foolish sentimentality prevents the

Ago, however, a concerted attempt to
suppress snoring was made in a sleep-

care of the conductor. On the frst
'night after leaving San Francisco a
| terrible case of snoring was developed.
+ The snorer was appareutly occupying
a berth near the middle of the car, and
bis snoring was 20 loud and deep that
it partiglly drowned the noise of the
train. The outrage was endured for
some hours, when fually one of the
miners announced that “thishyr thing
had gone far enough,” and thereupon
arose and called on his comrades: to
join him. They did so, and, proceed-
ing to the berth from which this snor-
ing seemed to come, they threw aside
the curtains aud roughly dragged out
[the astonished theological student.
{Charged with persistent and intoler-
{ able snoring. he did not deny his guilt,
but listened In silence to the abuse
heaped upon bim, and made no re-
sistance when he was hustled to the
, extreme end of the car, and placed in
a seat with a miner sitting next to
him, and pledged to watch him all
night and “puncan” him the Instant he
j should attempt to resuwne sporing.
| Pleased with the success of their ae-
| tion, the miners, with the exception
|ot the self-sacrificing man who had
undertaken to watch the sporer, re-
turned to their berths, amid the grate-
| pul applause of the other passengers
| For a time the car was silent, but be
{fore very long the snoring broke out
| again, as loud, as deep and as madden-
| ing as ever
| It was evident that the miner on
{guard over the culprit had fallen
{asleep and neglected his duty. The
{other miners turned out again, re-
solved this time (0 wake up the sporer
80 thoroughly that a repetition of his
jerime would be Impossible. To their
{ surprise, they found him wide awake
{and perfectly silent, and It was
clear that the car contained a second
|sporer. As before, the sound seemed
(to come from the middle of the car,
j and when the miners had satisfled
themselves as to the precise berth from
which the snoring came, they pulled
out the culprit with more violence than
{they had pulled out the theological
| student. To thelr unspeakable horror
{ they found thal the snorer whom they
| had so rudely handled was none other
| than the beautiful young lady from
San Fraacisco
Over this awful scene It is well to
draw a vell. It Is proper, however, 0
add that the theological student con-
fessed that he had refrained from de-
pyiag that he was the snorer, solely
in order to protect the youug lady.
Buch chivalrous conduct is worthy of
the highest praise, and the Incident
should teach us that, contrary to the
view upheld Ly a great American story
writer, all the chivalry in the world
1s not mopopolized by miners and pro-

petition asking that in the forthcom-
ing negotiations of a treaty of com
merce with the United States provision
be made to place German sugar on an
equality with cane sugar In the Amer-
ican market. The petitioners say the
existing provisional arrangement pieans
that cane sugar, and especially the
Cuban product, continues to be treated
more favorably thau Gerwmau sugar,
which Is contrary to the treaty, and
that all protestations aguiust America’s
breach of treaty have proved fruitless
