I Y NO AFTERNOON THERE. Washington Unique InTlin$ ItOnlyllas Mornings anil Uvenlngs. Strangers to "Washington often re mark upon the custom of addressing ono at all times of the day by the uniform salutation "Good morning." It sounds odd to the westerner to hear ono address him with "good morning" at 5 o'clock in the after noon. This custom is as old as the con gress of the United States and the hours of executive business in the various departments. It is said to bo directly due to the morning hour in congress. The standing rules of the two houses of congress provide for a "morning hour, "which extends from 12 to 2 o'clock, and that provision has made it common to refer to "morn ing business" in congress, which oc curs before the "regular order." Frequently tho regular order is not resumed, and tho morning hour is extended until 4 or G o'clock, especial ly in the latter days of congress and when there is a great jam of busi ness. In tho executive departments refer ence is made to the "morning's work" during the entire day. That is all of course official parlance. The custom has grown so that it ex tends throughout social life and in ull sorts of private business, until it is morning until all government business is at an end in Washington. When the bun goes down and twi light sets in, it is "Good evening." It is never afternoon in the national capital. Indianapolis Journal. Maryland May Ill-tig. Maryland is not much given to bragging of what she did in Revolu tionary times, but if she exhibited as much energy in blowing her own Uorn as Massachusetts does in blow ing hers, she could soon make Bunker Hill and Lexington seem compara tively petty events. In the matter of patriotic contempt for tea, tho Peggy Stowart incident at Annapolis has long ago made Boston feel tired of its own little affair, and the people of the good old town of Frederick celebrato a historic episode that would long ago have been crowned with the laurels of innumerable poems and orations had it occurred in New England. This was nothing less than the bold action of the county court of Freder ick, which, on the 23d day of Novem ber, 17G5, had the courage to virtual ly declare tho stamp act null and void and to beard the British lion in his parliamentary den. Tho Freder ick court led the way in this display of judicial heroism, but we doubt if tho incident has ever been recorded in any general school history, or if the Now England children who have been nourished and brought up on stories of th9 Boston tea party and of tho bravery of Massachusetts patriots ever heard a syllable of the sturdy old Frederick court. Baltimore Sun. Padorowsbl's "Jliuuet." A curious story is told of Paderew ski's famous 'Minuet," perhaps the most popular; of. all his, compositions. Padorewski, while still a professor at the Conservatoire ,of Warsaw, was one night at the house of Swiczto chowski, the polish litterateur. Tho poet declared thqt no living compos er could ever compare with Mozart in simplicity and beauty: Paderew ski at the moment simply shrugged his shoulders, but on the following evening he went to tho same house and 6at down at the piano. "May I play you a little thing of Mozart's which perhaps you do not know?" ho said. He played tho minuet. Swiczto chowski was enchanted and cried: "Now, you will acknowledge that a piece like that could never bo writ ten in our time." "Well," said Paderewski, "that happens to be a minuet written by myself . "Exchange. Why He Didn't reel Sure. Ho was pretty well along in years and had a laugh which was as cheery as it was ingenuous. "So you want to do chores for mo?" said the man on whom he had called. "'Deed I does." "Well, I don't know. You look as if you were honest" "Kernel, I'll tell yer dor troof 'bout dat." "Go ahead." "Well, yuh see, I specks I'so puf fickly hones', but I kain't be sho." "Why not?" "Ain't had 'nuff 'sperienco. I'se wifstood wahtahmillions all right 'nuff, but I neber yit had no faco ter face temptations wid chickens." Washington Star. Spoiled the Demonstration. The story is told of a parent who had become a recent convert to hyp notism. His small son, who had heard him discussing the subject, asked what hypnotism was. He did not answer, but with the imperative man ner of a professional mesmerist, said: "Now, Jimmie, do you hear? That is nota clock, but a dickey bird chip, chip " Jimmie turned and fled pre cipitately, crylDg; "Mamma, mam nia! Papa's got ihojjm jams?" New York Sun.

