FRANCE.
An Army Officer Unbosoms His Wrath to His
Soldiers.


PARIS, Feb. S.-Journal des Debats
publishes an article expressing approval
at the action of the authorities in order
ing an inquiry regarding the issue of an
order of the day by Col. Senat, COM
mander of the Nineteenth regiment of
infantry, commenting III severe terms
upon the German passport regulations.
Col. Senat s order was issued in conse-
quence of the refusal of the
Germans to allow a surgeon of his
regiment to go TO Strasburg to see his
mother who was dying. Journal des
Debats says there eau only be one
opinion of the action of the German
officials in the matter and that is that
they failed to show any humanity 1t also
says, even a portion Of the German press
has condemned the frontier regulations,
but it is impossible to allow a colonel of the
French army to discuss such a matter in
an order of the day. 1t is important that
Col. Senat should not be allowed to es-
tablish such precedent.

A Terrapin's Beseeching Eve

David Burnham, living in a near by
town in New Jersey, is exceedingly fond
of terrapin stew, but he does not think
much of the savory "dismond back F" in
L.1any other form. Nevertheless pet ter.
f~rapin that some months ago almost
miraculously escaped the pot wanders
around the plot of ground on which hii
house stands and sleeps in his kitchen
every night.
Las October Mr.. Burnham invited
some friends to supper, served to cele-
brate the fifth anniversary OF his we'd
ding. For six dollars he purchased in
Fulton Market five pound terrapin, in
tending to regale his friends with his
favorite dish. He left orders that the
terrapin should be sent by express to his
house, and supposed that it would be de-
livered in condition better understood
by the cook than the butcher. But the
little creature was by no means in the
soup yet, and when it was laid down for
moment with its light side uppermost
in the kitchen it proved that it was
keenly alive to the situation by waddling
ut its highest rate of speed toward the
door.
! 1t was then turned on its back, and the
cook was invited to slaughter it. Blu
this she emphatically refused to do, and
as the other servants shared her objec-
tions Mr.. Burnham nerved himself to do
the butcher work himself Armed
with the family carving knife he en-
tered the kitchen when the rest of the
household had retired for the night. He
says that he knelt down upon the floor
\ and was about to slit the terrapin' s throat
when the succulent creature, lying on its
diamond back, gazed at his face with
such human, beseeching expression in
its mild, bullying eyes that the knife
dropped from his hand, and he deter
mined to spare its life.
The terrapin has shown itself grateful,
but not demonstratively so, for the
mercy extended to it. When Mr.. Burn
ham approaches its usual resting place,
under great chestnut tree, it croaks
cheerfully, and slowly moves to meet
him. 1t will take piece of bruised and
softened meat, small fish, or even a
piece of water-soaked bread from his
hand, but its appetite is not large, and il
sleeps most of the time. 1t is growing
--fat rapidly, and swells beyond its shell
with posterior and an anterior
plethora-at least so Mr.. Burnham says,
and he has studied DR.. Johnson's mode
of expression pretty closely. 1t does not
fear the cold, being warmly clad.-Neac

Wartime Lovers Just Married.

Captain Charles Reese, of Charleston,
s. c., and Miss Mary Frances Grady,
each somewhat past the meridian of life,
met years ago. The other afternoon they
met for the second time at the Union
depot by arrangement, and two hours
later they were married, says the Kansas
City Jou5 ndt.
Captain Reese was guard at Libby
prison during the Civil War. Miss Ora
dy's brother, lieutenant in the Confed-
craze service, was eese's mesSmate, and
died away from his home and under his
care. liver since then Captain Beese and
Miss Grady have constantly CORE
sponded, meeting but once during the
twenty-five years intervening. By cor
respondence they agreed to meet at the
Union depot in this city and be married.
The other afternoon Captain Reese
strolled to aud fro on the MON depot
platform seeking Miss Grady in the
crowd. Suddenly rather plump but
very pleasant looking woman hurried up
to him and said:
''Isn't this Captain Reesef'
"ies," he replied, ''but who are
why, it's Miss Grady, isn't it'll"
He had his marriage license with him,
and together they proceeded to the near
est Justice, where they were married.
The couple will probably reside ir the
| future in Cay County, where the Low
Mrs. Reese is the owner of an extensive
farm.
Captain Reese was wounded several
times in the Confederate service, and wss
on the Alabama when it was sunk off the
7osst of France.

