Resemblance Was There.
Professor Barry once amused Judge
all by an application on behalf of a
man who was a dealer in horses and
sugar sticks. The incongruity of his
vocations struck the judge, who remarked:
"What a strange combination
of trades."
**l see a close recemblance between
horses and sugar stick," said the witty
barrister.
44Ih what way?" inquired his lordflkip.
"The more you lick them the faster
<hey go," was the reply.

"Passed All Understanding."
Lord Yelverton, chief baron of th<
exchequer in Ireland, once went on {
Lent circuit, and one of the Assiz*
towns happened to be a place of whicl
one of his college contemporaries hel(
the living. At -his own request, thi
chief baron's reverend, friend preache<
the Assize sermon.
The time being the month of March
| the weather was cold, the judge wai
i >chilled, and unhappily the sermoi
was long and the preacher descende<
from the pulpit and approached th<
judge, smirking and smiling, looking
fully satisfied with his own exertions
and expecting to receive the compli
ments and congratulations of his quon
dam chum.
"Well, my lord," he asked, "and hov
did you like the sermon?"
"Oh, most wonderfully," replied Yel
verton. "It was like the peace o
God?it passed all understanding
and?like his mercy?I thought i
would have endured for ever."
By Deputy.
At a village church a wedding wa:
fixed for a certain day. The happ]
morn arrived, and in due course i
youthful swain and a buxom damse
presented themselves at the chance
steps.
The service proceeded smoothly as
far as the question, "Wilt thou hav<
this woman to be thy wedded wife?'
upon which the supposed bridegroom
instead of responding, stammered
,m blushingly:
"Please, sir, I'm not the right man
I don't want to get married!"
"Not the right man!" exclaimed th<
clergyman, aghast. "Then where is
the right man?"
"He's down in the back seat of th<
church, sir. He's too shy to corns
up!"

BULGARIAN DOPS
REPULSE HIS
REPORT DESPERATE FIGHTING
IN PROGRESS JUST NORTH '
OF SOLONIKA.
SREEKS ARE THREATENED
\ Special Dispatch to London Tells
of a Most Disgraceful Incident at
Belgrade. Reports of Fighting at
Other Places.
..Vienna.?Desperate fighting has
Deen in progress between Bulgarians
md Servians several days near Veles
[KopriM), according to the Sofia correspondent
of the Neu Frele Presse.
He says the Bulgarian troops xe>)ulsed
the Servian southern wing
vith heavy losses and expect to occupy
Veles shortly.
The same correspondent telegraphs
hat a great battle extending over an
irea of 50 miles is in progress north.
)f Salonika, where 80,000 Greeks are
>pposed to 100,000 Bulgarians. The
esult is expected to be a deciding
actor in the Greek and Bulgarian
campaign.
The strategy of the Bulgarian comnanders
forced the Greeks to abanlon
several fortified positions near
Salonika, Langasa, Lake and Beshik
^ake.
Saloniki.?Greek troops captured
!rom the Bulagrains the small town of
^aHana on the railroad from Salonika
o Serres. It is considered the most
mportant position in the vicinity and
.he key to Serres, 20 miles northeastj
Constantinople.?The Ottoman government
has not yet decided what acion
it will take in view of the Balkan
situation but the opinion prevails
lere that Turkey will not allow the
>pportunity to escape of obtaining
;ome material or moral benefit from
he clash.
London. ? A disgraceful incident
narked the arrival at Belgrade of
1,384 Bulgarian prisoners of war, according
to a special dispatch from
;he Servian capital. The prisoners
ivefre marched through the streets
n the presence of immense crowds
)f Servians who closed in, cheering
vildly at the rear of wagons loaded
vith wounded lying three deep, many
>f them apparently dying.
Desecrate Flag, Apology Follows.
Washington.?Two incidents in<
olving desecrations of national flags
vhich marked celebrations are exited
to form the subject of comdaints
to the state department, though
so far nohing has been heard from
hem.
The affair at Winnipeg, Maanitoba,
nvolving the trampling of an Amercan
flag at a British parade, probtbly
cannot be made the basis of an
)fflcial protest because the Internaional
law does not guarantee protection
of flags of a foreign country exjept
where they are displayed over
jfflcial buildings. In the Tucson, Ariz.,
nc-ident, however, where the flag over
he Mexican consulate was torn down
*? ^ X ill "UIO ,, Va
,ne state department wm iirvuauuiy uc
>bliged to request the local authoriies
o make a proper apology and amends
,o the Mexican consul.
Governor Mann's Ceniai.
Richmond, Va.?In a statement Go\arncr
Mann strongly resented the
published reports that he had advocated
a grand reunion of the armies
of the North and the South in Richmond
in 1915 on the fiftieth anniversary
of the evacuation of the Confederate
capital. '"There is absolutely nc
foundation for the statement that 1
idvocated such a reunion," said Governor
Mann. "The friendly gathering
of American citizens who were soldiers
in both armies on the field of
Gettysburg was a very different thing
from the proposed celebration of the
passing and fall of the Confederacy,"
The Political Reward.

of three men will be introduced
