The Careiessness Of Brothers.

The girl who has brother knows how
careless brother can be about sweet
little notes and long, alfectionate letters.
She knows how many he receives of
them, and this is n knowledge that would
surprise the other girls. They have such
dainty stationery--the other girls-with
monograms and all that sort of thing,
and they seem to like so well to use it in
writing TO the brother, and he is rather
proud than otherwise of these communi-
cations.
Why should he care if people know
that the prettiest, sweetest girls ON the
avenue begin their letters TO him in
rather Il familiar style and end them in u
manner even more so! So it happens
that he oftei leaves specimens of his cor
respondenc" lying about in way that
would surprise and grieve their fair and
trusting writers.
The girl who has II brother gives her
messages to her gentleman acquaint-
anccs by word Of mouth when possible.
Otherwise she writes note that the
world is free to read.-Chicago News

were to strike the earth in its erratic

asked many questions regarding the heav-

Curious Mode of Catching Turtles.

A curious mode of catching turtles is
practiced in the West Indies. II consists
in attaching a ring and line to the tail

the first turtle he can spy, to which he
attaches himself very firmly by means Of

CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.
Yellow Fever Refugees Are wei
coined and Not welcomed.

COLUMBUS, Ca, Aug. 24.-The city is
filled up with refugees from Brunswick
and serious disagreement has occurred
between the board of health and the city
council. Tuesday, Immediately on AN
nouncement that another case of yellow
fever had appeared in Brunswick the
board of health met and recommended
that quarantine be established. At a
meeting of the council, held later, the
recommendation was enforced and the
council decided that there was no neces-
sity for quarantine.
Last night the board of health met
and four of the six members decided to
tender their designations at once. The
four are leading physicians of this city =,
and they are naturally indignant at the
manner their recommendation was
treated. They considered it was pruden-
tial to quarantine, although not alarm
lists or apprehenSive.

struck this city last night before mid

rain fell in torrents. The storm was by

and no lightning, and there was not
the brief, heavy fell of rain char.
acteris tic of August storms in this
region. Instead the storm was pre-
ceded by an overcast sky, occasional
light shower and an atmosphere xsultry
to painful degree. Then came the out
break that startled those who were on
the streets. A gentle breeze began to
re <lieve the sultriness Just before II
o'clock. Within 10 minutes it had in
creased to a violence that was cal
culatcd to frighten the timid. 1t whis-
tied round every corner; it caught
every light object, a hat, umbrella, or
stray newspaper and whisked it off. The
rain came soon after the wind and it was
not a so zer, but a deluge. The high
wind carried the water through the air
so that it's volume was apparently
greatly in excess of the actual fall. Ii
was driven into the streets and over the
pavements, and pedestrians had hard
time of it.
