from Tn o zine PLANS Register
The young women Of Eyota, Mlnn., are tax
ing care Of the street lamps Of that town. Each
lamp has been assigned to young lady, who
keeps 1t filed with oil, lights it at dusk and
gets out of bed too late in the morning to OK
tinguish it al dawn. This arrangement has
been brought about by an anti-liquor crusade
The women wanted the saloons Of Eyota closed
and the liquor men said it didn't make an iota
OF difference to them, but they hated to see the
town invested with Cimmerian gloom every
night, and this would be the case II the saloon
license money. which was used for street light
ing, was diverted from the town treasury.
Thereupon the women said they would look
after the street lamps themselves, and they are
doing it 80 well that Eyota il q brighter place
by night now than ever before.
The Young men Of Eyota must feel lonesome
without their customary ''nips" and might
caps" but the pretty lamplighters ought to
more than atone for the loss of the other ex-
hilarants. Ono would think that any young man
who was dead sure that he had a heart and en-
ioyed an occasional autter of it would be will
ing to forego few bears or two or three fingers
Of tanglefoot for the bewildering pleasure of
seeing an Eyots belle shin up lamp post and
scratch match on the sole of her empire skirt

THE FOREIGNERS ASHORE
As the number Of ships in the roadstead in
creases SO grows the number Of officers who
spend their shore leave at the hotel whispering
sweet nothinss into the willing ear Of the Amer
lean maid.
The foreigners are improving their knowl-
edge OF the English language in a most remark
able manner under such favorable tutelage and
when they reach New York it will probably be
noticed that there is nothing slow about them.
Many OF them have already learned to whistle
The Bowery" and all the other latest popular
songs of the day. When they go away next
Monday they will leave many an extra futter of
the heart behind them. But this will not be
for long, for when the feet leaves the roadstead
there will be general exodus from Old Point
and many of the younger officers will doubtless
be pleased beyond measure when they NEE.
their newly made acquaintances again in New
York.
One Of the first things the foreign officers
want to talk about is the great exposition in
Chicago. and it is evident from the way they
talk that many of them are planning to spend
their shore leave this summer in flying visits to
the windy city. V.K.

From the Philadelphia Press.
In the town OF Great Valley, in Cattaraugus
county, N. Y. there is an interesting curiosity
locally known As the .'Whistling we'll" It is
located on the Wesley Flint farm and was dug
about fifty years ago. When the well had been
sunk to q depth Of about forty feet without
striking the coveted vein Of water old man
Flint and everybody else declared the venture .
fiat failure. A few weeks or months later some
member of the Flint family noticed that occa-
sionaily there would be = strong current Of air
rushing into the well for some hours in success
sion, and that 1t would again be belched forth
for q corresponding length Of time. BY way Of
safety the well was covered with Q large fat
rock. This rock had drill hole through it
about an inch in diameter, and through this
opening the air would ebb and flow uuceas-
ingly. Finally q whistle was fitted to the OPEN
ing, and the whole contrivance has ever since
been relied upon as an accurate neighborhood
barometer. In settled weather the whistle is
silent. An approaching storm is heralded by
the whistle Is the air rushes out to mingle With
the rarified atmosphere. As clear weather ap-
proaches the air is again drawn in, the whistle
making wholly different sound.

why Lost People Walk in Circles.


II is . matter Of common knowledge that
when Q man is walking blindfold or il lost in Q
fog or in some unknown forest or desert in
stead Of walking straight he has always tend-
ency to work round In q circle. The most COM
monty accepted explanation Of this curious fact
is the slight inequality in the length of q mans
legs. The result Of one limb being longer than
the other viii ...:u.ai;y re that . person will
unconsciousiy take longer step with the
longer limb, and consequently will trend to the
right or to the left. according - the left or
right is the longer. unless the tendency to
deviation ID corrected by the eve This expla-
nation 10 supported by the fact that in the
enormous majority Of cases the human legs are
proved to be Of unequal length. The careful
measurements Of q series Of skeletons showed
that no less than 80 per cent had the lower
limbs unequal in length; IS per cent had the
right limb longer than the left, while In IS per
cent the left leg was the longer. The left leg
being, therefore. more often the longest, II Is
to be expected that the inclination should take
place more frequently to the right than to the
left, and this conclusion is quite borne out by
observations made on q number Of persons
when walking blindfolded.
