AN ENGLISH HERO.

He Saves His would-Be Rescuer from \
et watery Grave. A
An exciting story of the rescue from
drowning Of a Japanese, by an English
man whose life the Japanese himself
had set out to save, is told in q Japanese
paper, the Kobe Shimbun. The Eng
lishman was n resident of Toxic. Be-
ing on his way to Yokohama, and flnd-
ing no ferryboat, owing to the swollen
state of the river, he determined to
swim across with his clothing in bun
die tied on his head. t-
The daring attempt attracted crowd
Of sightseers, one Of whom, observing
that the stranger was apparently in diff
aculty, plunged in and swan to his res
cue. The Japanese was good sw inn
mer, but the waters ran swiftly, his
strength gave out, and he was carried
downstream. Then arose n cry from
the spectators, for they saw that the
Japanese was going to sink o.tt
BY this time the Englishman had al
most reached the opposite bank, hut
when he heard the cries of the crowd
he turned about, and seeing the drown
ing Japanese, he again faced the cur
rent, and coming up with the drowning
man caught him with one arm, and
swimming with the other, hand he
brought him ashore amid the cheers Of
the crowd.
"How chiv alrous was his actionl" ex-
clnims the Japanese journalist in con-
clusion. "Ilis name we know not but
he has our highest admiration"

LIKE ELIJAH OF OLD.

How a Calf Was Translated Bodily to
the Heavenly Grazing Grounds.
A cattleman OF the Choctaw nation
tells a remarkable story of cyclone
which he witnessed in the Indian ter
ritory. Said he: at was about three
o'clock on recent afternoon that dark
clouds appeared in the southwest,
and In few moments the clouds
turned light blue and it seemed as II
they were on fire with lightning. A
perfect calm prevailed and the heat
was suffocating. The clouds seemed
to split in the middle, going east
and northwest. Then heard a
low, rumbling noise, like continuous
thunder. On the prairie WINS bunch
Of cattle which belonged to man
named Corning. The terrific wind, or
what you might call tornado, lifted
the cattle into the air some fifty feet
and dashed them into the trees, killing
them outright Now, | am going to
tell you something that may seem In
credible, but is nevertheless the truth:
saw a calf carried up into the clouds
and disappear. The animal went round
and round in circle until lost to view.
A vigilant search was made for tho
calf, but It has never been seen since.
The wind tore things up for a mile or
so, when It spent its force. Rain and
hail followed in the wake Of the storm
and number Of trees were uprooted.
The storm was confined to the wood
and did not reach the crops in tho
clearings."

Not many travellers visit Carrara,
where the finest Of marble Is constant

many centuries. but, once there, much
may be found In the way of legend and
scenery to occupy the curious mind. In
Vulnerable stories float about the place,
says writer In Cornhill, concerning
the existence Of hidden treasures.
Gold has often been found in the
neighborhood of the town. and not very
long ago crock Of gold coins was nm
earthed beneath one Of the streets.
A most curious experience, however,
was that of quarryman who, in one Of
his rambles, stumbled upon an old de-
serted quarry, within which, half
buried in grass and brambles, lay an
enormous block of heavy marble. B On
examining it, he found q number OF
letters rudely cut, and half-hidden un-
der a crust of dirt. With some diff

words: blessed is he who shall turn

The man at once jumped at the con.
clusion that he had stumbled upon
hidden treasure, and that his fortune
was made. He rushed home and col

A PIne-poilen storm.

A few mornings ago on arising resi-
dents Of Nashville, Tenn, were sur
prised and somewhat alarmed TO find
the ground covered with yellow de-
posit resembling powdered sulphur,
which for time II was supposed to be.
The substance was soon found, how
ever, TO be the pollen Of pines, carried
by the winds from strip Of Pine
forest extending from Louisiana
through North Carolina TO Virginia.
The force OF the winds Is so great and
pine pollen so light that the latter Is
sometimes carried from the pine re-
gions to Chicago In such vast quantities
that the waters Of Lake Michigan for
miles outside the city limits are COW
cred with thick, yellow scnm. This
pollen, although minute In tho present
age, in prehistoric times was OF great
size, spores Of some species OF lyco-
podiums and selagenellas, which are
allied TO tho coniferm, having diam
eter Of one-sixtecnth 0. an inch, and
composed alrnost entirely some Of tho
Europonn coal beds.

RICH MEN or THE FUTURE.
How to Realize the Full Value Of
Money.

