DiSCfLiNING A HUMORIST.
Hugh ndexter. author of that book
of droll a d unique humor, “Tiberius
Smith," which was published this
month by the Harpers. finds that the
way of the humorous transgressor is
sometimes hard.
On the publication of his book he at
once sent a copy to a dear old lady in
his native state. Maine. who has known
him since he was a child and has al-
ways felt an interest in his welfare.
But. alas! the dear old lady takes
humor all too literally. She read» Pen-
dexter‘s delightful account of discover-
ing the town in Vermont whose inhabi-
tants didn't know that the civil war
was over, and this part of the book es-
pecially Jarred her, whereupon she
wrote to him:
“That part of your book is a its from
beginning to end. and so I fear that
other parts must be also. Hugh, 1 am
disappointed in you. I asked father to
read about that town. too. and he
agrees with me that it isn't so. i hadn’t
ever,expected you to write anything
that isn't true. Why. there never was
any such a town as that or any such
people, and you can't make me believe
(there was.” '
Pendexter is vainly trying. now. to
win back his old friend's respect—-
Harper's. '

SAYS DEMOCRACY WILL WIN.
Leader Murphy Seems Sure of Getting
New York State This Year.
NEW YORK. August
F. Murphy. leader of Tammany Hall,
gave out all interview today. in which
he declared thRI his view of the politi-
cal situation in New York state is
that “the Democracy is going to win
this year." Of Mr. Bryan. the Tam-
many chieftan said:
"Mr. Bryan is much stronger in the
state than he was either misfit} or
1900. Why? 1 do not exactly know.
hilt the fact remains that there is a
variety of evidence on which to base
belief in his increased popularity.
"One reason. i think, lies in, the dis-
satisfaction with Roosevelt aiid Roos.
eveltian policies—too much autocratic
rule and swinging of the big stick.
A great many men who sided with the
Republican party ill the past. will not
do so this year. it means something

ing to vote for him.”
"Will lilr. Brynn, at the head of the
national ticket. be a help to the state
Democratic ticketiinstead of a drag,
': as 'in the past?“ was asked.
"Yes. i think the name will be of
We en-
dorse the ticket and platform heartily,
and shall go right to work for it."
Mr. Murphy said that he had no

would be an open fight.
FLEET LEAVES NEW ZEALAND.
Rear Admiral Sperry Received by the

AUCKLAND. August Iii—The fol-
lowing message from ReanAdmiral
Sperry. of the American batieship
fleet. bidding the colony of New Zea-
land farewell. was received by the
governor. Lord Plunket, on the eve of
the ileet's departure from here today.
“The commandenin-chief of the At~
j' lantic fleet, in behalf of his govern
.. ment and the officers and men of the
fleet. expresses to you and through you
to the people of New Zealand his hear-
ty thanks for the cordial reception and
the generous hospitality accorded the
fleet by the government and people of
the domain. The warm friendship and
esteem existing between Great Britain
and America cannot fail to be strength-
ened by a visitor of this nature which
helps the two nations to a stronger
realisation of their close relationship
and their common interests and fos-
ters a symapthy and a mutual under-
standing more binding than treaties."

EXCURSION OF THE ELKS.
Stamford and Nor-walk People Had an
Enjoyable Trip.
There were, by actual count. 1,036
excursionists aboard the iron steam-
boat Sirius when she left Wilson's
Point.‘yesterday morning, bound for
Coney island. It was the first excur-
sion of the Stamford lodge of Elks.
and. as is customary with that order,
all the arrangements were made on
an elaborate scale. There was some
disappointment at the size of the
crowd. It had been expected that
nearly 2.000 would go. Eight coaches
were fitted on the special train which
left Stamford at 8 o’clock. and among
the passengers were a large number
from Greenwich and Port Chester. The
crowd at Wilson's Point was augment-
ed a good deal by people from Nor-
waik and Bridgeport, but all told. it
footed up only a. trifle over an even
thousand. And of these women and
children were decidedly a majority.
it was more pleasant for the excur-
sionists that the crowd was not larger.
but not so profitable for the Elks. How-
ever. the lodge arranged the outing
primarily for pleasure. and as it will
not lose on the venture. there was no
disappointment in this respect.
The excursion was without special
incident. no- accident occurring. but
the party. had an enjoyable time. Wil-
son's Point was reached on the return
shortly after 11 o’clock. The special
train was delayed on the branch for
some time near the Boesse-Peppard
factory and many local people left it
at this point. The Stamford excursion-
ists and those from other points were
obliged. 0! course. to wait.
"A hammock large enough for two?"
echoed the dealer. “Do you want it
with or without?" "With or without
what?" asked the girl. .“Crowdlng.”
replied the dealer. smiling at her in-
nocence. Then she'gaver‘her order in
a whisper.-Phliadelphia Ledger:

POPULAR AMUSEMENTB. .
HOYT’S THEATRE, FRIDAY. AUG. 21
There seems to be no limit‘to tho‘
number of high class attractions which
Manager Hoyt‘will introduce to the
Norwalk‘ theatre-goers this season.
judging by the way he has started in.
Not content with the high quality of
the previous show he now announces
the far-famed and po ulnr "Yankee
Doodle Girls,” ohe of t e best extrav-
aganza companies ever organized and
easily the leading musical aggregation
of the big Empire circuit. with its ple-
thora of pretty girls in sumptuous and
dealing cestumes; its quartet of en-
perior fun makers. and the cream of
the' vaudeville world in an ollo of
sterling acts. “At the Springs" is the
title of the opening skit, and intro-
duces Harry Seyon, Harry Hearn,
James Hazelton. Julia Seyon, and the
well-known singing bird. Sadie Hells
ted. and the entire company in spright-
ly bits of nonsense in which fun and
music will predominate. The other
farce is styled “Seeing South Nor;
walk." and ls‘even funnier than the
opening skit and one of the most elah.
orately staged affairs ever seen. It is ,
in this portion of the bill ‘that the
pretty chorus girls will distinguish
themselves in some bewildering
marches and ensemble numbers. while
Shiite Hehsted. Julia Seyon, Will Dn-
vis. Harry-Heard and other principals. .
will lead in the feast of song. During
the olio the following acts will be
seen: The Grotesque Randolps. com}
edy acrobats; the Seyons. in a new» .,
er
sketch entitled No ns-villg; Collins
& Hawley, in Thos Stranded.Song’,
and Dance Boys; the.Gladstone Sisw
tors in a dainty sistervact; Davis &~
Hazelton. .conversationalists and par-.3
ody singers. and last. but not least,‘
the Big Noise. Sadie Heusted.
