One day he was at tho Mnomillans', and when the conver sation turned upon the subject of Ire I. uid Mr. Macmlllan said that, for his part, lie was In favor of granting au tonomy. This set Freeman to growling at the use of a Greek word. "Why can't you speak English," said he, "and say Home Hide, instead of using Greek, which you don't know?" One of the guests Hushed with anger, and ventured to reprove him, calling his attention to tho respect due their host, and at tho same time paying tribute to Mr. Macmlllan's reuiarkablo abilities. Hut although Freeman did not apologlzo In so many words, ho smoothed the matter over by a humor ous repetition of his criticism.
