A writer in Paris publication says:
"Biting dogs and bitten dogs fill the labora-
tory Without reckoning the hundreds of
mad dogs that have died i'll the laboratory
during the last three years, there never oc-
ours case Of hydrophobia i'll Paris of which
Pasteur is not informed. Not long ago a
veterinary surgeon teiegraphed him: SAT
task at its height in poodle dog and bull
dog. Come Pasteur invited me TO accom-
pany him, andwe started, carrying six rab-
Its with us in basket. The two dogs
were rabid to the last degree The bull dog
especially, an enormous creature, howled
and foamed in its cage. A bar of iron was
held out to him; he threw himself upon it,
and there was great difficulty in drawing it
away from his bloody fangs
Zone of the rabbits was then brought
near the cage, and its dropping ear was al
lowed to pass through the bars But, not
withstanding this provocation, the dog flung
himself down at the bottom of his cage and
refused to bite Two youths then threw a
cord with a slip-loop over the dog as lasso
is thrown. The animal was caught and
drawn to the edge of the cage. There they
managed to get hold of him and secure his
jaws, and the dog, suffocating with fury,
his eyes bloodshot, and his body convulsed
with violent spasm, was extended upon
table and held motionless, while Pasteur,
leaning over his foaming head at the dis
tance of fingers breadth, sucked up into a
narrow tube some drops of saliva. In the
basement of the veterinary surgeons house,
witnessing this formidable tete-a-tete,
thought Pasteur grander than | had ever
thought him before"

A Woman and a Telegram.


The other day young housewife left her
home in this city to spend few days with
several lady friends in Hamilton. Before
going she provided good supply of cold
edibles for her husband, and told him that
he could nelp, himself whenever he was
hungry He took lunch downtown and
went home in the evening for dinner.
AS he tells the story he found cold chicken,
cold butter, cold pie, cold milk, cold salt
cold mustard, and several other cold dishes,
Tut with all that he was not entirely salts
fed, and hunted high and low for something
else kt first he did not know whatoit was,
but finally concluded that he wanted bread
He knew there was some in the house, but he
could not find it. Finally he concluded to
telegraph his wife, for he could not live
without bread Accordingly a telegram
asking "Where is the bread?' was dis
patched.
The wife receivedoit in the presence of a
number of ladies, and it frightened her
nearly to death. With the cry, 81 know it
is bad news: 1 know Mr.. BIS killed."
She fell in faint. The ladies present cried
from sympathy, and a most lugubrious
scene presented itself when the man Of the
house happened in. "What's the matter
here?' he asked 'Mrs BIS husband has
been killed and she has tainted, " was the re-
ply. "How do you knows' he asked. "Oh,
she got telegram" "Where is its" ''We
haven't opened it yet"
Imagine the scene when the sympathetic
creatures read the message In about an
hour the reply was sent back to him: s'You
mean thing. It's in the bread box, under
the piano, where hid it from the cook. "

duties of the chair, but such substitution

He must be present daily to- open the pro-

sufficient cause. He has the responsibility
for the senate wing of the capitol, and he
receives all the reports from the depart

An election as presiding officer is no guar

CRANKS OF ALL SORTS.
Chief Clerk Ca1mack, of the Girard
house, said that the man known as telephone
cranks were continually asking permission
to use the telephone. Frequently permission
is granted, and, after looking through the
telephone guide, the cranks often call up
dozen people and ask them all sorts of ques-
tions relating to their hobbies. There is an
old crank who clings to the bar
room. He claims to own a sewing
machine company, and every time he
gets a drink he issues a certificate for one
share of stock to the bartender The bar
tenders own nearly all the stock.
An old man, who waylays farm
ers, claims to have a butter machine
that will produce twice the quantity of
butter out of the same amount of milk that
can be obtained from any churn in exist
ence Two men have patents for UNDER
ground railways for sale. One crank wants
100000 for his invention, and the other is
willing to sell for $75, 900 cash. Any number
of cranks offer security at the hotel Office in
the case of imaginary stock for small loans,
but they never get the loans 1t is an every
day occurrence for cranks to engage rooms.
Sometimes they are not known to be cranks
and the rooms are reserved.

