Woodchopping at a 8port
In Tasmania Is to be found a nntlonnl
pastime that Ik Hpeclnl and particular
to that state alone the Bport of wood
chopplng. It mij-s much for the grit
and vigor of TosmnnlniiH that this
really hitIouh and arduous work should
be regarded ns the finest sport- At
Ilolmrt anil l-nunccston they have
their turf meetings, their cricket, foot
ball, golf, cycling, and so forth, bu. to
a w-oodcliopplng contest people will
flock from far and near men, vomen
and children and watch the nx wlekl
crs hewing away at huge bksks of
timber ns If life mid reputation de
pended upon the Issue. Thud, thud,
thud, go the axes, and the splinters fly
lu all directions, the Judges cn-'mly sit
ting near, taking notes of tho strokes,
the spectators cheering the compet
itors from time to time as friiiticallj
as If l hoy were race horses. To be a
woodclioppliig champion means some
thing to a man in Tasmania. Dundee
Advertiser-
Look Protpvrcus or Pay In Advance.
"While there Is a good deal of the
American spirit prevailing In Sydney
and Melbourne, they do things there In
a pecullur wuy," said a traveling man
"11 is bard to get used to them.
They bave excellent restaurant
there, but they run on a peculiar plan.
A man goes in and sits down at a table,
and a wulter, generally a woman
bands liiin the hill of fare. He makes
ont his order on a slip, and before be
It waited on the waiter goes to the
cashier and bus a little private talk
with biio. The cashier looks over at
the customer, and If he appears to be
good for the bill he is served; other-
-Rise he Is asked to pay In advance.
The menls nre good and cheap. The
same careful scrutiny Is made when a
fellow registers at a hotel. Good looks
will go further than any amount of
baggage." Omaha Uee.
-Clear Waata.
"Tie has a -quick temper, you know,
was the excuse given by a friend for
a boy's rmle act.
Is lie quick at bis lessons?" was the
question.
"No." was the reply.
"Is lie quick nt sports?" the ques
tioner went on.
Again the answer was "No."
"Is he quick lu obedience?"
"No."
"Well." said the questioner, with a
twinkle in his ye, "If he has so little
quickness he'd better use It where It
will do him nome good. It's clear
waste to put It on bis temper."
The Town of Bushire.
Residents of n miserable seaport on
the Terslnn gulf called their town Bu
shire (Ittwsheer). It has narrow, dirty
111 paved streets. The city Is visited
by earthquakes nnd simooms and stints
Its children of wholesome air and fresh
water. It appears, however, to have
enjoyed high repute among the ancient
Klamltes, who have left burled about
under moldorlng heaps bricks with
cuneiform Inscriptions. In summer the
citizens of Hushlre live lu a heat that
is almost unbearable.
Her Sorrow.
"r-pnpa," sobbed small Smile, "ni-my
canary Is d-dead;"
"Never mind, dear." replied her
father; "I'll buy you another one."
"(Ill, I'm culm now," rejoined Sadie,
"but when I flrst saw the poor little
thing I cried like a child." Hxclumge.
After tho Race.
"So your horse was distanced, was
be?"
"Yes."
Did you have anything on him?"
I thought I had u Jockey on him,
hut It seems I didn't."

ANTHRACITES' AUDITOR
PRESENTED WIIH FRUIT
General Auditor of the Lacakawana
Railroad Passes Through Med
ford is Greeted at Train
G. E. Hustis, one of the big rail- '
road men of the country, general and-
itor of the Delaware, Lackawanna
& Western Wailroad, with headquar-
ters in New York City, with his fnm- j
ily, passed through Medford Sundnyj
and stepped from his private car to
shake hands with his former assist
ant, W. F. Turner, of the Pacific & !
Eastern railway, and to wish him all
kinds of good luck In his new under- I
taking. Mr. Turner came to the Pucif- j
ic. & Eusfeni from the "Cleanly Road
of Anthracite," the richest railroad
in the United tSatcs, where he learned
his business under Mr. Hustis.
Mr. Hustis is conceded by railroad
men of the United Slates one of the
leading authorities on railroad ac
counting. He and his family are
making a tour of the west. They vis
ited the fair nt Seattle, Vancouver
and will stop at Mount Shasta, the
Yosemite nnd other points of inter
est.
Mr. Turner, who has already bc
ome a booster of Medford, presented
Mr. Hustis with a basket of the choic
est fruits from the orchards along the
Pacific & Eastern and from the fa
mous Rogue river valley. Mr. Hustis
was much delighted with the fruit and
regretted that lack of time prevented
and extended visit here.
Arthur Conklin. editor of the Pa
ifie Outlook of Grants Pass, an old
friend of Mr. Hustis, acoempanii'd
him south.
Gibbon's Great Hiitory of Rome.
Although the Idea was conceived
when Gibbon was twenty-seveD, be
was thirty-one before be set himself
seriously at work to study bis mate
rial. At thirty-six be began the com
position, and be was thirty-nine when.
In February, 1770. the first quarto vol
ume was published. The history hud
an iniuicdiute success. "Xly book." he
wrote, "was on every table; the his
torian was crowned by the taste or
fashion ot the day." The first edition
was exhausted In a few days, a second
was printed 1770. and next year a
third. The second and third volumes,
which ended the history of the west
ern empire, were published Id 1781.
aud seven years later the three vol
umes devoted to the eustern empire
saw the light. The last sentence of
the work, written In the summer bouse
at Lausanne, is: "It was among the
ruins of the capitol that 1 first con
ceived the idea of a work which has
amused and exercised nearly twenty
years of inv life, and which, however
Inadequate to tuy own wishes.. I finally
deliver to the curiosity and candor ot j
the public." Scrlbner's Magazine.
Useful Diversions.
There is au affection in every em
ployment, aud it gives tue spirit ener
gy aud keeps the mind iuteut upon its
work or study. This. If It be not re
laxed, becomes dull, and its earnest
ness flags as salt that bus lost its
savor, so tbnt it has no pungency or
relish; or ns a bended bow, which, un
less It be unbent, loses the power that
It derives from Its elasticity, .lust so
the mind, kept from day to day in the
same ideas, without variety. So the
eyes, wheu they look only at one ob
ject or continually upon one color.
For, to look continually at a thing
which Is black, or continually at red
or at white, destroys the sight. Thus
if one looks continually at the snow
the slghl Is destroyed, but it Is en
livened if he looks in succession or nt
the same time noon many colors.
Every -form delights by its varieties
as a garland of roses of different colors
arranged In. beautiful order. Ilence It
19 that the rainbow Is more charming
than the light Itself. Emanuel Swe
denborg. 'The King of Rome.
To teach his son obedience to nurs
ery rules Napoleon gave strict orders
that lie never be admitted to his apart
ments if be came thither aloue: One
morning the little king of Koine came
trotting along the corridor and, look
ing up at the tn II officer on guard, im
periously ordered: "Open the door for
me. I want to sec pupa."
The ollloer. true to his instructions,
answered gently, but firmly. "Sire, I
cannot open the door to your maj
esty." "Why not?" demanded the little
autocrat. "1 am the little king."
At tile gentle reminder, "Hut your
majesty Is all alone." the goldeu hair
ed cherub seemed somewhat non
plused, hut. his governess appearing a
moment later, lie seized her hand and,
thus protected, stamped his tiny foot
and cried: "Open the door! The king
wishes it!"
This time, all being In order, the tall
otlk'cr flung tlio door wide open, sol
emnly aunomicing, "The king of
Rome."
