Many readers have probably hoard of New York's famous lirace church ,lt Broadway and Tenth street, wtiero there la a choir of "babies," ranging in age from 4 years up, which church is aald to be erected ou land more val uable even tliau that wberoon St. Paula at I.o:nlon stands. Here It Is the custom to offer by auction all pews, w hich the present owner desire to re linquish, says the St. Louis IVst-lMs-patch, and which possibly may have been In their family ever stuce the church was built A few months ago pew No. 40, In the south transept of Grace church, waa put up at auction. In the New York real estate sales rooms for the trus tees of the estate of the late Henry Kay. The bidding was started at H) and rose rapidly to 1,000, when there was a pause. Then some one offered another hundred and the bidding ad vaneed to U,300. and Just about to be knocked down for this sum when Hamilton U. King sprung another $30 and secured the pew. . On being asked if lie was spending all this money for his own religious comforts Mr. King stated that he had purchased the pew for another person, but whom he refused to state. The pew is a "family" one and holds six, ia up holstered in dark red and, according to the auctioneer, comfortable enough to foster the highest forms of religious charltv. The lew In Grace church, with few exceptions, are owned by those who occupy them, and when one does find its way Into the market It Is eagerly purchased by rich parish ioners. One of the most fashionable churchea In New York is St. Bartholo- mom-'a In Mmliann avetllie. Till is known as "The Vanderbllts' church, for here the millionaires of that uame worship. Tews in St. Bartholomew's can often be rented, but now seldom purchased, most of the pews being owned by residents of "Millionaire row." In Fifth avenue. Occasionally. however, a pew In this church ha come under the hammer, when it has brought a considerable sum of money, as much as .".ih.i having been paid for six "sitting" near the pulpit In the Catholic cathedral, close by. pews are also sold at auction, at times, and. owing to the magnificent choir which this church supports, bring small fortunes. When Peggy Pokes the Fire. Wbcu Pcssy pokes the kitchen fire Siie makes a picture fair; I lingrr till I miss my car To see her working there She takes the poker half way up, t'erhaps a little higher. Falls on her knees before the range Aud starts to poke the fire. Her slender arms are fair to see, Bared to her elbows white; Her graceful movements as she jabs Just till me with delight. Left hamled? Oh, but what of that? I never could quite tire Of seeing Peggy on her knees While poking at the tire. What tho' the coal conies tumbling down. And one side all goes out; She says a man cau't poke a fire, She knows what she's about. And so she pokes anil jabs away, While I can but admire The warlike picture she presents While poking at the fire. I often wish to move away Upon a better street. Where Peggy could attain the set She always yearned to cieet. But one thing ever holds rue back From promenading higher; Poor Peg would find gas ranges there. And couldn't poke the fire. New York News. To Prognosticate Storms. By means of a delicate lust.ument called the ceraunograph, Kev. Jreder Ick I Odersbach, professor of chemis try In St Ignatius' College, In Cleve land, Ohio, is able to foretell many hours the numerous summer storms which come up, often on bright, warm, clear days, with startling rapidity, and with dire results to the small craft along the sea coast and on Inland waters. The action of the ceraunograph is simple and easily understood by any one acquainted with an ordinary tele graph system with relay. The Initial action precedes the adveut of the storm from one to thirty-six hour.

Certain French astronomer have re cently come to the conclusion that the solidification of the moon exteuda from the surface to the center, and not, as the American scientists think, from he center to the periphery. This view would modify various existing the ories. Their conclusion Is drawn from tbe examination of photographs exe- uted at tbe observatory for reprodut.. tlon In the new lunar atlas. The British postofflce ha entered Into an agreemeut with the Marconi company whereby messages are now received at auy telegraph office In the ulted Kingdom for transmission from the wireless coast statloua to ship at ea fitted out with the Mar coni apparatus. The cost Is sixpence a word, but no message consisting of less tliau twelve words Is accepted, making tbe minimum cost for a mes sage tis. txl.

