UNDUE FAMILIARITIES.
Some Details That Mark the Difference Be-

as new.

Some Details That Mark the Difference Be-
tween Intimacy and Familiarity.
In talk on Intimacy versus Familiar
fly" Marion Harland says. in House
keepers Weekly;
To come down to everyday particulars:
One of the unwarrantable familiarities is to
enter a friends house without ringing her
door bell, unless you have been especially
requested to do so. No ground of intimacy
on which you and your friend may stand
justifes this liberty. The housekeepers
are few and far between who, in their in
most souls, will not resent this invasion
of their domain. 1t argues an enormous
amount of self conceit on your part when
you fancy that you are considered SO en-
tirely one of the family that your unan-
nounced presence will never prove an un-
welcome intrusion.
In country places neighbors contract the
habit of running in" to see one another
Were the truth known, many housekeep-
err, deep in piemaking and breadmaking,
would gladly give her handsomest loaf ~
two minutes in which to smooth her rum
Piled hair and change her soiled apron. OF
course our housewives husband may see

enough for him is good enough for callers
Perhaps it does not occur to her that the
husband has so often found his wife dressed
NEATLY and sweetly" that the cooking cos
tune will not make upon him the disa-
greeable impression it might produce upon
a caller who sees her hostess once in this
guise where her husband has hundreds of
opportunities Of beholding her in company
clothes.
1t may be remarked in this connection
that the persons who are guilty of lapses
efxe that of entering your front door unan-
nounced are Of the same class as those who
enter your bedchamber or sanctum with
out knocking. Allow me to say that this
is a rudeness which nothing warrants.
Ones own room should be so completely
her own that her nearest and dearest will
not feel at liberty to enter without permits
sion. Another evidence of lack of finish is
offering gratuitous advice. If your opinion
is asked, it is kind and right that you should
give it; but safe rule to go by is that unless
your advice is requested it is not wanted.
1t is one of the strangest problems in hui
man nature that one should of her own ac-
cord implicate herself in other peoples
affairs and take upon herself an onerous
responsibility by giving her unsolicited
opinion in matters which do not concern
her. 1t is a disagreeable task, and very
thankless one.

the beginning of its last session, recon-
mends this plan.
''If the plans outlined in these columns
for the Denver and Galveston road can be
carefully organized as suggested, it is quite
probable that Texas may thus aid the eu-
terprise so far as the line will be in that
state. This idea of turning within her
borders such an enormous commerce as
this line would control should command the
hearty cooperation of all Texas. And as
for Colorado. the idea of the emancipation
that the proposed road would give this
whole interior region from the oppressively
high tariffs it now suffers (nearly three
times as much per mile west as east of the
Missouri river), and the building up of
her manufactures, mining and other indus
tries that this independent line would
bring, ought to make the whole people of
the state enthusiastic in their aid Of the
enterprise.
"a conference between Denver and Gal
weston ought to be brought about to in-
augurate, in the best possible manner, this
great undertaking.

EFFECTS OF MENTAL DISTRESS.
Theory in Regard to the Manner in
Which Fright May Produce Death.

A Theory in Regard to the Manner in
Which Fright May Produce Death.
In studying the admitted fact that severe
mental distress or fright sometimes pro-
duces physical disease and even death DR..
G. Bassi has recently made a number of
observations on animals which died appar-
emily in consequence of captivity. Birds,
moles and a dog which had succumbed to
conditions believed by Dr.. Bassi to resem-
bic those known among human beings az
acute nostalgia and a "broken heart" were
examined post mortem. Generally there
was hyperBmia, sometimes associated with
capillary hemorrhages of the abdominal
organs, more especially of the liver, also
fatty and granular degeneration of their
elements, and sometimes bile was found in
the stomach, with or without catarrhal
condition. The clinical symptoms were at
first those of excitement, especially in the
birds, these being followed by depression.
The theory suggested by DR.. Bassi is that
the nervous disturbance interferes with the
due nutrition of the tissues in such way
as to give rise to the formation of toxic
substances probably ptomaines-w which
then set up a condition similar to that
which occurs in consequence of the action
of certain poisonous substances, such as
phosphorus or to that met with in some
infectious diseases. In support OF this
view he points out that Schulz has found
this condition in persons dead from acute
delirium, and that Zenker found hemor
rhages in the pancreas in persons who had
died suddenly. He refers also to some
well known facts concerning negroes in
state of slavery, and to the occasional oc-
currence of jaundice after fright. He hopes
that these hints may induce medical off
GERS of prisons and others to study both
clinically and anatomically this interesting
subject.

FROGS at School.

