Khu 7heu Hate Each Other.


A porter in big uptown hotel escorted
through Central Park yesterday stalwart
sailor friend whose cap proclaimed him a
member of the MiantonomOh's crew. As
they gszed at the shaggy horned rhinoceros
the landsman said to his companion:
"Billy, that lubbering beast has more
sense than you"

because he never INDUCES il more than
two horns daily"
When they visited the elephant house
the sailor was in thoughtful mood. FL
nally he said:
"TOm. why do all hotel porters hate ele-
phants7"
WASN'T aware they did," replied Tom.
"What are you driving at?'

Liaaisl and Sufid Air.

From recent experiments it seems prob
able that all gases under ordinary atmos-
pheric pressure would become liquid or
solid before reaching absolute zero. 1t is a
well known fact that after a gas has been
cooled below its critical temperature it may
be reduced to the liquid state by the aid Of
external pressure. Until a few years ago
oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, air and few
other gases had never been reduced to their
critical temperatures and hence could not
be liquefied.
Air has been compressed until IL was
denser than water without any trace Of Ii
quefaction. And so these gases were called
permanent or incoercible gases. But in 1873
Cailletet of Paris and Pictet of Geneva,
working independently and by somewhat
different methods, succeeded in reaching
the critical temperature OF some of these
gases and by great pressure reduced them
TO the liquid form. Since then all known
gases have been liqueficl and the old dis
tinction of permanent and coercible gases
has been eifaced.-Scicnce.

Catherine III of Russia.


Once at an official dinner Catherine III OF
Russia had an animated discussion with a
foreign ambassador who had displeased
her. She spoke with more anger than dig.
nifty In the midst of her tirade she over
heard her secretary, Chrapowicki. say in an
undertone
1T is a pity for the little mother to lose
her temper this way"
She stopped abruptly and during the re-
mainder of the dinner was gracious and
merry.
As she left the table, however, she went
straight to the impertinent interrupter and
said. "How dare you criticise my words in
publici"
Her voice trembled with anger, and her
hand shook so that she nearly dropped a
cup of coffee which she was holding. She
set down the coffee untasted and told the
unfortunate secretary TO go.
The man believed himself ruined and ex-
pected to be sent to Siberia next day. He
had no sooner reached his home, however,
than messenger came to summon him to
the empress.
He found the empress still angry and ex.
cited. She reproached him bitterly for re-
turning impertinence for the kindness she
had shown him. He threw himself on his
knees before her.
''Take this" she said, handing him a
snuffbox set with diamonds. keep it, and
whenever you have any more observations
to make in public upon what 1 say or do
hold your tongue and take a pinch of snuff.
Such advice might be good for me."-

acquired while a child.-Rochester Union

PosToN, Nov. 22-The feeling of conf f.

thing about this is that the graduates.
especially those of an athletic turn OF nit d
are more confident than the men who are

the result Of the Yale game for the last
two years, and this makes them shakey,
but the former are the ones who have seen
the secret practice on Soldiers field, So
their expectations are founded on actual
observation.
Furthermore, many cf them believe not
only that Harvard is going to win, but
that the crimson will come out ahead by
a good margin. One man who captained
the team some years ago, and has since
been an oracle OF the game. made the
statement yesterday that he belived

worst faults of the eleven three weeks

Tufts College Cancels Its Engagement

Brown had their last game OF the
season scheduled today with Tufts en-
Lincoln field. AT III O'CLOCK
this morning Tufts manager can
celled the game without giving
any reason. The team has been kept in
training for over week in the expecta-
ton of playing this game. and Ali the
papers have been full OF the
merits of the two teams and
the prospective winners The rivalry
between these two colleges has always
run very high. Tufts has been victorious
during the last two years and last year
beat Brown on Lincoln field 2i-6 Before
Brown had been superior, and the
team this year WAS expected to
wipe out the disgrace OF any previous de-
feats. TUFTS, however, had hopes OF
winning this year and had bent all her
energies to the thought of winning
this game. To cancel the game
at this late date il far from
fair to Brown and totally unexpected by
the management. IL this is the spirit
displayed by Tufts hard feeling between
the two colleges eau be the only result.
The suspicion comes that Tufts is afr lid

the latter's repeated strength. Up, TO
