The American Girl.

The American girl is champagny
She is glittering, foamy, bubbly, sweet
dry, tart-in word, fizzy!
She has not the dreamy, magical,
murmury lovableness of our Italian
girl. And yet there is cosmopolitan
combination in the American girl that
makes her most attractive coquette
in her frankness, in hes pardonable
frivolity, in her being a phenomenon
of verbal intrigue!
You may lose your head with her
easily in q week, and in the way of
recollecting what you had said to her
yesterday, for she is gifted with memo
ry; but your heart-:5amats!
1t takes longer time for that. But
be sure she will have both sooner or
later, and, like true belle, will sing to
YOU amid sighs and smiles:
Be glad while ye may,
Nor take heed of the morrow;
The sweets of to-day
FLet us taste while they lastl
o. life is too short
From the future to borrow;
Dull care, like an ort,
Fling away to the past!
1 don't believe she is half as merce-
nary as she talks, in the vein of "what
female heart can gold despise?n Yet
she gives strong impression that the
alpha and omega of life is a modiste
and a millionaire. My impression of
the American girl is one never to be
forgotten. She is bright, brisk and
business-like.
To be concise, would call the Amer
lean girl sort of social catechism-
full of questions and answers. In
MANY instances she omits the answers,
and becomes an incarnate '?" / never
experienced such pleasurable witness
box position in all my life.-Haliaa'

Dogs.

Among the pests of the farmer tho
dog holds high, if not the highest,
place. Not that the dog is necessarily
Injurious, any more than some human
pelngs are, hnt it is the unframed,
neglected, and consequently vicious,
dogs which are pest to the farmer, ss
it is the uneducated, neglected and idle
youths who become pests of society.
A well-trained dog, kept in proper sub
lection and under control of its owner,
may be useful in more than one
capacity, while its kind, docile and
friendly disposition and its wonderful
sagacity may make it an acceptable
companion. But when left to itself.
like the erring child we read of. it is
sure to bring its owner to shame and
grief. A Tennessee farmer who has
suffered gives some figures which might
be duplicated in every other State
with great ease. He says that his State
possesses 300,00 dogs that are idle,
vicious and worthless. Each of these
dogs consumes as much food as would
make 100 pounds of pork if fed to pigs,
which, in the aggregate, is equal to
30,000,0 600 pounds of bacon annually,
worth S3,O0O,OO0. This is the direct
cost of taem. The indirect loss con-
sists in the prevention of the keeping of
100000 sheep, the yearly profit of
which would be S6,000.000, SO that the
whole loss to the State by reason of
the keeping of worthless dogs
in a state Of ferocious savageness is
equal to S9,OO0,OOO. The schools Of the
State cost S3,OoO,OO0. So that the
keeping of the dogs costs three times
more than the education of the children.
The farmer might well have added to
his productive crop of figures all thl
various losses and damages direct and
indirect from the sadly defective educa-
ton of the children for which only
SO, 600, 900 can be afforded on account
of these dogs.
But it is bad enough, because this is
only a very small part of the whole
damage which is inflicted upon the
public by worthless dogs, or rather
through the criminal neglect of the
owners of them. For if a man should
keep a wolf or other wild ferocious
beast and suffer it to go at large to
prey upon his neighbors every night he
would commit an offense for which he
| would be amenable to the laws; and il
is equally wrong for him to keep a dog
and suffer it to become beast of prey.
There is no lawful reason why man
may not keep wolf or bear, or 6
tiger even, if he keeps it in secure CON
| finement. Society does not prohibi
this pleasure and qualification, and {
man may keep dog with equal pro
priety if he will only prevent it from
injuring or destroying his neighbor's
flock. But certainly every man shoult
be obliged to do this, and farmers WHIT
suffer damage have clear right to in
sist upon it and to ask for sufficient leg
islation to enforce it.-N. Y. Times.

BRUSHES or combs 1sed on the heads
of persons afflicted with scaly badness
will communicate the disease to other
heads, and Dr. O. LASER considers that
badness is spread by hair-dressers who
employ combs and brushes on their Gus
toners, one after another, without any
regular cleansing of these articles after
they are used Hair which fell from
heads in which dandruff occurred plent-
fully were collected and rubbed up
with vaseline. The ointment thus made
was applied to the fur of rabbits OF
white mice. Soon badness made rapid
drogress in the parts SO treated. Vase
line alone produced no effect.

The Dead Arctic ExpIorsrs.

NEW YORK, February 2O.-The Frisia ar
rived at the dock this afternoon, with the
bodies of De Long and comrades. There
were no deputized delegations to receive
the bodies, but there was considerable
number of relatives and friends of the de-
ceased on the docks of the steamship COM
pany. The remains were in steel-bound
packages on the main deck, on either side
of the saloon skylights. ALI the bodies are
not in q state Of preservation, and will not
be exposed to public view. Lieutenant Ward
U.S.Navy, representing gCommodoreUpshur
met the Frisia at quaratine, and came on it
% the dock at Hoboken, and transferred
the care of the bodies to undertakers, who
will remove the bodies to the pier and
guard them until Friday morning, when
they will be taken to Pier No. l, North
River, and put into ten hearses and escorted
to the Navy-yard, Brooklyn. De Long will
he buried in Woodlawn Cemetery. DR..
Amber will be taken to Philadelphia, and
Boyd, a seaman, to Virginia. The bodies
of De Long and the six seanen will be
taken to the Church of the Holy Trinity,
Forty-second street and Madison avenue,
where religious services will be held.

Tokar Captured.

