Williams, of this place, has a very fine thoroughbred Fields water spaniel (imported) that is truly a wonder in his way, says the Titusville (Fla.) Star. He can do almost anything except talk, and is able to find a lost article on being sent for it by his acute sense of smell. An illustration was given a member of the Star staff, who witnessed an exhibition of his acuteness in this direction recently. Mr. Williams took from his vest pocket a good sized roll of bills, and, going away from his dog a distance of 150 yards, hid his money and returned. Upon being told to bring it back, the spaniel went straight and returned immediately to his master with the lost greenbacks intact, not a single bill missing. This fine specimen of canine intelligence recently recovered a very valuable and highly prized gold hunting case watch for Isaac Jenkins, a very heavy grain buyer of Jacksonville. THE STATESMAN.

The four old captains of Salt Marsh, after carefully studying the attractions offered by the mind reader who was to hold forth in the town hall, decided to attend the entertainment. "We can go right from the postoffice when mail's in," said Capt. Gregg, most adventurous of the four, "and there doesn't seem to be any need to consult our women folks, so far as I know. Most likely we shan't stay more'n a few minutes." They were all agreed as to the advisability of this plan, and the next evening saw them seated in the last row, with interest written on their faces. After a few preliminary exhibitions, which caused the scattered audience to gasp and wriggle, the mind reader said, in a solemn tone: "There is one person in this audience who has been thinking ever since he came in here of a person who is perhaps the strongest influence in his life—small, determined looking woman, with eyes that snap and—" At this point the four old captains rose as if moved by a single spring and filed from the hall. When they reached the safety of the steps, Capt. Gregg turned to the others and spoke in a hoarse whisper: "Which one do you suppose she meant?"--Youth's Companion. REBUKE FOR "GRAND OLD MAN." Indignant Lady Resented Statesman's Unseemly Haste. Laura Hain Friswell, in her book, tells this amusing anecdote of William E. Gladstone. Miss Friswell had been to the wedding of Sir Edward and Lady Ermyntrude Malet, and was trying hard to get out of the crush. "I heard a voice saying: 'It's 4 o'clock, it's 4 o'clock! We shall be late for the house, Harcourt; we must get out.' The speaker was just at the back of me and pushing dreadfully; but I, grasping my friend's arm, stood back; then I turned my head and saw Gladstone and Sir William Harcourt. "What do you mean by this ungentlemanly behavior?' I asked indignantly. 'We are late for the house, madam,' returned the 'grand old man.' 'And is that any reason why we should be killed by those horses? If you were men you would keep the crowd back.' "She's right there,' whispered Harcourt; 'we must keep the crowd back. I beg your pardon, madam.' Gladstone looked very cross, but did as he was requested, and muttered something which I took for an apology. They kept back the crowd."

ABSENCE MAKES HEART FONDER Advice of Worldly Wise Woman to Overfond Wives. "If a wife would keep her husband her lover, let him miss her now and then," is the advice of a worldly wise woman. "Men get tired of their wives just from seeing them around so much. The same face at breakfast 35 times a year; the same face at dinner year in and year out; neither realizes what the trouble is, and the wife, as often as not, thinks it is her fault, and prods herself into greater conscientiousness, greater fidelity. Stuff and nonsense! Let her pack her grip and go off for a holiday. Give him the jolt of finding that he must eat his dinner alone once in a while The use-and-wont attitude toward the wife—the taking her for granted—it is this which, unguessed, unseen, lies at the bottom of much domestic friction of the day. In nine cases out of ten the woman is its victim, but on the other hand, it is generally her fault to begin with.

