"s| But) No Clue Found. ‘ A Washington special says: A Sub-committee of the house judiciary committee Monday resumed investi. gation of the impeachmont charges against Judge Charles Swayne, of the northern district cf Florida. In the last congress the committee made a majority report recommend: ing the impeachment of Judge “Swayne, but minority reports were made against impeachment proceed ings by most of the republican mem bers of the comittee. Shortly before thé adjournment of congress a resolu: tion of impeachment was set for con: sideration in the house on December 20th, the second week of the re-ra- assembling of the short session, and the judicary committee was instructed to continue the investigation. Representative Palmer, of Penn- sylyanta, ‘and Clayton, of Alabama, the sub-comittee, were preseat but Rep- resentative Gillett, cf California, the other member, was unable to attend, The committee, however, deolded to go ehead with tho investigation and Charles T. Forbes, a clerk in the ‘gen- eral Tand office, was called as 2 wit- ness. He testified against Judge Swane regarding a timber trespass caso In Florida, “in which he alleged that Judge Swayne had exacted tho fine o second time for the trespassers. J. N. Stockton, of Quincy, Fia., tes- {ified that J. N. Stripling told him that he, Stockton, could got anything ho “wanted in ‘the way of recelyerships if he would stop the + prosecution against Judge Swayne. This occurr- ed ten years ago. Ellis F. Davis, of Marion, Fla, tes- tified in regard to an attempt to settle the Hoskins contempt case which was pending before Judge Swayne for $500. Judge E. C. Dearborn testified that in 1893 he was a conductor and went with a private car to Delaware and brought Judge Swayne and his fami. ly ta St. Augustine, Fla, the whole party traveling on passes, the Flor!- da railroad at that time being in the hands of a recelyer. Judge Swayne was present at the Mnyestigation ond frequently convers- ed with his attorney, former Senator Higgins, of Delaware. After hearing ZH. B. Floyd, whose testimony threw no new light on the case, the cominittee adjourned until Tuesday. CONFESSES JUDGMENT. Birmingham Road a Surprise. At Macon, Ga, Monday, B. R. Hen. Werson former auditcr of tho Macon and Birmingham railroad, , confessed judgment In the sum of $47,000 in the civil sult brought against him grpwing out of his alleged defsication cf that amount from the raflroad. He gave as hig reason for this step, Which allows the rcad to take judg- ment against him, that he did not -wish to expose his defense in the criminal ease which Is also against him and will be tried at the present term of court, The step taken by Mr. Henderson came as a great surprise to many of His friends and leaves the impression that he will spring a considerable sen- eation when the criminal action against him {s-called. \ “Henderson was jointly indicted with Jullan RN.

MANY and various were the influences that contributed to the unprecedented personal victory galued by Mr. Roosevelt. But none of the minor influences helped him more than did abuse which the Southern politicians and newspapers heaped upon him for entertaining Booker T. Washington at the White House. The American people will never accept the dictum that a Negro scholar is the inferior of a white ignoramus, that a Negro gentleman is the inferior of a white blackguard, that a man's title to consideration rests on the color of his skin and not on his character and his achievements. The World hopes that this little lesson has finally been thoroughly learned.—New York World. President N. B. Young, of the State Normal School at Tallahassee, is the guest of Rev. Dr. and Mrs. D. W. Gilleslee while in the city. He has with him his little son, left motherless about two months ago. President Young is here, as he is everywhere else in interest of the institution at whose head he stands. The work there is in the best condition and everything is moving along hopefully. The large number of students enrolled has exhausted accommodations and the great thing before him now is to secure more room. The scientific department of the institution has been much improved and is now on a basis that will give good results. A competent and experienced man is at the head of this department. The different counties in the State are well represented in the number of students attending. The absolute usefulness of this institution is becoming realized and felt all over the state and it is believed that the State Board of Education will continue to make such provisions for it as will assure every benefit for which it was established.