WAS SIRE OF TEXAS Moses Austin, Grandfather of the Lone Star State. Former Republic Asked to Care for Missouri Home and Tomb of Famous Pioneer Who Made Possible its Founding. Potosi, Mo.—Washington county officials have recently appealed to Texas state officials to arrange for that commonwealth to care for the grave and home of Moses Austin in this city. Moses Austin was father of Stephen F. Austin, honored as the father of Texas. As truly as Stephen F. Austin was the father of the former republic and the late state, Moses Austin was its grandfather, for he did the preliminary work, made the treaty and planned the colony that made possible the work of his son as founder of the republic. It is believed here that the recent removal of the body of Stephen F. Austin from a lonely grave in a Texas village to a state-built tomb in the capital city that was named for him, and the memorial services in several cities, will arouse sufficient interest in the Austin family to result in arrangements being made to care for the almost dismantled tomb and the decaying log cabin here. The cabin stands on one corner of the public square of this city. It is all that is left of the once pretentious Durham Hall, Moses Austin's early-day home. At the time of the Louisiana purchase there was no more elaborate private estate than the whole Mississippi valley than Durham Hall, where the owner entertained such men as Aaron Burr, Andrew Jackson and Thomas H. Benton. Moses Austin, under a grant from the Spanish government, opened the first lead mines and built the first lead smelter in Missouri. He was at the head of the first bank established in St. Louis and was a member of the first Masonic settlement period. He conceived the idea of settling Texas with Americans, and it was under a treaty negotiated by him with the Mexican government that the first American colony was established Austin and His Home. in Texas. The consummation of these plans necessated an overland trip from Potosí to San Antonio, the hardships of which resulted in the death of the projector. Stephen F. Austin continued the work of his father, led the American colony into the southwest wilderness and helped the Tuxans to establish a republic. Moses Austin's body lies in aricky moss-covered tomb in the Presbyterian churchyard, not a block distant from the log cabin, not a marble slab, more than 18 inches high, set in a rustic tomb of hand-hewn rock, bears this simple inscription: When the condition of the tomb was called to the attention of Washington county officials, it was their opinion that was residents would be pleased to have the tomb better cared for hence the letter to a state official stating its condition. Had Cost England Many Millions London — Heumann Rassam, the Assyrian scholar, the explorer, whose cruel treatment by King Theodore involved England in a $450,000 war with Abyssinia, ended in the suicide of the African ruler, died a few days ago in the English village Hove, where he had been many years in peaceful retirement. He was born in northern Mesopotamia, opposite the site of the ancient Nineveh, and went to England early in life, becoming connected with the British museum. In June, 1864, after having held a British political position at Aden, at the Indian ocean end of the Red sea, he took charge of the English mission to King Theodore of Abyssinia, who had imprisoned and maltreated the British consul and several other Europeans. He demanded the release of the prisoners. At first he was treated with consideration, but afterward he and two of his companions were shut in the fortress of Magdala and were kept in almost two years in chains. They were freed from misery, cold and hunger, and in constant fear of death. When Gustav Britain sent to Abyssinia a punitive expedition under Lord Maple, King Theodore shot himself to death to avoid the humiliation of capture. THE APPEAL. STREET VENDER A SCHOLAR Verses and Dramas Have Been Written by This London Seller of Chocolates. London.—Outside office hours business men of London have a wonderful culture. There is a culture culture. There is stationed on Lothbury, a street just behind the Bank of England, a paragon of learning, with whom anyone desiring to improve his French, German, Spanish, Italian, Latin, Greek or English may converse by buying a penny worth of chocolate. William Shepperly, a street seller of sweets, is a learned linguist. He is not a lawyer; he is obvious at a first encounter. His French he acquired as a part of the Shepperly, the Scholar Hawker. educational course at a Belgian college, where the English boys were fined, almost to the full amount of their pocket money, if they spoke their native tongue. From Belgium Shepperly passed to Spain, and there, in the town of San Juan de Luz, where he was engaged as a correspondence clerk, he acquired a knowledge of Spanish, Latin and Greek were a part of his school curriculum, and Italian came to him by study. From his Dutch wife he acquired some facility in the language of Holland. Seven years ago Shepperly found himself, no longer a young man, out of employment, at the end of his resources and with no prospect of obtaining work. His wife and three young children were dependent on him, and he purchased a large traypacked it with chocolates, and took up a corner in the city. He has remained in Lothbury ever since, and would not change his way of living except for something absolutely permanent. Satisfied with an occupation that procures