MAKES CHANGE OF WAITERS For Gambling. Other Important News Throughout the State EIGHTEENTH YEAR. MAKES CHOICE FOR Gambling. Other Imp ALBUQUERQUE, N. M. The passing of colored table waiters is being realized by the old citizens with regret. Where a year or so ago the leading hotels of the city employed colored men, disputing and wrangling caused their dismissal. Such was the case with the Sturge European hotel, and information has just come that we have been displaced at Zeiger's Cafe by white boys. The management holds that colored help does not make time. They would sit up all night drinking and gambling and would sleep on duty, making them unfit for service in a first-class place. It is now up to the colored waiters. The cause is evident. While one regrets to see this state of affairs, yet the remedy is in our own hands. Many of our men here in Albuquerque have families and are well thought of by the entire city. It is too bad that the good must suffer for the deeds of the careless and indifferent. The Shriners of Oro Temple gave their annual concert and ball last Friday evening at Red Men's hall. A large crowd was in attendance. Those who took part in the program acquitted themselves with credit. Among those deserving special mention are Miss A.

The chief industry of Bethlehem of Judea, writes Marlon Harland in Lippincott's, is that of the mother-of pearl workers. The shells are brought from the Red sea, and in the hands of native artisans are polished and carved, the larger into elaborate designs; the smaller are cut up for rosaries and crosses. The work is all done by hand and the methods are amazingly primitive to a spectator from the home of steam and electric power. But the results are extraordinary. The largest shell we saw was carved in scenes from the birth of Christ, the Agon in the Garden, and the Crucifixion and had the general effect of delicate frostwork. Under the magnifying glass every detail was seen to be perfect in outline and finish. It was executed to order for a wealthy American, and was to cost $160. About 150 people make a living by this industry, which is 500 years old. In the shops the workmen all upo the floor, their benches in front of them; the air is full of whish dust and the light, admitted by the single window and the open door, so can that the exquisite treasury of the wrought shells is a mystery even as fore the visitor notes new few, simple and crude are the instruments ploved. --- 1025 CHAMPA STREET THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape. We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice in a whole season. They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is $8.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.80 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received. We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented. We will allow a cash discount of 5 per cent (thereby making the price $4.55 per pair) if you send FULL CASH WITH ORDER and enclose this advertisement. We will also send one nickel-plated brass hand pump and two Sampson metal puncture closers on full paid orders (these metal puncture closers to be used in case of intentional knife cuts or heavy gashes).

Ask your Postmaster, Banker, Express or Freight Agent or the Editor of this paper about us. If you order a pair of these tires, you will find that they will ride easier, run faster, wear better, last longer and look finer than any tire you have ever used or seen at any price.