-Jacksonville Metropolis. D. H. Chamberlain Flayed From the New York Independent Ex-Governor D. H. Chamberlain sends us his pamphlet entitled "Recent Phases of Our So-Called Negro Problem," mostly addressed to Prof. James Bryos, but embracing several late letters of his, chiefly in a Charleston, S. O., paper. On the first page he prints these lines, quoted from that journal: In publishing, this document we commend it to all; but we take leave to commend it especially to some of our esteem-ide Northern contemporaries—namely, the New York Independent, etc. We take this as a challenge. When we first read the letter in the columns of one of the most vigorous exponents of hostility to the Negro race we did not feel it necessary to expose its weakness, but now that it is republished for wider circulation, and evidently just now with political intent, for the sake of its attack on President Roosevelt, we will give a few words to its main propositions. Governor Chamberlain was a captain of colored troops in the Civil War, settled on a plantation in South Carolina, became Republican Governor of the State in Re-construction times, was forcibly driven out of office as a Carpet-bagger, and has since taken a more hopeless view of the Southern Negro than in his ardent youth, having, as he says, at 60 or 70 reversed the opinions he held at 30 or 40. Possibly in these years he has learned some things that are not true. Wordsworth forgot the chivalry of his youthful sonnets and became the "Lost Leader." Still bidding crouch while the rest did Governor Chamberlain's whole discussion is based on the assumption that there is a serious difference between the two races in "original capacity," so that "the Negro is capable of being raised by any education to an equality with the white man" in his hopeless, "ineradicable" "race inferiority." For this assumption there is no evidence whatever in ethnology or comparative psychology. It is simply asserted, against the evidence of equal physical size and strength, and against the evidence of numerous cases where, in these few years, education has been allowed to do its work. Equally based on Governor Chamberlain's history. The Negroes he says were forcibly transplanted" to these shores. Not at all. They have grown up here, native born. It was their ancestors that were forcibly brought here, at the same time that multitudes of our white ancestors were forcibly transplanted here, white slaves sold to service in Virginia and Massachusetts. But he says again: My study does not disclose another instance anywhere of the emancipation from chattel slavery of a people or race without exertion on the part of the enslaved people or race. Till the actual and complete triumph of the armies of the Union, the Negro race of the United States, which was in slavery, lifted no single hand, struck no single blow, for its own freedom. The significance of this fact is tremendous an indication of character and capacity. Possibly this captain of Negro troops thought differently forty years ago. Then he might have excused unarmed Negroes from not rising in insurrection. People in ornal subjection never rise when they can get no arms; they only run away. So Slatin Boy submitted to slavery under a Negro master. But the fact is that the Governor's "study" needs to be enlarged. As a boy he probably read the story of a nation of slaves led out of Egypt, emancipated without striking a single blow for freedom, and in just the time now past since Negro emancipation they were able to conquer Canaan. Then came another peried when they were carried captive, made slaves, and were then returned by Persian deliverers without stalking a blow, and a very decent people they made, our Master and his Twelve from the stock. Again they were tarribly oppressed by every nation in Europe, and again were freed without a blow by the Rothschilds and Jacob Schiffs. Will Governor Chamberlain mention as many parallel cases where white "chattel slaves" have secured their freedom by fighting? We will not stop to consider what Governor Chamberlain says of the impossibility of "blending the two races by intermarriage." Marriage is a matter with which we do not middle—every man to his taste—but we do know that the "blending" is easy enough. A much more serious difference which we have with Governor Chamberlain concern his statement that we must "undo, as far as possible, what we have heretofore done for the Negro since his emancipation—namely, the inspiring in him the hope or dream of sharing with the white race a social or political equality." He says: These things are impossibilities within With social equality we have no more to do than with marriage, as that goes by personal favor; but political equality is not impossible. One does not need to go to Cuba to see that it is possible, for it is a fact, no further off than Philadelphia, with its seventy thousand Negroes, or Maryland as well. Governor Chamberlain declares—and no one should know better than he, for he was Governor of South Carolina at the time and did his best to stem the corruption—that the sudden gift of political equality to the Negro "resulted directly in shocking and unbearable misgovernment whereafter the Negro race predominated"—that is, in South Carolina and Mississippi, and prehaps Lousiana. True and it was to be expected where intelligent white people all sulked. Things were different in Georgia and North Carolina. Governor Chamberlain proceeds to palliate, and seems to justify lynching for assaults by Negro on white women. A reply to this it is not worth while to make, but it is worth while to say that the remedy he proposes—namely, a great moral crusade among the Negroes against the particular crime of rape—would be more likely to suggest than to prevent the crime. It is not a specially Negro crime. There are as many cases of this crime reported committed in New York State by white men as by Negroes in all South. Having thus briefly expressed our difference with Governor Chamberlain as to his facts, we are compelled to agree with him that the proposal to protect Negro political rights in the Southern States by Congressional legislation is quite