WINTE ON THE CANAL.
How the Man . Passu Their: Tiraa
During the Season.
A. Mode of Living That Has Bat Few
Attraction Whale L1t
Spent Aboard the Cheer
less Boats.
How do canal men spend the -winter?
is a question many people are prompted
to ask at this time when the snow is
beginning to fly and the boats are hur
rying' to their various destinations.
People are interested in canal boatmen
and the. hardy lives they live because
they are out of the usual run and their
slow method of doing1 business savors
of the past, for canal boats moved just
as rapidly many years ago as they do
now. Then the canal man is becoming;
like the stage driver, scarcer each year,
and there is a tinge; of the romantic
about his mode of living1. Im the sum
mer and during4 the open season the ro
mance is never seen, for it's all hard
work then-, and even in its more restful
features canal ing- d like other occupa
tions something of a grind.
As for the time of rest, a canal man.
the other morning related- his ex
perience in that line: He was past 50
and ever since boyhood had followed
the life of a canaler. In his younger
days he may have given promise of a
Garfield, as even last night his first
question, was for some good reading for
his wife during the winter. He ex
plained - that something entertaining:
would do, as 'his wife had so much leis
ure time during the long winter nights
while he and. tihe- boys were playing
poker.
"I'm making a heavy, pull to get to
Troy before the water runs out, and I
guess I will make it all right," said. he.
Yes, I waa stuck one time, but a boat
man never .gets stuck twice. It was 13
years ago. We had, a week to make
Troy and were taking it easy when we
were froze- hard and fast at the Four
Mile grocery just below here. Those
were the days we had cold: weather, and
we didnt float again until the spring.
We hadn't l heavy cargo, so it didn't
matter much. Tes, there's some of
them ties up along the route, but most
of them go to Troy or Buffalo or down
to New York. They stay there all win
ter, knocking about the -harbor, the
boys going to dances and the old folks
staying .at 'home.- Work d.urin'g the
winter? Well, I never have, but some
of tham do, but for the most part the
boys rest.
"You see, in the -winter the. cabin.of
a boat is The snuggest place on. earth.
It's 18 by 14 feet-, and you- live, eat, ami
sleep in there. Down- in the ditch the
wind don't catch you and the boat is
airtight with two feet of dead air be
tween the aides and the cabin to keep
out cold. It's made of match boards
inside and out and the roof is four
inches thick so that a little stove makes
the cabin warm.
"Me and my wife have bee a on, the
canal since we-were boys and girls and
I haven't seen- any of the country ex
cept that to be seen from the boat on
its way from Buffalo to New York f or
30 years. We winter at Troy. As soon
as we get there we take our horses and
drive them to a place where with- about
200 others they are collected by a farm
er and- taken to winter quarters. There
are farmers all along1 the route that
winter horses. Ours go to Fort Ed
ward, about 28 miles north, of Troy,
where they are turned loose in the
fields. Kirkland is our man's name,
and he winters from 300 to 350. There
are sheds and: hay and strawstacks in
the fields and the- horses eat hay all
winter and sleep on dean straw in- the
sheds at night. About March 1 they be
gim to feed them grain, three quarts a
day, and keep it up until the season
opens. That is, we pay 90 cents a head
every week for thatv but I don't know
as they get it, .because I don't stay there
to see.
"Now, young- fellow, when you ask
if a man can live and keep his family
all winter, on what iie makes in- sum
mer, you must know that he can't now
adays if he goes to many dances or gets
many drunks.: We manage to serape
along on bacon and pancakes for break
fast, meat three times a week for din
ner, a chicken on Sunday now and then,
and at supper w generally eat what's
left. I've never saved anything1, but I
would have if the trade kept up as it
was 30 years ago. . Why,, in '78 I think,
it was, I hauled wheat fro mi Buffalo to
New York, at 26 cents a bushel for
freight. ; That was a 'living,' I tell you.
If the state- instead1 of deepening the
ditch had. built free, elevators at Buf
falo so we wouldn't have to pay the
railroads- for the' use of theirs it would
have done us some good, but there ain't
a living now as there- used to be."

THE TINIEST OF WATCHES.
Most Minute Timepiece Now In Ei
' fstence
The smallest watch in the world is
at present on exhibition in a show win
dow in Berlin. It is the latest triumph
in the art of watchmaking the art that
ha made such ' wonderful progress
within the last decade.
The lilliputian timepiece was made in
Geneva. Following are given some of
the tiny dimensions :
The diameter of the little watch is less
than half an inch. The exact measure
ment is 10 millimeters, or .4137 inch.