In Egypt all went clean shaven; but tn Assyria only the slaves and peasants shaved East Africa is not only becoming a favorite resort for sportsmen in search of big game, but a place of settlement, rapidly growing in popularity. Lord Hindlip has recently purchased a large area in the neighborhood of Nairobi, on the line from Mombasa to the Victoria Nyanza lake, and is going in for breeding ostriches and stock raising, and Lord Delamere has also acquired a huge estate, and intends farming on a large scale. The latter is endeavoring to improve the native cattle by judicious interbreeding with Jerseys, and he proposes to breed sheep in an extensive way. The climate in the high grounds is delightful for three parts of the year, and it is expected that example set by these two peers will be followed by several other Englishmen. Land is cheap—close to Nairobi it can be bought for 60 cents an acre, and it is suitable for most purposes. ARSENIC AS A STIMULANT. Swiss Guides Have Great Faith in the Drug—Good for Horses. "Horses and mountaineers," said a chemist, "consumes arsenic as a college boy consumes Egyptian cigarettes. No particularly evil results, so far as I can make out, follow. "During the Alpine season big consignments of arsenic go out regularly to the Swiss guides. These men claim that a lump of the drug, allowed to dissolve gradually in the mouth, helps one up a stiff grade as a rope would do. "A pinch of arsenic is occasionally sprinkled over horses' oats, or a piece the size of a pea is fastened to their bits. The stuff puts fire and go into the animals. It rounds them out. It makes their coats glossy. "But no one should take to arsenic. No one should take to any stimulant. We are better off without such things." Automobile Escaped. Senator Flinn, the Republican leader of Pittsburg, smilingly denied the other day that he was a victim of automobile heart, the new disease. "Here, though, is an automobile story just as good for you," said Senator Flinn to the reporter who was questioning him. "A man in Altoona, the owner of a very fine 40 horse power Limousine motor car, failed last month, and while his affairs were being settled up the car disappeared. As soon as everything had been adjusted, though, the car reappeared in the Altoona man's garage again. "This angered one of the creditors and the first time he saw the bankrupt he took him bittrely to task. "A nice bankrupt!" he said. 'How does it happen if you are a bankrupt that you still have that automobile?' "Well, you see," said the other smiling. 'I went through the bankruptcy court, but the automobile went round.' Judging from Appearances. Samantha—"I a'pose that's where them bold hussles run an' hide when they see any one they know a'comin'!"—Puck. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. "Nothing Succeeds Like Success" EASTER BALL UNDER THE AUSPICES OF RICE OF LODGE ELKS EASTER MONDAY APRIL 1, 1907 AT East Turner Hall MUSIC BY HARRIS' FULL ORCHESTRA ADMISSION 50 CENTS A Good Time Promised to All Save Dweller Buried With Pillow Knives for Spirit World. The skeleton of a cave dweller, who sourished somewhere between the old stone age and the new—anywhere between fifty and a hundred millions of years ago—has just been found in one of the famous caves at Cheddar, says the London Express. Just within the entrance of the cave owned by Mr. Gough there existed until a few days ago a low-vaulted passage, which led toward a hole opening out into a water-filled chamber. To drain the further end of the cave Mr. Gough had a trench cut to the water hole, and in doing so two layers of stalagmite had to be cut through. Between them was cave earth, and in this earth was found the skeleton of a man of enormous antiquity which the stalagmite had kept in an almost perfect state of preservation. The bones of the leg exhibit the flattening characteristic of the men of this remote period. The thick frontal bone of the skull and the bony projections over the eye sockets also add their testimony, while measurements made by St. George Gray, the well known paleontologist, give the man's height as 5 feet 5% inches. Beside the skeleton were found, laid with great care near the hands, a number of flint flakes and knives, indicating that the man, probably a headman of his day, had been ceremoniously interred and provided with all that he would need in the spirit world. It is probable that great numbers of such interments may be unearthed in this famous stone-age area, which embraces Cheddar, Workey Hole, Ebbor and around Tor Hill—all in the neighborhood of the great spring at Wells, in the vicinity of which in the early days of the earth there was a large settlement of the cave-dwelling hunting men. Found Rare Art Treasurea. Another valuable addition to Italy's treasures in medieval works of art has just been brought to light. In the old church of Cireggio, near Omegna, some internal repairs and structural cleaning are being carried out. Among the rest a thick coating of whitewash has been removed. Fortunately, with a view to possible discoveries underneath, this was done with care, with the result that there have been found six beautiful frescoes of the best period of Italian art. They are all by the eminent painter Grandenzio Ferrari. The color is said to be splendid. London Globe. Family Use Fine Wines NOT MEANT FOR HIS EARS. Humorous Request Made by Over-Cautious Lover.

