Where Sympathy Counts
Wlion the shah was in Paris last
year he was accompanied by an ofli
rial named Mahmoud Khan, who is not
with him now. A French journalist
who remembered Mahmoud well, put
some questions about him the other
day,to a member of the shah’s retinue.
*• What has become of Mahmoud
Khan?” inquired the journalist.
••He is dead, monsieur.” was the
answer.
••Poor fellow! Hut surely lie was
young and seemed to enjoy excellent
health."
“It was excellent.” assented the
Persian functionary.
*• Was lie ill very long?”
“ No, monsieur. He was not ill at
all. He died quite suddenly.”
“Indeed! How did it happen?”
The Persian functionary explained)
(with slightly embarrassed air). “He
was not sympathetic to the grand)
vizier.”
A new steam shovel and traction
dredge has just b.-e.i installed on Lig

Senator Allison’s Caution
Senator Allison of Iowa i" noted for
the caution which characterizes hi
utterances. Once when he was seated
in a railway car gliding through Iowa
his traveling companion directed his
attention to a Hock of sheep. “I
see they have begun shearing," his
friend remarked. The senator gazed
thoughtfully at the shorn lambs, and
reluctantly admitted, ••They certainly
have sheared ’em on this side."
