He rhought he Knew That Face.

81 pride myself on never forgetting a
face, but as a nomenclator am far
reaching and iridescent failure" said A.
G. Smoot as he bruised the crumbs Of
the table d'hote out of his whiskers
"Some years ago was in a Boston street
car when lady entered whose face was
very familiar. l felt that knew her
well, but to save me could not recall
her name. l shook hands with her,
asked after her health and tried to make
myself very agreeable. She treated me
to ice water, but that is popularity Of
some women, so didn't mind. Finally
she told me frankly that she had not the
pleasure of my acquaintance.
"That .bluffed me, but l handed her
my card. She read the name and shook
her head. She was quite sure that she
had never even heard Of me. 1 sub
sided and put on my thinking cap. Was
she making game of me or was it pos
sible that 1 was mistaken? l couldn't
make it out. That night went to the
theater and the mystery was solved.
The woman l knew so we'll, but who
had never heard of me, was that queen
of tragedy, Mrs. D. P. Bowers. st.

Deaths of wild Animals.

The circumstances that attend the il!
ness and death of wild animals are perhaps
less well known than any other part OF
their history Yet when we consider tha'
animal life, though in some species o.
great duration, is naturally brief and liable
to an infinite number of accidents without
remedy and sudden dangers unforeseen,
the subject of the last days Of the noblel
sorts Of beasts has certain pathetic inter
est. No doubt all animals, from the
healthy and natural lives they lead, have
strange powers of self cure in case of acct
dent. Those whose profession it is to pre-
pare the skeletons of wild beasts, large and
small, for museums and laboratories speak
with surprise of the number of injuries
and fractures which the bones exhibit, but
which have set themselves in rough but
effective fashion.
But the chapter of accidents" in animal
life spares none, from the stays which die
with horns locked together on the noun
tain side to the locusts which impalt
themselves upon the barbed wire of the
Transvaal farms, or the cicales which reno
their wings upon the thorns Of the mimosa
Death by violence seems to be the rule il
the lower forms of animal life, except il
the case of sudden plaques or changes o.
season. Only to the largest quadrupedi
has human fancy conceded the boon of {
natural and perhaps painless death, and
the remote, untrodden jungle, where the
elephants go to die, lies still among thu
undiscovered countries. "-London Spec
tatOr.

French EIectioneering.

A hot contest was about to take place
years ago in a country town, the caDdi'
dates being Legitimist, an Orleanist and
Republican. One Saturday morning peo
Pile ran up to the wife of the Orleanist poll
tician with the exclamation that "All was
lostp as the Legitimist rival was going tc
present every poor member of the congre
cation with 4-pound loaf after divine
service on the following day. The lady re
flected moment, and then said that she
would be equal to the occasion. She kept
her word. AS the people filed out Of the
church on Sunday morning the Legiti
mist candidate distributed his bread, but
posted on the other side of the door the
Orleanist's wife presented to the recipients
of the 4-pound loaves pat of butter or @
pot of jam. AS it turned out the willy Re
publican carried the day after all. He
happened to be dealer in wines, and send
ing around bottle to every poor electoI
he distanced his opponents and triumph
antly headed the poll.-Paris Cor London

She Dreaded "Loveless Old Age"

The late Anne Reeve Aldrich was the
author of the novel, "The Feet of Love-"
and of a volume of collected verses
which have attracted the attention of
the public through their intensity, great
felicity of expression and unaffected
simplicity and directness. Miss Aldrich
was one of the youngest of the writers
of the day. She had made an unusual
name for herself, and lived in the prom
Use of brilliant future. A friend re-
Gently described her appearance to be
like that of the heroine of success
full novel. She was tall and had a
beautiful figure. Her manners were
charming, her carriage graceful. The
head was statuesque and adorned with
wealth of red brown hair. This she
wore in classical style.
Coupled with her clean cut features
it gave her face look of distinction
and refinement which made her an OBJ
ject of remark. In her early death
she attained perhaps more than she
coveted. Yet her writings more than
once dwelt upon the hardships of a
'loveless old age"-a condition from
which she shrank.-Current Literature.

Where Strong Men Lived.

After the Spanish occupation of the
Grand Canary certain enormous stone
was for long time pointed out as one
of the instruments of the Gaunehe
athletic courses. The natives had been
able to lift it, set it on their shoulders
and even throw it over their heads.
Their degenerate posterity and the
Spaniards could not raise it from the
ground.
1t was reckoned nothing out of the
common for man to take an unteth-
cred OK by the horn with one hand and
slay it with the other. A certain native
born priest of Grand Canary in the Sew
enteenth century showed that he in
herited some of his ancestors vigor, for
one day, hearing that an enraged bull
had broken loose and was in the street,
he ran out and grasping it by the leg
threw it down, and so held it until its
owner was able to secure it.
This doughty son of the church before
his death CHANGED to have one of his
legs amputated for cancer. 1t was
then found that his thigh bone was
solid, with no trace of marrow. 1t must
be confessed, however, that the relics Of
the Canarians now found in their bury
ing places do not bear out the inference
that this was national characteristic,
though their dimensions are certainly a
testimony of the strength and size of
their late proprietors. -National Review.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-10-20
Submerged Mountain and Forest.

During a violent storm on the English
channel in 1883 the sea washed a cut
through an immense bank of sand near
St. Malo, laying bare a portion of an an
cient submerged forest, much of which is
fast passing into the condition of coal.
This forest at the beginning of the Chris
tian era covered an extensive tract along
the coast, but after a gradual sinking for
hundreds of years, it finally became sub
merged by the channel waters and in
later years was slowly covered with drift
ing sand.
BY the middle of the Tenth century the
forest itself had disappeared, but Mount st.
Michael, rearing his head from the center
of the great wooded tract, could be seen
for two centuries after the forest had sunk
from view, and was even accounted dan
