The Newspaper Illustrators story,

From the country Pe,7lCinkte to met
ropolltan newspaper is lengthy road.
by the side Of which the journals OF cities
OF from one hundred thousand souls up-
ward are the resting places.
Thus it was that | became Acquainted
with newspaper work in general and the
illustrators task in particular as il is an
piled in various citieS-to-w wit: Louisville.
Cincinnati, st. Louis and elsewhere
This is, | suppose, quite common mode
OF introduction TO the illustrators pro-
feSsion.
II need not be specially mentioned that
competition among newspaper illuStrat-
Ors is as keen as among reporters. and to
get beat on brother artist is a proud
achievement. When a man has once
shown himself capable of judging news
and selecting the right episodes of any
event Tor Illustration, then come the odd
experiences. Such one | had on the
occasion OF being sent by a Cincinnati
paper TO do" Il hanging in Lexington.
Kentucky. l received my Instructions
about O'Clock \. NJ, and, as they called
for my taking train at 8 A. NJ. / mad but
little time to recover from q hard DAYS
work, during which l had mostly pad
died about on the Ohio River in order to
get pictures of flooded houses. However.
/ was aboard the train on time, with a
portfolio under my arm. The tracks
from the Central Depot run along an old
canal bed, and as the train slowly plowed
it's way through the muddy water | made
eve measurements OF its depth by look
ing at the wheels of cars on other tracks.
l calculated that there were about six
inches Of water, and carefully noted it
down,
We arrived in Lexington two hours
behind time / looked at my watch upon
reaching the depot, and found had but
thirteen minutes lett III which to reach
the Jail. TO my discontinue the local
correspondent Of my paper was not there
to meet me as he had been instructed.
However, there was no time to lose. l
had myself driven down town and
reached the gray stone building about
11:40 or five minutes betor the time set
for the hanging. An immense crowd of
country people surrounded the place and
eyed me curiously.
AS / had no ticket Of admission the
Deputy SherifTs, who guarded the en-
trance, refused to admit me- Lnluckily /
did not have even a card which would
identity me as a newspaper man. / lost
two precious minutes parleyIng with
them. III despair | opened my portfolio
and made a rapid sketch of one OF them
Just few bold strokes with the soft
pencil, but still it gave the main features
Of the man sufficiently to establish a re-
semblance. 1t took only minute to do
it, but the effect showed me that [ had
not mlscalculated the ordinary curiosity
of average people when iii the proximity
OF an artist at work; not only did it cause
the two men 10 relax their sternness, but
they eventually admitted me upon my
promising to show them the sketches of
the hanging.-MaX de Lipman in July

BAND AND BULL.
The Beast Promptly Committed suicide
When He Heard the Music.

When He Heard the Music
Strineville PENN has a new brass
band. 1t played its first piece the other
day-One OF the few nice warm DAYS that
have come this way as yet this season,
The band considerably went half mile
out OF town to try its first tune. That
delicate consideration undoubtedly saved
the life Of Jimmy Strong, a Strineville
small boy, but it killed Farmer Fred
StaGtier's valuable young jersey bull.
At the time the band went out to play
the bull was pIacidly cropping the fresh
spring grass in his pasture, which was
near the spot chosen by the band for its
maiden effort. While the band was get
ting its collective lip ready to compel a
tune from its horns Jimmy Strong was
taking short cut through the pasture 10
get to the spot where the band was. The
bulI had reputation for a temperament
that was entirely incompatible with the
presence of small boys in his pasture and
he 10 sooner had taken note that there
was one even then trespassing on his do
main that he started in 10 hasten The small
boys trip across the lot. The small boy
FASTENED amazingly, but the bull was gain
ing on him. The band was so much alb
sOrbed with itself that it did not notice
the procession moving across the mead
ow, although the bull was mounting his
displeasure Justify as he bounded along,
and the small boy was lifting up his voice
in iar-reaching tones.
The bull had got within few jumps Of
the lying boy just as the band was ready
to play. The band played. At the first
burst and blare Of sound that the band
projected on the circumambient air the
bull stopped short, threw up his head and
shifted and snOrted. The horns let fly
again. The bull turned and rushed wildly
toward the stone wall-reached the WALL,
stopped and looked back with terror in his
eyes. The band through another Install
ment of its soul into the horns. The bull
gave one wild leap and went clear over
the wall, fell into the ditch below and
broke his neck. 1t wasn't exactly a com
plilnent to the band, but it saved Jimmy
Strong Corr. Y. Y. Sun.

SEX IN EDUCATION.
The Female Brain is Lighter than that
Of the Male.