Attorney-General Herbert Parker, of Massachusetts, can appreciate a joke even though it may be played on himself. The other evening at the dinner of the Essex Bar Association he related this experience of his own: "At a certain period of my practice," he said, "I was very sharp on evidences, much sharper than I am today. There was a bright young man on the stand in the upper court who had occasion during his testimony to state on examination that a man in question had left the shop to be shaved. I interrupted, taking exception to the evidence. 'Your honor,' I asked, 'how did the boy know what the man went out of the shop for?' "How did you know?" the judge asked the witness immediately, 'that the man went out to be shaved?' "Why,' the boy replied, 'of course, I don't know anything about the law, and perhaps I did not know that he went out to be shaved, but when a man goes out of the shop with his face covered with a smutty growth and returns again shortly with a smooth face, I always thought I was justified in presuming that he had gone out for the purpose of being shaved." LONG HOURS OF SCHOOLING. Boys Worked Hard in Old English Institutions of Learning. Schoolboys in Old England took to Latin and Greek at an early age. At St. Saxbor's grammar school, Southwark, in 1611, a pupil of seven years and three months was admitted as an ordinary occurrence, who signed his form of admission, stating himself to be "reading and learning in the Accidence, and entering into Propria que Maribus, etc.; and also Tully his second epistle, among those gathered by Sternius, and Corderius' dialogues, etc." The hours of study were long, too. An old record says that from March till September "the child is to come at six in the morning and be at school till 11. Again at one and tarry till six; the rest of the year he is to begin in the morning at seven and leave at five in the afternoon. The maister shall not give leave to play but once a week." The maister was to be skilled in Latin, and able to teach grammar, oratory, poetry and Greek, as also the principles of Hebrew. He is to be of a wise, sociable and loving disposition, not hasty or furious, nor of ill example; he shall discern the nature of every child—if such may be gotten." The Milling of a Coin. Nearly everybody thinks that the milling of a coin is its corrugated rim, but that term has nothing to do with the corrugations. The coiner at the mint takes up a blank, a round piece of plain silver, cut out of a silver bar, and drops it into a machine. It comes out with the edges slightly rounded. Then he drops it into the milling machine, and it comes out with the rim flat and raised a little above the sides. The milling is this plain raised rim, without reference to any corrugations, and it is intended to protect the surface of the coin from wear. The corrugations around the rim are called the "reeding."

Sully's Hat Reminds Him of a Woman's Barbed Shaft. Daniel J. Sully, on the day of his admission to the Chicago Board of Trade, lunched at the Chicago club. He wore a new derby hat, for he had been pretty severely mauled by the brokers and his old hat had been altogether ruined. "You are not wearing the same hat you had on this morning, sir," a reporter said to Mr. Sully with a smile. "No," the broker admitted, and he went on: "Now, I'll tell you an appropriate and timely story—a story about a hat and about Easter. "Two women shook hands warmly after church on an Easter Sunday morning, and while they conversed they examined each other's apparel with their bright eyes. "'How becoming your Easter hat is,' said the first woman. "'Oh, do you think so?' said the other. "'Yes, indeed. It looks almost as well as it did last year.'" Rule of the Game They were playing a little social game of poker in the parlor, the young gentleman acting as instructor to the ladies. "It is not your turn to bet now, Miss Primleigh," he remarked; "you have the advantage of not having to bet until the others have all said." "Why so?" she inquired. "Because you have the age on us," he responded. She was his bitterest enemy from that time on.—New Orleans Times Democrat. Her Ideal. "I never have married," quoth Phillis the wise. "For few are the men whose possession's a prize. "I never have married," quoth Phillis the fair. "Since ardor is fleeting and worth is so rare. "Yet response and consent I am sure I should feel. Toward my unrealized hero, my mental ideal." "And who is your ideal?" Then Phillis arose. "My ideal." she said, "is the man who'll propose." - Georgianna Palmer, in Harper's Bazar.

Nay more, thou didst the nation free From slavery's curse and crime, Till o’er our land from end to end Did bells of freedom chime. The humblest slave dared lift his head For life and liberty Were now the right of the oppressed By thy benign decree! The Union held by thee so dear, Is a reality, And stands one grand united whole, A monument to thee. But hadst thou faltered in thy task, How changed might history read, And still might clank the chain of slaves, The victom of men’s greed. Thank God for thy great life of love, And service for thy state, Thy name throughout the ocean's bounds With pride we celebrate. Great men shall come and great men gO In the world’s march, and yet Thy name, oh noble patriot, We never shall forget! —Katherine D, Tillman in Colorado Springs Gazette.