Its thickness is 3 millimeters, or .1183
inch, being but little more than a tenth
of an inch.
The length of the minute hand is
2 4-10 millimeters, or .09456 inch. That
of the hour hand is 1 3-10 millimeters,
or .05122 inch.
The entire works of the tiny watch
comprise 95 individual pieces, and ta
exact weight is 14.3499 grains, or, ac
cording to the metric system, 93 centi
grammes less than a single gram!
After having been wound up with the
diminutive key the watch will run for
28 hours. The mainspring when run
down has a circumference of .13396
inch. Its weight is 38 milligrammes, or
.5902 grain.
The weight of the four main wheels,
with their springs, is 42 milligrammes.
1 or .6468 grain. There are 13 cogs on
the little cylinder wheel, which has a
circumference of 2 millimeters, or .0783
inch, and weighs .75 milligramme, or
. .01155 grain.
j The balance has a circumference of
' 3.57 millimeters, or .140658 inch. In
one hour it completes 18.152 revolutions,
traveling a distance of 9,842 feet 6
inches.
The most delicate tools and measur
ing instruments were made specially
for the construction of this lilliputian
j watch.. The preliminary work in the
I making of the timepiece was very ex
pensive, and the selling price of the
! watch is comparatively low, being $1,-

AN ENORMOUS SAPPHIRE.
Brlfrbt Gem from Ceylon Now In Lom
don- Weir.hrt C3S Karats.
The London Times tells of a Ceylon
sapphire in that city," the property of
Maj.. Gen. Bobloy, which is not less re
markable for its size than for its trans
lucency and the biilliance of the op
tical effects it can show. The weight
of the gem is GS karats and it is of a
dark, milky blue color, perfectly trans
parent and flawless.
Large sapphires have been known, but
they have usually, if not always, been
dull and muddy, instead of having the
clear, translucent color of this speci
men. But in addition it possesses a
property occasionally found in slightly
cloudy or milky Ceylon sapphires and
sometimes in other gems, too which
greatly enhances its value in the eyes
of believers in the occult powers of
precious stones to confer health and
good fortune on their wearers. It is a
star sapphire, or asteria. That is, be
ing cut en cabochon, it, displays a beau
tiful opalescent star, dividing its six
rays at the apex, which changes its po
sition according to the movement of the
source of light by which it is viewed.
By employing two or three sources of
light, two or three of these stars can.be
simultaneously seen in the gem.
By further cutting it is said that the
beauty of this stone could be still more
increased, but, of course, at the expense
of its size.
SPILLED HER LUNCH.
Sorry Accident to a Stylish. Tdung
Woman In a Street Car.
The passengers on an early-morning
train connecting with this city were
treated to a thoroughly enjoyable scene
the other morning, says the Brooklyn
Enterprise. At one of the small sta
tions a young lady boarded: the train
She was dressed ra-ther stylishly, but
a veil covered a rather plain face. She
switched down the aisle like a queen.
She baraly deigned to glance at the
other passengers in the car and when
she did her nose rose pereeptibly at the
tip in a manner that spread, the impres
sion of contempt.
She carried a Boston bag- and' the air
of a millionaire. There was but one
seat vacant. This- was beside a good
looking, nicely dressed young man who
was reading a paper.
When she came to this seat she
flopped down heavily and tossed her
bag to the seat between herself and the
young- man.. Two seconds . later the
young man leaped from his seat and
a string of earnest words of doubtful
origin-fell from his lips like vipers from
the lips of the young woman in the
fable.
The startled passengers looked to see
what had caused this outburst. They
saw and then they, laughed. The nice
looking Boston- bag contained an ordi
nary, every-day working. girF lunch.
One- of its features was a jar of cof
fee, which had. broken in the descent
nnd flowed freely over the young man's
new fall coat and trousers.
He went into the smoking car, swear
ing profusely. She murmured a weak
apology and spent her time in mopping
up the seat.
Monkeys In Africa.
"Africa's monkeys are giving out. In
the neighborhood cf the-Gcld Coast they
have. been, exterminated, and last year
the -colony could collect only 67,660
monkey skins,, whereas in 1894, 168,405
skins, valued at $205,000 were exported.
SKEAT CANNON MAKEBS,
fhe Krupps and Their Big Plant
at Essen.
