Richardson, the view photographer, and his assistant, T. S. Osbord, went to the Indian agency Crows and Strings. It was proved centuries ago that a crow can count up to three and no more. I met a farmer once who said that his corn crop had not failed in twenty years owing to his habit of stringing his field. He explained: “No crow will enter an angle formed by two strings stretched on poles. I {llustrated this to some friends sev- eral years ago by sowing a small field in corn for fodder, protecting it by a zigzag string running from one end to the other. Within the angles formed by the string not a blade of the young crop was touched, but close without them, at each end, the whole crop was demolished. A crow is a very wise fool, and this is an effective and cheap way of circumventing him.” — New York Press. 8ign Language on the Curb. Any one would imagine all the curb brokers in Broad street were mutes. They use the sign language down there now to convey quotations and sales to their office boys and clerks ‘who sit in the windows of the offices to catch the quotations. As a matter of fact, some of the brokers use the deaf and dumb alphabet; others use a distinct signaling ‘code of their own, known only to the one single house and - its representative. Even this, however, has to.be changed now and then. = The brokers possess & nimble wit, and they soon learn the secret signs of their competitors.—New York Cor. Pittsburg Dispatch. The Missouri Girl is a play that pleases at all times. It contains all the elements that go to make up an evening’s entertainment;—a good interesting story, strongly drawn characters, the funniest kind .of comedy, red hot specialties and a wealth of beautiful scenery and stage effects.

What s called the longest will on record is that of - Captain Robert Keayne, founder of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Bos- ton. It contains about 50,000 words. Print- | ed and bound, it would make a: good sized volume, comparing favorably in length with many a novel of the pres- ent day. In its voluminous: proportions this will is in strikings contrast to one pro- bated In New Orleans a number of years ago, in which the testator dis- posed of its earthly possessions in five words—namely, “Mistress Roper is my hefress.” The original of Captain Keayne's will i8 carefully preserved in the vaults of the register of probate of Buffolk county. . In volume 1 of the record of wills probated it covers 140 pages, and it 18 recited in the will that the document was drawn up in the handwriting of the testator. ‘While Captain Keayne, who was originally a merchant tailor in London, left a fortune of fair proportions for his day, it is of interest to note that at the present day fortunes of millions of dollars are frequently disposed of in complicated trusts by only a few hun- dred words.—Boston Post. Chivalry and Fatness. Have you never noticed that great personal bulk and chivalry go almost always together? Well, they do, and T am reminded of a circumstance that happened long years ago. There was in congress from the state of Alabama a gentleman named Dixon Lewis. He 'was notorious for his stoutness as well as for his courtliness and abilities. This gentleman was a Virginian by birth, but_removed early to Alabama, which state he represented during several terms of congress and was in the sen- ate at the time of his death in 1848. Blographers relate of him that one time after the adjournment of con- gress he was on his way home in a steamer that was wrecked and while he had an opportunity to do so refused to take a seat in a small boat because his great weight would jeopardize the Hves of others in the boat, and, al- though for a time he was in great dan- ger, he was at last rescued. There was a noticeable combination of chivalry and fatness.—Washington Post. Famous Epicures. In the celling of the dining room in Nero’s “golden house,” on the Palatine hill, were compartments inlaid with fvory which revolved, showering per- fumes and flowers on the guests. Flowers were presented to the guests by slaves. They were crowned with ‘wreaths. Usually after one course the tables were removed and others placed before the guests. Throughout the meal drinking continued until the ban- queters fell under the table stupefied. In those days men lived to eat. Great generals spent fortunes accumulated in years of warfare in gratifying their appetites. Lucullus on one dinner with Cicero and Pompey spent 50,000 drachmas, or $7,000. Pithylus, who was famed for the delicacy and origi- nality of his dinners, wrapped his tongue in linen when not using it. That he might better appreciate flavors of the viands he had it cleaned with fish skin before dining. Earthquakes as Warnings. ‘The belief that earthquakes are signs or warnings owes its origin in part to prophecies in the Bible, where, for ex- ample, we read that ‘“there shall be famines and pestilences and earth- quakes” as portending future calami- ties. Barthquakes have led to the abo- litlon of oppressive taxation, the abo- ltion of masquerades, the closing of theaters and even to the alteration of fashion. A New England paper of 1727 tells us that “a considerable town in this province has been so far awakened by the awful providence in the earth- quake that the women have generally laid aside their hooped petticoats.”— Nature. Rule of Three. “Well,” said a persevering governess, “I will put it in another form. If it takes one servant nine hours to do the entire housework of a family how long will it take three servants to do it?” Tommy — Oh, I know, teacher. 1 heard mamma speak of it only this morning.. Governess—Well, take them? Tommy—Three times as long.—Lon- don Tatler. how long will it Treason and Reason. Archbishop Ryan once concluded a brilliant defense of the Irish cause when a listener shouted: “But the Irish are guilty of treason.” “Perhaps,” replied the archbishop, “but please remember that what is treason elsewhere becomes reason in Ireland because of the absentee”— Cleveland Leader. Getting Along. Miss Goodley—Miss Hussle goes in for everything. She’s constantly doing something. Miss Knox—Yes, but the one thing she is doing most steadily she won’t admit. Miss Goodley—What is that? Miss Knox—Growing older.— Catholic Standard and Times. Too Much of:-It. Greene—How does it happen that you don’t trade at Cleaver’s any more? You used to brag about the mnice cuts’ of meat he always sent you. Is it because he wouldn’t give you credit? Gray—On the contrary, it is because he did.—Bos- ton Transcript. Tommy’s Lesson. Tommie—But, mamma, fingers were made before forks. Mamma—Yes, my boy, and dirt was made before pie, but you prefer pie, don’t you, Tommie? —Yonkers Statesman. Selwyn’s Curious Taste. George Selwyn had a strange but not uncommon passion for seeing dead bodies, especially those of his friends. He would go any distance to gratify this pursuit. Lord Holland was laid up very Il at Holland House shortly be- fore his death. George Selwyn sent to ask how he was and whether he would ke to see him. Lord Holland' an- swered: “Oh, by all means!
