He Desired It. A boy walked Into the office of the telegraph company at Chicago and applied for a job, He said his name was "Missouri." The manager happened to want a messenger boy just at that moment and gave him a message that had to be delivered In a hurry. "Here's your chance, my boy," said the manager, "these people have been kicking about undelivered messages. Now, don't come back until you have delivered it." A little while afterward the tele phone rang. On the other end of the wire there appeared to be a building watchman, somewhat terrified. "Have you got a boy they call 'Mis souri?'" inquired the watchman. "We did have 10 minutes ago," re plied the manager. The watchman continued: "That 'Missouri' feller came over here and said he had to go to one of the offices. We don't allow no one up at that office at this hour and 1 told him he couldn't go." "Yes, yes," said the manager. "Well," said the watchman, "he said h wnnM go and I had to pull my gun on him." "but you didn't shoot him?" ex claimed the manager. "No," meekly came back the re sponse over the wire, "but I want my gun back." Hit Only Chance. "Robinson is an awful pest at the club. He talks and talks all the time."

WIS Hesitated In Thick of Battle at Flrsi Opportunity to Take Human Life "Saw Red" When His Com rade Was Shot Down. Paris Lying In a hospital here t young British soldier who had been a London broker a few months ago, told the story of his first bayonet charge, It will be his last, too, for he will never be well enough again to be senl back to the front. We had gone into the trenches round Ypres only a few days before; he said, "and my first experience ol the realities of war was to lie patiently suffering an awful inactivity while the artillery on both sides belched de struction on the men facing eaefc other in the trenches. As dawn broke I felt an uncon trollable desire to climb out of the trench into the open, but I knew was courting death, as I saw the nexl moment. The man nearest me raised his head above the parapet, and in ar instant was bagged by a sniper. Ht rolled over with a stifled murmur, auc lay quite Btill with his face buried Ic the soft red earth. I turned him ovei and spoke to him, but he was dead with a hole in his forehead. "The day passed fairly quiet until dusk, when we received the order thai in an hour's time we were to storm one of the enemy's advanced positions The next hour seemed a lifetime. The noise of the bombardment swelled louder and louder, but I hardly no ticed it. The men around me showed their emotions in their faces. Some were excited and showed an almost exaggerated enthusiasm for the worli in hand. The majority were strangelj silent. I can honestly say I felt nc actual fear, but I could not help re membering that in a short time oui numbers would probably be reduced by half, and I was prepared for the worst. "In five minutes the order would be given and the thought of what was: coming made my blood boil. I, too, became impatient to get out into that stretch of open ground which separated us from our goal. It was dark now, and the enemy's searchlight began tc sweep our positions. Two more mln utes and we should leap from oui trenches. "The bombardment reached Its height, and with a wild, vicious final roar which seemed to open the heavens It ceased. The moment had arrived. The order was given, and, scrambling over the parapet, we emerged into the shell-swept zone. The enemy's guns began to spit fire among our ranks, but no one wavered. If we had felt any fear it had now left us. Men fell on all hands, but with a yell we rushed forward with bared steel towards the raised ground. "Our artillery had done its work well, for we fcund the wire defenses almost completely blown away. We reached the enemy's front trenches, and I raised my bayonet as a big Ba varian made to fire at me. "Then something within me made me hesitate, and a comrade laid the man out just in time. In the thick oi the fight it had just dawned on me that I was about to take a human life for the first time, and I had felt momentary repugnance. 'The next instant, however, one ol our men next to me fell in a heap and a bullet whizzed past my face. Then I knew what it was to 'see red.' With a yell I bayoneted the German whe had shot the man, and had soon ac counted for three more. The place was like a shambles. The German front line trenches were filled with a heat of torn and bloody corpses and we were now attacking the rear trenches "Then suddenly I felt a pain in my shoulder, but I rushed on. I tried tc raise my rifle, but found I could not, and the next moment I was hit stmul taneously in the arm and the jaw. The pain was terrible, but as I lay on the ground I tried to shout for joy. I was Infected with the fever of our success for I knew that the position was won Then I lost consciousness and I woke up in the field hospital."

Jeffersonvtlle, Ind. Mike Wall, chief of police, dropped his .38-caliber revolver, "guaranteed not to go off even if the hammer is hit," but the guaranty did not hold.

