The Were Five of the Clay -tore
'When. Trouble Brgu. "
Back of the mountaineer" cabin was
a 'great plum tree, and under this tree
was a grave without a headstone. I
noticed the mound as I wandered about
in the afternoon, but it was evening
and we sat at the door smoking- our
pipes before I made inquiry.
"Yes, that's Sam's, grave," replied
the old man. as he looked away into the
gathering1 twilight. "Sam was my son
my only son. We buried (him. there
five y'ars ago."
I saw from the look wihich passed be
tween husband anid wife that I -had
touched on a painful matter, and I was
about to change the subject when the
woman said:
"Joe, he may hevlheard sunthin 'bout
it. Better tell the story straight."
"Wall," said the old man after a long
pause, "they had- a boss race up at the
Co'ners. and our Sam was thar and got
into a dispute with one of the Clay boys.
Thar was five of the Clays, and Sam
was all alone.. He was only 19 y'ars old,
but when them Clays begun to elbow
him around- be stood up to the hull five
of 'em, Thar wasn't no slhootin' right

till Sam had got started fur home and
then rid anter him and opened fire. He .
had the sense to put -his boss on the
dead run and look fur kiver. They f oi-lered-
Sum right along home, and his
boss was shot as he jumped down' at the
gate. Mary, yo' tell the Test."
"I . was all alone yere," said the wife,
'and when I heard the shootin' I knowed
what, it meant. . I got down the Win

on -the ground and kivered up my face

it all lasted, but I reckon not mo' than
ten minits. When the ahootin stopped
I got up, and1 and "
"And Sam was lyin dead under the
plum tree!" said the old man.
Tears ran down the face of the worn

and it was a long1 minute before he
added:
''Yes, Saan was lyin dead on the

NEW SLAVERY AT CAPE TOWN.
Beehuaaa Prisoners Are Bought by
the Farmer.
The "slave -mart," judging from an
article in the Oape Times, appears to
.be definitely established in. Cape Town,
says the London .Chronicle." The slaves,
pf course, are the Beehuana, prisoners,'
and although there Is no suggestion
that these wretched creatures are treat
ed with harshness while in the gov
ernment care, they are clearly consid
ered and disposed of precisely as if
they -were mere bales of goods or cat
tle. Careful watch, and ward is kept
over them and the writer says that
"it is not easy to pass the strict guard
at the gate unless you are a farmer
coming to pick your labor.
Round three sides of the square court
yard men and women are squatting im
passively or standing chattering in
knots. They are ill-clad and exceeding
ly ill-favored, but not ill-nourished, like
the first batch of skeletons that came
Jown to town. A dhild here and there
s even bonny. There is no very obvi
jus dejection. The nearest to It is a
cnoody, passive look."
The fanners, too, quite enter into
the spirit of the "slave mart." They go
round the market scanning the men
and "sorting out those of the largest
size," as did the walrus and the car
penter with the oysters. The natives
cast expressionless, sidelong glances. at
their possible masters while 'they are
being appraised like goods in a store.
Having selected- one or two from a
group, the farmer is chagrined at be
ing told by a harried- official: "We can
not break this lot for you," as if the
knot of negroes were a dinner service
or a suite of bedroom furniture. Back
goes the farmer and looks, the natives
up and down again, and at length de
cides "to take the lot." When the na
tives are duly indentured for five years
their master unhitches his ..cart and
mules, outside, bundles his "labor" in
and drives his bargain home.
THE BULLDOG A GOOD DOG.
ret We Do Not Care to Take Liber
ties with One.
Xo member of the canine family has
been more persistently maligned than
the bulldog. Writers who have no inti
mate knowledge of the dog and his at
tributes have described him as stupidly
ferocious, and illustrators have pic
tured him as a sort of semi-wild beast,
til the general public has come to look
upon him as dangerous, says Ou.ting.
"Give a dog a bad. name," is an old
saw and perhaps a t rue one, but when it
is applied to the bulldog, it is manifest
ly unjust. Writers, too, have fallen into
grave error in claiming' that the bull
dog is deficient not only in affection, but
in intelligence.
No greater proof of the falsity of the
latter could- be' given than was wit
nessed at the late Westminister Ken
nel club's dog show, when Col. Shults
exhibited his trained, dogs, with the
bulldog Nick performing all sorts of
wonderful feats, especially that of
walking a tight rope, and, when in the
center of it, turning round and retrac
ing his steps, amid the applause of an
admiring audience.
Stonehenge, who is .considered one of
the greatest of canine scientists, claims
that the bulldog's brain is relatively
larger than that of the spaniel, which
dog is generally considered to be the
most intelligent of the canine race,
while the bulldog's affection is never to
be doubted.

