ARE WOMEN EVER MEAN

An Instance Which Shows That There
Are Some who Are Very Cruel.
"Meani" exclaimed SparlSins, as he
lighted the last cigarette in the fourth
bunch since morning. "Why, the mean
ness of women toward each other is CO.
lossa,."
It was generally conceded at the club
that young Sparkins was an authority
on the female question.
"You chaps may not know" said he,
"that a woman is always worried that
something may be wrong with the back
Of her dress. Well, that's feminine char
acteristic, just as the habit of sitting on
the floor when they put on their stock
ings is. A woman ON the streets is never
perfectly at peace in regard to her ap-
pearance from the rear. She can look
up and down the front all right, but un-
less she has a girl friend to advise her
she is never sure about her back.
"Now, you can imagine how easy it
would be to upset the peace of mind of a
nervously constructed woman by max
ing her fancy that some displacement of
attire at her back is attracting the atten-
tion of people to her. Well, now, what
do you suppose have found out? Why,
that there's an organized band of young
female fends who devote themselves at
odd times to the business of breaking
women up on the street by conveying to
them the impression that their garments
are making guys of them. The plan is
to look straight at certain point of the
victims skirt just as she is passing, and
then to turn and cast up the eyes to the
victims face with look in which pity
and ridicule are equally blended. .
"What do these imps do but go out on
to the avenue of an afternoon, distribute
themselves at equal distances in pairs
and proceed Systematically to frighten
every we'll dressed woman that comes
along by their staring. And they gloat
over the discontinue they produce when
they get together afterward They were
delighted the other day when they drove
lady back to her house, about ten
blocks away, after convincing her that
her white underskirt was in full view.
Now, what are you going to do with a
sex that's so mean as all that?"
Nothing" replied one Of the listening
group. "What are you going to do?"
"Well, I've got to take couple of 'em
out to supper tonight" said young
Sparkns.
"After the theater?" some one asked.
"Oh, of course" he replied. "These
are theater ladies. New York Letter.

Graduates who Use Ribbon.

A grave professor concerned with read
ing the essays of a large number of grad
uates from co-educational college
demolishes an old respectable tradition
when in private letter he writes:
BRASS clamps are great improvement
on pink ribbon for tying up the loose
pages of wise young women's wiseessays,
but the present generation of girl grad
yates would never think of using ribbon
anyhow, it commonly chooses cotton
twine or mucilage." Herein is shock
ingly exemplified the influence of the
mind masculine over the character
feminine. The knot of ribbon is still
very much the rule in schools where
girls alone do congregate. Exchange.

The crlmca Going to waste.

A st. Petersburg paper complains
that the Crimea, though rich in natural
resources, is neglected by the govern
ment. The editor remarks: "Some
Crimean peasant digging in the ground
has discovered coal, another has found
a well of naphtha, u third has stumbled
upon layer of sulphate of soda, q
fourth has shovcled up some gold dust:
but we hear little of special scientific
commissions appointed to explore. the
mineral wealth of our peninsula. Year
by year the irrigation of the Crimea is
getting worse; the rivers are drying ND,
and nothing is done to check the evil.
The quicksands from the deserts over
flow large tracts of arabic soil, miles of
fecund lands are covered by them every
year, and nothing is done to stop their
encroachment, either by irrigation or
by the planting of trees on their pres
ent limits. Swarms of locusts and
other destructive insects destroy the
best crops every year and no effort is
made to counteract this evil"

What the World Needs.

What the world needs to-day Is not
more medicine, but less of it. Not new
methods of shutting out sunlight and
the only true elixir of life, but more
pure air to breathe, pure water to drink,
pure food to eat, less overworh and
overworry, more rational methods of
labor with many toilers with brain and
hand, more wholesome exercise and a
calmcr, more cheerful frame of mind.
Tens of thousands die before their time
through consuming fear of unseen and
purely imaginary foes, and other tens of
thousands through false teaching, the
influence of false ideas, and, in conse-
quence, of senseless violation of nat
ure's plainest laws. Instead of losing
our grip on life, we of this generation
ought to be getting frmer hold. Our
boastful modern ways are pitifully
weak and unreliable, asserts the Phila-
delphia Telegraph. 1t will take q hun
dred Kochs to lift us above the ever
swelling tide that is sweeping mankind
SO helplessly along toward the end of
all things human.

Cure Tor D1phthetia.

peasant physician named Riegcr,
OF Glogau, In Silesia, announces cure
for diphtheria which an agent of the
Emperor has examined and reported
very favorably upon. It is thought to
be mixture of extracts from two or
three common weeds and an Oil. The
salve resulting from thes mixture is
hquefed, and applied with a brush to
the interior of the throat. The remedy
was discovered by Rieger's father, a
shepherd. It was applied by him only
to external wounds. Once, when young
Rieger's whole herd was dying of diph-
liberia, he, in despair Of all other means,
began treating their throats with the
salve. The favorable effect was appar-
ent almost Immediately, and in few
days every head of cattle was well
again. Shortly aftcrward diphtheria
became epidemic in the village. Rieger
was invariably called to give his remedy
In the most severe cases, and almost
without exception it was followed by,
recovery. Gradually its fame spread,
till to-day he is receiving calls to cure
persons of diphtheria all over Germany.
The cures that have contributed most to
his reputation were effected n few weeks
ago in the family of the Freiherr Won
FalkenhauSen in Berlin.

Mania for handkerchief.

