"Yes, sir." promptly replied the druggist. "We have one of the most comnlete stocks of ooisons in the city." "I want to die like a do*, doc." he went on. "What would you advise me to take?" "Well, it's all a matter of taste, you ed world quickly and without much ede world quickly and without much pain?" "Xo. sir!" he exclaimed fiercely. "I want to die in the greatest agony. I'll show her what it means to throw me down." "Ah, I see," said the druggist. "A ease of unrequited love." "That's about the size of it. doc, and I want revenge. My plan is to fill up on poison and then go over on her front steps to die. I've a good pair of lungs in me, and when the stuff begins to work it will make her stand up to hear me take on. Can you fix me up, do you think?" "I've Just the thing for your case. It's a powerful drug and pleasant to take, but ten minuntes later you will begin to suffer the tortures of the damned." "That's whut I want, doe." "Your teeth will fall out one by one." "Th-they will?" "Your tongue will turn black and swell so that It will slowly choke you to death." "W-wili It?" "Your bones will crumble and crack until your screams of agony can be heard a mile." "H-haven't you something else, doe, not quite so strong?" "No; In this case there is nothing as good. Your groans toward the end will be terrible to hear. You will foam at the mouth. Your heart"? "Say, doc," he broke in with a sickly smile, "I think a soda water will be about what I want." "What flavor?" asked the druggist, keeping a straight face only by the greatest effort. "Vanilla," was the meek reply. And after one sip of the foaming beverage he hurried out of the store.? A. B. Lewis in Judge. One Wat.?A story said to be charusterlstic is told of an Arkansas judge, says Harper's Weekly. It seems that when he convened court at one of the towns on his circuit it was found that no pens, ink or paper had been provided and upon inquiry it developed that no county funds were available for this purpose. The judge expressed himself somewhat forcefully, then drew some money from his own pocket. He was about to hand this to the clerk when a visiting lawyer, a highpriced, Imported article then brought on to defend a case of some importance spoke up in ar. aside plainly audible over the room. "Well," he remarked with Infinite contempt, "I've seen some pretty bad courts but this?well this is the limit. The old judge flushed darkly. "You are fined twenty-five dollars for contempt, sir! Hand the money to the clerk." he said and when the pompous visitor had humbly complied he continued: "Now, Mr. Clerk go out and get what pens and ink and paper this court may require and if there is anything left over you can give the gentleman hs chiange."

"Vase Indeed," answered Picanniny Jim, according to the Washington Star. "An' did you ever see one er dese 'leetric motors pick up a han'some, shiny locomotive an' drag it frou de Haltimo' funnel?" "Lots o' times." "An* did you ever see a quiet ol' knee-sprung white hoss pullin' a helpless automobile to town?" "I sho' has."

The Road to Prosperity.?A storyis told of Marshal Lefebvre, Duke of Dantzic, that favorite of Napoleon, which illustrates his own consciousness of the qualities that had made him what he was. He was vexed at the tone of envy and unkindness with which a companion of his childhood, who met him in his prosperity, spoke of his riches, titles and luxury, and said in reply: "Well, now you shall have it all, but at the price which I have paid for it. We will go into the garden, and I will lire a musket at you sixty times, and then if you are not killed everything shall bo yours."?Argonaut. Ax Expected Shortening.?A certain member of the fashionable Metropolitan and Chevy Chase clubs at the national capital has all his life borne many quips by reason of his exceedingly diminutive stature. Last spring the diminutive clubman took unto himself a wife, the daughter of a well-known Federal officer, who is said to be as witty as her father. "Mrs. Rlank," said a friend one day recently, "I have just seen your husband for the first time since his marriage. Do you know, he seems shorter than ever." "Why not?" asked the wife, with a smile: "he's married and settled down." J 1,11 |P*-I .? ?? V,. ?... . An rxco.vvivi.vl. instki'mknt. ? Whether Jan Kubelik will permit himself to be lionized remains to be seen. At any rate it is rather certain that his violin will be left at home if its owner deigns to dine or sup or take tea abroad. A New York woman who has had some success as an entertainer of celebrities wrote Kubelik during his last Gotham appearance: "Will you join us with some friends to dine on Thursday. Bring your violin." She was somewhat chagrined when her messenger returned with the reply: "Dear Madam: My violin never dines.''?San Francisco Call.

He was taken ill while* on a visit to the country in the early part of last week, l-eturned here Thursday afternoon and the disease developed rapidly. Mr. Carter had resided in Chester a little more than a year, coming here from the Sandy River neighborhood. He was married several years age to Miss Fannie Wright.