OAK IS GETTING SCARCE
rhe Visible Supply I3 ; Rapidly
Disappearing-.
lacKMCd Consumption During the
Hard Times Period on Ac
count of Its Being a
- Cheap Wood.
No one who is at all familiar with
existing conditions in tlhe lumber trade
can fail to note that there is already
considerable complaint of the dearth
of desirable oak. Both in quartered and
plain stock fairly good lots of dry oak
are notably scarce. The leading job
bers have had their buyers out for
months picking up anything good they
could find, and the result is that a very
large proportion of the oak cn sticks
has already pr.sr;d into second hand
and is held by the present cvnors for
distribution to consumers. 'i'l men
ia the scutlh nre cutting it all the time,
but they do not Lavs to wait until it
is dry, or evera partly dry, before sell
ing. If they choose to do so, they can
usually negotiate for it fn advance of
the sawing, ar.d on terms that a few
years ago would have been regarded
as extremely liberal. Oak is, perhaps
the must readi.y salable cf any saw
mill product, which fact-indicates that
it is now, and is bcMeved likely to be
hereafter, relatively a scarce article.
While there is no occasion for alarm
as lo the present adequacy of the oak
supply, it is a question if the time (has
not come when serious consideration
should be given to the possibility, not
to say probability, that in the not dis
tant future oak may become one the
scarce woods. Considering the wide
distribution of oak, this may strike
many. lumber men as a remote con
tingency, but that it i3 not an impos
sible result, or so distant in point of
time as to be removed from present
consideration, is suggested at least by
the existing conditions of rlcmr.nd and
supply. Oak has been called for stead
ily during most of the hard tiu:e c-ilou.
The consumption has been large, and
has even increased, while that of
ollher woods has fallen be!ov the nor
mal quantity. This shows aa increas
ing popularity and a growing .require
ment which, it is obvious mur.t be met
from the constantly-lessening supply.
The growth of ozjl is too slow to count
much in adding to our stock. Practi
cally we are restricted for supplies to
the wood already grown and ready for
the saw. That there is cf this no in
exhaustible stock is readily proved by
the difficulty, which has increased rap
idly within the last five or ten years, of
buying tlhe standing timber in bunches
large enough to make them the basis
of a lumbering operation. If oak can
not be bought ia quantities now, there
is no reason to suppose that it is ever
going to be any more plentiful. If it
cannot be found now, it never can be,
and within a comparatively short time
the lumber trade and the users of oak
must face the fact that it does not ex
ist in sufficient quantity to warrant the
liberal and even wasteful use that is
now made of it.
It is the eonviction of those who have
given the closest study to oak that its
present market value is based upon an
incorrect idea of v.lhat is left, aud that
we shall wake up some morning to find
that we have sold almost for a song
the most valuable of our timber pos
sessions. Oak, except in the finest
grades of quartered stock, is still a
cheap wood. Is it not too cheap for a
variety that is in universal demand and
in only limited supply ? St. Louis Lum
berman. SAWDUST EXPLOSIONS.
The Ottawa River Is the Scene ol
Queer Upheavals. .
Who ever heard of sawdust explo
sions? They are common enough in
C-tnada. Navigation on the Ottawa
river has been seriously impeded at
times by explosions of sawdust, and
the Dominion government has at last
decided to take steps to prevent any
practice which will enhance the possi
bility of these explosions taking place.
One would hardly suppose that saw
dust dumped into the river would in
course of time reform itself into a
gas generator which would keep the
surface of the stream in a constant
state of upheaval., But it is true to
suoh an extent that small boa ta have
been capsized and large vessels ha"
been injured by the submarine convul
sions. The bottom of the Ottawa river Is
covered with a deep layer of sawdust
dumped there by the lumbermen who
have carried on their log cutting in
dustry on its banks and tributaries for
years. The dust becomes water-soaked,
sinks to the bottom, and in the course
of time, rots and generates a highly
explosive gas. The water rises to the
surface, each bubble being joined or
re-enforced by other b nibbles' on the
way up. Contact with air seems to be
as destructive as touchfire to this gas,
and the moment the surface is reached
it explodes with a loud report. Leg
islation may in time do away with the
annoyance, but even if no more saw
dust is thrown into the stream, hence
forth the millions of tons already there
will take a long time to work off their
gas-generating qualities.