Declares It an Honorable Institution and the Best Manner of Settling Disputes Which Arise Among Truly Brave Men. “I was thinking,” said a New Or- leans citizen, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat; “I was thinking of what a great thing the duel is—how romantic, how poetical, how honorable! Ha, may the day of the duel never pass! It shall never pass, according to my humble think- ing, as long as we have truly good men in this world. I know that it is against the law to engage in a duel, and the law prohibiting it ay be good in so far as it prevents ignorant and foolishly impulsive men from in- viting uncalled and unnecessary dis- aster. “Of course it is in violation of the Jaw of the land to fight in any man. ner, yet we cannot but admit that there is often excuse and justification for a fight. What better manner of fight than the duel? I speak of duels among truly brave men. It puts both men on the same footing, gives each the same advantages. One man is in- aulted at a dance or other social event and he slaps the aggressor in the face with his glove. Nothing exceedingly violent happens, for further things are settled. The next day or a few days afterward the men meet on the field of battle. Neither of the men takes advantage of the other until the time of the duel comes; on the con- trary, the men shake hands. | “Shaking hands is probably the most appropriate thing the men can do; for why not shake hands with the man you are about to kill, or who is about to kill you, on the field of honor? If you are going to kill him, certainly it is bad enough that it has been so decreed, and it is better to keep si- lent when the poor fellow’s soul is fly- ing to eternity; and if he is going to kill you, then die without very bad feelings toward him, if you can do this. Now, I am not a man who be- Heves in bringing about a duel upon a@ siight provocation; for a duel is a very serious thing and often ends sadly. Duels have brought about the deaths of men of many families, and have brought retribution to many, par ticularly unnecessary duels, brought on by men whose foolish dreams transported them to fields of artificial honor. “But duels among truly honorable men are, I repeat, to be justified. Ane I want to add that I do not think laws can prevent duels any more than laws can prevent any other fights. It seems as though every man likes duels, any- how. Read a novel, and much activity overtakes you when you come across a duel in the moonlight. How you strain your eyes and ears, catching every movement, listening to every word! Sir, you cannot deny it, you like the duel.” CAT AND RAT ARE SHIP'S PETS In Peace They Share the Honor o Being the Chicago's Mascots. A sailor approached the officer o the deck after retreat on board thc Chicago yesterday and said, saluting: “Sir, may I have permission to go t the Saturn?” “What for?” said that officer. “To get the cat,” was the reply.

West 15 anal cat 1s the pet of the smp When the flagship went to Hilo, the eruiser’s cat stayed behind to get ac quainted with the cats of the tropics He evidently got pretty well acquaint ed, for when the cruiser returned and “the cat came back,” he was a battle scarred veteran. Beside the cat, the battleship boasts a rat. Not a plague rat, but a white rat from Bremerton, Wash. That rat is also a pet and is a glossy, well fed, well mannered rodent, as white as driven snow. The sailor who seems to be his special guardian says that the more he pounds the rat the better he likes him. He crawls all over the boys, takes his cigarette smoke like a Spanish senorita, and makes himself quite at home wherever he is. But he never gets “shore leave.” The cat and the rat are the best of friends. Once in a while the rat gets a little too familiar to suit his catship and bites the cat’s lips with his sharp teeth. Then the cat looks pained and turns up his eyes to the boys for sym- pathy. He never seems to think of such a thing as eating up his compan fon.—Honolulu Commercial Advertiser, Got Good Dog Cheap. Byrnes N. Watling of the secret servite has a handsome Russian wolf hound. “This dog,” he said the other day, “cost me $200. If he had belonged to a commoner breed—if he had been a Boston or French bull, a griffon or a Pomeranian—I could have gotten his like for $25. “How?

The rooms were artistically dec orated in sweet peas and carnations, no especial color scheme being followed The art work displayed was the won- der and admiration of all present, showing unmistakable the interest which each member must have taken ‘in the work of the club all winter. Mrs. Nealy of 2621 Marion, was the happy recipient of the prize for the greatest number of pieces exhibited, one embroidered shirt waist being ex- ceptionally fine. A beautiful batten- bury center piece, the work of Mrs Scruges, also attracted much atten tion. A most delicious Juncheon, con- sisting of fruit, salid, ice cream and cake, was served, adding the finishing touch to a memorable evening. The officers of the club are: Presi- dent, Mra.

