Lauihin-j Around the World
With IRVIN
Precisely the Right Word
By IRVIN S. COBB
COMETIMES a speaker, casting about for exactly the ripht word, hits
on the wrong1 word aud yet, paradoxically, the wrong word seems
exactly to sum up the situation of the condition which the orator has
sought to describe. 1 think of a case in question: f
Some months apo, down in Whitehall, which is in the state of
Virginia not many miles from Richmond, a negro farm-hand, whose
first name was Le-i, met a violent and sudden death. He was ploughing
a corn patch when a thunder shower came up. In the midst of the storm,
a bolt of lightning struck tru tree under which he had taken shelter
and searcelv "enough A him was left for purpose of burial.
Nevertheless, his family and friends did give him an elaborate
funeral. A colored minister." with a reputation for eloquence, was im
ported at considerable cost to preach the sermon.
The preacher very soon got into his swinr whUo the congregation
Fwayec! and moaned and gave vent to muffled hallelujahs and amens
under the swav of his "language. He came to his climax:
"De rail fur our pore brother wuh swift an' suddin. He did not
lintrer long months on de bed of nam an' affliction. He did not suffer
an' waste away. No suh, de Lawd jest teched an electric button :d ds

A Striking Tiesemblance
W. T. Weddell clipped a. picture.
it'-om a Minneapolis paper that look-!
; ed so much like Charles Kupke that
.when it was shown to various Mur-l
1 dock people, with few exceptions
they agreed it was he. Finally the
! picture got around to Mr. Kupke:
I himself. Alter scrutinizing it close-!
; ly. he said: "This i.; not my picture.
' I '.in for one thing. 1 would say it j
w..s. atui that is the lug white nod; ,
tie." One person said it was a pho'o
i
ot John L. Sullivan, which n was.'
And so. v. e find, a most striking re ;