Mourning In COrea.

Mourning in Corea is a most burden
some duty. When father dies, for in
stance, the sons must dress themselves
in suit of sackcloth, with rope girdle
about the waist. On the head is worn
an enormous hat, about the size of a
rain umbrella, and made of basket work.
This hides the whole upper portion of
the body, and for further protection
against obtrusion the mourner carries a
large fan before his face. 1t was in this
disguise that the Jesuits were enabled to
enter the country and carry on their
work. They have but recently laid it
aside. Even the pipe is wrapped with
white paper, and white shoes are worn.
The mourner is not expected to do any
work, but at stated times he has duties
to perform at his ancestors tomb. All
this is very bard for some to bear, as the
whole resources of a fairly prosperous
family may thus be exhausted. In the
case of useful officials whom the King
cannot spare from duty, the period Of
mourning may be shortened by royal de.
cree.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Rats as Chicken Destroyers.

Last summer, writes correspondent
of the New York World, l had an I'M
fortunate experience with rats among
my young chickens, and as it was some
time before l discovered the real cause
of my losses, which had all along
charged to cats, it may be of interest to
Others to state it. The first intimation
was given by some children telling me
they saw rat dragging one of my chick
ems through the grass outside of the
chicken yard. then put the good ma
tured hen that was acting as mother to
twenty of them in deep manger in the
COW stable and covered it with witt net
ting, where they were undisturbed for
couple of weeks, when one morning l
discovered all but seven were gone. A
larger vent hole up through the bottom
showed where they had gone to. Subse-
quently l put thirty small chickens with
IN artificial brooder in a 6xl0-foot
chicken house, supposed to be rat proof,
with the door opening into small,
tightly inclosed yard, where they could
run in the day time. One afternoon l
was again astonished to find more than
half Of them missing. This time [
caught sight of the rat. He had gnawed
up from the ground through one of the
nest boxes ranged along the floor on one
side of the house. This fellow l caught
the same day in steel trap, but could
not catch another. | got rid of them at
last by poisoning them, What seemed
singular is, that during all this time,
while there was plenty of grain within
their reach, l saw no signs of rats until |
began to miss the chickens

The Australasian Wool Product.

The wool-producing industry of the
Australasian colonies is one which is
steadily growing in importance. The
total number Of sheep in the whole of
these colonies on the 31st of March,
1888, was SO, 462, 03s. Of this number
almost one-half were found in New
South Wales. The totals for each colony
are as follows New South Wales, 49,

Queensland, 1926, 15S; Victoria, TO-

West Australia, 1909, 94t; Tasmania,

pares with total of rs, sSs, 7fO in 1885.
For purposes of comparison, we may give
the number of sheep in some other
countries. For the Argentine Republic
the figures in 1885 were Is, coo, 600; in
European Russia, excluding Poland,
there were in 1883 estimated to be 49,
/ 72i, 736 sheep; in the United States in

Feeding Straw for Warmth

Though the nutritive value Of straw is
small, it has its uses for feeding, and is
more thought of as farmers learn the
best means for correcting its deficiencies.
For supplying carbon its has a consider
able value. Try it in stove and it will,
weight for weight, give out more heat
than clover hay, which will apparently
become compact and smother It's own
flame. The reason is because the clover
gives out nitrogen, and this with carbon
ic acid gas puts out the fame just as
would result in burning hair, feathers or
the lean flesh of animals. Fat will burn
to cinder because it is nearly pure car
bon. In feeding straw, enough highly
heterogeneous food must also be given,
and in such combination the straw will
be found much more valuable than it is
often supposed to be.-Boston Cultirator.
