H i-aubtbi, , , THE SALT LAKE TBIBUjOTE". ' btoday mobkiko; December i8,l3M IfiuiTA FEW I ANECDOTES jj I' A Question of Science. 1 Tho Row Silas C. Swallow was dining. during thp recent campaign. In a hotel at Muncle, Ind. An elderly farmer sat oppo sltu lilin and when hl.s coffee was brought, tho farmer drank It out of the saucer. , The pood people of Muncle, at olght of this solecism, nudged one another, nodded towards tho farmer, and snickered. But Mr. Swallow took no part In their some what cruel mirth, and when tho young man beside him asked If he did not sco the humor of tho thing ho replied: "No; to mo there Is nothing funny In the sight of an honest old gentleman drinking his coffee from tho saucer To laugh at such a spectacle savors of pro vlnclallsm, In my opinion. It is almost as If wo should laugh at a Chinaman for using chopsticks. "Besides, It Isn't always wlso to rldlculo people who arc in error. More or less un consciously, sometimes, such people throw tho rldlculo back on us "I remember now, when I was a. student, nt "Wyoming seminary, n farmer camo to Kingston to vlalt his nephew, whom ho was educating "Tho farmer had no urban polish. His tea, when It was brought, was very hot, and. like our friend across tho tablo there, ho poured It In tho saucer, to his nephew's great mortification. "Finally, unablo to restrain hlmsolf, tho ncphow was so rudo as to say: " 'Uncle, why do Sou pour you tea In tho saucer?' "Tho old farmer looked up In surprise. Then ho said In a loud, hearty voice: " 'To cool it. to bo sure. The moro air fcurfaco you iilvc It, the quicker It cools. Theso hero modern seminaries don't teach much Bclencc, do they?' " An Incumbrance. Horaclo Anagagastl, a commissioner from Argentina to tho St. Louis fair, de scribed tho other day an ungrateful son. "This man," he sold, "emigrated from the old country to Argentina. Ho emi grated on his father's money, and in Ar gentina ho prospered. So the old man. who was now poor, came over and Joined him. "Some years passed. Then tho son wrote homo to his brother ns follows: " 'Dear Brother: I have got ono of the handsomest plantations In South America and have It nearly paid for. Crops aro good' and prices novor were better. "Wo havo had a glorious revival of religion in our mission church, and both our chil dren (heaven bo pralxcd) aro converted. Father got to be rather nn Incumbrance, and last week wo took him to tho poor house. Your affcctlonato brother. Effect of Heavy Sentence. Tho judicial dignity thot characterizes proceedings In tho central police court, where Magistrate Kochcrnperger dis penses Justice, was rudely Jarred yeotcr- d At the bar was a prisoner with a record an a hardened offender, and upon him tho magistrate fixed nTstZTB eye. "You aro a baaVB man." he said, 't u Jn-JMB on example of you, ami'u give you a heavy heavy sentence.
