Searching Ont Word Meanings.

A work which is expected to revolution
ize the system of dictionary making at
present in vogue is just being published at
Paris by Delagrave-the "Dictionnaire
Generate de Ia Langue Francois" OF which
the late Professor Arsene Darmesteter, Of
the College de France. and Professor Hatz-
field are the authors. It represents the first
attempt in any language to trace the his
tOrical development of the various mean
ings Of words and to reduce them to one or
two primitive Specifications. The word

complete pedigree, the new dictionary
showing that it was applied originally TO
particular species Of wooden stuff named

A new telephone has been brought ont
IN England, the characteristic point OF
which is the mouthpiece. The particular
advantage claimed by the inventors Of
this mouthpiece Is that it intensifes the
sound waves. and thus renders it possible
10 carry on conversation in an ordinary
tone Of voice. The mOuthpiece Is simply
a trunCated cone. which Is clamped on 70
the telephone. BY using an india rubber
ring be>ween the mouthpiece and the
telephone any escape Of sounds entirely
prevented. The cone Is double. the outer
cone being perforated with holes, the
Idea being that the vibrations caused BY
the sound waves on The interior cone
have full freedom and are entirely pro
tected from contact with external sub
stances.-New York Telegram

When Royalty Travel. in Japan.

There has existed in Japan for many
centuries curious law to the effect that
whenever the emperor or empress ap-
pea-ed in public no other person should
seem to occupy a higher place than this
member of the royal family; therefore
on such occasions the shutters of all up
per stories were drawn, and the upper
parts of the houses through which the
royal party moved were seemingly de-
serted. This law is still in effect. Three
months ago, when the empress went into
the country for brief period, an elab-
crate announcement was posted in con-
spicuous places along the line of her con-
templated route commanding the public
to observe strictly certain requirements
of etiquette, TO wit:
When her majesty shall pass along no
one must look at her from the frame
built on houses for the drying of clothes,
or through cracks in doors. or from any
position in the upper part of their houses.
If anybody wishes 10 see her majesty
he or she must sit down at the side of
the road by which her majesty will pass
All children must be taken particular
care of that they do not play in the road
and 50 obstruct the passage of her ma
jesty through the streets.
No one must look at her majesty with
out taking off his hat, neckcloth or
turban, or whatever else he may be
wearing on his head. Moreover, no one
must be smoking while he or she Is look
ing at her majesty, nor must any one
carry a stick or cane. Only women
wearing the clothes of foreigners viii be
permitted to retain their head covering.
Although it may rain, no person will
be allowed to put up an umbrella while
her majesty may be passing.
Dogs must not be allowed to wander
on to the road by which her majesty will
pass.
Until the passage of her majesty, the
route by which she viii come will be
kept free from all carriages and jinri-
kashas. The roads which she will take
must be completely free from all traffic.
As her majesty passes, no one must
raise his voice, nor must any sound be
heard. nor must the crowd close in ana
follow her carriage, for no noise must be
made. When her majesty reaches Umeda
station there will be discharge of fifty
fireworks. Eugene Field in Chicago

One by One the Idols Are Falling.

The papers have been full of para
graphs about Edward Grubb, 'the Bris-
toll Centenarian," who is described as
having died at the age of 100. Grubb
was not centenarian, FOR, according to
his own account, he was living at Kings
land, where he was born, when the
battle of Waterloo was fought, and yet
he went to settle in London ''three OF
four years before he was 90" 1t is clear,
therefore, that. as only seventy-fve years
have passed since Waterloo, Grubb can
not have been more than 90 when he
died.
A still moro conclusive proof is af
forded by the tombstone over his fathers
grave in the churchyard at Kingsland,
which records that he died in 1903, at
the age of "a; so that if Grubb was a
centenarian he was born whenhis father
was 16 years old, and IL he was 100 he
must have been born when his father
was years old, II would be Just as

Obstacles to Civilization in Africa.