CSnersjr and Knterprlae -Aafelev I7n
irpanei Success Faets About
the Enormom Estab
lishment. The city of Essen is located in, the
senter of a hilly valley, which abounds
in coal and iron ore, and the digging
for both and the melting of the ore and
casting the metal into ingots and roll
ing it into bars have been the occupa
tions of the inhabitants for centuries
past. Frederich Krupp, the founder of
the great works bearing his name, was
born in 1787, and when crucible cast
steel was first being introduced in
England, and its importation from
there into Germany had been made im
possible through the edict of ' Na
poleon called "the continental-speere,"
V. Krupp began to produce crucible
last steel, first in small quantities for
Sles, stamps, rolls for coins and shears,
out only slowly could he convince and
oersuade German manufacturers to use
ais cast steel, and after a life full of
lisappointments and hardships he died
n 1826, after a long and severe illness,
.eaving to his son Alfred little else than
the old homestead, which still stands
in the midst of the great works, and
the secret of his invention.
Alfred Krupp's energy and enterprise
soon conquered. His first success was
to be able to furnish cast steel of a
varying degree of hardness, thereby in
creasing its adaptability for many new
purposes. Next came the invention of
the weldless car wheel tires, which
were patented in 1853 in all countries
and furnished him capital for enlarg
ing his plant. In 1865 he interested
himself in coal mines, iron ore mines
and furnaces, which should lurnish the
material for his own works, and in
1S67 he began to reap the harvest from
his experiments inaugurated long since
with steel cannons, and the great
Franco-German war of 1370-71 proved
bevond doubt their superiority as
against the old bronze cannons. Since
then the success of these works and
their growth have been phenomenal,
and when Alfred Krupp closed the busy
and successful and philanthropic work
of his life in 1867 at Villa Huegel, his
princely home on the side hills of the
valley of the Ruhr, the city of Essen,
in recognition of his great work, erect
ed in his memory a Lsautiful monu
ment, on the most prominent square of
the city, and deputations from many
nations mourned at his grave.
Essen is a city of 96,000 inhabitants,
and over 20,000 of this population are
employed in the works of the able and
energetic son of Alfred Krupp Fred
rich Alfred. Over 1,200 acres of ground
are covered with buildings and ma
chinery. Many coal mines furnish fuel
for the works, over 400 iron ore mines
furnish the metal, and large iron ore
deposits in Spain, near Bilboa, have
been purchased in addition, and a spe
cial fleet of steamers has been built
which bring over 300,000 tons of this
Spanish iron ore from Spain to the
German coast and up the Rhine. Twen
ty furnaces at Duisburg and Neuwied-
on-the-Rhine are reducing this ore for
the Krupp works and are owned or
controlled by them.
The main street of Essen divides the
Krupp works into two parts, connected
overhead with innumerable mammoth
steam pipes and bridges, and parallel
with it, running east and west, the
tracks of the Rhenish railway pass the
works in the north, while in the south
the railroad leading from Dusseldorf to
Bremen, Hamburg and Berlin skirts the
mill. Innumerable tracks connect
these two main lines of railrdad, sur
rounding in an inextricable network
the buildings and crossing the street
leading to Muelheim below its level.
Powerful locomotives bring train loads
of raw material into the yards and leave
the works with valuable products.
finished and ready for shipment to all
parts of the globe. Miniature engines
and cars move about between the build
ings on narrow-gaurje tracks, bringing
material of smaller size from one build
ing to another until it is finished and
ready for the market. Tron Age.
TOLD HIS CLAM STORY.
Dow a Fanny Detroit- Man Won His
Case With tbe Jury. .
Marshall P. Wilder, the funny little
man, is charged with having with
malice" aforethought and evil intent
sprung a few of his tales on a jury and
thereby turned their verdict, in his di
rection, says the Detroit Journal.
A few weeks ago Marshall came to
town and in the circuit court sued Dr.
Hercules Sanche.on a promissory note
for $1,000. He won the case, and now
the counsel for the defense has applied
for a new trial on the ground that the
jury was improperly influenced.
The lawyer says that during a recess
Marshall went out into the hall and
told the jurymen a lot of funny stories,
including that one about the New Jer
sey clam digger who fed his family en
clams so long that their stomachs rose
and fell with the tide. That settled it,
the Sanche lawyer says, and the : lan
who laughs was- solid as a boarding
house biscuit with the jury.. They went
into court, he says, and chuckled out a
verdict in his favor.
The counsel for' the defense . says
Wilder's jokes would win a favorable
verdict- from a jury of pine stumps,
hence the application for a new trial.
BOOK BUYERS.