Chicago HeoortL ' r- -- sEssc MISSION OF THE HANDKERCHIEF. It Tells Its Own Story oftlip Wearer's Itenl Nature Its History. It is indeed true, as tho French winter says, that ono needs handker chiefs for the morning, handker chiefs to walk with, handkerchiefs to go to church wiih, handkerchiefs to loso and to give away, handker chiefs for washerwomen and for lovers to steal, and ho might have lidded handkerchiefs to leave behind to furnish a clew to the mystery, handkerchiefs for Othello to find and rage over. In Egypt tho haudker chief was couuted as an amulet and among tho Moors as a love token. Grecian women appear on their vases musing pensively with a large clpth in the right baud, and among tho Ro mans tho utilitarian use of handker chiefs was deplored by Juveiuil. The Anglo-Saxons used their "swat cloths" openly; tho Normans hid theirs ab7 their person. With Eliz abeth of England the handkerchief, like all other articles of tho toilet, was much to bo considered and was trimmed with lace and decked with embroidery. Tiny squares of finest lawn, hnoly wrought, edged with gold lace and folded neatly, woro made purposely for love tokens and were given by court ladies to their lovers, who woro tho dainty tokens in their hats. Now the handkerchief is in its way a thing of Mnitiment irom which ono may read a little of my lady's char actor. For the dainty woman al ways has a delicate, snowy bit of linen edged around with lace, delicately perfumed and with a certain fresh ness about it as if it were never used but once. Indeed Japanese ladies never do use a handkerchief more than onco any more than they use a toothbrush tho second time. A tiny bit of a paper handkerchief is that affect ed by my lady of chrysanthemum land. It is tucked into her bash, or obi, and used if necessary and thrown away. For morning there aro fine and thin grass linen squares, with a faint bit of color in the border, and very smart they look tucked inside tho coat or peeping from n waistcoat pocket, and for tho aftemuuii there are sheer squares of lawn most deli cately embi-oidered in fine and close rather than elaborate patterns. For evening the tiny squares are edged around with real Valenciennes lace, and very tiny they are, too, for there is nevorapocket in an oveuing gown, and it is well to have tho handker chief small enough to be tucked away in a small space. For some reason a fine and pretty handkerchief will almost redeem an old or commonplaco toilet. Some how in tho eyes of her sister women the girl who is dainty enough to car ry always something nice for a hand kerchief, oven with plain attire, rises several degrees in regard, and to the lover there is a great amount of sentiment attached to the littlo filmy trifio ho finds in her book or beside her chair, redolent of tho per fume she always exhales and warm from tho touch of her hand. New York Sun. The St. Tlorlan Colony. About 10 years ago a number of Germans who had migrated to tho northwest, disgusted with tho hard ships of that cold country, deter mined to remove to the south. They accordingly bought at $10 an acre a wornout plantation of some 2,000 ncres in Lauderdale county, Ala., and settled there. They proceeded to improve their property along prac tical and intelligent lines. They cleared away tho broomsedgo and planted clover and grasses, and be gan raising cattle. They sold hay and small gram. They planted or chards and vineyards and utilized the products in every available way. The result is that tho St. Florian col ony is among tho most thrifty and prosperous communities in the 6tato of Alabama. Their land is now worth at least $50 per acre, and they aro happy and independent. Now Orleans Picayune. Wisnr Than tho Oul. A few years ago, passing a taxider mist's with a friend who was an am ateur enthusiast upon tho proper mounting of tho trophies of his gun, he took occasion to call attention to the defective work of professionals. "Look, uow," ho said, "at that owl in tho window. An owl never stands like that." But just then the owl moved on his perch. Wo often re call our friend's surprised features when the homely spado or tho pro saic exploration of some Egyptian tomb turns up ovidonco which forces the theorizers to mako some radical changes in tho fine spun dogmas which they have preached with such authority. Watchman. An Irltli Possibility. In the coffee room of a hotel in Dublin an Irish gentleman said to a friend who was breakfasting with him, "I'm sure that's my old college friend, West, at that table over there." "Then why don't you go over and speak to him" said his friend. "I'm afraid to," replied tho other, "for ho is so very bby that ho would foel quite awkward if it wasn't he."