The heavy ice brought poles to the ground as if they were nothing more than saplings. The Piedmont Telephone and Telegraph company was doubtless the heaviest sufferer from this onslaught of the elements, which General Manager Babington says is the worst they have encountered in the history of the company. Over 200 local telephones were put out of business and wires and poles are down all over this section. Every rural toll line of this company was put out of commission. Manager Babington put to work every man he could secure and the work of rebuilding the lines is going forward just as rapidly as possible under the circumstances. The only long-distance line in working order is the one to Charlotte. At least twenty-live poles are down on lines * ?- -?*?? *?? * ?-v*> A/Tn n Doq t*_ leading <>Ul lu tun II. num mav i vui son's store on West Air Line street to the Gray mill every pole went down except one. This was probably due to the fact that the line here makes a heavy curve and when one pole broke it carried the whole half-circle of poles down with it. When seen by the Gazette map yesterday, Manager Babington stated that he has all the men he can secure and they are repairing the troubles as rapidly as they can, the work being done regardless of expense to the company. He requests that the public be as patient as possible under the circumstances and says the lines will all be in working order within a few days. He regrets the inconvenience caused the company's patrons, of course, and is sparing no effort to remedy the evils. A FlhANCIAL GENIUS. His Great Scheme Did Not Impress the Elank President. The president of the Western Hemisphere bank sat in his easy chair , smoking a fragrant Havana and meditating upon the lessons of the late business panic when the door of the office was opened, and a tall, slim man wearing a suit of faded black entered the room. "Beg pardon, sir," said the caller, removing his hat and sitting down in another chair, "but you are the president of this bank, are you not?" "How did you get in here?" "I was told by one of your suhordidinates that I would find you here. ana ? "Who the devil are you?" "My name is Glasspy. I ain an inventer of"? "What do you want?" "Nothing, sir, if my presence is objectionable. My object in calling was to arrange for the depositing of a sum of money." "The cashier attends to all that." "I know it. but the amount is so large that I was sure he would refer me to you, and I thought it best to come straight to headquarters." "How large is the amount?" "One million dollars." "In cash?" "In cash. I may add that it is the outcome of a linancial scheme which even the president of a great bank may well consider"? "But the money?is it in such shape tnat you are ready to deposit 11. "Xo, sir. As I was about to explain, the money will not be available until certain careful considered plans mature. but it will be in cold cash when I"? "Is it contingent on a business scheme?" "Yes, sir; it is. But the scheme rests on business principles as solid as Gibraltar and as broad as the Rocky mountains. It is contingent upon the success of two inventions?namely, Olasspy's celebrated shaving compound and Glasspy's footpad discourager, an absolutely unique device which I shall explain to you presently. In order to exploit these two inventions properly, I need the sum of $250, treasury notes preferred, to be regarded as a loan until the returns begin to"? The president pushed a knob on the side of his desk, and a husky uniformed bouncer instantly appeared. "William," roared the official, head of the Western Hemisphere bank, "take this man out and fall on him!"? Chicago Tribune. BURNING DEAD NOW COMMON. ? Freak Practices With Ashes of Departed Ones. There are many queer phases in connection with cremation. This week a well known physician of Washington made arrangements for the incineration of his remains, paying the bill in advance. and stipulating the ashes be placed in a glass jar and scattered to the winds from the top of the Washington monument. The physician gave positive.instructions that no ceremonies .whatever be held over his remains; that the cremation he private, and that the scattering of the ashes be at noon the day following the incineration. Cremation has become so common that but little attention is paid to it by the general public, and half of the cremations are never heard of. Generally in recent years whenever a cremation is given publicly through the press It it; that of some person of note or wnere ! there are "freak" requests made as to ( the disposition of the ashes or the style of the urn. * The first crematory in the United 1 States was at Washington, Pa. It was 1 put up by Dr. Julius LeMoyne about J twenty years ago, and for about two 1 years the incinerations conducted there 1 attracted widespread attention. Cremation progressed so rapidly that furnaces were established and are now In operation in a large number of cities ? and towns. Natural gas is used in the incinerations in some cities and this has reduced the cost so that expense is now little or no hindrance to the ' method. The cost of incineration aver- ! ages about $7, and $45 will pay for the 1 whole service in almost any city where * there is a crematory. If one cares to ] save express the work can be done in J Japan at a cost of $1. Urns For Ashes of Bodies. Urns for the ash?& of the cremated are the heaviest items of expense, and so rapidly has cremation progressed in favor of Americans that potteries are j now in operation in several cities. At j first difficulty was experienced in keep- f ing the ashes of the human body free j from foreign substance. Even in anr\rk%*lr*r1c flint U'flo n nffthlAm T'hft * Greeks used a shroud of asbestos, the Egyptians one of ainianth, and other zinc coffins. But earthen urns were most generally used, and great care was taken to protect these urns from the ravages of weather and Intruders. In the United States today urns are most exclusively used for incinerations. Care is taken to have the fastenings for the urns perfectly air-tight and the best materials are used. Two designs of urns are made for the trade. One is wholly plain, the other is ornamented with flourish lines, the representation of ivy leaves, or, in a few instances, with scriptural inscriptions or figures. These varieties are intended keeping the urn in the houses of the living, enclosing it in the vaults of the cemeteries or interring it in ordinary graves. All three methods of final disposition are pursued in this country. A wealthy family keeps the ashes of the father wrapped in an American flag and resting on the top of a secretary in the library. Scattering the ashes to the winds seems to have originated with the Digger Indians, a custom these savages held to as far back as their history can be traced. People who take to cremation seem to have a fondness for having their ashes scattered to the winds. The first man cremated in this country in recent times so wisnea. i-ie was a souineruer uameu Lawrence, and his sons built a furnace especially for the occasion. Baron Von Palm Set the Fashion. The first cremation?not Indian?took place on American soil. In 1876 Baron Von Palm was cremated at Washington, Pa., and his ashes were scattered to the winds upon the Hudson river. Then in 1897 Ernest Rosin stood on the Eads bridge over the Mississippi and poured his father's ashes into the stream below. William P. Appeby, an officer in the Mexican and the Civil wars, was cremated at Fresh Pond in 1898, and the widow took the ashes to her home in Hempstead. Her husband had asked her to scatter them abroad on the first windy day after his cremation. She waited until a gale and the request was complied with. Would Not Burn a Murderer. The crematory management in San Francisco were so squeamish that they refused to burn the body of the mur Cierer uurrani. riis iauier nau iu i??vc it to Pasadena. The medical men of California had been keenly interested i in the case of the young murderer and 1 were anxious to have his brain for ex- t aminatlon. The family was determin- j ed that they should not pet it, and the t father did not let the coffin get out of < his sight until he saw it placed in the t retort at Pasadena. t J. Z. Davis, a California millionaire t "lost his wife. She was cremated and the husband put her ashes in a box twice the usual size, because he in- c tended to have his own mingled with 1 his wife's when he should die in his f turn.

