ABOUT PHILLIPS BROOKS.
How He Aided Jewelry Firm on Occa
sion of 4 Fire.

In Boston, says the Journal OF that city
Phillips Brooks illuStra ted one marked
phase in his character and one of the
grandest phases in the character OF
any man or woman-the Willingness,
the desire to serve, to help some fellow
creature i distress. After seeing his
own church on Summer street destroyed
Mr.. Brooks next went to the store OF
Shreve, Crump q Low, the well-knoWn
jewellers. Their doors were barred and
their shutters up-and no wonder. The
store stood straight in the track Of the
danes, and already a large crowd, made
up principally Of roughs, had gathered
in the anticipation Of 4 chance to plum
der and loot Through this crowd DR.
Brooks made his way straight to the
closed doors. His vigorous pounding
finally gained him admission. Somd
of the men at the head of affairs Wert
friends of his To them he said: Gen
tlelnen. I am here TO do anything fOi
you in my power. Make any use OF
me which is possible" They were a
first adverse to accepting such distin

his earnest protests. So they LOADED
him down with diamonds and valuable
iewelry. They filled his pockets, his hal
and even his shoes. Again the doOl
was unbalred and out through thai
crowd of roughs walked Phillips Brooks
carving on his person valuables WOrtl
thousands of dollars. The act must
have been suspected by the foughs, ye1
not a hand was put out to strike q
even to touch him. Towering above
them all, he inspired a respect or fear
which proved a perfect protection. His
magnificent courage, (which did moi
know what fear was. enabled him Il
discharge his trust and leave the valu;:
bles in a place of safety.

REMARKABLE HELEN KELLAR,
The Little Girl Whose Case Parallels
That of Laura BTidgmau.

Helen Kellar the remarkable child
who although born blind and deaf and
dumb in Alabama, has accomplished so
much that is beautiful and inspiring,
numbers among her friends many per-
sons of royal station in European
courts who never saw her. One of
these, says the Boston Post. is the
queen of Greece, who learned of Helen
through N1icheal AnagnoS, the director
of the institution for the blind. when
he visited Greece some time ago. The
interest which the queen took in Helen
was so intense that she eXacted from
Mr.. AnagnoS a promise that he would
let her read every letter that Helen
wrote to him while she was at the
Greek capital, and when he was about
to return to this country she induced
him to permit her to retain several of
the letters that she had read, which are
treasured very highly at the court. The
queen expressed on more than one
occasion her surprise that Helen. who
is not yet in her teens, should have so
remarkable q command Of the pureSt
English, and limited that the child
might have had some assistance in the
preparation of her wonderful letters.
But Mr.. Anagnos disposed of that
thought by informing her majesty that
there was no person connected with the
institution who could write English so
faultlesSly sweet and pure as Helen
wrote. since the little girl never had
had an opportunity to form acquaint-
ance with any but the loftiest models
of the language. Helen has learned to
articulate and can speak as freely and
fully as any unaffected person. When
she wishes to hold a long conversation
with anybody dear to her she places
one finger across the lips of the speak
er and another on the throat ut the
larynX. In this way she understands
every word that is uttered as rapidly
as could be understood by a person
with good eyesight and hearing.

WOAIEN'S WAGES.

The Forum.-In pursuit OF a liViihoOd,
the hope or ultimate intention to marry
is drawback to wOman'S success. She
enters any vocation half-heartedly, not
as a life career, but as a temporary
stOp-gap. Abandoning her trade for
marriage, years afterward, she returns
to it an invalid and with dependents,
her hand robbed Of cunning; and she
must take her place at the bottom Of
the ladder Economically, indeed, she
is vet an industrial makeshift, rarely
displacing man except at half his pay.
Again, being uncrganized, women cam
not fight Such trades unions as dare
form are, for want Of leadership, scotch
ed by hard hitting manufacturers at
one blow, few associations surviving
one formal complaint or strike. Shoe
and tobacco unions have obtained sub
stantial results in shortening hours and
raising pay.