The Female Brain is Lighter than that
Of the Male.
Sir James Crichton Browne, in an ora
ton recently delivered before the Medi-
cal Society of London, undertook to point
out what one of our own physicians
some years ago treated with exceptional
ability and thoroughness-that sex in
education" needs to be carefully consid-
cred and provided for, and, by way of
inference, he discredited not only the re-
cent decision of the University of ST. An
drews to open its classes in art, science
and theology to women as well as to
men, but declared that this was a down
hill step toward confusion and disaster.
His attack upon the higher education was
based upon his conviction that The differ
ences in the sexes are real and deeply
/ founded in structure.
He showed that the female brain is
lighter than that of the male; that the
specific gravity of parts OF the female
brain Is less than that of corresponding
parts of the male brain, and that the
blood supply, which, in the male, is di
rected chiefly TO the voIitional and intel
lectual and idea omOtor processes. is, in
the female, more directed to the portions
of the system which are concerned in the
discharge of sensory functions. II Sir
james is correct III his diagnosis, we are
making q serious mistake in ignoring
such structural differences in our pres
ent attention to the higher education OF
women. We are putting upon them an
intellectual strain for which they are not
prepared, and which nature had never
intended that they should be bothered
with 1t is possible that Sir james may
be more sensational than accurate in his
Investigations, and that he likes To see
the English girls who are the pictures OF
physical health better than he likes to
meet the sweet girl graduates who
have lost something OF the fine physical
glow which belongs to the perfectly de-
yeloped English maiden.-,Boston Herald.

DRINKING MORE BEER.
The German People Have Plenty of
Money for it.


The consumption of beer, the national
beyarageOf Germany, is increasing at a
much greater ratio than the population of
the Iatheriand. The latter Increased in
the four years from 1851 u 1891 by 4.3
per cent, ana The quantity OF beer con-
sumcd by Il 3 per cent, or four times as
much. III 1870 10 1881 they drank 49,
00O,UJ0 gallons OF beer more than in 1856
to 1857, which IS an increase of about
four gallons 10 the head OF the population.
The total consumption was ,3lS. COS, 600
gallons in 1890 10 1891, or about thirty
gallons to the head The export trade Of
German beer has diminished during the
same period by j .0e0. Geo, which loss of
business has therefore been made good
seventeen times by home consumption.
Ia the face OF so great an increase in the
consumption OF such a beverage the cry
of retrogression Of the industry, the COM
merce and wealth OF the German Nation
raised by pedantic opponents OF the pres
ent Imperial Government, sounds ANY,
thing but reasonable. So long as the
masses OF the people have money to spend
on beer and tobacco. they may be as
sumed TO be pretty well on.

THE HAD OF THE MIST.
The Spirit q EIickitat Indian Maiden. who
Last asF Lover and Her Life, Said 10
Hove AuSically in the Spray u
SaOqHalmie Falls.

Tradition has 1t, says the Seattle PresS-
Times, that when the Klickitats went west
Of the Cascades more frequently than they
do now, two young braves fought q duel
to the death on the brink Of the Snoqual-
mic falls, and that one vas thrown into
the seething pool below by his adversary.
The cause Of the combat was their rivalry
for the affections Of an Indian girl, May
Bird, who bestowed her smiles so Impair
tally that II was impossible to determine
which was the most favored sutton. When
she learned Of the result Of the duel, how
ever, she realized that the one who was
the object Of her affection had met his
death. She became very Respondent, and
when the tribe was about to depart she
jumped from the rock into the precipice,
almost 200 feet below.
Since that time the Klickitat Indians
have had horror Of the spot, and 1t was
noticeable fact that at the exhibitions
given there last summer, not one Of the
Klickitat hop pickers came near the falls.
Now the engineers and trainmen have
seen her black eyes peering out through
the mist, and wild love melodies mingle
with the chatter Of the wheels as the train
PUSHES by.
Only portion Of the apparition Is wish
BILE aud that only at favorable times. A
halo Of light shines around her head and
dispels the darkness Of the falls below.
At 6rst the supernatural vision was re-
garded as an optical delusion, but 1t has
been seen time and again, the slender
form floating about in the vapor and the
sad, dark eyes, always with that intense
look as II searching eagerly for something
which could not be found. Those who
have looked upon the spectacle firmly be-
lieve that May Bird, the Indian girl, is
sill disconsolately grasping for the lost
body Of her Klickitat lover In the boil
ing foam and dark waters Of SnOqualmie
pool.

indianapolis NeWs: Not long ago Mr..
Morris Butler, son Of John NJ. Butler, who
had just arrived home from an evening
party at 2 O'Clock in the morning, heard
q carriage drive up to the house, and a
moment later answered q ring at the
door bell. A young man Of handsome
face and energetic manner blurted out,
without ceremony:
"What state can cousins legally marry
IMP"
II don't know" said Mr.. Butler, as
soon as he could recover from the ei-
Ieets Of bis visitors bluntness, "but l
will ask father"
He went up stairs and, after much
knocking, aroused his father.
Father" said he, "what state can
cousins legally marry INF"
Kansas" was the single word in re-
Spouse, between what sounded SUSPECT
ously like shores.
Mr.. Butler returned down stairs.
swell, what does he say?" asked the
visitor.
Kansas" replied young Mr.. Butler,
laconically.
Thank yOu" The door was closed
and the young visitor was gone.
Nothing further was thought Of the in
cident until yesterdays mail brought Mr..
Butler a certified check for 800 illegal adj
vice" from his hitherto unknown client.
This is probably the highest rate per word
ever paid for legal advise. 1t divides
into 800 per syllable and 1888 per
letter,