How to Realize the Full Value OF
Money.
A leather merchant, not generally
known to be a wealthy man, died some
months ago In New York. A lawsuit
arose from his will, which distributed
great legacies among score of col.
leges. The suit was compromised, and
the legacies will be paid. Out of the
estate of this unknown. millionaire
nearly four million dollars will be given
to thirty-five colleges; half million
more will be divided between several
hospitals,
1t is impossible, says the Youths
Companion, to estimate the good To
students and tho sick that these be-
quests insure for years and years to
come. There Is no doubt, however,
that in general rich mans money had
better be given away before his. death
than after it.
Many years may pass between the
making Of q fortune and the carrying
out Of the makers will. Besides this
useless delay there Is the danger that
beqnests win be diverted from their in
tended purpose. While man Is alive,
he can see that his money Is spent as
he wishes. After his death there is no
telling what legal contentious and un-
foreseen difficulties may bring about.
Money in itself is worth nothing. Its
only value lies in what one can do with
1t. Many young people are going to
make fortunes within the next genera
ton or two. II they win devote share
Of their wealth, while they can still
control it. TO the wise, generous service
of their fellow-men. the value OF money
win be realized as never before.

Ths Goddess Of Chance Invoked by Mr.
Stanley In Africa.


Ths Goddess OF Chance Invoked by Mr..
5s Stanley In Africa.
In little speech to the New York
Press club the other evening Henry NJ
Stanley said:
In Central Africa Il was not the FASH
ion to indulge in after-dinner oratory
and he was consequently somewhat out
of practice. Several tines in his career
he had been compell,d 70 decide in
moment what course 81 action to pur-
sue. In his first African enterprise he
found himself stri,pdF1 on.-qh African
island without friends and without mon
ey. This was nineteen years ago. He
had to decide in moment what to do,
and he determined to 90 on. He raised
loan Of thirty thousand dollars in a
few hours by paying five thousand dol
lars premium, and went ahead until,
after lapse of nine months, he found
David Livingstone, the object of his
search.
When he reached the spot where Liv-
ingstone had turned back he was again
confronted with the necessity of instan-
taneous decision. He was in guam
dairy. II he turned back he would stamp
his enterprise with failure. II he went
on he knew not what would happen.
He held consultation with his lieuten-
ant, and the latter suggested that the
matter might be settled by tossing a
coin. He accepted the suggestion and
tossed up rupee, The coin decided
against going on. But Stanley was not
satisfied. He tossed again. and still
again, and each time the coin said that
Stmley should not go on. Then he had
recourse to long and short straws and
three times this divination declared
that the explorer should turn back.
But he was still not satisfied to 60
back. He thought that something must
be the matter with the rupee and the
straws, and SO he cast aside the prophe-
cies Of both and went on following the
course Of the great river until he found
whence 1t came. When he returned to
London after this expedition he found
the Geographical society debating
whether it should call him a pirate or
give him dinner. 1t finally decided to
give him dinner. s

INVITED HIMSELF.
An Astor-wIiling Guest who vvas Not In
II at tho wedding.

An Astor-Wfiling Guest Who Was Not In
II at tho Wedding.
There is an amusing story as to how
an Englishman who was visiting this
country at the time Of the Astor-W Willing
wedding managed to get his name in
the papers as one Of the guests.
It seems, says the Chicago News, the
Englishman made his headquarters in
New York, wheres he is pretty well
known, and enjoys the company of a
few chosen friends uponi his stated
visits to this country. He happened to
be in the metropolis at the time the
wedding was talked about, and joking
ly said that he had received an invita-
tion. His acquaintances looked at him
in blank amazement. Not'one Of their
set had been invited to the ceremony,
and they secretly wondered how on
earth the Englishman had managed it.
Curiosity. finally predoniinated, and
after considerable hesitation the ques-
ton was put pointblank, when the
Englishman laughingly said it was a
joke, but, said he. I'M bet anyone
here that can go over to Philadelphia
as one Of the guests"
The bet was taken wit,acoasiderable
odds in the Englishman's favor. Sew
eral days before the swell ceremony oc-
CURED the Londoner secretly ascer-
tanned where the Astors would stop
when in the city. Accordingly he went
over and selected suite of the best
rooms obtainable at the same hotel,
and when the wedding guests began to
arrive he came with the crowd, ac-
companied by valet land goodly
amount Of luggage. He was at once
set down as an Astor -,est, and his
English manners and accent, which
were closely observed, were greatly in
his favor. When the reporter came
around to get the list Of names the
Englishman took special pain to see
that his name was printed correctly,
and, although he never went near the
wedding, he had the cheeikto return to
New York and claim his bet.
All the evidence was in bis favor, for
both Philadelphia and New York jour-
nails gave publicity to his rame, and his
friends to this day do not know that
they were shamefully dipped.
