tumorous Department. Putting It Up to Him. It was his keen sense of humor and his brilliant conversation that made the returning minister from China so popular with the Intellectual coterie of Washington. The wife of a California congressman who met Minister Wu many times during his former residence in the nation's capital, where he had a home in Xew Hampshire avenue, told me-that he was regarded as a delectable tonic among the jaded | wits of Washington. Wu is a great believer in homes and families and is with Roosevelt in ms views of marriage. It Is owing to a suggestion of Wu, by the way. that Robertus Love, the clever St. Louis correspondent, became a benedict. Love was detailed by his paper to interview the distinguished Oriental, but as usual with the astute diplomat it was the latter who did the interviewing. "Are you married?" he asked the newspaper man. "No," replied Love. "And why not?" "My salary is too small." "Why is it too small?" "I'm sure I don't know." "Would you marry If they gave you more salary?" "Yes." That was all of the Interview, and when Love returned to the ottice he had to confess that if he wrote out what Wu had said to him it would be too personal. "Never mind," said the city editor, "that will make it more characteristie .Tust write down the exact words the old chap said." The interview appeared in the pa-j per Just as Love wrote it. and in the afternoon his managing editor called him to the inner sanctum, greeting him with a large, generous smile and the words: "Your salary is raised." And Love got married.?San Francisco Call. A Question of Occupation. A clothing firm occupying a prominent corner determined that it would extend its premises by leasing the quarters then occupied by a German saloon keeper. The clothing people already occupied the floors above the saloon, and by a sort of agreement with the owner of the house had a call on the ground floor whenever they were ready to pay the rental demanded. This time having arrived, the manager of the clothing place called on the German, and, in a friendly way, remarked that lie fancied his firm would take the ground floor after the flrrt of May. and that the dispenser of lager had better be looking for new quarters. "But I don't vant to move." protested the German. "Well, but you'll have to. You're a poor man, and we are rich, and can pay three times as much for this room as you can. If you go out quietly and tntikA nn fuss about it we'll help you to find a new place. If you stay# here at all. you'll pay rent that will beggar you?mind that." "Well, you come in two weeks, und I dell you vot I do." Two weeks later the manager called again. The German was all smiles. "Dot's all right mine vriend. You may schtay upstairs und I'll schtay here. I don't pay no rent at all, but you pay von hundred pounds a year more as you paid last. I haf bought de building."?Tit-Bits. Wasted Labor. A candidate for parliamentary honors found himself in front of a house near which a number of children were playing, says the Philadelphia Record. "Madame. I may kiss these beautiful children, may I not?" "Certainly." replied the mother. When he had finished his wholesale contract he turned to the woman and said: "Seldom have I seen lovelier children. Yours, madame?" The woman blushed deeply. "Ah. of course they are." gallantly suggested the politician. "The little treasures, from whom else could they have inherited those limpid eyes, those rosy cheeks and those musical voices?" But still the lady Mushed. "By the way. madame." said he, "may I impose upon your good nature to the extent of asking that you tell your estimable husband that Mr. Cockrell called upon him." "Excuse me. sit." said the woman. "I have no husband." "Rut these children, madame?surely you are not a widow " "1 fear there's some mistake, sir. This is an orphan asylum. Fleeting is all earthly bliss. That I vow. It" you have a girl to kiss, # I)o it now!

"PititiY, F'h.cy."?One of the ladies in waiting to the late Queen Victoria had a very bright little daughter about 1 years old. and of whom the queen was very fond. The queen invited (lie child to have lunch with her. Of course the mother was highly pleased and charged the little girl to be very careful about her table manners and to be very polite to the queen. The little girl came home in high glee, and the mother asked her all about the luncheon. "Were you a very polite little girl? And did you remember to do all I told you at the table?" asked tlie proud mamma. "Oh. yes; I was polite." said the little girl, "but the queen wasn't." "The queen wasn't!" said the mother. "Why, what did she do?" "She took her chicken bone up in her lingers, and I just shook my finger at her, like you did at me. and said, 'Piggy, piggy. piggy!"*?Philadelphia Ledger. ittiscrllanrous ^railini). ? ? 1 WITH NEIGHBORING EXCHANGES.

The residence next door, occupied by Mr. Patterson. u caught tire, but was put out by the good ,, work of the tire department, as was c, also the store of Mr. McArthur. The p damage to the dwelling was covered by a insurance, but the restaurant building. f; which was destroyed, was a complete loss, as no insurance was being carried jt on It Mr. F. M.

The trunk was watched when n P it was hauled to her house this morn- u ing and when seized, was found to con- o: tain about six gallons of liquor.

The first few months he passed in experimenting, drawing upon his pension for living expenses. He read all that he could find upon the subject, talked with men who had made a study of irrigation farming and went among those of his neighbors who were successful, working in the fields with them. He saw that the climate, soil and natural conditions were favorable for agriculture in all its diversified forms: he saw the results obtained through the practical operation of scientific methods and that intelligent effort and careful supervision were what counted, not the amount of land one possessed. So he went to work upon his one acre. He pruned the trees and set out thirty others of different varieties; he ploughed out the old vegetables and vines and planted new ones; he sold the half doyen sick chickens and replaced* them by a thoroughbred black Spanish rooster and thtee hens, and built them a chicken yard, sowing it to wheat. From the main lateral, running mst his house, he extended a small !ume across the west end of the tract, n this flume he placed si series of tops and plugs. Now, by removing lie of the plugs, a small rivulet of later was inside to flow between a ertain row of trees. When the hirsty roots had been refreshed he eplaced the plug, turned the stop, nd the next row received a watering. I few moments with the hoe and the ivulet was made to wind in and out mong plants and vegetables to any >art of the tiny ranch. A turn of the land and the "rain" was over. He soon learned in just what quanities each tree and vegetable requird the life-giving moisture, with the. esult that his crops have never famshed for want of water or drowned rom excess of it. At the end of the first year his penion went into the fcar.k. The sale of ruits, vegetables and chickens had lot only paid all living expenses, but lad left a surplus as well. This was eturned to the land for Improvenents. The house was painted, new hieken houses were built and the old ence was replaced by a neat wire one.
