In adiiitinn to this, on must have a trnv.t ileal of time to de Tote to the stuly of the tfamc. It is this last whieh maVes the ab senee of female ehi-s.-. players v curious says the Omaha Wnrl.i-IIerald. In thit busy age men have no time to learn tht game unless they steal it away Iron: their business. A man in business must be at his offiee not later than nine a. m. Then he has to read the morning- papei for an hour, talk politics until eleven, go out to lunch and remain until one p. m., take a country customer out to set the sights of the city until three p. m., return to the of.iee and dictate to the stenographer until four p. m., and then go home so utterly tired out that he feels cross, kicks the family cat across the sitting-room, viciously shakes the furnace so hard thut he breaks the grate, growls at Lis dinner, and finally goes down town and plays "freeze out" for the cigars in order to secure relief from the cares and vexa tions of business life. With a woman it is different. She has a great deal of spare time and it is a wonder that the chess champion of the world is not a fcmiile. All a woman has to do is to get breakfast, get the children ready for school, wash the breakfast dishes, sweep the house, make the beds, dust, peel the potatoes for dinner, go to the grocery anil mar ket, get lunch for the children when they come home from school at noon, see that their hands and faces are clean before returning, wash the dishes again, sew buttons on her husband's shirt, patch Tommy's trousers, let a tuck out of Susie's dress, darn a basket ful of socks, get supper, wash the dish es again, get the children ready for bed, and, last of all, prepare for the break fast in the morning. If she would put In her spare time after these few little tasks are done in learning to play chess Champion Lasker would soon lose his laurels. Hut instead of this she puts in her spare time darning more socks and sewing on more buttons, and it is safe to say that the chess championship will be held by a horrid man for ages to come. . i ON ROLLER SKATES.

"I once saw President Harrison in a very undignified position," said an In dianapolis traveling limn to a reporter for the Kt. Louis lilobe-IJemocrat. "In dianapolis was one of the iirst cities afllicted by the roller skating craze. A young man named Kenton, living there, was the inventor of the devilish con trivance, and he soon had the city wild. Russell caught the infection and be came an expert, uno nignt ne pre vailed upon his father to visit the rink. The future president looked on the maze of skaters gliding over the smooth floor. It seemed easy enough. He was a famous ice-skater in his boyhood, and, like most others, believed that a man who could keep his head oil the surface of a frozen pond could not be easily downed. He secured a pair of skates, examined them critically, and looked irresolute. In those days the man who hesitated was lost. Half a dozen ladies old, young and middle-aged pirouet ted about him on wheels and urged him to the trial. An attendant had his feet chained down to the star-makers before he hardly realized it. He struck out with his left, followed with his right, nd did amazingly well. It was no trick, after all! Hut he got no farther. One foot shot out to the east, the other made a Columbian voyage of discovery to the west. They circled around eaeh other like an erratic comet chasing its tail, and the future, hope of the nation came down with a crash that made the gas jets Ili 'ker. In less than three sec onds half of Indianapolis was on top of him, and his head was just visible peer ing out from the wilderness of striped hosiery and crushed hats. He sat up when he got an opportunity, removed the skates, went over to the attendant, 1 handed him the offending rollers with j a polite bow and walked out. That was his first visit to the rink and his ' last." i PUNISHMENT FOR BLASPHEMY. Countries Where the Law Itegnrdb It fts a Crime. Among the measures with which the imperial Herman imrliuini'iit will be called upon to deal in the course of the present session is a bill for the abolition of paragraph Hid of tlie penal code, which makes blasphemy punishable by three years' imprisoi un lit with hard labor. Neither in llel;-iimi, Italy, Hol land nor I'Vance is it considered neces sary to make blasphemy a penal of fense, and, indeed, the only three countries of any importance where the offense is still regarded as a crime are Austria, (ireat ltritain and liermany. In England the acts of KKIl nnd of 10W5 have never till this day been repealed, and the New York Tribune says that prosecutions for blasphemy have been pretty numerous during the present century. It is, however, impossible to deny that tho timu has gone when blasphemy could bo regarded as a penal .offense. The p.testiou has be come more one of public order and de cency than of right of judgment. In Germany, where the present political maneuvers on the part of the emperor fhe Old MM-of-Wr to B Sent With Sunplie. to the Relief of Xhm I noiiDe-MrickeD People of Koi The fact that Secretary Tracy, In a