him a living, he has his books and his pen for intellectual companionship. Every morning he gets up at three o'clock in order to read and write for some hours before taking up his stand on the street. He has written four one-act and two four-act society plays, one of which has been written by the provincial manager and a provincial manager. His library is small, but select; it includes a fine copy of "Oedipus Tyrannus," in the original; an ancient copy of Horace is another treasure; At present Balzac is his delectation; he tells that he occasionally indulges in such "light literature." Among modern authors, Carlyle is his favorite and Meredith comes next. IS A HAVEN FOR AMERICANS island of Porto Rico Prophesied as a Future Mecca for Our Wetland Citizens. Washington—Within the next 50 years Porto Rico will be occupied exclusively by American millionaires, according to the opinion of Alfred Zeyas, an American who says Americans already are awakening to the picturesqueness of the island, its climatic inducements, and its generally healthy conditions. "The wealthier people of America are gradually realizing what a great acquisition the island is to the United States. Americans are looking for places of beauty and rest. They are seeking places where they can get away from the ordinary, and for this reason I say," continued Mr. Zeyas, "Porto Rico will eventually be designated as the mecca of America's rich. Here they can through miles of mountains, where the scenery equals that of any part of Switzerland. The country is threaded with miles of good roads, the majority of which are macadamized. "When the automobilist reaches certain attitudes in the center of Porto Rico he can look to all sides of him and view the sea. Not only is the scenery of the island ideal, but the climate is that of perpetual spring. Not once in the last decade have we experienced a storm which has made several marital temperatures, coupled with the salt breezes, makes the climate exuberating. American tourists already are visiting Porto Rico in large numbers during the winter months." Crazed by Witch's Herbs.

PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 3. 1910. MAKING SNAP SHOTS OF CELEBRITIES IE past few years has witnessed the development of a unique activity, the purpose of which is to satisfy public curiosity regarding men and women who are prominent in one or of the conspicuous walks of life. This particularly up-to-date vocation might be denominated the "snap-shooting" of celebrities, which means the making of instantaneous photographs of the people who are temporarily or permanently in the public eye and whose personal appearance is consequently a matter of interest to the people of all parts of the country. Few newspaper readers who take delight in the mass of pictures spread nowadays over every printed page, ever stop to reflect what a comparatively short time ago it was that first saw such embellishment of the chronicle of the day's happenings. Most of our readers can doubtless remember distinctly the time when pictures were unknown in their favorite newspaper, and even after crude cuts began to make their appearance in the advertising columns of the weekly paper, they were a long lapse ere the pictures were to be and if the reading columns and a yet longer time before the came to expect not mere scenic subjects but graphic pictures of the current happenings of the busy world. The vocation of snap-shooting celebrities has been the outgrowth—the very latest outgrowth, it might be termed—of the practice of recording in picture as well as in story the doings of all the world. When the newspaper-reading public came to expect the quick reflection in picture form of great happen- SECRETARY OF STATE KNOX, BARON HUNGELMULLER, JUSTICE 'HOLMES AND JOHN BARRETT' Public officials, headed by the president of the United States, are usually the most satisfactory subjects for snap-shots because, whatever may be their natural inclination in the matter, they quickly learn to submit gracefully to this sort of attention. A leading statesman or army or navy official who realizes that at public functions he is liable to be continually in the camera eye is likely to instinctively avoid those awkward attitudes and facial grimaces that sometimes spoil things in the case of a celebrity who is new to the game and self-conscious in consequence. From the standpoint of the snap-shotters perhaps the most satisfactory subjects in this country are the diplomats at Washington—that is, the alien officials who are stationed at our seat of government as the ambassadors or ministers of foreign powers. For one thing, these titled foreigners are possessed of gorgeous uniforms that show up in the unconventional pictures, and then again they are accustomed to being constantly on dress parade. The snap-shotter must "quick on the trigger" and he cultivates ability in this direction almost as earnestly as the gun fighter of the west did in the old days. The newspaper snap-shotters made by means of special cameras made especially for the purpose, and coating as much as $250 apiece. Only a fraction of a second is required, of course, to make a snap-shot, once the lens is focused upon a celebrity in a desired position, but the uncertainty lies in the fact that the celebrity iseldom actually posing for his picture. More than likely he may not realize that he is being caught by the camera or maymp may be trying JAN AND FIGO05 YOAL LAMNER SITTING GEORGE YON L.

