An officlal ef the department of jus- tice said in Washington of a rumor brought to him for confirmation by a reporter: “This rumor springs from ignorance, crass ignorance of the law. I am sur- prised that you should have credited it. “The originator of that rumor is as plainly ignorant of the law as a cer- tain schoolboy was of French, “This boy's father said to him one night at dinner: “‘Well, how are you getting on with your French, my son? “‘Very well, thank you, sir, the lad replled. “The father beamed with pleasure. “‘Ask politely in French for some peas,” he sald. “There was an awkward pause. Then— “‘But, father,” sald the boy, ‘I don’t want any peas.’” Tenderness of the Hanging Judge. Mr. Justice Hawkins’ tenderness for women prisoners was well known. He admitted it, and he had a great dislike of sentencing these poor creatures to death who had been recommended to mercy and would probably be repriev- ed. On one such occasion the sheriff asked if he was not going to put on the black cap. “No,” he answered,-“I am not. T do not intend the poor creature to be hanged, and I am not going to frighten her:to death.” Addressing her by name, he said: “Don’t pay any attention to what I am going to read. No harm will be done to you. I am sure you did not know in your great trouble and sorrow what you were doing, and I will take care to represent your case so that nothing will harm you In the way of punishment.” He then mumbled over the words of the sentence of death so that the poor creature did not hear them.—London Graphic. Lobster Fare. Hungry lobsters in their natural state seldom refuse fish of any kind, Wwhether dead or alive. The favorite bait with fishermen is fresh or stale herring, but even shark meat is used at a pinch. Lobsters also eat small crabs, sea urchins and mussels. In- deed, there are few forms of marine lfe suitable for food which they re- fuse. Lobsters sometimes capture fish allve, striking them with the smaller of their two great claws, which for this reason fishermen call the “quick” or “fish” claw, but they will live for a long time, especially when confined without taking any food. If you tether the lobster by the large claws, you will find that, like the muskrat, he will go off some fine morning, leaving only his legs In the trap, for this animal has the remarkable power of “shooting a claw,” or amputating its llmbs, and, ‘what s still more wonderful, of grow- ing new ones from the stumps left be- hind.—St. Nicholas. ; ‘The Microscope. There is good reason to believe that the. magnifying power of transparent media with convex surfaces was very early known. A convex lens of rock crystal was found by Layard among the ruins of the palace of Nimrud. And it is pretty certain that after the invention of glass - hollow - spheres blown of that material were commonly used as magniflers.' The perfection-of gem cutting shown in ancient gems, especially in those of very minute size, could- not have been attained without the use of such alds to the -eye, and there can be little doubt that the artificers who-could execute those wonderful works could also shape and polish the magnifiers best suited for their own or.others’ use.—New York American.

There is not a match safe made, so far as I know, that meets all of the requirements of the sportsman as well a8 a ten or twelve gauge brass shell closed with .a cork stopper. This makes a safe that is absolutely waterpraof, easlly opened, is cheap and that will -float. If one wishes to provide against the loss of the stopper, a cord may be fastened about the cork and the other end fastened about the base of the 8hell.—Cor.

A charming hostess of one of the “blg houses,” as they are. called by those who are welcomed into them, has the added beauty of prematurely white hair, says the Washington Star. That which seems to her contempo- raries an'added charm may appear to the crudely young a mark of decline, at least so It appears in one fnstance of which the hostess herself tells with enjoyment, The lady is a connolsseur of antiques, At one of her teas a debutante rich with the glow of youth, but sadly con- strained with her sense of her own novelty, was handed a cup of tea, The cup was beautifully blue and wonder- fully old. The hostess, desiring to lighten the strain on her youthful guest by a pleasingly dlverting re- mark, said, “That little cup is 150 years old.” “Ob,” came the debutante’s high strained tones, “how careful you must be to have kept it so long!” Trades That Kill, One of the most dangerous of trades, according to the Pilgrim, “is the cover~ ing of toy animals with skin, chamofs leather being used, for instance, for the elephants, calfskin for the horse and goatskin for the camels. This covering must of course fit without a wrinkle to look natural, so the wood- en model is first dipped into glue, then sprinkled with chalk dust; then the skin is put on.. The chalk is so fine that it fills the air and is drawn'into the throat and lungs. A year of this sort of work often results in death. Another very injurious toy is the rub- ber balloon.

Tl show it to my friends whep they want to borrow money.” Painful Etiquette. The royal court of France used to be & great place for etiquette. Louis XIV. once caught a severe cold owing to the fact that on his arising from his bed one cold' morning the lord of the chamber, whose duty it was to hand him his shirt, happened to be absent. Not one of the numerous courtiers present had. the ‘courage to trangress etiquette by banding the garment to the shivering' monarch.—London Scrap Book.