futile. It will be impossible to enact a constitutional law that will really limit the representation of the States that have shut out the Negro vote. It may be impossible however to compel here and there a name to be put on the register but this will accomplish little. But this is about the limit of our acceptance of Governor Chamberlain's conclusions. He condemns President Roosevelt for asking Mr. Washington to stop to lunch, because of "the feeling universal, or nearly so, among the white people of the South." But what of that? President Roosevelt is no slave of of the Southern "feeling." He can take his choice between Southern feeling and Northern feeling. Governor Chamberlain lives, summers, in West Brookfield, Mass., and very few respectable people in Massachusetts would object to sitting at table with Mr. Washington. Massachusetts "feeling" is as well worth following as that of South Carolina. Governor Chamberlain says that however the President may have thought it right to sit at table with Mr. Washington "the principle laid down by the Apostle Paul would have restrained him from this act." Indeed! Not at all. That principle is that of self-denial for the sake of not leading a weak brother into sin. But our Southern friends will not thank Governor Chambarlain for classing them with "weak brothers." We do not so regard them. Paul asserted another principle, that of liberty, in the case of the social and religious prejudices of the Jews against the Gentiles, "to whom we gave place in the way of subjection, no not for an hour." We are not acquainted with Dr. Orum and cannot, thus, deny what Governor Chamberlain says as to his competency to ful a $1,200 position as Collector of the port of Charleston. The presumption is that he is competent. But this we must speak of, Governor Chamberlain's assertion as to the President's motives: They could have been no other than the hope and determination to gain for himself the support of the Negro race in South Carolina, through their delegates in the next National Republican Convention, in his candidacy for nomination for our next President. His work has been effective in that end . . . it is ignoble in its motives. Such a charge is unworthy of a gentleman of- Governor Chamberlain's character. Sufficient other reason has been given and should have been believed rather than that such an "Ignoble" motive should have been attributed to an honored and honest man. We will not stop to discuss Governor Chamberlain's treatment of the Indianola case. Suffice it to say that the people of Indianola compelled the resignation of a competent postmistress solely because she was colored, and refused to receive her back. Nor is the suppression of the post office such a tyrannous or unparalleled act as is represented. Governor Chamberlain in one breath says that we cannot indict a whole community, and in the next asks why the Federal courts did not punish those who compelled her resignation. Closing the post office was the only way those who would not have a postmaster. Governor Chamberlain's conclusion is that the old-fashioned virtues of patience, kindness and fair dealing "exhibited toward the Negro" with "the granting of the ordinary civil right," "will do more, far more, than schools and college, than churches or missions, to roll back the tide of bitterness and violence." It sound like saying: Treat the dependent race patiently and kindly, as you would your horse or your dog, and don't bother to help it raise two far for "his lot is and will be to serve. I expect no more." We would say to the Negro race. Get your schools, colleges and churches; get your farms and your shops; acquire character and education and wealth; be patient, but especially patient in persistently, yet prudently, demanding and exercising your political and civil rights. Expect to be recognizd as other citizens are recognized, but do not sulk when not recognized; accept office when it comes to you, but do not hanker after it or demand it; accept social favors, but do not ask them. And what we say unto you we say unto the white men just the same. College~ Dots.

A Thanksgiving Thought By MINNA IRVING DR fields the frost has gleaned, and woods. The wind has waned late, And gardens, where the last late flowers Droop in the chilly air; Ex yet the little twinkling stars Among the clouds are born, The new moon in the evening sky; Displays her carving horn. Behold, the grain is harvested, The birds have Lown away, The corn is shelled, the cats are thresled; It is Thanksgiving Day; And yonder, high above the trees, And meadows crisped and sere, The Reaper hangs His sickle up Until another year. Delicious Drinks and Dainty Dishes AN UNEXPECTED THANKSGIVING By EDWARD JONAS WEEK from to-day will be Thanksgiving," said Clarence Martin to his friend, Frank Wheeler, as they were walking home from school, frank, though but twelve years of age, had to help support his widowed mother and his two sisters, Bell and Edith. He knew there was no fun for him on Thanksgiving, so he answered with a deep sigh, "Yes, Thanksgiving will be here almost too soon. "Almost too soon!" cried Clarence at the top of his voice. "Why, I can't wait till it comes. My uncle and aunt are coming to visit us, and we will have a very good time. But-I must leave you now. Don't forget the contest," and with a cheerful good-bye, the boys parted. That night both Clarence and