A PHILOSOPHICAL DISPOSITION.
By It Much Wear and Tear Of the HUI.
man System May be Avoided

Much unnecessary wear and tear up
on the nervous system may be avoided
if one possesses philosophical dispO-
sition, says the Brooklyn Eagle. A few
days ago a white man elOped with the
wife of an Indian in the far west, and
the Indian, instead OF putting on his
war paint and pursuing the couple with
it. Then he took Si4O out of the but-
reau drawer-the blessings of civiliza-
ton occasionally fall upon the red
man-and went to the next town in
search of the recreant woman, so that
he might give her the money, as it be-
longed to her. He told those whom he
met that he had no intention OF killing
the man for the snke Of woman who
was unfaithful to him; she was not
worth the sacrifice. Sometimes The
Indians use better logic than the more
civilized white men, but one does not
expect people to use reason in affairs
of the heart Not that common sense
is undesirable in such circumstances,
but it is rare that it is surprising when
one sees it manifested.
While the case of the Indian is a re-
Inarkable exception to the rule, Mrs.
Monroe Wheeler of Nuley, n. j., has
lust manifested still more wonderful
sclf-co1,troI Her husband has been the
proprietor Of q hotel on the Passaic
river, Which was once known as the
Bend View house, but he is no longer
connected with its management nor with
the management of his wife. Mrs.
Wheeler has turned him out IF doors.
About a week ago he went to her room
and told her that he was going to elope
with one of the servant girls. Ihls
frankncss was as unusual as 1t was
commendable, but there were peculiar
reasons for it. The wife Immediately
sent for the girl and asked her II what
the man had said was true. She ad-
mitted that it was. Now instead Of
going into Mysteries, or tearing her hair,
or dong any other of the many things
which women are wont to do on such
occasions, according to well-infOrmed
novelists, she gave the girl mother

Chicago, March 31.-Today Georg,

then Gedney gave Il strange laugh anC

Doyle did so and after Gedney recov
cred himself he approached Doyle with

earnestness in his voice. contrasting I'M
pleasantly with his recent playfulnesS
and said: You've got to jump Off the

With fearful reality it came to Doy', 5
memory that Gedney several years ago
had been treated for a mild form Of in
sanity. His first impulse as sickening
realization Of the situation came oyel
him was to call for help. But he saw
it was useless and tried to tempOriZG,
treating the matter as Il joke.
VIII you jump fercely screamed
Gedney, and without waiting for Il re
ply he seized Doyle and began ragging
him toward the edge. Doyle fought
with the desperation OF despair and the
men staggered to and fro over the roof
Robert Hastam, who has an office in
the upper story of the Monadnock build
ing across the street, saw the men strug
Cling and watched them, thinking it
only sport. He soon saw, however, it
was Il struggle for life ana death and
hurlying down rushed TO the hotel and
informed the proprietor.
Accompanied by a reporter the three
men started for the roof. On the
stairs leading to the turret, they en-
countered Doyle bareheaded with his
clothes torn from his back, He was
very weak, excited and in Il fainting
condition.
Gedney was walking calmly around
the roof when Eden, the proprietor, pat
his head out of the scuttle, and pleas
antly invited that gentleman to come
out and see the city, but Eden declined
and finally succeeded in getting Ged-
ney to come down for the purpose of
taking a drink.
He was put into a room and when
asked why he attempted to throw
Doyle off, seemed surprised, but
laughed and said it was only a joke.
Nevertheless he was locked up and
his father, Albert Gedney, who is in
Omaha, was telegraphed for.
When Doyle was able to talk he
gave a graphic account of the fearful
fight for life and it was learned that
he only escaped by strategy. After the
struggle had progressed some time and
feeling that his strength was almost
gone, he suddenly called to Gedney TO
stop and he would jump off, stipulat-
ing, however, that he must have a few
moments for prayer.
He stepped back and knelt down,
while Gedney reverently bent his head.
Doyle watched him through half closed
eyes and suddenly darted for the scut-
tie and went through it like a flash
into the arms of his rescuers.