HIS - NOSE WAS HIS EYE,
Strange Result of an Accident to a
Sixteenth Cemtnry Man.
Several authors of the sixteenth cen
tury mentioned the existence of a man
who, lading lost his eyesight, could
see thrcu.i his nose, says the Philadel
phia Record. The story, much doubted
at the time and pronounced fabulous
by physicians, is nevertheless true if
the researches of E. Douliot prove cor
rect. It seems that the victim had lost
his right eye early in life, and later
on while climbing on a cherry tree fell
upon a fence, the pickets horribly muti
lating the left eye, the cheek and the
nose. The surgeon called in consdd-
ered the eye entirely destroyed, sewed
up the wound and it healed in time.
forming a arge scar .where uhe eye
had been. A year later the man, then
considered- stoneblind, lay in the grass,
when he surprised himself by discov
ering- that he could perceive .through
the cavity of the nose the sky and the
color of the flowers on the meadow
around- hLra. From that time on he
practiced fcr five cr six years to see
with his nos?, which to him became
practically the organ of vision. . He
gradually became more proficient in
seeing in this way and could-see every
thing benea.th him while he remained
quite insensible to the light from aboVe.'
The condition of this man can be
explained sc-rantifieally. Although- the
lens of the eye had been torn- from its
socket by the fall, the optic membrane
and the nerves at the rear of the cavity
01 the eye had retained some of the
seeing power. When the eye had healed
together a small hole in the bone over
the nose must have formed which acted
as a lens in the same way as a pinhole
can be used to take a photographic pic
ture. This also proves that the retina
of the eye acts like a camera obscura
where the objects from the outside be
come visible when the rays of light
arrive there after passing through a
small opening.
HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Housewife.
If a piece of rare .beefsteak is left
over from breakfast, it makes an excel
lent sandwich filling for luncheon, if
chopped very fine and seasoned with
salt and pepper. In this condition it
is much more digestible than when re
heated in the universally detested stew.
Housekeepers who cook dried fruit
properly. prepare it by washing it thor
oughly, letting it soak in cold water
until all dirt or sediment has been
loosened and washed off, then rinse it
thoroughly and put it to soak for 24
hours in clear water. Cook it slowly
snd not very long in the water in
which it has been soaked. This process
brings out the real fresh fruit flavor
better than any other.
There is a legitimate reason for the
preference at dinner for candles as a
means of lighting. A single gas burner
will consume more cxygen and produce
more carbonic acid to destroy the pure

"THEATER SICKNESS."
a New Disease Discovered by a French
Physician.
jTheater sickness" is the name of the
new disease recently discovered by the
eminent French physician, Dr. Morti
cole, whidh is at present a topic of a
good deal of discussion in scientific and
lay circles in Paris. The doctor declares
that "theater sickness" and sea sickness
resemble one another, take their vic
tims entirely unawares, and prey espe
cially on women The symptoms con
sist of giddiness, loss of consciousness,
a deep faint, amd in perverse cases the
malady causes death. It seizes a victim
after he has 'gazed long at the stage, and
more commonly in tragedy than in
comedy, and, in brief, it constitutes a
species of asphyxia. When men feel
"theater sickness" coming on they be
come, according to Dr. Morticole, obliv
ious to all considerations of locality anid
put their heads between their knees,
while women feel an inclination to re
cline with their feet at an acute angle
above their heads, so excessive ia the
vertigo. Fortunately, cases of "theater
sickness" are as yet the exception
rather than- the rule. A theater where
all the men's beads would be bowed
down between their knees,, and where
all the women were to have their feet
in the air, wouM furnish a strange mix
ture of the mournful and of the hilarious.
NEW USE OF THE KANGAROO.
The Tendons of His Tail Serving an
Important Purpose iu Surgery.
Surgeons of Oakland, on the bay op
posite San Francisco, have resorted to
the use of Kangaroo tendons to tie up
the fractured, bones of a broken leg.
in order that the patient may have
use of his knee, while the .bones are
knitting together, says an exchange.
He is a painter, and this is the second
time he has broken a bone of his left
leg in the same place. To reset the
fracture and place the limb in a plas
ter cast, until the bone knits would de
stroy the use of the knee joint." said
Dr. Stratton. "The knee had already
become somewhat stiff from the first
setting. We have decided to make ar.
incision in the leg a the point of the
fracture of the bone and will bore
holes in the broken bones. Through
the holes we will draw kangaroo ten
dons, and they will hold the bones
together until they knit, without the
use of a plaster cast about the knee.
This will enable the knee to be bent
each day while the bone is knitting.
Kangaroo tendon is as strong as sil
ver wire. It is taken from the tail of
the kangaroo, and being animal in
its nature, it is absorbed, and the leg
does not have to be again cut open,
as is necessary when silver wire is
used."
PRAYERS BY TELEPHONE.
A Young Mother's Way at a Dinner of

At a small dinner given recently in

"There, if I did not forget those boys
again I Have you a telephone in the
house, and may I use it?"
She was taken to the telephone by
her host, and the murmur of her voice
is earnest conversation floated back
to the dining-room. After a short
pause she returned.

"We have an old relic up in our coun

Kentucky, "which could tell a thrilling
story if it were only provided with
tongue and brain. It is an old rifle
which is said to have been owned by
Daniel Boone, the great pioneer. On
the stock 15 notches have been cut and
these are said to represent the number
of redskins the indomitable Daniel
slew during his numerous expeditions
in the wilds of the then young state oi
Kentucky. On the stock is cut this in
scription in rude letters: 'BoOnes bEst

an uncle of mine by a trapper named
Dedmon, who lived on Powell's river in
Virginia, and whose grandfather had