A harsh, high pitched voice that rambles on without rhyme or reason gets on their nerves, and it is our duty to shut out all such readers. They have to be handled with care because their hearts are in the right place, and with tact their good intentions may be deflected into some useful channel." KING'S BEARD MODEL FOR ENGLISHMEN. Beards are at present the order of the day among London's fashionable "men-about-town." In remarking about the prevalence of facial hirsute adornments, a prominent hairdresser said: "One would not have thought that the coming of King George to the throne would have made much difference to the fashion of current hairdressing, in view of the fact that his father wore a beard for so many years, but I can assure you it has, and a very great difference at that. In all probability the present fashion of the police dies in a great means to the young man affectful in a great way, that told there was a great rage for beards among "men-about-town" when King Edward first grew a beard many years ago. "In my opinion the average Englishman is tremendously imitative. The style of beard King George wears is appropriately named the 'torpedo' in the navy, and since the king's accession many of the younger men in the service have started to grow them." JAPANESE AMBASSADOR AND BARONESS UCHIDA trated many a time during the colonel's trip through the west. Several professional photographers accompanied him, and a number of the press correspondents also carried cameras, and often it was a wild race for them to keep up with Mr. Roosevelt and be on hand at the time when the good "human interest" pictures were to be had. Whenever Colonel Roosevelt appeared, unless the police arrangements prevented, he was at once surrounded by a cheering crowd, every man, woman and child of which was trying to get close enough to grasp his hand or at least to say 'Hello, Teddy.' At such a snapshot usually yielded only a set of backs surrounding a set of gleaming teeth. If Mr. Roosevelt was carefully guarded by police or soldiers, as was the case in some cities, the task of the photographer was almost as difficult, for the "copers" and deputy sheriffs of THE FIRST FIGHT Snap shot of the British Ambassador and Mrs. James Bryce. the western towns seemed to have much more self-importance than common sense.

To one of these they appealed in vain. "But we are the western towns seemed to have much more self-importance than common sense. In Denver two of the camera men were left behind when the colonel and his party went to the auditorium and arrived to find that building packed to the doors and surrounded by a ring of mounted police. To one of these they appealed in vain. "But we are supposed to be with Mr. Roosevelt's party," said one of them finally. "Well," was the chilly response, "If you are supposed to be with them, why did you and the officer's horse scornfully switched his tail to their faces." It was in Denver, too, that one of the most amusing scenes of the trip was witnessed. The Press club gave a "chuck-wagon lunchon to the colonel in a park." "How can I get a camera men, 'is our chance for some good stuff' in fresh films or plates and hustled out there by the dozen. The colonel, in the midst of a throng of self-invited Colorado deputy sheriffs, stood at the rough board table and every time he reached for a bit of meat or put a morsel of food into his mouth there was a perfect furnishade of clicks from the cameras that surrounded him. The photographers were ranged in a triple ring about the chuck wagon, those with little cameras in front, stooping low; next, the men with the larger hand cameras, and in the rear the local artists, who had big machines on high tripods. It was in truth a comical sight, but the colonel did not seem to be a bit, and went on eating and talking with the utmost interest. The visit to Cheyenne, of course, gave the snap-shotters their best chances for picturesque views, for there the colonel could be caught almost any time shaking hands with the cowboys, cowgirls and graudly painted Indians, or applauding the work of the broncho-busters. There is a Chicago newspaper man who once had the unique experience of being the only person with a camera present at the coronation of a king. The monarch in question was Mataafa, who had been elected king of Samoa by a majority of the inhabitants of those selectable islands in 1898. His reign, to be sure, lasted but a few months, for after a gallant struggle he was most unjustly deposed by the Americans and British, who thereupon partitioned the islands with Germany. The performers of the open, but the king and the chiefs who annotated it to be approached within some fifty yards. So rife was Samoan etiquette that the one man with the camera did not dare to break through the surrounding ring of natives, and had perforce to be content with such views as could be had from a distance. $2.40 PER YEAR OUR MIGRANT BIRDS OUR MIGRANT BIRDS Emigrants of the Air That Go on Annual Itineraries. Alaskan Hawk, Which Makes Prodigious Journeys from Top to Bottom of the Hemisphere—The Mysterious Chimney Swift. Chicago.