One opportunity is enough for the man who knows how to take advan- tage of it. You may have observed that some men make a specialty of melancholy observations. When you hear a woman talking about her ideal husband it’s a sign she isa widow. Never judge the sweetness of a woman by the sound of her voice over the ’phone. Too often the wife’s yearning capacity is larger than the husband’s earning capacity. It is often safer to follow your own intuition than the advice of a disinterested friend. When a man first makesa fool of himself he gets an awful jolt—but he soon gets used to it. Most people are willing to lend a hand if they think there is a chance of borrowing two a little later. Some men are so smartin a busi- ness way that people do not care to do business with them a second time. Remember, young man, if you are not satisfied with your job, the chances are that the boss will not refuse to accept your resignation. FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES Worldwide Launching of Sounding Balioons Planned. Burich, Aug. i, =~ An extemsive launching of seunding ballgems in dAif- fereat parts of the world for b pose of acquiring impertant solefftific data has beeh undertaken by the fa- ternatlonal commission on aeronautios. The plan fnvolves the releasihg of & large mumher of these balloons, to each one of which will be atthched an instrument designed to remister the temperature and humidity which ob- tains In high reglons. Thoese instru- ments also will automatically record data from which can be calculated the ohpnging atmospheric comditions in the higher altitudes. The balloons are constructed to attaln an altitude of ten miles or more. Attached to each balloon will be a notlce printed in several languages promising a re- ‘ward to the finder of the balloon who will return it to an indtcated plase mptly sod oarefully. It is planned 4lse to dlstribute balloons to ships for relense in midocean. Preliminaty experiments from natlonal heddquar- tors 'fi Zurich have been motably sue- el nternational Fure rooa Gongress.

TWO COUNTRIES IN ACCORD Energetic Measures to Be Taken In Conformity With Algeciras Confer- ence as a Result of the Recent Mas- sacre in the Moroccan Port. Paris, Aug. 5.—Exchanges between the cabinets at Paris and Madrid con- cerning the programme to be pursued in Morocco as an outcome of the Casa Blanca massacre of last Wednesday are proceeding actively. No difficulty is anticipated, but pending a complete agreement the French forelgn office limits itself to the announcement that “energetic measures in conformity with the spirit of the Algeciras con- ference and In concert with Spain will be taken.” In addition to punitive measures at Casa Blanca there is reasen to be- lleve that France desires the imme- dlate inauguration of the police force at eight Moroccan ports as provided for in the Algeciras agreement, this measure to be accompanied by a naval demonstration along the entire Moroc- can coast. Six French warships are in readiness at Toulon. It is thought it Spain agrees that Casa Blanca will be occupied within one week by French and Spanish troops, who will guard the gates of the town, permit fugitives to return and afford protec- tlon for the resumption of work by the French company on the harbor improvements. No bombardment is deemed necessary, but the depdsition of Maelanin Pasha and the punish- ment of those responsible for the mas- sacre will be the first exactions. The powers who signed the Algeciras com- pact will be nétified of every step taken by France and Spain. Frefch Transporte Sal. Toulon, Aug. 5.—The transport Nive has left here for Oran, Algeria. Two other transports are to leave shortly. The Second naval division under the command of Rear Admiral Joseph Al- phonse Philibert is ready to steam away at a moment’s notice.