Show yourself a race lover by patronizing them. Be a booster. Sleeplessness. Before having recourse to drugs because a child lies awake see that the body linen is comfortable, the bed free from knobs, and not too hard. See that the bed coverings are sufficient, and not excessive, and that the child's feet are not cold. Make yourself sure that the pillow affords ease, and try to make it as high as is compatible with that ease. Let the child retire with hands and face quite clean. Study whether the condition of the hair causes discomfort by tickling the face or getting in the eyes. Ascertain whether any neglect of natural functions is responsible. Revise the latest meal; possibly the child goes to bed hungry, or thirsty, or too soon after eating. Possibly the brain is too excited for sleep to follow retirement. In such a case it will be well to make the child study a rather dry lesson book, or read a rather dull story for half an hour before retiring. Thatched Roofs in England. "The thatched roof, which makes the English cottage picturesque, is doomed," said an architect. "For some years it has been going gradually. Soon it will be altogether a thing of the past. Fire insurance is the cause of the thatched roof's disappearance. No company will insure a cottage or its contents if the roof is thatched. They who want insurance must substitute for the roof of thatch a tiled one. As long as the English cottager remains very poor so that his house and furniture are not worth insuring he keeps a thatched roof over his head. As soon as he begins to prosper and lays in household goods of value he takes out a fire policy and away then goes his thatched roof." His Day Off. A postmaster posted the following notice on his shutter, recently: "All parties expectin' mail are hereby notified to git all that's comin' to 'em in advance—any time before next Thursday, that bein' the day we have app'inted to go huntin'—not havin' had a holiday from the government since July 4, and the said government seemin' to forget that bein' only human, we ned rest and recreation occasionally. There's some little mail here for the Joneses and the Tompkinses—but it don't amount to much, as it's all got one-cent stamps on it. There ain't nuthin' much in the business now!" Polite Ceylonese. William Jennings Bryan, describing his world tour in New York, praised the Ceylonese. "The Ceylonese," said Mr. Bryan, "are the politest, the urbanest, the most tactful people you can imagine. "They have a proverb that gives some idea of their delicacy. This proverb says: "It is safer to pull the tail of a tiger than to call a lady's attention to her first gray hair.'" Dr. E. L. FAULKNER.

With Easter so near, it is a fitting time to sound a warning to those who have hardly gotten out of the financial distress caused by the holidays. All people are not wise. The great majority live from hand to mouth according to census figures. Credit and credit alone enables them to have the necessities, much less the luxuries of life. Yet while this condition prevails, there are many who will set out at this season of the year to shine in dress and fashionable observance, forgetting the hard lessons of the past. It is pitiful to see a fashion plate parading the streets in clothes bought on time. It is little short of tragedy to record the social triumphs of persons who exist only by the generosity of store keepers. To live a lie is the same as to tell one. Let the ambitious dresser stop this year and count up the bills, great and small that he owes, and then square them before he starts out to cut a figure. A LITERARY TREAT. It is very usual to advertise an event as a "treat," but not all make good. From the failures, and mediocre affairs, the oration and declamation contest given by the University club stands out as a conspicuous exception. This club is composed chiefly of young men attending the various branches of Denver University. Messrs. Turner and Raines contested on the declamation, the latter winning by a very clever rendition of Poe's Raven. N. S. Reynolds won the oration over Mr. Crosby, by a splendid composition on the future of young manhood, delivered with powerful effect. Musical numbers by Miss Claire Gilmore, Miss Jones and Roy Handy, readings by Miss Von Dickersohn and Miss Holmes completed a rare evening of literary gems. S. L. Raines was the prime mover in the contest and was remembered by the club with a token in return for his interest. PROMINENT PEOPLE MARRIED. At Raton, N. M., last week there occurred the marriage of Mrs. E. M. McAfee and Mr. Benjamin Brooks. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Cooper. The bridegroom is in business there. He owns two four-room houses and a two-horse dray. He is in good financial condition. The bride is a sweet woman. She is a member of Gaines Temple S. M. T. and of the A. M. E. church of Trinidad, Colo. She will be much missed in her old home. Mrs. Dora Ogburn and Mrs. Grace Campbell are sojourning in Georgetown. Dr. Justina L. Ford wishes to announce that she will remain in the city, and is located at 2026 Arapahoe Street. Her patients and the public will receive the same attention as heretofore. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORAD. HIS WORKS LIVE AFTER HIM. Mitchell H. Bennett, who was a member of Byrd Lodge of Masons, situated in Helena, Montana, died recently. Upon his death it becomes known that the lodge of which he is a member is enriched by a bequest of money and a lot in that city. He was a charter member of Byrd Lodge and was an active and enthusiastic Mason. W. H. C. Stell, who is head waiter at the Country Club, leaves Monday on his vacation. He will spend it in New Mexico and Texas, visiting friends and relatives. N. G. Walker, who for years has been with the family of Col. F. J. Hearne, who died this week, accompanied the remains to Kansas City. I wish to thank members of U. B. F. and S. M. T. and United Order of True Reformers and my friends and neighbors in general who rendered me such tender kindness as brethren and sisters during my recent five weeks' illness, and especially do I mention the name of Brother John Cole, who gave me the most tender care both day and night. HENRY B. BROWN, Of U. B. F. and U. O. T. R. Mrs. M. E. Mackey, after a year spent in California, has returned to the city and is living at 2260 Pennsylvania avenue. NEW BUSINESS FOR THE SPRINGS T. C. Caldwell, the hustling proprietor of the One Minute Tailor Shop, is opening a shop in Colorado Springs. He will continue the business here, and at the same time will take advantage of a good opening which is offered him there. The improvement in his present business presages good fortune for him there.

