Barker. - ° 3 @ = 3 3 ® 3 E3 K & The records in the war department in Washington are as a rule very dry, but occasionally an entry is found that s humorous. An officer of engineers in charge of the construction of a road that was to be built through a swamp, being energetic himself and used to sur- mounting obstacles, was surprised when one of his young lieutenants whom he had ordered to take twenty men and enter the siamp said that he could not do it—the mud was too deep. The colonel ordered him to try. He did so and returned with his men cov- ered with mud. “Colonel, the mud is over my men’s heads. I can’t do it.” The colonel insisted and told him to make a requisition for anything that was necessary for a safe passage. The leutenant made his requisition in writing and on the spot. It was as follows: “I want twenty men eighteen feet long to cross 4 swamp fifteen feet deep.”—Harper’'s Weekly. The “Nagur” and the Fiddle. Here is a story that Frederick Doug- lass used to tell about himself: Once when he was in Dublin he felt very lonesome. He. was wandering about the streets when he was attracted by two violins in the window of a second- hand dealer. Frederick entered and asked the price of one of the instru- ments. . “Five shillings, sor,” said the Irish dealer. Frederick tuned the violin and began to play “Rocky Road to Dublin.” Soon the proprietor’s wife heard the music and entered the rear door. Then Fred- erick started in on “The Irish Washer- woman,” and the couple began to dance for dear life. When the music and dancing stopped Frederick ten- dered the dealer 5 shillings, but hLis performance on the violin had greatly enhanced its value in the mind of the storekeeper, and as he hurried away to a place of security he exclaimed: “If a black nagur can git such chunes out of that fiddle I'll never sell it at any price, begorrah!” The One Man. A man who was summoned for beut- Ing his wife tried hard to put all the blame upon his mother-in-law and was chided by the bench for his lack of gallantry. “Why should it always be the fash- lon for a man to malign his mother- In-law?”’ the magistrate remarked. “Is chivalry quite dead among us? I knew a man once who never spoke an unkind word to his mother-in-law, nev- er blamed her in the least for his quar- rels with his wife and never had the bad taste to complain about her to oth-|25¢ Fool's Gold. Pyrite, or sulphide of from, occur: quite freely in the iron measures and granite gash veins in upper Michigan It has a brassy color and is known as “fool’s gold” by reason of its shinilari- ty to the yellow metal in the opinion of the inexperienced. The miners call |, it “mundic.” Few people appreciate the great value of this mineral. Its principal use is In making sulphuric acid, and in that form it is consumed in very large quantities, much of it en- tering Into the refining of kerosene ofl as well as being used extensively in the manufacture of artificial fertilizers. ~—Mining World. Great Scheme. Mrs. Simpson in her “Many Memo- ries of ‘Many People” says of Arch- bishop Whately: He was utterly re- gardless of appearance. If he came to us without a servant and percelved a hole In his black stocking he would put a plece of sticking plaster on the corresponding part of his leg to con- ceal the defect. - . Foolish Question. “Hello!” cried the neighbor. *“What gre you building a new chicken house for?” “Why,” replied Nettles, “for a flock of pink elephants, of course. You didn’t suppose I'd’ put chickens in- it, did yon?”’ Applause, A friend having declared in Mrs. Siddons’ hearing that applause was necessary to actors, that it gave them confidence, “More,” Interposed she; “it glves us breath.” - st C Sl S Blond Indians, Oue of the mysteries of Mexico ta presented by the Maya Indians, who inhabit the Slerra Madre mountains in the-lower part of Sonora. They have falr skins, blue eyes and light hair, and students of ethnology have always been puzzied to account for them. There is a tradition, however, that these Indians are the descendants of the crew and passengers of a Swedish vessel wrecked on the Mexlican coast centuries before Columbus discovered the new world. But this tradition is founded on nothing more substantial than a folklore tale current among them that their ancestors came over the big salt water hundreds of moons ago. A Frog of Peculiar Habits. South Amerlca has a frog of pecullar habits. Dwelling in the virgin forests, at the tops of the highest trees, It chooses as a site for its nursery some hollow stump and then proceeds to !ine it with resin procured from trees (n the neighborhoed. This lining serves to catch and hold the rainwater, with which it guickly becomes filled. As soon as this takes place the eggs are laid therein, and here they undergo de- velopizent into tadpoles. How the re- siu is collected is a mystery, nor Is it yet known how the separate pieces be- come welded to form the water tight basln necessary to Insure the safety of the treasures deposited therein. Lions and Fowl. “There 1s a peculiar thing about Hons,” suid a hunter who has trapped big game in Africa for menageries “They will not eat the flesh of a fowl. You might tempt them with canvas- back duck or the daintiest squab, but they would refuse it. I remember once having a swan which had broken Its wing. We killed it, dressed it care- fully and threw it into the cage of the lions, but they would not touch it, and it finally had to be takem out and thrown away. I have repeatedly put pigeons alive into the cage just to see what they would do. I have thrown grain down among the lions and the pigeons have actually got down and hopped around the big brutes, even hopping on their backs, the lions mak- ing no attempt to disturb them, even seeming to enjoy their companionship. There is something rather strange about this which it is difficult to ex plain.” He Placed an Order. A small, sharp faced boy, one of whose eyelids had an inclination to droop in a chronic wink, entered a tailor shop in upper Broadway, ap- proached the proprietor and silently handed him a button. The tailor took it and looked puzzled. “What's this for?” .he asked. “I don’t want it. I've got plenty of but- tons.” P “Dat’s all right,” said the youngster. “But yer want business, don’t yer?” “Yes “Well, just sew a pair o’ pants on dat button.™ The small boy was half' way up the block before the tailor reached the door.—New York Globe. 1t Was Still There. The story is told of a clergyman. who, after he had finished his sermon, heard one of his @ongregation say, “Yes it was a good sermon, but he stole it.” A short time afterward the preacher called on the man, resented the accusa- tion and asked him to retract what he had said. “I am not,” answered the man, “like Iy to take back anything that I have said, but in this case I will, for on re- turning home and referring to the book whence I thought you had taken your sermon, I found that It was still thers.” —8t. Louis Republie. An Anecdote of Agassiz. On one occasion a person entered Professor Agassiz's room with a plcture which he desired to sell, denominated a “Birdseye View of Cambridge.” The professor contemplated it for a moment, lifted his eyes, looked at the vender of the picture, and sald, with his characteristic accent, “Well, I thank my God zat I am not a bird."— Boston Transcript. An Illustration. Little Harry—Pa, what’s a foregone conclusion? Pa—Anything that's sure to follow something else. To give you an illustration, if I were to lock the drawer of my desk it wouldn't be twenty minutes before your mother would break it open for the purpose of fnding out what I was trying to con ceal.—Cleveland Eeader.