Hunter, Green county, rustieating and
drinking in the sweet beauties of nature. !"
One day, on his way to the hotel after a
long ramble through brush and briar, he
stopped ut neat-looking farm house for the
purpose of getting a fresh glass of milk.
The kitchen door stood open. Mr.. Hauck,
after knocking walked in. He saw no sign
of life except baby in cradle, which was
being rocked to and fro by some unseen
power
A. closer examination revealed the fact
that stout cord was fastened to one Of the
rockers and run through hole in one side
of the room Mr.. Hauek resolved to follow
up the cord and see what the other end of it
was fastened to- The search led him to q

Clara Morris Diet In Ballet Days -
Charles Kean and Wife.
Exchanged
Clara Morris, in an interview with a
Louisville reporter, says: 81 am not allowed
to talk often. I either read or paint, or lie
on my back in darkened room Do you
know, I like rest so that love the days
when do not act 1t helps me to be idle.
I get fat on it. Last summer l had to have
my dress altered four times between st.
Louis and New Orleans. 1 got thin SO fast
as that am always taking in or letting
out and a dress that fits me this week may
be too large or too small next week. Misera-
BILE, isn't it? live on cream, which makes
fat quickly, but it is a fat that does not last.

''It was not so when was in the ballet.
Those were good times, and / was not ill

used to do servants parts, earring on letters
and other such work Dresses didn't bother
us so much then. It was Charles Kean, I
think, who first made Dress correct costum-
ing of importance in stage representation.
He was a dear old man on his little shaky
pins when 1 first knew him. remember
they sent me down from Cleveland to
Columbus to do pages part with Mr.. and
Mrs Kean-Ellen Tree you know"
went on as "a page until one of the
ladies in the company got ill, and then
played her part; ON twelve hours notice
and did not miss line. That pleased
the old man greatly. He was the most
gallant of men and dreadfully in love
with his wife When they left the
theatre he always offered her his arm, and
they sailed out together, but they never
went far before he was leaning on her arm
and toddling along in the shade Of her hoop
skirts Goodness! what skirts she wore.
They stretched out around her in circle
that was prodigious and overwhelming. The
little boys would follow them down the
street, and Mr. Kean would turn around
with his trembling hand, shaking his stick
at them, while in piping voice he would say:
Little boys, go away you naughty rascals
or I will thrash you. Mrs. Kean, in the con-
scious dignity of widespreading skirts,
would say: Pay no attention to them,
Charles, dear; perhaps it is my hoopskirt
that ir +erests Them"

The Water Boys I'm Connecticut.

The water BOY who goes through the
passenger trains in Connecticut, with his
pail of water and tray of tuinblers, offering
free drinks to all the passengers, is sur
vival of the war period During the re-.
bell:on thousands of sick and wounded sol.
diers passed through the states on their way
home to be nursed, and many of them, their
canteens being empty, longed in vain for a
draught of cool water The late J. F.
Trumbull of Stonington, who was in the.
legislature at the time, having ridden on a
trair in which were home-returning soldiers,
and noticing their distress on account of
their inability to get water, at once pushed
law through the legislature providing that
all railroads in the state must carry water
boys on their passenger trains. The statute
still remains in force

Exposition of the Chess Board.
fExchanoel

One of the characters in Rainbow Gold"
by David Christie Murray, is named Arm
strong. He is famous chess player and
thus expounds the moral of the game: "The
game was intended to be satire on royalty,
and an exposition of the natures and
capacities of men. Observe the king.
There's no game without him. He's
essential, but he's useless, and if that is Q
contradiction in tairnns, Job, We must blame
the man that invented the game and not me
that describe it. The poor, big creatures
just able to lift foot at time The COM
mon people bleed for him. The church in
the person Of the bishop runs sideways for
him. That'sa keen dig, lad Do you mark
how the bishops course, from his own point
of view is straightforward; he sticks to his
own straight line, but the man that has the
board before him sees the crab-like course
he takes The knight was originally q
casuist or lawyer The castle was the
military man, downright fellow, Job--a

THE WELCOME BACK.

sweet Is the hour, that brings us home,
Where all will spring to meet us,
Where hands are striving as we come
To be the first to greet us.
When the world has spent its frowns and
wrath
And care been sorely pressing,
'Tis sweet to turn from our rowing path
And find fireside blessing.
All, joyfully dear is the homeward track,
If we are but sure of a welcome back!
What do we reck on dreary way,
Though lonely and benighted,
If we know there are lips to chide or stay
And eyes that will beam loye-lighted2
What is the worth Of your diamond ray
To the glance that: flashes pleasure
When the words that welcome back betray
We form hearts chief treasure?
Oh, joyfully dear is our homeward track,
If we are but sure of welcome backl

pierre Lori1lard's English Partridges.


