exemplified after his romnrknblo vor-
bal cncounte with the Krcat New Yor
ker, Mr. Conkling. Mr. Lnninr, after
scarifying Conkling forlifo, leavirtK him
with hurniiiK yet deferential resent
ment, cloned aa followa:
“I apoloKi/.e to tho Seiuito for tiiia
BecmiiiK unparliamentary language,"
(advancinK to the New Yorker and
tlirowinK hi* index linger full in hi*
face), "Ihiikuuko that no man, no k<><>(1

od to tin clonk-room on the Democratic
aide, lay down 011 a Rofn, anti in throe
niinutON was aleepioK n* calmly in* a
babe. Ttiern win* great excitement,
it wax believed Mr. UonkiinR would
not submit to ttie lnnKuiiKo applied to
him, ami tl at while lie probably would
not clmtlnmin Lamar, being an athlete,
he would meet him on tho streets and
assault him. Tho late Senator /.eb
Vance, a Herculean In stature, who wait
devoted to Mr. Lamar, without the
knowledge of that gentleman, or of any
other human being, shadowed Mr. La
mar for mnno day*, explaining after
ward* that if Conkling ever ntruck La
tuar lie intended to boat, him to death.
Mr. Vance, however, did not know
what thone intimately acquainted witli
Mr. Lamar knew, in all probability, Mr.
Lamar could have whipped them both,
lie prilled himself upon hismURcle, anti
lias often said to tho writer,’I believe 1
urn lietter lltted for n prize lighter than
I am for a Senator.’ It was appre
hended by some tbutConkling would
challenge Mr. Lamar, Conkling was
known to be an expert witli tho short
sword, Mr.’Lamar siiitl afterwards to
ail intimate friend in discussing the
matter: “if Mr. Conkling hud sent 1110
a challenge 1 should have chosen short
swords.”
“Why, Mr. Lamar,” replied his
friend, "Conkling is an expert with the
short sword.”
"I know that,” replied tho Sonator,
“but 1 took Homo lessons with the short
sword myst^f wlion I was in Fart* the
time that I was sent by the Confedera
cy on u mission to Russia.“
"Why, Senator," tho friend replied,
"you have not had a short, sword in
your hand in 2ft years.”
"1 know that," coolly replied the
'Senator, "but 1 should have chosen
short swords."

the report that ttin future Czarisdeop-

.Jewess is said to have exercised almost
unbounded influence over the youthful
prince, and the latter, it is reported
lias oven proposed to abandon ins im
perial rights in order to marry tho ob
ject of his devotion. Such a courso 011
the part of the Oznrwltz would proba-
vt% have lamentable results for the Ro-
suaaoff tfjnaaty. Prince George, the
eeconu '“’ u of the Oar, is in almost as
hopeless a condition as hie father us to
health, and the third son, Michael, is
not yet ltl years of age. The Russian
empire, therefore, in the ovont of the
Czar’s death and his oldest hoh's re
nunciation of the throne, would pass to
a regency at a period when, if ever, tho
strong hand of ail autocrat appeals to
be required for its successful guidance.
Qouce, doubtless, the resolution of ttie
Ctar to see hie son and heir married in
orthodox fashion before his own depar

between the Cznrowitz and the beauti

upon the future of the Hebrew nice in
Russia. The Hebrews have more than
once beeu delivered from their enemies
by the courage and beauty of their wo
men. and they wculd bo well justified
in adding another feast day to their
calendar if the persecution of their
race by the Romanoffs should be
brought to an end through the same
powerful mediation.

The Royal was found to be a perfectly pure cream of tartar
powder, containing neither alum nor phosphoric acid. It was also
the highest in leavening strength. It was in fact the best powder

Chicago Tl mi's.
‘Not many years ago them was still
liviug in Fleming county, Kentucky,
a man who had quite a reputation in
his way. Uuelo Bill, as he wus familiar
ly called, was known as the most
fluent user of profane language in that
section of the country. He was uovor
ontsido tils native county but once, and
it is safe to say lio never forget one inci
dent of the journey, llis son, Jim, who
was in business in Paris, during one of
his visits home, induced his futlier(who
had never enjoyed tlie luxury of a ride
on a railroad) to accompany Uim buck
to Paris. Uncle Bill swore promiscu
ously at everything and evevy one iu
sight. Ho Anally drew upon hi* head
tho wrath of a clerical looking gentle
man, who talked to him very forcibly of
the evils of swearing, and incidentally
cited several instances w here blasphe
mers lmd been suddenly stricken in va
rious ways by the hand of providence.
Their conversation wbs suddenly inter
rupted by ttie traiu entering a tunnel.
This unlooked-for phenomenon almost
startled Uncle Bill into a convulsion.
Recovering himself somewhat, but
trembliug like a leaf, he leaned over
ami auxiously inquired of his sou: ‘Jiui,
can you see?’
ami greeted me by name, ulthougli I
could not exactly place him. Ho dis
mounted, and, coming to where I was,
lie sat down quite close to me.
"Colonel," he snid, in a low, cautious
tons, "you kin rospeck a man’s feolin’s,
cain’t yor?’’
"I think I can, if I know what they
are," I answered, slightly uncertain
as to what was expected of mo.
"Well, I’m in this sort of a tlx," he
proceeded, very confidentially, after
giving a hitch to the b >x ho was sitting
on. "I’ve been going to see old man
Mullin’s gal Susan, an’ she’s tuck to me
like a wot kitten to a hot brick, but she
kinder hnnkeis alter money."
"Most women do," I ventured.
"1 reckon yer moro’11 half right,” he
admitted, with a sigh. "Anyhow, Susau
tol’ 1110 to-day I waz too pore, an’ when
1 disputed the p’iut she said us lu^v 1
didn't have a cent tor my name, an’
wlienlt.nl’ her she didn't kuow what

nab me in two shakes uv a lamb's tail.
Then 1 said, 1 did, ez how I’d have to
go home after hit, an’ I come ter yer.
You gi’ mo the money, an’ hoi’ that
mule for hit tell 1 git back yer again,
won’t yer?"
The proposition soemed fair enough,
for the young man was honest and very
enrnost, so 1 held tlie mule, and lie
word.’ 1
"Hy-the-way,” I asked ns he mount’
ed the mule, "why did you come to me
for the money? The mule was worth
a good ileal more than f7. Why didn’t
you call the young lady’s attention to
that?"
He winked slylv as ho dug his heel-
into tlie mule’s ritis.
"faze, Colonel,” ho laughed, "Susan
knowed it warn’t my mule.”
Then, us he rode awav merrily to
