The American Nose.

Wells, in his "New Physiognomy,"
gives drawings of "rhe American Nose" !"
Its profile outline contains unmistakably
the curves of Hogarth's celebrated cline
of Beauty" though it seems no profess
sional physiognomlst has made note Of
the significant fact. In its alignment
with the forehead it frequently suggests
the Greclan type, especially if there be
but a slight indentation between the
eyes 1t is prominent at the "bridge"
after the Roman fashion then it re-
cedes little, finishing with decided
pug of inquisitiveness, or terminating
with that peculiar thickening Of the end
sometimes called a "bottle" nose which,
however, does not in the least signify
love of the bottle. The American type
is general purpose" nose, and may be
said 10 indicate a compound character
in which the refinement of the Greek
and the aggressive executiveness OF the
Roman are combined with that prying
''turn-up' inquisitiveness which leads to
invention and discovery. 1t is The nose
Of versatility, and its owner, if unsuc-
cessful in one department of enterprise,
can "pull up stakes" and ''try It again"
and is certain through hfe to leave be-
hind him very distinct footprints in
the sands of time. Peace and pros
perity may sand,paper the American
nose down to the pure Greek type rev.
olution and anarchy raay alter it to the
fighting Roman curve but "a cycle of
Cathay" would scarcely whittlo it away
to the contemplate dimensions Of All
Sins degenerate pug.

A Dreadful Bull Fight.

A thrilling episode is reported from
San Juan de Luz, Spain, as having TAX
eu place during grand bull fight which
came off in that town. Frascuelo, the
eminent toreador, had been engaged for
the Correo, although scarcely recovered
from wound inflicted upon him by
bull at Pampeluna, fortnight previous
ousIy, and entered the ring, his left arm
still bandaged and in sling, amid the
enthusiastic plaudits of the public.
After the first bull had been subjected
to the usual preliminary tortures at the
hands of the chulos, picadores, and ban
derilleros, Frascueio took up his position
in front of the corfegidor's box, there to
deal the infuriated animal its death
blow, secundum artem. As, however,
he delivered the mortal thrust with his
accustomed grace, the bull caught him
under the arm pits, and tossed him into
the air, trampling upon him when he
fell. With great difficulty the bAnder-
illeros succeeded in distracting the an
gry brute's attention from its PROSTATE
foe, who was raised from the ground,
still conscious, yet unable to stand with,
out support. AS he was being carried
out of the ring, the bull made tlrrce
rush at the bystanders, who had climbed
over the barriers, and scene OF inde-
scribable panic ensued, which, however.
was happily terminated by the dra'n OF
The bull. Transfixed by FrascueIos
blade, il stopped short, close by the Jar
rier, as though stricken by igHtnng,
tottered, fell forward on its knees, and
rolled over dead, having avenged It's
torments by disabling the most sNII''ul
and intrepid matadcr of the peninsula
Frascuelo is still III desperate - &C.,
but little hope being entertained OF MS
recovery. r.. ..

An Esopian Fable,

A Goldfish was one day sailing aronra
IN search of some one who might be ;n ~
clined to a religious dispute, wben Is %
came across Clam. That wa, ;n .l ne
days when Ccd6sh put on a heap of o;. |ue
over the Clam tribe, and this particuIas s

Clam, and began: ''''

"My eyes are plenty large enough to

tartly replied the Clam, "and, seeing
this, have no cause to smile. What
you say about my form is true, but I
make good chowder, for all that and I
have no bones to trouble the throats Of
humanity"
"Well, I'm thankful that I wasn't
born to begin and end my days in a
sand bank. go everywhere. l take.
in all the free lunches Small fish fear
me, and big ones can't catch me. See
how l glide around"
The Cod took circle round to show
off, stood on his head, fourished his tail ,
and then asked
l"Can any Of the Clam family do half
of that -
"As said before" quietly replied the
Clam, "we are not cut out either for
acrobats or orators. What / can do
try to do we'll What / can't do let
alone and don't worry over"
At that moment a fsh.hook, nicely
baited, dropped down between chem.
"Now, if you only had a little more
mouth, you could get enough at one gulp
to last you all cay" remarked the Cod,
as he eyed the bait. "As it is, you may
stand by and see me take in that ban
quet just see what mouth will do for
one in this world"
He opened his mouth, made a dive
for the bait, and was about to wink at
the Clam with his left eye, when he was
suddenly pulled out of the water and
landed in boat.
II think" unused the Clam, as he
closed his shell, "that it is great deal
nicer to be clam on sand bank than

Hasten to the house Of God;

Then lay down your heavy load;

To receive your humble prayer.
While the wheels of nature sleepeth;
While the hum of worldly care
Is all hushed. withdraw moment.
Round the altar drop a tear;
God tie Spirit will be there
To embalm your secret prayer.
Hasten then. O man Immortal!
Rest from busy thought awhile;
Come and sympathiZe with angels;
Come nearer your Fathers smile
God the Father will be there

Leave the world and All behind You;

AS its solemn peals are swelling.
Harmonizing with the thrGng
Which on high their voices raise,
In notes Of Hottest sweetest praiae.

The Fire at Racine.

Friday afternoon of last week the
news reached this pIacethat Mitchell'g
wagon factory in Racine had burned
early that morning. Later, the news
was corroborated, and the property de-
stroyed was considerable consisting Of
the wheel-shop, two paint-shops, two
finishing shops, two blacksmith-shops
two st0re-roonls and the office OF the
firm. The fire was caused by an explC-
sion in q fan used for taking the ref
use shavings from the planer in one
Of the woodworking shops. The night
Waterman was stunned by the explo-
sion. and when he recovered conscious
ness the building, liz which the fan was
used, was in q blaze. The alarm Wag
given Immediately. and the fremen
were soon on the ground, but the fire
had made such Roadway that nearly
two blocks Of wooden buildings were
burned before the fire could be con-
trolled, The cause of the explosion is
not definitely known, but it caused one
of the largest confagrations ever
known in Racine. Some 200 men ard
boys are thrown outof employment by
the fire. The loss amounts to $4,000,
partly covered by $4,000 insurance
The wheel paint-shop, one store-room
and wagon body-shop were saved. Il
is the intention Of Mitchell, Lewis s.
Co, to rebuild at once.

Since the oath the weather has been