Rich sportsmen have lately taken to the
foreign notion of preserving land for game,
to be hunted by themselves exclusively; but
the laws to protect such enterprises are
lacking here, as Pierre Loriilard has disgust
to know. He sometimes goes to Washing
ton market in person to select whatever
novelties and extras may chance to be on
sale. The other day he saw there, hanging
in a poulterer's stall, three pairs of part
ridges. He had reason to be agitatsd by
the sight,
ssHow much are theya" he asked
ssTwo dollars pair" was the reply;
s.they are very peculiar never saw any
lust like them, and don't think them dear
at that price. $,

So he had They were genuine Engiisn
partridges, and he had imported them as an
experiment In acclimatization They had
been loosed On his extensive farm IN New
Jersey, and he had actually paid the pot
hunter of that ueighborhood s. not to shoot
them; bat somebody hagged and marketed
them il. spite of all precautions.

Bones by the Carload.

Since the 1st of last May twelve carloads
of bones have been shipped east from Cimar-
ron, Ford county, averaging 22,000 pounds
to the car, and aggregating 1870 tons, or
264, 600 pounds. These are principally the
bones and horns. of buffalo, and, of course,
some bones of domestic animals which have
died. They have been bleaching on the
broad prairies for years, and are gathered
up by citizens and hauled fifty and seventy
five and sometimes 100 miles. They sell for
$40 per ton here, are shipped east, where
they are manufactured into handles for cut
lery tooth brushes, rings and ornaments for
harness and various other purposes, while
the refuse is ground into dust and used as
a fertilizer for the worn-out soils of the

I would see how it would taste cooked, so

had all the appearance of pork, and it tasted
delicious It was very sweet and tender.

Cattle Raising ON the Plains.
buffalo Conrier.1

The general manager of a successful cat
tie company says: 'Cattle raising is a
money making business if a man goes into
it properly, and knows whom he is dealing
with. No man should go into it independ-
emily and alone unless he has q capital of at
least $50, 900, and it would be well to have
double that amount. In five years he will
make himself quite wealthy. The only way for
a Imam of limited means to do, is to go into
stock company that he knows is reliable and
not organized by sharks. Our company has
a capital of $3.50, 200, and all of it has been
taken but $10,0o0 When we, first began, /
sold shares the amount of $1S0,G00 to four
men in less than half an hour.

ON the line of the Union Pacific road It is

5000 acres upon which hay is raised. We
cut 400 tons this last season, and in the
course of couple of years we shall have
from 1000 to 4, 900 tons Of course we can't
begin to use it all, but it is worth from $40
to $15 ton out there so that it is profitable.

should have no trouble with the government
we have gates at eve, mile stone, SO that
people can cross the land if they want to-
Of the entire acreage we own 35, 600 acres,
and that includes control t the water
privileges, SO that, while the remainder of
the land is subject to entry, no man wants
it unless he can secure irrigation, so he must

Specimen Legal Unpleasantness an Italy.
Pail Mall Gazette

Mediavalism is not yet quite extinct in
Italy; and occasionally the fine old stiletto
instinct asserts itself. An exquisite little in
stance has just occurred at Viterbo, near
Rome A Sicilian named Calvagno and
several of his accomplices were charged with
murder Some of them confessed their guilt;
but sympathetic jury acquitted all the
prisoners The president of the tribunal
naturally protested, coram publico, against
! the verdict, whereupOn mob broke into the
court intent upon little murder on its own
account, the object of its intentions being
the president and the public prosecutor A
convenient back door enabled both these
gentlemen to reach the railway station,
where they took the first train going any
where.
All this was only the beginning of a great
judicial scandal The president has accused
the prisoners counsel-each of whom is a
member of pa11iament-of having bribed
the jury, and the municipality of Viterbo,
which takes paternal interest in the wei
fare of the murderers has retaliated by de-
manding the presidents dismissal. The
affair naturally causes great excitement in
Italy, the more SO that the proceedings
against Calvagno and his aecomplices have
already lasted over nine years. They have
engaged the attention of six different juries,
and the records of the case fill 120 volumes.
