one year the West End electric cars car-

more than all the railroad lines in and
out of Boston carry. In one year the

I remember an instructive anecdote
concerning a sound-in-lung Scotch min-
ister whose discourses were about as
long as Fifth avenue. He had been at
it hammer and tongs for an hour and a
half, and finally came to, “Twenty-
seventhly, you tinners I will point out.”

Red Sea Sharks in the Mediterranean.
A correspondent writing from Nice
under date of Jan. 13 says that the fish-
ermen have caught several very large
“red skin” sharks just outside the break-
ers between Nice and Villefranche.
“This is a very unusual occurrence.
These fellows come from the Red sea
by way of the Suez canal, and I under-
stand they have never been caught off
this coast before. They have a large
head, similar to a catfish in shape, and a
correspondingly large mouth with huge
teeth. A shark twelve feet in length
was brought in last evening, and the
bathers are growing very cautious.”—

“I am surprised, sir!” thundered the

going through the safe one night.
“So am I, sir^’ said the cashier,
thought you were the burglar I hired to
blow up the safe after I’d got through
with it.”—Texas Siftings.
The Wedding Finger.
How many women who fondly love
the golden symbol of their wedding vow
know why they wear it on the third
finger of the left hand? That particular
digit was chosen because it was believed
by the Egyptians to be connected by a
slender nerve with the heart itself. And
these ancient worshipers of Isis held
this finger sacred to Apollo and the sun,
and therefore gold was the metal chosen
for the ring.—Detroit Free Press.
Averting Attacks of Asthma.
According to The Journal de Medi-

inhalation of the fumes, under certain

averted.
The black licorice stick in the drug

igin. _______

A Christian Young Man.
A young man in a western town the
other day advertised for work, adding
that he understood the management of
a horse. But in the “ad” the word
“horse” appeared “hearse.” This is
more than paralleled by a bona fide “ad”
which recently appeared in an English
religious paper, as follows: “A Chris-
tian young man of retiring and sensitive
character desires to be employed by a
quiet and godly person. Understands
the higher forms of gardening, and is an
expert coffin maker. Instead of the
usual beer allowance he will take the
equivalent in money, which he will give
to the Lord.”—New York Tribune.

Lawyers Work at Reasonable Prices.
A remarkable institution in Chicago is
a law bureau founded by some humani-
tarian to aid the pool’ in obtaining their
rights before the courts. In his last an-
nual report the president says: “I con-
gratulate you on the magnitude of the
year’s work. You have received 3,783
individual appeals for justice, and you
have responded to them at a cost of
$4,555—or less than $1.25 each. If the
work were one of mere charity it would
be very worthy on account of its cheap-
ness. But it is dignified and ennobled
by the fact that each $1.25 raises a man,
or a woman, or a whole family in the
scale of civilization—inspires its benefi-
ciary with fresh hope and courage to re-
new the battle of life on a higher moral
plane.”
Not only does the bureau sue employ-
ers for wages due their workmen, but it
prosecutes in the criminal courts those
rascals who fleece the poor. It is sus-
tained by voluntary subscriptions col-
lected among the larger business firms
of the city.—New York Post.

Loaned and Lent.
Some facetious people are just too
facetious for anything, and then again
they are not.
A friend of Charlie Noteclerk’s came
in the other morning and wanted to bor-
row his umbrella.
“Sorry, Harry, old boy,” he said, with
suave deceitfulness, “but I can’t do it.
It’s Lent.”
“What’s that got to do with it?” asked
Harry, apparently as innocent as a lamb.
“A good deal. I can’t lend my um-
brella to you when it’s Lent, can I?”
“Come, you can if you want to,” in-
sisted Harry. “There’s nothing in the
rules and regulations for the observation
of Lent against a man lending a friend
an umbrella, is there? What you need,
Charlie, is grammar for beginners.”
Shortly thereafter Harry walked out
with the umbrella and Charlie looked
like a person with that tired feeling.—

Out of Jail to Receive a Fortune.
Frank Schohay von Ringloeffer,
millionaire, has been released from the
workhouse on a writ of habeas corpus
issued by Judge Stowe. Ringloeffer’s
father was a prominent railroad con-
tractor in Bohemia. He died recently,
leaving a fortune of 5,000,000 florins, or
$1,725,000. Most of this will be in-
herited by Ringloeffer, as he is the eld-
est son.
Ringloeffer canto to this country eight-
een years ago. He succeeded John B.
Schlosser as steward of the Duquesne
club. While holding that position he
became involved in trouble and was
tried and convicted on the charge of
taking money and entering a building
with felonious intent. He was sentenced
to the workhouse for four years, and
while there escaped, but was caught.
For this escape he was sentenced to
three additional years. He served five
years, and was released on a technicali-
ty. About $14,000 of his inheritance is
now in New York. Ringloeffer will not
go back to his native land, but will be-
gin business in this city.—Pittsburg Cor.