A llnphnraril Experiment That llrought Carborundum Into Kxiittonce. Incidentally to an attempt to pro duce diamonds by artifice, an Ameri can chemist has recently discovered a mineral hitherto unknown the hardest substance in existence with one exception. It is called "carbo rundum." Tho inventor for making his gems obtained from a concern in Dock port, N. Y., the use of its aluminium Mnelting apparatus. In reducing that metal electricity is employed, generating an enormously high tem perature. As a chance experiment ho put into tho furnace a lump of clay together with a pieco of gra phite, which is pure carbon. The result was some small wine colored crystals of rhomboidal. On examination it was found that they were harder than sapphire. Dia mond is the hardest of natural min erals; sapphire comes next and then ruby. Chemical analysis proved that the crystals were composed of carbon and silicon in a combination hitherto unheard. It does not occur in na ture. The process above described, repeated again and again, produced tho wine colored rhomboids every time. A company has been formed tc manufacture them for polishing all sorts of things, even diamonds. They are crushed to powder like em ery and made into wheels with a cementing compound. The demand for them is already greater than the supply. At tho office of the geological survey this new grinding is to be tried in the preparation of thin slices of stones for microscopical examination. Theso films of rock granite, marble or what not are reduced to such thin ness that ono can read through them. New York World. A .Toko Tried by Jury. A North Carolina paper tells the follewing: At Harnett county su perior court, a few years since, Judge Shipp presiding, the trial of a cause had been protracted till near mid night. The jury were tired and sleepy and showed flagging attention. Willie Murchison, who was address ing tho jury, thought to arouse them, so he said, "Gentlemen, I will tell you an anecdote." Instantly the judge, the jury and tho few spectators pricked up their ears and were all attention, as Murchison was admirable in that line, had a fund of anecdotes, and no one could tell them better. But ho soon proceeded to tell one of the dull est, prosiest and most pointless jokes possible. Everybody looked disap pointed. Tho judge, leaning over, said in an unmistakable tone of dis appointment, "Mr. Murchison, I don't see tho point to that joke." "Nor I, either," replied tho witty counsel. "But your honor told it to me on our way dowu hero, and as I thought the lack of appreciation must bo duo to my obtuseness I concluded to give tho joko a trial by jury." Fully Revenged. When Scheffel was staying in Italy for tho benefit of his health, ho re ceived from a friend in Germany an unstamped letter containing nothing but tho following words : "I am quite well. Yours truly, ." Annoyed at having to pay the double postage, tho poet packed a bowlder stone of enormous weight in a case and dis patched it to his friend without pay ing tho carriage. The latter, in the belief that the package contained something of considerable value, willingly paid tho high transport charge and opened tho case. Hia feelings on opening it may bo better imagined than described. On a label affixed to tho stone ho read as fol lews: "On receipt of tho news as to the state of your health, my heart was relioved of this load." Frauonzei tung. A Lesion. A man at a Glasgow hotel in a loud tono of voice called his friend back just as ho was leaving tho dining room and then whispered to him, "How far would you have got if 1 hadu't called you back?" Tho other, straightening himself up, replied in a tono loud enough for all to hear: "No, sir, I wou't lend you '. I haven't got it on me, and if I had I wouldn't let you havo it until you paid mo what you bor rowed two months ago." His friend will nover call him back again in a public dining room. Ex change.