—No theory yet advanced by ornithologists accounts for the migration of birds. Why does the Alascan hawk quit his home in the Arctic regions and journey with such mighty toll through the torrid zone to reach the Antarctic ice fields, only to return in a little while over the same route to the starting point, spending his whole life in the repetition of these prodigious but apparently useless journeys back and forth from one end of the earth to the other. We know more about the forces at play in the solar system than we know about the impulses of the migrant bird; we know more Halley's comet than we know of the forces that impel the flight of the Alascan hawk or the golden plover. The golden plover is one of the most remarkable travelers in the bird kingdom. The plover passes northward in May to its breeding site around the north pole. The eggs are laid on a cake of ice in June and six months later the old bird and the plovers start south. They loiter along slowly until they reach Labrador, where we can make a stand for some weeks feasting on cherries and becoming very fat. Suddenly the plovers in Labrador rise as by signal and make for the sea. The route is now over the broad Atlantic 400 miles from land, southward to the Bermudas, over the Gulf, through Venezuela and Brazil, across the entire The Albatross The Alaskan Hawk. continent of South America to far off Patagonia. The journey completed the weary, emaciated travelers rest for two weeks before starting upon the sea. The long and terrific voyage over the sea led to the last degree. But the plover lives ten or even twenty years, moving perpetually, and in the course of a lifetime may travel 200,000 miles; a record which few species can equal. Nature has made the bird the greatest travelers in the universe. The chimney swift, perhaps the most numerous of bird species and the most universally distributed over the earth, goes south from our latitude in September and for some weeks swifts are plentiful over the Gulf states, where they congregate seemingly for some great purpose. They are seen in the wild, and suddenly they all disappear and mortal man knows whither they go. The winter destination of the chimney swift has ever been one of the most The Chimney swift. perplexing puzzles of ornithology. Some of the old authorities surmised that these mysterious birds retreated into the soft mud at the bottom of ponds, lakes and streams. Later auiorthites say they disappear upward. The swift reappears as mysteriously as he disappears. Hawks and vultures collect in the upper air and when a large congregation has assembled they move off silently and majestically at a great altitude and we see them no more until next spring, when they return one at a time, without any parade or spectacle birds skulk and hide for days before leaving for the south and then they leave at night.

At the pure food show, in New York, the pupils of the Westfield, Mass, Normal School made some interesting displays of the things we eat and the results are thus summed up by the Herald: Patent medicines examined and analyzed were found to contain habit-forming drugs—opium in its various forms, cocaine, chloral, ether, alcohol, and potassium bromide. A jar of preserved cherries was found to have been prepared with the much-discussed benzate of soda and colored with coal-tar dye, and among other adulterations there was candy made largely of horsehoof glue, shellac, coal-tar dye, and other appetizing substances; there were peanuts glistening with shellac, but supposed to be coated with sugar, and there was ice cream made heavy with glue.

RACE PREJUDICE. I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race JIM CROW TOPICS. A Southern journal gives the fol- lowing sensible advice to its readers: lowing sensible advice to its readers: "When some politician, who has not a thought except to get an office and a salary for himself, mounts the stump and assails the trusts and plutorats, some farmer would do well to arise in the audience and say something like this: "In order to hear you speak today I jolted for five miles over a road full of boulders and gullies, putting hard work on my team, much wear and tear on my wagon and inflicting great discomfort on myself. Instead of spending your time on the trusts and millionaires, tell us how we are to get a road from this town to our farms." All of which is admirable as far as it goes, but it does not go quite far enough; for when the Southern spellbinder winds up with the trusts and phutocrats, he generally tapers off on the Afro-American and advocates the invention of a tew more jim crow laws. If the journal quoted can persuade its itinerant statesmen to devote one-tenth of the time they give to jim crow topics to the establishing of decent roads in the South it will do great good to all the people of that section and to the sojourners therein. The election laws of most of the Southern states place the entire control of the election machinery in the hands of two or three Democratic partisans. It is true that the laws, in some instances, provide that the minority party shall have one judge and clerk, BUT THE JUDGE AND THE CLERK ARE SELECTED BY THE DEMOCRATS. The Democrats invariably refuse to allow the Republicans to choose their judge and clerk. They generally ransack the district to get the most ignorant and trifling fellows they can find.

But it is never safe to generalize, in this instance particularly; for that same carpenter's helper, if he possessed average intelligence and ambition would in all likelihood be foreman of carpenters within a very few years, and would have a big career in front of him. It all would depend upon his application. Given grit and ambition, a boy can work up through the carpenter's trade to comparative eminence, as well as through most better known lines of work.

