! A CHINESE RECOMMENDATION.
I aimdry Ticket Used by Bejrear a *
Letter from Consulate.
"Do you know I think Chinese charActers -
Acters are the most deceitful things I
ever saw , " said the matron from Grand
boulevard to her North Side friend at
the meeting of the Women's Club last
"week.
"I can't read them , so they never de-
delved me , " replied the friend who was
bet Interested In etymology.
[ "Well , I can't either not any more ,
put I liad the strangest experience
Kvith them , and my husband is talking
kbout It yet , " the woman from the
boulevard continued.
; "One day hist week a hungry-looking
man came to our house. I would have
jthought he was a tramp , only he was
tee polite , and said he was worn out
rrom work. Why , the very first thing
be said was , 'Madame , I am looking
jtor work. '
"I thought of the advice given in thf
circulars which come with the Charltj
Bureau's annual request for subscrip
tions , and I asked , very severely , 'Havf
you any recommendations ? '
" 'Yes , madame , ' replied the man. ' 1
have one I value very highly. It 1 ?
from the Chinese Consul. '
"With that he fished in his pockel
and pulled out a yellow paper , all cov
ered with Chinese characters. It near
ly took my breath away , but I wasn't
going to appear surprised , and mur
muring , 'Wait a moment , please , ' I
took it back to the dining-room and
compared it with the bottom of a plate.
Several of the characters were the
game at least I thought so and th
crockery man had told me those on
the plate meant 'excellent quality , ' sa
naturally I supposed the letter of rec-
commendation told that my caller had
an 'excellent quality. ' He didn't lool ;
it , but I couldn't doubt the word ol
the Chinese Consul.
"I had. him sweep the cellar and gava
him plenty to eat , and , then , as hs
was a friend of the government official ,
I paid him a little more than it wag
worth , about $2. He forgot to tak.j
his recommendation , and I ran nearly
half a block after him to return it , but
he was gone. I was congratulating
myself on the fine souvenir I had when
my husband came home.
"I showed It to him and told about
the Chinese Consul , and he haw-hawed
just like a horrid man. When I asked
him what was the matter , he just
laughed again. After the theater thai
evening' he took me down on Clarlj
street past the Chinese restaurants ,
and there on- the sidewalks were any
number of 'recommendations , ' where
they had been washed from the Chi
nese bulletin boards by the rain. My
husband said they were nothing bill
Chinese advertisements. But the onQ
the man had was nothing but a Chi
nese laundry ticket
"A few nights later that same man
tried to beg a dime from us as we weni
coming from the opera. There hadn't
been any rain for a few days , so 1
guess he was out of consular recom
mendations. But don't talk Chinese to
me at least when my husband iy
around. " Chicago Inter Ocean.
11-E HUSBAND IN A STORE.
He Seemed Ridiculous , bat Had HIi
Own Turn to Laugh.
A man rushed into one of the de
partment stores here in town eng
morning last week and stated in rather
a confidential tone to the saleswoman
whose counter is at the entrance ot
the store that he wanted "a blouse for
" " ' find them tha
his wife. "You'll on
second floor , " she answered , between
numerous giggles. Then the would-
be shopper made for the elevator ,
whether he doubted the young lady's
word as to where he might find the
coveted blouse or whether it was th < >
enthusiasm of his first present cannel
be determined. At any rate every ,
body in the car knew he wanted a
blouse for his wife , and was at las !
directed straight to the counter wher *
blouses of all kinds were on exhibi
tion.
"I want a blouse for my wife , " h
shouted to the girl in charge of tha1
counter ; "it must be pretty , and it'i
got to be silk , and let it cost | 20 or $30
I want a good one. "
"What color do you prefer ? " aske *
the astounded clerk.
"Color ? Why , any color. "
"What size , then ? " Bhe shrieke *
back. "Is the lady large or small1'
"Now , that's where you get me , " th <
anxious husband answered. "Some
times I call her fat , and she geta mai
about it , and when I say she's thin
she's furious. Just , give me an ex
pensive silk one , and that will do , '
and at this juncture the shopper real
ized that all the clerks were on , am !
that he was making himself ridiculous
Being a man of resources , he deter
mined to get even.
"Young lady , " he shouted , "you re
member I told you it was for a lady
so just give me any old color and size
anything that takes your eye. It real
ly won't matter , for no matter wha.
it may be it is sure to be exchanged. "
Then it was his turn to laugh , an )

