Mrs. Emma Moseman. Mrs. Rayncr and 15-yesr-old Jennie Rhodes deserve to go on record with Grace Darling and Ida Lewis. The life saving stations on tho Atlantic coast arc not occupied by their crews in the summer until Sept. 1. At the time of the two terrific August cyclones, therefore, there were no men except the captains at the stations. At Point Lookout, on Long Island, bark was driven on the sands and was fast going to pieces when the ladies named heroically volunteered as life saving crew, and aided by three men and q youth of 10 worked the ropes of the ap, paratus and brought ashore the seamen, who would otherwise certainly have been drowned.

What if European royalties do fight cather shy of visiting our Worlds fair? We have enough far eastern potentates to make up for it, and when it comes to that pomp and gorgeousness which are the real attributes of royalty European kings and princesses are nowhere com pared to the orientals. The emperer of Germany himself could not hold can dle to tho Maharajah of Kapoorthella in magnificence. Wo have at this time an other prince from the dazzling andspicy orient with us. He is Prince Komatsu Yorihito of the imperial family of Japan. He came by way of the Pacific coast to visit the fair and study our naval acad- emy at Annapolis. Thence he proceeds to England and France to investigate their respective naval schools, After that he will go back home to assist the Japanese government in organizing and building q navy of its own on the most approved modern principles, Komatsu is much better looking than most of the scions of royal blood in Europe, and that goes far in his favor.

Gamers Goriiias.

The first installment of R. L. Gamers adventures since he planted his wire cage down in the forests of mid-Africa and prepared to make stay of it till he learned monkey and gorilla talk is en- tertaining enough. One always contends in his secret thought, though, that if Garner had really wanted to study mon- keys he need not have gone so far from home to do it. The missing link is more numerous than has been suspected, it really is.
 What Mir. Garner has learned thus far Is not hard to sum up. We may hope he will find out much moro before he comes back. In Fernsn Vas, on the Jimbo- gombi, he has found that both the gorilla and tho chimpanEes frequently utter just the same sound that the negro tribe thereabouts articulste when they say yes. He judges therefore that tho monkey tribe and man tribe have the same word for yes. He finds also that the gorilla l. like Artemus Wards hyena, that went of into the wilderness by hisself and laffed."
 The gorilla is not fond of company. A big male usually has harem, as is fitting oriental and African monarchs. At night he does not protect his wives and children, but lets them all find their own trees to sleep in, he taking the best one for himself. In the morning he makes them all get up on time, however, by series of ear splitting yells which do not stop until the wives and their progeny arc marshaled for the days journey. The mothers carry the young ones upon their backs. So far as can be found, there is no such thing as 8 home or fixed locality for the gorillas. They climb trees and sleep wherever darkness overtakes them. This must be very nice indeed when it comes rent day.
 Mir. Garner does not think much of the gorilla intellectually, but the chim- panzee is really good deal of 6 fellow.
 The strangest thing of all and the hardest to believe, though MT. Garner asserts it on the honor of a gentleman and scholar, is that the chimpanzee tribe make or find mysterious chunks of musical earth. which one of them beats upon, causing it to give forth rhythmic sounds like drumbests. while all tho rest dance round like demons. When they have finished the hoedown, the dancers utter one long, unspeakable howl of sat' isfaction and break up the meeting. Ii this weird tale be true, then it is moi hard to account for the origin of danc' | ing.

"Reminiscences of Lincoln.

In these days when every memory of Lincoln is fading out except that he was great statesman, Q shrewd manager and relator of anecdotes, the little per sonal reconections that still lio in the minds of those who knew him ought to be carefully preserved to give his char acter in its completeness. It IS pleasant, therefore, to find some frosh reminis- cences of him given to correspondent of the Kansas City Times by Senator Vooxhees.
 The Indiana senator knew Lincoln when he himself was young country lawyer just beginning practice. Lir coin was very kind to him and won his heart in such way that even differ erences in politics never ahenated it. Mir. Voorhees, emphasizes especially cer- tain traits of Lincoln not generally con sidered. He says: He gave you an im- pression of greatness at every moment. He answered every requirement of his great life and rose to meet every emer- gency with an ease which spoke of un- limited power in reserve" "He had . great laugh--a high. musical tenor-and he used to make things ring with laugh ter" "Lincoln's personal courage had no limit. He was afraid of nothing On earth" What we call big politicians are in general way dwarfed and mindless generation compared to Abe Lincoln v Finally hr. Voorhees, says that even Lincoln's fame as a story teller has not had half justice done to it.

IRREGULARITIES OF THE HORSE
Why the EqafDs Is Never sick NJ tin
stomach.

Why the EqutDs Is Never sick NJ the
stomach.
There are many odd things about the
anatomical and physiological makeup
II the horse that are seldom noticed or
mentioned. even by the so-called writ
ten authorities" on such subjects, or
by veterinary surgeons themselves, says
the ST. Louis Republic. Emetics have
no more effect upon n living sick repre-
sentative Of the genus equus than they
would on u marble representation of
Alexandcr's famous old Bucephalus.
Do you know why this is? II is be-
cause a horse is unprovidcd with gall
bladder. When one of the human fam
lily gets badly injured the gall bladder
acts in sympathy. and the result is
''Geachly sickness" or fainting away
entirely. With the horse il IS different,
not because he Is not sensitive TO pain,
but for the reasons given. Some au-
thorit&cs consider that the most highly
organized of the domestic creatures
One even says: There is no living
creature, not even a hysterical woman.
SO nervously sensitive as a horse; and.
as for the contention that horse does
not feel pain, l think that he even
suffers more from an injury than
man would from hurt Of the same
magnitude. And yet this ''nervously
sensitive" creature has been known to
eat hearty meal whsn his entrails
were trailing on the ground as a re-
suit of IN encounter with trained
bun in tho arena, or from gunshot
wounds received IN battle with human
foes. This for tho reason that he could
not possibly get sick at his stomach"
because there Is no overflow of gall to
cause such stations.
