II is an art acquired only by practice to

second reading of good book is often
OF great value. The thoughts retained
from the first reading are impressed
more fully on the mind, and become
assimilated with ones mental structure.
while others of value that were unnoted
before are gathered in.
If there is no time for second read
ing, it is an excellent idea to read with
blue pencil in hand. and to mark those
passages on which one would like to be-
stow further thought. In the eyes OF
some people, marking book is an un-
pardOnable sin, but the practice has
many advantages. The objection that

FiiIing Up Main Holes.

The following method of filling up

aut said to be effectual. Take fine
Sawdust and mix into q thick paste

when dry it viii make the wood as
good as new. Frank Christian says he
has followed this plan for thirty years

The heirs of Benjamin Franklin have
entered suit in the Philadelphia courts
to contest his will, hich was probated
just century ago. In it he bequeathed
to the cities of Philadelphia and Boston
the sum of 81, 900 each. to be lent upon
marriage TO young men under IS who
had finished their apprenticeship and
wished to establish themselves in bust
ness. The rate of interest stipulated
was 5 per cent Franklin estimated
that at the end Of century the fund
" ould amount to El3l 900. He directed
that G31 900 should then be devoted To
municipal improvements, and the re
mainder loaned 20 young married
couples for another century, when he
thought it would amount to ca O00.-
600. This sum was then TO be divided
between the city and the State. Ac-
cording to Professor Ely's Taxation in
American States and Cities, the Phila-
deIphia fund two years ago amounted
to $73. 600. and the Boston fund to $315.
0O0 The Franklin heirs petition that
the win be set aside and that these
funds. which their ancestor set apart
for the Ultimate enrichment Of the pub
lie and relief Of taxpayers, should be
divided among themselves. They base
their petition upon the claim that the
bequest was not charitable one, and
therefore was in violation Of the COM
mon law -rule Of perpetuities which
forbids the tying up Of an estate for
more than q years after the death OF
the immediate Iegatees.

A Horse ON The Pension Roll.

There is horse in the United States
army on the retired list. drawing pen
sion. It's fact. The horse belonged
to Captain Keogh, near relative OF
General Custer. and is the only horse
which escaped tie massacre in which
that general was killed His name is
Comanche, and he is stationed at Fort
Riley, Kan, with the Seventh Cavalry
Clusters old regiment His pension is
sufficient to pay his transportation where
ever he goes and to pay for his forage.
He is cared for by man detailed for
that duty. and who does nothing else.
He Is saddled, bridied, and equipped and
led out for inspection, yet no one sits in
his saddle. He has been much sought
after by enterprising showmen, but Un-
Gle Sam says no. He will be kept as
long as life lasts. and after that will
probably be prepared and sent TO the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington
When found Conanche was many miles
away from the scene of the battle. He
had seven wounds and was nearly ex-
hausted from loss of blood.

The name of dwarfs, applied by some
to these people. has been objected to as
implying deformity or arrested growth,
and therefore conveying a wrong inn
preston. Neither of the kind can be
said of the African pygmies, who.
though of short stature, are well shaped
people of perfectly normal formation.
1t is true that the Hottentots and BUSH
men show certain strange anatomical
peculiarities; but these may be said to
be more or less accidental, being. in part
at least the result of special and un-
favorable conditions of life.
The pygmies are nomadic in their
habits, and neither keep cattle nor till
the ground. hut live by hunting and
snaring wild animals and birds. or,
under the most unfavorable circum-
stances on wild fruits. roots. and ber-
-ries. Their weapons are always bows
and arrows. the latter usually poisoned
the resource of the weak. They have
no fixed abode. and, If they build shelter
at all, only construct rude huts of
branches They have no government,
nor do they form regular communities.
They usually wander about like our
gypsies. in hordes composed OF few
families each This, however, depends
on the nature OF the country--in the
parched deserts of the south they are
not even united to this extent Some
times they are to certain extent de-
pendent on more powerful tribes, who
afford them protection in return for
certain services Their notions Of the
Unseen. when they have any, would APP
pear to be of the very crudest Their
language seems to be distant from
others, related among themselves. and

A Citizens Complaint.
Editor LIGHT:

EulJOT Lluhl.
''In the effort to place San Antonio at
the head of progressive cities" our most
valuable administration has found no
time to look at the many little things,
that collectively, make a city clean,
comfortable place for civilized man to live
in. Our many streets, improved by the
expenditure of a great amount of money.
but comparatively little labor, and still
less mechanical skill, are in such chaotic
state, that a properly constructed gutter
can nowhereS be found. The obstruction,
from material for street improvements
and the sticky. miasma breeding accumu-
latiOn in the places left for cutters
are unnoticed by the city authorities.
The Alamo plaza In front of the post
Office has been blocked up and the many
streets leading on to it are now, fenced off
by the contractors, to the great detri-
ment of all citizens. If there is no money
for such improvements as block pave
ments, why not quit and let us have the
use of the streets at least? But il the
mooney is on hand must we pay interest on
this money and be kept out of the use of
same by slow contractors? Street car
companies having received franchises on
D our streets tear up our valuable
streets, more than one way, and convert
them into veritable gravel pits. Travel
over such streets is barred as effectually
as If 1T had been closed altogether. Has
the public no rights? Cannot we at least
expect our streets placed in as good a con-
sdition as they were in by such corpora
items? Ought we to look to our paid
agents, our administration, to guard our
interest against even its pets, and corpo-
rationS. MEIROw.