At least, that was the case of Col onel Knut of the Tutleton Terriers. An inspection was to him a nightmare. So when the general commandin came along Colonel Knut sat his horse uneasily. Then the band played! At the first bang of the drum the colonel's horse started two-stepping. With the fifes he tangoed. The col onel set his teeth and hung on grimly The Terriers got mightily excited. Would he stick on or not? Anxious to see the fun, they pushed forward, until the front rank looked like a foot ball crowd. 'Ease off, there!" yelled the ser geant angrily.

Howard But, Hazel, dear, marriage is out of the question now. I am only a clerk on a meager salary, you know. Hazel Oh, Howard; don't let that interfere with our happiness. We can live on one meal a day if necessary Howard But you know nothing of household duties, dear; why, you can't even cook! Hazel Yes, I can, darling. The time has come for my confession. Howard, I graduated from a cooklne, school three weeks ago. Howard Come to my arms, sweet heart; it shall be as you wish one meal a day will be more than enough. The Difference. In many ways," observed Mrs Cityflat, who was visiting a friend in the country, "I find that a horse Is much like a man." Well, I dunno," answered Farmer Squash, as he applied a match to his corncob pipe, "I have 'found them quite different in some respects. For instance, a horse is worth more after he's broke." Judge. Patrick and the Jury. A famous lawyer had a client named Murphy who had boon arrested for Illegal sale of liquor. Tho police had no evidence but ono pint of whisky, which they found in his house when they searched it. In court this evi dence was produced, and a somewhat vivid claim ot prima facie evidence of guilt was mailo by the prosecuting attorney, Durinf! all this, counsel for the pris oner was silent. When his turn enme for the defense, he rose and said: 'Patrick Murphy, stand up." And Murphy, with a big red noso, un shaven face, bleared eyes and a gen eral appearance of dilapidation, rose. "Patrick Murphy, look upon the jury; gentlemen of the jury, look on Patrick Murphy." Jury and prisoner mutually com plied. The counsel gazed at Patrick for a moment, tnen solemnly turned to tho jury. Do you mean to say to this court and me you honorably and truly be lieve that Patrick Murphy, if ho had a pint of whisky, would sell it?" Murphy was acquitted. Ruthless Revenge. "I'll get even with the man who made all those libelous remarks about me." "Surely you will do nothing vio lent." "No. I don't propose to make life interesting for him. I'm going to haul him Into court and make him sit for hours listening to arguments and ex pert testimony." The Caller. The Small Boy Are you the bone less man? The Caller Boneless? Why, no. What gave you that Idea? The Boy Pa said you was a contor tionist. "A contortionist?" "Yes. He said you was always pat ting yourself on the back." Not Favorably Impressed. "Can you tell me some way to cook potatoes?" asked the young wife who was doing her first marketing. "They are very nice Just boiled in their jackets," suggested the grocer. "And have you no other potatoes than these?" she went on doubtfully. "These jackets do not look very styl ish." In the Field. Going to eat today?" inquired the dragoon. "Yes," replied the hussar, "we have horse meat." "We have prospects of dining our selves. There's an automobile out yonder that has turned turtle." Louisville Courier-Journal.

The Opportunist. v Robinson Crusoe was watching the sea from his lonely isle. Suddenly he Jumped to his feet. "Friday," he called, not being fa miliar with Sunday, "there's some thing floating to shore." Whereupon the two castaways dragged a baby grand player piano to land by its ears. Crusoe gazed sadly upon his capture. "I don't know anything about music and we have no perforated rolls" he walled. But Friday, with the resourcefulness of the aborigine, tore a porous plaster from his manly bosom and soon the lonely isle was resounding with the noble strains of "Goodbye, Girls."

If there is a possible justification for these Idaho state officials going before the head of a railroad system begging for free passes it must be based on the plea that Idaho does not furnish enough money to pay legiti mate expenses. Economy that thus forces pub lic officials to debate themselves and ask for special favors from ....corporations that are In turn ask ing favors from the state Is false economy. .. The demoralization sure to follow will cost the peo ple ten times more than the value of the free passes secured. This Is humiliating.