Th valve consist of a number of stnitl slot, covered with a fine comb, not unlike a mouth organ, and tbe vibra tion of thl comb produces the sound. On a calm, windless day It Is esti mated that, with a high pressure, the record could be distinctly beard three miles away. The ability of some of the most mi nute of the earth's Inhabitants to pro duce striking changes on the face of the land, which Darwin showed wss characteristic of earth worms, has re cently been appealed to In attempting to account for tbe curious natural mounds seen In Louisiana, Arkansas aud Texas. Tbe creatures to whose agency these mounds are provisionally ascribed are white ants, or termite, supposed to have abounded In tbe south central United States at some former period, when a warmer aud molster climate prevailed there. In Cuba, tbe atta, or leaf-cutting ants, at present build mounds ten or twelve feet high, and In western Texas their mounds are sometimes forty or fifty feee In diameter, although only oue or two feet In height The ant theory Is regarded by Mr. A. 8. V eaten as, upon the whole, preferable to the sugges tions which have been made that th mounds In question were formed either by springs and gns vents, or by the action of the wind. ROOSEVELT CUT8 LOOSE. Hu Tiant of II la Li fa In Reunion with Cow bora. Befor dinner the President held a reception, standing out under one of the big trees that line the gravel walk. says tbe San Antonio correspondent of tbe New York World. The rongh rid er came up one by oue. Tbe Prel dent called most of them by their first name. Occasionally he called a "Bill" "Jim" or thought "Hank" wa "Tom," but usually he knew them be fore they were presented to him by Lieutenant Fortescue, who stood be side him. 'Hello, "Ben" " be shouted, aa "Ben" Daniels sidled up. "If you hadn't been here I never would have forgiven you. 'Colonel," aald George McCabe of Arizona, "do you remember when I stole that me of green corn for you?" 'Do I remember it!' exploded the President, slapping McCabe on the back. "Why, George, that waa the best tnes of green corn 1 ever had." 'I guess you don't remember me, do you?" asked Henry Bardshaar, of Pre cott, bashfully. "Why, sure!" exclaimed the Presi dent. "It's Henry, Isn't It?" Then he turned to those around him and said: "Henry stole for me. He stole provisions from the quartermas ter and one night be stole a poncho and a Spanish blanket. Say, Henry, we didn't sleep that night for It rain ed, but we'd have been much colder If we hadn't bad tbe blanket and the poncho." Several of the troopers had been waiting for a chance to make a re quest. "Colonel," said one, "we ve got some of our women folk here. Can we pre sent them?" "Present them? Well, I should say you can. Hring tnem up. The ladies were brought forward a tittering, embarrassed bunch. There were wive, daughters, mothers and sweethea rt. "Ladlea." said tbe President, after t be bad shaken hands with all or them, "you are the only ones I put be fore my Uougb Ulders." . Then he turned to the tickled men. "Boys," he continued, "I congratu late yon on your good taste in select ing your wives and other female rela tives. I certainly am proud of you." Meanwhile Henry Bardshaar had been standing around, first on on foot and then on the other. The President' eye fell on him. "By Godfrey, Henry," he said, aa he wrung the trooper' hand again, "I am glad you are here. You see." be ex plained, "Henry wa my orderly tor a Mm, and vry tints I was m tns Brine Un h. was there.

