GETS IDEAS FOR PREACHERS.
A Conegian After Many Failures Has
 Finally Got Good Job.


 The Cincinnati Times-Star has found a man who holds the position of agent for a popular preacher in that city. He was college graduate and had studied law, theology, horses, music, the drama and had tried the newspapers, all with out success. Then he made the dis covery that the preachers were the hardest pushed of all professional men for ideas to incorporate into their ser mons. The old, old story is all right as foundation, but SO many changes have been rung on it since the year 1 that it takes an extraordinary man to conceive an original view of it.
 ''Now this,' said the agent, lis what I do. A preacher hires me to wander about town and report to him little in- cidents or queer ideas that strike me. He takes these and weaves them into sermons. For instance, a preacher who hasa large congregati with much wis iting to do could not, if he were so in clined, visit all the public meetings, the resorts of gamblers and drunlzards, the factories and slums of the city. I am the eyes through which he sees these
 
 things, and using my information he speaks learnedly and inteligently of all phases of life and sets his congre- gation a-wondering where he gets time to see so much. He is thus en- abled to interest every element in his congregation, appearing to the sport ing men as a sport, to the athlete as an enthusiast in athletics, to the mu- sician as musician, and to the thea ter-goer as one well versed in the plays of the day. I also tell him what the people are saying about him, and so he is able to talk to the different classes in way that leads them-ig- norant of my offices as go-between- to think him really wonderful in read ing their thoughts. I am liberal in my ideas One month I serve a Method ist, the next may look at the same things with Baptist eyes, or Presby- terian. or may do service for heretic. am at present working for a preach CT in this city whose sermons are very much noticed by the papers, and who is noted for his original ideas, which furnish, but for which l am we'll paid.

PLUCK OF AN OPERA SINGER.
How Rubini Once Broke His Collar Bone,
 But Finished the Perrornance.

How Rubini Once Broke His Collar Bone,
 But Finished the Performance.
 Fifty years ago European audiences listened with rapt admiration to Ru- bini, tenor of whom it was said that, though he himself could not act, he made his voice act for him, says a writer in the Philadelphia Press. The intensity of expression he gave to his voice, the judicious use of the trcmolo, and the management of light and shade produced thrilling effect. But his best vocal feat consisted in taking the bass of the upper stave without preparation, thus retaining it for long time, and then letting it imper- ceptibly die away. The listeners could hardly believe their ears. The adven- turous arc always on the edge of dan ger. On one occasion Rubini, after re- beating this vocal feat, and being a second time encored, found himself unable to produce the expected note. Determined not to fail, he gathered up his vocal strength and made a supreme effort. The note came with its won't ed power, brilliancy and duration, but at the cost of broken collar bone. A surgeon examined the singer and found that the tension of the lungs had been too powerful for the strength of his collar bone. Two months rest would be required to reunite the clay icle, and this the singer declared to be impossible, as he had only finished sev- eral days of long engagement.
 "Can sing at all with broken col lar bone?" he asked.
 "Yes; it will make no difference in your voice" answered the surgeon. But you must avoid lifting heavy weights, and any undue eXertion- above all, you must leave the B fat alone"
 Rubini continued to sing with a broken clavicle until the termination of the engagement.

AHatter,s PhrenoIocY.

There is in London a merchant hat ter who has been studying the phren- ological development of his patrons, and here are some of his observations: A high forehead, broad, symmetrically divided, indicates a large mind, noble thoughts, and almost invariably genius. In support of this he refers his reader to the outlines of the heads of such men as M. Jules Simon and Victor Hugo. Bumps above and behind the ears show cruelty. Persons whose heads bulge out about the ears are usually prone to save money; those with a bump on the top Of the head are often very proud; very large bump-in this place denotes a great egotism. Men of wit and learning have a prom inent and bulging forehead. lie has also noted that actors have usually prominent foreheads. People with re- markable memories have large eyes; mathematicians have the angle of the eyelids visible from the side.

FRENCH DISHES THAT ARE BAD.
Snaus Bad as Alligators Whole, and Arti-
 chokes Like Pine Cones.

|
 chOkes Like Pine Cones.
 Snails cooked in their shells foFm a dish which, however enjoyable it may be to the French gourmand, an Ameri- can cannot relish, says the Epicllre At a fashionable dinner the writer got along very well until plate of half dozen was set before him, but he put 9 bold face on the matter and tried to follow the example of the rest.
 The thing was coated with a nasty looking dark greenish slime and looked forbidding. He transferred it hastily to his mouth.
 The first thing perceived was an aw- ful reptile flavor, like the scent in the neighborhood of the boa constructor cage in a menagerie. He tried to- bite the morsel, but it was like rubber and tough as ar old boot. It began to grow big in his mouth, until it seemed to at tain the size of an elephant.
 He felt himself turning pale. At last he gave a hasty gulp and swallowed the thing whole. Talk of Thaclerays American oyster experience being like swallowing a raw baby; that French snail went down like a raw alligator; his French friend by his side observed his embarrassment with an amused smile, and, remarking that he evident ly did not like snails, kindly relieved him of the rest of them and transferred them to his own plate.
 The artichoke, a vegetable much liked in France, was also the writer's despair. Everybody was eating them in the restaurants, and so he thought he would call for one. He was advised to try half one to begin on.
 So 0 half artichoke was brought, boiled with vinegar and oil. It was like pine cone sliced in two. The scales were like those of the pine cone, too, and there were more of them than skins to an onion.
 These scales were pulled off, one by one, and just the lower end, which was tender, bitten off, after dipping it in oil and vinegar. It tasted like soaked out chestnut, with a strong flavor of burdock.
 But the strong point of the artichoke is the time taken to eat it. The writer consumed about half an hour and only the outer layer was disposed of. To eat a whole artichoke would take small eternity. He came to the conclusion, finally, that American cookery, on the whole, was more nOurishing than French

LONGEVITY o- MAN.
People Who Have Attained to Remark
 able Cid Agc.