The incineration was done prompty. Then he was Instructed to send the ishes, but tliis ho declined to do until :he bill was paid. In the meantime, rouble over the dead man's will had jroken out in California, and nobody iva.s paying bills just then. So a pecular state of affairs came to pass. The am with his wife's ashes?which rat:Ied lonesomely around in their ample eeeptacle?was produced as evidence n court, while the husband's ashes j ft-ere held In Philadelphia as security for the undertaker's bill. Helen Bertram, who was a member )f the Bostonians, was credited with carrying her husband's ashes around ler neck in a chamois bag. As the ishes from a full grown body weighs from three to five pounds it is doubt'ul if the singer carried more than a small sample of her husband suspend?d from her neck. The highest price paid for an urn n which to deposit ashes was $8,000 ind this was put up by a Pittsburg A-idow. A rich London woman paid 13,000 to have her pet Yorkshire terier cremated and the ashes placed in in um.?Exchange. HUNTING BEARS IN ALASKA. Some of the Biggest of the Bruin Family Found in Far North. "There is good bear hunting on the \ jus Run peninsula, i grot seven grizzlies one afternoon, all of them within i quarter of a mile and not over half in hour's time. The smallest of them ivas a three-year-old, and I should say they averaged 2,000 pounds. It :ook thirteen cartridges to bring the seven down," Grant C. Chase, hunter and prossector, who for eleven years has spent nost of his time In the Alaskan wilds, irossed his knees in reminiscent fashon at the Sherman House this mornng and told a few bear stories on the sve of returning to his favorite launts. Then for corroboration there is the ~ estlmony of Mrs. Chase, who for sev- I >ral years has shared her husband's I Ife and who has kept a diary wherein s faihfully recorded the number of >ear, caribou, sea otter and other fur c* al >earers brought down daily and care- sj 'ul measurments of the biggest skins. d< "I suppose I have killed 500 or 600 ** )ears altogether," continued Mr. ?hase.
