July 2.?No fight on Dr. J. W. Babcock, as superintendent, was made at the meeting of the board of regents of the State Hospital for the Insane here yesterday, and the expected shakeup in the personnel of the staff dwindled down fr* fnnr olionooa meeting of the board was without a ripple to disturb the placid surface and the report of opposition to Dr. Babcock did not appear. Three changes were made in the personnel of the medical staff and a new chaplain was chosen. Dr. W. E. Fulmer, Columbia, was elected fourth assistant physician, succeeding Dr. E. Y. Pope, Columbia; Dr. L. L. Toole, Columbia, a dentist, was elected in the place of Dr. F. S. Killingsworth, Columbia; Dr. R. G.

Griffln, were re-elected first, second and third assistant physicians respectively. The only resolution adopted by the board was one providing that the chaplain shall nreach to the in mates of the asylum twice each Sunday, and that he shall be subject to the call of the superintendent at any time. According to a resolution of the board adopted at a previous meeting all employes of the Institution who are connected with the asylum farm will be elected at a meeting In December next.

The editor of a great magazine senfc for a certain author who had submitted an unsolicited manuscript. "I am glad to make your acquaintance, sir," said the editor, enthusiastically. "The story you sent is perfectly splendid. But why use a uom de plume? Let us publish it over your own name and it tit 111 mnkn i?/\ti " mil mane J uu lclUIUUR. "I'm not after fame," objected the author. "It's money I want." "But you'll get Just as much money in either case." "No, I won't. If I publish it over my own name, my wife will get the money." Bound by Poverty. Lippincott's. A negro with a bad cut in his head came to a doctor. The doctor fixed him up, and, as the man was about to depart, the physician said: "That's a pretty bad cut in your head. Henry.

"Well, I should like to, doctor," replied Henry sadly, "but I ain't got no money to git er divorce, you Who IjauRtiN liAst. New York Globe.

London, July 2.?Two hundred and flifty thousand dollars and all of the costs of the suit is the price the Marquis of Northampton has agreed to pay to settle the suit for breach of promise brought against him by the actress, Miss Daisy Markham, whose real name is Violet Moss. The costs will amount to a considerable sum on account of the number of distinguished counsel engaged to plead for the opposing par ties. The marquis, better known as Earl Compton only recently succeeded to the title at the age of 27. The plaintiff is well known both in America and the British Isles under her stage name. The settlement was announced when the case was called in the high court of Justice this morning in a court room crowded with fashionable women actresses who had come in anticipation of listening to some interesting evidence. The young marquis had previously offered $50,000 to settle the case, and many people had thought Miss j Markham unwise not to accept the offer. When Miss Mark,ham insisted on proceeding with the suit London gossips anticipated that she had a sensational story to tell, and interest in the suit rose accordingly. The damages paid today are the heaviest for many years in a breach of promise suit. Mixers. Rochester Post Express. How often we have to go back to the beloved and venerable Hebrew classic for the origin of present-day phrases and ideas as human nature changes so slowly that anything true of one man then is true of some man now and anything true of the race as a whole in 900 B. C. is not very far out of the way in 1900 A. 1). Situations change, but the response of the individual thereto is about what it always was. Now there was that historical character of whom the son of Beeri said that 4'he mixed himself among the people and is a cake not turned." We may, if we like, under| stand that to mean that he tried to be a mixer and went out among the I voters to obtain their favor and support. That he failed in this is clearly indicated, for the statement that he was a cake not turned may be taken to mean either that he was | what is modernly called "half! baked," of that his cake, when he had got through his attempt at mixing, was all dough. The fact appears to be that successful mixers were born in that day as in this, and that some men, however good their will to mix, help themselves by going out among the 1 people. Governor Hughes, for example, helped himself immensely by his tour of the state and went back to Albany with a tractable legislature in his pocket. Governor Sulzer, on the other hand, goes back to find his legislature more hostile than it was before. The ability to mix is a gift, a congenial endowment, which can be cultivated somewhat, no doubt, but cannot be created where it does not exist. Many Engines Save The District. New Yory, July 2.?On one of the hottest mornings of the summer the city's firemen fought early today the hottest fire they think they ever encountered. The big slaughter house of J. Stem & son, covering nearly a whole block on 4th street, was destroyed that 25 engines were called to save the district. The lossis $100,000. Had He Failed? Youth's Companion. "I have fuHed in almost everything I ever undertook. I hope that none of my children will have to make such a confession." Thus spoke an aged man not long before his death. 1 In youth he wished to be a minister but could not get the necessary education. A severe case of pneumonia left him subject to hemorrhages, and he was thought to have consumption. But he wandered out into the fields, gathering herbs for his own use or that of his neighbors; and whether the herbs did him good or not, the outdoor life certainly did. He studied medicine with the local physican, and became a doctor but he could not endure the long, cold rides inseDarable from n frnm. try practice. So he set up as a druggist In the hope of finding some time to Rtudy for the ministry; but he had to give up that hope, for his business proved exacting. Still, he taught in the Sunday school, often led religious services and officiated at funerals. When he opened his drug store, although he abandoned medical practice he gave his services freely to the poor. He trusted every one, often to his hurt. After the Civil War he suffered from the fall in prices that culminated in the panic of 1873. Goods had flrRt to be marked down, and then to be thrown away. He could not collect his bills; his debts accumulated. He lost his store, his business, even his home. Then he met with an accident that almost cost him his life. He toiled bravely on a new house, only to have it wrecked by a tornado. That night he and his family sat amid the debris in the cellar; the pitiless rain beat upon them, and the blackness was cut by blades H f Hchfnlnnr 1 n?^?wiis m ?i HineiimiMi noilling but disaster. It seemed to him that his every hope blossomed only to be crushed. Nevertheless, this man, refusing any compromise, assumed the whole burden of his debts, and dollar by dollar he began to pay them. Ills children not only worked their way through college, but were able to help him a little. In a measure he FHE LANCASTER NEW1 recovered his health, and slowly b "surely he reduced the hurden of 1 debts. llut youth and hope wc gone; be was an old and disappoii ed man.
