The Story of "a Steamer. !,

Speaking about fast-running steam
boats, said MIR. Thomas Hartshorn,
recently, rolling his quid into his lar
board jaw, and giving his Tuckapaw
trowsers a hitch Mr.. II. served as cook

Elephant that used to run between Gin
cinnati and New Orleans She was a
beauty. I suppose that when she was
tied to the bank with a sternline and
towline she was one of the fastest boats
on the river. She made one celebrated
trip from New Orleans, think, in 1S47.
Her time was made matter of record.
1t was seven days, six honrs and three
weeks. Comm up from Orleans once.
the Captain was sittin' at the table, and
he noticed several big hulks of fellows
servin' as cabin-boys. He called the
steward to him, and says he, don t
you think it would look better to have
boys waitin' on the table? I don't like
to see men film the place of cabin
boys. Let EN- go, and get some young
chaps Why, blast it, Captain says
the steward, them fellows were bows
when we left New Orleans
1.-THE Elephant" continued Mr..
Hartshorn, clinging to his nautical
"reminiscences, was pullin' out from
Memphis one day, on down trip, and
somehow she got mixed up with raft
of saw-logs. She broke one of the logs
loose, and it foated out into the stream.
The Elephant headed down the river,
snd finally got alongside the log. Then
commenced one of the incest races you
ever saw. There was a good stage of
water, and the log doomed along right
lively. For about week they held to-
gether purity well, but the Elephant
had to land at the mouth of White
river, and the log beat her into New
Orleans about twenty minutes. There
was something wrong with the Ele-
plants boiler. and she couldn't make
steam properly. That's what the
Captain said. She was a nice boat to

Aching for n Row.

Yesterday, as a policeman was lean
ing against the walls of the Detroit and
Milwaukee depot, he was approached
by man about thirty years old, whose
red face was a good match for his hair.
He was little g sprung y and he felt
like steer turned into clover field.
.sMister," says he, speaking very
confdentiallv to the officer, II don't
want to get locked up, and have my
name in the papers, and be fined, but 1
am in from Ionia on little blowout,
and I'd give clean ten dollar note to
have O little scrimmage with some
body" &c You mean you want to tight?
asked the officer. s.That's what mean.
I'm Just aching for row. L want to
stand before about three good fellows
and have some one give me the word to
go in The officer asked If he was
heavy on the fight, and he answered !:
i" Heavyl I should say / was Why,
I'm terrible. They call me the Rus
sian bear at home, and the hull town
stand up or sit down, just as 1 say 7
The officer said it was his duty to dis
courage disorderly conduct, but In
case like that, where a man had come
100 miles to get up q row, he felt it his
duty to extend indirect aid. He told
the Russian bear to go to the corner of
Beaubien street, enter some saloon,
talk in very loud voice, and he'd soon
have his hands full. 'sThat's me !;
much obliged !s' exclaimed the man,
and he walked off, In about ten min
utes boy came running down and said
that o mau with chewed ear, two black
eyes and broken nose was up there :"
in the ditch. The officer went back
with the boy, and he soon came upon
the Russian bear, who was lying in the
gutter, one leg doubled back, blood all
over him, and his coat ripped in every
seam. "That's you, is it ?" asked the
officer, as he pulled at the mans arm.
Well, did you find that row p "Po-

Brigandage in Sicily.

Letters from Italy describe brigand-
age in Sicily as having assumed dan
gerous Dimensions. Instead of bands
of dozen unarmed men being pursued,
as has recently happened in Romagna
and the Marches, by entire divisions of
the army, well-armed companies of
brigands seem rather to pursue the
scauty forces which fly before them.
The fields are laid waste, agriculture
and commerce are depressed, and in the
most populous towns robberies and
attacks are committed in broad daylight.
while persons summoned to act as iu-
rors pay the fine for contumacy, rather
than expose themselves to the ven
geance Of the Malta. Thirty-five cap
tured brigands have been transferred
from Naples to Piacenza and Pesaro,
and are about to be tried in the former
town. They were put on their trial at
Palermo for robbing the Monte di Pieta,
and the evidence had been given and the
counsel heard. when their friends fore
ed their way into the court and induced
the majority of the jury to leave their
seats, whereupon the trial was suspend
ed. Early next morning the prison
ers were escorted by 100 soldiers to q
ship which conveyed them to Naples.
It is understood that this dangerous
state of affairs will be considered at
the first cabinet council, and that a
suspension of trial by jury in Sicily,
with q concentration of administrative
powers in the hands of the prefect of
Palermo, is likely to be adopted.

Old Church.

