The Snub It Gave a British Consul In Cuba Soma Years Age- ' The haphazard character of Spanish law la well illustrated by the following case: Some years ago a young unguso sailor, accoinpauled by an American and an Irish sailor, went oo shore at Havana. When returning to their ships ' they were attacked by China men. The American struck one of tbe Chinamen on the head with a stick, and the man died. The Spanish au thorities did not trouble to discrimi nate, bat sentenced the three men to two years' Imprisonment . . The Brltlsb consul, being unaccus tomed to Spanish ways, took up the case of the Englishman very strongly. The authorities thereupon, possibly to teach him a lesson, tried the men over again and gave them twenty yearn each. The Englishman after three years in a Cuban prison, during which time bis companions died of yellow fever, was transferred to Ceuta to serve the re mainder of his time. After some years he and a fellow prisoner, a Spaniard, escaped, but they were recaptured. The food provided In the convict prison of Ceuta consists of two meals a day of garbauzos chick peas occasionally flavored with a tiny bit of salt pork, a remarkably healthy If not appetizing diet, and the Englishman came out of prison in particularly good health. Aft er his twenty years' unjust imprison ment he married a Spanish woman. 3- 0 $ ooooooocoooo $1 g Advertising I oooooodooooo o o lassifiedl FOR KENT Furnished flat for house keeping.

Address Observer. 7-1 to 8-1 T If the Dugeng Had Long Hair It '.' Would Make a Heal Sea Woman. The old stories' about mermaids do not seem so Improbable after nil when one looks nt a full sized dugong. The only thing it lucks to make It a real sea woman Is long hair. .-', This enormous tisb has dippers In- Btead of, tins uud rudimentary arms. The flippers end In four distinct fingers and are startlngly like the human hand. The shoulders of thin weird marine creature slope In to a short but perfectly denned neck, on which Is set a round head. The eyes are like a hu . man being's in shape and expression. but. very much larger. They ore set far apart on each Hide of the bead and have a brown Iris swimming In a white ball, but are lidlesu. The dugong has no nose, but the forehead Is broad and well developed, and while the mouth Is "fishy" in shape there Is a distinct under Up. The dugong is twice the height of a tall man when tt Is full grown, and a mother dugong moving about through the water holds her baby tenderly In her "arms" pressed to her breast, Just as a human mother does. Glimpses of this strange Inhabitant of the sea no doubt gave rise to the old time belief in mermaids, The dugong Is rapidly becoming extinct, but still can be found In fairly targe numbers in the Indlnn ocpuo.

Robert U. M. Daw barn. M. D., tells why It Is considered best not to keep flowers or growing plants In a sickroom at night Flowers give off moisture taken np from the soil; hence air becomes somewhat humid if many particularly growing plants are kept in the room. Flowers having a meth od of breathing, they use up the oxy gen as human beings do and In ex change give off cirbonlo dioxide as waste matter. , Tbe action ' of sunlight noon the terns, leaves and all green part of flowers is to store carbonic dioxide within the plants and release oxygen. Thai In daylight there Is fair bal ance between the carbonic dioxide and the oxygen glten and taken, leaving either good nor ill-results. Bat dur ing the entire night tbe plant contin ues to breathe, and until tbe return of daylight tbe oxygen Is used just like an additional person breathing tn the room, thus leaving less oxygen for tbe use of the. Invalid. Therefore the standing order to remove all plants and flowers at night In based upon the facts of plant physiology and Is right Som.what Unfortunata.
