HAS the American girl learned to
cook? A poet in the Chicago Herald
leads us to think that she has. Not
long ago the main body of United
States poets was occupied with show
ing that. however great our girls at
fractions and accomplishments might
be in other respects, they didn' know
how to cook. This new Western bard
drops that subject as if the cooking
propaganda had been successful, and
takes up the misfortune that. al
though the knowledge Of the women
of to-day is immense, they will get
off a street car backward" Next to
acquiring the habit Of having her
change ready to hand at the elevated
stations, the most valuable improve
ment of which woman, bless her
heart, is susceptible lies in learning
TO face the horses when getting off
the street cars, and, in getting on
and off, always TO take hold Of the
handle toward the front. We say
this not for our own particular
benefit, meaning mans, but for
womanS.

ROSEBERRG, the famous jumping
horse. died III Chicago Of injuries re-
ceiyed in an attempt made TO clear a
bar feet D inches high. His record
was : feet - inches. The pathos of
Roseberry's death will perhaps lead
to considerable talk of the cruelty of
forcing dumb animals to tests Of
agility and speed. But i'll such Il
case as this the cXtenuation is almost
adequate. If the performances of
the animals We're pcrfunctOrv the
cruelty would bc obvious. hut the
race horse loves the track even better
than the Jockey. and it is not Il forced
suppUSitiom that RoSeherry had a
consciousness Of the feat which he
attempted and strong delight i'll
the attempt. and was, all in all as
free Il moral agent in the matter aS
his rider. Men are committing sui
eide every day in 4 wild struggle to
accomplish the impossible. There
may be a stronger pat hos in the death
Of IL horse under similar Circum-
stances. but the principal reasons for
this are the uniqueneSS Of the event
and the fact that the beast has no
tongue with which to describe the
humiliation of his defeat or the agony
of his last hours.

All our permanent residents among
the birds, both large and small, are com
paratively limited in their ranges. The
crow is nearly as local as the wood
chuck. lie goes farther from home in
quest Of food, but his territory is well
defined, both winter and summer. His
place of roosting remains the same year
after year. Once, while spending q few
days at a mountain lake nearly sur
rounded by deep woods, my attention
was attracted each night, just at sun
down, by an osprey that always came
from the same direction, dipped into the
lake as he passed over it for a sip of its
pure water and disappeared in the woods
beyond.
The routine Of his life was probably
as marked as that Of any of ours He
Eshed the waters of the Delaware all
day, probably never going beyond a GER
tain limit, and returned each night at
shutdown, as punctual rs a day laborer,
to his retreat in the forest The sip of
water, toe, from the lake he never failed
to take.
Ali the facts we possess in regard to
the habits of the song birds in this re-
spect point to the conclusion that the
same individuals return to the same 10.
calities year after year to nest and to
rear their young. John Burroughs in

Examining into the matter Of blum
ders, particularly in tracing the course
of the mistakes, well meant" in our
own lives, when we look back upon
them with the cooler understanding of
later years we are constrained to con-
fess that the mistake" must have been
intended to be there, as well as the cor
rect action, because the plan of our de-
velopment has included both. Continu-
ing to study clearly and deeply we must
acknowledge that the mistakes and err
rOrs-nay, the very sins-when forsaken
and forgiven, have helped the soul up
ward; that all lave worked together to
accomplish the result sought; that they
must have been put there and meant 50
to be, and so that our "blunders" were
not blunders ut all, but although we
sowed and watered often amiss there
was always some increase given which
achieved the good we aimed at, but
failed to reach.
And deepest of all we see that the
divine love, which saw the end from the
beginning, bore with a tender compass
sion to look upon our struggles, our
weeping, our disheartened signs. , All
infinitely greater it is, but like to the
love we bear our own children, which is
so deep and true that we endure to treat
them harshly, and with seeming cruelty
behold their tears, knowing surely that
one day they will comprehend all the

A Live Snake In a woman's Arm.

