An Early Georgia Monster.

In the fore part of August, 1912, party
of hunters found, in mountainous region
now known as Rabun county, Ga, q
being nearly eight feet high, covered with
blush hair and having a human face
adorned with immense ears, resent bling
those of an ass. The creature was stone
deaf, and on that account seemed wholly
unconscious OF the approach of the men.
This monster seems, from old accounts, to
have been seen upon several occasions dur
the next four years.
In 1916 number of adventures from
Virginia, most of them surveyors working
up the UNEMPLOYED portions of Georgia and
the Carolinas, formed themselves into a
party for the express purpose of capturing
the uncanny being, if possible They
secured the hills and valleys for several
days, and at last returned unsuccessful to
the starting point.
The many tales told of this extraordinary
being seem to have created quite a stir all
along the Atlantic coast. A printed cir
cular issued by land company in 1915
says; THE climate of Georgia is exceeding
ly mild, the soil productive, and the dan
ger of attack from uncouth beasts, which
are represented as being half beast and
half man, are fairy tales not worthy of
consideration. st. Louis Republic,

CATTLE.

WICHITA, May 70.
The cattle supply was small today, and
trading was very quiet. There was only a
few dry-ted cattle received and they came
in too late to sell. The demand was strong
for good butcher stuff. Grassy cattle are
hard to dispose of and prices are low.
Markets at Kansas City and Chicago were
steady or better on dry-fed stuffs.

it well enough too; but great guns!
when l took up next mornings paper

bosky dells, slumbrous musings over the
dimpled waters of the gurgling brook,
the sodghing of summer breezes, the
roar and rush Of the winters storm, the
merry singing of birds, the frolickngs Of

1t Is Composed of Envelopes from
Young Lady's Correspondents.
Buffalo Inquirer
"Our house is all topsy turvey. The paper
hangers are working in every room but one."
said a Prospect avenue girl last night.
"And why one exception ?'' asked the young
man whose feet were dangling from the
veranda rail and who assumes to ask questions
on all subjects. 'Why don't you make clean
sweep of 1t and paper the whole house ?''
"Pspered the other room myself"
'sYou did? cried four voices at once
"Yes, and every one of yon furnished part
OF the material. Come along all of you and
I'll show you.''
There was the room and surely 1t was oddly
decorated. The four walls were papered with
envelopes addressed in all manner, of hands
and with postmarks from New York to San
Francisco.
For two years this maiden, 80 original,
saved all the envelopes which brought her
letters and when she had enough she took q
pot Of paste and covered her walls.
The letters were pasted on in the order of
their coming and made quite serial story.
They are all shades and sizes and of several
tints, and one can easily trace the regular
here and there is one which has some special
significance.
One in black border is from dear college
chum whose mother had just died, and not
far away is one which brought the tidings of
happy marriage of another chum in distant
Italy.

change it for any wallpaper Buffalo could

THE NEW FRENCH MINISTER.
The Distinguished Dipiom attic Career of
NJ. Patenotre.

The Distinguished Diplom attic Career of
NJ. Patenotre.
Courier Des Etats Unis
A Paris dispatch reports the appointment
of NJ. Patenotre to the post of Minister
Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraordinary of
France to Washington in place of NJ. Rous-
tan, sent to the French embassy at Madrid.
The French Government undoubtedly wished
to give an evidence of It's high consideration
for the United States in choosing as the repre-
sentative of the republic at Washington one
OF the most distinguished of our diplomatic
officials. NJ Patenotre was French Minister
In Sweden in 1880. From there the French
Government sent him In charge OF the lega-
tion at Peking, where he had, two years later,
to fulfill mission requiring the highest dip
lomatic qualities. 1t was M. Patenotre who
negotiated on June 9, 1885, the Tien-Tsin
treaty, which put an end to the difficult com
picatons existing between France and
China, and which settled the An
nam and Tonking question. During
several years Nj. Patenotre had to deal with
situation rendered extremely delicate through
the obstacles offered to the pacifcation Of the
Tonking provinces on the Chinese border, and
also through the ever-recurrng obstacles OPP
posed to the deimitation of the new French
possessions in Indo-China. Amid those diff
culties of an exceptional character M. Pate
notre distinguished himself by a tact and
ffrmness which have conquered for him the
respect of everybody in France and abroad.
NJ. Patenotre, appointed French Minister to
Morocco, has rendered more services in a
country where French interests are constantly
threatened by English rivalry. To him
Is due the recent conclusion of
commercial treaty with the Moorish
Sultan, which insures to France several
advantages and privileges of such a nature
that they will consolidate her influence in that
region, where her policy leans toward grad
ual extension in the direction of the western
part Of our Algerian territory. To sum up
the personality of NJ Patenotre we do not
doubt it will be welcome at Washington. He
will do honor to our country, and contribute
still more to strengthen the bonds of mutual
esteem and affection between the two great
republics.

Freemasonry OF Boards.

