Guardian. Yet. some people would be
disposed to regard the extinction of
this letter with composure or even ap-

against those who sound It too promi

Aubrey animadverts on the fact that
"Milton pronounced the letter R (lit

of a satyrlcall wttL"
fn Germany the “canine letter" has
found many enemies, who maintain
that Its abounding employment largel)
accounts for the ruggedness of Teu
tonic speech. Some writers have gone
so far as to produce works from which
It Is entirely banished—a remarkably
difficult feat, seeing that It figures In
about 50 per cent of German words.
Two minor luminaries of the eight
eenth century, Brockes and Gottlich
Burmann. wrote a number of poems
from which the letter is deliberately
excluded, so as to produce un atinos
phere of “sweetness and light"
These facts were eclipsed by a nine
teenth century author, Gmnz Rittler,
who held the letter In aversion, though
It appears twice in bls own surname.
He published two novels. “Die Zwll
linge" and "Lisette und Wilhelm,” In
which no R can be found.

Supplying Palestine With Water.
From the average yearly rainfall
of 20 Inches enough water could be
stored up In Palestine to support a
population of 16.000,000. according to
James Haines, secretary of the Zion
ist Society of Engineers, which Is lay
ing plans for a wnter supply system
for the Holy land as part of the restor
ation work neeessnry to make the
Innd ready to receive the hundreds
of thousands of Jews from all over
the world who will emigrate there
as soon as the political status of the
country Is cleared up.
Allowing for a 50 per cent loss
through evai>orntlon and running off.
Mr. Haines has figured that the yearly
rainfall over the 20.000 square miles
of Palestine will provide a future pop
ulation of 0,000.000 with a daily per
capita supply of 2.055 gallons. The
uverage dally consumption In New
York st present Is estimated at
about 800 gallons per capita.

Provence In search of more Roman
architectural remains. It Is thought,
owing to the extent of the discoveries,
that It will be possible to bring to
tight the ronds which existed between
the vnrlous Roman establishments of
the south of France. Inscriptions and

at Die In the Drome, aqueducts, an Im

A young physician gives the follow
ing amusing conversation with his
valet, who was a negro:
"He didn’t have no business to call
me a nigger, did he, doctor?"
“There Is no harm In the word ne
gro," explained the doctor. “Negro
Is the name of your race, your people.
Every race has a name, the Indian, the
Chinese; the name of your people Is
the negro race.”
“You say dot. doctor? You thinks
dat? But us colored folks, we know
dar ain’t but one nigger—he's de bad
man.”
"But that Is the talk of Ignorance,”
argued the doctor. “Here Is the mean
ing of the word negro In the diction
ary; don't you see—a negro Is a black
man?"
"Did a white man make dis book,
doctor?" asked the boy.
“Yes.”
“Well doctor, you know how It Is
'twlxt white man and nigger.
You
know If the white man made de book
he glad ter writ it down dat de black
man is a nigger. Hit don’t 'stonlsh me
ter read dat writ in a book a white
man make. Des wait till de nigger
makes a dictionary.”

King Alfonso has been telling the
story of his first cigarette.
The Incident, It appears, occurred
Immediately after he had been formal
ly enthroned as king of Spain when
attaining bls majority on his sixteenth
j birthday.
Up to that time he had not been al
lowed to smoke, nor even then was the
prohibition withdrawn. Nevertheless,
he came to the conclusion that, as a
ruling monarch, he might at least do
as he liked Is this respect
Accordingly he asked his brother-in-
law. the prince of Asturias, for a
cigarette.
“1 haven’t got one," said the prince,
faithful to family orders.
Then the king applied to the officer
of the guard, who said solemnly:
“I regret that 1 du not siuoke them,
your majesty."
At Inst the young king made his way
to the sentry at the palace door, who
amiably produced a plug of black to
bacco from his trousers pocket and
rolled a cigarette for his majesty, who
smoked It proudly through the palace
"It made tue violently sick later on."
he sold in telling the story; "but 1
enjoyed It at the time. I felt, ns I
puffed and puffed, that I was really
and truly grown up at last”

Alfred Nye. member of the Federal
Signal corps during ftie Civil war. who
died recently at Lexington, Neb.. Is
credited with having sent General
Sherman’« famous message, “Hold the
fort." to General Corse at Allatoona
Pass, Ga„ In 1884. During General
Sherman'« march to Atlanta, the Con
federates under General Hood, with
drew «nd marched around General
Sherman, heading back toward Ten
nessee. planning thereby to cut the
Union line of communication.
The point chosen by the Confed
erate« was Allatoona Pass, guarded
1 by two little forts on either side of
the railroad, the garrison being formed
of a small brigade under Lieut. Col. J.
E. Tourtellotte. When the Confederate
army began Its attack Colonel Tour
tellotte asked for help. General Corse,
with the nearest troops available, at
Rome, Ga., was ordered to reinforce
the pass. He was able to move only
a few hundred men.
Th« battle raged through the
night and the following day, the Union
men refusing to surrender the fort
Meanwhile ShermaD was exchanging
signals with the men whenever the
smoke of battle drifted aside, until be
was able to have Alfred Nye wigwag
to them: “Hold the fort" The Con
federates retreated and continued their
march to Tennessee.
