Instantly the air froze and a gen- eral snliilng among the others boys

NEXT morning. before schwl work began. the principal announc- ed to the boys that he had an ex- planation to make. .He said that hc had looked up the meaning of the word "Lumberman" in an American dictionary and found that it applied to one who dealt in timber in a wholesale way. In England a "Lum- berman" is a rags, bottles and bon- cs man—an itinerant collector oi useful material.

And thus were happy relations restored.

AN astounding colnildence is re- ported in Harold Kellock‘s book about Houdini, the magician. In his early stage career Houdini used to do a "spirit message", act. assist- ed by his wlfe. It was pure fake from beginning to'end. Once, in a Canadian town, a woman in the au- dience sent to the stage a. scaled question reading:

“Where is my brother John? I have not heard from him in nine- teen years. (Slgned) Mary Mur- nhvf’

THE usual answer in questions _ like that was:

"You will shortly hear from him. as he is on his way to you."

But on this occasion, Mrs. Hou- dlnl-who was the "medium" and supposed to be in a trance-recalled a Mrs. John Murphy. who kept an ice-cream parlor in New York and a great friend of the Houdinis. ‘

THE recent reissue this ainsle vo- lume of E. S. Martin's "Life of Jos- eph H. Choute," recalls a flood of stories about that eminent lawyer- diplomatist who weuone of the wit- tlest of men in an age when giants such as Whistler. Oscar Wilde. Mark Twain, William -.M. Evarts and Chauncey Depew were making the whole world laugh.

ONE of the best Cboate stories- ahd it is not in Mr. rtin's book- relates to the time when he was American Ambassador in London. In those days the United States did not. furnish its representative with an oiilcial home and tlié story goes that one cold night a London "Bobby" going his rounds on the Thames Embankment—that haven of rest for r meless derellcts - found Mr. Choate upon a bench asleep.

NOT knowing who the sleeper was, the "Bobby" woke him up, none too gently and said: ' "Ain't yer got no home?"

"No." replied Choatc. "Ynu see, I'm the American Ambassador."

NEAR the end 0i‘ the Second Hague Peace Conference in the summer of l907—a long drawn out affair-the Queen of Holland gave a party for the delegates which was attended by Mr. Choate, as head of the American delegation. Writing to his wife, after the event-the let-
