ISllFTS AND GREETINGS.
Washington, D. C, Dec. 2S.-Tho Ttornance of the White Irouse" series has another addition. Quentin. the
t-ouneest eon of President Roosevelt
. has fallen in love and persists in stay
ing there, despite parental disapproval or secret service interference. The
parental disapproval is entirely theo
retical.
It -was not long ago that Quentin
failed to return from the Force public
chool which bo attends, within a rea-
lonable limit of the time at which he tnieht bo expected. A secret service
bian was sent to find him.
Ho found Quentin sitting on the
front steps of the home of little Mis
rolvln, daughter of Clinton K. Colvln, at 14.TO Rhode Island avenue. Colf In is a mail carrier. Quentin accompanied the officer without requisition papers. What happened afterward is not known publicly, but whatever It was it aidn't change any of Qucntin's plans. Yesterday the white house carriage stopped before the residence of little Miss Colvin and a liveried whitehouse Bervant took to the door a Christmas greeting. When Quentin went away to Pine Knot he had the answer in his inside pocket. It wished him a merry Christmas and a happy New Year
and was in the handwriting of the
young lady.

The facts are these: After conquering King larius. Alexander determined to wed Statiro. daughter of the conquered king, aud issued a deer.-e thiit on that occasion 100 of his chief officers should marry 100 women from the noblest Persian and MeiJoau families. He further stipulated that 10.000 of his Greek soldiers should tke to wife 10.000 Asiatic women. For this purpose a vast pavilion was erected, the pillars being sixty feet high. One hundred gorgeous chambers adjoined this for the 100 uob'.e bridegrooms, while for the 10.000 soldiers an outer court was iuclosed. Outside of this tables were spread for the multitude. Each pair had seats and ranged themselves in a semicircle rouud the i royal throne. As it would have taken i several weeks for the few priests to

Incidentally, it might be remarked that Mr. Carnegie has never laughed so heartily when he was praised for this or for that. Twain's simple, forceful language, and the "roasting he gave the iron king, furnished him great enjoyment.

A CLEVER RUSE. The Way an Ingenious Paris Merchant Saved Cable Tolls. A wealthy merchant in Farts who does an extensive business with Japan was informed that a prominent firm in Yokohama Lad failed, but the name of the firm he could not learn. He could have learned the truth by cabling; but. to save eijH.'DM', instead he went to a well known banker who had received the news and requested him to reveal the name of the firm. "That's a very delicate thing to do." replied th banker. ,-for the new is not official, and If I gave you the name I might Incur some responsibility." The merchant argued, but in vain, and finally he made this proposition: 'I will give you," he said, "a list of teu firms In Yokohama, and I will a?k you to look through It and then tell me, without mentioning any name, whether or not the name Q,f the firm which has failed appears in it. Surely you will do that for me?" Yes," said the banker, "for if I d not mention any name I cannot be held responsible in any way." The list was made. The banker looked through it and as he handed it back to the merchant said. "The name of the merchant who has failed is there." "Then I've lost heavily." replied the merchant, "for that is the firm with which 1 did business." showing him a nRtne on the list. Hut how do you know that is the i firm which has failed?" asked tb. ' banker in surprise. "Very easily." replied the merchant "Of the ten names on the list only one is genuine that of the firm with which I did business. All the others are fic

UNION PAPER AND TWINE COMPANY SAYS RATE OF FIFTEEN CENTS TO RICHMOND IS UNJUST AND THERE IS DISCRIMINATION.
Washington, Dec. 2S. The Forest City Freight Bureau of Cleveland, O., today filed a complaint with the Interstate Commerce commission against & number of railroads doing business in Indiana, including tho C, I. & E., the C, H. & D., the Big Four, tho E. : I., the E. & T. II., tho G. K. & I, the Southern Indiana and the Vandalia.
The freight bureau alleges it is traffic manager for the Union Paper and Twine company of Cleveland, which
ships large quantities of paper in car
. load lots from Brokaw, Wis., to Indl
ana points. Among tho rates charged on car load lots are the following: Co
lumbus, 21Hac; Evansville, 17c; Indian
spoils, 14c; Muncie lVe; Noblesville,
23c; Richmond, 15c; South Bend, 14c;
Terre liante, 14c; Shelbyville, 13c, These rates for the most part are al leged to be unfair and riscrlminatory It is claimed that a rate of 15c to Co
lumbus, 15c to Evansville, 14c to Muncie and 14c to Noblesville would be
lust and reasonable. No complaint is
made ot the Indianapolis rate.

tablish a satisfactory means of measuring heat, but none of them proved successful. Even Sir Isaac Newton, vhn nnnlied his ereat mind to this
work, and also the noted astronomer. Halley, failed in tbelr attempts to produce a heat measure. It was reserved to Gabriel Daniel Fahrenheit, an obscure and poor man. a native of Dantzig, to give to the world the instrument which has proved to be so serviceable to mankind. He had failed in business as a merchant and, having a taste for mechanics and chemistry, began a series of experiments for the production of thermometers. At first he made these instru
ments with alcohol, but soon became convinced that the semisolid mercury was a more suitable article to use in the glass tube. Fahrenheit had removed from Dantzig to Amsterdam, and there about the year 1720 he made the mercury thermometer which has ever since been fashioned much like the original. The basis of his plan was to mark on the tube the two points respectively
at which water is congealed and boiled and to graduate the space between. He began with an arbitrary marking, beginning with 32 degrees, because he found that the mercury descended 32 degrees more before coming to what he thought the extreme cold resulting from a mixture of ice, water and sal ammoniac. In 1724 he published a distinct treatise on the subject of his experiments and the conclusions that had resulted therefrom. Celsius of Stockholm soon after suggested the more rational graduation of

Sun Power. There is one source to which all minds revert wheu this question is mentioned, a source most promising and yet one which has so far eluded the investigator. The suu on a clear day delivers upon each square yard of the earth's surface the equivalent of approximately two horsepower of mechanical energy working continuously. If even a fraction of this power could be transformed into mechanical or electrical energy and stored it would
do the world's work. Here is power
delivered at our very doors without
cost. How to store the energy so generouslv furnished and keep it on tap
for future use is the problem. That the next half century will see some
nintirm thereof, either chemical or
otherwise, seems likely. H. S. Trltch ett in Atlantic.