To Calm the Waters.
An ingenious invention, with the ob-
ject of lessening the force of waves, and
to supersede the old fashion of floating
oil, has been exhibited at the Paris head-
quarters of the Central Society for the
Saving of Life in Shipwrecks. It is pro-
posed to cover the surface of the sea
around an endangered vessel with a thin
cotton or silken net, rendered unsub-
mersible and ever floating by being
dipped in a special chemical prepara-
tion. The idea is due to the fact that
when crossing the track of the Gulf
stream it has been noticed that the vast
spreading fields of floating seaweed
within the confines of the stream, though
upheaved by the swell, remain glassy
and smooth. The net acts in the same
manner as the seaweed. Some experi-
ments have already been carried out at
Belle Isle.—London Court Journal.

The Way to Make Them Mind.
“The boys won’t mind me,” said the
senior clerk to the head of the firm. . “I
don’t like to make a complaint, but
when you go out they do pretty much as
they please and pay no attention to me.”
“That won’t do,” said the business
man. “When I'm out you’re in charge
of the office, of course. You don’t try
to impose on them?”
“No, sir. I treat them with the great-
est consideration.”
“I don’t understand it,” said the busi-
ness man thoughtfully. “Where do you
sit?”
“At my desk, sir.”
“Same desk you sit at when I’m in?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Oho!” said the business man, “I be-
gin to see through it all. You haven’t
made a study of human nature, have
you?”
“Why, sir, I”——
“Young man,” interrupted the busi-
ness man, “the next time I go out sit
down at my desk. Just plant yourself
there in a businesslike way, and- sing
out when you want anything done. It’ll
make all the difference in the world.”—
Chicago Tribune.
Trapdoors Under the Seats.
Some ingenious and some idiotic de-
vices to insure the safety of the audience
in case of fire have been lately projected.
One is to have a trapdoor arranged, un-
der each seat in the theater so that by
simply pressing a button the occupant
is gently lowered into a comfortable and
fireproof vault below the floor and where
presumably the frightened and half
fainting person is treated to a drink and
a Schweitzer sandwich. - This idea comes
from Paris and is open to one objection.
What are the poor gallery people going
to do? They would be*apt to break their
necks if let through a hole in the floor,
and it would, prove rather an expensive
arrangement to provide everybody who
bought a balcony or gallery seat with a
special elevator.—Stage.
His Boat Ran Away with Him.
A short time ago Henry C. Stoney, a
theological student at Victoria college,
bought a centerboard skiff. Accompanied
by Mr. W. P. Herron, a college friend,
he went down the lake to take “the first'
sail of the season,” as he ambitiously de-
clared.
The water inside the harbor seemed
comparatively placid, but sailors could
see that a tremendously high sea was
running outside the shelter of the long
piers. Some men on the shore w'ho saw
him embarking spoke of the danger of
going out in such a sea, but he ignored
their caution; although his companion
refused to go out with him. With a
small sail up he glided into the bay east
of the harbor. A few minutes afterward
the wind, which was sweeping down the
lake from the west, caught the boat in a
squall and almost upset it. The un-
fortunate student escaped upsetting by
letting loose the sheet, and coming up
in the wind the skiff quickly ran out
into the open lake before an irresistible
wind, which increased violently the far-
ther out he went. It soon became evi-
dent to persons on shore that the frail
boat, with its occupant, was drifting
helplessly upon huge waves which
threatened to overwhelm it every mo-
ment.
■ An alarm’was soon raised, and Mr. D.
Rooney, captain of the lifeboat crew,
hastened bown to the lake. Four stal-
wart fishermen came to his assistance,
and they made an heroic attempt to res-
cue the poor fellow, who had become
sport for the relentless waves. The life-
boat crew worked with desperation to
overhaul the runaway skiff, but after
pulling hard and gaining on her percep-
tibly the wind would catch her sail and
send her scurrying southeastward fur-
ther out into the lake. For miles the
chase was kept up, and after being out
three hours Captain Rooney and his crew
came within about sixty yards of the
little boat. They could see the unfortun-
ate youth kneeling in the bow, apparently
trying with all his might to pull the
mast. Then, with his rescuers in sight,’
a wall of water rose and buried him be-
neath the waves. He was seen to fall
out of the boat, and that was the last
seen of him.—Cor. Toronto Globe.
SJeath of a Feathered Centenarian.
Crocky Baldwin, the centenarian par-
rot of the “Zoo,” is dead. Crippled so
terribly by rheumatism that for the past
six months he had not been able to
mount his perch, he suffered uncom-
plainingly until Monday, when the dis-
ease attacked his heart and he suc-
cumbed. The circumstances surround-
ing his death were pathetic. -
On Monday morning Head Keeper
Byrne was passing through the bird-
house, and, as is his custom, approached,
the aged cockatoo and said, “Goc.i
morning.” Crocky, who was lying in
