Amusing Stories about Well-known Persons. It Looked Suspicious. HILE on his tour through the State, Governor O. B. Colquitt, of Texas, was shaking hands in a small town of the Northwest, when he came to a small Texan of three years who held a box of cracker-jack. The Governor reached for the little one’s hand, but she drew away; he made another grab, and again the guber- natorial hand was evaded. Now, Hon. Colquitt likes children, and not wishing to slight any of the little ones he made a dexterous reach from the back. The child cried out in a voice perfectly audible to the throng, “Quit trying to grab my popcorn!”* Then the crowd laughed and the Gov- ernor blushed guiltily. Ticklish Rubbing.

How She Was Named. Many children have come by their names in an odd way, but the second daughter of Gouverneur Morris, the novelist, can smile at an absolutely unique method when she is old enough to understand. She was born just be- fore the spectacular return of Theodore Roosevelt in June, 1910. A few days later Mr. Morris was among the distinguished men invited by Robert J. Collier to dine with the ex- President. He sat between John Jacob Astor and Richard Harding Davis. The latter is an intimate friend of both Mor- rises, but Colonel Astor, being only an acquaintance, then had his first oppor- tunity to congratulate the father. To this Astor added a query as to what name the baby would receive at chris- tening “Patsy Livingston,’’ Mr. Morris an- swered glibly, mentioning that the colo- nial belle of that quaint name was an ancestress of his own. The next day the novelist had quite forgotten his gay reply, nor did he remember it until a large silver mug arrived from Richard Harding Davis, engraved: To Patsy Livinrston Morris from Uncle Richard. So Patsy Livingston the child became and Patsy Livingston she remains. Obscured Identity.
