Mr.. CARL SEIZURE is opposed to New
Mexicos admission as state. What he
does not know about New Mexico would
fill very large book. He can not do any
harm however. He has no influence with
any Republicans in the senate or house.
If New Mexico is not admitted it will not

A Grave In Maine.

In many parts of Maine are old grave
yards with stones fast crumbling away,
but non of greater general interest than
one near Hull's Cove, Eden, where a
small weather worn wooden cross marks
the last resting place of Barthelemy de
Gregoire and his wife Marie Therese.
Marie Therese was the granddaughter of
Antoine de 10 Motto Cadillac, q brilliant
French officer, who was at one time COM
mandant Of Mackinaw and Detroit and
governor Of Louisiana. To him was
granted by the French king, in 1888, the
Island of Mount Desert and a large part
of the mainland on Union river, His
granddaughter claimed his estate in sue
c%ession, in 1885, and the general court of
Massachusetts granted to her and her
heirs 6 10000 acres. For a time the family
lived at Hull's Cove. In 1899 they began
to sell off the estate until, at the time of
their death in 1910, not an acre remained.

The Art of Leaving.

Among the minor arts that add much
to the happiness of life is that of leaving
gracefully after you have paid a visit.
1t may seem a small thing. but it is real
ly q large one. Who does not know the
individual who rises to go and then
stands talking for an hour? And the
host and hostess feel that they mus
stand, even if they almost drop with ia
tiSac, and when the visitor is finally
gone they give a sigh of relief and sink
into their chairs. Pay your visit, say
what you have to say. and when you get
up to so do not linger by tho way. Do
not stand and talk and keep your host
ess standing. You have enjoyed your
visit, and so, probably, has she; go, then,
while the enjoyment lasts and do not
linger until it departs and she wishes you
would do the same. Some wise nan has
said that it is better to leave behind you
a wish for your company than a safety.
or words to that effect.
Men understand this better than wo-
men, and here comes in the advantage
of q business training again. They APP
preciate the value of time more than
women do, and when they have finished
a call they go without the tedious linger-
ing and interchange of commonplace

Musical Bait.

Fish arc charged with being deaf and
dumb. But there are some fish that pipe,
others that grunt, and others still that drum
and whistle. An old legend says that fish
were caught in Egypt by singing to them,
and according to a Chinese proverb, "Fishes,
though little, have very long ears"
The author Of Music Of tho Waters' says
that on the Danube men hang little bells to
their nets to attract fish; in Japan fish are
summoned to dinner by gongs, and the
monks Of an abbey in Belgium whistle to
their carp when they wish to feed them.
But the most remarkable story Is that told
of an Italian savant, who uses u musical bait
to catch fish. The Gazctta del Popolo says:
"As we all know, tho sense of hearing is ex-
traordinarily developed in fish; it appears
that while the slightest noise scatters them
in all directions, a musical note, especially
that produced by the human voice, attracts
them; on hearing it they stop suddenly in
their course.
"Signor Saretti, having discovered this
fact, embarked one morning Oh the Lake of
Geneva with n party of friends. He pos
sessed a fine, deep bass voice, and striking up
n national song he proved to his astonished
companions the truth Of his assertions.
"They were able, by means Of an aqua
scope, to perceive the cagerness with which
the piscine population gathered around the
little boat. Then, casting their nets, they
instantly made such u catch as has rarely, il
ever, been known on the lake; they might be
said, indeed, to AVE taken another miracu.

Cuusn of Wakcfnlness.

The primary cause of wakefulness is an in

Die of inducing this state of the cerebral cir
c~ulation may give rise to it. Asthese causes
are more or less under the control of the in

generally known. Flrst-Excessive md long
continued intellectual action or powerful
mental emotions. Second-Those positions of
the body which tend to impede the flow of
blood from the brain and at the same time
do not obstruct its passage to the brain.
Many physicians have noticed tho conncc-
ton existing between bodily position and
wakefulness. 1t is evident that the recum-
bent position is more conducive to Il state of
congestion Of the brain than the erect or
scnli-crcct. DR.. Forbes Winslow, DR.. Ham
mond and other physicians have noticed an
increase in the number and intensity of hal
fluctuations of insane patients, or persons suf-
iering from delirium trcmens, as soon as
they assume the recumbent position. These
patients nave been found to sleep quietly for

An Anecdote of Bottesini.

One adventure of dead Bottesini's
should be remembered. He was playing
night at Antwerp, and there was a
full room, and considerable curiosity for
his turn to begin. He took his place
beside his colossal double bass, and COM
menced his variations. Tho public were
e~lectrified-and SO was the player. No
one who knows the double bass could
say of the instrument that it was squeaky
and shrieky. 1t has its faults. but at
least shrillness is not n of them. The
sounds camo forth that evening piercing
and pathetic. The player looked terri
fed; his instrument seemed bewitched,
and the sounds continued even when
the bow was not drawn across the
strings. For a moment Bottesini fall
tered, and then plunging his hand into
the internal cavities of his big instru-
ment, he drew it back very hurriedlv.
He introduced it again very carefully
and took out and held up to tho room
cat. The entertainment did not end
there. There were kittens to follow

Gloves of unman Skin.

''Gloves which are sold as kid are often
made of human skim" said DIR. Mark L.
Nardyz, the Greek physician, yesterday.
1.-The skin on the breast" continued the
physician, sis soft and pliable, and may
be used in the making of gloves. When
people buy gloves they never stop to ques-
ton about the material of which they are
made. The shopkeeper himself may be
in ignorance, and the purchaser has no
means of a%scertaining whether the ma
terial is human skin or not. The fact is,
the tanning of human skin is extensively
carried on in France and Switzerland.
The product is manufactured into gloves,
and these are importedin into this country.
Thus, you see, a person may be wearing
part of q distant relatives body and not
know it,"
Then the doctor drew from a drawer a
brand new pair of black gloves. "There,"
he said, sis a fine article made from the
skin of a child. AS the hide of a kid
compares with that of a goat. so, of
course, does the skin of a child compare
with that of an adult, and it is much
sought in France for glove purposes

Strawberries ON Toast.

An ex-officer of the British army. who
has spent many years in India and At
RIGA, came to New York and is striving
hard to learn how people in this city act.
He finds a great deal to amuse him in the
way food is served in the restaurants,
and his friends usually enjoy a hearty
laugh when he takes dinner with them,
as he seldom fails to see something about
which to make some quaint remark in
expressing his establishment. A few days
ago this loyal Briton was, as usual, eat
ing dinner, charging upon the superior
ity of things English as compared with
what he had seen here, when, the more
substantial viands having been con-
sumed, n of the party ordered straw
berry shortcake for dessert. The waiter
filled the order about as promptly as is
usual in down town restaurants, and the
captain viewed the dish with surprise.
lie seemed unable to comprehend it at
first, but before the delicacy had been
eaten he seemed to have solved the prob
lem. Then he surprised those around
him by exclaiming: "By Jove! that must
be nice! Strawberries on toast is queer
dish. though."-New York Tribune.