BY. C. W. JENNINGS. S you, watched some young fellow working in the cold on some half-finished building, driving nails with mounted fingers and handling growth boughs. A After you have thought over it for a while and learned a few things about it, you might do worse than start your boy in this trade. How to go about it and the requirements? Well, there are few preliminary requirements to speak of further than that the applicant should be a reasonably healthy boy, of about 16 or more, and have had some rudimentary schooling. Go to a boss carpenter at work somewhere and ask him for a job. If you are successful, as you will be after seeing a few bosses, your boss will be put to work as helper at somewhere else. You will work not be carpentering. The boy knows nothing about it yet, you know, except that he can probably tell a hammer from a square, and he has to learn before he can become one. And so, for the first year, he will be nothing more than the crudest kind of assistant to one of the carpenters—carrying boards and running errands, and after a while, probably saving off the ends of rough lumber and nailing on joists and scantling. The work will be generally the same if the boy goes into a factory and does what is generally known as inside work, and in the latter he will be advanced at the end of the first year to probably $7 a week, and be set at bench work, nailing moldings, putting window frames together, etc. At the end of the second year there will be another promotion to probably $1.50 a day (pretty good pay for a master carpenter), and when he will be a sort of first assistant to one of the master carpenters and be doing pretty advanced things, practically the same work, except the most particular, that a master does, though, of course, under the latter's direct supervision. His pay will go on a little, probably to $1.75 a day. Having served these three years he will be obliged to go into the carpenters' union. The union will be holding out persuasions before this; but, generally speaking, in most cities it is not necessary to join the union till after three years' preparatory work. Your boy's standing in the union will be that of apprentice, which will continue for two years. His pay will be based on the work he is doing, be making doors, cash and blinds, mantels, wainscoting, etc., and, outside, the general work of carpentry on buildings. After these five years of preparation, your boy will have finished his course of training and be known as a full-fledged master carpenter, able to do any of the work that any carpenter of that stage is capable of, and his pay will be around $4 a day of eight hours for inside work, and $1 more when employed on the outside. The average age at 21. There are few occupations that offer returns as large as this to young men. Advancement from here on to higher positions depends, as a rule, on much more than has been learned in the routine work your boy has followed during his apprenticeship. He will have realized long before the end of his career, that he must vote his time to outside study and practice if he expected to get into higher positions, and will have been burning midnight oil for a long while. There is a wide difference between a mere carpenter and a carpenters' foreman—so great a difference that one cannot become a foreman, except in most exceptional cases, without having the edge of mechanical drawing; and to be a regular building foreman, in charge of the workmen on large build- ings, much more is necessary. A regular inside carpenters' foreman is paid from $6 to $3 a day; and after a very few years, if an opening occurs, he is apt to be made superintendent of the particular plant he works for at a regular salary of $2,000 to $2,500, or even $3,000 annually. This position, however, is about the end of possible advancement at inside work, except he should become a member of the firm. A building foreman who occupies a still higher position should have a good working acquaintance with geometry and mensuration, excavating, shoring and pilling, footings and foundations, the mechanics of carpentry, johny, stair building, builders' roofing, mill design and also know some building building stone, stone masonry, concrete construction, lathing, plastering, tiling, brickwork, roofing, sheet metal work, fireproofing, etc. All this sounds like a formidable list—reads like taking a college course, you may think, but will not be so difficult for an ambitious boy; for evening study and practical application of what he has learned at every opportunity during his work, if persisted in for years, will enable him to acquire it all and to be fully competent to take the responsible position when it is offered to him. You can see the advancement from here on as straight and clear as can be; for the building foreman on large and important work, who is paid $3,000 or $4,000 a year, is too responsible a man to be lost sight of and will be given the first opening as superintendent that happens along, and be given the first opportunity to himself in a sort of general superintendent other superintendents in charge of the construction of numerous establishments. He can take a specialty if he wishes and become a constructing engineer; for there are numerous routes to high success from responsible foremanships, and the pay is ample to satisfy anybody. If he chooses your boy can get him himself into business for himself; for a skilled carpenter is quite competent to take the erection of a small frame house, and this will give him his independent start. All building trades are pretty much alike in general features and pay and hours, and will bring the young worker to about the same position as