HE DECLlNED WITHOUT THANKS.

Tim Diner Didn’t \Vant Mustard Regard-
icss’ui‘ 1119 Opinion of the Actor.

filial-lee Matthews. the celebrated
English comedian, was the unhappy
possessor morbid sensibility to
things which most people would con.
sider too insignificant to notice, says
the Detroit Free ress. Having an
appointmentwith a friend, Matthews
arrived at the inn where they were to
meet some time in advance. Upon en-
tening 'the dining-room (he found its
sole occupant, a commercial gentle-
man. earnestly enjoying a round of
boiled beef. Matthews sat down by
the fire and took up a newSpaper,
meaning to while away the time until
his friend should appear. Occasion-
ally he._ glanced from the paper to the
beef and from the beef to the man
until he began to fidget. Pretending
to stop reading, he addressed the gen-
tleman in a tone of indignation, ill-
disguised, and with a forced smile,
he said: “I beg your pardon, sir, but
I don‘t think you are aware that you
have no mustard.”

The pardon addressed looked up in
surprise, mentally resenting this gra-
tuitous interference with his tastes,
and bowed coldly. Matthews again
resumed his paper, but curious to see
if his well-meant hint had been acted
upon, furtively looked over his paper,
and finding the plate still void of mus—
tard concluded that the man was deaf.
So raising his voice to a tone of sar-
castic ascerbity, he said, with syllabic
precision, ‘"Are—you—aware—sir—that
you— are— eating—boiled—beef—with-
out—mustard '2”

Again a stiff bow and no reply. Once
more Matthews affected to read,
though in reality he was nursing his
wrath. At last, seeing the man’s ob-
stinate violation of conventionality
and good taste, he jumped up and in
a most arbitrary an . defiant manner
snatched the mustarc pot, banged it
down under‘the defauter’s eyes and
and shouted:

‘ Confound it sir, you shall take
mustmd!” aftei which shot he ab-
ruptiy left the room.

STORIES OF PREACHERS.

How Spurgoon Rose to the Head of His
Class in School.

London Truth is responsible for this
story: A bishop of St. David’s con-
fided to an old Welch clergyman his
difficulty in mastering the Welsh dou-
ble L. The parson replied: “Put the
tip of your apostolical tongue to the
roof of your episcopal mouth, my lord,
and then hiss like a gander.”

The late Charles H. Spurgeon distin-
guished himself in school by a contin—
uous session on the “dunce bench”
throughout one cold winter. The
bench happened to be next to the stove.
At last the teacher suspected possum
tactics and had all the. seats reserved,
bringing the bench next to the door.
Spurgeon at once rose to the head of
the class.

A distinguisher preacher of some-
what arbitrary manners was engaged
to preach in Belgravia and purchased
a new but for the occasion. He was
met outside his residence by a young
man who was to guide him to the
church. His guide, after what the
person thought was a rude stare and
smile, said: “I beg your pardon, sir,
but your hat—” “Ah, yes; never mind
the hat, but mind your own business,”
the parson interrupted, curtly, and the
young man was silenced. The people
they met stared and smiled, too.
“Strange how many people notice
when one has a new but,” thought the
parson. The church was reached and
the worshippers approaching naturally
turned to observe the noted preacher.
The vicar met him at the vestry door
to welcome him, but hesitating, said:
“Pardon me, canon, but pray why do
you wear your but so?” The tile was
doffed and the outside was found to
be still coveled with the white paper,
which the absent-minded div‘ine had
not removed. ....

THE SPANISH CAPTAIN’S PRIDE.

Though Beaten He \Vanted a Certificate
oi Bravery. ‘

Spanish pride is proverbial. An in-
cident in the life of Lord Cochrane,
the Earl of Dudenald, is illustrative.
Lord Cochrane, in command of a little
brig, the Speedy, in broad daylight
captured the Spanish frigate, the
Game. The Speedy carried a crew of
fifty men, and threw a broadside of
twenty-eight pounds of metal; the
Gamo a crew of three hundred men
and a broadside of over one hundred
pounds. The Speedy had previously,

'through a ruse, escaped from a large

Spanish ship in the night, and some
of her officers rather criticised the ac—
tion of her captain on the occasion—in
that he did not make aneifort to cap-
ture the Spaniard. This made Coch
rane mad. So when the enemy came
up he hove to, as if about to surren
der. Suddenly a put! of wind carried
him alongside. He grappled and board
ed. The Speedy lay solow her oppo-
nent was unable to depress the guns
suflicient to hit her, while the English-
man made every shot tell. The board-
ers. after stout opposition, carried the
enemy. When the action was over the

Spanish captain requested some cer-'

tificate from Dudenald as to the way
in which he had fought the ship. He
received one: "This certifies that Cap-
tain of the Spanish frigate Game
fought his issue like a true Spaniard."
The defeated gentleman was greatly
pleased, and so was the nation, for on
retu1ning home he was immediately
given another and more important
command. ——Army and Navy Joulnal.

