Admiral Evans Retort Direct.
The personality that his closest
friends know is roughly quaint and
lovable, and the anecdote that they
tell as most characteristic of Admi
ral Evans, the man, his love of fun
and dislike of mean-spiritedness and
snobbery, but which he protests Is
as greatly exaggerated as the death
of Mark Twain, Is that of his going
alone in ordinary street clothes for
a visit to Trinity Church, says Hamp
ton's Broadway Magazine. No usher
being in sight, he seated himself in
a pew well in front. A man with two
ladies sought the same pew a little
while later, frowned at the admiral
as that warrior arose oplitely to al
low the women and their escort to
pass him and seat themBelves in the
same enclosure. The man continued
to stare and frown at the intruder,
and finally drew out a notebook, tore
off a leaf and wrote ibriefly upon it,
handing it with a sudden gesture to
the sailor. Adjusting his blasses the
latter read on the slip, "I pay $3,000
a year for this pew."
The admiral took out a pencil of his
own. Shortly afterwards lie handed
the slip of paper back. The man read,
bit his lips, got red and then sub
sided. Evans had written:
"You pay too much."
m. a. Evans has returned from a
trip to his old home in Kentucky and
a short stay at Kansas City. He went
after a carload of fine Jersey cows
for the Sanitary Dairy.
Mr. Kanaly, who recently came
