.- - -THE G.-LIT INFINITIVE. ! O. Rcrnard Shaw Say dm Clwnur Atxmt It It All Nouimiw. In n letter to tho editor of tbo London Curoulolo G. Heninrd Slinw writes I phould have- thought, now tlint wo htivoauncwloniyof letters, tliut itiulfiht rescue us from tbo gentlemen who occa plonally vrito to you to explain how English Nhonld ho written. Somo tlmo ago yon lot Ioofo nn unhappy croatnro to whom fiomo competent person hml lucniitloiiPly poluteil out n common blunder In tho um of "nnd which." Kot mitlcrotaiiilhig tho matter, ho began . ncousing overy writer In whoso works he conld ilihcoTcr -"and which" of writing had English. With your per luifinlon, I huvo extinguished him, anil ho has not siuco hoon heard of. There wn soma exouso for that poor wretch, hiH-aueo thero unquestionable is a wrotig way of using "and which," hut for tho "split lullnitlvp" pest thero Is uo oxcubu at nil. There In nothing whatever to nilsluad htm oxcept liU-own nnturo. If nuy man woro to object to a Epllt India ntlvo Huch as "I grontly regret," or a split mibjnuutlvo such as "I nhonld greatly prefer, " or a split imperatlvo puch as "como Rlowly tip," what nowfl paper would wanto an inch of spaco on his foolish igunranco? Aud yet this split infinitive iiouseiiRo is taken qui to seri ously by editors who aro HUflloiontly good writers to Vopautodly uso it thorn fcolvca. Tho iuflnitivo is n mood iu which tho position of thn adverb cannot possibly produco ambiguity; consequently tbo order of tho words is not n matter of grammar, but of style, of'whioh tho our is tho only arbiter. Tho car often de mands tho split inllnitlvo and will havo U iu bpito of all tho silly people who do .not know what Rtylo means. When these influito lupccts aro dis posed of, you will no doubt bo attneked In duo coursu by tho oven more impu dent impostors who, though they pro uounco tho word "color" so as to rhyme with "duller, " nnd novcr hear it nud never have heard It and liovcrwill hoar 4t pronounced in any othor way, from tinio to timo pretond to bo shocked -when it is spolt without a "u." I trust you will nlwayH insist on thoso nui Fauces definitely stating wbothor thoy pronounco it or "honor" or"noighbor" or "favor" or "bobnvior" so us to rbymo with "our" or "poor," ns tbo caso may bo, or whotber they nro merely bogus etymologists ceutury Isolated Johnsons. In cither case yon will bo justifiod in recommending them to tho euro of thoir relatives nnd suppressing their bab blings. Slack and While r.ffcotn.

Mneut of congress was under discussion cno Saturday afternoon. Bon Butler, .that born wit, had stepped over to Sam JtandaU's desk for a private consulta tion. Butler favored a Sunday session, whllu Randall opposed it vigorously. "Bad as I am, I havo somo respect for God's day, " said tho famous high tariff champion, "and I don't think it Tight to hold a session on tho Sabbath." v. "Oh, pshuwl" responded Butler. Doesn't the Bible oay that ft is lawful to pull your ox or ass out of tho pit on tho Sabbath day? You have 78 asses on your side of .this house that f wnut to get out of this ditch tomorrow, and I think I urn engaged in n holy work." "Don't do it, Butler," pleaded Ran dall, "I unve some respect for you that 2 don't want to lose. I expect' somo day to meet you in a better world." "But you'll bo there, as you are here," retorted tho sly Benjamin, quick as a flnsh, "a member of tho lower jiouse. " Louisville Courier-Journal. The Quality of Krai Fun.

Then tho law- ! ycr urged that tho shirt was of a now kind which buttoned in the back, but tho judge mot this by saying: 'The pro Bnmptiou of tho law is that shirts but ton in front, nud tho court doos not ju dicially know that shirts over button in tbo back.

A Texas military company was out on tho rango practicing at rifle shoot ing. Tho lieutenant iu command sud denly became exasperated ut tho poor shooting, aud seizing a gun from one of the privates cried shnrply: "I'll chow yon follows how to shoot." Taking n loug'nim, nud a strong aim, and an aim altogether, ho fired aud missed. Coolly turning to the privuto who owned tho gun, ho said: "That's tho way you shoot." He ugaiu loaded tho weapon and misled. Turning to tho second man iu the rnuks, ho remarked: "That's the way you shoot." In this way he missed about a dozen times, illustrating to each soldier his personal incapacity, and finally he acci dentally hit the target.

A rcetllntc Tlmo Incident of Life In tbe llalunccil Tanks. i Whou the decorator crab cots too big for its sholl, it does what many other shellfish do it sheds it, emerging with its now sholl ulrendy formed, hut nt that stago of its growth pliable and not much thicker than pnpor. In its talt shell stato it is comparatively defense loss; and it keeps out of the way of other shellfish If it can, but its now shell soon hardens, and then it goes about in its accustomed manner. Tho decorator increases greatly, per haps u third in size, almost immediate ly after leaving its old sholl, which it icarccly scorns possible it could over have inhahitod, hut it gets nut) of the old shell novcrtbelnss without damag ing it -nud leaving it pftou disposed In u tuorit lifolike form. Tho decorators nt tho aqnarlutri aro fed separately, so that each will bo suro to got its portion. Tho food is put dowu to thorn on tho tip of a little stick, which is shaken gently over them, nnd tho food, thus detached, falls within tho crabs' grasp. There is no currout iu tho baluucod tanks in which tho smnlfcr docorutors nre, mid nuythiug dropped in tlm water drops straight down. Tho other day thero wero found in ouo of theso tanks, clinging to tho ulvn, two docorutors, which woro supplied, ns usual, by plaoing thoir food iu tho wa ter wlioro they would bo suro to get it. Boiuu somewhat pressed for timo that day, however, tho man who fed them did not wait to see tho crabs uctunlly cat. Ho plncod Jboir food within reach nud trusted them to do the rest. But glancing iu at this tank on bin roturn from feeding tho small fishes and thiugs in tbo other balanced tauks ho saw tho two decorators that ho had found on thu ulva still there and in pre cisely tho ranio attitudes ns before, nud thou ho realized thnt thoy wero not live orubs, but sboddiugs. Ho bad been feed ing empty shells. On tnking-thom out of tho tauk lio found iuside of oue of them the fragment of food which he had dropped fcr it, which had fallen into it through tho opening between tho upper uud tho lower part of tho thell which tho crab had made iu get ting out. It mny bo tbnt tho two decorators for merly residing in those shells, but now secure in somo distant port of tho tank with now shells hardening ou their backs, smiled1' as they thought of tho feeding of thoir ompty shells. It is cer tain thut the man who fed them smiled ns ho arranged them for preservation in tho aquarium's collections. Now Yorfc Sun. CrocUottes.

Tho seasoned meat is then stirred into tbo pasto and tho wholo turned out to cool. Tho meat should be allowed to stand for at least 2 hours be furo it is molded into croquettes.
