nations, and the white races e rule the world. K ] MILLIONS HAVE HEARD HIM. - Bryan Thought to Hold the Record For 1 Making Speeches. r From the Washington Post. 3 Some gentlemen were discussing at a well known hotel the question of what orator of ancient or modern times had first and last spoken to the - greatest number of human beings. A i great many names were suggested, but . finally it was ageeed that more people , bad listened to the sound of William i Jennings Bryan's voice than to any other man whoever talked to thepubf lie. "I do not think," said Mr. P. L. [ Irvine, of New York, "that there is any doubt of Bryan's primacy in this i regard. We know that famous speak. ers among the ancients, orators of the 3 class of Cicero and Demosthenes, talk/ ed to vast crowds, but we have onty to j reflect upon the paucity of transporta3 tion facilities in those days to realize 3 that they addressed practically the 3 same audiences all the time. Their t gatherings were local. "Mr. Bryan, in 1896 and since, has 1 traversed every part of the United States, and has spoken in the aggre, gate to millions of bis countrymen. Major McKinley, it will beremember. ed, stayed at his home during the cam. paign, and his speeches were limited 3 to visiting delegations, iseimer ueeuu3 er, Ingersoll nor Talmage, with their i long years of platform oratory, could 3 have addressed a total of hearers anyi thing like as large as the numbers that crowded about the Nebraskan. ; Neither Webster, Clay, nor Calhoun 3 ncr Douglass, despite the length of i their public careers, ever spoke to f such multitudes. And the wonderful ] part of it is, that the man will, in all probability, duplicate his past expef rience in this line before he retires to 3 absolute privacy." 3 ? ? ) Increasing Demand For Horses. With horse buyers from Wisconsin, ) Minnesota and the Dakotas scouring 3 the ranges of Oregon and Washington, and paying from $15 up for animal which two or three years ago wer considered fit only for the abattoir r where they sold for $1.50 and $2 pe head, it is apparent the advent of tb< i horseless age has been postponed. S< r great is the demand for heavy worl horses, and animals suitable for th cavalry service, that it is impossible t< , meet it with the class of animals re i quired and buyers are filling out or ders in some cases with unbrokei range horses, for which as high as $4' per head has been paid. Governmen i ?? (am itoqw aorn were won UUJCI 3j WUU a 1U rr jvw.w to cull closely and reject everythini that did not meet the exact require ments, have been compelled to waivi some of the specifications, or else fai to secure the full quota of animal needed. There is also a steady demand fo 1 fast harness horses.
