GRAND RAPIDS 'LEGIONAIRES PUTTING ON CELEBRATION Grand Rapids, Minn., July 20— Plainsmen of the southwest and lun.- berjacks of the north met here today’ to put on their favorite tricks be- fore the Iron range American Legien meeting. Champion logroliers arz entered in the log-rolling contests, with “Hay- wire” 0’Connell, one of the best known rivermen n the northwest, the favorite. **The Legionaires have imported broncho busters and steer buli-dog- gers to provide entertainment. Large delegations were expected from range towns. ‘A Diplomat. A small boy was asked to dine at the home of a distinguished prefessor, and his mother, fearing he might com- mit some breach of etiquette, gave him repeated directions as to what he should and should not do. Upon his return from. the great oc- caslon she questioned, “Richard, did you get along at the table all right?” “Oh, yes, mother, well enough.” “You are sure you didn’t do any- thing that was not perfectly polite and gentlemanly?” J “Why, no nothing to speak of.” “Then something did happen. Tell me at once,” she demanded. . “Why, while I was trying to cut the meat it slipped off on the floor. But 1 made it all right.” “What did you do?” “Oh, I just said, sort of carelessly, *That’s always the way with tough meat” "—Harper's Magazine. How many’ people know what &' ““Fletcher” is? The Fletchers are one of the livery companies of the city of London, and the name means an &rrow maker, London Tit-Bits explains. Some names of. the' city companies, such as the fanmakers, barkers, apoth- ecaries, joiners and musicians, are easily recognizable, but what does a cordwainer do, and a loriner, and an upholder? The first is a cobbler, the second a bridle, bit and spurmaker, and the third an upholsterer. Among the mvst curious of the com- panies is the pattenmakers. The pat- ten was a contraption to fit on the boot like a double skate, which lifted the pedestrian a few inches from the dirt and filth of the street. There are a number of “great” Lon- don companjes. In their correct order they are the mercers, grocers, drapers, fishmongers, goldsmiths, skinners, mer- chant tailors, haberdashers, salters, ironmongers, vintners and cloth- workers, ' 3 The wealth of some of these city gullds Is enormous. A parliamentary commission which sat more than forty vears ago stated that the rateable val- ue of thelr splendid halls was about £55,000, dnd this figure has been al- P most doubled during recent years. If their treasures came under the auc- tioneer's hammer, they would realize an ipcredible sum. i The richest of the companies 18 the mercers, with an unpual fncome .of £111,000; followed by drapers, £78,000; skinners, £66,000; cloitiworkers, £62.- 000; goldsmiths and haberdashers, £58,- 000 each; fishmongers and merchant tailors, £50,000 each, and so: op, , “Lost the Account.”. - The Council ‘of, North Sydney; Aus- tralia, has had dealings with a man with strange ideas of bookkeeping. Some years ago he.did some work for the Council, but didn't claim payment for part of it, because, he said, he had “lost the account.” The other day the bill was sent In for the balarce and was duly paid. The “account” had been kept on a bit of tin; which had got mislaid, — Horse Opera The oddest procedure I ever wit- pessed. says an Ontario correspondent, was that of a horse which on becom- ing thirsty -repeatedly whinnied for a drink. When no one came the animal selzed the pump handle in his teeth and worked it up and down until he had enough water pumped- for & drink. She says :she ‘has seen this horse do this nuymerous times. B e face And dim his eyes and darken saul as L well, Y Perhaps then we would wish for caverns leep, That we might pass within to silent sleep, It we ;had peen what snates beset his way, S ‘What dreams. of youth had into dark- ness pagsed, ‘Had felt the tempter's lure, our reason sway, i . Or seen lite's dearest hopes caught In the blast, 2 Might we not then, h weakness, sin and fall, 3 And pray that darkness come and cover au? Much better with kind words we light his way, ~ For budded in that soul perhaps may be Thoughts that will blossom, into life one + day, 5 And lll some lonely heart with melody, Let!s not, with mocking sneers, his hopes appall; Perchance we, too, along life’s way may fall. ~W. H. Gilliland, in Kansas City Times. = He Knew Stevenson. .. . Dan, the Battery boatman, is a char- acter. known to every ship pews re- orter. . He, drifted into ship pews headquarters 15 years ago, a derelict from a tramp steamer. He had once voyaged with. Stevenson and he be- ‘came ambitious to write. He acts as a sort of messenger boy and picks up swall ‘change and enough to eat. Each day he writes an article . which - he gives to ‘some one. of the seribes.

Sentimental ~ Melodies THERE are times when your mood craves music of sentiment ‘and romance—the lilting ballads of love, the songs of exquisite tenderness— for which Oscar Seagle’s rich bari- tone is so wonderfully adapted. - - Two of his best—*“Believe -Me If All Those Endearing Youn, Charms,;” and “When You afid% Were Young, Maggie”—are placed on sale today. In them the full-throated, sus- tained quality of tone; the delicate gradations of expression; the sing- er’s interpretation of emotion—all are reproduced with a realism which - leaves the listener with caught breath and moistened eyes. These two records are typical of Columbia quality and superiority. You will appreciate their difference, . their velvet-smoothness, and the absence of annoying, diseoncerting surface sounds which permits you to enjoy every note of themusie, In their unmarted accuracy of re- production is caught the very moye- ment of the singer’s lips; the sweep of the bow across muted strings; the shades of harmony which—from solo to symphony—blend into pictures of musical tone and color.
