Theodore Parker gave the following graphic description of Danlel Webster in the famous three hour sermon preached soon after Webster's death: He was a man of large mold, a great body nnd a great braln. He seemed made to last a hundred years. Bince Socrates there has seldom been a head so massively large save the stormy features of Michael Angelo. Since Charlemagne I think there has not been such a grand figure fn all Christendom. A large man, decorous In dress, dignified in deportment, he walked as if he felt himself a king. The coal heavers and porters of London looked on him as one of the great forces of the globe. They recognized & native king. In the senate of the United States he looked an emperor in that council. Even the majestic Cal- houn seemed common compared with him. Clay looked vulgar and Van Buren but a fox. What a mouth he had! It was a lion’s mouth, yet there ‘was a sweet grandeur in the smile and a woman'’s softness when he would. What a brow it was! What eyes—like charcoal fires in the bottom of a deep, dark well! His face was rugged with volcanic fires—great passions and great thoughts, “The front of Jove himself; an eye like Mars, to threaten and com- mand.” Came Near It. Wit and humor are such elemental, fundamental things that it has al- ways been found difficult to analyze them. Upon some points, however, those who have essayed this puzzling task agree, for they all hold that wit is an intellectual, humor an emotional, quality; that wit 1S a perception of re- semblance and humor a perception of contrast, of discrepancy, of incongru- ity. The incongruity is that which arises between the ideal and the fact, between theory and practice, between promise and performance, and perhaps it might be added that it is always or almost always a moral lnggngmny. In the case both of wit and humor there is also a pleasurable surprise, a gentle shock which accompanles our percep- tion of the hitherto unsuspected re- semblance or Incongruity. A New England farmer was once describing In the presence of a very humane per- Bon the great age and debility of a horse that he formerly owned and used. “You ought to have killed him,” interrupted the humane person indig- nantly. “Well,” drawled the farmer, “we did—almost.”—Atlantic. —— A Strenuous Statesman. In his “Eclipse and O’Kelly” Theo- dore Andrea Cook tells a story of the English statesman and sport Fox. He had wagered something about a walst- coat which could only be obtained in Parls; went off to Dover by night, caught the mail packet, posted fo Pam 18 and back to Calals, and remembered he had a horse racing at Newmarket. He chartered a fishing boat bound for the eastern counties, just got to New- market in time for the race, took the post back to London and stopped on the way to dine. In the middle of the port and dice after dinner he was caught by a special messenger who had been tearing over half of England fn search of him and reminded that'he had to move to bring in a marriage bill in the house of commons. He rushed to the stables, reached the house In time to make a brillilant speech in re- ply to North and Burke and defeated North on a division by a single vote. The Bee's Feet. Naturalists say that the feet of the common working bee exhibit the curl- ous combination of a basket, a brush and a pair of pinchers. The brush, the hairs of which are arranged in sym- metrical rows, 18 seen only with a high grade microscope. With this brush of falry delicacy the bee brushes its vel- vet robe to remove the pollen dust with which it becomes loaded while suck- ing up the nectar of flowers. Another delicate apparatus is the spoon shaped appendage that recelves the gleanin; that the bee wishes to carry to hive. Finally, by opening the brush and the basket by means of a neat lit- tle hinge, the two become a pair of pinchers, which render important serv- ice In constructing the cells for the reception of the honey. Tinned Tongue. “Are you studying Esperanto, Mr. Tdlot?” asked the lingulst. “I am not,” said the idiot. “I can talk too much in English if T want to.” | “It i8'a very fine language.” sald 'the linguist—“condensed, concise and easi- 1y acquired.” 3 “No_doubt,” sald the idiot. “But I don’t care for potted tongue.”—Broad- way Magazine. s SAID TO BE IN LOUISIANA Young Woman Who Eloped With Leng S - lsland Pastor. 8 way, he is a good fellow, and here’s success to him, Pt New York, Dec. 28.—That Moreits | ‘Whaley, the young ‘girl who last_April with Rey Cooke, Then Trslor ot BL Gedrge’s Episcopal church of Hempstead, may be now in Louisiana is indicated in a lotter recetved by Samuel T, Wright, chief clerk of the Nassau county sur- rogate's court, The letter is dated’ from Emder, La.; is postmarked New Verda, La., and is slgned “V.

Leslie Carter, lawyer and capitalist, is seriously ill at Chicago from the effects of gas poisoning which he suf- fered some time ago. o Dispatches to Dun’s Trade Review indicate seasonable quiet in trade, but there is an undertone of hopefulness regarding the new year.
