Justice Brewer was once speaking of the oratory of John B. Gough. “1 would go home after hearing his elo- quence thoroughly elated, but when my father or mother asked me what Gough had said 1 could not tell them for the life of me. 1 remember once at a Yale commencement along in the fifties, about the time that I was gradu- ated there, an incident illustrating the force of personal magnetism. Gough was to deliver an oration. He spoke, of course, on temperance. There was a distinguished audience. On the stage were many of the venerable, notable men in New Haven of that day. A large space was clear about the table, for Gough liked to walk back and forth as he talked. He described how a drunkard bhad beaten his wife and came to his climax with, ‘Any man wno would kick a woman ought to be kicked out of the universe!' “He emphasized his words with a vigorous thrust of one foot, whereat every person on the stage, intensely wrought up by the orator, likewise kicked outward as did Gough.”—Kan- sas City Journal. When Tabby Raises Her Battle Cry. Despite the cat’s softness, laziness, fluffiness and purring amiability, ber piercing warcry in the night startles and exasperates us beyond all bearing —not by its loudness, but by a certain vicious, weird, half terrifying, half in- furiating note in it that makes us spring to arms with the bootjack or other substitute for the boomerang, ag the warwhoop of our tribal enemies did a century or centuries ago, says Dr. Woods Hutchinson in Success Mag- azine. One of Mark Twain’s wise old rron tiersman had caught this note when he explained to the tenderfoot that an- imal speech had rules of composition and grammer, just like human speech, and that *“‘the reason a cat riles ye so ain't on account of the noise she makes, but on account of the sickenin’ bad grammar she uses.” And he was right, for the grammar of scalp lifting and the whole alphabet of battle, mur- der and sudden death tingles and screams in the rasping cry. Two Can Play. “Waiter,” called the irate diner, “there seems to be a dollar on this bill I ean’t account for.” *Oh, that’s just a joke, sir,” apolo- gized the waiter. “just a bet the cash- ier and 1 have. I'll have it fixed right away, sir.” “What do you mean about a bet?” asked the diner, detaining him. “Well, sir, I bet the cashier 50 cents ' you would see the mistake, and he bet you wouldn’t, so I win, sir.” “Suppose 1 hadn’t noticed it?” “He'd have got the dollar. sir.”” “Oh, I see. Give me your pencil.”” And he wrote a few lines on the back of the bill, folded it up and handed it to the waiter. *“Take that to the cash- ier.” The waiter leaned over the cashier’s shoulder as he unfolded the paper. It read: “I'll bet you $5 that when you send this back you don’t find me." And they didn’t.—Lippincott’s. Practical Help. “Mister.”” whined the meundicant with the wooden leg, “can’t you help a poor old sailor wot has had his leg bitten off by a shark?” “Dear me!” exclaimed the kind hearted professor. *1 believe I can, my poor man. Come around to the col- lege.” . ) After hobbling along for ten blocks the professor led the way through an iron gate and 1p to his study. “Here you are. my poor man. Now. don’t say I never gave you anything.” The beggar almost toppled over with astonishment. “W-what's that, sir?" y “Why, that’s my latest book on ‘Sharks and Their Ways.” If you have that book with you when you fall over- board next time you won’t lose the other leg. You’ll know just how to dodge them. Good day.”—Chicago News. i Earliest Theater. ‘What was probably one of the earli- est theaters built was the theater of Dionysus, which was begun five centu- ries before Christ. The seating capac- ity of this remarkable building is said to have been 30.000, nearly four times that of our largest amusement palace, The theater of Dionysus was erected when Greek art and literature were in their prime. Here were presented to appreciative spectators the wonderful works of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Buripides. A Sickly Diary. “Look here, old chap, I'll give you a valuable tip,” said the experienced married man to the prospective bride- groom. “Don’t let your wife keep a diary on the honéymoon.

I know the little story is true, for I Mas present at the time and heard it all. At one of the president’s formal receptions a man named Decker ap- peared, and as he drew near the re- ceiving line he told Colonel Wilson in confidence that his name was such an easy one it could not be mistaken or mispronounced, whereupon Colonel Wil- son presented him. “Happy to wedt you, Mr. Cracker.” said the president. / “Happy to meet you, Mr. Baker." said Mrs. Cleveland. “Mr. Sacker,” murmured Miss Bay- ard doubtfully. “Happy to meet you, Mr. Mrs. dence. 3 It is said that a few minutes later Mr, Decker was seen looking at one of his visiting cards to see what his name really was. Black,” Whitney remarked with confl- Friction Matches. Friction matches are a comparative- ly modern invention. They were first made by John Walker in England in 1827, but were rather crude affairs. |’ He improved them somewhat in 1833 by using phosphorus. The first really practical friction mateh was made in the United States in 1836 by L. C. Al- len of Springfield, Mass. Before this time a clumsy form of match was im- ported from France, which had to be dipped into a bottle of sulphuric acid before it could be lighted: This took a great deal of time and trouble, and Allen, seeing the necessity for friction matches. set about to make them and succeeded. He neglected to patent them, however, and on finally apply- ing for letters patent found that a man named Alonzo Phillips, who was a peddler, had discovered through a third person the secret of making the matches and had already obtained a patent. Thus Allen, though the real inventor, was forced to become a mere manufacturer under another man’s pat- ent.—Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. The Kidnaped Brides. In the year 902, according. to old cus- tom, all the brides for the year at Venice assembled on St. Mary’s eve at the cathedral, taking with them their dowries in small chests. There they awaited their bridegrooms. who fol- lowed them, and after mass they were married and received the bishop’s blessing. In this year the sea rovers of Triest burst in upon the expectant maidens. who were all dressed in white, with bair loosely flowing and interwoven with threads of gold, car- ried them off to their barks and hoisted sail. The doge of Venice summoéned his men to arms, pursued the rovers, overtook them in a creek still knotwn as the Port of the Damsels and brought the brides back in triumph. In mem- ory of this event a solemn procession of twelve young women took place yearly, and the Marian games were ob- served with great splepdor until the year 1379, when they were discontin- ued in a time of disastrous war. How They Fight Fire In Turkey. This is thé'method of tighting fire in Turkey. In the center of Constanti- nople a high watchtower has been erected. When the man in the tower sees a blaze the alarm is sounded and the firemen are called to their posts. If they have horses they proceed very leisurely to hitch them to the eugiues or carts and trot to the fire, but in most cases they have no horses, and the men drag the engines through the streets at a walk. They do not hurry to attach the hose to the hydrant. The capraliu first finds the owner of the |huildimz that is in danger of destruce- || tion and finds out how much he will pay to have the fire put out. If the blaze is beyond control the captain ap- proaches the owners of surrounding property and bargains with them for their protection, and of course they pay him hberally —New York Post.

His wish was that a charming daughter of his meighbor, the Earl of Albemarle, should be the tuture Tady Lelcester. With her and her sisters he used to enjoy his morn- ing rides. One morning she came plone, and during the ride he asked, thinking to' forward his nephew’s in- || terests, “Anne. my dear, how should you like to be mistress of Holkham?” *“There is nothing 1 should like better,”. “Then 1 shall send my'|} she replied. nephew Willlam -to court you,” said the earl, giad that the fates seemed to favor his project.