There lives, or did quite recently, near
Columbia, S. c., a woman afflicted in q
manner that makes ones flesh creep to
think Of it. For more than the third Of
a century she has carried live snake
under the skin Of one of her arms. How
the reptile first found Judgment in its
queer situation is as much of a puzzle to
the old lady as it is to the hundreds who
have visited her for the purpose Of view
ing the long welt where the unwelcome
creature lies encysted.
When the lady first noticed the bow
shaped ridge on her arm it was Of about
the diameter Of pin, and less than two
inches in length. During the many
years that it has safely nestled in her
flesh it has grown from mere thread 10
a snake a foot long and as large as a
lead pencil The eyes of the creature
are plainly visible through the skin, and
the scales can be felt by rubbing the
finger along the welt formed by its body.
Physicians pronounce it most re-
markable freak. and have underworld,
without success, to prevail upon the old
lady to have it removed. Philadelphia

STORIES OF THE DAY.



A we'll known Presbyterian minister.
who recently came home from his vaca-
ton, was recently given a reception and
large number of his brother ministers
were in attendance to welcome him
home. AS usual, the traveller related his
experiences while away from his flock in
very interesting manner, and told
many queer stories. This led TO story
telling and apparently each one tried
who could tell the best story
One minister in the course Of his story
said, "Why talk about hot weather. When
passed through the Needles, Wash.
ingtOn state it was so hot there that they
fed the hens on cracked ice 10 keep them
from laying hard boiled eggs.
Another prominent minister not to be-
outdone so easily, told n story about
a man who went hunting in California.
lie was caught in a rain storm and
crawled in crevice in one Of the large
trees for shelter The water made the
tree contract and before the man knew
| IL he was n prisoner Thinking that he
had to die, all the sins that he had com.
mitted in a life time came up before him.
One that was brought more wildly to
his mind than any Of the others was
that he had forgotten TO give his wife S.
for the missionary society before leaving
home This made him feel so small that
he slid out of his prison with ease. There
is no doubt in the minds of the people
now who can tell the best story.

Magistrate Smith held lively seance
in his Office last night. His patience was
not taxed because that is untaxable; but
the walls Of his Office and his private
room were taxed in a high degree In
fact they almost bulged in trying to
Withstand the pressure of hundred or
so negroes who had gathered to witness
much mixed legal contest between
Emily Tiney, her husband, Dora Gibbs,
Martha Postles and Rosa Ponzo.
Emily is very black her husband is n
little blacker and he incurred his wife's
jealousy by visiting, as alleged, ma
hogany colored woman last Saturday
night. Emily gave three distinct and
pronounced raps at her so.called rivals
door, simply TO let her husband know
she was around Some abusive language
followed, possibly little swearing, but
the swearing of that morning was not a
marker to the swearing of last night.
Every witness kissed the Bible with n re
sounding smack and then told truth, all
but the truth, with glibbest Of glib tom
CUES and redoubtable lack of memory.
The outcome Of the whole racket was
that Emily Tiney was put under 500
bonds to keep the peace, while Dora
Gibbs, Martha Postles and Rosa Ponzo
were discharged Mr. Tiney walked of
with a smile of derision on his face and
his broad back turned disdainfully
toward his wife,

NJ stronger ey .lence of the safety Of
electric lighting installations can be
afforded than the fact that a great many
explosives factories are now being lit by
electricity. 1t Is obvious that in a building
where The preparation Of inhammable
or highly explosive substances is carried
on very special care should be taken in
order TO avoid even the smallest risk,
and powder manufacturers now find
that The electric light adds a consider
able percentage over gas TO the chances
Of safe operation. While electricity in
creases the safety Of this branch Of in
dustry in one way it lessons it in an
other There is a great deal Of free cleo
tricity thrown off in various stages of
manufacture, and the disposition of this,
so far as it can be removed ont of harms
way. is n serious question.
The charge Of a powder cake press
with ebonite plates may practically be
considered as an electric pile, and q
large amount of friction or electric in.
huence from outside may cause a suffi.
cient electric charge to give off sparks
Several undisputed cases Of this kind
have been known. Another source OF
danger from friction occurs during the
glazing, rounding and sieving Of gun
powder. The powder is subjected to a
constant rubbing Of its particles against
each other and during the glazing es
pecially there is danger Of electricity ac
cumulating.
Therefore precautions should be talger
in order to convey away any charge thai
may accumulate in the glazing barrels