superintendent. Some of the other trades are different, however, and will be taken up in future articles. (Copyright, 1910, by the Associated Literary Press.) Unique Old French Village Lying so much off the beaten track, the village of Port Lesse in the Jura department of France is visited by but few from the outside world, and consequently this tiny community of men and women of color is but little known. It is not a large village, for its inhabitants number but little more than a hundred, but every one is either black, or of copper color or palish yellow. It owes its origin to the fact that about a century ago the famous negro chief, Tousaint-L'Ouverture, was brought from HaytI and imprisoned in Fort de Joux. Many of his friends, all negroes, followed him and encamped near his prison on the bank of the little river Loue. From that encampment grew the village of Port Lesse and an island, Tousaint-L'Ouverture died more than hundred years ago his friends decided to remain in France. The passing of years and intermarriages have transformed the settlement into a French village of colored folk, all of whom have the vote. Port Lesse is thus probably the most unique spot in all France. Making Salt Lake Fresh. A remarkable engineering feat is being considered in Utah, the aim being to convert a portion of Salt lake into a body of fresh water. This is an ancient dream long deemed impossible of fulfillment, but the present plan gives promise of proving successful. If it is, then will be witnessed a transformation as complete as has ever been seen upon the wastes of the ancient frigid Arizona barren deserts into fruitful gardens. The plan of the engineers is to build a dam across the eastern extremity of the lake where the principal streams that feed the body flow in. This dam is to be several feet higher than the present water level and the design is to divide the lake into two parts. The theory is that the water will flow into the first lake, rise to a level with the dam, and then tumble into the other section. The water in the first division will retain its freshness, while that in the second will be brimming as at present. If the plan proves successful it is believed that the territory adjacent to the lake can be made highly attractive, giving it infinite possibilities as a summer resort. Government Dam in the Hudson. The dam which the United States government is planning to construct at Troy across the Hudson river will wipe out a number of factories and mills in that region by using water power. The head furnished by the dam will be utilized to generate about 6,000 horse power, and this will be sold to the mills and factories at cost. However, the companies will be required to pay the cost of building the power house. It is estimated that the amount of power utilized will be three times as much as has heretofore been employed—Scientific American. Boston's Good Sense.

A. Lawrence, Grand Master. Of course the members were pleased that they were sustained in their position, but they exhibited the friendliest spirit toward the members who were misled, and expressed a willingness to extend a hearty welcome to all who wish to return to the fold. And in furtherance of this desire at the next regular meeting, which will hold Thursday Jan. 5, 1911, an invitation is to be extended to every person that has been connected with the Lodge to house-warming at Wagner Hall, cor. Charles and Western, which has been remoiled and reftitted and, in which they will meet regularly hereafter. The secretary and treasurer made their reports and showed the Lodge to be in a good condition with nearly $150.00 in cash available despite the hard year just passed.

The death of Prof. Alexander Agassiz last spring called to mind many of the incidents connected with the life of his famous father. The career of the great naturalist was one of victory through endeavor. When he first visited America his unfamiliarity with the English language threatened to stand in the way of his advancement. How he met the difficulty is told by Prof. Jules Marcou in "Life, Letters and Works of Louis Agassiz." The first thing necessary in coming to the United States was to master English sufficiently to speak in public. He had been accustomed to translate for some years, but he spoke it so little that he was very hard to understand. Professor Lyell told him, when Agassiz was in England, that it would be useless to lecture in America in either French or German, as both languages were used in narrow limits. He must speak good English if he was to make a good impression. During the long journey across the Atlantic in 1846 Agassiz went to work in earnest to master the new language. He spent most of his time speaking and committing to memory words and sentences, and repeating them aloud to anyone who had the patience to hear. The captain remarked, "I never had a passenger like you, Professor Agassiz!" He, as every one else, was charmed with the Swiss naturalist. His great memory helped him. Soon he had a sufficient number of words and sentences to allow him to speak in public. It was too late in life to admit of his being a complete master of English, and he always spoke with a strong French accent, which was not without charm to his listeners. Youth's Companion. BUCKED INTO POPULARITY Story of the First Appearance of Harry Lauder Before a London Audience. When Harry Lauder sailed some time ago on the Mauretania after a long stage run in the states, an English officer told this story of him—a story Lauder does not particularly like to have repeated. When Lauder went to London for the first time the stage reputation he had made in the provinces had not made much of an impression on