himself to denunciation of what he
described as legalized robbery as req

Not an Enemy i'm the World,

When Narvaez, Duke of 'Valen-

bishop Of Granada stood by his
side, endeavoring to prepare him
tor the great change.

A Modern Miracle,'

There lived in the vicinity OF
Bergerac parish priest who was
greatly beloved. His parishioners
decided upon getting up a sub
scrlption to present him with q
cask of wine. One of the inhab
itants supplied the cask, and each
OF the rest came and poured in two
litres of the produce of his vine
yard. One day last week our
Cure invited some of the sub
scribers to dinner, in order to taste
the beverage which formed a com.
pound of all the wines grown in
the district. The servant went tc
turn the tap, and came back with
a decanter full of water in he1
hand.
"Whatever is that?" was the
general cry.
''Th1s is the wine out of the
BARREL"
His Reverence could not make
it out; it was altogether puzzling
The guests were splitting with
laughter. Each one had thought
to himself that the presence of two
lltres of water would not be de
tected in a butt of wine, but, as il
happened, they had all acted or
the same idea.-Ze Petit L5eqeoi;s.

MINNEAPOLIS Tribune: After
the anticipation bill has success.
fully run the gauntlet of hostile at
tack and criticism, it is now IN great
danger of being grounded upor
the shoals. of congressional oh.
struction.
While the bill originally oc
cupied favorable place upon the
calendar, it has been compelled
several times to abandon it's place
of vantage to other measures.
Now an attempt is on foot to side
track it again, in which case its
supporters feel that it will be in
definitely tabled.
It is to be hoped that the Demo
cratic majority does not so far mis-
interpret public opinion as tc
deliberately shelve this important
measure.
If the efforts of the gambling
cliques finally result in the defeat
of a measure demanded by the
general interests of the country,
the people will know upon what
party to place the blame.

ONE of the most horrible tales
of desolation, death, and de-
struction comes from Titusville in
western Pennsylvania. There were
a cloud burst deluging the country
for eighteen miles along both sides
of Oil Greek, and the bursting of
large oil tanks covering the water
with oil. which took fire from a
passing engine, so that the unfor-
tunate victims, a hundred or more,
were burned to death or caused by
the flames to Jump into the roaring
waters to meet death by both flood
and flames. 1t was one of the
most terrible strokes of calamity
that has ever visited any part of

Two Brooklyn BOYS.

Two BOYS living in Brooklyn recently
wrote to Secretary Tracy of the navy,
telling Of a scheme they had on hand.
Part of their letter is given as follows:
I'VE intend to make an expedition to
the north pole, We believe that we will
be successful if we are supplied with the
following articles: A good supply OF
coal. food, clothing, and carpenters ,
machinists' and engineers tools. We
would also like to have mortar, many
bombs. weapons Of all kinds and plenty
of ammunition. We would like to have
two ships like either the Maine, Texas
or Baltimore
They had various other ideas in con-
nection with the plan, which they ex'
planned to the secretary, but the govern
ment will not be able to attend to the
matter at present. There is plenty Of
time. however, for the scheme to be con
sidered, as the boys do not intend to GO
until they have come of age, and the
eldest of the two is now only thirteen.-

shetland Ponies.

The smallest pony in the world is to
be found at the we'll known Shetland
pony farm of the Marquis of London
derry, on the island of Bressay. 1t is a
little colt foal that weighed but sixteen
pOunds and was only nineteen and half
inches high at its birth. 1t is perfectly
healthy, we'll formed animal. The great
object of the breeders of Shetland ponies
is to keep down the size of the animals.
The price increases in inverse ratio tC
size. This is partly from fancy and
fashion, and partly because the smaller
the ponies the better fitted for working
in the seams of coal in the mines where
they find their chief usefulneSs.-Nev

make derogatory remarks on his food.
His politeness was sOrely tried one day
when they had a most especially tough

for five minutes or so, and then he
