A man must have the physical endow-

must have a certain mental endowment
to be q poet, says noted criminal In
the St. Louis Globe Democrat. The

of about an inch from the top of the

Not more than half dozen move

ry to get the lining out far enough.
With the lining, of course, will come
the pocketbools, and this should never

MAYORS COURT.

The following business was disposed
of by Mayor Evans in his court yester-
day morning:
Leila Smith and Laura Murphy, who
we're before his honor Tuesday morning
on the charge of fighting, had another
row, and were bound over to keep the
peace in the sum of SIS each.
Thd case of Ella Griffin, charged by
Rosalie Robinson with going through
her yard and being guilty of disorderly
conduct, was dismissed.
The case of Henry and Anthony Kell,
charged with assaulting w. Il. Hill at a
house in Peach and Honey, Hill said he
was looking for his friond Saturday
night and found him at Eva Jenkins.
Aftcrward the two Kclls came to tho
house, and calling him out row en-
sued, and the Kell brothers, accompan.
led by two other men, persucd Hill into
tho house, knocked him down and
stamped in his face.
Anthony Kcll charged that Hill cut
Mt him twice with knife. lie and his
brother had joined the circus and while
singing song Hill followed Rats"
This caused tho difficulty. There was
great crowd in tho b1uso and FREQ
fight ensued. Henry Kcll entertained
the court with theatrical account of
the transaction. The mayor fined the
Kclls and Hill all 81 each.

They were comrades as clearly as

when his lips parted they only gave

but the dog only closed one watery

SO as to obtain view of his face
without looking up in his nostrils, but
he never let me- AS soon Us | placed
his head in n good position no would
say that that was not natural, and up
would go his head. 1t was this gentlc-
man who was told by crazy woman on
the Jersey ferryboat that when no died
1t would not be much trouble to bury
him, as he was already laid out.
a lady once brought her three chill
drcn, hobby horse, n drum and doll
They were to be taken in group. The
size selected was three and ono-fourth
by four and one-half inches. The girl
Angelina was to hold tho doll, but tho
family had not decided whether Charles
Augustus was to ride tho horse and
William Henry was to hold the drum. or
vice versa They had agreed to Lot my
superior judgment decide that momeu-
tous question.
AS both tho boys wished to mount
the horse, decision was no easy mat
ter. I then learned that tho mother did
not want the children close together, rs
oil the "dog-ra-types" were taken She
wanted Angelina in tho middle Of the
room, one of the boys by tho "winder"
and the other boy on tho other side of
the room.

camera was to reach them oil, thus
spread out, was moro than could sec.

explained TO her the capabilities Of

been told that was disposed to be ac-
commodating, but that l was just the
samo as the rest of tho "dog-ra-type"
mon, for throc others had refused to 40
commodato her in this way.
Another lady brought hor thrco chill
drcn to DO taken In group, md when
asked her if she wished them taken in
any particular position, sho showed her
good sense by saying that sho only
asked that they should not lool, like
three candles; she did not wish them I'LL

An old lndy, after sitting about half
the time required TO have her picture
taken, raised both hands, md cx-
claimed: stop it. stop it! l winlzcd"
AS an elegantly dressed young lady
was preparing to sit for her picture.
she asked: "NYhcrc must / lool,?" and
before L could answer, her escort, q
very diminutive specimen of man,
stepped in front of the screen and said
in squcnl1ing voice: "Look at me-"
The scene was SO ludicrous that the
lady burst into hearty laughter and it
was some minutes before she could
control her features for sitting.
After that, "Look ut me-" soto voce,

Tho Great Spider Gran.

The Japanese waters arc frequented
by many species of the crab family, and
have the honor of developing the largest
of ell the crabs. the inachus Kempfcri
or spider crab. These grow to en- cnor-
nous size, and from the point of ono
large claw to the other with we'll
grown crab the distance is fully ten
feet, while the front legs ere quito Eve
feet long. The body is triangular in
shape and small in comparison with the
length of the legs. Clarence Great
house, when American consul-gencral
to Japan, sent good specimen to tho
state mining bureau, that is veritable
curiosity. The front legs are fivo feet
and three inches in length, while the
body is ut least two feet wide at the
end of the great long spidc1-ll,sc legs
are sharp, lnife-lilsc protubcrances and
the front legs have powerful pincer-lilse
claws, armed with sharp teeth. AS it
is placed against the walls Of the mu-
scum it looks like q gigantic spider.
These crabs are eaten by the Japanese.

French and American women, ac-
cording to Max O'Rell, have certain
striking points Of resemblance, cs-
pccially in the matter of tact nnd
adaptability to circumstances. II q
French milliner were to be placed
among cultivated people for an hour
she would be able to talk, walk and be-
have like the most refined society
woman in the room. The same is true,
says our French critic, of IN American
woman of no social advantages, who
would in an amazingly short time per-
form the honors as mistress of the
white house with case and grace. Eng
lish women rarely adapt themselves
easily to social positions to which they
have not been bred.

for mankind, is easiest done in the field
of small things. Human misery, as the
writer referred to well remarks, is al
ways greater than the sum of human
happiness. 1t is, therefore, not only a
duty, but pleasure to do all we can to
augment the latter and decrease the
former.
A well-known citizen in public life re-
marked to us the other day: 81 never
read anything unpleasant about myself"
That perhaps is carrying the retreat into
content too far, for if one does not inform
himself of his enemies plans he cannot be
fully armed to resist them. Our friend
replied: eyes, the armor of truth is suf-
ficient for all emergencies" That may
be, but it assumes self-conviction of what
is the truth and self-reliance of an order
very few have. We think our friend
wrong; that while we should not seek to
know the unpleasant things said of us,
we should not close our ears wholly to
them.
