SAVES HIS UMBRELLA.
But It Takes ShreWd Planning to- Get
His Packages Home All Right.

1T seems to me-" said the worried
looking man to a reported III the New
York Sun, that memory is very much
Il matter OF habit. Now, for instance,
there's the umbrella, generally suppos-
ed to be the most elusive and easily
forgotten Of all things. I never forgot
mine for | am accustomed to carry II
daily, rain OF shine, and | should miss
it almost as much as l would my hat.
But 1 am not accustomed to carry
things home, and l seldom succeed
when I try. bought some collars once
Oh my way uptown and carried them
with me to the pole grounds. / slowed
them safely under my seat while I
watched the game and-another wore
the collars. Once, when | lived in the
suburbs, l bought one day 4 fish to
carry home. l placed it securely in the
rack overhead in the cars and-I hope
the railroad felix's have removed it be-
fore now. / tried recently to carry
home Il bundle containing some things
that / had bought, and discovered,
after / had got home, that l had left
the bundle in 2 street car.
IF l am going travelling for any dis
lance l carry my baggage in a certain
number of pieces; l have, say, a big bag,
little bag, two overcoats and umbrella.
When | so abroad or leave the cars or
beat 1 know that l ought to have five
pieces and 1 never forget them. But
here again memory is a habit. On
short trips if l have anything to carry
try by one Of three ways, if l think
of it, to remember If it is a bundle
that | can put in my pocket l pat it
there; that is obviously the safest way.
Another way is to put the package on
the floor Of the car, were / must
stumlJle over it in going out. The other
way is to carry it in my lap or to
lean it up against me SO that it will
fall ard attract my attention when
get up. If l neglect to take one of
these precautionary measures the pack
age is gone; but l never forget my UNI
brella."

injured. There have been many cases
where clothing has been almost de-
molished without injury to its wearer.
Iron tac.1s have been pulled out of shoes
and rubber boots have been destroyed
frequently. The brass eyelets were
torn out of a Georgia mans shoes, but
lie left only slight and harmless shock.

FRANKS PLAYED By LIGHTNING.
Some Instances of Extraordinary Dam
age Done b. the Deadly Fluid.

Lightning is as eccentric as it is
mysterious. There have been cases
where persons struck by lightning had
holes bored in the skull, but otherwise
they We're not marked. In other in
stances victims have been shockingly
burned, or even dismembered or dis
embowled. There have been cases
where 4 stroke of lightning has cut off
mans ear or shaved his hair and
, other way. The markings are often
! curious. Blue is the common color,
but they have been red, green and
/ black, and occasionally the whole body
/ turns black. Several times negroes
who have been struck by lightning have
had their skins bleached in spots to
absolute whiteness. The most notable
instance of this sort, recalled by the
Washington News, occurred in Mobile,
Ala, June % Of last year. A negro,
struck by lighting, found, after he had
recovered consciousness, that he had
one completely white arm. The rest
of his body was as black as usual.

of lightning strokes. Sometimes the
lightning selects a single object on a
mans person and assails that without
apparently touching the man himself.
Coins have been melted until they

'SATOILI'S GREETING.
Nearly Gets Church and State Mixed
Now in Milwaukee.

Nearly Gets Church and State Mixed
Now in Milwaukee.
Chicago, Sept. 5.-'1n the name Of
Leo XIII, l salute the great American
republic, and I call on the Catholics of
America to go forward, in one hand
bearing the book of Christian truth, and
in the other the constitution of The
United States" said Papal Delegate Sa
TOLL, wrapping the purple robes of his
, office about him and speaking with a
burning feeling that surprised the great
multitude gathered in the Catholic Con
gress today. The scene was dramatic
, in the extreme. The personal repre-
sentative Of the Roman pontiff to the
, United States was literally shaking
under the stress Of excitement.
This was his first public appearance
at Rational gathering since his APP
pointment to office, and by many was
regarded as his installation into Office.
AL this occurred after the congress
was called to order by the presiding
0 Ger, Judge NJ. J. O'Brien, Of New
York, who delivered an address of wei
come. Meantime the papal delegate
sat on a lofty throne-like chair said to
have been brought to America by Col
umbus. The papal delegate spoke in
italian, which was afterwards trans
Hated by Archbishop Ireland.
Sato1li said the first great Catholic
congress, the ideal and model for this
and every such gathering was when
Christ, surrounded by the children OF
Israel, delivered his great sermon on
the mount, the burden of which was:
Seek first the kingdom of God and His
Righteousness and other things shall be
added unto you.
The delegate said here in America
was the key to, the future and the pope
charged him to speak the words Of
hope and blessing and the message
quoted above. Other addresses We're
by Bishop Watterson, of Columbus,
Ohio, cousin Of Henri Watterson, Of
Louisville, and number of laymen.
