The Journal is first of all newspaper.
It's primary object is to publish the news,

great news agencies, which cover foreign
countries as well as the entire United

events and occurrences that are likely
to be of particular interest to the Indi-

Local Color" In Fiction.

Among the most pleasing occupations OF
our literary times has been the hunt foi
local color. "u 1t has beenCa matter OF
faith. Everybody has believed in it as
something you could buy, like paint, in
quantities needed for your palette. 1t has
been frankly admitted that local color is .
thing Indispensable, especially in novel.
and to some extent in an essay in biogra.
ply. Indeed, there, is scarcely any mix
ture that is not improved by it. This is SC
we'll understood that when a writer is
about to put his fiction into limits of time
and space he finds it to his advantage to get,
either by letter or persona! visit and inspec,
tion, some local color to make vivid, If not
real, the scenery and personages of his rep
resentation. ...,g,,y .a--.. .-....
Very often all he needs is certain word,
or phrases or at nosta dialect. There is
probably more marketable local color in q
dialect than in any other thing chat can be
acquired. Giving knowledge Of the pre-
vailing wind, the shape of the hills, thea
titude of nature in that locality toward
the residents, and the dialect, story car
be made so saturated with local color tina,
it would deceive almost anybody-except
perhaps, such a person as Hawthorne was

Speaking of Dates.

"Did you ever notice the curious diff
ference in the sexes which is shown in
the way a man or woman fixes a
date?" remarked a gentleman to a lady
the other day. "You ask a man when
such and such a thing happened, and he
always answers, lin the year so and so,
or, about 1900 and something;;' but the
woman invariably says, About so many
years ago. or, it was SO many years
after I was married. or, the year after
'Teddie was born,' and so on" -....

why the Gar Went to KieI..

There is. not another place, in the
world where the emperor of Russia
feels SO secure and SO easy in his mind
as at the court of his father-in-law
King Christian of Denmark. They were
sitting together on the day of the golden
wedding of the king, when the emperor,
in the exuberance of his feelings of com
fort, said that he wished he could think
of something by which he could give to
his beloved father very great pleasure.
"You could not give me a greater
pleasure" replied the king, ethan ]
should feel at your resolve to go and pay
a visit to the emperor of Germany"
The car consented, but he would not
go to Berlin. Thus the meeting at Kiel
was arranged. What all the cleverest
moves of the diplomats Of Germany had
failed to accomplish a wise prayer of
old King Christian thus easily brought
about.-Chicago Times. ga7rs o'

His Reluctance Explained.

A well known artist, who hitherto ha,
been a great enthusiastic for the propagation
of "art among the Masses" sends us the
following story, which leads him to take a
rather gloomy yiewof the situation. Foi
the purpose Of picture on which he was
engaged he required a well kept donkey a;
model and commissioned a friend to hire
such an animal. A costermonger was
found possessed of one in every way suit
able, and was told that an artist would
glad to paint the ''moke." ..,,..
2 The owner looked annoyed, even angry
at the request Later he called at the gen
tleman's house and said, 81 understand
you want to paint my donkey" Eyes
replied the artist, 81 shall be very pleased
if you will allow me-, Why" continued
the coster, "ain't he good enough color
already?" From a painters point OF view
the question was rnanswerable, and, SET

The muscular Strength of Trout.

- b j. q Z
We sat for an hour or more on the east
bank of the Beaverkill at Rockland and
watched the trout of that celebrated
river passing over the dam, which is
nearly three feet high, with about a
4-inch volume of water pouring over it.
The trout ranged in size from ten to
eighteen inches, and during the time we
sat there at least twenty managed to get
over, In many instances first attempt
failed, owing, however, more to an APP
parent want of judgment, or perhaps of
experience, than from lack of physical
ability in the fish to accomplish the feat,
the smaller fish as rule failing to get
over in the first effort. l.sr, ,...s
But few of the larger fish made a
clean jump into the smooth water above
the apron of the dam; most of them
passed perpendicularly up the falling
waters and with apparent ease. These
fish were enabled to swim straight up
this downpour of the waters by the
great muscular power they possessed;
there was. no trick, no sleight of hand
about tit was pure strength of body,
which is evidently conferred in the pc
duncle or tail and the tail fin.
They actually sculled their bodies up
this comparatively dense mass of water.
The query naturally arises: If 10
inch trout can swim up such fall,
what is the capacity of salmon Of forty
inches under similar conditions Amer

A Ten Thousand Year Clock.

Herr A. Noil, of Berlingen, Germany,
has constructed the most marvellous
timepiece that was ever evolved from
the human mind. Calculations based
on two years of solid going prove what
the maker claims for his wonderful
clock, viz, that it will run for 10000
years without winding. Hands on the
dial point to the time of day, the day,
the week, months, seasons and years. 1t
also calculates the changes in the moon
and tells when the sun is fast" or
'sslow." The clock is the result of five
years of patient, arduous labor.-St.
Louis Republic.

Miss Pope and Her Pockets.

While women are bewailing their re,
striction to one Of the most inconyenient q,

of Miss Pope and her pockets She taught
school at too great, a, distance from hei
home to take her meals there, accordingly
she built around the hem OF her dress Q
series of pockets. In one she carried hel
lunch, in another herdinner; the remaining
pockets held her knife, fork, spoon, salt
cellar, pepper mill, small plate, a nap

years ago, when his daring feats on
horseback made him famous all over the
world. He is seventy-four wears old

mas nothing else to do he gets out his

ration OF the ancient farmhouse in

The ceiling of the dining room is hid
den in wonderful designs traced in vivid
colors. There is no attempt at blending
or compounding colors, They are laid
on as they come from the poi and tubes.
and the patterns are original screstions.
Even the stove has come in for a base
line of vivid decoration, and one of the
two clocks in the room is completely
covered with paint. The picture frames
are decorated; the mantel has a gener-
Gus share of decoration; the oilcloth
table covers have added designs the
maker never contemplated, and even the
chairs have been treated to display of
the cold mans handiwork. On the walls,
and even on the doors, he has oil paint
ings and compositions from his brush.
They are not high art, but they are very
effective and show considerable genius.