the metropolis. With a shrewd sense of the value of striking effects, Lauder decided he would arouse the Londoners to his peculiar merits in a novel manner. From some boneyard or other he procured the most skeleton-like specimen of horsehile he could find. On this he planned to make his first stage entrance. The old horse was tractable enough, with Lauder astride, awaiting his turn in the wings; but when the little fellow urged him forward for the grand entrance there was a balk, a buck, and Harry was ingloriously shot to front of the stage over the horse's head, the animal peering after him with what might be termed an amused expression. Lauder slowly and painfully rose to his feet, while the gallery applauded and stamped and cried lustily: "Do it again, Harry! Do it again!" Lauder rubbed his aching back, felt cautiously of his bones, looked back at the horse, and, turning to the audience, he said: "Like — I will." And he didn't; but thereafter his popularity was assured—Judge. The Handy Woman. Given a water color box and an outfit of stencil dyes and the faded colors of the wardrobe and household generally may be restored by an amateur. One woman who was mourning over the fading of the pretty blue and white bathroom rag rugs which she had made a year or so ago, to match her bathroom bethought herself of her stencil dyes. She mixed them to the exact shade and with a brush applied the dye to the faded portions with the most satisfactory results: Another woman who found the roses of her new hat showing the effects of the sun applied her water color brush with telling results. And in the same family a girl with a faded last year's hat has dyes it with the liquid which the notion counters carry, and as the outcome of her effort she has a hat as good as new, and, if the bottle reads truly, as lasting. Energy and a knack find many uses for these ready-to-use paints, dyes and stains. For Easy Pronunciation. "A correspondent of the London Times, convinced that we cannot go on indefinitely talking about 'aviators' or 'aeronauts', suggests 'alarm', on the analogy of 'seamen'. No doubt it will come to that, to or 'fliers', or something as simple, in the end. But what about 'aeroplane?' No vehicle can keep more than a fragment of its name when once it becomes familiar. The monosyllable serenely has it—'bus', 'tram', 'cab', 'van', 'taxi'; 'hanson' and 'growl' have their two syllables, but very easy ones. It seems an absolute certainly that the flying machine will become simply the 'plane.' The Fear. "I'm a little bit worried about the way my husband spends his evenings," said the lady from Illinois. "Is he convivially inclined?" "No, but he talks so much about 'standing pat' and 'jack-pots' that I'm afraid he's getting into politics."—Washington Star. "THE BOY FROM WALL STREET." The Attraction at the Grand Theater Next Week. "The Boy from Wall Street," a comedy of four acts, dramatized by Owen Davis from Seewell Ford's "Cherub Divine," and with Harry Clay Blaney at the head of a company of four. The next week's attraction at the Grand staging Sunday matinee Dec. 4, with the usual matinees. Seewell Ford is well known as a writer of character studies and he has never done anything better than "The THE FASHION OF THE TIME Harry Clay Blaney and Kitty Wolf in "A Boy From Wall Street" at the Grand Next Week, Cherub." The story first appeared in Ainslee's Magazine and when it was published in book form it immediately became one of the best sellers of the season. Owen Davis is too well known as a dramatist to call for a commentary on his work in this instance. It is said that he has made an excellent adaptation of Mr. Ford's novel. Last year Harry Clay Blaney was "Flip" in Klaw and Erlanger's production of "Little Nemo" and surely he is remembered for "Across the Pacific," a melodrama that was at one time clean and possible. Mr. Blaney secured the manuscript of "The Boy from Wall Street," from William A. Brady who planned to star Douglas Fairbanks in it this season. Miss Kitty Wolfe will head the supporting company and an excellent stage production has been given the play. THE GOPHER GRILL. Mrs. Nora Young, Prop.; Mr. W. M. Gibbs, Mngr.; $6\frac{1}{2}$ W.

TALENTED CONVICTS GO FREE Song and Poetry Bring Pardon to Two; Cartoon Work Frees Third. A prisoner has just been released from jail because he sang well. Only a little while ago a convict was pardoned because he wrote poetry. This sort of thing can be prolonged indefinitely, the Cleveland Plaindealer remarks. Convict Bill Drydock will be pardoned next month because he is a fine cartoonist. With a bit of plumbago and a whitewashed wall Bill drew a striking likeness of Banker Swoo, who is his sematem in the prison dining room. Convict Joe Sketch, the notorious Brooklyn thug, has developed rarest talent as a carver. A rolling pin he whitted out of a bed leg for the warden's wife shows a high degree of art craft skill. Active measures are being taken to interest the governor in Joe's behalf. Convict Mulky Sludge, the Kidnapper, has made a monkey wrench out of a bit of iron hoop from a water pail and two yards of wire from a broom. The fact that he tried to brain Guard Tomkins with this ingenious tool will not weaken a determined effort to secure the governor's recognition of Mulky's remarkable mechanical skill. Convict Jerry Twigs, who poisoned the ice cream at the Methodist church picnic in Skinke's woods in the suburbs of Weehawken last May, has developed a keen interest in line engraving. Entirely unadied, his only tools being a shoemaker's awl and a bit of sandpaper, he made a plate for a $2 bank bill which was so well done that he had no trouble in seiling it to a visitor for two