AN ACT OF TENDER SYMPATl-lv. I

Which Sent One Young Man to Cuba-with
a Lighter Heart.

A recent traveller to Spain, writing
in Blackwood’s Magazine, describes a
touching Scene witnessed at the de-
parture of a regiment for Cuba. All
iayllong there had been heard 'the
measured tread of_soldiers, marching
through the streets; all day long gaily
bedecked boats had been passing to

1nd from the vessel that was to take 7

:hem to Havana.

The twilight had begun to deepen '

when the correspondent saw “a start-
?ing and pretty sight”—t‘he impetuous
action of a. portly, good-looking and“
well-dressed lady, who noticed a young
soldier walking dejectedly along down
the pier in his travelling gray, with a
knapsack strapped over his shoulders.

All the rest of the men had friends,
their novias, mothers, relatives, and
made the usual gallant effort to look
elated and full of hope. This lad had
no one, and it might be devined that
he was carrying a desolate heart over-
teas.

The handsome woman burst from
her group of friends, took the boy’s
hand and sai : “My son has already
gone to Cuba.
at Andalusia and sailed two months
1gc. You may meet him, Pepe G.;
:ake this kiss to him.” She leaned and
Kissed his cheek.

An English boy would have shown
1wkwardness, but these graceful
Southerners are never at a loss for a.
pretty gesture and a prettier word.

The boy flushed with pleasure, and
still holding the lady’s 'hand, said,
with quite a natural gallantry, Without
:mirk or silly smile. “And may I not
rake one for myself as well, Senora?”.

The lady reddened, laughed a little
nervously, and bent and kissed him
gain, to the frantic applause of sold—
‘ers and civilians, while the boy walk-
ed on braced and happy.

 

PIN HOLES IN THE CHECKS. _
The Only One of the Cashier’s Precautions
that was Overlooked.

In the course of a lecture delivered
recently on chemical tests used in dis-
covering by the ink the age of docu-
ments, and whether there have been
interpolations, Prof. C. A. ,Doremus
told of a curious discovery in the case
of a raised check, made by his father,
who is an expert in chemistry and in
documents. The interests involved in
this case were very large, and it was
not practicable that the original check
should be tampered with or chemically
treated. For purposes of testimony an
enlarged photograph of the check was
taken by Dr. Doremus, who was called
as an expert in the case. The first
trial resulted in no decision, and on
the second trial, what purported to be
the original check was produced. It
was handed to the cashier of the bank
for identification. He examined it and
said:

“This is not the original check.”

“How do you know that?”
manded the amazed lawyer.

“Because in the heading of the orig-
inal check I picked a hole in the cen-
tre of each of the ‘o’s’ with a pin,”
was the reply. “This check has not
those holes.”

In all other respects the check seem-1

k-anthEss vs. ETIQUETTE.

 

low the Former Trimuphcd 'Over the
Latter at St. Petersliurg.

There is. an excellent story of a tri-
12mph for simple American kindliness
and common sense ov e1 diplomatic
etiquette and stiff coult procedure
The story concerns a fol .1191 Minister
of the United States in St. Petelsbuig
at one of those elabmate and vety fel-
inal receptions of levees which the
Emperor and Empress give on New
Year’s Day, and several times later
during the Winter. All the diplomats
stand in line in their order of prece—
dence, and their majesties walk down
the line to exchange greetings with
each in turn. Onthis occasion the
Empress, now the dowager Empress.
was not present, having just given
birth to one of the younger Princesses.
It seems that the good wife of the

American Minister was in this coun-

try. occupied with a similar domestic
duty.

The Emperor came down the line
and asked after the health of each of
the gentlemen present, at the same
time exchanging the usual seasonable
greetings. Then. as was also his cus-
tom, he asked of each what was the
news from home. This always means
in the diplomatic world: “How is my
good brother, the Emperor of Ger-
many 9" or, “What is the news flom
my deal sister, the Queen of Great
Blitain and Ireland?” It is supposed
that all of the questions were an-
swered with pleasant infmmation
about his fellow rulels of the globe.
So when he came to the American Min-
ister he did ask the usual question:
“I hope you have good news from
home.” Of course he did, and our
full-hearted representative could not
keep it a secret. “Yes, thank your Maj-
esty, excellent news; it is a boy, and
weighs twelve pounds.”

