MaBWWWWgaMflBWMM! I We Ha i and in ordei fKJJNU! smsgmmmms Senator Tillman in London Fog. Since his visit to Europe Senator Tillman has a fund of new stories, which sound properly filtered and possess the true continental flavor. In London he enjoyed a real "pea soup" fog: to get a good view of it he took a ride on top of a 'bus. which passed slowly along the streets, as though feeling its way. The wintry chill pinched his nose aok fntr Hrinnod Niobe-like QliVi COi Of vnv v? j'f around him; everything was moist and sticky; sound was deadened, cabs and foot passengers loomed up for a moment, like phantoms, and disappeared as suddenly. "If I was a scholard," said the 'bus driver, emphasizing his final "d," "I'd always talk Latin on this sort of a day." The Senator asked why. "You know, these folks all look like ghosts and ghostesses to me? and Latin's the proper language to talk to spirits in. It's well known they won't answer if they're spoken to in English." Beside the Senator was a Parsee. wearing a red fez. The driver cast sundry curious glances at him, during the frequent pauses necessitated by the fog. When the man got off, he said: "You're an American, I know, Sir, but would you mind telling me where that chap hails from who's wearing that monkey cap?" "He's a sun-worshiper, they are called Parsees." "Well, well?worships the sun, does he? I suppose he's come 'ere to 'ave a little rest from his prayers," and he glanced expressively at the wet, shivering passengers, and the gloomy, cheerless slice of street faintly visible through the fog.?Joe Mitchell Chappie in %tAffairs at Washingtonin the Motional Magazine for August.