Frank were busily bending over their books, for the teacher had promised to give a fine prize to the boy who could answer all the questions in the geographical contest. "I can't learn this," sighed Clarence. "But you must try, my son," answered his mother, "and you will surely succeed." Clarence and Frank were the best pupils in the school, and they knew the prize would belong either to one or the other. The day of the contest came, and all were ready to begin. At the end it was found that the prize belonged to Frank Wheeler, and the principal handed him a $3, gold piece, with many congratulations. For the first time Clarence was fearful, and he determined to avenge himself. As Thanksgiving was drawing near he thought this a good time to play a joke. He was walking down the street the afternoon of the contest, when he met his chum, James Elburn, and, telling him of his plan, begged him to meet him on the corner that evening. Clarence came home that afternoon feeling ill at ease. His restlessness did not escape unnoticed by his sister Evelyn; who was watching him closely, and when he said he was going out that evening she followed him. Clarence went straight to the corner, where he met James. "Well," said the latter, "are you ready to tell me your plan?" "Yes," answered Clarence, "but you had better come up in our barn." "You know," he began, "that Frank has won the prize, when I wanted it so much." "Well, what of it? What has that to do with fun?" questioned James. "I will tell you," answered Clarence. "We will fill, bugs and, other things with stones and sand, pack them in a basket, put them on Frank's doorstep and watch the fun." "Capital!" shouted James. "Hush!" some one will hear you," said Clarence. But he was already overheard by Evelyn, and she in her mind was forming a plan. "To-morrow night," continued Clarence, "we will meet here and fill the bags so all will be ready. But now we "HE WAS ALREADY OVERHEARD." must be going, and so they parted. In his own home Frank Wheeler was exceedingly happy, for now, he thought, through his good fortune, they could have a Thanksgiving dinner. But, after considering that they all needed clothes, it was decided that his money should be spent in another way. Frank felt disappointed about it, but his spirits kept up bravely and A Bebold, the grain is harvested, The birds have corn-easy, The corn is stelled, the cats are throated, It is Thanksgiving Day; And yonded, high above the trees, And meadows crisped and sore, The Reaper hangs His sickle up Until another year. Drinks My Dishes THANKSGIVING he waited patiently, thinking that, perhaps, he could get extra work. He tried all over, but never in all the days that passed could he find any, so Thanksgiving, must pass without the hoped for dinner. The night before the plan had been partly carried out Evelyn Martin stealthily crept from the house and hurried to the barn. She carried various parcels in her arms and seemed frightened less she might be seen. "I will baffle them," she said to herself. "They shall not play such mean tricks on a poor family," and she hurriedly took the bags from the large basket, and put others in their places. MAKIN A When she finished she stole back to the house. She noticed Clarence smile mischievously, and thought that he would not see "the fun." All that day Frank Wheeler continued his search for work, but had been sadly disappointed. "Be'of good cheer, my boy," said his mother, "and trust in God. He will surely help us." "Mamma," said little Bill, "are we going to have turkey and pumpkin pie, like other people?" This wistful query pierced Frank's tender heart, and he thought, "If I only had some money!" Then he broke down completely. "Don't take it so hard," said his mother, and she coaxed a smile to his lips; but the boy's heart was heavy with discouragement. "The great day at last!" exclaimed Clarence Martin, as he thought of his friend. That night two boys stole to the barn and carried the huge basket into the street. They went directly to the Wheeler cottage, and, rapping loudly, set their burden on the steps and hid near the window. The knock was soon answered by Mrs. Wheeler, who exclaimed, "Clarencel come and see this—a large basket of goodies!" The hearts of the boys under the window gave a sting of remorse. But what was their astonishment when they heard the words, "Turkey, pumpkin pie, apples and pudding," called MAKING THE CHOICE. out by Frank. They could not believe their cars. At last Martin whispered, "Some one must have heard us, for I thought I heard a step that night in the barn." And both boys returned home, each secretly pleased that their plan had THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENT. miscarried, and that there was joy in the little cottage instead of disappointment and indignation.-Detroit Free Press.

HOM the wilderness beyond Caucomgomac Lake, in Maine, comes the story of how John McEarchern rode a bear two miles and came back with brunl's skin and twelve pounds of his hams ready to be sliced into steaks. Had the story been told of any other man it might not be believed, but as McEarchern once fought a moose with a fence rail and followed a wildcat into a barn chamber where he killed it with a pitchfork; the people up North see nothing surprising in the announcement that he rode the biggest bear ever killed in Caucomgomac and came home unharmed and victorious.

