According lo one holel proprlelor
hero Norfolk holols are up lo Ihe slan-
dard and have no fear of being brought
up for not using the required bed sheet
nnd Individual lowols. Many of the
expenses of a hotel are the llllle In-
cldcnlals such as towels , soap , pen
holders , paper , etc. , of which much is
stolen by patrons of the hotels. Many
bath towels and penholders , reaching
an amazing number at the end of a
year , are stolen dally from hotels.

charged for at eleven letlers as a
limit to the word. All combinations
of letlers conlrary lo Iho usage of
ordinary language , artificial words ,
misspelled , abbreviated or code words ,
will , after December 1 , be counted In
land line messages at the rate of live
letlers or fraction to a word.
Reports from good authority have
been received here which show thai Ihe
Poslal Telegraph company Is Included
in the merger of the American Tele
phone and Telegraph company and the
Western Union company which was
made public only a few days ago. The
Postal Telegraph company It Is said ,
was sold to the American Telegraph
and Telephone company some time
ago while the Western Union became
a properly of Iho same company Jusl
a short time ago. That President Rob
ert C. Clowry and other heads of the
Western Union and Postal company
in the east will lose their positions
and one head of the great talk monopoly
ely be placed In their place , Is report
ed In telephone and telegraph circles.
What effect the merger will have on
the local offices Is not at present
known but It Is believed on good au
thority thai Ihe offices will never be
consolidated. A cable , however , will
probably be run from the telephone of
fices to the telegraph offices so thai
in case of a general break down of
wires the telephone company can use
the circuits of the telegraph offices ,
Former Vice President Daker of the
Postal Telegraph company Is talked of
as president of the new companies.

"COURTS AN AID TO SIN"
A Methodist Prclntc Condemns Sec
recy In Divorces.
New York , Nov. 20. Bishop O. P.
KltzKcrnld of the Methodist Episcopal
church , south , al Nashville , Tenn. , has
telegraphed hero the following opin
ion concerning recent divorce agita
tion :
It Is generally accepted truism thai
Iho sacredness of the marriage rela
tion measures the civilization of any
country. This Is true of all people
everywhere without regard to race ,
color or previous condition. Judged
by this standard , the outlook for our
country Is not encouraging.
The divorce evil Is Increasing. In
the higher walks of life whore there
Is most money and ought to bo most
Intelligence- and superior virtue , the
sin and shame of divorce have In
creased alarmingly.
The secrecy of the pioceedlngs Is
a feature that tells Its own story. The
hidden works of darkness are thus con
fessed. The remedy Is with public
opinion that will express Itself In wid
er laws and a betler practice among
our clergy and civil officers.

OLD ANNE ROYALL
She Was Once One of the Quaint Char *
acters of Washington.
Old. queer , uharp longued Anne Hoy-
nil , traveler , cdim-sis and Intervlewei.
was for many years a familiar figure
In ( be streets of Washington , trotting
indomitably about her buslines. ver.v
poor , very persistent , often trouble
tome , often rebuffed , but with quail-
lies of honcst.s and courage to bo re
spected.
There Is gUen In the story of her
life by Sarah Harvey Porter a delight
ful glimpse of her visit to ex-Presldeni
Madison and his wife. Thp contract
between thegrnclmw mature beauty
of charming Dolly Madison , elegant in
her rustling black silk , and the funnj
little limping , shabby figure In antl
atmted skirts and ridiculous wadded
bonnet , could scarcely have been en
hunced.
As usual , old Anne Koyall bad tramp
ed to save carriage hire ; as usual , her
errand , probably none too welcome to
her hosts , was to secure nia Interview
and use a descriptive background. But
Dolly Madison saw In the absurd , In-
qulsitlvc. bespattered person before
her neither the reporter nor the guy-
only ins aged and weary woman who
was her guest. She hurried to bring
her a glass of water , tbeu quite sim
ply stooped and rolled her loosened
Kboe laces and wiped the Virginia mud
from the tired old feet.
It Is small wonder that Mrs. Royall's
clothes were quec-r. She was scarcely
of a bent of mind frivolously to pursue
the fashions hud she bad the time and
money , but sbe had neither. Her pa
per , the Huntress , of which she was
owner , editor and chief reporter , once
published conspicuously on Ihe edi
torial page a notice which la perhaps
unique In journalism :
"No paper will be issued from this
offlce tills week. We really musl lake
one -week once In ten years to fix up
our wardrobe , which Is gelling shabby.
Our next issue will welcome congress. "
The Intelligent Mul& ,
"Some people think mules haven't
much intelligence , but 1 kmw they
Lave , " was the way a commercial trav
eler Interrupted a story teller. "Now ,
take the town I come from. While 1
was home on a visit last year the place
was all wrought up over the systemat
ic stealing of ( lowers from tlu > graves
In our leading cemetery. The thing
had been going on some time , and the
people were shocked , of course. Final
ly a guard was posted and the thief
captured , and the thief was a mule.
"It didn't take long to get at all the
facts. 11 seems that a certain woman
living near the cemetery bad held up
the mule's owner , who was beating the
animal , prosecuted him for cruelty ,
tlicn bought the mule and turned II
out to pasture. The mule was so grate
ful to the woman that every night It
would Jump the pasture fence , go Into
the cemetery , pick up the freshest
bunch of ( lowers It could llnd , carry
them to the woman's house and de
posit tlHMii on the front stoop , when1
she would lind them In the morning.