The secret Of Africa's isolation from the
benefits and blessings of civilization and
light that have fallen on the rest of the
world is TO be found in the cataracts Of
her big rivers and in a lesser degree to the
inhospitablenesS Of the climate. The cat
sracts of the Congo, the Niger and the
ZambeZi, however, and the cataracts and

Catcher w. 7. Krieg.

W. F. Krieg, the popular catcher of the
Milwaukee baseball club, was born at Day
ton, O., thirty years ago. He is 5 it. 10 in.
in height and weighs 195 pounds. His
first professional engagement was as
catcher with the Peoria team of the Illinois
league in 1882. The management was so
well pleased with his excellent work that
he was engaged for the following season,
and his play during these two seasons was
of a very high order. In 1854 he trans
ferred his services to the Chicago Union
Baseball association, for which he caught
daily throughout the entire season. His
clever one arm work was greatly admired
and gained for him national reputation.
He signed with the Brooklyn asso-
citation the next year and was well up in
the general averages at the end of the sea-
son. In the following year he filed the
dual role of captain and manager of the
Hartford nine with highly satisfactory re-
suits.
In 1887 he was with the Washington
league and Minneapolis association teams.
In 1855 he signed with the Kansas City
Blues, of the Western association, and he
has remained a member of that association

the old fashioned coffee houses, of which
we have read so much in connection with
Pope, Addison, Steele, Dryden, Fox, DR..
Johnson, Goldsmith and others, live only
in tradition. the English, from the coffee
point of view. have rather fallen into bad
ways, and tea has been permitted to out
strip the Arabian berry in their affections.
In colonial times and the early days of the
republic New York had its Burns coffee
house, Merchants coffee house, on the cor
ner of Wall and Water streets, the Tontine
coffee house, Brownies coffee house, in
Water street, and other places of the kind,
where Irving, PauldinE, the Astors and
old merchants of the city were wont to
assemble. But these institutions have
all long since passed from memory, and
even their histories have been Obliterated.
People now drink their coffee if not at
home in the restaurants and dining rooms,

the chance Of accidents at the start and
gives the horses a long stretch in which to

half mile track the first curve comes so
soon after the start that collisions between
the nervous horses at the first quarter are
of frequent occurrence. One of the great
est drawbacks to the kite shaped track is
that no race longer than a mile can be
trotted upon it.

Somebody living in Colombo, Ceylon, has

has attacked the plant and is gradually
killing it, and that the planters in Ceylon,
seeing the berries die. have found substi-

creased rapidly from $1,000 pounds per year

OF Interest to S%hcep.men.

Prof. Robertson, of Guelph, Ont,
Canada, Agricultural College, says re-
garding proper ways of sailing stock:
g Dairy cattle should have access to
salt every day. A series of expert
ments has convinced me that when
COWS are denied salt for a period of
even one week, they will yield from
l41z to l7H per cent, less milk, and
that of an inferior quality. Such
milk will, on an average, turn sour in
twenty-four hours less time than
milk drawn from the same or similar
COWS receiving salt every day, all
other conditions of treatment being
equal"
1t is not generally known that the
use of common loose salt for Horses,
Cattle, Sheep, and Hogs, is injurious
to them, but such, however is the
fact. Their nature requires only 50
much salt as will be absorbed by the
saliva. BY the ordinary method of
sailing, more or less of the loose salt
is carried undissolvel into the stom-
aci,. causing irritation to the men,
branes and coating. In many we'll
authenticated instances the death of
Sheep, and attacks of collie and other
difficulties in Horses and Cows have
been traced to this cause. 1t is very
desirable therefore that some method
Of salting Stock be employed.
The most suitable form of salt for
this purpose is furnished by nature in
the Rock or Mineral Salt, and the
best possible method of supplying the
to Stock is to place humps Of it in tit
managers and other places where II
can be easily reached when require
by them.