Twenty froggies went to school
Down beside a rushy pool;
Twenty little coats of green
Twenty vests all white and clean.
I'VE must be in time" said they:
First we study, then we play.
That is how we keep the rule
When we froggies go to school"
Master Bullfros. grave and stern.
Called the classes in their turn.
Taught them how to nobly strive,
Likewise how TO leap and dive;
From his seat upon the log,
Showed them how to say "Ker-chogT"
Also how to dodge blow
From the sticks which bad boys throw
Twenty froggies grew up fast;
Bullfrogs they became at last;
Not one Ounce among the lot
Not one lesson they forgot:
Polished in high degree,
As each froggie ought to be:
Now they sit on other logs
Teaching other little frogs.

TWO LITTLE UEOPARDS.

Row These Curious Spotted Babies
Thrived in Geological Garden.
Once on time two little creatures were
born in fine house in beautiful garden;
there were bright flowers and rare animals
there, and in their own apartment all was
arranged for their comfort.
They were curious little fellows, both in
spotted coats; and when they were hungry
their cries were not at all like the cries of
other babies, but like the cries of kittens;
in truth, these fellows were little leopards
born in a geological garden. Only one

Which don't need changing every time that

PICTURED IN A HORSES EYE.
A Full Image of SPOKANE Falls Fixed bv
Some Freak of Nature.

lspokhne falf hevleW.l
One Of the most wonderful freaks OF
nature the world has ever known is now
attracting attention in st. Paul, and Spo-
kane Falls figures in the central figure IN
the phenomenon. IL is no less than
horse that bears in its left eve perfect
picture of tho waterfalls at Spokane Falls.
The eye has been seen and examined by
hundreds of persons, and closely compared
by them with photographs and other
pictures of the falls and no one has yet
failed 10 pronounce IL a correct picture.
In discussing the matter with reporter
Mr.. Dillman said:
Mr. Deakin sent the horse down TO the
hotel where stopped in order that might
see him. The horse is white In color ana
of medium size. ] was somewhat skeptical
about the story until i looked into the
animals left eye, when / beheld perfect
reproduction OF a part OF the falls OF the
Spokane river as true 10 life as the best
photographs"
The part of the falls shown is from the
water-works across to tine mills. The island
on which the water-works stand Is also
shown. The picture IS asolutely perfect IN
every detail. The horse was sold in st. Paul
with number of,other horses. and the won
derful picture in his eye was not discover
ed until after he had passed into the pos
session of Mr.. Deakin.
Hundreds of people have viewed the
horse, and Mr.. Deakin has received an
offer Of ~, 600 for him, which he promptly
refused. He also received hatterlng
offer TO exhibit the animal in the principal
towns of Montana. No such phenome-
non, or whatever 1t may be called, was
ever heard of before. and the horse, VIII
prove q great advertisement to Spokane
Falls when placed on exhibition.

THECHASE RESUMED.
HOT PURSUIT AGAIN OF THE ITATA
BLYTHE CHARLESTON.
The Chilean Again Has Two Days Lead
Did the Esmeraida supply the Itata
with Coal?
lBy Telegraph to the pIspatch.l

WASHINGTON. ID. O., May 1s.-Just before
4 o'clock this afternoon the Navy Depart
ment received confirmation Of the press
dispatch TO the effect that the Charleston
sailed southwark from Acapulco last eve
ming, leaving tho Esmeralda in port.
There was no word of the itata. The pre-
sumption is that the Charleston's COM
mander was satisfied that the Itata had
passed Acapulco either before he arrived
there or while he lay in port and that he
has resumed the long chase. IL is esti-
mated that the Itata has been steaming
along at about seven knots, and az she
was ten days out last Friday night she
should at that time have been just off
Acapulco, where, II is reported from that
place, she met the Esmeralda. AS she Is a
much smaller vessel than the Esmeralda
and burns very much less coal il is re-
garded as within the probabilities that the
latter vessel might have supplied her with
tins necessary article, which would account
for the strait the war-ship is now in re-
sDecting further supply Of coal.
TEE START OF THE IrATA.
II il be true that the Itata was of Acapul-
co Friday night she had two full days
/ start Of the Charleston when the latter
started again IN pursuit last nlght. ms
IS about the same lead that she had when
! she started from San Diego, 80 that 1t does
not appear that the chase is any nearer a
conclusion. But. if the two vessels now
follow the same course. the Charleston,
steaming at fourteen knots, should come
MP with the Itata by tomorrow night.
This event, of course, is based upon the
assumption, which is not founded upon a
strong probability. that the two vessels
are steering exactly the same course. II
the Charleston passes the Itata. the next
nom is Panama, about 200 miles from
| Acapulco. OF Payta, Peru. still further
! down the coast. As it is, the vessels have
probably covered less than half the dis
lance to Iquique, the nearest Chilean
| mort
