The Old Painter.
An anecdote which Charles Francis
Ada ma told years ago to the young
Henry Cabot Lodgo was retold by him
lu Seribner's. It was one of Gilbert
Stuart and of Mr. Adams' grandfather.
Stuart painted a portrait of John
Adams In extreme oWr age, when he
was nearlng bis ninetieth year. It Is
a very fane portrait of the old man
leaning on his cane. Charles Francis
Adams, a boy of eighteen, used to keep
his grandfather company during tbe
sittings and watch the painter at work,
lie said that Stuart, who was old, too,
and near tbe end of his career, was
physically feeble. Both his hands
shook violently. From a quivering
palette be would take his color, and
with his brush shaking and trembling
he would touch the picture. Mr.
Adams said It looked as If be might
dash the paint on anywhere, but tbe
brush always touched the portrait; ex
traordinary as it seemed, in exactly the
right spot and in the right way. De
spite his shaking hands and trembling
fingers the old artist never made
mistake.
The Other Side.

Star Hunting In India.
Among the sports of India is the cap
turing of bears, and to this end curious
means are sometimes devised. For
example, four or five sturdy men are
armed, two with long spears cross
barred on the handles close to tbe
snarp two edged blade, and two or
three with ten foot bamboos, of which
the ends are smeared with bird lime.
These hunters sally forth with dogs
before dawn. They pass along tbe base
of the hills with tbe fresh morning
wind blowing up the plains below.
Should the hunters be lucky it Is not
long before tbe dogs wind the bear.
The dogs are slipped and disappear In
the semldarkness. Soon their roaring
and growling indicate that they have
found the game. Tbe hunters run up
to the spot where the bear Is fighting
with the dogs. The men with the
limed poles poke the bear In the ribs
and adroitly twist tbe ends in Its long
bair, thus holding it fast on each flank.
The spearmen complete the operation
by repeated spear thrusts.
Cured His Drinking.
Jones, a Boston manufacturer, em
ployed Liobbs s a salesman. Ilobbs
was a hustler who brought business
when he worked, but who had a habit
of sacrificing two or three days a
month getting drunk ana sobering up
directly after getting his pay! He was
always in debt One day Jones called
Hobbs in and Bald that he would keep
him in his employ only on one condl
tlon.
"What's that?" asked Hobbs.
"It's this," said Jones. "Every week
I shall take $5 of your pay and put it
aside. Every month I shall deposit
the money In a co-operative bank.
You are not to touch that money as
lonsr as vou remain unmarried . and
work for me."
"But my debts. How can I spare"
"Pay 'em somehow, and let me see
that bankbook every month."
That was all no lecture on the evils
of drinking, no aphorisms. The other
day Hobbs brought the bank book to
Jones and showed $800 on deposit
And his only comment was, "And I
don't even get thirsty when I look at
it" Exchange.
Aoeording to Passport.
Prince Metcbersky, who is a Journal
ist by profession, was commissioned by
the czar to investigate certain agrarian
troubles. The prince went to Rouma
nia and there obtained one of the per
mits necessary for taking live stock
across the frontier. Then he went to
a Russian frontier post and presented
the document to the official as his war
rant to pass. The official could read
but little in ussian and knew no Rou
manian, but the big document with
coat of arms and seal, greatly im
pressed him, and he cheerfully put the
Russian official stamp on it His Inves
tigations ended, the prince went back to
Moscow and at the first opportunity
presented the passport to tbe governor,
saying:
"With this document I entered Rus
sia and traveled about for five months,
yet you must admit that the descrip
tion of me is scarcely correct or flat
tering."
The amazed governor read that the
prince was "one black sow, full grown,
with one ear partly torn away."
Many a young man makes a fizzle of
life because he starts out on the as
sumption that whatever progress he
may make is largely the result of hav
ing a "pull" that Is, outside assist
ance from relatives and friends. The
best "pull" any young man can have,
and the only one that is worth a conti
nental in the long run, is that which is
the result of his own industry, sobriety
and determination. Eventually he
must stand on his own pegs, and the
sooner he realizes this fact the better
off he will be.

Modern Witches.-
Centuries have passed since "witch
es"-were executed in England, but in
very recent times they have suffered
physical harm. Or. Jessopp knew a
Norfolk man who died in 1883, and in
the sixties had joined with bis two
brothers in a night expedition to the
house of an old woman. They took
her out of bed, and in the presence of
half a dozen, other people threw her
into a pond, "where she would infalli
bly have been drowned, but that some
who were not bo mad as the rest cried
out that she was sinking to the bot
tom and must be saved." Tbe con
clusive evidence against her was that
she kept a black cat and wore a black
silk dress on Sundays. In 1882 there
was still alive, and master in an ele
mentary school, one who, as a young
man, bad scratched a "witch's" arms
till the blood poured down, because
she had "overlooked" him, and only so
could his health be restored. London

Heating Brook.
How to keep a brook running freely
and water power working smoothly in
a temperature of 50 degrees below zero
has now been demonstrated on the
Yukon, in Alaska, by some ingenious
American engineers. A mining com
pany that used water power to devel
op electric power, obtaining the water
through a ditch many miles long, de
cided to try to operate through the
winter. At the beginning of the win
ter tbe engineers let tbe water in the
ditch freeze an Ice coat a few inches
thick. Then the water In the ditch
was dropped a foot, so that the cover
of ice made a protection for the stream,
with an air space between the ice and
the water. This kept out much of the
cold, but was useless without some
heating of the water. Accordingly
wires were strung along tbe ditch, and
at regular intervals electric beating
colls were placed in the bottom of the
ditch. By this means the water was
heated by electricity manufactured by
the water at the water wheels. Satur

