The Unknown God.

A peculiar document was filed in
Brooklyn recently. 1t was the will
OF Reuben M. Potter half century
ago prominent in literary circles. The
testator says: II give back my soul
to the mysterious source of life and
mind from which it came, and my
body to the elements from which it
is derived. die in the faith of the
Unknown God, of whom Saul of
Tarsus knew as little as do; but /
believe that the creative powers re-
fer to, whether properly speaking an
element with personal attributes or
personality with elementary quail
ties, is the great mind from which
earthly mind emanates, and the
source of the law of nature and devel-
opment, and, whether individual OF
not is the head spring of the vast
flood in individuality which flows
through creation" He also directed
that simple white marble shaft
should be erected over his remains,
and that it should bear this inscrip-
ton: "Heed thou who yet livest.
Give thy body to the living and leave
the dead in devout trust to the IN
known God, till thou, too, shall hope
fully fold thy hands with the silent
multitude.

fishing in Florida.

Carl Michael the only professional
:atfsherin the state, reports business
brisk and a good demand. He is
catching 400 pounds per day of this
toothsome delicacy, and sells all he
gets to city dealers, who ship the
meat to northern hotels, where it is
served up as bass and sheepshead to
the unsuspecting guest. He strings
ropes between thepilings along under
the docks, and on them attaches his
hooks with short lines about four
feet apart like a trawl line. He visits
them with a boat every day and re-
moves the captures, getting one cent
q pound from the dealer. The r.
and fms are cut off before 8.
thus removing suspicion as
humble and loWly natures. FsorsusS =,
resources are as yet almost unknown,

Rats in England.

Theplague ofrats reported in some
portions of England continues to be
as bad as ever, and all sorts of plans
are, tried for getting rid of the ro-
dents. News also comes from the Lac
cadive islands of similar experience,
the rats having destroyed the cocoa
nut plantations and reduced the in
habitants to restitution. the plaster

After eating it the rats become thirs-

drunk the water hardens the plaster

How She Behaved.

HOW she B0naV0Q.
The negro makes us laugh because
he will say things which he should
have left unsaid, and say them with
out the least intention of giving Of
tense. An admirable illustration of
this sort of humor is given in Har.
per's. Briefly told it is as follows:
Samson, the colored janitor of al
apartment house in which Mr.. and
Mrs. Robinson occupy fat, is not
treated by their Irish cook with the
Difference which he thinks due to his
position.
One morning when. at the going up
and down of the coal scuttle, Samson
had been W orsted in a wordy encount-
er, his wounded dignity could stand
it mo longer. Stopping Mr.. Robinson
on the front stairs, he complained to
him of his sharp tongued servant.
What Samson wished to say was
that the girl assumed as much au-
thority as ifshe were one of the ladies
of the house. What he did say was
this:
"Mr. Robinson, that girl of yours
has ordered me round, an yelled at
me down the elevator shaft, an
blowed me an, jawed me until you'd
have thought it was Mrs. Robinson
herself"

The Okeefinokee Swamp Sold

The great Okeefnokee swamp prop
erty in south Georgia, heretofore
owned by the state, was sold March
IL to syndicate for 26k cents per
acre. Under an act providing for the
sale, purchasers must take the entire
swamp, the acreage being determined
by a survey to be made at once. 1t
is estimated that there are 100000
acres there. For years this property
has brought no revenue to the state.
Three or four times the state has
given it away, but each time it was
refused with Observation-Disclosures