LONDON, February 22.-The Daily Tele.
graph reports the surrender of the garrison
at Tokar. The Times confirms this report.
SUAKIM, February 22-Five soldiers who
arrived from Tokar report that the rebels
besetting the town kept up constant fire of
artillery and rifles. Tuesday the garrison
recognized the necessity of comforting with
the rebels. Wednesday Yakoob and Mac
caivi Effendi, Chief of Police, with a Ser
geant of artillery went out and conferred
with the rebels. On returning they in
formed the garrison they must surrender
their arms Thursday. Many soldiers muir
INJURED at this, and large proportion of
them escaped during the night. Tokar was
surrendered Thursday, as had been ar
ranged.
SUAKIM, February 22.-The garrison at
Kassala is reported to be 800 strong, with
sufficient supplies to last a fortnight.
LONDON, February pa hasty Cabinet
Council has been summoned. 1t is sup
posed important news from Egypt has been
received which requires the immediate ac-
tion of the Government.
LONDON, February 22.-The greatest ex-
citement prevails throughout London and
in Parliament at the news of the surrender
of Tokar: The Ministers are only able to
confirm the special dispatches. 1t is not
believed the rebels put the population to,
the sword, for it is understood the condi.
tions of surrender provided their lives
should be spared.

Probably the LATEST man on re

Probably the LATEST man on record
is a prisoner in the Lockport IN. W
Jail. The Sheriff wanted him to help
shovel off the snow from the streets, but
he absolutely refused to do SO. He was
then given the alternative of shoveling
or being shot. He chose the latter.
The authorities then proceeded to
"shoot'' him. He was placed in a
corner of the cell with his face toward
the wall. A gun was loaded with a
blank cartridge, and was discharged at
him. At the same time the Sheriff
threw book at the culprit's head, and
he dropped to the floor with all the ap-
pearances of being dead man, and he
probably thought he was. He soon re-
covered, but his dislike for shoveling
snow was fully proven.-Bufalo En-

The Cyclones Awful Power.

ATLANTA, GA, February 21.-One mil

houses, and 800 to 400 lives are the forfeit
paid the terrible storm of yesterday.
Forming in the valley of the Chattahoo-
chic, it spread into fan shape in Colum-
bus, one arm running into Alabama. Until
interrupted by the Red Mountains, thence
across to Cave Springs, Rome and
Canton, and DETECTING little southerly to
Athens, it demolished property in Banks,
jackson and Madison Counties. Another
arm shot through Carroll and Chattahoo-
chee Counties, killing many people, and
another arm, crossing the State from Co.
lumbus to Columbia, passing through the
town of Ninety-six, S. c., and thence to the
ocean. From 1ll these arms many smaller
tornados formed, which ran up the val
leys, carrying with them death and desc

The History Of Cards.

Mr.. George w. Pettes gave an inter-
esting lecture on Saturday evening at
the Mercantile Library Association
rooms, corner of fremont and West
Newton Streets, on 1.-The History of
Cards and an Analysis of Whist, to
goodly number of members and their
gentlemen and lady friends. The lect-
urer said that the first known of cards
was in Hindostan some twelve cent
uries ago, when they were made
of a sort of canvas bearing fig
ures and emblems of various sig
nifcance, and that some of these are
vet to be seen in the Punjaub, although
very rare. In the reign of Charles
VII, cards similar to those of the
present day were used in France,
although the court cards were known
by different names, and in the reign OF
Edward 1. of England charges for cards
are found in the royal accounts, while
in 1902, in the reign of Queen Anne.
10000 reams of paper were used for
making playing cards. The use OF
cards was made to afford information
and pleasure to the heather, and it was
Christian Europe that debased their
use by the introduction of gambling
and sharping. Whist probably took its
name from game called whisk or
swabbers, although the two were very
dissimilar, the one being noisy and the
other quiet and thinking game. In
England, Lord Folkestore and friends
revised the ancient game of whist, and
made the present long game of ten
points. and this was published in Ed
mund Hoyle's treatise in 1742, but he
was not the father of the game, being
only the patron saint of gamesters.
The game of short whist was conceived
by John Lorraine Baldwin, of England,
in 1864, and rules were then made for
its play, but the lecturer condemnei il
as being far inferior to the full long
game, as also game of five points,
excluding honors, which is sometimes
played, and which he called a mongrel
game. Mr., Pettes claimed that whist,
properly played, was one of the most
scientific of games. which, while it re-
quired close attention, was a rest from
active business for the player. and was
peculiarly game which showed the
disposition of every man who played it.

is between $40, 900 and $4,000. This is said
to be the most expert job ever performed

First Sight Of the Caspian Sea.

One of the most singular mental ef-
fects I noticed on myself was that pro-
duced whenever walked to the quay
and saw the large feet rocking in the
port. Shelley's Alastor had from early
youth haunted my memory and given
me the impression that Caspian was a
weird, haff-ideal sea, with shores ten
anted by the ghosts of dead empires;
with coast which was reedy morass
trodden only by the bittern and the
crane; with waters gray with the haze
of perpetual twilight, vast, myste-
rious solitude. Such in part it is on the
eastern shore, but at Baku the Caspian
conveys no such idea. Square-rigged
ships ride at anchor by scores; the port
is busy with wherries and sail-boats
darting hither and thither; and sharp,
heavily-sparred steamers of 500 to 1000
tons are constantly entering and leav-
ing the docks. The only peculiarly
that distinguishes these ships from
those of other seas is the rig, which
carried me back to my boyhood. Two
topsail schoone-s with very rakish
masts abounded, thoroughly piratical
and altogether like kvessels com
mon elsewhere thirty-fve years
ago, but not longer in use except on
the Caspian. Brigantines, with small
topsail on the main-mast, sloops with a
square topsail, and other obsolete rigs
were to be seen on this sea which has
fashions of its own; which has no rela-
tons with any other sea; which is
neither fresh nor salt, and also enjoys
the freak of lying over one hundred
feet below the level of the OCEAN
Manhattan.
