A Madras native gentleman was once
asked by Lord Roberts what he thought
Of "India for the Indians" He replied:
"Go to the geological gardens and open
all the cages. You will then see what
would be the end Of India for the In
dians. There would be a grand fight
among all the animals, with the result
that the tiger would walk over the dead
bodies Of the rest" On being asked
whom he meant by the tiger, he replied.
1.-THE Mohammedan from the north"
The moral of this sllegory of my
friend. who was certainly one of the
most enlightened native gentlemen
have ever met with, was that India
could not be left to herself, and that
supreme power was necessary to hold
together the varied and various races

How Air Resists n Locomotive.

Experiments made by the scientists
appointed for that tpurpose by the French
government show that the resistance of
the atmosphere to the motion Of high
speed train often amounts to half the to-
tai resistance which the locomotive must
overcome. Two engines, of which the
resistance was measured repeatedly and
found to be 10 pounds per ton at 81 miles
per hour, were coupled together and
again tried. In the second trial the re-
sistance fell to Ia pounds per ton, the
second engine being shielded from at
mospheric resistance by the first. It
strikes me that there is an idea for some
inventor half unmasked in this item.--

People Who Do Not wb,s,,s.

Arabia must be a heaven for those
whose lives are made burden to them
by the whistler. The Arab maintains
that a whistler's mouth cannot be puri-
fed for 40 days and nights, and they as
sert of the whistler that satan has
touched his body and caused him to pro-
duce the offensive sound. Then there
are the natives of the Tonga islands,
Polynesia. who hold that it is sin to
whistle, as it is an act disrespectful to
God. Even in some districts in north
Germany the villagers declare that II
one whistles in the evening 1t makes tho
angels weep.-Exchange.

Fruit Good at Any Time.

All fruit is said to be most wholesome
the first thing in the morning-and
surely no fruit is SO cleansing and re-
freshing and very little SO delicious at
that hour as a big juicy melon, cooled
over night and almost cracking open and
voluntarily exposing its red heart after
the knife has gone partly through it.
Such melon, however, is just as good
at other hours in the hot days, for which
1t seems to be especially provided as q
refreshing experience, something more
than the shadow of a great rock in a
weary land. 1t is no wonder the south
ern darkies are 30 fond of watermelons.
In these most trying days of the long
summer Of the south the melon is more
refreshing than chill dewdrops on the
early morning grass, and to the over
heated, overwearied and thirsty soul a
good juicy ripe one "comes home to the
business and the bosoms" of darky and
white man alike.-Hartford Times.

A Sign of Good Breeding,

One of the most convincing signs Of
good breeding is respect for other peoples
rights. We all subscribe to that state
ment in theory. Yet how many of us
always remember in any public place,
in the street car or at hotel table not
to introduce the two subjects that are
inevitably certain to hurt some one pres
ent-religion or politics? Women are
not exempt from dabbling in politics,
though generally professedly ignorant of
public affairs. Sometimes their speeches
apropos of ones favorite politician re-
mind one of the hint conveyed in the as
sertion that the wasp can sting as well
without its head as with it.-Chicago

Easy Tests For Proving u Diamond.

1t Is an easy matter to detect the diff.
ference between genuine diamond and
an imitation. Take a tube of filtered
water and drop the stone therein. If it
ispaste, 1t can be seen as it passes through
the water, but IL pure the eye is unable
to see it at all. Another test is to place
the stone upon q pencil dot made on a
piece OF white paper. If the dot is du-
piicated upon the facets you can rest as
sured that the stone is fraud, but if
not 1t is a good stone. The common be-
lief that stone can be tested by filing is
erroneous, for the best diamond ever cut
will splinter and break when rasped with
this instrument.-St. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat.

1t is from the rootlets or small fibers
Of a tree or plant that its subsistence is
obtained, and in the performance of its
duty nature has given these delicate,
tender parts wonderful strength and
persistence when exerted within rules.

expert printer is interested in the
contracts awarded TO the firm OF Ben
c. Jones q Co, and the manner in
which the state printing has been
and is being done by said con-
tractors under the sanction of
the expert printer is a fraud upon
the state, and has occa-
stoned the unlawful expenditure Of
large sums of money; and
Whereas, a decent respect for the
rights of the state, as well as those Of
the expert printer and the said con-
tractors to defend themselves against
the so often repeated imputations,
demands that the said charges should
be thoroughly and speedily investi-
gated. in order that the truth may be
presented to the legislature; there
fore be it
Resolved by the house of rePresen-
tatives of the state of Texas
that a special committee, to be
composed Of five representatives, be

mittee be and they are hereby en-

at the time and the explosion caused
terrible havoc The exact number OF
lives lost is not known, but 80 miners
are entombed in the mine The
engine-house is in flames and there i.
fear that hundreds may perish.
The men who went down were driven
back without being able to do any
thing. Five dead bodies have been
recovered and the fate OF the other
miners is in doubt. Later advices
do not tighten the calamity and the
worst fate is feared for the so min
ers. There is little doubt that most
if not all the men left below have
been sufTocated or burned to death
Nine men only have been rescued. all
dead. At midnight the fire is still
burning in all directions from the
mine shaft. The service pipe used to
pour water into the mine burst.
The difficulties in the way Of quench-
ing the fire have increased greatly
and the rescue Of the men below is
regarded as homeless