An extraordinary case of monomania
has been developed at Vienna. A
bakers assistant there has stolen no
less than six hundred and forty-six
pocket handkcrchiefs, not for thciy
value but because an irresistible long
ing to possess them has prompted him
to do SO. He never sold them but
used to carry them ABOUT with him con-
stantly. IGe was first punished in 1883,
when he was condemned to fort
nights imprisonment for steaiing
twenty-seven handkerchiefs. He was
sentenced to the same penalty three
years later for similar offense, but
the police, instead Of handing him over
to the jailer, sent him to the hospital to
have his mental condition examined.
The doctors declared him to be suffer
inn from acute mouomhnia. He says
that when ne secs n lady's handler

CLUB EXPENSES.
What 1t Cost, to Run tho Fasiionab lie
Gu of New Ypr...

Few people outside of tho governing
bodies of the big clubs have any idea of
the vast amount OF money which it takes
to run the larger New York clubs, says
the Sun of that city. y club is not a
money-maliing institution, and the gov
errors aim to SO grade the charges for
meals, wines, liquors, cigars, ETC., as to
sell them just little above cost, but
the receipts from the restaurant and cafe
Of big club like the Manhattan or
Union League are, nevertheless, enor-
NOUS Since the Manhattan Club took
possession of the Stewart mansion its
always famous cuisine cknowledgedly
the best in New York clubdom-has
been more than over in de mand. From
one hundred and fifty to two hundred
members of tho club dino there every
night, and the night which is not
marked by two or three private dinner
parties is the exception. Including the
receipts from the restaurant, the sale OF
wines, liquors and cigars, the income
from billiards and other games, ETC.,
the club has revenue of nearly $1,000
u uuy, eACluSlNc VI lnltiltiVii iSto anu
dues. There are more than 1,200 mem
bers of the club, and rs each ono pays
seventy dollars Il year for dues, tho club
thus nets the snug sum Of about $4,000
a year in this way, to say nothing Of tho
aggregation of two hundred and fifty
dollars initiation fees from incoming
members. Take it all in all, the total
receipts of the Manhattan Club for the
coming year will probably be somewhere
between $780, 600 and 100000. AS all,
or nearly all, of this money will be ex-
pended in running the club, it will be
seen that it costs something like $1,000
day to maintain the Manhattan Club.
Its most formidable rival, the Union
League, is not 50 far behind in the way
of receipts and running expenses. Last
year the receipts of the Union League
from all sources was S296, 42S 46. So
nearly were the receipts and expenses
balanced that the outlay of the club for
the same period was S295,240. II. of the
total income, about $4,000 came in the
form of Dues $4,000 from initiation
fees; about S62, 900 from the restaurant;
$40, 900 from tho sale of wines and liq.
uors; 1000 from lovers of the weed
$4,000 for lodgings, and $4,000 from bill
iards and other games.

A FELINE SNAKE-KILLER.
An Alabama Cat That Was Death o
Reptiles.

'Rattlesnakes may charm birds, rab-
bits and dogs but they can't charm cats.
The speaker was George Stearnes, a
farmer from Walker County, who was
telling snake stories while waiting for a
train at the depot To prove his asser-
tions Stearnes related the following in
cident:
He owns a large black cat, says the
st. Louis Globe-Domocrat, which kills
every snake and lizard it can find. The
other day he saw the cat creeping
through the grass toward some kind OF
prey and watched it. A few feet away
he discovered large rattlesnake coiled
ready to strike and its bead-like eyes
fixed on those of the cat. The head OF
the snake was making the peculiar
swaying motion which is a part of the
charm that brings birds and rabbits will
ing victims to the mouth of the hideous
reptiles. Stearncs says he saw at
glance the snak was trying to charm
the cat, and, as he was not much at
tached to the feline, he stood still to
await results With its body close to
the ground, and its tail swaying back
and forth, the cat continued to creep
slowly forward. Its eyes were fixed on
those of the snake, ~ though the two
were testing Their powers of mesmer-
ism. Slowly and cautiously the cat
crept closer and closer to the coiled rep
tile, and it really seemed for awhile
/ that it had fallen victim to the
charming powers Of the RATHER. When
1 within four feet OF the snake it stopped,
| placed It's feet in position for spring,
and remained motionless for an instant.
The snake seemed surprised, and
changed its position slightly. This was
the opportunity the cat was waiting for
Quick as lightning the feline leaped
and caught the snake by the neck with
teeth and claws, and, after rolling over
and over on the ground for two minutes,
the snake was dead. Fhc cat did not
release its hold until long after the
snake ceased to move, and then, as il
walked away, would occasionally look
back to see If there was any suspicious
| movement.

Part of Redwood Giant from Tulare for
Chicago.
The section of the big redwood tree
for exhibition at the worlds fair at Chi
cage is from the largest and most per-
feet big Tree" in California, cut for
the purpose from the mammoth forest
in Tuiare County, Cal. 1t measures
ninety-nino feet in circumference at the
base. Tho height of this monster speci-
men was $40 feet, being 172 feet to the
first limb. which limb measures three
feet in diameter, Tho tree is supposed
to be nearly 5000 years old, taking each
concentric ring to be of one years
growth. 1t is to be taken from an alti.
tude of G,325 feet above the sea level,
and thirty-threc miles from the nearest
railroad.
Ten expert woodsmon, says the New
Orleans Tin.es-Democrat, have been cut
ting the tree since March 10. AS this
tree was taken from tho MIDST of a
dense forest, it was found necessary to
build road for four miles, as nothing
but trail existed, leading from the
tree into the oouity road In clearing
way nearly 100 ordinary-sized trees
had to be Gu. down, huge rocks had to
be blasted, = number of bridges built,
and many other obstacles had to be
overcome in order to land this giant OF
the forest at tho nearest railroad point
Part Of the tree has been cut out and
placed on hinges, SO as, to swing open
and shut like q door. The interior has
been followed 10 accommodate visitors