His Complaint.
I am a baby , 11 months old , ant
nearly worn out already. Please le'
me alone.
I am not a prodigy , except to the ex
tent that , not having anything to say
I don't talk. Two big persons claln
to be my parents why can't they lei
It go at that ? I have never denied
the charge. I haven't much data to go
by but I don't think I am either a ma !
gician , a learned pig , or a virtuoso. I
don't hanker for applause ; so , it will
be an appreciated favor if you won't
put me through any parlor tricks.
If I have my wealthy old Uncle Ez
ra's nose , congratulate Uncle Ezra }
but don't blame me. I may be a klep
tomaniac , for all I know ; but I can't
help it.
Don't rattle rattles at me they rat
tle me. Don't goo-goo and ootsle-koot ?
sie at me. I can't understand it any
better than I can the English lan
guage.
The pain I have is not in my stomach
ach , but in my neck. I don't want to
be entertained or mystified or medica
ted or applauded. And , if you don't
want me to grow up to be a hypochon
driac , a stamp-collector , an awful ex
ample , a ping-pong enthusiast , or a
misanthrope , you Just lemme be !

fern , and United States Naval
Attache T. M. Potts. The emperor
was quite a different man aboard the
yacht , than when aboard the battle
ship , talking about yachting and
snorting matters the whole time.
When lunch time came bis majesty
helped each member of the party
himself from the large cold dishes
provided and Prince Albert photo
graphed the group.

easing interpreters for their con *
lenience. Signs are displayed every
where ' 'Americans are welcome to

Ait the Analstnnt to Presi
dent Schwab.
New York , July 1. Keports pre
valent for months past that Charles
M. Schwab would retire from tbe
presidency of the United States
Steel corporation culminated today
in the appointment as an assistant
to tbe president of W.E. Corey , pres
ident of the Carnegie Steel company.
The formal announcement was made
by Richcrd Trimble , secretary of the1
finance committee in the following
form : "Inconsequence of the con
tinued ill-healh of tbe president , he
has requested the appointment of an
assistant to perform the active du
ties of the presidency : and at to
day's meeting of tbe finance commit
tee Mr. W. E. Corey , president r-f
the Carnegie Steel company was ap
pointed to such position.
Announcement of Mr. Corey's ap
pointment occasioned no surprise in
financial circles , where it had been a' '
matter.of common knowledge tbatatj
least one important change was peud- '
inp in tbe personnell of the steel cor
poration affairs.
The finance committee of the steel
corporation is dominated , according
to popular belief , by Mr. Morgan and
Lis friends. One of its leading mem
bers is H. C. Frick who was induced
by Mr. Morgan to accept a place on
the committee. The strongest pres-j
sure was brought to bear upon Mr.1
Frick in March last to accept the1
presidency of the corporation but
Frick resolutely declined. None of
the officials of the steel corporation
would discuss Mr Corey's appoint
ment or the causes that led to it.
Suffering With Lockjaw
Lincoln , July 1. Henry F. Peters ,
of 2803 Holdredge street , is suffering - '
ing from an attack of tetanus or
jockjaw. The physicians pronounce
the attack a mild one , but his condi
tion is so serious that he may noti
recover. About ten days ago Mr.
Peters was larieting a calf -near his
home when the rope became twisted
about bis band and in the endeavor
to control the anLnal , a hole was
burned to the bone of the forefinger.
He paid no attention to tbe hurt
further than to apply the usual home
remedies until the finger began to
swell , when he visited a physician
who dressed the wound. The injury
began to be very troublesome last
Friday , when a physician advised him
and that he was in a serious condi-
and that he had better take a
long sweat bath to remove all traces
of the pnison which seemed to be
taking hold of bis system. He still
thought there was ilttle danger and
put this off. On reaching home that
evening he was seized with muscular1
contractions and spasms of the throat
and chest resembling the symntoms
of lockjaw and help was speedily
summoned. It was necessary to
place him under the influence of
antti-spasmodics to relieve the in
tense suffering. Monday he rested a
little easier tboueh be was by no
means out of danger. The casa is ;
termed a mild one and there isapos- :
sible chance of his recovery Mr.
Peters is a well known real estate
man. He was a candidate for a mem
ber of the school board little over a
year ago.
