Berlin Work to be Revived d.

People who are old enough to remem.
Der the Berlin work" that was fashion
able over twenty-five years ago may take
pleasure in learning that there is an
effort to revive the 'cross stitch" EN-.
broidery. One of the prettiest of the
modern specimens Of the work is a large
square lamp mat made of canvas filled
In with light blue silk cross stitch. Upon
each corner is worked with black silk in
the same stitch Chinese dragon. The
mat is edged with blue and gold passe.
menterie of the kind that has been used
for the past year or two for dress trim
mings.
Knitted and crocheted lamp mats are
quite endless in variety, and some of
them are exceedingly pretty. By adding
a border of crocheted lace to a plain
square of satin or velvet a very pretty
mat can be made. The lace should be
from two to three inches broad and Of a
light, open design. Itshould be made of
unbleached Barbour's fax thread and
sewed fatty on the material, not project
ing over the edge. The corners must be
laid over smoothly and the lace sewed
down at the top and bottom.

A CONTEST OF WITS.
How one New York Newspaper Man
Got Decidedly the Best of the Joke.


NEW YORK, April 3.-The newspaper
workers who frequent the Astor house
rotunda are having considerable amuse-
ment over a little skirmish of wit be-
tween two well known and popular
workers in the profession, who, for sake
of the story, may be called Jones and
Brown. Brown is veteran war CORE
spondent and editor of daily, and Jones
is well known special correspondent.
Mr.. Brown, while he is by no means q
violent Prohibitionist, is not what one
would call drinking man, and, though
he visits the rotunda, it annoys
him to have his name appear in
connection with constant revelry. Jones
found this out, and in the spirit of mis-
chief began to run paragraphs into his
various letters always mentioning Mr..
Brown in the same line with some well
known bar. Mr.. Brown retaliated
through his paper. But Jones para
graphs began to annoy Mr.. Browns
family, and that astute gentleman cast
about for some method by which to de-
prive them of their force One Saturday
afternoon he took his wife to a matinee,
and, like good husband, sat with her in
the box all through the play. After the
performance he strolled down Broad
way and met Jones.
''You were not in the Astor house this
afternoon, JONES'" said Brown, his face
beaming with innocence.
"No; who was therep' replied Jones.
sob, DR.. Norvin Green, ex. Mayor
Wickham, Alderman Gedney and lot
more. We sat there from 2 till 4, must
have opened a case of champagne and
had charming time" said Brown.
The next morning the paragraph APP
peared in Jones column with picturesque
embellishments. Mr.. Brown and the
case of wine were in close conjunction.
Mrs. Brown saw it at the breakfast
table; first she was grieved and then
puzzled.
"You were with me yesterday after
noon between and A, William" she said
From 10 to g." responded the gentle
William, promptly.
"But Mr.. Jones says you were in the
Astor house between and and were
drinking wine with lot of men," re-
marked Mrs. Brown, referring to the
paper.
"Oh, that's only one of Jones yarns
said Brown, carelessly; "you know was
with YOU"
Then a spirit of peace settled like a
white winged dove upon that household,
and Jones' paragraphs no longer annoy
the philosophic Brown. Domn to date
the joke is on Jones.

OLD TIME ToRNADoES.
Some Facts not much Known Ex'
cept to Scientists.

GREENcAsTLE, Ind, April 3.-If this
thing Of having towns knocked out of
existence in a few seconds, by unex-
pected blasts, is to go on indefinitely, we
may as well begin to study prophylactics
If such use of that word be allowable.
Unfortunately, we seem so far to have
only learned that tornadoes were once
common in this great valley, and that
they are likely to be common again; but
nothing in the line of prevention is Of
fered, "The wind bloweth where it list
eth," and as we cannot stop it there is
nothing for us but to rush to a "storm
pit" when the tornado comes-if it gives
us time.
But / set out to call attention to the
completeness with which we have Of late
years mapped out the tracks of ancient
tornadoes across this valley. If the tor
nado occurred no more than a century
ago, we can still trace its course with
tolerable accuracy wherever enough Of
the country remains in timber; for as the
trees were blown up by the roots they
left hole, and where the "root wad," as
we call it, crumbled down there re-
ma ned mound, and of course the
me ind was on that side of the hole to
which the wind was moving. Many
other signs show the track of former tor
nadoes.
Now tradition and all those signs agree
that about century ago a fearful tor
nado crossed these counties near the
Wabash, cutting swath nearly a mile
wide and finally terminating to the
northward Of this city in grand "swirl"
which twisted all the timber of large
area into one tangled mass. In the same
way the old tornadoes can be tracked
across Illinois and Missouri to their lair,
if one may say SO, in northeastern Kan
sas. And the painful fact is forced upon
us that there is a sort of "cyclone GEN.
ter" in that part Of the Missouri valley.
The principal fact to which I would
call attention here is that the tornado Of
the west has regular rise and fall. It
appears to strike the earth glancing
blow-at an acute angle-and then
bounce off into the upper air, only to
come down again some miles further
east and then bounce off again. Now
what want to find out is the spot where
the thing "bounces," for have no fear
of tornado that stays in tie upper air;
and think ! am "hard onto the spot"
Wherever there is north or south
creek or river with a high bluff on the
east side, the safest place in my opinion
is from two to ten miles east Of that bluff
say, five miles on an average. have
observed along the Wabash and minor
streams that the tornadoes (they are near
ly always from the wesD are turned up
ward by the east bluff and do not come
down for some distance. l dare not
swear there is safe place in a tornado's
track, but if there is, should bet on the
strip east of the east bluff.

a JOLLY WIZARD.