Wood, may now bo used for a vari ety of purposes outeido the ordinary uses with which wo aro all familiar. It is not so long since wo were sur prised by tho announcement that it could be used for paper making, and wood shavings can now bo used iu many processes of manufacture. Tho latest use, however, that wood has been put to is to transform it into a food by means of a chemical process. Tho method has, of course, come from Germany. Every ono who has Btudied a littlo of chemistry knows that wood is composed largely of cellulose, and this substance, which is a complicat ed organic compound of carbon, hy drogen and oxygen, is very closely allied to grape sugar. In fact, it is only necessary to add tho elements of water to the former to produco tho latter, and this may very easily bo done by boiling with a littlo dilute sulphuric acid (sulphuric acid which has been mixed with water). In this way the cellulose in tho wood is con verted into grape sugar, very whole some food for cattle. Dr. King, a Gorman physician, adds to this about 40 per cent of meal of wheat, oats or rye; also phosphate and bone ele ments. Thus a sort iff wood glucose cake is made, which can be used in place of oilcake as food for cattle. New York Press. nngllsli Cleanliness. Uncleauliness is the worst of sins in tho English eyes. It is in Eng land, of all European countries, that cleanliness? is esteemed next to godli ness. The Frenchman's paradoxical exclamation, "What a dirty nation tho English must bo that they are forever bathing 1" is not as funny as it seems. The Englishman is the finest animal on earth, and it is be cause other nations forget that one must be a fine animal before ho can be a fine man that the English havo outstripped them in colonizing tho world and imposing on it their par ticular forms of culture and man' ners. Tho fogs and smoke would make the English the dirtiest people on earth, as their ignorant classes show, if they were not instinctively tho cleanest. It is to tho magic of tho tub and the towel that tho match less complexions and superb figures of tho English women is duo. Now York World. Asserted Ills flights. A Maine man homo from Boston says there's a good deal of talk about being run over by the street cars, but they didn't dare run over him. "Why," he exclaims innocently and with proper personal pride, "I stood right on the track when ono of them dummed skypolo cars came a-buzzmg along, and I thought Id just see if they'd run over me. They hollered and yelled for mo to get oft tho track, but I. didn't budge an inch, for I had as much right thero as they had, and they just hauled tho thing up stock still aforo they got to mo. All a man's got to do is to stand up for his rights, and them Boston fel lers dassn't run over him." And he looked just as if ho behoved there was no danger. Lowistou Journal. Miss Mistress. For the date of tho uso of tho word miss (sensu malo) Professor Skeat, in his dictionary, quotes Evelyn's "Dia ry" as fixing it at about 1CG2. But the word had been so used more than a century before. "Likowiso when I say miss, women tiro them selves with gold and silk to please their lovers" (Tyndalo, "Tho Para ble of the Wicked Mammon," 1527). Notes and Queries. The Human Electrical Forces !

During last season a house in tho Avenue do Neuilly was suddenly and unaccountably infested by rats. They swarmed all over tho place, and what was peculiarly irri tating teemed to confine thomsolves to that one house. Tho owner man aged to trap ono of tho Bwarm and having u mechanical mind construct ed a wiro noose, which he was ablo to slip around the captive's head. This collar was furnished with a Email silver bell, and so equipped tho rat was sot free. Of course ho found his comrades, or tried to do so, with tho result that that special house in tho Avenuo do Neuilly had peace at last. Near by thero lived a studious gen tleman of nervous temperament, tho plaintiff in tho forthcoming action. He was wakened in the night by a curious tinkling sound, which camo on fitfully, and seemed to proceed from every corner of tho room. Ho lit a candle and timorously proceeded to search. Thero was nothing visi ble, and yet tho mysterious sound was distinctly audible. Ho tried to think it was imagination, but fail ing, decided it must bo ghosts. It was clear tho house was haunted, and haunted, too, by day as well as by night. For weeks ho could not sleep, and tho anxiety told on his health. At last a gossiping servant learned tho truth, and tho victim, in stead of laughing at his own creduli ty, has begun an action against tho man who belled tho rat. Paris Lot tor. Sho Win Speaking to Kilza. A young Baltimore beau on a re cent visit to Chicago was riding in a crowded car in that city, when two bustling women who entered ex claimed, "There's no ehanoe of get ting a seat hero." The Baltimorean doffed his hat and invited hor to take his placo, to her utter surprise. Tho car became still moro crowded, and madamo's shrill voico said, "Won't you sit in my lap?" Tho courtly Bal timorean bowed again and said, "I do not deem myself worthy of that honor." "Why, I didn't mean you. J was talking to Eliza," was tho in dignant answer.