Errors Tbey Sometime! Bfakto AK
9 Quite Amus-lnav -
During the. recent book sale in this
city, says the Chicago Chronicle, there
were many calls for Henry x Eienkie-
wicz's "Quo Vadis. One girl appeared
with a card bearing this: "Qwadiz," by
Stinkwitz." Another reader asked for
Two Waders, by "Sinkers," while a
third demanded "That book by the man .
whose name ends in "itch."
"While the sale was going on a wom
an asked a cash girl:
"Can you. find 'David Copperfield?'
"I'll Bce, said the girl, and ..disap
peared. She presently returned and
said:
"No, mum. He don't work here no
more.
Another customer at the sale was a
woman who drove up in her carriage.
She explained to the clerk that she had
just moved into her own house.
"The library, she said, js one by
twentv and the shelves run around the
whole shootin match." She looked at
the stock of books and sweeping her
hand over a lot of shelving containing
about 1,500 volumes, she said: "Send
those books up."- As the assortment
contained broken sets, odd volumes,
duplicates and paper covered novels,
her "library" will be a motley collec
tion. WALKED 205,920 MILES.
Remarkable Record of a Postman
Who Has Just Retired. -
A Mr. Roberts, for 33 years a postman
of Pilling in the Fylde, North Lanca
shire, has just retired, reports the Lon
don Mail. For 22 years he walked from
Pilling to Fleetwood and back twice a
day, not to mention many perilous trips
in crossing the river Wyre during pe
riods of storm. A calculation of five
miles each way, four times a day (in
addition to his round at the village),
six days in the week, for 22 years, shows
that he walked 137,280 miles between
Tilling and Fleetwood in the fulfillment
of his duty. During this time he must
have crossed the river Wyre (a by no
means pleasant task in the winter time)
27,457 times. His duties were consid
erably lightened when 11 years ago the
government decided to bring the mails
to Pilling by another route. Though
this did away with crossing the river it
did not reduce the distance Postman
Roberts had to walk very much. In
cluding the village delivery, he must
in his 33 years of service have walked
no less than 205,920 miles.
DOGS AT KNIGHTS FEET.
Why tbe Symbol Is a Far-Reaehlna;
One.
I noticed in one of the newspapers
that flhe king of Siam, during- his "ju
bilee" visit to this country, went to
Westminster abbey and that, seeing
there the figure of some knight with
his dog at his feet, informed his suite
that in England "favorite dogs were
buried with their masters," says Good
Words."- It was a pity no one corrected
his majesty, for we may depend upon it
that our adherence to the abominable
custom so common in. less civilized
countries, perhaps in Siam itself of
putting to death the favorites of the
dead, will pass into Siamese history as a'
fact. The dog in question was- doubt
less a greyhound.
As being preeminently the knightly
dog it was privileged in life to a special
place behind its master's left hand at
table and, after death, in effigy, to a
place at its master's feet upon, the
tomb. Say Col. Hamilton. Smith:
"Hounds, shaped like the present, can
not be traced in the old Frankish and
Anglo-Saxon manuscripts; they are all
coursing greyhounds, and this char
acter is continued, witih but few excep
tions, as the emblem of fidelity or gen
tility, usually couched on monuments
at the feet of knights, to the last-period
of the recumbent figure." But thesym
bol is more far-reaching than this, for
the dog on the monuments of women
was the emblem of affectionate fidelity
to their husbands; on the monuments
of men of unquestioning faith in-Providence.
When Royalty Travels.
Many women were ' called "cranks"
for objecting to occupying berths 1
sleeping cars. However, a large num
ber of maladies are propagated by
means of hotel mattresses, etc. Old
Emperor William of Germany and the
late czar, as well as his father, -invariably
carried about with them on
J their journeys small, narrow iron camp
bedsteads, the mattresses and pillows
being thin and hard. Queen Victoria,
travels about with her own bedstead, a
peculiar, old-fashioned, wooden affair,
and her mattress gives a whole lot of
trouble, two domestics being assigned
to its care. Both Grand Duke Paul of
Russia and King Leopold of Belgium,
ind likewise Prince Albert of Prussia,
the regent of Brunswick, carry their
bedsteads and their bedding about with
them in consequence of their huge
stature. They require beds eight feet
tons'.

WENT TO JAIL" FOR LOVE.
Woman Takes All the Blame for a
Murder He Fluee Committed.
