Victor Smith, formerly a resident of
Ohio, ami a personal friend of Secre-
tarv t'hase, wan one of the disturbing
elements that made the great secre-
tary's last days in the treasury depart-
ment turbulent and unhappy. Victor
Smith had been appointed by the sec-
retury to the place of collector of cus-
toms at Port Townsend, Washington
territory. Smith was a restless vision-
ary and in these later days would have
been called a crank. J. W. Schuckers,
who was private secretary to Mr. Chase,
and also his biographer, has spoken of
Smith as "a man not very llke'.y to be-
come popular on the Paelfio coast—or
anywhere else. ll« believed In spirit
rapplngs, and was an avowed aboli-
tionist; he whined a great deal about
•progress.' was somewhat arrogant In
manner an.! Intolerant in speech, and
speedily made himself thoroughly un-
popular In ills office.'
While ho was collector at 1 ort Town-
send, Smith succeeded In Inducing the
government to move the custom-house
1 from that point to auother "u l'uget
sound, where he had some speculative
interests. It was a foolish and hare-
brained scheme, and created a bitter
feeling among business men. Hill new
place was named Port Angelos. □ There
the collector maintained himself for *
time in a semi-barbaric proprietorship.
It Is related of him that he once Invited
the officers of the revenue cutter Shu-
brick to dine at his house; and the offi-
cers, considering that the collector of
the port was a high functionary, ar-
rayed themselves in full dress, with
swords, gold-lace, and other gorgeous
insignia of their station, and went
ashore in.state to wait upon Colleotor
Smith at his mansion, which was then
In an unfinished condition. '
In due course of time 'the collector,
assisted by his wife, brought out two
carpenter's saw-horses, on whloh wil
placed a board covered with wrapping
paper. The repast, whloh was as sim-
ple as any ever partakon of by the her-
mits of the olden time, was then set
frrth; and Smith, taking from his pock-
ets three big apples, gave one to each
of the three officers, with a small fork-
ed stick, remarking: "Toujll have to
roast your own apples."—Noah Brooks,

no CASH TIPS FOB WOMEN.
They <...< Only Smile, and Smirk, from «
nt Rentauranta \%h««re They
ployed.
in restaurants where women arc em
ployed as waiters the average man
seems to be of the opiniol. thut smUes
or smirks are tantamount to tips,
although they cost the gtver nothing
and have no cash value anywhere, cx
cept, perhaps, as elements to bccon
sldered in estimating damages
breach of promise suits. Why a man
should consider it more or lessjbU-
eatory on him to give a gratuity to the
man who waits upon him, be he white
or colored, while his conscience re-
lieves him of all such obligations when
a woman performs a similar service for
him, is one of those mysteries which
the feminine mind is incapable of solv-
ing. I have conversed with several
■•waitresses ' on the subject, and they
have always told me that they would
infinitely prefer dimes to smiles, more
especially as their pay is so small that
the problem of making both ends meet
Is for them a particularly hard one.
It may be said in defence of mascu-
line custom in this matter that the con-
duct of the recipients of these amatory
demonstrations would Justify the opin-
ion that they prefer them to small pe-
cuniary emoluments, but the cruel fact
is that the girl employed in a restaur-
ant who doesn't uct more or less as a
flirt stands no chance of retaining her
position. A complaint of a customed
familiarity instead of causing him to
be rebuked would more likely result in
her own dismissal. It isn't alone for
waiting that she is paid. She Is ex-
pected to make herself "attractive.
There are many men of an econom
leal turn of mind whose patronage of
restaurants where women are employed
is largely due to the fact that at such
places they cm refrain from "tipping
withoui. oeing suspected of meanness.
And a dime saved is twenty cents
earned, But all the same, a women
who waits on a table in a restaurant is
lust as much entitled to a "tip as a
man, and the fact that she doesn t get
it is only another link in the chain of
evidence which shows that the average
man will always take advantage of a
woman|in pecuniary matters if he gets
half a chance. That is to say, for do-
ing the same thing he will always pay
a woman less than he will a man.-N.

Cloud Cum', O. T , June 1.1.
(Snecial )—A more philosophical set
of men than those in the gold Held,
in this county never lived. They are
camped out on their coveted land
waiting for the returns from the as-
saver Specimens of the alleged
gold ore have been sent to Kansas
City Chicago and Louisville,
ineum, D C., and Denver, Colorado
During the day the gold-hunters
eo around their claims digging here
and there in the earth in quest of
strikes. When one of these Okla
homa miners finds a chunk of he
valuable stuff he gives a yelp and the
fellows who hear him come over and
examine it and compare it with a
specimen each man invariably has in
hhi pocket. As a rule the las. piece
dug out is voted to be the richest
chunk yet found.
At night the miners gather to-
gether in camps. These camps are
Lite numerous, but they are not as
numerous as the newspaper reports
would indicate. In fact very few
people have rcaobed here from the
eastern part of the territory or from
Kansas and Texas as was reported
Moat of the men here are residents
* this or G county, and if the ore
turns out to be a joke they wil only
have to travel a few miles to get back
to their farms and ranches. Hut

unbounded hope in the worth of the

a Word to Wlven and Mother#—Hew to
Improve llu l nnd .
How few women realise when they
are railing apalnst nan-his faults and
deficiencies—how lurgely they .have
themselves to blame for the masculine
failings! The men who make bad Ijum
bands, nine times out of ten have had
weak, querulous, irritable mothers, and
the women they marry, as a rule, con-
tent themselves with resenting the fact
of their shortcomings without making
any strenuous efforts to rectify them.
So history repeats itself, and the sons,
like their fathers before them grow up
in an atmosphere tilled with bickerings
and dissensions. How can great and
.rood men be the product of such lives/
The sooner that, woman awakens to a
thorough understanding that the key-
note to all family happiness Is harmony,
and that it devolves upon them alone
to establish that harmony, there wil
be more heard of domestic felicity and
less of the "new woman." Kvery man,
no matter how viciously inclined,clings
to his ideal when he can find one, and
it is surprising how tlicy BOinetlmea
manage to deify the most ordinary of
feminine morta's. If each and every
woman would determine to be worthy
of deification by the man she loves,
that man (were lie rightly so-called),
would be inspired by her example, and
the desire to raise to her level would
soon find place in his heart. I dou
say that tliN is an easy part for a wom-
an to play, but surely it is better than
being content to slip down off the ped.
estal that man would place us on, and
insisting upon being made of no finer
clay than he.-Chicago Journal.
