A Novel VIII.

The will of the late State Senator
George F. Baker, of California, is, to
say the least, peculiar document. 1t
has been filed in San Jose, and is as
follows:
hope and expect that out of respect
to my fathers memory my mother will
never marry. Should she do so, the
sums I have bequeathed to her must be
paid to her free and independent of any
husband she may hereafter have. Know
ing the difficulties attending the efforts
of women to gain livelihood in the
world, it is my desire to provide for her,
my said sister Lulu, beyond any perad-
venture, the comforts of life, and, know
ing the tyrannical and unnanly conduct
of many husb bands toward their wives, 1
desire that said moneys shall be abso-
lutely free in my sisters hands. Should
my sister be at any time so unfortunate
as to have a husband addicted to gam
bling, intoxicating liquors or other vice,
or be of lazy or spendthrift habits, then
] direct that my executors, or the court
having control of my estate, shall per-
sonally and directly expend such money,
in paying the living expenses of my
sister Lulu, and the maintenance and
education of any children she may have
I trust that no such necessity may arise,
but unforeseen calamities overtake the
best of wives who are SO unfortunate as
to be welded to depraved and unmanly
men who forget their VOWS and their
duty, becoming monsters and brutes
when they should be companions and
protectors.

Cutting Out.

The most desperate, yet generally
successful and popular, achievements
have been those known as "cutting out"
that is, attacks by open boats upon
an enemy's ships in an enemy's harbor,
and may cite one as among the most
brilliant and picturesque of the exploits.
The small British frigate Seahorse was
blockading another frigate of about
equal size in the harbor of Porto Cabel-
10, on the Spanish main. The idea of
"cutting out" the frigate from under the
Spanish batteries by means of his small
open boats, manned with only 100 men,
inspired Capt. Hamilton, and, when
communicated to his crew, was received
with three hearty cheers. The boats,
commanded by the captain himself, left
the frigate at night and made for the
harbor, not unobserved, however, by a
Spanish launch Growing guard" at the
entrance. This did not deter the gall
liant assailants. Two boats proceeded
to cut the cables, the others attempted
to board her at different points, two
only out of the six succeeding at first.
The Spanish crew, numbering 365, re-
tired before the headlong attack of prob
| ably not 80 assailants, and two boats
crews remained to tow the enemy out
if captured. For some minutes the is
sue was doubtful, bit while the deadly
struggle proceeded below our ithesome
sailors sprang aloft like a flight of night
birds: the gaskets were cut, the sails
dropped curtain-like from the yards,
the ship gained life, and foated outfike
a Summer cloud or vision amid the
roar of guns from the battery, the con-
tinued fire of musketry. the loud curses
OF the Spaniards, and the measured
splash of the oars. When the struggle
ended outside the harbor 119 of the
enemy lay stiff and stark, 81 were
wounded, while the loss of the victors
was trifingl This brilliantly successful
exploit was of the irregular and desper-
ate kind to which the well-known say.
ing, "C'eSt m1ag'aifque, mails ce n'est
pas la gue1re," would apply, and il
shows that in war not only the chances
of success, but the object to be gained.

why at all hazards the Hermoine should

tured. -Nineteenth Century.

WELCOME TO LoNGFELLoK,

From the London Fun, 1901
Here's welcome to you, Professor,
Arrived on the English strand;
For your songs across the Atlantic
In the tongue of the mother-land.
Your lyrics are loved of the household
That knows no Academy's law
One hands warm pressure is better
Than whole worlds distant awe.
It's cold in the clear blue ether
That the king of the eagles achieves;
But the swallows have endless summer,
And build close under our caves.
And the voices that bid you welcome
Are many, and tender, and true
They'd not shout for Virgil nor Homer
As loud as they're hailing you!
Come to the homes of the people,
Where your household words are dear;
There's seldom poet has sung them
Such lyrics of courage and cheer.
The poet who taught Resignation,
Who sang us the ''Psalm of Life
You are dear to them all, Professor,
Child, parent, husband and wifel
Aye, let Universities seat you
In Temples of Honors and Arts;
The people of England, sir, greet you,
And open the doors of their hearts.

