HAD TO HAVE AH ARGUMENT
Old Yankee Wae Slek to Death of At mosphere of Peacefulneee Whloh Surrounded Him. An old Yankee was station master, telegraph operator, ticket agent and baggageman at a small town In Maine. A passenger bought a ticket to New York. Thee he walked round to the baggage room to have his trunk checked. The whiskered little ticket agent met him In his new character as baggageman. “Wun’t cheek It I” be qald. * “Why not? That’s a perfectly good ticket. You Just sold It to me. Hie ticket permits me to cheek baggage on It" “Said I wouldn’t cheek it an’ I won't check it" “But you hare to check it I ” “Don't talk big to me, young man. Tm boss here. Said I wouldn’t check It, an’ I wun’t" Then followed 10 minutes of heated dispute. Then the distant whistle of the approaching train was heard. The old man peered down the track and then returned to the passenger. “Changed my mind," said he. “Til check it" “But why all this row? Why wouldn't you check it In the first place and save all this argument 1" “Young feller," responded the railroad functionary, without even a twinkle in his eye, ‘Til tell you how ’tla. For a spell, nobuddy’s been a-comin’ down here like they used to. Hang ’raound th’ pustufflee drivel In’ ’baout peace an’ politics ’n sich. Been lonesum. ’Hain't had enny argymint with nobuddy In three months, an’ b’gum I I wui go’n’o hev one or bu’st!" —New York correspondent'ln Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
FORCED REMOVAL OF EDICT
Londoners in Riotous Mood ‘ When Monarch Threatened to Cloco City's Coffee Houses. All England was up In riotous defense of the right to pursue happiness and coffee when. In 1675, Charles tried to close the coffee-houses as “the great resort of Idle and disaffected persons,” hot beds of political Intrigue. So loud were the protests against the prohibition that the king was forced to revoke his proclamation. To save his dignity, he said that “out of his princely confederation and royal compassion all and every retailer of the liquor aforesaid shall be allowed to keep open until the four and twentieth day of June next.” The arid date came and went—and the lid didn’t go on. The London coffee houses still flourished, champions of free speech when the press was controlled and parliament unreliable. Of all the literary and political meeting, places, the most Influential was one popularized by the patronage of the poet Dryden. Literary aspirants of the day paid dearly merely for the privilege of entering the room the great man usually occupied. There it was that Pepys saw him, center of an admiring throng, having “very witty and pleasant discourse.” Dryden’s chair alwaya was placed by the Are in the winter and on the balcony in summer. '
Lucky Even to Get That.
“The president of the stone bank was kidnaped by a robber,” relates the landlord of Petunia tavern. “He was In his - own yard. In his shirt sleeves, mewing the lawn, when the villain drtv* up In a snorting car and compelled Mm, at the p’tnt of a pistol to get in, and then went roaring off with hh» In a southeasterly direction. The supposition was that the scoundrel expected to hold him for ransom. Just at dusk last night the bank president came back In the car. He was weaning a vest and a pensive smile, and also pants and coat. In. a pocket of the coat was a pistol, and there was a bundle of clothes In the bottom of the car. When ashed about the fate of the bandit he sorter yawned and said he presumed likely the villain found a barrel somewhere. —Kansas aty Star. .

QUAINT OLD-WORLD CUSTOMS
Whitsuntide Superstition Hi Parts of England 'Annual “Cheeee Rolling*’ la Small Village. Aa eld superstlttou still lingers in some parts of England, notably Derbyshire, and induces people to rise unusually early an Whitsuntide morning in order that they may see the son -rieev for they frankly believe that whatsoever request le proffered the Aindgkty at tha* particular moment Is oerteln to be granted. The county of Northampton celebrates an old custom, dating from the time of Queen BUsabeth, once la 20 years. The seam of it Is the village of Gasby, Very early on WMta Monday, bands of men sou stationed at the by-ways of the parish, who demand toll of all pedestrians. Should they refuse, they are-seised, hoisted on a stout pole, and oarrled to the village amidst the rhsirrt and jeers of the spectators. no origin of the “cheese rolling*’ which takes place yearly in the quiet little Tillage of BlrdHp, In the Chel-. tenham district, Is lost, like many more. In the mists of antiquity, but local sentiment forbids it dying out. A substantial round cheese is "set rolling down a steep hill with all the young ■ml active membeee of the population In hot pursuit. Before it can be captured many of the men are rolling after, but the cheese evades the 1 majority of them, and usually falls to the lot of one of the company wbe has managed to keep his feet.

SEES IN HARDING BEST TRADITIONS, IDEALS AND HOPES
Nominee's Former Pastor St* Boosting Man Who Win Bs Leader and Not Dictator. FINDS IN SENATOR NO TRACE OF RADICALISM Declare* Justice, Kindliness and Msrey Stand Out as Foremost Characteristics of Republican Candidate. Included among the Minnesota Republicans working faithfully and industriously In behalf of Senator Harding, to Rev, D. B. Martin, of Winnebago, Minn., formerly pastor of the Marlon, Ohio, Baptist Church and Senator Harding's pastor. The ether day Rev. Martin was asked just why be to so enthusiastic about Senator Harding, and this la what be said: “It to a peculiar pleasure for me to continue the work which I began twenty-five years ago. It was my privilege to stand on the side lines and boost for Senator Harding when he received his first nomination for public office. When he was a candidate for the senate 1 was visiting in Ohio and had the pleasure of boosting for him. It tor, therefore, a peculiar pleasure to join with this bunch of Minnesota boosters In seeking to put Senator Harding .over, In the greatest gift within the power of the people. Being a clergyman, 1 have been constantly asked by my friends at the college commencement In Michigan, In Chicago and in Minnesota why I am such a persistent booster for Mr. Harding, and I have been asked to state In this presence my reasons for doing so. These are three: “The first pertains to certain elements of his character. 1 will give you these as I received them while I was pastor of the Baptist Church la this elty, of which Mr. Harding to a member. 1 asked him and a group of other men to make some Sunday evening addresses. 1 do not remember much that Senator Harding said at that time, but I do remember very distinctly the words with which he closed his address and which have stood all these years as outstanding elements of bis character to me. He closed the address by a quotation from the Prophets, In which he said, 'And what doth the Lord thy God require of thee but to do justly and love mercy and walk humbly with thy God.’ Justice, mercy, kindliness and humility have In all these years stood as foremost characteristics of Mr. Hardlng*a lifecharacteristics which are always attractive and make a man's life worth while.
“The second reason to because. I believe that there to focused Id him the best traditions, ideals and purposes of the great Republican party and ss peculiarly fit him to be their leader In this greet crisis es the nation's life. I use the word 'leader 1 advisedly, for It to leadership that we are needing and not arbitrary, dictatorial, autocratic rule. We have had enough of that If a boss to desired there would be no need for making any change, for the boss that we have to the bossiest “The third reason to because I End in him ae trace of radicalism. To ms radlcgltom to the greatest danger that we have to face. Our Interests are toe diverse to admit of anything of that character. We have our agricultural group with Its interests. We have the labor group wlthlts interests. We have eur tnandal interests. We have that other great group known as the public, that has always been made the 'goat,* with its Interests. All of these are es vital Interest to the common weal and I believe that Senator Harding to bread enough and sympathetic enough so that the interests of each am be blended In the common interest at all* and-til will b# perfectly safe under his leadership.’*
