MAN'S IMTOTEHCgrX It la Mad atrfktaarlr Maalfee Wkta a Bartaqaaka Caaaaa. A traveler gives this thrilling accounj of an earthquake in tba far east: The om occasion I saw a panic was In Calcutta In June. 189T. It was a Saturday evening about 5 o'clock. It waa pantlngly bot, and I was one of a party of pajama clad men sitting on the roof of a high house having tea. "We were In the midst of a merry chatter when the whole building began to tremble. We were Instantly hushed and looking at one another with blank faces until a feeling of terror took pos session of us, aud somebody shouted, 'My God, an earthquake!" ' "We stampeded. There were three flights of stairs to go down, and of course the fattest and slowest man was In front and blocked the way. The walls were cracking and yawning; the plaster was falling in chunks. "We were all barefooted, but that didn't matter. In front of the bouse was the meldan, the great open space in Calcutta. We ran there. A great part of the adjoining house came down with a roar. The whole front of a news paper office crashed Into the street The top of the cathedral spire came off and fell through the roof into the chancel. "Horses were stricken with madness and were careering furiously beyond all control. The natives were shriek ing. Europeans, blanch cheeked, tore from their houses, and many of the wo men fainted. "The thing I will never forget was what followed. There was the crunch of ripped walls, and the whole earth was henring and trembling very much like a ship that has banged against a pier and taken time to recover. The awful sensation was the feeling of im potence. "The earthquake lasted only five minutes, though at the time it seemed like hours. Men could only stand on the heaving, seasick ground absolutely helpless, unable to speak, but staring Into each other's white countenance waiting for the earth to yawn. That was the terrible thing; crowds of folk reduced to mute horror, helpless, Just standing with big, wide open, affright ed eyes, and the brain cramped In con templation of what might happen next moment" Exchange. FRUITS AND FLOWERS; The peach blossoms before the leaves appear. The apple, pear and cherry put out their leaves before blossoming. It takes a year or two for raspberries to reach their best bearing condition. Plants wanted especially for flower ing should never be allowed to produce seed. To prevent this cut off all the old flowers as soon as they wither. Repotting plants becomes necessary at intervals from two considerations. The plant uses up the available fertility In the soil and 1113 the pot with roots. In repotting plants It la well to shake off whatever earth can be separated without breaking and Injuring the roots. Then water and shade for a few days. Tba yaw tree, almost destitute of branches er bark, grows in the Cauca sus te a height of from 60 to 60 feet and a diameter of a little over 2 feet It kt aenstdere4 superior to mahogany and is almost Indestructible except by Ore. reeretaMe Aelda. Tba aatiscorbutle properties of cer tain vegetables and fruits are In some reees ef fully equal value to their nu tritive qualities, and the amount of potash salts and mild vegetable salts thus contributed to the blood Is well understood by physicians. Tba rhu barb stalk Is noted In this respect for the malic acid and blnoxalate of pot ash which It contains. The acidity of tne lemon, orange and other (pedes of the genus citrus Is caused by the abun dance of citric add In their juices; that of the cherry, plum, peach, pear and apple from the malic add In their pulp; that of gooseberries and currants red, black and white from a mixture of malic and citric adds; that of grapes from a mixture of malic and tartaric adds; that of the mango from citric add and a very fugitive essential oil; that of the tamarind from a mixture of citric, malic and tartaric adds. A Water Meter Joke. Water companies often prove that they have no conscience. The following Instance shows that they are equally lacking In a sense of humor. A public body, notidng a large increase In their water bill, suggested to the company that perhaps the meter might be ort of order. In reply they were Informed that the meter had been tested and was found to register quite correctly and that directions would at once be given to replace it with another. Evi dently an accurate meter does not meet the views, of a water company. Lon don Chronicle. Thanaba and Mechanics. Two men got Into an argument the other day over the expansion of steam In a cylinder. "Why," said one, "you don't know anything about machinery and the prlndplea of mechanics. Your thumbs are not shaped right" He then went on to explain that a man with long, Uln thumbs did not have a mechanical turn, while those with thick thumbs, broad at' the ends, were natural born machinists. "I never be lieved In physiognomy," he said, "but I do believe In thumbs." A Limit to Scorn. 1 have the profoundest contempt for money," said the Impractical person. "That" replied the friend, "Is a very nonsensical assertion. Of course you are entitled to your own economic the ories. But you are just as much an noyed as anybody else If you accept a counterfeit half dollar." Washington Star. f Advice Vreaa fail I. Of the distinguished authors of Per la none perhaps haa enjoyed a wldm popularity than Sudl, bo lived In th thirteenth century. He was a great traveler and a close observer, and bb anecdotes and abort stories are da scribed aa being founded on his own experiences and observations. In 'Tor elan Toetry For English Keadera" Mr . Robinson quotes the following from Sadl's writings: A pupil said to his Instructor, "What em I to do, for people Incommode nit With the frequency of their visits tt such a degree that thrlr conversation produces a great distraction of my vol uable timet" The teacher replied: "To every onr who Is poor lend and from every one who Is rich borrow. They will not com about you again." Another example embodies excellent advice: A silly fellow, having a pain In his eyes, went to a farrier and asked him for a remedy. The farrier applied to bis eyes something which he would have given to an animal, and It blind ed him, upon which they made an ap peal to the magistrate. The magistrate said: "This la no case for damages. It is plain that this fellow Is an ass or be would not have gone to a farrier." No man of enlightened understanding will commit weighty matters to one of mean abilities. A Poser For Con kilns;. When Roscoe Conkllng first began the practice of law in New York, he lost a most Important murder case on which he had worked very hard not only for the fee, which he needed bad ly, but for a reputation which he had to make. Despite his efforts his client was hanged. Later, when he present ed his bill to the man's family, they re fused to pay it on the ground that It waa excessive. He took the bill to Charlea O'Conor, the great criminal lawyer, asking him to pass Judgment as to the equity of his charges. O'Con or scanned the account very closely and then, turning to Conkllng, very gravely remarked, "Well, Conkllng, taking into consideration the enormous amount ol energy and time you have devoted tc this case, the charges are reasonable, but see here, Conkllng, don't you think tho man could have been banged foi less money that that?" The Ptarmigan' Tall. One of the most entertaining chapters In natural history Is that which relates to the many curious means that birds and other animals possess of deceiving the eyes of their enemies. Mr. E. San dys, in writing of upland game birds, calls attention to a remarkable and beautiful Instance. When the ptar migan puts on its winter dress, it has a black tall. One might suppose that this would attract attention to the bird crouching on the snow, but In fact it serves for concealment .Every projec tion on a snowfleld casts a dark shad ow and that is what the tail of the motionless ptarmigan looks like, the body of the bird resembling a mere hump on the white background, British MsMin Treaaarea. Among the many costly treasures to be .found In the British museum is the "Mains Psalter." the second book known to have been printed that bears a date and which la valued at 5,000. The books printed by Caxton represent to the museum a fortune in themselves, while the Elgin marbles represent an enormous value only to be estimated In millions. The Rosetta stone might fetch anything from 100,000 to 150, 000.000, and the Nineveh bulla with human heads would be cheap at 50, 000. The Cblqottoua Union.

Mrs. De Bride waa entertaining call ers. After they left she remarked to her husband: "I hope they didn't see my walking shoes lying there. They would think me very untidy If they did." "Oh, If they iw them they probably thought they were mine," answered her husband In a consoling tone. And she hasn't spoken to him since. The Speaker. Many years ago an Allen county man announced himself as a candidate for the legislature. "But you can't make a speech," ob jected a friend.