Among the remarkable antiquities of India is the great sundial at Delhi. It is 58 feet high, the length of the oblique edges being 116 feet and the radius of the circle about 19 feet. Its construction is unique. A narrow flight of stone steps, parallel to the axis of the earth, towers upward. The walls which support it are of marble. The shadow falls upon huge marble arcs, built out to the right and left, and accurately indicates the time. Broad galleries and steps are constructed on all sides. The platforms of the structure were once used, it is supposed, for smaller astronomical instruments, which have crumbled away with the passing years. Before the year 1800 English tourists found the building used for horse stalls. The sun dial is the largest in the world and is supposed to have been erected by Jai Sing II., who built great observatories in many places in India and their present massive ruins give silent testimony to an unsurpassed knowledge of the science of astronomy. ong the damage suit lawyers— times designated in derision " obes"—at the Kansas City bar is on who has been particularly flagrant in operations in time past.

Pliny tells many singular tales, and we fear he was a credulous person. But Henry III. of France, when he was in Poland, nobles, physicians among them Dr. Johannes Piduxius; Alexander Guagninus of Verona, a colonel of foot; Sigismundus Liber, a baron in Heiberstein, all personally knew this fact: A people that inhabited Lucomoria seemed to die on every 27th of November by reason of the winter's cold. On the 24th of April they all awoke, arose, and went about their business. Meaning of Rice Throwing. The throwing of rice at weddings is probably the most ancient custom at present in use. In its original form it was undoubtedly the wish of the wedding guests that the young couple might always have enough to eat. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Will Farmer Blais and his two fearless sons succeed in lifting the hoodoo of a half century from their newly acquired home? This is a question which agitates the residents of Little Canada and the people of Marlboro, Mass. Ever since the genial Canadian moved into the old Cyrus Felton house and induced his two sons to share the ghostly vigil with him the eyes of the neighborhood have been glued to the house, and the people who know the ghastly history of the homestead have been waiting the outcome. Meanwhile, the new owner tills the soil, looks after his hens, smokes his pipe in seeming enjoyment, while over the place hangs dread superstition and an air of mystery that for years kept the place tenantless, and which even now prevents the women of the family of the owner from coming to live at the farm. Traditions of the Old Place. "It is well for Farmer Blais and the two sons that they do not think, because it is this thinking which has produced mania and which has taken away the senses of the people who have lived in the old Felton place." So say the neighbors. The story, or tradition, runs thus: Over a century ago, when Marlboro was but a village and Northboro little more than a settlement, the Felton family built the house and outbuildings. For fifty years the house was a resting place for travelers and a place of entertainment for the young people. A large hall was used for dancing, and many a joyful party stayed till dawn before rousing the sleepy horses and driving back to the village. It was in the fifties, while one of these parties was in full swing, that a bride and groom from Worcester alighted from the stage coach and asked for lodgings for the night. At midnight, while the musicians were resting for a "Money Musk" to follow after a "Virginia Reel," and while the young couples were seated or standing around the hall, that a woman's cry was heard. Then all was still. It was such a blood-curdling cry—so filled with anguish and fright—that the faces of the women blanched and they clung tightly to the arms of their escorts. The landlord and one of the young men, more daring than the rest, climbed the stairs and made for the door of the room where the young couple had retired, scarcely an hour before. The door was pushed open. The lantern in the landlord's trembling hand shed a light over the room, and there on the floor, near the open window, lay the young bride with a hideous gash in her white throat. The bridegroom was found in the Westboro woods days later, a raving maniac. "That started the hoodoo," say the neighbors, and the tragedies which have followed seem to indicate a terrible mental spell, a sort of telepathic wave, or suicide-by-suggestion process that lurks within the walls of the place. It is for students of psychology to determine the exact causes, but the facts are matters of current knowledge as gleaned from the gossip of those who live in the neighborhood.

