The Queer Legacy Left to J Paris
Archbishop.
Paris. -In all ages devout Catholics
have bequeathed legacies of differing
size and description lo popes, curdinals
unit archbishops, but it is safe to say
that 110 prelate ever was more thor-
oughly astounded than the archbishop

to Hud himself the possessor of a eele-
brated racing stable.

BOOKKEEPING
I'm Uncle Sam's most favoi
I'm hearty and I'm hale;
I've nothing in this world to do
Hut glide 'round with the mail.
Hut one * tiling almost breaks my
heart,
And my nervous system shocks;
It's tin everlasting pennies
That I'm fishing from the box.
I carry stamps and envelopes.
And postal cards and such.
Anil would like t > sell a Tew—
'Twould please me very much.
llut a man can't sell unless you buy,
No mater how lie talks.
So I have to keep on diving
After pennies in the box.
It's all right in the springtime.
Or when summer breezes blow,
Hut a different proposition
When it's thirty-two below;
When all your fingers and your toe.*.
Are frozen hard as roeks.
It's most anything but ftin
Scratching pennies from the box.
I wish to announce to
the people of Canadian
County that I have lo-
cated the finest and most
complete line of Watch-
making, Jewelry a n d
Optical department in
El Reno and invite your
most careful inspection.
An now, quite confidential,
''11 toll, you something more:
A rural carrier (way out west)
Forgot himself and swore.
Says he: "I can stand the
drifts,
1 can stand the frozen locks.
Hut blast the measly pennies
In the blasted measly box."
n woman, the Viscountess de ltalne-
ville, has just died and left her fortune
of several millions, including a racing
stable, to your excellency."
When Monselgneur Amette under-
stood that the legacy was left to him
personally and not to the church, he
refused to accept it. Hut just after his
secretary had left the archbishopric
to communicate Monselgneur Amette's
• derision to the executors of the will,
word camo tlint the court had ratified
j I he bequest, so there was nothing to
do lint to accept the legacy, including
the embarrassing item of the race
horses.
1 The archbishop immediately gave or-
' ders lor the sale of the stud, also of
, the viscountess' properties, comprising
i much real estate, a breeding farm and
a historic chateau at Allonville in Nor-
| mandy. The legacy, converted into
j cash, will be used for various charit-
able organizations.
If the august and unwilling owner of
race track favorites fancied that lie
could wash his hands of proprietary
duties so easily, he soon discovered his
mistake. Ills man of affairs soon
came to liini with a complication. The
horses were to be put at auction at a
big establishment in the Rue de Pon-
thieu. But some critics had pointed
out to this man of affairs that th<- auc-
tioneer was a Jew. Was this a serious
enough consideration lo warrant the i
intervention of the archbishop? it THE TEMPLE OF KNOWLEDGE

| Governor Haskell has signed the

■ oil of restoring court records destroj-
ed by fire or otherwise.
It lias hen unofficially announced at
Guthrie that W. L. leming of Ponca
City h id been appointed by Governor
Haskell to supersede Sam Stone of
Durant, who recently resigned as su-
perintendent of state dispensaries. It
was further stated that the dispensa-
ries of the stale would again be open-
ed within the next week.

evidently was. for a few days later the
honor of auctioneering the horsey was
awarded to a rival establishment,
; where the sale is lo take place shortly.
The collection consists of 25 horses,
j and by a curious coincidence the Be
Kaineville jockeys always have worn
] violet—the archbishop's color.
During the last years of her life the
I viscountess, a woman in her seventies,
i very naturally had not taken as much
1 interest in the horses as lier husband
had done. He was a staunch royalist
j deputy and his wife apparently was a
strong sympathizer with his anti-re-
I publican ideas, for she delighted in
j giving names which were caricatures
of prominent governmental personali-
ties to her horses. Clemenceau was
transformed into Clemencette and
Calllaux became Caiilautette.
Because of the viscountess' lack of
interest in race track triumphs or de-
feats, very few of tile horses which
will lie auctioneered are particularly
; celebrated, although former victories
I of the De Raineville stable still are re-
membered in sporting circles. Slnco
her husband's death the viscountess
has paid more attention to the rearing
of blooded horses than to racers. Her
farm at Allonville is one of the best in
France and many of the De Raineville
colts are sold during the summer sea-
son at the fashionable resort, Deau-
' ville.