The Hohenzollern was accompanied by two small crulsers and a flotilla of torpedo boats. Emperor Nicholas went on board the Hohenzollern and was Invited to remain and review the German fleet. The Hohenzollern then returned to Swinemunde and the two emperors reviewed the German fleet, which consisted of elghteen battle- ships, seven cruisers, a number of auxiliary vessels, a flotilla of torpedo boats and minor craft. A salute was fired {n honor of Emperor Nicholas and the crews of the German vessels manned the yards. Emperor Nicholag lunched on board the Hohenzollern, returning later to the Standart. The German emperor paid his return call to the Russian sovereign on board the Standart in the afternoon. The two sovereigns had a long talk. Prince von Buelow, the German imperial chancellor, and M. Iswolsky, the Rus- slan foreign minister, were present at and took part in the conversation. TWO HUNDRED WARSHIPS. British Home Fleet Reviewed by King and Queen. Portsmouth, Eng., Aug. 5—The 200 ships of war constituting Great Brit- aln’s home fleet paraded before King Edward and Queen Alexandra in the Solent and incidentally furnished a magnificent pageant for the opening of the annual Cowes regatta week. Spread out In seven long lines be- tween the Isle of Wight and the Hamp- shire shore this splendid array of vessels, great and small, formed a floating steel clty with a population of 85,000 officers and men. Never before have so many British men-of-war been seen together under the control of a single admiral. From the battleship Dreadnought down to the smallest submarine every vessel was decked from stem to stern with flags. The orews were assembled on deck and as the king and queen on board the royal yacht Victoria and Albert passed down the lines each ship’s company gave a rousing cheer. For eleven miles up and down the king and queen steamed between steel walls. Tribesmen Defeat Government.

Several calds are among the killed and General Bagdani had his leg broken. Reinforcements have been dispatched. WORSE THAN LAST YEAR. Nerthwest Threatened With Another Coal Famine. Oleveland, Aug. '/—The Northwest will sufter a more severe coal famine during the cqming winter than the record breaking one last year which oost 80 many lives, according to big ocoal skippers of this ofty. It 14 declared that the inability of the railroads to supply the boats with || enough goal and the great demand about a farreaching shortage of the supply of fuel at the upper lakes. With the best of fortune and if all the hopes of vesselmen are fulfiljed the region out beyond the upper lakes will have from 3,000,000 to 5,000,000 tons of coal less than it will require, according to estimates made by the prominent shippers. Ohio shippers are rushing fuel to upper lake polnts in every vessel they can charter. Since the opening of navigation shipments to the Head of the Lakes are considerably greater at this time than they were a year ago. Many boats, however, are tiedsup in the river here awalting cargoes for the reason; according to one of the shippers, that the rallroads are not bringing in coal fast enough to load the ships. ENORMOUS PROFITS. Pennsylvanla Capitol Contractor Made 2,100 Per Cent. Beach Haven, N. J, Aug. J—The Pennsylvania capitol commission, which is here preparing a report to Governor Stuart on its investigation of the charges of fraud in connection with the furnishing of the Pennsyl- vania state capitol, has made public certaln papers bearing on the con- tracts for the interlor painting of the building which indicate that the con- tractor made enormous profits on the work. They show that John H. San- derson of Philadelphia, the contractor for most of the furnishings and dec- oratlons, pald the various sub-con- tractors who d/d the painting 12 cents a square foot and that he had col- lected from the state $2.52 a square foot for the same. He receilved in payment more than $700,000 and the profits were about 2,100 per cent. ONE DEAD, SEVERAL HURT Serlous Anti-Clerical In Italy. Spezzfa, Italy, Aug. )—The anti- clerical feeling which has been run- ning high in this part of Italy for sev- eral days past as a result of the al- leged immoral practices of the Sa- lesian fathers in their schools at Varezze culminated in a violent anti- clerical demonstration which brought -put a three cornered fight in this City between the angry populace, a detachment of carbineers and a num- ber of the Saleslan fathers. The fathers attacked the carbineers with stones and attempted to disarm them. The crowd then mixed in and shots were exchanged. Four carbineers were wounded. One of the mani- festants was killed and two were wounded. d GIVEN LIGHT SENTENCE. Strange Plea of Murderer Accepted as Extenuating Circumstances. Vienna, Aug. }.—A Hungarian peas- ant at Neusandec, charged with mur- dering his eighteen-year-old daughter, admitted the crime but pleaded that she was so ugly he had no chance of getting her married. The jury decided that this plea established extenuat- ing" circumstances and brought in a verdict of manslaughter. The court accepted this and sentenced the pris- oner to three years’ imprisonment. Demonstration BRIEF BITS OF NEWS. John Rose Ficklen, professor of his- tory and political science in Tulane university and one of the most widely known educators in the South, is dead.