Boston transcript
A man with long beard always makes the
acquaintance of other men with long boards.
Their boards are the only common friends
they need, and no man with such beard will
ever suspect evil of another man with a long
beard. Thousands of dollars have been bor-
rowed with nothing but a beard for security.
The acquaintance generally begins in the same
way.
ga fine day, sir,n says one long bearded
man to the other. (They have been glancing
at each other for some time In a friendly sort
of way.) The other makes a casual reply about
the weather.
'sGood weather for whiskers to grow,n says
the first, jocularly.
"That's fact" says the other; show long
have you been growing?"
"Just seventeen years last Thanksgiving"
"Well, l beat you by year and a half"
Then they compare measurements, and from
that time they get on famously This is as
good a means of introduction as being very
fat. Did you ever notice how quickly two fat
men get acquainted, and from comparing
weights advance all to all sorts of friendly
confdences2

How Curious Chicago Ordinance VIII
BE Evaded.
Detroit News.
One of the things which will be visible to
people who go to Chicago during the Worlds
Fair will be line of 'tColumbian coaches,n
whereof the conductors will be in every case
neatly uniformed young women. They will
wear snug-ftting braided jackets and bell
punches swung around their necks, and caps
something like the yachting headgear of 1891.
And they will be at work long before 1893, too.
Mr.. James l.. Dyer is the designer of the
Columbian coaches He is no more than Or
dinarily gallant, perhaps, but very practical.
Chicago has a curious provision that no
vehicle can be run on the boulevards without
lady aboard. The object of this ordinance
is to keep the boulevards forpleasure driving
to keep off business wagons and drays on the
one hand and fast trotters driven by 'shorsey''
men on the other AS Mr. Dyer says; 81 can
ride down Michigan boulevard on a load Of
hay if have a lady with me, but can't make
the same trip alone in grocer's delivery
wagon. During the Worlds Fair it will be
absolutely necessary to utilize the boulevards
for passenger traffic, and VIC propose to evade
an unjust ordinance by carrying our lady
passengers in the shape of conductors.

1t Made the Prince Smile.

From the German.
Charles ", in 1549, had homage paid to his
son Philip, but the gloomy Prince, who had
been brought up with Spanish severity, found
no pleasure at the merry feasts given at this
a plan that moved Philips seriousness. On a
wagon which was in the parade given in Phil
ip's honor there was an organ, the pipes of
which consisted OF receptacles wherein cats of
different ages and voices were imprisoned.

chorus was heard, as the boys dressed as mon
keys, dogs and little bears, danced about. The
multitude fairly rolled with wild laughter at
this performance and even the gloomy Philip
could not repress smile. 1t was said later
that this was the only smile that the Neither

Beeohnut and Chestnut Flour.

Philadelphia Times.
Experiments in the botanic garden Of Turin,
Italy, proves that both the beech and the wild
chestnut can be improved by cultivation so as
to yield nuts nearly thrice the size of the
spontaneous products. Considering the fact
that nutrltive bread can be made from nut
-four (polenta, as the Sardinians call it) it
seems possible that in overpopulated countries
the food problem VIII be solved by the sub
stitution of nut trees for cereals. A bread
yielding tree of the species named would out
live wheat 200 times. After reaching maturity

trouble of plowing, wedding, and fertilizing,
harvesting would become woodland picnic,
our breadstuff plantations would furnish US
fuel in winter and berries In spring and would
shelter swarms of Notwithstanding birds.
Woodlands, moreover, prevent draughts, and
their extension would recover many lost

For His Starving Children.


gathered on corner of Cedar street, Lewis
ton. One man pulled silver watch from his
other pocket he fshed up a dozen matches.
"I'll give this watch,'' he said, "to whoever
will hold match In his thumb and finger,
blaze down, till it burns up completely"
One fellow tried it and dropped the match
when it began to burn. Another, and still
another did the same. Then came one who
was out of work and had wife and little
babies at home. He took the match and held
1t till 1t was charred between thumb and
finger and the nails on the finger and thumb
were burned up. "Why did you do that for a
watch?" asked some one. "Oh, l must have
money, and burn is better than seeing one's
little children starve," he answered, as he
walked off with the watch.

She Wanted to Know the Standing of Her
American Employers Before Coming.
Lowell Arena.
An incident happened the other day that
will make a smile run over the faces of people
in Lowell society. A Lowell family now in
Europe, whose social standing is the best, and
whose financial standing is the envy of many,
engaged clever young lady in Vienna to act
as governess in the family, to tutor the chill
dren. This young oman, Miss Elizabeth
Hoffman, has served In similar capacity in
the family of Prince Bismarck, and she wanted
to be sure that everything was all right before
she hazarded her fortunes in America.
Through the German consul in Boston the
necessary inquiries were made under the seal
of the German Empire of Mayor Fifield. His
Honor smiled when he read the letter, and
wrote reply vouching for the family in every
way, and advising the fair Viennese that she
might safely trust herself to the Lowell peo-
pie with the certainty of getting her cash
regularly and without the danger OF having
to associate with any detrimental social ele-
ments This is changing things with VEN
geance, and when people have got to show
their character before their servants will hire
with them it begins to look as though the
millennium was coming.

Music on Tap in Hoteis.

of the programme for the afternoon or even