It is needless to say how this per."
fectly natural answer smote the as
sembledcorps hip and thigh. It is.
said that a widespread tittet was
scarcely decorously suppressed. But
the good-natured man and father, even
if he was a Czar, pretended not to
notice it, and said that he was truly
glad to hear it, and he hoped the Min--'
ister would convey his heartiest con-
gratulations to Mme. Minister. He
then passed on to the next men in the
line extending his greetings. It seems
that them-concealed disorder among
his colleagues made no impression

upon the good-hearted and happy
American. He had forgotten some:
thing. Coming out of his place he fol-.

lowed the Emperor, and tapping him
on the shoulder, said: “I beg your ma-
jesty’s pardon. I failed to inquire af—'
ter the health of the Empress and the
little Princess.” The Emperor thanked
him again with great kindness and as-
sured him that both were doing as well
as could be expected. And from all ac-
counts this 1ast exchange of domestic
compliments provoked the line into ac-
tual laughter. 3

This was the one good stoiy of the
great winter capital for days and
weeks. It was whispeied around at.
parties and tittered over teacups, un-

til at last reached the ears of the 1e-'

covering Empress. And with the kind-’

neSs which hasalways characterized-
her, as well as her late husband, she
resolved to teach the small-minded
court. circle a lesson. So at the next
assemblage she made occasion to seek
out the American Minister as an ob-'
ject of her especial favor, and later,I
at the banquet, in a particularly audi-l
ble voice, thanked him for his kind in-
quiries after her health during her re-
cent illness—Washington Post.

WAR . series IliEVITABLE”:

Hale Believes That Trouble
Cannot Now Be Avoided.

V’csitlngton, March 22.——“The coun-
try is on the verge of war. I- feel no'th—
lng tan prevent. hostilities.” Senator
Eugene Hale, of Maine, said this to a
rtep lter last night. He was seated in
the libr any of his elegantly artistic
mans: on on Sixteenth street.

Senator Hale as is‘ well known, is
ultra. conservative as regards our for-
eign relations. ~His attitude in the
Senate as to the Cuban question has
been often described as pro-Spanish.
Continuing, Senator Hale said:

“The speech of Senator Proctor ap—
pears to have wrought such an impres-
sion on the public mind that the Presi—
dent feels unable to withstand the de-
mand for action. President McKinley
has pursued a. dignified and statesman-
like course. He has done all he could
to avoid plunging the country into war.
He now feels that in view of what has
occurred that it is his duty to let Con-
gress assume its share of responsibil-
ity. This he will probably do at an
early day."

Continuing, he said: “I have been
conservative as regards Cuba. My at-
titude has been consistent and in ac-
cordance with my earnest convictions.
Now that the crisis has arrived, per-
haps, it will be best for what I fear is
inevitable to occur and have it over.
Congress in its present frame of mind
will take some radical action—action
that means war. It will cost the Unit-
ed States possibly $500,000,000 and the
business interests a. much larger sum.
I hoped that Congress would have an
early adjournment and have left the
President to have settled the Cuban
question alone. Events have crowded
on too rapidly and the President has
been carried off his feet. The Maine
Incident is going to be secondary. The
speech of Senator Proctor delivered in
his cool, unimpassioned, and I may say,
judicial manner, has invoked the cri-
sis.”

Senator Hale was asked if war was
certain. “It is imminent," was the re-
sponse. “There' are many more of the
Senate than is popularly supposed who
would avert hostilities. Naturally they
will try to do all possible. But I fear
it is too 1ate.!’

Senator Hale expressed himself free-
ly on other phases of the situation, all
tending to show that the regarded the
country as being 011 the threshold of
hostilities with Spain.

AN ALL-SEEING ELECTRIC EYE.

Or the Work that the Fluormoter “'11! do
[0! the Body.

If you can imagine an imploved X~
ray machine which not only discovers
to the operator the inner bones of the
anatomy, but also shows the texture of
the subcuticle, or under skin, and the
blood as it flows through the veins and .
reveals the tiny pulses that beat time
to the dancing of the heart; if you can
conceive of such an apparatus, then
you will understand what the fluor-'
meter is and the work it is intended
to do in a surgical and medical way. ~.

With this wonderful machine a pa-
tient is laid upon the Operating table,‘
without removing a particle of cloth-
ing, the new X-ray is, turned on the
parts to be examined and the rest is
easy. A foreign substance in the
blood, no matter how minute, can be
located and Whatever effect it may
have had upon its sulloundings can be
detected and acted upon. The illu- ,
minating power of the fluormeter is so
gleat that semi- -opaque substances like
ground or frost glasses me not proof
against its till-seeing eye. ——New York