etter to .'Senator W. D. Washburn, sig lifies his willingness to assign the sati ng ship Constellation to the duty of car rying to the starving people of Russia he flour and bread-stuffs given for that mrpose by the northwestern millers ecalls the fact, says the New York rimes, that this ship has been on a sim lar mission before. This was in 1S45, vhen immense quantities of provisions vere given by the Americans for the .tarring people of Ireland. The Constellation is a pretty old ship low, and many of her timbers will not itand the hardships of long cruises in lucceeding years, so that her mission to iussia. if accomplished, will probably her last active duty afloat. It will e a fitting end to the career of a famous ld man-of-war. The old Constellation, nearly all of vhose original frames have baen re laired and rebuilt in the present ship, vas completed and launched at Norfolk n May, lS'X), being the second vessel aunched under the then new organiza ion of the navy. Commodore Stephen Jecatur's squadron in the West Indies vas her first assignment to duty. liefore the close of this cruise she en lountered the French frigates LTnsur ;ents and La Vengeance, trouble with Vance being then in progress, and de bated them both, although the enemy vere greatly superior in guns and men. ihe lost her mainmast in this action, a nidshipman and seven topmen going vith it. A gold medal was given to Jomrnodore Truxton, her commander, y congress for his gallantry. When in the Mediterranean on its econd cruise the Constellation, then in lommand of Capt. H. Campbell, joined he American squadron off Tripoli, a iquadron famous in naval annals. The rigate Constitution, with Commodores Decater and Preble and Midshipman tlcUonough, figured in the attack which ollowed the Constellation s arrival. Vfter the victory the frigate proceeded a Syracuse and saw no more active luty of a warlike sort until June, 1813, vhen she was blockaded by a large Snglish force. Several attempts were nade to destroy or capture it by boats Tom the English fleet, all of which re lulted in heavy loss to the enemy. The Constellation is put down in the ld records of tlie navy as a fleet sailor tnd a stanch ship in heavy weather. .a her early days she is credited with a ipeed of ten knots on a wind and twelve md a half knots free, a speed which she s known to have mainfained even after he attained to the age of three score rears and ten. In the summer of 1883, vhen cruising with the naval cadets long the edge of the gulf stream, stud- ling sails on, she made thirteen knots .hroughout a whole morning. In heavy veather she can outride any of the old hips. In her cruise in the Mediter- anean in 1833, for example, she lived hrough a heavy gale in which a French dghty-gun ship was lost, and during he same night, while lying-to, she vcathered the French admiral's ship ;even miles. I he Constellation has been in every art of the navigable globe, and as long is wooden sailing ships were the models f the day she was among the foremost )f her class. Everyone of her lines is lymmetrical, and when she sails under i full spread of stun' sails a prettier light cannot be found. She is reported have beaten the whole British fleet n a wind in the Mediterranean in 1831. Although originally a thirty -six-gun ihip the Constellation's battery has jecn cut down in the course of her nany alterations until to-day she car ies but twelve, these bemg smooth xires of an old type. She carried a )ivot gun amidships until 1883, when it jvas taken out and her pivot ports built .n. For a good many years she has seen the practice ship attached to the Naval Academy for the summer cruise jf the naval cadets. This cruise only lasts about ninety days, and throughout the remainder of the year it has been the custom of the department to put her out of commission. These short tours of active duty have resulted in prolonging her life far beyond the pe riod allotted to the frigates Independ ence, Ohio and United States vessels which were built early in the century and which have long since passed off the navy list. The Constellation re turned from her last cruise with the naval cadets in fairly good trim, and were it not that the new government practice ship will soon be completed to take her place at the Naval academy she would doubtless live to see several more summer cruises, and thus perhaps crown her glorious career with a cen tury of service, for some of her timbers at least were a part of the Constella tion. Senator Tracy's statement in his letter to Senator Washburn, that she "can be sent at short notice," shows that the "old ship is not dead yet."

A few days ago while John Hun sicker, a farmer living near Schnecks yiHe, was driving his cows home from pasture, a large red fox ran out of the woods and gave the animals a lively chase. He finally got so close to one of the cows that she made a vicious kick at his head. So well aimed and powerful was the kick that it caught tho fox fairly in the head and dropped him dead in his tracks. The Word "Filed" Applied to lleuveul llodles (lives a YYroitr Impression.
