Nellie +. broke the track record for
trotters at the Manchester, N. H.,
driving park last Thursday, making
a mile in 2.23R. This reduces her
record one second. This was the first
heat, but when Edith H. won the
next heat the spectators cried fraud.
Edith H. won the next two heats
and the race The judges deliber-
ated some time after the last heat,
and on general evidence that the race
had been put up by party of pool
buyers outside of the management
for Edith H. to win, the judges de-
clared her the winner and all pools
and bets off. There were several
thousand dollars in the pool box.
Nellie F. and c. E. Kinks Romulus

Eriendships of Snakes.

There is a certain coolness almost to
be called a positive want Of cordiality
between snakes and human beings
More, the snake is never a social favor
ite among the animals called lower. No
body makes an intimate friend of
snake. Popular natural history books
are filled and running over with anec-
dotes of varying elegance and mendac-
ity, setting forth extraordinary affec-
ton and cooperation between cat and
a mouse, a horse and hen, pig and a
cockroach, a camel and lobster, "a COW
and wheelbarrow and so ON, but there
is never snake in one of these quaint
alliances Snakes do not do that sort of
thing, and the anecdote designers imag
ination has not yet risen to the feat of
compelling them, although the stimulus
of competition may soon cause it.
The case most nearly approaching one
of friendship between man and snake
known to Inc is the case of Tyrrell. the
zoo snakekeeper, and his ''laidly worms ="
But then the friendship is mostly on
Tyrrell's side, and, moreover, Tyrrell is
+, ther more than human, as any one
will admit who sees him hang boa con
strictors around his neck OF course
one often hears of boys making pets Of
common English snakes, but boy is
not human creature at all. He is a
kind of harry Morrison in

Exasperating Days.

Aren't there some times in your life
when everything seems to go wrong no
matter how hard you try to have them
go right? Those are the trying days
when you want to blame all the trouble
on the way you got out of bed in the
morning or on other people instead of
looking the matter squarely in the face
and saying, Its one of my exasperating
days, and if | can only keep my temper
until night comes tomorrow will be diff
ferent."
The trouble is when we feel ruffied
ourselves we somehow impart the feel
ing to others, and nine times out of ten
we either get into a quarrel or do some
ugly, horrid little thing that we wouldn't
think of on other occasions. If you can,
on these hateful days, manage to think
twice before you speak once it will save
. lot of worry on the morrow. In fact,
that is a good rule to go by at all times,
for of all the unruly, mischief making
members the tongue is the most prom.

Keepers Are Up to Date.
The hotels of Oklahoma up to last fall
We're few and far between. Having tried
several with little satisfaction. "a party
of hungry "tenderfeet" was directed by
commercial traveller to little place
ON corner. The commercial man said
it did not look inviting, but it was clean.
That was an inducement the party had
not heard of in that section, and it
turned in for supper The dining room
was one in which the family lived. A
folding bed stood in one corner. An old
time bureau was opposite A box stove
was in the way, and about it were
several old fashioned rockers. A few
family pictures hung from the wall,
!, NTH the old, old motto, invoking the
I blessing of the powers celestial on the
household. The party asked for supper
and was told to be seated until the meal
was prepared. Two girls, delicate and
with much weariness in their faces,
spread the table. When the meal was
brought on, they simply said, Supper is
ready" and disappeared.
The party gathered about the meal,
and it was agreeably disappointing.
While it was being devoured-that is the
best word TO use, even at this distance
from the table--the two girls came into
the room, accompanied by their mother,
woman whose hair was white and
whose face was a study. There must
have been time when she was beauti-
full. They came in as if they had been
billed for the occasion. They went TO
one corner of the room, and then the
party discovered that there was one of
those old time melodeons i'll an out of the
way place. The mother took her place
at the keys, and as the mournful melo-
dies responded to her touch the daugh-
ters sang, Nearer My God to Thee"
Nellie Gray" and then "Lorena.'
Think of "Lorena" on melodeon in
Oklahomal The party having finished
supper, one of them paid the bill, and
then the music ceased. 1t was ques.
ton which no one of that party was ever
able to agree upon, or they had not up
to last accounts. Was the music of that
night for the purpose Of entertainment
or to forestall the possibility of duph
eating any of the orders? - Chicago

gown-married to an everyday common
preacher. OF course it isn't as if hewere
bishop or anything like that, but an
unheard of person living in an unfash-

very inharmonious." "Then why are

The Training of a Jesuit.


IF the enemies of the Jesuits really
knew the sons Of St. Ignatius we hardly
think they would abuse them. An Eng
hsh member of the society gives the fol-
lowing account of the course of training
of the members of the Society of Jesus:
'In the first place, as boy, the future
Jesuit gets two years training in habits
Of devotion, with the eyes of his superior
upon him, to see if be is fit for his voca-
ton. After this he applies to be admitted
az novice, aud, if admitted, is expected
to practice such humility that persons
who have been high military officers and
Judges were not thought too good to
clean shoes and knives and peel potatoes.
After these two years the student is per-
m,tted to take vows and become what is
called a clerk regular Then come
three more years of study in rhetoric and
philosophy aud after this seven years en-
ployment as teacher or project OF studies
in some college where teachingln the
branches just named is required. Then,
after this, come four more years OF study,
specially in domestic theology, moral
theology, pastoral theology, canon law,