RELATED OF PURITAN BOYS Youngsters Were So Mischievous in Meeting-House "Pues" Had to Be Built. It appears in various quarters that the Puritan fathers had troubles of their own. In the book entitled "Hededitary and Early Environment of John Williams," the author says that in Roxbury, Mass., in its early settlement, as everywhere, boys were prone to mischief, and special rules were made for their benefit. In 1658, when the meeting-house was repaired, the new galleries were set aside as seats for the boys of the congregation. Here this element could be herded under the eye and rod of the tithing-man and within carshot of the preacher. With all this, however, trouble was brewing. Before long several people complained that they could not "sit in the meeting-house to their edification by reason of the disturbance the boys made in the galleries." This complaint reached the town meeting; and the selectmen were directed to consult with the elders about removing the boys, and cooping them up in some place to be built expressly for this purpose, or doing "anything to remedy this evil." Exactly what steps were taken to remove the boys and the evil so gravely confronting the town is not known, but when John Williams was eight years old a new meeting-house was built. In this structure provision was made for the boys on some part of the main floor. Some years later a vote was passed for "pueing the meeting-house," and the ople were given "liberty to build pues round the By this action it appears that the boy question had been satisfactorily solved by corralling that element in some nook which was now entrenched against the invasion of pews. LAND PATENTS HELD UP. Forty-Two Thousand of Them Are Stored Away in Vaults in Muskogee. Forty-two thousand patents to land in the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations are lying in the vaults of the commission to the five civilized tribes in Muskogee, duly executed by the governors of the two nations, approved by the secretary of the interior and ready for delivery. The commission is holding them under instructions from the secretary of the interior and the tribal officials assert that the secretary is delaying action in hope of getting authority from congress to take the delivery of these deeds out of the hands of the govenors of the tribes and have the work done by government officials. The patents have been a none of exention between Secretary Hitchcock and the Indian governors for more than a year. The Curtis bill, as now pending, provides that the deeds "shall be delivered under the direction of the secretary of the interior to the party entitled to receive the same," and if this clause becomes a law as it probably will in a short time, it will do away with all claims on the part of the governors to the right of making the delivery themselves.

It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape. We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice in a whole season. They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is $8.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $8.50 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received. We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented. We will allow a cash discount of 5 per cent (thereby making the price $4.55 per pair) if you send FULL CASH WITH ORDER and enclose this advertisement.

In the March issue of the Technical World Magazine Fritz Morris de scribes the ingenious automatic res taurants which have recently been in- troduced In Berlin. “Cabinets with glass fronts line the walls,” Mr. Morris writes, “and through these glass fronts are to be seen rows and rows of little elevators, with the slots and mechanism for working them. On one side of the restaurant is fitted an ‘automat’ bar. where, by dropping the indicated price into the proper slot, the wished- for rink comes to the waiting cus- tomer. Shelves, all around, on the little elevators, bring up hot soups, hot roasts, cold meats pies, sand- wiches, tea, coffee—in fact, whatever is on the menu, and that is changed dally. All the customer has to do is to decide what he wants. drop his coin in the little opening and await results; In less than a minute, up comes his meal, raised by electricity from the kitchen in the basement, and it comes either steaming hot or ice cold, just as ordered, and clean. fresh, and sweet, with no dirty-handed wait- er, with biack cuffs anJ greasy nap- kin, to take your appetite away while handing it to you.” se 9 6 ~e4 or ~ i ‘ cr Dri eSSI ng GK : a= .

PUT HIM DOWN ON YOUR BLACK LIST. Through the indifference or if ru- mor and public opinion counts for anything, with the connivance of the district attorney's office, Carpenter, the white man who murdered Ernest Shafer, has gone free in his prelimi- nary hearing. The witnesses on whom the friends of the murdered man de- pended for evidence that would hold the murderer over to the District Court were not even called to the stand. Taken together with the inter- views which District Attorney Stidger has given out to the daily press, it is evident that with the prosecution in his hands the case would have been lost. We do not believe that any jury of twelve men, even though they were white, would agree with the district attorney that the case was not worth while. It is idle to rave, the good of- fices of the Sunday Alliance and all others who would see justice done will come to naught. The only thing to do is to remember that through the in- difference of Stidger. a black man’s life is at the mercy of any gun-carry- ing white man. Mark him down; wait the opportunity, and when next his political aspirations place him before you for your suffrage, let no oily prom- ises blind you to the fact that he is dangerous. We don’t want sympathy, but will have justice if it can be pro- cured. og NO EDUCATIONAL COLOR LINE.

