4 beginner is apt to be appalled, at
height of five or six feet. when he is nm
used to the exercise, and he generally
sprawls over the ground at first when
using any force, The best practice for
a novice is to use a good, stout pole,
one measuring between twelve and four
teen feet in length and about one and
three quarter inches in diameter at the
thickest part, which should be the mid
die
A pole of the length spoken of is en-
tireIy unnecessary for clearing such
heights as a novice is equal to, and he
may not need to grasp it above the mid
die in getting over the bar, but it is
well for him to get accustomed to using
full length pole for, should he be-
come at all expert, he will find that a
pole fifteen feet long is about right.
Poles are generally made of ash or
hickory, or any strong wood not too
heavy. Spruce and pine have been
used III some cases on account of their
lightness, but unless they are large
enough they are likely to break when
an extra strain is put on them. Ath-
letes should take great care never to
Use a pole too light for them.

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 1S.-
Senator Hills trip from Savannah
to Augusta was made in quick time.
The road was cleared and the
special train was sent through as
fast as it could travel with safrty
About 200 people were at the sta
ton at Waynesboro. A military
company fired a salute as the train
came IN, while band played
"Dixie." Sena.o .or Hill made short
speech from the car platform. He said
this was the first town where he
had been fired at since he struck
the South; this gathering showed
the interest the people were fakin Q
IN the pubic affairs Of their coun-
try; they were interested in good
government, in the prosperity of
their State and of the nation and
they wanted their rights vindicated.
Prosperity would be restored, if
they placed the Democratic party
in full control of the government.
Let the victory in November next
be most decisive one.
The members Of the party sat down
to lunch Z AS the guests of Col.
McBee, superintendent Of the Geor-
gia Central railroad, who had per
sonal charge of the party. Al a
small station midway the local
committee OF reception from Au-
susta. boarded .he train. 1t Was
6;l5 P. III when the special train
reached Augusta, where the Sena-
tor met with an enthusiastic recep-
tion, and was escorted through the
town by a long proc, ssion to the
Arlington Hotel. The reception,
which occurred at 8 O'Clock, was a
most brilliant affair.

Lightning Causes Four Deaths In Scran-
ton, Pa.
SCRANTON, Pa, June "A terrific
thunder storm played havoc throughout
Lackawanna county, Thursday night.
1t began in the early evening and con-
tinued until o'clock, a. m. Three boys
and one girl were struck by lightning.
Two were killed outright and the others
fatally injured.
When the storm first came up two
Polish boys, Joseph and Casmir Chon-
iczky, were caught beneath a large oak
tree in South Scranton. Casmir was
part of the way up the tree while Joseph
was standing beneath when the light
ming struck. Joseph was instantly killed
and Casmir was set on fire by the
electric fluid. He caught on one of the
limbs of the tree and was frightfully
burned before aid could reach him. He
died in few hours.
In the Hyde Park section a 3-year-
old son of Sylvester Arnold was struck
and his injuries are regarded fatal. At
Elmhurst, miles east of this city,
girl named Andrews while seeking
shelter under tree was killed by
thunderbOlt.

fell into shame and degradation. But
70 there any reason . man should oon-
slider it perfectly proper for him -
tempt q fellow man into the beginning
of intemperance, which in 50 many
cases ruins his career, ends his useful
ness and brings him to shame and dis
honor?
p The treating habit is the cause of the
downfall of thousands of young men
every year. Man is gregarious ami
NAL; he seeks the association of his fcl-
bowman. This is especially marked
among the young. In their hours of
recreation young men flock together.
One, through the mistaken idea of hos
pitality, invites the others to drink.
Each of the others deems it necessary to
do the same to avoid the imputation of
lack of hospitality. All drink more
than is good for them. This sort of
thing is repeated again and again, IN
til the habit of drinking is firmly fast
ened upon at least a portion of them.
Not one of them started out with any
idea of becoming drunkard, or with
any desire to do SO; yet that dire result
follows as the legitimate consequence
of treating"
This peculiarly American idea OF
treating is a habit that will die hard
Law will not cure it, for at least two
states have tried ''anti-treating' laws,
which proved to be utilities. But tho
TO nation of anti-treating leagues
seems to be a feasible means of COM
batting the habit, and of gradually root
ing out the mistaken idea of hospitality,
which is its root and origin-at least
among thinking men. Among the I'M
educated, it will have to be uprooted
by a process of education. The crea-
ton of a sentiment against creating,
among men who do indulge in drink, is
a work of practical temperance. and a

STARTLING FIGURES.
Statistics Showing the Enormity of the
Drink Traffic.

