A Detroiter who deals in real estate,
law, insurance, loans, lawsuits, politics,
etc, went yer TO Chicago the other day.
While nearing that city a man came to
him and confidentially remarked:
There's a chap in the car back there
trying to get a SEQ bill changed. It's a
base counterfeit, and I want to put you
on your guard"
He was warmly thanked for his kind
ness and passed on, and five minutes
later a man appeared with a bill in his

OUTLINED HIS SENTENCE.
Singular Longevity of Man Cor

Singular Longevity of Man Con-
ment.
A certain housebreaker was con-
demned i'll the latter part of the last
century in France, and under peculiar
circumstances, to 100 years in the gal
leys, and, strange to relate, this man
recently made his appearance in his
own native province at the advanced
age of one hundred and twenty, he
being about twenty years of age when
the sentence which condemned him to
so dreadful punishment was passed.
1t is difficult to conceive what the feel
ingS must have been with which he re-
turned, comments the New York Ledger,
as soon as emancipated from the
ShackleS that had entbralled him for a
century, to breathe once more the cher
ished air of the scenes of his infancy.
BOurg, in the department of Ain, was
mis- native home; but time had so much
changed the aspect of the whole place
that he recognized it only by the old
church of BrOu, which was the only
thing that had undergone no alteration.
He had triumphed over laws, bondage,
man. time-eYerything. Not relation
had he left; not single being could he
hail as an acquaintance; yet he was not
without experiencing the homage and
respect the French invariably pay to old
age. For himself. he had forgotten
everything connected with his early
youth; even all recollection of the crime
for which he had suffered was lost. or,
if at all remembered, it was but as a
dreary vision. COMPOUNDED with thou

Hatch Loves Birds.

Chicago Herald.
Rufus Hatch, the New York capital
ist, who recently stopped some days at
the Richelieu, displayed a trait of
character somewhat odd for a man who
is supposed to be immersed in matters
financial to the exclusion of everything
else. Each morning after breakfast Mr..
Hatch would go out OH the walk in front
of the hotel and feed the little birds
which pick up precarious living In the
Lake Front park. For this purpose Mr..
Hatch would supply himself with bread,
which he would crumble and scatter
on the pavement.
1t took the little aerial wanderers but
a short time to learn that feast was be-
ing spread for them. Each morning.
after the first few days, the feathered
tramps would congregate by the hun
dred outside the hotel entrance aud walt

JAPANESE FLOWER SHOW.
People Who Have Exquisite Taste
i'm Arrangement and Colors.

1n Arrangement and COIOrS.
In LafcadiO Hearn's paper in the
November Atlantic, THE Chief City of
the Province OF the Gods" he describes
Japanese flower show. He writes:
Often in the streets at night, especial
ly on the nights of sacred festivals
(motsuri), ones attention will be at
tracted TO some small booth by the
spectacle of an admiring and perfectly
silent crowd pressing before it. AS
soon as one can get chance to look
one finds there is nothing to look at
but a few vases containing sprays of
flowers, or, perhaps.; some light,
gracious branches freshly cut from
poisoning tree. 1t is simply
little flower show, or, more correctly, a
free exhibition of master skill in the ar
rangement of flowers. For the Japanese
do not brutally chop off flower heads to
work them up into meaningless masses
of color, as we barbarianS dO-they love
nature too we'll for that; they know how
much the natural charm of the flower
depends upon its setting and mounting,
Its relation To leaf and stem, and they
select single graceful branch or spray
just as nature made it. at first you
will not, as a western stranger, compre-
Itilu SuCH oil cAillOillOu dI all. you are
yet a savage in such matters compared
with the commonest coolies about
you. But even while you are still
wondering at popuiBr interest in
this simple little show the charm
of lit will begin to grow upon
you, will become revelation to you;
and despite your Occidental idea of self
superiority you will feel humbled by
the discovery that all flower displays
you have ever seen abroad were only
monstroSities In comparison with the
exquisite natural beauty of these few
simple sprays. You will also observe
how much the white or pale blue screen
behind the flowers enhances the effect
by lamp or lantern light. For the screen
has been arranged with the special pur-
pose of showing the eXQuisiteness of
plant shadows, and the sharp silhou-
cites of sprays and blossoms cast there
on are beautiful beyond the imagining
of any Western decorative artist.

ACROSS THE SAHARA.
SpecuIatiOns on the Railroad
Which Nav Be Built There.

Which May Be Built There.
The traffic of the Trans-Saharian
railway will comprise two classes of
business-the first, local, between oasis
and oasls,or the Saharian traffic proper !;
the second, the business between ex-
treme ends of the line, between Algeria
and France and the Central Soudan.
says a writer in Scribner's. Once
given railway transportatiOns, depOts
and markets will spring up along the
line, for the surveys cross the lines fol-
lowed by the caravans that carry
OH the commerce of the desert. The ex-
port of cereals from Algeria to the TOu-
aregs and to the Au country, and the
export of salt, which is not found in the
Soudan, will give Importance to the salt
wells of Amadrhor. Upon the other
hand, it is certain that constant stream
from the south will pour into Algeria,
bringing chiefly hides and leather. An
estimate of the yearly income to be de-
rived from the Saharian business may
be put at 6,265, 600 francs. Dividing this
sum by the length of the line from Bis
kra to Lake Tchad, 3,100 kilometers
q, 1928 miles,. the earnings are equal to
1000 francs per kllOmeter.
Central SOudan is rich enough to fur
nlSn vast commercial business TO a
railway; spices, ostrich feathers. gold
dust, indigo, hides, leather, cereals and
fruits, palm oil. cotton, ebony and dye
stutfs. The exports and imports of the
Soudan ought to provide an income of
1910 francs per kilOmeter. Finally,
there remains the passenger traffic,
which may be expected to grow into
Importance. In round numbers, may
say that the trans-Saharian traffic would
result in earnings of about 10000 francs
per kilometer of line. As the construc-
ton cost would average 100000 francs a
kilometer. interest at Az per cent will
require 1850 francs per kilometer. The
running expenses of one train day in
either direction would be between 5000
and $500 francs per kilometer per year.
From financial standpoint the enter
prize, if well managed, ought therefore
TO prove { remunerative. This alon e.,
apart from other considerations, should
warrant trans-Saharian railway.
