A Boy Life saver.

Dennis p. Mccarthy, sixteen-year-
old Brookline lad. performed an ao.
the other day which not only displayed
courage but a rare presence of mind in
saving the life of a two-year- child
of Joseph Cariere, says the Boston
HerdLa.
Young Mccarthy was at work re-
pairing the roof of his fathers barn off
Boylston street, which abuts on the
village brook. A platform leads from
Mr.. McCarthy's house to the top Of the
barn. The child walked along this
platform to the roof, and before he was
noticed fell into the brook, distance
of about twenty feet.
The water was about three feet deep,
and the current was quite strong.
The child's cries attracted McCar-
thy's attention, and, realizing the stu
alton, he jumped from the building to
the Boston and Albany Railroad track.
In order to save the child's life he
had to act promptly, for the arch,
where the brook enters the tunnel, was
only 100 yards away. Mccarthy ran
down the track and reached the culvert
just in time to Jump into the brook and
grasp the little one, who was being
carried along to certain death.
BY this time large crowd had col
lected, and every one was loud in the
praise of McCarthy's courage and pres
ence of mind.

The Cat Woman.

Hardly has DR.. Koch's wonderful dis
eovery OF his consumption cure ceased TO
startle the sombre and slow going cities
uf Europe before DR.. Charcot, ''the
Frenchman most habituated to the mar
Vellous," draws the attention of the
world to ''femme-chat, or scat
woman, whom he has discovered. DR..
Charcots femme-chat is an inmate of the
Hospital Salpetriere, Paris. She is a
pretty child, about fifteen years old,
with blue eyes, and long, blonde hair
falling down her back. She is modest
and gentle up to certain moment when
the visitor suddenly beholds her eyes
"frigbtfully convulscd in their orbits,
her mouth shrivelled up, horrible
grimace distorting her features. Finally
she drops to the floor on all-fours. Then
she scampers about the room, over and
under chairs and tables, seeking every
where tor an outlet of escape, and if any
body attempts TO capture her, she splits
with the unmistakable ''pfft" of an en-
ragged cat. Then she humps her back
and gives vent to long miaulments III
erescendO, and if a bit of paper or. other
tritle be thrown to her she stretches
forth a hand and toys with it just as a
eat would. Finally, after having done
the entire cat act to perfection, she
hints, falls over on her back and the
crisis is over; the femme-chat becomes
femme once more. Al. Charcot and his
assistant, NJ. Raville. are giving this
''cat-wOman" case thorough investiga-
tiont with view to publishing the re-
suits early the coming summer. The
curious creature has been an inmate of
the hospital for over two years. -[St.

old man is still hale and hearty and, to
all appearances, likely to enjoy life for
some time longer. He has drawn pay
from the navy for ninety-six years, has
been actually In the service for ninety
of these, and it is eighty-seven years
since he first went to sea. He was
born at Halifax, Nova Scotia, April IL,
1871, while his father was stationed
there as chief clerk of the navy yard,
and, according to a custom then pre-
vailing in the case of sons of officers .or
people of influence, was placed on the
pay roll of oneo of the vessels of the navy
when he was but years old. In 1900,
when 8, he went aboard the Cleopatra
for training and four years later made
his first voyage in her. The Cleopatra,
after fight in midocean, was captured
by the French frigate Vile de Milan,
but was rescued by another British
vessel q week later. In 1903, at the
age of seventeen, he was made a Sec
ond Lieutenant, and was in many ac-
tons during the French war. He was
Second Lieutenant Of the Shannon
when that frigate defeated the Chesa-
peake in the famous fight off Boston
harbor in 1918. The Captain having
been wounded and tho First Lieute-
nant killed, the command of the frigate
and her prize devolved upon young
Wallis. He was promoted for his gal
lantry and efficiency in this action, and
in 1919 was made a Captain. The dates
Of his promotion after this were as fol-
lows: Rear Admiral, 1851; Vice Ad-
iniral, 1857; Admiral, 1868; and Adj
miral Of the Fleet, 1877. 1t was only

Army has no less than 9,349 regular

fifty feet high and are of yellowish

one sees this inscription: blouse of

Christ in 1884" The interior of the
temple is unlike that of any other place
of worship in the coultBy, and prob
ably its like has no existence outside of
Mormon cities. Leading from the yes
tibule are two doors that open into
separate aisles, one for the men and
the other for the women.
Two Latin inscriptions are still
plainly visible, but these attract less

A Clever Scheme Of Counterfsdters
for Defrauding Uncle Sam.