Without reference to the merits or demerits of the Negro, it may be said that he is with us, is an ever-present problem, As such, he demands our mest carnest consideration. That he is not always a desirable social element, that he often is a disturbing economic quantity, most of us are willing to ad- mit. But education is the only factor that will improve his condition, even as it is the one thing that can improve the condition of any class; and whoso would deny this help is himself deplo-- ably ignorant, Some kind friend should convey to Governor Vardaman the valuable in- formation that it is better to be a black man than to be a blackguard.—Appeal ‘to Reason, Domestic Tragedy.

Her First Role in Opera Was Playea In That Year With Success. The season of 1859 was remarkable for the first appearance in opera ot Adelina Pitti. This new and youthful prima donna, the youngest daughter of Catalina Barill, under the direction of her kinsman and master, Maurice Strakosch, came forward at the New York Academy of Music Noy. 24 in the title role of “Lucia di Lammer- moor.” She was then but 16 years old, but had already learned to man- age her voice, a flutelike, flexible so- prano, with extraordinary skill and faste, and capable critics at once rec- ognized in the debutante “one of those rare singers who appear at long in- tervals on the musical horizon, to re- vive not only the hopes of managers but the enthusiasm of the public.” This prediction had quick fulfillment. After a short initial engagement In Philadelphia Mie. Patti, piloted by Strakosch, embarked on a concert tour which ended at New Orleans, whence she sailed for London, where she may be said to have fairly begun a career which, like her art, must long remain in lyric annals. Thereafter for upward of forty years she held first place, and during the greater part of that time she was not only a sweeter but a better singer than any other wo- man in the world. Her name lends a golden ending to any record of the early days of opera in America.—Lip. pincott’s. ae Fae 4 , ’ FEIN f 5 “ ie Fi tps > Gate EVERY \ 1] : Uf | bi ie iy , pe Mme. C. J.

An archeologist points out that the hat band in the modern man's hat can be traced to a fillet which in ancient times held in shape a simple piece of cloth. Sometimes this fillet was tied in a bow behind, the tails of which survive in the Scotch cap, the sailor hat and the bishop's mitten. A little bow inside in the lining of the hat is a survival of a lacing which kept the lining in shape, or possibly it dates back to a time when a hat was made by putting a string through holes in a flat piece of leather and by drawing it together for a crown. First Aniline Dye. It is 50 years ago since William Henry Perkins extracted from coal-tar the first of the aniline dyes—"mauve."

Some scientists have put the age of one of these trees at 6,000 years. BEGINNINGS OF THE AUTO. Gottlieb Daimler Was Father of the Infant Motor Car. How many persons remember, asks the London Times, that from 1834 to 1840 George Hancock's steam coaches ran at a profit between Paddington and the city? Is it realized generally that Gottlieb Daimler, the true father of the petrol engine, had worked in England as well as in Germany before he patented, in 1884 only, the Otto gas engine and fitted it in 1886 to his bicycle, which may be regarded at the first motor car driven by an explosion engine? From this date progress abroad was of remarkable rapidity, while in England none was possible until in 1895. Evelyn Ellis imported a four horse power Panhard and Sir David Salomons a Peugot. There followed a modest demonstration at Tunbridge Wells of these two vehicles, a De Dion steam car and a petrol bicycle, and then, after some agitation, the light locomotives act of 1896. In fact, from a modern point of view, Gottlieb Daimler is the parent of the infant motor car and Henry Chaplin is its sponsor in England. A Serenade. Bid silence to the melodious wail and sigh Of countless strings! Hush that sweet bird that sings Within the thick-leaved wild-rose copice! Die Away, soft voices of the night that brings Dreams nearer earth! Let but my voice arise From where I linger, till the melody Hush to lull'd silence, as the black night flies. And shines the roseate dawn upon the sea. A star above and its soft beaming sky Bend o'er thy slumber. Gentle is the night! But thou hast passed thy plotted roses by For stranger trees and viewless valleys bright. Where sleeps the amaranth by the soundless stream; The breathing airs fall silent on thine ear. And music and sweet thoughts but feed thy dream. If in thy sleep thy folded spirit hear. Sleep is a sanctuary from the day. The fancy's dwelling place, joy's bosom friend. My Love to sleep has giv'n her thoughts away. Whom twilight stars and airy shapes attend. And whispering winds, faint 'neath the dewy sky With burden of love's airs and hopes and fears— The rising hope that trembles to a sigh! The ecstasy that has its springs in tears!