callbineers Napoleon had Il force Of
Dragons prOper-that is to say, men
trained TO fight either on foot or in
the saddle.
In 1902 there were twenty one regi-
ments composed Of such foot soldiers
on horseback, although the tendency,
we are told, was for them to turn into
real cavalry, with perhaps some great
or capacity for fighting OH foot than
had the others This tendency has

develop into a spurious imitation Of
hussars. On the Rhine these dragons
of Napoleon did not succeed as did the
cavalry pure and simple, and therefore
they were sent away to Spain when
war broke out in that country. Here
their special characteristics found am
pie verge and scope ere long; for the
desultory warfare of the guerilla type
carried on by the inhabitants of that
country was exactly the sort Of fight
ing most suited to them. Thus it was
that by 1912 Napoleon had again IN
increased his force of daagoons to thirty
regiments. In addition there was a
large force of chasseurs- a-cheval in the
French army.

SKATING ON ARTIFICIAL ICE
How PIeasure-Loving Palisians Have
Been Enjoying Themselves All Winter

The French, though an Industrious
and thrifty race, take their pleasure
very earnestly, and the Partisan is the
perSOnifcatiOn of gayety. Although he
is the best in summer, when the sun
is always shining and he can pass his
life in the open air, he is as keenly
alive to the attractions of winter re-
creations as his Canadian brethren, and
while people in other lands have been
complaining Of the intermittent nature
of this winters frosts he has been
skating on genuine ice since Oct. /
last A skating rink of artificial ice
has been constructed in Paris forty
meters in length by eighteen in width.
AS described by correspondent of the
ST Louis GlObe-Democrat it consists
of a cement and cork floor resting upon
a perfectly tight metallic foundation up
on which is arranged a series of con-
nected iron pipes having a total length
of 5000 meters. The building is sup
piled with steam engines and the ne
cessary machinery for converting the
ammoniacal gas into liquid ammonia,
which is led into large reservoirs or
refrigeratOrs, where it expands with
the production Of cold. Having return
ed to the gaseous state it is taken UP
again by the machines, which force it
anew into the condensers, and SO on
indefinitely. The same supply Of am
monia serves over and over again. The
lowering of the temperature produced
by the expansion is utilized for cooling
an uncongealable liquid Solution of
calcium chloride) which circulates in
! spiralS in the center of the refrgeratOrs
This liquid, is forced into the pipes in
the floor of the rink. Each section de-
rives it's supply from two principal con-
/ duits, into which there is a constant
flow of the chloride of calcium solution
cooled to a temperature that varies
according to the velocity of the cir
culation, which can be regulated at
will. When the external temperature
is not very high all that has to be done
| is merely to keep the ice in condition,
and few degrees below zero will suf-

First, the snow produced by the blades
! Of the skates is removed, and then 4
! sheet of water is spread by means of
7 Il pump over the ice and kept in cir
culation during the entire period of
congelation in order to give a perfectly
even surface. In order to prevent the

ferences in temperature to which they
are subjected, they are composed OF

wealthy StrCrita Inez Valesquez and
had for a rival one Senior Romero,
who sustained close relation with some
outlaws in the Sierra Madra. The rest
may best told in Mr.. Houses own
words to a reporter of the San Fran
cisco Examiner:
"One evening, while riding over to
the hacienda. of my prospective father
in-law, a lassO was thrown over my
head and settled about my arms, pinnin
them to my side, My horse went on,
but I stopped. A minute later I was
surrounded by a dozen as villianous
looking GreaSerS as ever cut a throat.
They bound me securely, carried me
up into the mountains and anchored me
in a cave that was evidently the re
pository of plumber secured by robbing
excursions I suppose they intended
to hold me for ransom, and I opened
negotiations with them.

them to assassinate me, and that they
had captured me instead and proposed

outbid him. I was free to return and
settle with him. Romero's purse was
long, his hatred infinite, and fully
expected that he would name a price
that I could not pay.
after they had opened negotiations
with him, however, I CHANGED to over
not raise the original price, $1,000.
They came to me and told me that he
had offered $4,000 for my life. 1
saw through the game and replied that
I would only pay $1,000 for my release.

for my execution, but l stood firm, and
they accepted my price.