 It was Prof. Eufeland's opinion that the limit of possible human life may be set at two hundred years-this on the general principle, says the St Louis Republic, that the life of nearly all living creatures is eight times the years, months or weeks of its period of growth. That which quickly comes to maturity quickly perishes, and the earlier complete development is reached the sooner bodily decay en- sues. More women reach old age than men, but more men attain remarkable longevity than women.
 Horned animals are shorter lived than those without horns, fierce longer than timid, and amphibious creatures longer than those which inhabit the air. The pike will continue to live for one hundred and fifty or one hundred and seventy-fve years, and the con- mon turtle is good for at least a cen- tury. Passing up the scale of life to man and skipping the patriarchs we find many recorded instances of ex- traOrdinary longevity.
 The ancient Egyptians lived three times as long as the modern lotus eat CTS. Instances of surprising and authentic longevity among the classic Greeks and Romans are not at all rare. Pliny notes the fact that in the reign of Emperor Vespasian (73 A. D. there were 124 men living in a limited area on the River Pc who were 100 years old and upward. Three of these were 140 and seven others over 13O. Cicero's wife lived to be 103, and the Roman actress Luceja played in pub lie after she had celebrated her one hundred and twelfth birthday.

Water Lerel of Two Oceans.

When the Panama canal was first proposed, there was Q great cry about the dangers courted in opening up such ditch some extremists de- claring that the lives of millions of human beings were at stake" This general alarm was caused by the argu- ment that the waters on the Pacific side of tho isthmus were hundreds of feet higher than were those on the At lantic side. and that the great rush of water to even up the difference in the level of the two oceans would drown all Southern America and most of Mexico and YUcatan. NOuld-be en- gineers and sensational editors passed their opinions or wrote editorials on the subject. IL now transpires, as a result of actual survey. that the Allan tic and not the Pacific, is the higher of the two oceans. and that in place of the difference being hundreds of feet, as had been affirmed, the surface of the water on the cast side of the isth- mus is exactly six and one-half feet higher than it is on the western side.

oLo.TImg RIVER TRApE.
Everybody Used to Depend Wholly On
 Steamboat Transportation.


 Steamboat Transportation.
 One of the most difficult problems the old citizen can be asked to solve is the present position of the river to- ward the commerce of the city. 4 quarter of a century ago, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat 1t was every thing. It was both the feeding and distributing artery. People engaged in building, locating for life, could sec prosperity only near it's waters. Ad- vised that business would soon be gO- ing west they could only respond by the question: Do you see that river? Is 1t going to move?r Created avenues of trade were just beginning to receive attention, due to the rivalry of other points which were not blessed with a natural highway. The posses sion of this naturegivcn avenue of commerce had, in fact, made the aver age St. Louisian ncglectful and dis dainful of the created avenue. Life that did not begin and end on the river was not worth talking about. The man who wanted to go to Cairo, Mem phis, Vicksburg or New Orleans never thought of rail. The paIatial river steamboat was the accepted means of travel. People going east, even, at one time took a river steamer to Alton. The levee front was the scene of nine tenths of the life and activity of the city. The runner was the most per sistent and irresistible of his class. He iran" for the steamer as well as the hotel. He would almost l1idnap a per son to get him to his steamer or to his hotel. The latter-day cabman is noth- ing to be compared to him. And so with the merchant who had pound or a ton of freight to ship. It must go by river-by boat or barge. Those were great days for St. Louis. Rail- roading was undeveloped in the west and southwest and northwest and twenty-one states and territories were reached by water.

Paraguay Points.

At the beginning of the last war Gin 1SS6) the population of Paraguay was recloned aJ .10, ,O00: to-day it has less than 25O,000-and fully six-sev- enths of that number are women. These figures do not refer to the no- madic savages that swarm that part of the country called the ''Chaco," ," whose borders are separated from Asuncion only by the narrow river-but to their near llinsmen of more or less adulter- ated blood. who live in bamboo huts, cultivate the soil to a limited extent, and consider themselves civilized. The uncontrolled Indians of the Chaco are reported by the government sta tisticians to number upwards of 100, 600; but in reality nobody knows much about them. Even at the capital the aboriginal Guarani language is more universally spoken than Spanish, and the weekly journal. Fl LatigO Im- Inontal, is half of it printed in that l3ngUGre.

sAeAcIous SHEPHERD BOYS.
Their Faithful WatchfuIness Of the FIOcIks
 Under Their Care.

Their Faithful Watchfulness Of the FlocIzs
 Undcr Their Care.
 Gen. John BidweI related to the 0roville (Cal) Register the following as showing how well trained the shep- herd dog becomes He and a friend were riding in the Salinas valley when they came to band of one thousand or more sheep guarded by ten or twelve shepherd dogs. There were from twenty-five to thirty coyotes along the edge of the hills and within a short distance of the sheep, but between the two were the we'll trained and vigilant dogs "Two or three times while we were in sight one or more of the coy otes made dash for the sheep, but each time they were driven back by the guardians of the flock. We rode on and put up at the Gomez ranch, which was owned by wealthy native Californian. About sundown the sheep. driven by the dogs, came up to the house and the flock entered cor ral. Two of the dogs laid down at the entrance and waited there until the owner came out and put up the bars. Then the master patted his different dogs and fed them we'll. He told us that the dogs drove these sheep out on the plains two or three miles in the morning, remained with them during the day, kept the coyotes and other animals at bay, and each evening drove them up to the house and into the cor