his cage, looked at the speaker piteously
with his sharp little eyes, now dimmed
with suffering, but made no response.
“Goodby, then, Crocky,” said Mr. Byrne,
and he walked away. He had almost
reached the door when he heard a feeble
little chirp, and turning saw the hoary
bird erect upon his feet. “Goodby”
screamed Crocky bravely, and toppling
over on his side he fell dead. This
cockatoo was at the time of his death
104 years old, and his age is well au-
thenticated. He was brought to this
country in 1798 by a sailor, who had
purchased him in China. The mariner
sold his pet to Captain William Taylor,
who, after spending thirty years in puri-
fying Crocky’s vocabulary, whicti had
been sadly soiled on the voyage over,
died, with his life work accomplished..
The bird, profane no longer, after spend-
ing several years with the family of
Matthew Baird, became the property of
the Baldwins, whence his surname.
Thirty years later Hugh Madeira be-
came his possessor, and after passing
through various hands in 1872 ho was
donated to the “Zoo.”—Philadelphia
Record.
He Offered a Dollar to a Uniformed
Stranger, and Naturally He Took It.
“I had a most extraordinary adven-
ture the other day,” said Noodles at the
Platypus club. “I had taken passage
on a Potomac steamboat. Seeing a large
man in blue clothes, whom I took to be
the captain, standing on the deck I ap-
proached him.
“ ‘What is the fare?’ I asked.
“ ‘One dollar,’ he replied, looking me
coolly in the eye.
“ ‘Here is the money,’ I said, handing
him a dollar bill.
“Then I went and sat down in the
cabin. After awhile a person wearing
a uniform with brass buttons accosted
me. He said:
“ ‘One dollar, pleasel’
“ ‘What for?’ I asked.
“ ‘Your fare, sir,’ said the man.
“ ‘I paid it half an hour ago,’ I pro-
tested.
“ ‘You are mistaken,’ he said.
“ ‘I assure .you that I am not,’ I in-
sisted. ‘I paid it just after I got aboard.'
“ ‘To whom did you pay it?’ he in-
quired.
“ ‘Why, to a big man in blue clothesl’
I exclaimed. ‘There he is now, talking
to those ladies.’
“ ‘Why did you pay it to him?’ asked
the man.
“ ‘Because I supposed he was the cap-
tain,’ I answered.
“ ‘Well, he isn’t,’ was the reply,
never saw him before.’
“ ‘Do you mean that he is only a pas-
senger?’ I asked.
“ ‘Certainly,’ said the man. ‘Ono dol-
lar, please!’
“I felt real angry. After paying ovei
the dollar I went over to the big man in
the blue clothes and touched him on the
shoulder. He looked around and bowed
gravely, as much as to say that he would
be glad to know what I wished of him.
“ ‘I gave you a dollar half an houi
ago,’ I said, smothering my indignation
with difficulty.
“ ‘That is true,’ he replied.
“ ‘Will you kindly explain?’ I de-
manded.
“ ‘Explain what?’ he inquired.
“ ‘Why did you pretend that you were
an officer of the boat?’ I said, getting
angrier.
“‘I never said anything of the kind,’
he answered.
“ ‘But you received my fare,’ I in-
sisted.
“ ‘I think you are laboring under a
misapprehension,’ he said very politely.
‘You asked me what the fare was and I
told you that it was one dollar. You
thereupon handed me a dollar and I put
it in my pocket; I never refuse money.’
“ ‘But,’ I protested, ‘you permitted me
to suppose that you were the captain.’
“ ‘My dear sir,’ said the big man, ‘1
always permit every one to think what
he likes. It is not my business to forbid
anybody to suppose anything. Without
solicitation from myself you gave me a
dollar. Do I understand that you wish
it* returned?’
“ ‘Yes, I do,’ I responded, not know-
ing exactly what to make of the situa-
tion.
“ ‘Here it is then,’ he said.
“I took the money. There did not
seem to be anything to say under the
circumstances, and so I refrained from
further remarks. I must confess that
the incident jarred upon my feelings,
but not being able to think of anything
better to do I simply bowed and strode
away in disgust. Later on I observed
that the big man in blue clothes ap-
peared to be very much amused about
something or other and that the ladies
with him were likewise convulsed with
merriment, though I cannot for the life
of me imagine what they were laugh-
ing about.”—Washington Star.

A dispatch from Taibottom, Ga.,
reads as follows:
Our citizens witnessed a spectacle
Saturday night the like of which was
probably never seen in this land of
queer doings. During the performance
of Frank’s minstrel troop at the opera
house the judge of the superior court,
the jury and the lawyers in the Ealy
murder case were seen to file into the
opera house and take their seats just
under the footlights. “Bones” and
“Tambourine” were interrupted in the
midst of their chestnuts, and a drama
in real life was enacted on the stage.
The opera house had been used for a
courtroom during the day and the jury
entered the opera house during the per-
formance to be instructed on some points
on which they couldn’t agree. Judge
Martin took his seat on the stage in the
midst of the burnt cork artists and re-
charged the jury, after which they filed
back into the jury room. The court and
the lawyers remained in the house and
the performance was immediately re-
sumed. The defendant, on whose life
the jury was to pass, was kept in the
courtroom to await the verdict and ap-
parently enjoyed the show, as did the
court and counsel.—Atlanta Constitu-
tion.