The supreme court of Mexico has
asked President Diaz to pardon Maria
MontesiU os, Who, some time ago, was
sentenced to 20 years, imprisonment
in Belenv jail for a murder she never
committed. The crime for which she is
suffering punishment, was the killing
of Pascaul Montafto, in a family quar
rel. Miss Montesillos lover, Piquinto
Torres, was the real murderer, but be
cause she loved- him Maria was willing
to take the penalty. She took all the
blame for the murder and during the
preliminary inquiry by the third crimi
nal judge, and afterward at the trial
by jury, stoutly maintained that she,
and she alone, was responsible for the
death of Monitafio, whom she had killed,
she said, to free herself from his con
stant courtship and dishonorable
propositions. Torres, therefore, got
off scot free, and. the woman, as the
murder" was considered- to have been
t omniilted under aggravated circum
stances, was sentenced to 20 years in
prison, a sentence which she cheerfully
r.ccepfed. But Torres, when he got
out, was unfaithful, and jealousy then
proved too much for Maria when she
learned of this. She presented the
jjeareft proof that she was innocent
and Torres guilty, and showed, letters
from liirrs to that effect. Her first at
tempt to secure relief was made before
the .superior tribunal and was unsuc
cessful, but the supreme court has just
set aside' that decision and asked Presi
dent Diaz to grant her freedom.
I
Long ago in 1863-64 there. was no
cable between Europe and America
Our trans-Atlantic news even during
the exciting episodes of the civil war
was always about a fortnight old.
The attempt to make a cable connection
had ended disastrously and in this
junction cf affairs was organized a gi
gantic euterprise, looking to the con
nection of the United States with Eu
rope via Klondike and Behring sea!
Most electricians acd telegraphic ex
perts had made up their minds. that 40
miles which was the distance across
the strait represented the longest a
submarine cable could be successfully
worked.
A company was formed, and what
was known in those days as Russian
Extension stock went off at a premium
of 60 per. cent. In 1865 the line be
tween New Westminster and the' Yukon
river was .surveyed, found to be prac
ticable and traversed completely the
present Klondike region.
The line was expected to be finished
in 1867. Even the tariff for messages
was fixed at 5 ($25) - per message
The receipts- were estimated to yield
about $9,000,000 per annum. The line
was actually constructed from New
Westminster along the present route
of the Canadian Pacific railway to Ash
croft, where it was continued north
toward Behring sea to Fort Stager,
300 or 400 miles beyond Quesnelle. This
line is at this present moment in op
eration in a portion of the Cariboo coun
try. Then, in the midst of the whole busi
ness, after three years of hard work,
came like a thunderclap the news that
th Atlantic cable was a success. Three
million dollars had been expended; yet
the next day Russian Extension' stock
was not worth the printer's ink on its'
surface.
Some day who knows? this Russo
American via Klondike cable scheme
may be revived. In .view of the com
mercial growth of China and Janan (to
say nothing of eastern Russia), why
should it not be now? London Mail.
TELEGRAPHING TO KLONDIKE.
The- Lines Were Laid There About
Thirty Years Aaro.
When one considers the great primal
ifact.fhat Klondike is not in American
territory one can understand why cer
tain Americans are doing their best to
discredit this mighty gold-bearing dis
trict in the eyes of the world. But while
;the discussion is going on the Canadian
government has lost no time in consid
ering the project of telegraphic com
munication with Klondike. This in
quiry brings out a strange factstrange
in that everybody seems to have forgot
tcr all about it that there wae once a
telegraph line to Klondike and far be
yond. Mr. C. R. Hosmer, the indefatii
gable manager of the C. P. R. telegraph
tvstem. does well to call it a romance.
A Ha. libit stopped Family Prayers.
"One Sunday we were all at regular
family prayer. A sporting friend was
visiting me, and he and I knelt, facing
a low window with our elbows upon the
sill. . And from round a corner, lo, uhere
came up on us a coney, and he reared
up not two yards from us, and he heark
ened unto the prayers, and he winked
his nose at us, till my friend forgot
himself and exclaimed: 'We kin catch
that devil! I threw up the window so
hard that I cracked a pane, and out we
leaped in red-hot chase. And the dear
old archdeacon almost burst trying not
to laugh, for he had seen tlhe rabbit,
and was a keen -sportsman withal. We
ran that rabbit across four two-acre
lots as hard as we could split, and at
Insl we got him into deep snow, where
he gave up and was captured alive. And,
on looking back to the first fence we
had cleared, I saw a fuzz of white whis
kers above it, and heard a strong old
voice shout: "They got him! they got
him!" Outing.
