It has been remarked as a curious :’Y l ’ eircumstance that Bonaparte and Wel- he Sher lington were born in the same year, | and that Burns and Hogg, the Scotch | By Be!le Kanaris Maniates it is more remarkabie that the two greatest dramatic poets of modern Eu- rope, Shakespeare and Cervantes, both died on the same day in the same year, April 23, 1616. It is further re- markable that Shakespeare, like the great Raphael and Sobieski, died on the anniversary of his birth.—From Shakespeare Repository, (Copyright, 1912, by Assoclated Literary Press.) When Mrs. Warburton and her daughter Marie reached the little western city where they were to change cars, and found that dey had | missed connections, thus necessitating spending the night in a sirange place, they accepted the situation with a tranquillity that bospoke an extensive acquaintance with the fa:. of travel- ers. It was 7:30 o’clock when they regis- tered at the hotel. They had already dined on the train, and as it was too 1858, Way of College Men.

The struggling mass of citizens, “What a child you are, Marje,” laughed her mother, gazing fondly at her daughter. “Most girls that have been ‘out’ five years and have had sea. sons of grand opera and the best drama would be bored at the prospect of a provincial theater.” “That is just why it won’t bore me,” argued Marfe; “because it will really be such a novelty. Do you know 1 have never been in as small a city as this? Sometimes I think,” she con- tinued wistfully, “that people In the towns bhave a more interesting, inti- mate sort of life.” Her mother was too much engaged in freshening up her toilet to follow her daughter’s train of philosophy, so Marie mused meditatively on life in general and her own life in particular. Beautiful in face and form, charm- ing and attractive in manner, she had || been courted and wooed but not won, because there still lingered an ideal lover in the fancy of the ycung girl, and the sultors in her train were all of the one society type, “If 1 could only meet & man—a man’s man!” she thought. *1 still maintain my faith in the emistence ot such a man—somewhere, and that 1 shall find him—somewhere. It might happen even in a litle provincial town like this.” The lobby of the little theater was twenty-one years of age; it is |h('r(<gerowded. and as they stood awaiting fore ordered that the said non-resi- dent defendants be and they are here- by required to appear to the bill of ! complaint filed by the complainant in the said canse on or hefore Monday, the third day of June, A, D, 191 otherwise the allegations of the said | bill will be taken as confessed by the | said defendants.

A vender of patent medicine had insisted on holding his exhibition in the street. The police were endeav- oring to prevent him arnd to disperse the crowd, who espoused the cause of the medicine man. The usher opened thedoor of the cab and zssisted Mrs. Warburton to enter. As he then turned to Marie, a sudden gust of wind blew the door shut. The cabman, without turning his head, flicked his whip and drove rapidly medicine man and police came tneir way with a rush, and a panic ensued. The usher caught Marie up with one arm and used the other to good serv- fce in clearing a passage. Finally he succeeded in reaching a corner which | ke turned and they found themselves m a dark, quiet street. Marie still clung to her escort, speechless and breathless from terror. When she re- gained her composure they started to walk to the hotel. ‘1 should have been trampled to pieces by that mob, but for you,” she exclaimed. “How did you manage?” *] wus on the tootball team at Har- vard,” he laughed. Before she could reply a cab drove up to the curb and Mrs, Warburton looked anxiously out. “As soon as I succeeded in making the driver understand,” she said, "1 made him drive back for you.” Marfe got into the cab; they bade the usher adieu, and before they had finiched their conversation with him the driver was away again, During the journey Wwestward | Marie found her thoughts often stray- ing to the usher and the incidents of the cvening. At Los Angeles a round of gayeties awaited them, for the oc- casion of their trip to the coast was the marriage of Mrs. Warburton's nephew, George Alexander, three days betore the wedding Marie was confined to her bed with a cold, but at the hour set for the rehearsal she managed to appear at the church, as she was to be one of the brides- | maids. As she entered the vestibule she heard a volce saying: “Miss War- ' burton?” ! She turned with a joyous lttle ex- | clamation, “l am a bona tide usher this time,” | tion of the pews. Ihd your cousin tell you that we were to walk dmz\'ni the aisle together?” “He said,” she answered demurely, “that | was assigned to a college friend of his, Roger Cornwallis, but of course | did not know i1t was You.

The | | straight canes, with knob handles of all shapes and made of all materials, | were, s0 he said, “all the rage” a few | vears ago. C(onservative men wore | simple canes, but a miniature band- | master’s baton was easily disposed of. | Then came the thin, switch cane, and | | a few years ago nothing sold better | | than canes with straight handles. To- | day everybody wants a crook handle | cane, and there s a good reason for the style. In crowded subway and ele- vated trains and surface cars where a man must hold to & strap and has only | one hand left for cane and paper, the | crook handle comes very handy. It hange at the pocket or over the arm, | and its shape is graceful and sensible. i 1t will not be displaced as the leader ; in many years. | Girl Wing Rich Prize, Miss Marie Gertrude Rand, of' Brooklyn.
