Gen. McCook's Gun.

A number of army officers who like
to go a-gunning were recently talking
at the war department about the pros
poets for sport. The conversation
naturally drifted into discussion of
guns and from thence to the kicking
qualities of some king of guns. This
brought out few remarks from Col.
Barr of the judge advocates corps.
The worst case of kicking gun that
F.. l ever heard Of" he said, .swas that
which Gen. McCook of the army used
to tell when he was on duty at the de-
partment here or member of Gen
Sherman's staff. McCook is an Ohio
man and spent his boyhood on an Ohio
farm. When he was about Is years of
age he worried his father SO much for
a gun that finally the old gentleman
purchased one for him. 1t was heavy,
old-fashined, single-barreled concern,
and to all appearance was innocuous
But it was another case of appearances
being deceitful. The gun was not in
nocuous. 1t was decidedly recalci-
trant. But McCook kept a-shooting
her. His shoulder was consequently
always out of condition. The right
side of his face was as West Point
plebe, and his right ear hung on by a
small isthmus of flesh. McCook would
tell you about the gun by the hour. if
you would listen to him. But he
reached the height of his realistic re-
counting when he would explain how
the blamed old thing would kick him
over rail fence when he fired it and
then kick at him through the rails"
When Col. Barr thus finished the group
of officers one by one stole away, and
not one of them was saving word.

A Novel Refrigerator.

A young friend of mine, who has for
several years each summer gone with
his father on camping trip on the
south shore of Lake Superior, tells me
of novel eNpedient they often en-
ployed for preserving their venison in
warm weather. In that country some
of the streams are tlanked by long rows
of sandhills, whose composition is SO
loose that they shift about continually
under wind of any force. In the win
ter time the high winds often blow the
sand over the great snow banks which
lie upon the north side of the sand
dunes, covering up the snow to depth
of several feet. The snow is thus kept
unmelted, and even in the middle of
summer one can dig down through the
sand to it and find the best imaginable
sort of natural refrigerator In this
way, said my young friend, they buried
their deeI and trout, and found they
Kept entirely fresh SO long as they cared
to leave them. This is certainly new
instance of natures hountifulness with
the spaStsmaR,- ,-Fagsss ard 6syeaRa, !.

The Village Big Man.

While travelling did you ever notice
the advent into the train of the village
big manP asks the Cincinnati Times
Star. Every town has its big man
not generally more than one. That is,
there is no other man who approaches
near in Importance the certain big man.
He is most always a lawyer, occasional
ly a doctor. But about his entering a
car: The big man has several modes of
communicating the fact of his presence.
Generally it is with his nose. Some
times resounding hawk" stamp of
cane. or the tremendously loud and
solemn tones of his voice. in making the
simplest, most threadbare expression.
Mostly, however his nose it is which
gives no uncertain sound, and by which
all are made aware of the presence OF
an individual of note.
He is immovable and silent, save an
occasional blast, as a wayside tree. He
poses in the whole seat with graceful
majesty, that comes of long years of
constant, diligent practice. By and by
the city is reached. Big man uncon-
sciously reveals an almost impercepti-
BILE interest and even anxiety. Begins
half to realize that he is out of his
depths in this great massing of huge
buildings and with no familiarity awed
country neighbor's countenance in
sight. Lo, his stupendous air of i'm
portance is at swift ebb. And as he
alights from the car and walks off in
the crowd, his is all the appearance of
mingled curiosity, mistrust and gener-
al wide-eyed verdancy of the veriest

The Mystery of Material.

Why is it that when you undertake to
buy pair of shoes made of something
besides fragments of paper boxes and
old boots fished out of the gutter, or a
suit of clothes not manufactured ex-
clusively of undisinfected rags, you
have to pay three prices for them, be-
cause 1.-The material costs so much;
but that small size of either costs
about as much as large size, because
1.-The difference in material doesn't
amount to much-it's all in the workP"

Catching Cats.

