FLOCGED INTO A FORTUNE.

A San Francisco correspondent
gives sketch Of the experience Of
one John James Mage. . quiet, mid
dle.aged man, who is in that city
waiting for the Mexican steamer to
sail. In brief, this man was, fifteen
years ago, a poor English collector
Of insects in Guatemala and also
acted as . British vice-consul at
San Jose. One day Conmandante
Gonzales ordered Mayo to appear
before him. Incensed at the reply
that he would come i'm short time.
the commandante, who was drunk,
sent file of soldiers, Ia d the insect
collector brought before him and or
dered seventy-five lashes laid on his
bare back. This was thoroughly
done, when the bold commandante
yelled out, "give him twenty-five
more for luck.''
In the end it was not so very lucky
for Guatemala. Mage was laid up
for some time from the brutal beat
ing he had received. On recovering
he made formal complaint to his
government. That government has
always been noted for promptness
in protecting her citizens, in what
ever part Of the world they may be.
So Guatemala was ordered to pun
ish Gonzales and to pay Mage $500
for every lash he received, on PEN
atty Of having the English cruisers
shell San Jose and other coast cities.
Gonzales was promptly punished but
Guatemala tried to get released
from the payment Of the $4,000 to
Mago. This didn't nesr succeed,
and SO the poor bug collector was
made rich in one day. The lash
sscut him . starter" and his wealth
is now estimated at s.; 900, 900.

scattered the mass all over the field.
1t took about ten darkies to pick

Vaudeville ITEMS.

NlANDEvILI.Es lee. I-s 1909.
EDITOR ST. TAxMAxY FARxKI:
For the past few days We have
been ''scoring" spring weather, and
your correspondent, not being .
''base" ball player, sticks to what
he said with regard to the State
Land Sales.
Our town is having . perfect
boom. Mr.. p. Pochelu has bought
from Father Aveilhe the MOntplai-
ser place, and has . score Of men
at work repairing and clearing it
up. He intends to make q perfect
Eden Of it. All over town you can
hear the noise Of the hammer and
saw, and in front Of town every
property holder has men engaged
in planting live aud pin oaks, to EN-
bellish their residences.
1t was with pleasure that We were
allowed to peruse q very compli-
mentary letter addressed to our
Observer, Hon. Alex. Band, from
K. +. kerkam, Signal Corps Di-
rector, Of New Orleans, eulogizing
him for the promptness displayed
and the interest he manifests in
making such excellent reports. The
November report was exceptionally
meritOriOus. In Louisiana there
are over 100 stations, and only IA
were eulogized by the Signal Blu
reau, and We are proud to see that
the Vaudeville Station is one Of
them.
The Vaudeville Yacht Club are
stirring up matters. At the ir meet
ing of Dec. 10th, 81 members were
registered, and in their proceed
ings they appointed the following
named gents as honorary members:
Judge Jas. NJ. Thompson, Hon. j.
s. BOssier, w. G. kentzel, Jas. H.
HOsmer, w. b. Cook, c. S. Gal
braith, Col. Geo. Moorman, DIR. A.
Owens, Capts. Win. Hanover and
Eliza, Miller. They also invite all
yachtmen Of our parish to come for
ward and join the Club.
Our city fathers have put
another new feather in their cap
a powdered" one-in trying
to enforce an ordinance to prevent
the shooting Of fire arms within the
limits of our timbered town. They
might get the thanks Of . few ''Old
maids" but alas! how many votes
will they loose by their inconsiderate
action?
1t was with pleasure that we saw
the smiling face of Miss Eugene
Mugnier at the Crescent Hall to-
day. She had been Oh . weeks
visit to friends in the city.
Our stores are all very busy. Ri
bava is Over-stOcked; piggy"
with Alex. and Willie, are busy
fixing up q Christmas tree; ''Pe-
tiers" is getting gray in pressing
moss Depre Bros. are gluing up
All Internal grabbing box, and Levy

INTERESTING GEOGRAPHICAL
COMPARISONS,

men We IcSEu ITOIu ASTRONOMERS
that the sun is twice as large in cir
conference as the circle made by
the moon in passing around the
earth, we are inclined to draw q
long breath; yet We have on "dry
land" and by actual measurement,
some comparisons of sizes. which
are, to say the least, quite interest
ing.
Asia is more than four times as
large as Europe, and considerably
larger than North and South Ameri-
ca together. The United States and
Europe are near equal in area. British
India is more than half as large as
the United States, and Canada is
nearly equal in area, including
Alaska. Ireland and Indiana are
about the same size. England and
Michigan are about the same size.
You could take enough land from
Texas to make England, Ireland
Scotland, Belgium, The Neither
lands, Switzerland and Denmark.
and still have enough left to make
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island, Com
necticut, New Hampshire, Vermont.
Delaware, New jersey, Maryland
and Indiana. California is the Sec
Ond largest State. Nebraska is
more than twice the size of Indiana.
The Island of Cuba and the State of
Tennessee are equal in area. Brazil
is nearly rs large as the United States
but the population Of the latter is
seven times that Of the former. If
all the people Of the United States
and Canada were placed in the
State Of Texas, the number of per-
sons to the square mile would be
fewer than at present in China.
Colorado is as large as New York,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey to-
gether. 1t would take ten States
as large as Massachusetts to make
q state rs large as Kansas. There
are twenty-seven States or Territor-
les each larger than New York.
Oregon is eqsal in area to New
York and Pennsylvania. Mas
sachusetts is smaller than either
New Hampshire or Vermont. Min
nesota is twice the size of Ohio.
The three States bordering on the
Pacific are larger than the thirteen
States bordering on the Atlantic.
Montana is thirty times larger than
Connecticut. Iowa is five times as
large Is Belgium and four times as
large as Denmark. Maryland and
are about the same size.
London is rs large as New York
City, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston,
and Cincinnati together. |
There are twice as many people to
the square mile in England as in
Rhode Island, the most densely pop
llated State in the Union. Japan
$ equal in area to Montana, and
more than half as many |