There arc thousands OF dollars In
counterfeit moncy In circulation through
out New York city" said member OF
tho United States Secret Service. ~ do
not refer solely TO what Is commonly
called green goods although ii is put
IN circulation by men who have dealt in
that sort OF stuff. The activity Of the
police and the heavy penalties imposed
by the courts have made the coIEterfeitcrs
tired OF lead dollars, quarters and dimes,
yet there are still number of these In
circulation, and probably always will be.
''What refer to in particular" he
continued, sis the manufacture Of bogus
money from good silver. You know
there onE 81 cents worth of metal in a
silver dollar, and an expert counterfeiter,
with his dies ard ready facilities for
coming, ean make dollar out Of gen.
uine silver just as easily as from lead.
You can readily see how q dollar made
from genuine silver would defy detec-
ton, excepting by those who are more
than ordinarily expert. The coin will
pass every time in the same place Of
business, and in nine out of ten banks--
unless the teller is watching for it. AS
matter of fact have been puzzled my
self to distinguish one Of these eoun-
terfeits from a similar coin made i'm the
United States Mint.
Well, the cost of one OF these bogus
dollars to the manufacturer is about rs
cents-61 cents for silver and about IA
cents for labor and the few other in
gradients used so that they make
clean profit of % cents on the dollar.
The counterfeiter who has a die-and
they are easy to make il one only knows
how--can live like a prince on the money
of his own manufacture without having
to rely on outside parties to dispose of
his wares for him. He can easily pay
his living expenses in silver.
but none of the men engaged in this
business are satisfied to contine their
operations to such limited scale Like
men engaged in more legitimate enter
priscs, they want to make as much money
as possible, so they resort to the methods
of the regular green goods operator
Cor disposing of their stuff The goods
'Ve sold usually at 873 cents on the dol
lar, which gives the manufacturer and
the go-between q profit of 12l cents
each.
"There is not, you see, very large
profit on single coin, but the gain is
mpch larger in the long run than on lead
coins. Ii it wasn't for the comparative |
safety in tho business no one would |
bother with it. That it is safe is illus |
tratcd by the fact that no one has even |
yet been cuugfII either IN manufacturing I
or disposing of bogus silver money. |

Heard Elephants Ear. Flap.

lately made two shooting trips to
the jungles of lower Burmah, and
each time in the midst of the greatest
hardships. The forest scenery had
the power to force itself upon the no.
tice as seeming each day more and
more impressive and magnificent,
AT such times both the silence and
the strange sounds of the jungles, each
in their different way, combine to af-
feet the sportsman; the occasional
weird hootings of the monkeys in the
treetops; the distant flap. flap of an
elephants ears breaking in upon the
perfect stiffness as you approach the
herd, or perhaps, instead, the penny
trumpet-like squeak which announces
its proximity; and, as the day wears
on, the stiffness is suddenly broken in
upon by the whirring and soon almost
deafening sound with which with one
accord the insects revive after the heat
of the afternoon. All these influences
combine to produce an effect which
those who have not experienced them
will find difficult to imagine, and those
who have experienced them must find
hard to describe.

portrait OF the new President, which

The last of the Bourbons, says the
Chicago Graphic, is succeeded by the
scion of family no less ancient, the
Fonsecas dating back to the thirteenth
century, as a powerful Spanish house,
and three centuries farther as Spanish
mobiles. A Fonseca was bishop and
spiritual adviser of King Ferdinand in
the days of Columbus, and now after
four hundred years his descendant is
the ruler of great republic, whose
discovery was almost thwarted by the
counsels of the Bishop, who saw in
Columbus theories nothing but the
illusions of a visionary.
