John Jacob Astor was born in tbe lit tle village of Waldorf, in Germany, In 1703, Just as France at the close of the Seven Years' war was ceding Cauadu to England. He snlled to our side of the Atlantic In 1783. when George III. In the treaty of Paris was acknowledging our Independence and when tbe merelianta of Moutreul were establishing tbe Northwest company. lie became a fur dealer, gradually gaiued control of tbe trade south of Lakes Huron and Superior, except that which was In tbe bauds of the Mackinaw company, and won a repu tation as a daring and resourceful op erator, which made his name known In Montreal, St. Louis, London and Canton. He bad u dozen vessels afloat, repre senting a capital of *1,000,(100, carry ing furs to England and China In 1800, and nt the time that tbe pur chase of Louisiana In 1803 pushed our lioundary to the Rocky mountains he was the wealthiest and most success ful merchant In the United States.— North American Review. The Man of Leisure. Most of our rich men work very hard —not always because they want to. but In many Instances because they have to. The husbandry of a big estate In itself may lie a tusk for the whole of the time and thought, not of one num, but of several. As a general thing It Is fair to say thnt our only man of leisure Is the tramp. The social parlab, tbe mutineer against the rule of work. Is the only one who can be sure of a care free, sybaritic existence, and even he Ilves In constunt danger of rock salt from the farmer's gun or tbe onslaught of the watchdog around tbe corner as tbe holxi knocks at the kitchen door or pauses nt tbe water trough to drluk. The poor tramp la certainly a more frequent social phenomenon than tbe rich one.—Philadelphia I-edger. IW'A LAST OF THE YAQUIS. CANINE HUMOR. M.r. Marked In Mongrels Than Lt Dogs With Pedigrees. I generally ilnd. writes a well known ! English scientist, that mongrel dogs when they happen to be sociable have a keen sense of humor. Au aristocratic dog with a pedigree may have some Inherited smartness, but has no origi nality. A common yellow dog with no ancestry to speak of. who has to gain bis living by bls wits, could glvi him cards and spades st bls own tricks In two lessons. Once 1 took Into tbe bouse out of pity a mongrel yellow dog who Insist ed on Installing himself at my door step and always came back, no matter bow often be was chased away. 1 had at that time a pedigreed water spaniel, and I tried to teach him some tricks when I took him out along a quiet road at times. Tbe yellow dog. who rnude friends with him. always came along and beat tbe water spaniel at bls own tricks without training. Then be be gan to play tricks of his own on tbe spaniel. When he bad a bone be look ed out for bis comrade, and when he saw him loplug along he would lay the bone in his path and disappear The xpaufel always made for tbe bone but the yellow dog. Just as he was about to grab it, would dart from bls biding place and, seizing It. run off with It. This happened over nud over again, but tbe high bred spaniel never tumbled to the Joke.—New York World TEN KINDS OF MONEY. But Not All of Undo Sam’s Ataortmant la L.gal Tender. Uncle Sam officially has ten kinds of money—gold coins, standard silver dollars, subsidiary silver, gold certifi cates, sliver certificates, treasury (1890) notes, United States (greenbacks) notes, national bank notes, nickel coins and bronze coins—says tbe In dianapolis News. While some of this paper currency Is not legal tender, minor coins are legal tender In small amount. Legal tender Is so called be cause In payment of a debl or obliga tion of any kind It can be forced on the creditor "In full of all demand." Gold certificates, silver certificates and national bank notes, despite the enormous quantity In circulation, are not legal tender. So far as silver coin is concerned, only *10 worth of "hnlves,” “quarters" and "dimes" are legal tender, and, as to nickel and cop per coins, only 25 cents can be forced on tbe creditor. However, with the standard silver dollar there Is no limit to the amount to be paid In liquida tion of a claim. Tbe creditor can re fuse the silver certificate, but when it comes to tbe "dollar of the dads" tbe dollar must be received at Its face value. eveD If a thousand weigh 58.92 pounds. Jack Robinson. A.

Passing of a Once Famous Tribe Mexican Indians. All the world baa heard of the mous Yaqui Indians of the state Sonora. Mexico. They are for the most part dwellers In the bills, crudely arm ed with primitive weapons, but ter rific fighters who have more than once decisively beaten the soldiers of Mexico. Peaceable when undisturbed, fully alive to the riebnes» of their mines and the value of their fertile valleys, they sought only to defend that which was theirs from the grasping bauds of those who desired their mines and their lands. Like most aborigines, however, they were doomed from the first. What was at the time of Cortes a tribe of 5,000 strong, able to defy the warriors of Montezuma, has dwindled until there are now not more than 500 souls In the valley of the Yaqul river and In the mountain gorges which wall In the source of this Stream. The bulk of the Yaquis have been wiped out in sanguinary wars or taken prisoners and shot, and those for whom no excuse for death could be found have l*-n deported to the fever strick en vales of Yucatan. The Yaquis as a race are no more, but tbelr passing has been made complete only during the past few years.—Wide World Mag azine.

Tlaaet, tha Famous French Paintar, and Hia Critio. An Interesting story is told of Jacques Tlssot, tbe great French paint er. While In England he painted a beautiful religious picture and, meet Ing a countrywoman, asked her opinion of his work. “It's a chef d'oeuvre,” she replied, giving a remarkably just and detailed appreciation of tbe vari I ous merits of the really splendid paint ing. "Are you satisfied?" asked a friend. Tlssot answered in the negative. He entirely repainted his picture, working night and day. When finished he aent again for bls fair critic, who pronounced It ad- mirable and remained silently adtnir- ing it with smiling criticism. «1 'Are you satisfied?” asked the friend again when the lady had departed, “No,” replied the artist, and be set to work for the third time. When the Parialeune saw the new painting she gazed at It for some mo ments with evident emotion and then without a word sank softly to her knees and began to pray. “Are you satisfied now?" whispered the friend, and Tlssot said “Yes.”— London Saturday Review.

Hannibal’s Downfall. The fate of Hannibal turned upon the result of a promenade. It was after be bad crossed the Alps and entered Italy, with winter quarters established at Capua. His residence was one of the best houses In the ctlty, and while walking in the garden he heard ft fe male voice singing not far away. Struck by the tones of the voice, be Is sued sn order that the singer should be brought before him. He was so greatly Impressed by her charms that be at once attached her to his household, disposing of the busband by beheading him. Retribution followed closely upon the cowardly perpetration of the out- rage. The balance of the winter was devoted to pleasure, discipline and drills were practically abandoned, and with the advent of spring the Cartha ginian army was so demoralized by the dissipation of the city that Its pres tige was lost, and with It came the dowufall of Hannibal.