There wer a pot roat of beef, corn, pea, potatoes, bread and butter and coffee. Th .'resident fell to with an appe tite that apparently wss voracious. He had two helping of beef, and at o much bread and butter that Secretary Loeb was obliged to replenish the plate three time. There are finicky people, not to say. pernickety, who think the word "bully" la vulgar. He said he was "bully" when a rough rider asked him how be felt, how he liked hie reception, what he thought of the city, the State, the country or the universe. Kverythlng was "bully," and so was he, lie laughed like a schoolboy ou vacation. He let down In every way. The sen trie around the fence were deaf to the pleadings of the crowd who wanted to get In, and the President, as he said himself, "played hookey" from being President for three hours, and had the time of hla life. OUR MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. Health of Oar PoUliera In War Trusted Too Much to (.'native or Politic. In oideu time It was thought cheap tr to obtain a new toUllcr than to euro a sick or wounded oue. The whole Idea of life mtvlng In conjunction with such a pre-eminently llfe-destroyliu thing aa war Is modern, and. Indeed, almost anomalous. Hut a progressing world demands that reckless and use less sacrifice ot lire hull stop, and at last military coiuinaudera, and even appropriation voters, are beginning t. appreciate the Importance of keepliu soldier In tit condition to fight At least, the Japanese appreciate this. Whether Americans do Is exceedingly doubtful. Tbe former provide a large sanitation corps: make each man In It, from chief surgeon to stretcher-bearer, an export In his line; and then supple ment this with a mass of equally trained reserves. Tbe I'nlted States has the nucleus of a medical depart ment. It is true, but from the begin ning of tbe Spanish war to the present time it hae been lamentably deficient In numbers. We trust to chauce or politic for the health of our soldiers In war. but In lH'.W the civilian doctors suddenly transformed by official ap pointment Into military expert falle.1 to recognise camp typold until It had spread like wildfire. In the Japanese snnv there Is no place for either chauce or politics. It expert are not made by flat, and they can recognise camp disease. lu 100! our army waa reorganized and officered on a basis of 1M men, yet the medical department was rovlc only lsrge enough to care for 45,u. Consequently It has In-en necessary In peace to employ hundred of clvllltu doctors to meet the army's needs. If the Putted States Congresa has not ap predated the potential horrors of such a situation, how can It be exacted to go further and provide a reserve per sonnel of trained military sanitarians and administrator? In one respect we have this year taken a step forward. Heretofore we have been w.thout any official perma nent aid aodety. Now an effective and comprehensive lied Crosa ;vlety I be ing organised, aud a large and active membership Is hoped for. The guiding opinion that money Is worth more than lives la unfortunate, ly found also In naval mntters. In our navy the nursing Is done by enlisted men, and the surgeon general nas re peatedly appealed for authority to em ploy a eorp of trained women nursea to take charge of the work In ahore uospltals and help prepare the men for their dutle a nurse on h!ptard. But all In vain. Congr,n will not even consider the matter. In this re aped the army I fortunately better off than the navy, for Its nurse conn of trained women Is now firmly and permanently established.- -Century. INDIAN THEATMEN X Or' SICK. tluparatltloua Cereanoajr that la Often Laat Hranrt. The trial In the federal court of IouIs Brown, charged wltb the mur der of Walter Itlchardson and Moan Pettlgrew, brought to light an Indian superstition that was new to many people. Heveral year ago, when the famous Holomon Hotem witch killing case was tried In the same court, there was considerable evidence to show the belief of the Indian in wltdeTaft, and th testimony In tbe Brown case re veals an equally weird story. One of tbe wltnes.se tcHtifled thai the homicide for which Itrowu was tried occurred at a "pacliofsba." In answer to Inquiries as to the meaning of the word it was explained that a pacliofsba Is a feast and a part of the Incantation and superstitious cere mony conducted over the aick by the lower class of Ignorant Indians. When a man Is thought to be sick enough to require the services of a doctor he Is put Into a hut, and for three day no one except the doctor see him. Tbe docfir goea Into the wood and gathers herbs, from which he prepare a potion for tbe sick man and then keeps a lonely vigil wllh him At the end of the third day. If the pa tlent la not Improved, the order Is given to prepare a pachofaha. Cor.i and meat, either beef, pork or gnino, are put In a large kettle and stewed until the corn Is soft. All the relatives of the sick man are entitled to attend, aud they gather around the kettle for the feast. The sick man Is brought out and served first. He Is fed a much as hi stou: ach can hold, and the other then turn In and devour the remainder of the stew, When thl Is concluded a bon fire 1 built and lighted, tbe crowd cir cles around and dance to the time of a weird chant. After this, If the sick man doe not show sign of getting better, nothing more is done for hltn, and he dies or get well ty act of Providence. Oklahoma Times-Journal.