Oh a wizard dwelt in a cave by the sea,
And a dreamer OF dreams was he,
The wild waves roar as they broke on the shore,
Gave him mirth and jollity.
For he'd people the rocks and the sounding deep
With phantasies weird as the products Of sleep
Oh, he dreamed of maiden fair as star,
Who came DER the rolling sea
On the snowy crest of the pillows breast;
With airy head walked she,
And her face was as white as the driven snow
And her voice was like music sad and log.
Oh. she sang of love, and Of lovers pain.
And she sang of dream so sweet
That had urged her soul to a desperate goal
For the sake Of a wild heart beat.
For the lover she loved In her fondest dream
Was false as the glitter Of brook and stream
On, the wizard dwelt In cave by the sea-
And dreamer of dreams was he,
Through phantasies sad and phantasies glad,
He kept his jollity;
FOR a dream is dream, and not life" quoth he,
But love which is life ne'er dream can be-"

Kansas City Times.
A gentleman passed through the city
Sunday on his way to EXcelsiorSprings,
whose name, three or four years ago,
was one of the most popular in the
daily press of that city. 1t was John
II. Shy. of Deming, N. NJ, whose deed
of heroism in saving his wife and fam
lily from massacre by a band of savage
Apaches after arunning fight of several
miles, will ever make his name a con-
SpicuOuS one i'll the history of the West.
The story is as follows:
MI. Shy had settled on a ranch In New
Mexico with his wife and young son,
their place being seventeen miles from
any other settlement. The ranch was
attacked by a rowing band OF eighteen
Apaches, who sought to drive off the
stock. MIR. Shy, who was we'll armed
and had plenty of ammunition, placed
his wife and child in a place of safety
within the house and then opened fire.
which was returned. The fight was
Waged for some time, till one of the In
dians succeeded in crawling up to and
setting fire to the house. This neceSsi-
taleQ HlSnG, so, Sendlng MIS-. shy tor
ward under cover of the smoke of the
burning building, the husband and
father, carrying his young son under
his arm, made a dash for the cover of
some thick brush which was growing
near by.
An Indians bullet went. through the
child's hip and lodged in the fathers
body, but the fight went on. Mr.. Shy
a forward some distance, and then,
dropping the child in the brush, would
face about and fire at the leading pur-
su5r, who would thus be brought to a
standstill for a time. Then another
short flight and another stand to gain
time for Mrs. Shy, who was fleeing in
front, and so the day was spent. The
Indians finally CAV up the chase, which
had cost them no less than six warriors,
and the exhausted fugitives managed to
reach the city of Deming with their
lives. The wounds received by both
father and son were rapidly healed, and
now, when the hostiles are forever ex-
PEELED from or killed out of that neigh
borhood, there is no more flourishing or
happy family in New Mexico than that
of yalorouS John Z. Shy.

THE QUALITY OF MERCY,

Which Does Not Seem to Be
Strained in Sundry Police Court
Sentences.
Mrs. Carroll, the unfortunate mother
of a family of starving children and the
wife of a husband out of work, was SEN
fenced to serve a thirty days sentence
yesterday. To expect consistency in
the sentence imposed in a police court
is, perhaps, overriding the thing a little,
but the average observer of municipal
court affairs finds it difficult to under
stand the depth of judicial wisdom
which is so frequently displayed
weeks ago a colored woman
was arrested for a deliberate attempt at
murder. She emptied a revolver at her
paramount, and meant to kill him beyond
all doubt. She has been arrested in
Vulnerable times for O%tfenses Of which
no paper dare print the details. On one
occasion she placed a revolver at the
head OF a police officer who tried to ar
rest her. and he only escaped with his
life because the gun missed fire. The
woman is a menac to the community.
She will kill some one to a dead GER
tainty if allowed to remain at large.
one was brought INTO the municipal
court charged with assault with
a deadly weapon. The details of the
case were made as plain as day-the
enormity of the woman's crime and the
utter d~epravity of her life were made
plainly apparent. She was given a
sentence of thirty days. Notorious
burglars. thugs, toughs, wou1d-be muir
derers have ininnumerable instances re-
ceived thirty day sentences-and these
suspended. A mother steals a piece of
meat because her children are starving,
and she gets thirty days. The state
ment was made yesterday that the
for drunkenness. The police of the
West side station, in which district
Mrs. Carroll has lived for years, told a
GLOBE reporter last night that she had
never been inside the Ducas street sta
ton except OIL this occasion.