Killed while Robbing his own Office

Sheriff William Estes, of Stokes Co.,
N. c., was shot on March 80, while
robbing his own Office. He left home
and directed his wife not to allow any
one to stay all night, and at the same
time gave her the safe key. About
dark one of the neighbors came to his
house, and Mrs. Estes having raised no
objection, he went to a room to spend
the night. After he had retired, two
men came to the house and asked leave
to stay, and Mrs. Estes objected.
They, however, went in and demanded
the safe key, threatening to kill her if
she refused it. She ran up stairs and
informed her guest, and was told by him
to go down, deliver the key and say
nothing of his presence. The men
then proceeded to rob the safe, and
while thus engaged Mrs. Estes's friend
came down and killed both of the men.
Upon an examination it was found that
one of the men was the sheriff, who had
disguised himself, and the other was
one of his neighbors.

LOUD-YOlCED TELEPHONES.
A New Discovery that AStonishei
the Electricians Themselves.

A New Discovery that Astonishes
the Electricians Themselves.
An improvement has been made in
the telephone by which the full tones of
the human voice may be transmitted.
Mr.. G. E. Chinook, the electrician
of the Metropolitan Telephone Com
papy of New York City, said recently
1.-TWO weeks ago went to Boston to
consult with the Bell Telephone Com
pany, from which all other telephone
companies in the country obtain their
rights. While there was invited into
the Office of Mr.. Jacques, the electrician
of the company. Mr.. Jacques said he
had something to show me that
would perhaps surprise me. He
gave me a seat in his private
room. About twenty feet away
from me was an ordinary looking tele-
phone, just like those in use all over
this city. A moment after Mr.. jacques
had closed the door l heard the voice
of an unseen person say, in ordinary
conversational tone Good morn
ing Mr.. Chinook, how do you like
Boston, I looked around in amaze
ment, and said to Mr.. Jacques Have
you got a speaking tube here?' No,
that Is the telephone said the electri-
clan. At first 1 thought it was
some practical joke they were
playing on me, but after little ex-
PLANTATION, I was convinced that it
was the result of wonderful discovery
in electrical science. By using the car
bon in a puIverized form instead of in
the shape of a hard button, and by
using a current four times as strong as
before, the telephone is made to give
forth as loud and articulate sounds as
those of the human voice. l believe
there is no doubt that, after this i'm
provement has been put into general
use, the call bell now attached to all the
telephones can be dispensed with, be-
cause the voice from the telephone can
be heard by any one near enough to
hear the bell. While I was still in the
room a voice came from the telephone
calling for Miss Taylor lady en-
ployed in an adjoining room some forty
feet away from the instrument; and
yet Miss Taylor at once left her desk
and went to answer the call"
Mr.. Chinook says that when the
voice comes from a long distance, as
from New York or Philadelphia, it is
necessary to speak loudly, but it is not
necessary to shout.
Mr.. Davis, the Vice-President of the
Metropolitan Telephone Company, said
that the new invention would probably
not affect telephoning at short distances.
The present instrument for short dis
tances, he thought, was now about as
near perfection as could be. The only
thing needed was wire that would not
pick up the outside noises which at
present sometimes interfere with easy
conversation. The new telephone would
be used for talking between distant
cities, as Boston, Philadelphia. Chicago,
New Orleans and possibly San Francis

Severe Winters.

The experience which emigrants to
Manitoba are now having will not en-
courage people to settle In that region.
While in most of our Western country
the farmers are having fair weather and
are ahead IN their spring work, the
railroads to Manitoba are blockaded by
immense snow drifts, and train of en-
igrants is frozen in three miles from any
point of supply. The people have suf-
fered from hunger, and, although they
are not now in danger of starvation
they may be left without fuel or lights
before they can be got out. Even if
all be true that is said OF the fer
tility of the valley OF the Red
River of the North, the length and Sc.
verety of its winters will tend to retard
the development of its resources, espe-
cially so long as there is so much land
open to settlers in our own Northwest.
