Why "Bucket Shop."
The phrase "bucket shop" origi
nated in Chicago. The board of trade
had forbidden dealings in grain op
tions in less amounts than 6,000 bush
els. An open board was established
for small gamblers under the rooms
of the regular board. When business
was slack in the regular board the
elevator would be sent down for an
other "bucketful" of speculators from
tho unauthorized exchange, which
thus came to be known as the "buck
etshop."
Bell's Telephone Haunted Him.
Dr. Bell had a strong aversion to
the ringing of tle telephone bell-the
great invention for which he is re
$ponsible. I occasionally went into his
room and found the bell stuffed with
paper, or wound around with towels.
"rittle did I think when I Invented
the thing," said Dr. ]tell one day,
when he had been awakened by the
jingling of the bell, "that it would rise
up to mock and annoy me."-lrom
Aviation Book," by (Glen Curtiss.
Not One of Those "Distinguished."
A Kansas man who was on his first
visit to Washington recently went to
the capitol, accompanied by a friend,
to see conp ress in session. From the
visitors' gallery the Kansan looked
over the assembled statesmen seek
ing in vain for the member from his
district. "'Maybe he's down there, but
I can't distinguish him." said the
Kansan. "Of course not." replied his
Washington friend. "le can't even
distinguish himself."
Couldn't Place Them.
Little Jessie, aged four, who was
quite familiar with a pack of cards,
was taken to church for the first time.
She was very much interested in the
stained glass w indows, which portray
ed the different saints of the bible.
\luch to the amusement of those
seated by, and very much to the ch
grin of her mother. Jessie said, in a
stage whisper: "Tell me, mother, is
they kings or jacks?"
Servants Proved Faithful.
In the Days of Terror during the
French revolution, when one man was
denounced by another as an act of re
venge, it was rare indeed for the au
thorities to receive any information
from servants, though it would have
been the easiest thing in the world
for a servant smarting from a sense
of injustice to have sent his master to
the guillotine.
Wisdom and Mercy..
As the first rule of wisdom is "knon
thyself'-although it happens to b(
the most diflicilt one-so the first
rule of mercy conists in being con

BELGRADE FALLS

London, Dec. 2.-Belgrade, until the
outbreak of the war Servia's capital,
was occupied today by Austrian troops.
The Servians previously evacuated
the city.

the rcIgu of Eimperor Francis Joseph,
