Street Cars Run by Natural Gas.

The cars are of the ordinary size, but
are constructed entirely of natural gas
pipes, ranging in size from six inches
down. These hollow tubes are neatly
carved, so that to the average observer
the fact that they are built of such ma
terfal is not noticed. These pipes are
heavily charged with gas, and with the
aid of boiler and the engines at work
beneath the floor it is said run of 80
miles can be made without refilling the
tubes. A speed can be obtained equal
to that of cars run by the electric
method. 1t said that one of the latter
will cost $4,000 for its construction,
while gas car can be made for g., 900.
Either artificial or natural gas can be
used as the propelling power It is fur
ther asserted by its inventor that to
operate it day Of 10 hours will cost but
$1.14, while the expense of running an
electric car for the same period will be

The Stupid Husband of a Noted Singer.

Catalanis husband "a handsome French
man, was even more unintellectual than
his wife-he was stupid. Once, having
found the pitch Of the piano too high, she
said after the rehearsal to her husband:
"The piano is too high. Will you see
that it is made lower before the con-
cert?"
When the evening came, Catalani was
annoyed to find that the piano had not
been altered. Her husband sent for the
carpenter, who declared that he had
sawed off two inches from each leg, as
he had been ordered to do. Surely it
can't be too high now, my dear!' said
the stupid husband soothinely.-Youth's

The Hermit of the BOwery.

Four or five years ago the people Of
New York talked for a day about the
story of Hermit Coe Of the Bowery and
then forgot it. A dozen years before
Leonard Coe, hat being the name he
was known by, had taken up his resi-
dence in a Bowery lodging house. He
seemed very poor, but paid his rent
promptly, and spent a few cents each
day for food. He was morose and
taciturn, could seldom be drawn into
conversation, and rarely left his room.
When he did he always carried with
him a brown paper package. Finally
he fell sick and was taken to q hospital.
When told that he could not recover,
he sent for John Halter, a former fell
low lodger, and informed him that his
real name was Baer, and hal he had
relatives living in Lancaster, Penn. He
also made a will, naming Halter as his
executor, and intrusted to his keeping
the brown paper package he had SO
long guarded with Jealous care. The
day following his death Halter opened
the package and found to his astonish-
ment that it contained over 1924, 900 in
~greenbacks. An examination Of the
hermit's papers showed that he was a
graduate of Yale College and had stud
led both law and medicine. Later he
had engaged in the publishing bust
ness with his brother, but had in time
retired with a competence, and had
finally drifted to New York. There,
for some unknown reason, he had sunk
his identity under the name of Coo
and adopted the squalid life of a her
nit of the slums. New York Il"

Grandeur of Kings River Canon.

Kings River Canon is situated
south of the Yosemite, forty-tve
miles from Visalia, and is the valley
of the south fork of Kings River. 1t
is ten miles long, one half a mile
wide, with walls that tower to o
height of from 2, 500 to 1000 feet.
The depth of the valley is more than
Il mile, while the floor IL compare
lively level, with grove and parks Of
willow, poplar, fir, and pine, rising
from a carpet OF exquisite flowers.
The abrupt walls rear themselves al
most perpendicularly, and the chang

rocks and boulders through a narrow
gorge into deep, clear pools below.
