d'dy for gratitude. She took a

powers are felt almost immedi

ductor was standing before her
and without raising her ayes she,
slipped the nickel she held into his
hand. He did not seem disposed to
take it, so she raised her eyes in
haughty surprise. She then saw
that it was not the conductor, but
a mere fellow traveller who was
thrashing her coin back upon her.
Whereupon the chapter on “The
Negation of Existence” became
more absorbing than before, al
though those who sat next to her
observed that she turned two pages
at a time without noticing the fact.
Euphemia spent last Sunday
with friends who have bucolic tastes
and live in the country all the
year round. Euphemia, like many
of her sisters, is wearing calf-skin
boots this winter, and one of the
most onerous duties of her brother
is connected with blacking them.
When she arrived in the city the
morning after she had visited her
country friends, there was a good
deal of mud clinging to her shoes.
She eyed them ruefully and looked
at her wellcut, neat skirt above
them. The contrast was too pain
ful. She could not stand it. So she
sought out the most secluded boat
black’s chair in the neighborhood
of her station and seated herself in
it, determined to defy public opin
i»n and show that even in such a
position a woman may bo dignified.
Curiously enough no one gave her
more than a passing glance, and
while the bootblack ostentatiously
made ready his tools she fell into a
reverie. She was aroused by hear
ing the words, “Oil shine, Miss?”
‘‘No!’’said Euphemia, absent
mindedly.“A rub down with Flori
da water.”
Tben she awoke to the fact that
it was a bootblack and noj; a mas
seuse to whom she was talking,
and she gave him 15 cents extra
for not laughing at her.
“Myrtilla,” said the girl in the
Persian lamb cape, after she had
greeted a friend in a velvet coat at
the hot chocolate counter. “I have
a problem for you to solve.”
‘’AU right,” answered Myrtilla,
cheerfully.
“Well, if you were engaged to be
married, and your afliancsd hus
band’s Christmas present tc you
was a year’s supply of lovley papers
bearing your monogram-Hyrtilla
stamped in ailvar, your affianced
having had th* stamp made on
purpose, would you tmuk, Myr
tilla, that he was just mearely stu
pid iu a man fashion, or would
you think he meant to imply that
you were .0 us« your maiden name
a long time? ’
But Myrtilla's answer was lost
in a sudden clatter of spoons.

CAUSED A RIOT IN COURT
Officers Attempted to Arrest a Ne
gro Leayeifig the Courtroom.
St. Louis, Mo., Dec.|2o. — A min
iature riot broke out in the coart of
criminal correction at noon today,
William Wright, a negro, had just
been discharged on a charge of
misdemeanor and was leaving the
courtroom.
Officers attempted to arrest him
on another charge, when his friends
believing that he was a victim of
police persecution, resisted and at
tempted to release the prisoner.
A furious struggle ensued, durii g
which clubs were freely used and
revolvers drawn. The combatants
surged backward and forward
through the room, overturning
desks and chairs, and it was neces
sary to ring for reinforcements
from police headquarters before
the row was quelled.
A prominent attorney narrowly
escaped death from a pistol shot
by Officer Dewarmide. Aa a result
of the riot six persons were badly
injured and two detectives have
been suspended from the force
pending an investigation.

Loi Angeles, Cal., Dec. 19. —
Judging from the performances of

and no urging, she came home in
