Professional Jealousy.

Malibran and Sontag, the two fa-

cast to sing in "Romeo and Juliet. "
Sontag was German, very sweet and
gentle, but not so quick as Malibran,
who was a Spaniard. The latter,
who played Romeo, did her best to

and kissed her and no one in the car

fact that she was trying to justify the
kissing by means of an engagement

He Was Fishing for Trout, But Got Bite
of Another Sort.
"A strange thing happened to me
when l was trout fishing last year up
in northern New York said Andrew
Bishop, of Bridgeport, Conn. to a
Washington Star man. .'The fish were
very wary, the stream was narrow. and
the pools We're but lightly bordered
with bushes or cover of any kind con-
sequently when l would reach prom
ising looking spot L would get as far
from the bank as possible, and at the
same time be able to drop my fly over
in the water. 1 had followed this plan
with poor success, getting only one or
two strikes in as many hours, when sud
denly my line began to run out with
whirr. No trout had ever carried off a
fly for me in such way before, and 1
was nonplussed, but in a moment saw
that it was nota fish that was making
my reel sing. Rising from the surface
of the stream ana tying above it was
bee marten which had gobbled my fly
as L cast it over the bank, and he was
making away with it. The bird soon
had nearly all my line out, and not
caring to lose it, 1 began to play him as
would play a fish. He struggled gamely,
l tell you, but the hook had caught in
his beak and held him firmly. At last,
after a full hour of fighting, the bird
futtered helplessly to the ground, and
/ released him. You may think that's
a fish story, but it's true.

HE TAUGHT HER A LESSON.

One Wife Will Not Again Trouble Any
body fer Spool of Silk.
One summer the wife of Chicago
man went to one of the resorts. AT the
end ola week she found that her black
silk had given out, so she wrote her
husband to find a spool of it in the
lower drawer of the bureau" and send
it on. The dutiful husband spent three
solid hours one hot day before he
found the missing spool. OF course, it
was not where his wife had said it was
After he had changed his saturated
linen the man went down and sent the
spool by registered mail to his wife
That night it struck him as absurd that
she should have put him to all that
trouble, and he resolved to teach her
lesson. He thought that with little
effort she might have found some silk
at the summer resort that would have
answered her purpose. Well, he bought
a gross of spool silk and put it in
drawer of his desk. The next time she
left town she found spool of black
silk under her plate at the place where
she took her first meal, and ever since
then she has been followed by spool of
silk, even to Europe. Wherever she
may stop she finds the spool at her
plate or on her dresser. She has learned
the lesson.

BROWN GOT THE MONUMENT.
ana as He Had Been a Good Fellow, the
Boys Said He Deserved 1t.

And as He Had Been Good Fellow the
Boys Said He Deserved IT.
At little settlement on the Indian
river, Florida, before the railroad was
built, lived a penniless, good hearted
fellow of the name of John Brown.
When Brown got any money he would
divide it to the last cent with his
friends among the boys, and of course
the boys liked him. One day the boys
found Brown dead in the woods. They
dug him a grave, rolled him in a horse
blanket and let him down in it and
then drank several bottles of east coast
bitters to his health and expressed the
hope that whatever new climate he
was in he would be healthy
Some time later than that a stranger
came among them. He died and, as the
weather was too warm to ship his body
off, he was buried next to Brown A
week or two passed and the relatives
of the deceased stranger sent down
money to erect a monument over the
grave of the stranger.
The boys took the thing in hand and
discussed it pro and con. They came to
the conclusion that Brown was a
''durned" sight better fellow in every
way than the stranger and more en-
titled to a monument, so one night
they went out and swapped the men
from one grave to the other. As a re-
suit Brown, the ne'er-do-well Bohe-
mian and all around good fellow, sleeps
beneath a handsome marble monument
and the rich stranger lies in an un-
marked grave.

Some Minor Differences from the Ameri-
can Commercial Traveller.
The commercial traveller in England
is little different from his American
brother, pursuing the same line of pol
icy in getting there so far as secur-
ing trade is concerned, says Hardware
His invariable rule, however, is that
his first price given to a local mer chant
is his last and only one. There is no
going in the morning with an offer,
and then in the afternoon with an ex-
ira inducement to make the trade.
This being the invariable rule, it saves
much labor and apprehension in the
mind of the buyer that he has not done
so well as he could have done with
more diplomacy.
Everything is done for the comfort
of the traveller, and at the hotels a
special department called the com
mercial room is set apart for his ex-
elusive use. In this room smoking is
prohibited until nine p. M, a place be-
ing devoted to that purpose at other
times. The traveller takes his meals
in the commercial room, the dinner be-
ing a set affair in which all travellers
in the house generally participate.
The Oldest man is at the head of the
table, and is called the president; while
at the foot is the youngest man, and
he is termed vice president.

HAIL FORMED 81 ToRNADoEs.
The Result of whirIwinds In the Atmos-
nhere Ear Ahnra fhf. Earth.

The Result Of whirIwinds In the Atmos-
phere Far Above the Earth.
The fact that hail is formed at an
indefinite but, in most cases, a great
height above the surface of the earth,
and that it is commonly precipitated
when storms are raging, has prevented
any direct observation of the process of
freezing the yapor of the atmosphere
into ice pellets or large masses, and
what has been decided regarding the
phenomena of hailstorms is almost
wholly the work of theory and logic.
Nevertheless some points are pretty
clearly established. - ~
In the first place, hail is the result,
as a rule, of whirling or tornado-like
storms. There may be no whirling on
the surface of the earth but, according
to the Cleveland Leader, it seems Ger
tain that in the higher regions of the
air, where hail is formed, there is al
ways an atmospheric disturbance re-
semblng what is commonly called a
cyclone when it sweeps the ground. A
curious indication of the soundness of
this conclusion was to be noted the
other afternoon, when the storm which
wrought such havoc with skylights
had passed by. Out over the lake
there was great mass of cloud, very
high and dark, which had the form of
an oval race track of enormous proper
tions. 1t might easily have been fifty
miles in length and two-thirds that
distance in width. The formation of
the cloud mass was noticeably such as
might have resulted from the violent
whirling around a moving center of the
whole bulk of cloud vapor. The ap-
pearance of the sky was thoroughly in
harmony with the accepted theory of
the formation of hail. 1t is believed
that the nucleus of a large hailstone is
usually bit of snow or snow-like ice,
which falls from the snow strata. or
level, above the rain level, into the lat
ter, and is caught up with a cloud of
raindrops and mists into the higher
freezing regions of the atmosphere by
the force of whirlwind. The rain
and water in the form of mist, which
clings to the snow nucleus, or touches
it as it is whirled swiftly up into the
intense cold, freezes around it as clear
and solid ice.