THE SOLDIER INCIDENT. The deeper the probe is driven in the investigation of the alleged rioting by colored troops at Bronsville, the less certain it is that the soldiers are in fault. What the action of the president may be in case the conclusion is inevitable that he was wrong and that an injustice has been done the soldiers, is beyond our power even to surmise. It would be characteristic of him to stand pat when wrong, just as he does when right. In case he does, he would speak a word to our people to use good sense and not be led entirely by the last count merely, but give the man Roosevelt a fair consideration, taking in the whole scope of his official acts. Human nature clings tenaciously to the memory of an injury, but the good deeds are easily forgotten. President Roosevelt is hasty. He is reputed to be a fine man personally, he has a long record of good deeds done and good things said for us. Let us condemn him for the purpose of aiding him to do the right, but let us not be blind to his merits. Let our friends not be haunted with the fear that we are not steadfast. Let us cling to those who have been tried even after they are proven wrong rather than desert to new alliances that we know not the value of. Willing to Help Along.

The latest figures show in the city 10,509 octogenarians and 620 nonagenarians, of whom 89 are nearly 100. Six are over 102 years of age. The Two Extremes. About the guiltiest-looking people in the world are a man accused of a crime of which he is innocent, and a newly-married couple trying to pass for veterans. True and False Freedom. There are two freedoms—the false, in which a man is free to do what he likes; the true, in which a man is free to do what he ought.—Charles Kingsley. Hair Trimming Taught in School. In some Austrian country schools, girl pupils are taught to trim one another's hair, a useful ability for those resident in outlying rural districts.

OUR INSURANCE IS BEST THIS IS WHY We have a thousand letters from pleased claimants and will show them to you. Ira G. Harris, President He Excepted the Captain. Passing the pantry of his boat one day, Capt. Birch of Gloucester, Mass., overheard one of the cabin boys indulging in animadversions on the officers and crew. He turned a very severe countenance upon the boy and said: "Young man, hereafter when you have anything to say about anyone about the boat, please except the captain." A few days later, when the captain happened to be on deck, the same cabin boy carried past him a dish of food prepared for the table, and a pet hog running between the boy's legs upset him, scattering the food. Picking himself up, with a most rueful countenance, the boy commenced berating the hog. "You are the miserablest hog I even seen," he began, when, catching a view of the old man, and remembering his injunction, he added, "except the captain." The boy has had a secure birth on The boy has had a secure birth on Capt. Birch's boat ever since. "Uncle John's" Chicken Deal. Down in South China, Me., was a good old Quaker, Uncle John Jones, whom everyone knew and respected. A slight defeat in his speech added interest to his remarks. Uncle John raised poultry along with the other products of his farm. One morning he discovered that a number of his chickens were missing. Having his suspicions as to who the thief might be, he lay low, and finally recovered his losz. Upon his next visit to the corner grocery store the loungers were interested to know how he recovered them. Uncle John said: "I went to that fellow for the third and last time, and told him to bring back my chickens, and he brought back chickens that I had and chickens that I never know I had." Crane Fled From 13. Actors are notoriously superstitious, and W. H. Crane is no exception. One day, when he found himself in room 13 at a hotel, he immediately demanded that he be transferred. "But," expostulated the clerk, "this is the best room in the house. It's a room, too, in which many eminent men have lodged. Why, your old friend John T. Raymond often occupied it." "Indeed," mused Crane, somewhat mollified; "dear John! and he really stayed here?" "Yes, sir; he died in this very room." Crane fled to another hotel. THE ATTIC PHILOSOPHER. Lots of people acquire notoriety thinking it's popularity. He is a wise man who knows his own napkin in a boarding house. He is also a wise man who knows how to dress an old excuse in a new suit. You can generally measure the sympathy you will get by the size of your bank account. It's a terrible bump to realize that the girl to whom you have been making love does it merely for a fad. If some people would confine the interest they take in life to their own affairs they wouldn't have anything to do.