New Orleans, Aug. 5.—The latest returns here from the Mlnhllppl senatorial primary make it appear doubtful whether John Sharp Will- iams has won the election over Gov- ernor Jones K, Vardaman. These fig- ures, which are unofficial, give Varda- man the election by 58 votes. The closeness of all returns re- celved here indicates that the official count will probably be necessary to decide the election. It may require another day to get this count. sippl Ap- Jackson, Miss, Aug. 5.—With one county to hear from John Sharp Will- fems leads in the race_for United States senator by, less than 2,000 votes. The county to be heard from is Jeff Davis, a small county in the southern part of the state, which will break about even, GRAVELS RICH IN GOLD. Government Inspects Worked Over Districts of the Yukon. Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 5.—The Cana- dian government has had an examina- tion made of the gold producing dis- tricts of the Yukon to see what amount of gold was still to be ob- tained from gravel banks, hillsides and valleys, where the ploneer miner with placer methods has skimmed off the rich cream. Four experts spent a season sampling, surveying, boring and measuring the gravels. They estimate that there is still almost $64,000,000 gold to be taken from gravels which have already -ylelded $119,000,000. To recover what is still scattered through the soil advanced mining methods will have to be used. Took It Literally, It is told of the late Chauncey Sha- fer, who bears the same rclation to New York’s “anecdotage” that Sydney Bmith does to London'’s, that he em- ployed in his law office a stunted youth of very tractable temperament. One day Mr. Shafer returned from lunch in a lively mood and, by token of the madeira he had consumed, sum- moned Billy Into his private oflice. “Boy,” he said carelessly, “go over to the speclal term and see what in — they’re doing up theve,” The late Judge Brady was presiding over the trial of an action Involving many Interesting questions of substan- tive law; hence the courtroom was empty save for the litigants, their coun- sel and the necessary witnesses. Judge Brady's kindliness toward women and children was proverbial, and when Bllly stood against the railing of the Inclosure, his face barely reaching the balustrade, the judge noticed him im- mediately. He Interrupted the argun- ments of counsel and turned to Billy. “Well, my lad,” he said in suave, judictal accents, “what can I do for you?” “I'm from Mr. Shafer’s office,” Billy replied, “and he wants to know what In — you're up to over here.”—Success Magazine. From Out the Grave. In the little village of Tewin, Hert- fordshire, England, there are five large trees growing out of a single grave, and thereby hangs a curlous story. On the slab that marks the grave was carved the inscription: “Here lyeth inter'd the body of the Right Honorable Lady Anne Grime- stone, wife of Sir Samuel Grimestone, Bart., of Gohambury, in Hertfordshire, daughter of the late Right Honorable the Earl of Thanet, who departed this life Nov. 22, 1713, in the sixtieth year of her age.” The village story says that Lady Grimestone, persisting in a lifelong de- /| nial of the existence of a God, on her MAY IMPOSE MARTIAL LAW deathbed declared in answer to the Anti-Clerical Rioting Continues ‘in Northwestern Italy. Rome, Aug. 5—The government is threatening to imposc martial law in a number of towns in Northwestern Italy unless the violence in connec- tion ‘with the anti-clerical agitation comes at once to an end. At Mantua a crowd of manifestants pillaged some churches and burned a number of sacred objects and at Turl a workman attacked and wounded a priest in the street. At Savona there were violent anti-clerical manifestations and the guard over the prison where the Sa- lesian fathers from Varisse, who are charged with immoral practices, are locked up was reinforced to protect the fathers from the mob. Threat Regarded as Serious. Lancaster, Pa., Aug. )—“Surrender $10,000 or be murdered along with your sister,” was the substance of a letter received by Charles B. Grubb, one of Lancaster's wealthy men. It was at first thought to be a joke and no attention was paid to it until it was sent to Postmaster Miller. He at once expressed the bellef that he knew the writing and the police are now hunting for the