You can not have re- course to pcraoitaT violence without endan gering your own safety. Consequently, one never exceeds the limits of parliamentary del Mites." Barbara graciously permitted me to help her to rise. When she had readjusted her fast, and said that she would never speak to uie lignin, she asked me If she looked “nil right:" I explained, In carefully chosen language, that sucli a term was quite In adequate to express the potentialities of her appearance, lint I hoped to convey It suitably on a future occasion. Finally we took our lK*at. and In a few minutes were gliding over tin* surface of the placid lake. “We have the water all to ourselves thin afternoon." Barbara observed, after a few moments of delicious reverie. “.Vow, 1 come to think of It," I Mid, pensively, “there Is ouly one host." "How clever of yoar to find It, then.

Lady Allda’a expression favored the aun* iHisItloii that she was rell*M*tlng that "eoo|. ness" entered Into the cmniMisltlon of other things besides the water. Ilut. having fa vored me with a frigid Inclination of the head especially reserved for the detri mentals of society, she continued. In her well-bred ami carefully uuslulated voice: “My dear child. 1 certain y sUouhl never have gnuuicd It by your color. I'm afraid van an* quite too shiM-klagly burnt!

From The San Franciaco Chronicle. Nobodv knows his name, yet every body In Kennewick, Wash., 1a acquaint ed with him. "Irlah Tim" la the name by which he answers when asked to have a‘drink; but there are few bar tenders in Kennewick who will now consent to serve him unless a chain Is first fastened to the glas.a tor Tim has a penchnnt for eating such delica cies ns beer bottles, tumblers and other glassy receptacles In which the In ebriating beverages are dispensed.' Tim Is a stalwart fellow, and a veri table giant, 6 feet 5 Inches tall, heavy In proportion, with great, broad, pow erful shoulders that look as though they could furnish a force sufficient to put several Jim Jeffries,out of bual- neas without the least exertion. Tim only wears a No. 14 shoe, spe cially made to order, and has a hand big enough to cover an ordinary saucer. He Is perhaps the strongest man In the West outside of a circus, and he at tributes his marvelous strength to the fact that he has eaten glass ever slnc^ a small hoy In Ireland. When Irish Tlni made hla appearance In Kennewick he caused the natives to Imagine suddenly thnt they had all gone craxy, and were ’’seeln' things." The first extraordinary thing the big fellow did was to go Into a grocery store and purchase a half dozen glass tumblers. Then he strolled leisurely out to the curb of the plank sidewalk, eat down, opened up the bundle, and proceeded to devour the glasses much as a schoolboy devours ’his noonday lunch. A goml-slxed crowd had soon accumulated, and. of course, everybody thought at first that he was working off a little of Hermann legerdemain. But Tim sat there as Indifferent to their gaxe nml crltcfsms as on as tronomer to the maneuvers of an nnt colony. When he had devoured the last of the six tumblers he arose slow ly, smacked his lips, looked around to see that he had left no scraps and sauntered into a nearby saloon In search of a "chaser." Of course..the bartender wouldn't accept payment foom a man who could draw such a* large crowd aa Tim had done, so. the big fellow got his drink for nothing, i But when the fellow behind the bar | cast his eye around for the whisky glass, It had followed the chaser. Tim j was cracking up the last bit of It be- { tween hla teeth, nnd a wallowing It In morsels thnt were evidently sweet. “That's the kind of glass." said Tim. I that makes me think of home. Over : In the grocery store, there, all they had : was them big tumbler*. Sure, and they're a bit hard on your gums. but. I then. I've eaten so much glass that I! seldom cut myself." he added, smiling. "You see. | started In when 1 was Just a sprawlin' brat over In the old coun try. I used to steal my mother's Jelly and Jam. and then eat up the glasses to make her think somebody had stolen the whole business. •Yes, I guess that’s the way I got the habit. I recollect, when a kid, one o’ the boys bet me a piece of money l couldn't eat a chunk o’ glass, so I bet him on It. I ate a very small piece, and chewed It up carefully. Glass Is not hard stuff, and Is easily ground between the teeth If one la not afraid of It. Well. I won that bet. anyway, and for twenty-four hours awaited the results anxiously. Strange as It may sound to some of you fellows, I had a ravenous appetite the next day, and found myself anxious to repeat the ex periment. So, after a while, I ate an- BRYAN IS TO ATTEND A PLAY WRITTEN BY HIS OWN DAUGHTER By Private Leaned Wire. New York, Aug. 22.—William J.' Bryan’a daughter, Mra.