McEachern took along his rifle, and not until he was miles from camp did he recall that if was loaded only with duckshot—nile to a shell, which would not much more than tickle a bear in case he should meet such game, but rather than walk back to camp he kept on, being a half mile ahead of Russell, who is a slow traveler and also deaf as a post. When McEachern came in sight of the first trap he saw a big bear in it, and ran up to finish the animal, but as he was about to fire, another bear, bigger than the one in the trap, bounced out of the bushes and made straight for him. There was no time to think whether the duck shot would stop the bear or only make him madder, and McEachern let drive. There was a double charge of powder behind those duck shot, and the old rifle kicked McEachern head over heels. HOICE.

The with muff into the d heels. If the bear was mad at first, he was madder when the shot dug into him, and after a moment's hesitation he renewed his rush upon the trapper, while the bear in the trap growled encouragement. McEachern was in no trim just then to light ugly bears, and he yelled to Russell to come along and help, forgetting that Russell, who could not have heard him at ten yards, was half a mile back on the path. McEachern then did the only thing he could do—ran for it. The bear followed and showed much the greater speed, so that escape in flight was out of the question. Then, for about ten minutes, man and bear played tag among the trees, with no advantage on either side until McEachern tripped on a root and fell. The bear, close up, stumbled on the same root and went half down. McEachern in his excitement lost his feet again as quickly as he had risen and fell plump across the bear. Before he had time to jump up the bear was up and away, with snarls of rage and surprise. McEachern mechanically held on tight, with both hands gripped firmly into the thick fur of the bear. When the bear tried to turn his head McEachern took a hold on the stubby cars to prevent this. Over ridges and down hollows they went, occasionally stumbling over stumps and fallen trees, and then they came to a deserted "ram-down"—another name for the toboggan of the woods. It was a logging road as steep as the roof of a house and down it the bear plunged. It looked like sure death, for the bear would certainly take a tumble somewhere between the top and the bottom, and then McEachern if not killed in the crash, would he turn to bits. Suddenly it occurred to McEachern that he had in his pocket a long hunting knife, presented to him a few weeks ago by a city sport, and quickly he fished it out, opening the blade with his teeth. They were now half way down the slope, and there was no time to lose. Raising the knife at arm's length, McEachern plunged it into the bear's neck to the handle. A fierce snarl, a gushing of hot blood and a slight slackening of speed were the immediate results. Another stab, and another, and the mad race was over. The bear stumbled, halted, and, with muffled growls, went headlong into the ditch at the roadside. McEachern rolled off on the safe side and got behind a tree. The bear, although mortally hurt, presently came on to renew the battle. It was not safe to get near enough to use the knife again. A big birch sled stake lay near by, and McEachern grabbed it. When the bear came within range, McEachern put all his strength into the swing of the stake. The birch landed on the bear's nose with a crack like the snapping of a broomstick, and that ended the fight, for down went the big fellow, groggy, and another slash with the knife settled him. Then he skinned him. At 4 o'clock the next morning McEachern reached camp and gave the door a kick fit to take it off the hinges. "Who's there—and is it you, John?" came sleply from within. "Yes, it's me, and no thanks to ye," replied the bear rider. "Let down the bar and build up a fire, or ye'll be having a corpse on yere hands from the want to grub." The bar was let down and in strode, John McEachern, with the glistening black bearskin, all stained with red, on his shoulder. He threw a bloody bundle at Russell. "Cook a good bit of that," commanded he, "and tell me what came of ye, and didn't ye mind losing 'ye're pardner?" "I waked myself lame lookin' for ye," said Russell. "I thought ye skipped." John McEachern only grunted. Then he ate two pounds of the bear steak. THANKSGIVING DINNER Euc points on half shell. Cream of tomato soup. Salted almonds. Olives. Hoast turkey. Cranberry sauce.

In olden times the Thanksgiving celebration had a threefold significance—the spetitive, festal and religious phases. Except in obscure corners of New England the Thanksgiving eve raffle of turkeys, geese, ducks and chickens is no longer a part of the annual program. During these raffles the shrewd Yankee "banker" never lost an opportunity to unload tough birds when the gambling fever was at its height. But if we have no longer the rattle as a Thanksgiving accompaniment we still have its legitimate successor—the very exciting and diverting game of keno. This game is carried on in secluded back rooms of many prominent places during the festal season, when it is the height of the "dead game sport's" ambition to win a Thanksgiving turkey; and he will often spend the price of numerous turkeys for the satisfaction of winning one. Like the rattle, the old time choosing matches are also almost extinct, though they still obtain in some sections of the country, notably the far West.

