No Evidence to the Contrary.

A young Catholic priest, shortly after
beginning his labors in his first parish,
received a visit from ons of the older
fathers. Anxious to show she progress
he had made he called up class in cate
chism for questioning.
"Biddy Maloney,' he began, stand
up"
A slip of a girl, with blue eyes and
brown freckles, arose in her place.
What, Biddy," said the young father,
sis meant by the howly state of matri-
mony?"
"Shure. began Biddy glbly, - tbs a
sayson Of tormint upon which the soul
inters to fit it fer the blissid state to
come"
Och" cried the questioner, angry and
mortified; ito the foot of the class wild
We, Bid " Maloney Its the m aiming of
purgatory ye're afther givin'."
But here the old priest interposed with
quizzical smile. Not too fast, me
young brother" he said restrainingly-
''not too fast Fer aught you and
know to the contrary the gurrul may
be perfectly right. Harper Magazine.

Feminine Qualities in Great Men.

Furthermore, l believe that in the
highest minds a certain intermixture of
this feminine element Of intuition with
the masculine element of pure reason is
always present. Great wits jump; that
is TO say, they are essentially intuitiye.
They see at a glance what plodders take
years and years to arrive at. There Is in
all genius, however virile, certain IN
dercuTTent Of the best feminine charac-
teristics ! am thinking now not merely
Of the Raphsels, the Shelleys and the
MendelsSohns but also even Of the New.
tons. the GlGdstones and the Edisons.
They have in them something Of the
womanly, though not of the womanish.
In one word, the man of genius is com
prehensively human. As ne always re-
suits from conveyance Of many fine
stocks upon a single point, so also. it
seems TO me, he often results from
union or conveyance OF male and female

4 TORPEDO sHQoTER's STORY.
The Things He Thought of During Q
Flight Through the Air.

The Things He Thought of During o
Flight Through the Air.
Not every day does one meet with a
man who has been blown seventy-fvs
feet through the air and lived to tell of it,
but such man is John McOeary, who
lives in a comfortable home in Green
point with his wife and two children,
and drives a custom house truck down
town for a living. He was at lunch
near by when one of the steam-heating
explosions at the corner of Broadway
and Fulton street took place, and 50 was
a reporter. The atmosphere was con-
1ucive to explosive story telling, and
MGCleary told of his experience TO an
interested group, and produced a number
Of newspaper clippings to verify the ex-
traOrdinary occurrence. One of them
was from the Eldred Penn. Eagle, and
it called McCleary the hero Of the nitro
glycerine explosion at Haymaker, Pa. :,
in 1880, and said that every stitch of
clothes had been stripped from his body
during his fight of seventy-fve feet
through the air.
McCleary explained that he was what
is known as a torpedo shooter. In de-
scribing his sensations he said: when
the explosion took place l was probably
twenty feet from the stuff l saw a
binding flash as if the world had sud
denly taken fire. l knew that made an
attempt to run from the derrick l felt
that had maybe minute to live, and
l remember resolving to occupy that
minute in running. All at once it seemed
to me as though III the attempt had
taken fearful leap, and that Twas going
downtown as one in dream. knew
intuitively that the explosion had taken
place, but 1 had not heard the report,
strange to say. Everything looked blue,
and 1 began to wonder if the explosion
had killed me and if | was dead. | cal
culated how many others were dead. l
could hear their widows crying and l
witnessed their funerals. l suppose it
took me ten seconds to be thrown to
where was found, but it seemed to be
ten years, and | had time to think of
thousand different things.
FINALLY l lost consciousness, and that
was when l struck the ground, l sup
pose. | was badly broken up, and finally
gave up shooting wells for good and
came to New York. No, now that I
realize the great risk, the hazardous life,
the almost daily danger of death, would
not go back to it again for a farm. -

The cattle receipts were liberal but were
mostly Texas, which were fed and wateTed
at the yards. They were not offered for
sale on this market The offerings today
were composed largely of native feeding
and stock steers, which found quick sale
at strong prices. There were few head
of fair butchers COWS and heifers on the
market, but not half enough TO supply the
actual demands of the buyers who are
wanting that kind of cattle in good grades.
There is also a good stocker and feeder
trade. The Chicago market was slow.
Kansas City steady on beeves and cows
steady to p cents lower. This market
closed strong.
The hog receipts were light again today
and the market weak and lower, 80 be-
ing the top on packing grades A small
bunch of heavies sold at S37754. Bulk OF
sales. however were made at s3.7O Both
BUYERS for the packing houses were on the
market. but there was little competition
on account Of the light supply OF hogs
The quality was only fair. There was
fair supply of heavy hogs, which sold at
top prices. Only a few pigs offered and
were active at S3.15
The Kansas City market closed weak,
with only light supply, and the Chicago
market was lower. The close here was
rather weak.

Travelling for the First Time.

A railroad engineer in Maine saw a
man on the track waving at him few
DAYS ago. and, his mind filed with the
possibilities Of impending danger. stopped
the train. Every one was IN high state
Of excitement, but the man cooly boarded
the smoking car without uttering word.
He looked Dc If he had not travelled far
from his native heath, and on being ques
toned said: Wal, just waved my hand
COS l wanted 70 get on the keers- I'm
going ter Wells, and never been on the

an unmistakable air of innocence. and
