Statue of Columbus for santo Domingo

Statue of Columbus for Santo Domingo.
The Ames Manufacturing company
has received the contract for large
bronze statue of Christopher Columbus
to be erected at ancient Isabella, on the
island of Santo Domingo, where Colum-
bus made his first settlement. The idea
was conceived by Thomas H. Cummins,
of Boston, and has been carried through
a Catholic newspaper in that city. The
statue was made from designs of r.
Andrew of the State Normal Art school,
and the model was prepared by Alois
Buyens, of Ghent. The statue repre-
sents Columbus standing with the left
hand extended upward in thanksgiving
while the right points to the first settle
ment in the New World on a sphere
below.
The figure is feet and inches high
and will be mounted on a pyramid of
coral and limestone 12 feet high, which
will be crowned with a capstone of
dressed granite. The people in charge
of the monument have been given the
land necessary for the foundation of the
monument, and the republic of Santo Do
mingo has agreed TO allow the importa-
tion of the statue and the foundation
free of duty and to care for the memorial
as public property.-Cor. Springfield
Republican.

Matching Teeth.

Perhaps the greatest difficulty that
dentists meet with is the matching of
false teeth with the natural teeth of their
customers. The tooth factories supply
dentists with rings upon which are strung
thin short metal bars, each carrying a
tooth at its'extremity. There are twen-
ty-five of these sample teeth that run all
the way from nearly white to shade
that is almost olive. Some one of the
twenty-five usually almost matches the
patients natural teeth, and, at any rate,
enables the dentist to match the teeth
by application at the factory.-New York

While Edgar Bates, a geologist, of
Angola, was prospecting in Jackson
county, Mich, he discovered in a stream
a peculiarly marked stone, rudely cut
by blunt instrument With the aid of
a microscope he was able to decipher an
inscription running to this effect: Sam
uel Bernet: l was taken by the Indians
near Sanduslly, and l expect never to
reach that place. If my friends l
am to be burned. April 16, 1900" The
stone on which this was engraved was a
peculiar kind of slate, of which none
exists in Michigan, and Mr.. Bates is
confident that the relic is genuine and
of high value.-Philadelphia Ledger.

A 100, 900 Pound Chin of a Rock.

A stone quarry company of Bedford,
Ind, has shipped the largest single
block of stone ever quarried and shipped
in the United States. The block was ~
feet inches long, 6 feet 3 inches high
and feet inches wide, containing 500
cubic feet, and weighed 100000 pounds.
The car on which it was shipped had to
be ordered specially for it, and was the
car that was built for the purpose of
transporting the thirty-foot cannon sent
by the government to the Pacific coast q
few months since. The stone is perfect,
not having flaw or defect. .-Indianapo-

Digging Greens.

1t is time to pick greens, or, rather,
dig greens. Travelling the rural roads
in Connecticut just now, especially in
the neigborhood of cities, one sees chill
dren and women on the green lots by
the roadside digging in the ground just
as fast as they can. Each one carries a
willow arm basket or tin pail, and a
short bladed case knife. The little
squads chatter and laugh and talk
gossip, and now and then one trills the
refrain of popular song. They are
not skylarking or merrymaking; they
are digging greens-red and yellow
dock, dandelions, burdock and plantain
for home consumption.
Everybody wants greens now, and
trade in them is very lively. In few
weeks the garden greens-cultivate
dandelions or spinach-will be ready to
market, and then the popular demand
for wild greens will cease. Most of the
will greens gathered by Connecticut
women and children are dandelions and
dock, but some of the bolder ones, MIN
BILE footed maidens, put on rubber boots
and slouch hats, penetrate into the tan
gled swamps, leaping from one quaking
tussock to another, and harvest a bushel
of wet and shining cowslips day.
About decayed old stumps in forest
dales skoke thrives, and they pluck it in
handfuls.
At the beginning of the season dan
delion greens are worth forty or fifty
cents peck in the market, and the re-
tail dealers sell them for fifty or sixty
cents; later the price runs down to
twenty-five cents a peck.-Cor. New
York Sun.

A Telephone In Every Room.

The new hotel, Waldorf, is to be fitted
with telephone communication between
the Office and every room in the house.
This is a system stated to be in use in
the Adelphi, Liverpool and as a feature
of hotel service is an important one, es-
pecially in the saving of time. Instead
of pushing button and waiting for a
hall boy to answer the ring, guests can
communicate their order to the Office
at once and have it filled in one-half the
time.-New York World.

Animals That Do Not Drink.

Darwin states in his "Voyage of a
Naturalist" that unless the huanacoes,
or wild llamas of Patagonia, drink salt
water, in many localities they must drink
none at all. The large and interesting
group of sloths are alike in never drink
ing. A parrot is said to have lived in
The Geological gardens, Regent park, for
ifty-two years without drop of water.

HELPING OTHERS.

If there be some weaker one,
Give me strength to help him on;
If n binder soul there be.
Let me guide him nearer thee:
Make my mortal dreams come true
With the work fain would do;
Glothe with life the weak intent,
Let me be the thing meant:
Let me find in thy employ
Peace, that dearer is than joy;
Out of self to love be led,
And to Heaven acclimated.
Until all things sweet and good
Seem my nature habitude.

"Castoria is the best remedy for children of

far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are

The conduct Of birds ia sometimes pecu-

ADD on the Hill are two peculiar cases Of

not less notable and perhaps less readily
understood than that Of a kipgbird who
some years ago made her nest on the lower

whenever that person appeared, coming

Next day the cat was seen to go to a low

reaching up and getting hold Of It he was
enjoying a nice little swing all by himself