writer suspected, as they regard the threat as serious. Bascom and s Students. John Bascom, once president of the University of Wisconsin, always~had a keen insight into men, and for much of his life college students constituted mankind for him. Once when he was @ class officer the names of two men were read by him as absent from morning prayers. One of them, a ple- tist, stopped at his desk and said: “Professor, when the chapel bell was ringing I was engaged. in prayer and did not hear it.” “You're not excused,” responded John, with contempt in his eye and In his voice. Then, calling back the other man, who was about at the door on his way out of the room, he said to him: “What’s your excuse?”’ “I haven'’t any, sir.” “You're excused. He used to have debates in his class- room. At one of them a student, whom Bascom subsequently described as a “florlating fellow,” in the heat of his eloquence said, “I wish that I had the ability and the time to exhaust this subject.” “You have the time,” sald Bascom.— Harper's Weekly. Smart Boy Wins. The visitor was examining the class of small boys. He held the chalk In midalr, “What number shall 1 draw on the board?” he asked of one boy. The boy replied, “Thirty-two.” The visitor drew the number back- ward, which made twenty-three. “Is that right?” asked the visitor. “Yes, sir; yes, sir,” answered the boy in a timid way. 24 “What number shall I take now?” he asked of another. The boy answered, “Sixty-two,” whereupon the visitor drew the num- ber backward, as before—twenty-slx. T| “Is that right?” he asked. “Yes, sir,” replied the boy. A long ‘way back a bright eyed boy held up a wavering hand. ““What number shall I draw for you?” asked the visitor. The boy called out, “Forty-four!” Then, when the visitor had drawn it, he yelled out, “Now, if you are so blamed smart, twist that around!”— New York Globe. He Knew.

Animal Peculiarities. A herd of wild" Asian buffaloes will charge any foe, even a tiger, to save the life of one of their number that has been wounded. Elephants, baboons and other animals will do the same thing in a wild state. On the other hand, monkeys have been known to fall upon one of their number that is i1l and drown him, pos- sibly as an act of mercy. Similarly wolves destroy one of the pack that becomes helpless. If an otter is trapped, his brother ot- ters will run around him all night, showing the utmost concern. A writer in the London Spectator T ‘states’ that he has seéen sparrows n groups discussing and lamenting when one of their number had fallen into a trap. Next day, when a robin was caught, the sparrows paid no attention. He adds that he had- seen a big pig try to help a smaller one through a hole in the fence paling by pulling at its head. Ch e Music. The Chinese have eight instruments for making thelir ritual music—the bell, the flute, the drum, the sonorous stone, the fife, the plume, the shield and the ax. The last three make no music, but are used as decoration or emblem In the musical ceremonies and are enu- merated as musical Instruments. In every ceremony there are always two instruments of each kind, sometimes a8 many as four or six, never an odd number, In order to emphasize the duality of the Chinese people. For in- stance, one drum announces the be- glnning of the music, and its mate strikes the last note; one bell calls, and Its counterpart answers. Why He Felt Happy. “Vernon told me this morning,” re- lated the lady with the cold blue eye, “that he passed the tree where two years ago he carved your initials and his own and encircled them with a heart. He says he felt so glad he al- most danced for joy!” “Ah,” sald the tall brunette anxious- ly, “then he must still love me, after all! Did he tell you why he felt so happy ?” “Yes, dear. He sald some men were Cutting the tree down!” The Boomerang and Its Inventors. The boomerang is rather a puzzle. One might think that the highest laws of mathematics had been laid under contribution in the perfecting of it. The convexity on one side, the flatness on the other and the sharp, knifelike edge on the inside of the convexity have the air of having been carefully thought out. Yet the people who in- vented this singular weapon cannot count higher than five and are desti- tute of all the arts and amenities of life. Theirs is perhaps the lowest plane of human life.