Drink Traffic.
Large figures sometimes tell startling
stories. Let those who are fond OF
working over statistics see what they
make of this:
In the year ended June 80, 1891. tax
was paid to the United States on more
than lightweight million gallons of dis
titled spirits made in the country. and a
duty was paid on a million gallons more
imported from abroad.
In the same year internal revenue
tax was paid on eight hundred and sew
enty-four million gallons of malt liquor
and import duty on three million gal
Ions more.
Not far from SIX quarts of fiery spir-
its for every man, woman and child in
the United States.
Fourteen gallons-almost half bar
rel-of beer for every inhabitant of the
country!
What did it cost? 1t paid the govern
ment 10 taxes more than one hundred
and seventeen million dollars. 1t prob
ably cost the people who drank it twice
as much.
That is, twice as much in money

do not tell. Statistics are not gathered
to cover that point.
Nor do we know how much it cost

ways.
Does the magnitude of the national
drink bill suggest anything to you?-

The matron of one of the largest
founding institutions in the country,
when Intercepted the other day, said:
II am convinced if babies were left 20
themselves they would form curious
language of their own. In it sounds
soft and simple would predominant and
gestures would form half of the CONVEX
sation. Have you ever studied the faces
OF these little sprites and seen their

by little fingers and dimpled hands
restlessly move without ceasing, day

GRAVES FOR OVER 800.
Almost Impossible for Rescuers to Emf
the Burning Birkenberg Mine.

Almost Impossible for Rescuers to Enter
the Burning Gutenberg Mine.
PRAGUE, June 4.-Now that the ex-
element has died out to great extent
and inquiries have been made among
the survivors it is estimated that fully
400 of the employees lost their lives at
the Birkenberg silver mine.
Among those who were killed were
five students from the mining academy,
who were studying the working of the
mine to gain a practical knowledge of
mining operations. Gas continues to
form in great volumes in the mine, and
the Maria shaft is so filled with
it that the volunteers who are seek
ing to recover the bodies are greatly
hampered in their work In fact, it is
thought now that it will be a fortnight
before all the bodies will be taken
out. Trenches large enough to hold
$50 bodies are being dug in the church
yards, in which the dead will be buried.
Many of the dead will never be identi-
fed, and this adds to the sorrow and
mourning that is so general throughout
the district.

Whisky at English Dinners,

One of the curiosities of an English
table at the table d'hote dinner is the
number and prominence of the whisky
bottles. To an American it is extreme
~ curious to see half dozen gentle
men and ladies sitting down at the ia
BILE with pint decanter full of whisky
before each, and yet the sight is SO
common in England as to excite no re-
mark. When a guest arrives at an
English hotel he orders decantcr to
be filled with whisky of his favorite
brand. 1t is then charged to him, and
a bit of paper marked with the number
of his room is pasted on the flagon. 1t
is brought out at dinner and placed at
his plate, he drinks what he pleases,
and the rest is saved for the next occa-
sion. The array of fagons on the din
ner table is often very portentous, and
stranger unaware of the manner in
which the liquor is used is apt to won
der whether or not he has got into a
nest OF druukards, and the suspicion is
not allayed by seeing the stout old lady
opposite to him pour a quarter of a
glassful to begin with. But he need
have no fear. She dilutes it with wa
ter and sips it as she eats, to promote
digestion. So do all the rest: and that
il all the drinking that most OF them
do.-St. Lnnis Rennh1ia