pounds of cut plug, a box of knockout arops, three files and a bottle of sulphuric acid. Convict Twigs's birthday comes next Monday, and his leading birthday gift will be an unconditional pardon. Not to Be Pitied. A traveler passing through the Broad Top mountain district in northern Bedford county, Pennsylvania, last summer came across a lad of sixteen cultivating a patch of miserable potatoes. He remarked upon their unpromising appearance and expressed pity for any one that had to dig a living out of such soil. "I don't need no pity," said the boy resentfully. The traveler hastened to soothe the wounded pride. But in the offended tone of one who has been misjudged the boy added: "I ain't as poor as you think. I'm only workin' here. I don't own this place." Agreed on the Treatment. "Toothache, eh? I'd have the thing pulled out if it were mine." "So would I it it were yours?" MINNEAPOLIS DOINGS IN AND ABOUT THE GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

SHAVED DURING A SERMON Old General McClellan Didn't Want to Hear It, So He Went to the Barber's, “The last Democratic attorney gen- eral of the state of Maine, old Gen- eral McClellan,” the old resident said, “once lived here in Kansas City, He ame west just after the Republicans had gained control of the state, which disgusted him with affairs in New Bngland. “The general was a religious man, but he preferred his own method of worship to that of any church, “But in spite of his pet aversion his wife persuaded him to accompany her ‘one Sunday morning to hear a preach: er who at that time was noted in Kansas City for his vociferous ora- tory. “The McClellans had a pew close to the front of the church, and as the gencral strode down the aisle his long, snow white beard flowing far down on his chest, he made a most imposing figure. ‘The preacher ascended the pulpit, read a verse from the Bible, and uttered the first words of his sermon, “But he had progressed only a little way when he paused in dismay. The old general, realizing that the part of the service which he most disliked— the preaching—had begun, picked up his hat, walked down the aisle with a stride as imposing as that with which he had entered, and left the church, “After a pause the preacher contin- ued with a rather frenzied address. He finished with an imposing, well- rounded sentence. The organist be- gan to play, when—back into the chureh stalked General McClellan, but without his beard! He had made use of his time to have his face clean shaven, a change that he had been contemplating for some time.”—Kan.- sas City Times. CHANCE TO OBTAIN WIVES Turkish Government Doesn't. Know How to Dispose of 400 From For- ier Sultan's. Harem: Has anyone any use for 400 wives? It so, the Turkish government would Uke to get into communication with them. This is the number of women contained in the harem of the former sultan, and the problem of their dis posal is becoming a serious one. Most of them are natives of Albania and Arabia, and two distinct efforts have been made to retum them to their friends and relatives, but the latter absolutely refuse to receive the wom- en, having, apparently, no further use for them. Under these circumstances, the authorities at Constantinople are in something of a quandary, since the cost of thelr maintenance is a con- siderable item; and as many of them are quite young girls it would seem as though they will remain a burden on the state for many years to come unless someone or other can be In- duced to take them over. ‘The situation fs a distinctly humor- ous one, but it is nor the form of humor that appeals to the Turkish government, and the cold-blooded sug- gestion has been brought forward that they should be disposed of summarily. ‘There is small chance of this awful suggestion being carried into effect, however, owing to the firm attitude of the foreign ambassadors at Constan- tinople, who insist that the women shall be treated with due respect and cousideration—Modern Society. ‘Create Laisa teres ‘The Virginia state legislature has gone and passed a law, becoming ef- fective September 17, that requires all sheets adorning the beds of public hostelries to be elght feet long and clean. In consequence hotel managers are in a flutter of providing fall household supplies, and sheeting is being ordered by the bolt to meet Old Dominion needs. Now, wasn’t that Just Ike a man te resort to law in or- der that his “tippy toes” may not be frost nipped in winter aad mosquito bitten in summer? asks the Baltimore Sun, A woman would have drawn her Uttle pink toes to any height of dis. comfort in order to adapt herself to an abbreviated sheet, would have worn fleece lined slippers, would have anointed herself with mosquito re pelling ointments. ‘That's a woman's way; but lordly man, arising trom Aiscomforted slumbers, hies him to the nearest palace of justice, fiings off a law, says “Let there be adequate sheets.” And, lo, there are shects to his liking, even if hotel keepers hustle. patcdanested Matesion: According to a new governmen bulletin the ministerial profession 4 not in so bad a case In this day an generation as we are sometimes le to suppose. In 1906 there were 164 830 Christian ministers in the Unite States; they were increasing at th: rate of about 4,000 a year, and. they were paid an average salaty of $663. It is estimated that this year: a-hun- dred million dollars willbe! aid in this country for ministers’ salaries, and twice as much more for main: tenanco of churches, missions, exten- sions and congregational expenses. ‘Three hundred militons 1s a fair sum of money—twice the cost of the pen- sion list; more than our annual pay- ment for new automobiles—Harper's ‘Weekly.