HOLT the wilderness beyond Caucongomac Lake, in Maine, comes the story of how John McEarther rode a bear two miles and came back with brunel's SNATCHED FROM THE PAULS. Facing danger to save life is always herloe, but to save life as a certain brakeman lately did it requires not only bravery, but rapid and intelligent action. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat prints a thrilling account of an adventure on the Missouri Pacific Railroad. The train was late and heavily loaded, and on a long down grade the engineer, to make up for lost time, "turned her loose," and the cars flew over the hill at a tremendous, speed. About half-way down the grade Brakeman Rosenbrook's pline went out, and he went forward to the locomotive to get a light. On that little incident hung the life of a two-year-old baby. As the brakeman entered the cab the engineer said to the fireman: "What's on the track ahead, Bill?" "Looks like a man sitting on the rail," answered Bill. "Guess he'll move when we whistle for the crossing." The heavy train rushed on, and a moment later the whistle sounded. Then the bundle moved, but instead of getting off the track, it stepped right between the rails and calmly waited. "It's a baby!" groomed the engineer, as he shut off steam and called for brakes. But no power could stop that train in that short distance. The fireman was speechless; the engineer, with gray face and starling eyes, was sounding his whistle, hoping to scare the infant from the track. Suddenly the window of the cab was thrown open, and Brakeman Rosenbrook crept out and along the narrow running-board. Clinging to the handrail with one hand, he made his way along the side of the swaying locomotive, and in a moment had reached the pilot. The shrill danger-signal, sounding continuously, brought a woman to the door of a small farmhouse near the track. With a scream she started toward her baby. But only the one grab which Rosenbrook would have time to make stood between the child and death; and the shock of that grab might throw the man from the pilot and cost him his own life. "When within a few yards of the little girl," says the brakeman, "I saw her lift her face and look at me. Her blue eyes were troubled. Something was wrong, but she did not know what it was." The moment arrived. The locomotive was upon the child, when, with one grasp, Rosenbrook swept the little girl from her feet and jerked her clear of the track. So great was the shock that the man was thrown backward against the pilot. With a great effort he steadled himself and held on to Alice. A hundred yards farther on the heavy train came to a standstill, and Rosenbrook stepped from the pilot. The baby had not uttered a cry, but when the rescuer stood on firm ground she whispered: "My mamma wants me." At the same moment the mother rushed up and clasped the little girl to her heart. The engineer and conductor came running forward and shock Rosenbrook's hands, incoherently murmuring all sorts of promises about "reporting to headquarters" and "promotions." But Rosenbrook simply begged a match, lighted his pipe, climbed to the top of the train and signaled to go ahead. FEAT OF FOOTBALL PLAYER. A party of college men were discussing the football season at the University Club, when one who had just returned from a visit to St. Paul recounted a story now current in the Twin Cities that has to do with "Pudge" Hefflinger, the giant guard of the Yale teams of a few years ago. Hefflinger was driving along Hennepin avenue, Minneapolis, when he saw a runaway team with only a woman in the carriage coming down the street. Hefflinger drove his horse to the curb, handed the reins to a passer-by, turned his trousers legs well above the tops of his shoes, and made ready to stop the runaway. Getting a good bit of speed on as he ran in the direction in which the team was headed, he was able to make a "flying tackle" about the neck of the frightened horse, and held on like grim death until he had been dragged about half a block. Then the runaway was ready to give it up, as the grip and the 276 pounds or so of the old football giant was too much for him. "Pudge" brushed the dust from his clothing, turned down his trousers legs, handed the reins of the now thoroughly quieted horse to the woman, and went back to his own team. "I'm sadly out of practice," quietly remarked Heffellinger to the man who had charged of his horse, for that's the first time anything ever gained so much ground on me after I'd tackled it."—New York Times. Overconfidence. The two strangers who were standing at a downtown corner crossed the street and accosted a young man on the opposite corner. "Will you please,tell me," said one of them, "which is the best way to go from here to Seventy-second street?" "Well," replied the young man, "the best way, of course, is to take an automobile. If you can't do that, I suggest a street car as the next best." "Thank you," said the stranger. "I was so certain from your appearance that you would give a civil answer to a civil question that I bet a $2 bill on that proposition with my friend here. I see I have lost. One can't always judge from appearance. Good morning, sir."—Chicago Tribune. --- SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1904. Mrs. S. A. Chisholm of Darien was in the city this week.