Compulsory Illuminations.
The west end of London is always
ablaze with lights 'on the evening of
the king's birthday, but no living Lon
doner can claim to have seen a gen
eral illumination of tbe metropolis. In
bis "Recollection and Reflection" J. R.
Planche writes: "The last general illu
mination of London was that celebrat
ing the battle of Waterloo. Now there
are more beautiful displays, but this
one was really general. Not a window
in tho smallest court but had its can
dle stuck in a lump of clay, while In
houses of more pretension one blazed i
in every pane. Mobs paraded the me
tropolis from nyde park corner to
Whltechapel with cries of 'Light up!
and smashed every window that did
not swiftly display a dip in answer to
the summons."
An Enemy's Courtesy.
When the crusaders under King
Richard of England defeated the Sara
cens the sultan, seeing bis troops fly,
asked what was the number of the
Christians who were making all this
slaughter. He was-told that It was
only King Richard and Ills men and
that they were all on foot
"Then,sald the sultan, "God forbid
that such a noble fellow as King Rich
ard should march on foot!" and sent
him a noble charger.
The messenger took It and said:
"Sire, the sultan sends you this
charger that you may not be on foot"
Tbe king was as cunning as his ene
my and ordered one of his squires to
mount tho horse in order to try him.
The squire obeyed, but the animal
proved fiery, and, the squire being un
able to hold him in, be set off at full
speed to the sultan's pavilion. The
sultan expected he bad got King Rich
ard and was not a little mortified to
discover his mistake.
Got Even With tho Lawyer.
Many years ago there lived in Cam
den, Me., two neighbors, Dr. Huse and
Judge Thayer. The doctor had occa
sion to sue a man and of course em
ployed his neighbor, the Judge, as his
counsel. After a session of court he
met the Judge and asked about bis
case. The judge said it was continued.
Meeting him again after another ses
sion and asking again about his case.
the same answer was given.
As it cost $2 or $3 each time it was
continued, the doctor thought by the
time it was settled, after paying the
Judge, he would get nothing.
Some time afterward the Judge was
afflicted with a felon and, of course,
employed his neighbor, the doctor. Aft
er suffering awhile he met the doctor
and Bald: "Doctor, this thing is get
ting along very slowly. I have walk
ed the floor nights for a week. What
are you doing to It?"
The doctor, who stammered, loud
ly replied, "Co-co-continuing It, by
George!"

When Judge Stewart of Vermont
presided at the trial of a negro charg
ed with the murder of another of his
race he admitted afterward to friends
that he bad serious doubts of the pris
oner's guilt until he began to. pro
nounce sentence. The negro had
pleaded not guilty and repeatedly on
being questioned had asserted with
much emphasis, "I didn't do It!" The
evidence was not convincing, and the
Judge was surprised when the jury
brought in a verdict of guilty. His
doubts vanished when, after reminding
the negro that he had been duly tried
by a jury of twelve men, etc., be said:
It is my duty to warn you that your
days on earth are numbered, and it
behooves you to avail yourself of the
little remnant of time allotted to you
to make your peace with God."
Just there the negro broke in with
the exclamation, "Ah done dat al

dat niggah!" New York Sun.

Why Hollow Trees Live.
In forests and private parks one may
often witness the remarkable sight of
a very old tree with a trunk consist
ing of nothing but a hollow shell and
yet bearing branches that are covered
with foliage. It would seem to be im
possible that tbe dry bark, in some
cases only ueiu together by an Iron
band, could go on producing leaves
year after year in the manner in which
It does. The explanation, however, is
quite a simple one. In very young
trees the sap carrying portion is In tbe
center. It is a series of bundles of
minute cellular tubes scientifically
known as "vascular bundles." As the
tree gets older this series of bundles
forms a ting which gets bigger and
bigger as the circumference of the
tree increases. In course of time the
center withers and decays since it is
no longer needed to supply the branch
es with nourishment London Graphic.
Baautiful Leicester.
Leicester has learned how to make
herself beautiful from unpromising
materials. She has no suitable build
ing stone bandy, and therefore out of
red bricks, put together by cunning
architects, she has constructed a city
unlike any other in England. A local
art school has fostered the spirit of
beauty, and thus Leicester has trl
omphed over her limitations. She has
been described as a rosy red town set
in a mass of greenery. Even the lamp
posts have been designed by a sculp
tor who is not ashamed to let them
bear bis name. London Chronicle.

What causes the formation of the

of hot cocoa that Is made with boiled

says that it Is the result of the disin

casein, and the lime combines with
carbonic acid from the air to form a
thin film of carbonate of lime. This
film supports the undissolved casein in

George Glover of the Utah experi
ment station writes that in one com
munity with which he Is familiar and
In which hog cholera was rampant the
disease was stamped out by the fol
lowing method:
A competent veterinarian was made
a deputy sheriff with instruction to
clean up cholera. He did It by first
ordering the carcasses of cholera hogs
destroyed by Are. Healthy hogs were
Isolated from sick ones, serum was
used with discretion, pens were or
dered cleaned once a week and the
litter destroyed by Are, lime was scat
tered In the yards and the pens white
washed, the bogs were placed in quar
antine, and notices to that effect were
posted conspicuously, the moving of
hogs on the public roads was pro
hibited, and all imported bogs were
beld fifteen days before exposing them
to other hogs.
This procedure in a genera way, if
enforced vigorously, will control hog
cholera, and there is no other way.
The sanitary authorities must enforce
tbe same general rules in quarantine
and disinfection that they do with
smallpox and scarlet fever in the ho
man. and there is no reason why the
disease cannot be equally well con
trolled.