The Top Hat.
Tall hats , "pcarklu up like the spire
of a steeple a quarter of a yard above
the crowne. " as a sixteenth century
writer describes them , were known In
the time of Elizabeth , and the Purl-
tans affected them until they merged
Into the old fashioned beavers of out
great-grandfalhcrs' days. Top hatu ol
silk appealed first in Florence about
1800 , and twruty years later silk bats
with felt bcdlcs were Introduced Into
England. About 1S-10 the French silk
hat was plated on the market and at
once adopted in the familiar "chimney
pot" shape. There were several vari
eties of It. such as the Wellington hat ,
with the yeoman crown ; the Anglcsea
hat. bell shaped at the top , and the
D'Orsay hat. with ribbed silk binding
and a big bow. The color also varied.
Thuti tin- Karl of Harrington started a
craze for given top hats by wearing
one In his garden with the Idea of not
frightening the birds. Ho also tested
his Hllk liatH by standing upon them.
The top hat. however , was never so
favored by any great personage as to
account for Its general adoption. Lon

WILD GEESE.
They Never Fted Without Throwing
Out Scouts or Sentries.
Some ot the common sayings con
cerning birds are stupidly wrong ,
"You stupid goose ! " Is an expression
constantly heard , yet the goose , wheth
er wild or tame , is most sagacious.
Wild geebe. for Instance , never feed
without throwing out scouts or sen-
irlus. J. G. Millnis describes how he
saw a Hook of geese feeding with sen
tries out and how after a time one of
the sentries went up to a bird that
was feeding and ga\e it a gentle peck
on th'.1 back The latter thereupon left
Its giuzlug and went oil' lo take up
guard , while the sentry took Its turn
to feed.
"Gentle as a dove" Is such n com
mon proverb that the dove baa become
the emblem ot peace. ( . .Hille a mis
take , for all the dove and pigeon tribe
are gre-at lighters , and in the breeding
Benson the COCK birds indulge in bat
tles royal.
The foolish prejudice against al >
birds of prey includes that pretty llttlu
hawk the kestrel. Now. if the kestrel
were known as the mouse falcon It is
possible * that keepers would not In
variably shoot It on sight. The kestrel
lives mainly on mice and wire-worms
11 Is quite Innocent of killing par
tridges.
in a game preserving district In
boUthern Scotland kestrels were prac
tically exterminated a1 few years ago.
What was the result ? Over a tract of
: ouutry of l.'JUU square miles tield mice
lucruuhcd in such myriads that the
grazing was absolutely ruined. One

The Witches' Tree.
Country people speak of the eleloi
tree as "the witches' tree" urn ]
planted It near farm buildings and
dairies to keep off witches. They uluc
say that the roots should never come
near a well , still less grow Into it , ot
the water will be spoiled. Evelyn's
opinion was also unfavorable. II
Kays : "I do by no means commend
the scent of It. wlilcli is very noxious
lo the air.
"We learn from Bleslus that a cer
tain house In Spain , seated among
many elder trees , diseased and killed
nearly all its inhabitants , which , when
at last tlie > y were grubbed up , became
a very healthy and wholesome place. "
Cattle scarcely touch the elder , and
the mole Is driven away by the scent
Carters often place branches on their
horses' heads to keep off tiles. Noth
ing will grow well In the company ol
the elder , nnd when It has been re
moved and all Its roots carefully
grubbed up It Is some few years be
fore the ground becomes perfectly

how this chap will Hunk. "
The "newsle" came running with
his papers , ami the Londoner prompt

your nose this morning ! "
The hey glanced up nt the English
man's aristocratic features and , smil

nose. sir. Mine ain't runnln' . "
The Londoner got rattled , took out
his handkerchief and had It halfway
to his nose before bis companion's

Izo he hod been stung.