A famous old church of London is in
danger of being destroyed. The Eccle-
siastical Commission desires to remove
All Hollows, Bread street, TO which on
Dec. %, 1908, John Milton was carried
from the tavern of the Spread Eagle to
be baptized. A tablet records the fact.
This building around which many his
torical associations are gathered, WIS
erected in 1865, destroyed by the fire
of 1866, aud rebuilt by Sir Christopher
Wren. Fortunately the church register
was saved from the great fire, and the
original record of Milton's baptism is
still to be seen. Among the old monu-
ments the church contains is one to the
memory of former rector, the Rev.
Lawrence Saunders, who in 1856 was
burned to death for persisting in the
reformed faith. The resident parish
oners now number only fifty, the aver
age congregation is nine persons and a
sermon once preached every Thursday,
for the support of which legacy was
left the church in 1929, was given up
some time ago because no one came to
listen. This last is even worse than
Dean Swift's "dearly beloved Roger. .
When the removal is effected the
records, monuments, etc., will be sent
to the Church of st. Mary-1e- Bow.

VanQuished by a Cat.

Mr.. Stebbins Peer, the funambulist
or rope-walker. who has a cable stretch
ed across the Niagara river, just below
the new suspension bridge, and gives
exhibitions of his skill in rope walking,
came near meeting with an accident the
other day, which, but for his agility,
would undoubtedly have ended his ca
reer as a rope walker. He conceived
the brilliant idea of taking cat on the
rope, and starting it on ahead of him,
in order to have two sensations at the
same time. When about thirty feet
from the shore he set the cat on the
rope, expecting, Of course, that the
feline would show how the thing was
done as well as he could do it himself.
But the cat was not at all anxious for
funambulisn1, and, instead of making a
bee-Iine across, turned upon Peer,
climbed upon him, and fastened his
teeth in his shoulder. In his efforts to
0isengage the cat he missed his footing,
and had to drop his balance pole, which
fell on the rocks below, and was broken.
Peer himself scrambled along the rope
back to the shore the best way he could.
He succeeded in reaching terra .fTmaa,
but the exhibition of the day was
brought to a close, as a funambulist
without balance-pole is of little ac-
count The pole was subsequently re-
covered and spliced. Peer will walk
again, but will not be likely to take a
cat along.-Kfmgsto,a (Cara.) Whig.

Life Not Essential to Muscular Motion.


DR.. Brown-Sequard, in a recent lee
ture, said that muscular motion by no
means indicated life. He referred to
well-known cases of snakes, tortoises,
and other lower forms of animals, NOV
ing on the slightest stimulus several
days after decapitation. He says he
has seen the iris of an eye contract on
exposure to strong light, sixte en- days
after, death. He had also witnessed
pulsations in the heart of dog forty
eight hours after it's removal from the
body, and in the human heart thirty
six hours after decapitation. An arm
fourteen hours after amputation was in
iected with fresh blood, when it imme-
diately contracted and extended the
muscles, giving every sign of life. The
doctor startled his audience by recount
ing the case of patient of his in New
Orleans, who died of the cholera, and
whose arms, for long time after the
vital spark had Enthusiastically fed, con-
tinued to rise and clasp the hands as if
in prayer, falling and rising in sort of
rhythmic beat. It must be great con-
ISOLATION to people who have disinterred
the bodies of their friends, and found
that their position had changed since
burial, to know that such phenomenon
does not indicate living interment.

Dangerous Playthings.

The Alps are dangerous p1aythings,
aud yet all tourists insist on playing
with them. Every one wants to go a
little higher than anybody has ever
been before. The ladies are particu-
1arly venturesome. Captain and Mrs.
Loekhart, of Scotland, were spending
the summer in the Swiss Alps, near the
Rosegg glacier. There is kind of
flower, called Eidelwess, which grows
only at about 10000 feet above the sea
level. 1t grows on a steep and rugged
height near the hotel where the Lock
harts were staying. Mrs. Lockhart
wanted one of these flowers. No lady
had ever been able to get one. She
slipped away from the captain one day.
and in company with a daring lady
friend assembled the height. She
slipped and fell from one precipice and
rolled to the next until she was out of
her friends sight. The friend raised
an alarm. Mrs. Lockhart was found
lodged against bush which overhung
a fearful chasm-insensible but alive.
She was rescued, all bruised and bleed
ing, but it is thought che will recover.
It will not be long before some other
woman will want to get flower which
no other woman ever reached, and she'l IL
go for it.

where the Brushes Are Made.

Lansingburgh, n. Y, has for cen
tury been celebrated for it's mammoth
brush manufactures, which to- day sup
ply nine tenths of the brushes used In
this country, the other tenth being
made in Boston and Philadelphia.
There are, large and small, sixty odd
brush factories in Lansingburgh Some
of these employ from two to three hun
dred hands, including many girls who
draw brushes at home.
The steam machinery used in large
factories for shaping brush blocks,
boring the holes for the bristles, and
finishing the backs and handles is
wonderful. Huge white birch logs,
thirty feet long and two feet in diane
ter, are fed into machines which rapidly
cut and shape the unwieldy mass in
brush blocks, varying in size from a
lady's toilet brush to BARRIERS pene-
traitor. Each machine is adapted to
the manufacture of a particular kind of
brush. Thus, every style, including
hair, cloth, hat, shoe, paint, whitewash,
horse, window, scrubbing, flesh brushes,
ETC., is produced only by its particular
machine.