HOW THEY ARE UTILIZED IN THE PROMOTION OF

lis vivlsection practiced to any great extent
in Baltimore institutions of learning?" a re-
porter inquired of a specialized professor of
sciences.
A stout, roughly-dressed young man had
just been seen in the hallway with bag on his
shoulder. From the bag came sundry mourn
full wailing feline voices, and the young mans
air was business-like. The professor saw him.
too. and STIMULATING that no names should be
mentioned, he answered the reporters query.
''Vivisection may seem cruel, but at times it
becomes necessary to aid the advance of
science. Dissecting living body under the
influence of an anesthetic causes no pain
Cats, rabbits and even rats are used, and are
generally purchased from few young men,
who make it part of their business at any rate
to supply them. A cat is a good subject and
probably more used than any other animal
No, l cannot tell you what institutions use
them, but 1 can say that there are several
places where the searcher after scientific
knowledge can practice vivisection."

How Ladies Play Cards.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
Ladies will play cards. I wonder, really, if
they mean to cheat. l don't think they do I
think they have an idea that it is wrong and
wicked and unprincipled to play cards, and
that there can't be anything wrong in getting
the best of their opponents. 1t would not do
for woman to play cards with experts for
money. She is apt to forget at times the neces-
sity for keeping her hand to herself. You'll see
her take up her cards and count with her finger
the number of each suit she has; she'll lay her
hand down, face up, to take out her handker-
chief or fix her bang or arrange her back hair,
and then she'll pick the cards up and hold them
close to her nose SO that nobody can see, when
they've been exposed in her lap or on the table
for minute. They quite often make mistakes
that are of no use to them. There was quiet
family whist party up town. There were two
ladies and two gentlemen, and each gentleman
had lady for a partner. They had played
nine tricks, and on the tenth one of the ladies
who had to play stopped and looked down all
over the floor, got up and shook her dress.
We'll, where is my ace of trumps?" The other
lady had it and was just going to play it. 1t
turned out she had four cards in her hand.
and. the ace having been turned up, she had
absorbed it. But the one who turned it up
never noticed that it had gone until they were
nearly all out

AstrOlOgy for January.
From Zadkiel.

The martial star of Old England, which has
been dimmed for SO long past, now begins to
shine with its unwonted luster again, SO that
energy and patience of her children will soon
be rewarded. The solar eclipse of the first day
of the month will be visible in North America;
we shall soon hear of trouble in some of the
northwestern states, and earthquake shocks
about the 9th degree of west latitude The
Central Pacific railway will meet with some
misfortune. The partial eclipse of the moon.
partly visible here on the 18th inst, will be
quickly followed by excitement and temporary
depression on change. News from Russia will
be warlike. albeit the internal state of that
country will interfere with the ambitious
projects of the military and the Slav parties.
Persons who were born on either the LIST or 18th
of January in either 1913. 1914 1921, 1924, 1927,
1929, 1885, 1S43, 1914, 1851, 1853, 1857, 1858,
or 1868, will now suffer either illness or mis-
fortune, and should take precautions accord
ingly. The 2Sth is fortunate birthday ami
versary, especially for those who had the moon

Drunkenness Among Children.

From the London Lancet
According to recent intelligence the school
board OF Vienna is placed in painful position
with regard to some of the school children.
1t appears that it is not uncommon for the
children OF poor parents to receive by way of
breakfast nothing more than glass of spirits.
and even to appear in the school-room drunk
Instances OF juvenile indulgence might be
found in any country and possibly in every
open prevalence of vicious custom among
the very youngest is, however, to most of us a
new and startling revelation Ones first inn
pulse on having the facts thus presented is to
conclude that they have been magnified by
rumor. This hopeful view of the case ia but
natural. At the same time it is hardly posi-
BILE to suppose that the interference of the au-
thorltles Is not actuated by proved necessity
for their action. II this be the case the
question arises: What means are best calcu-
habit at its root2 To prevent the sale of
drink to young children is a cardinal prin-
clpie In our own by no means oppressive
liquor law. 1t is measure worthy of introduce
tlon into other Codes and we may look to its
operation, If applied, for some abatement of
TINS most unnatural form of excess. ANY law
OF this kind, however, can only partially con-
troll the circumstances Of these viennese chill
dren. Here the parent is the chief offender,
ana the morning dole Of spirits is given as
substitute for food. 1t would be very difficult
Tor any government to stamp out this practice
by repressive edicts, and better result NAV
probably be expected from the judicious efforts
OF the school board, armed with necessary
powers: In all such cases, however, it viii be
Ionnd that the introduction Of the cheap loaf
sympathetic interest on the part of the rich in
the needs and struggles Of the poor, win do
more than twenty laws to bring about the
desired reform.
