The White and Black Cross Fish.

Both China and Japan have long
been known as lands where rare forms
Of both vegetable and animal life exist,
but don't remember of ever having
seen anything in print until lately con-
:erning the ''cross fish," piscatorial
wonder which abounds In the fresh
waters Of both countries. The rarest
specimen Of the two is the one known
to the Japs by term signifying 1.-The
6sh Of the black cross" 1t is pink
,olored fish belonging to the goldfish
family, only about four inches long,
Ind seemingly almost transparent,
with the exception of q jet black cross
extending down the back, with side
arms pointing down and outward to-
ward the lateral fms. The white cross
Ssh" appears to be but a variety ct the
above described species, resembling it
In general outline of form. In this
variety the skin is Of more decided
red and the tail broader and more fat
tened. 1t takes its common name from
the fact that both sides are marked
with perfect figures of white crosses.

Too Much Acting.

A stage-struck youth was studying
the part Of Hamlet for an amateur
performance, and, as is usual in such
cases everything that he said savored
somewhat Of the morose Dane. 1t
happened that one morning he came
across an excavation, with two or
three men digging below, and, with
the "gravedigger's scene" in his minds
eye, demanded, in tragic tones:
"Whose graves this, STRIP" and paused
for reply, but none came. Again he
demanded: Whose graves this, sir?"
But this time voice that appeared to
proceed from the bowels of the earth
replied, "Get out, yer born idiot, we're
only layin' gas pipe. ."-Tid-Bits.

A Retrograding State.

The population of Vermont was
1905 in 1870, 932, 1856 in 1880, and Ss2,-
t22 in 1890. In other words, the state
has been practically stationary for
twenty years, and during the decade
preceding 1890 the gain was only 1876
souls AS Burlington, Rutland, Barre
and some other large towns had sew
eral thousand more inhabitants in
1891 than in 1880, the smaller towns and
the rural communities, of course, lost
ground, and the extent of the loss is
illustrated in such facts as that during
this period the number of farms shrank
from 35,592 to 32,573, the total acreage
from 4,ss2, 1888 to 4,795,636 and the i'm
proved acreage from 3,2s6, 461 to 1885,
943, while the unimproved acreage in
creased from 1,5ee,12 to 1,729, ,7O3, and
is now larger than In 1850.

"TRAMP ALL RIGHT"
But 1T Was Queer to Find the University

But 1t Was Queer to Find the University
President in That Guise.
DR.. E Benjamin Andrews, president
of the Brown university, delegate to
the Brussels monetary conference and
q well-known writer on social, econom-
ic and religious subjects, has never
been accused Of being dandy, and
he delights in doing just such things
as is told herewith. The Providence
delegates to the big Baptist ami
versaries at Saratoga have got back,
and they know something funny.
This is what 1t is:
As the Baptist train en- route swung
by little station up in York state
the eagle-eyed operator discovered the
figure Of a man slowed away on the
rear platform, hat pulled down over
his eyes, safe from view and every
thing else except the curling dust and
flying pebbles. So the operator wired
ahead to the next station as follows;
"Look out for tramp on No So, rear
platform. Jones" The operator at
the next station promptly pulled up
the train and the conductor went to
the rear to investigate. There was
the man-a big, broad-shouldered fell
low, his hat pulled down over his eyes,
covered with dust, and 50 generally
rough and tough looking that the con-
ductor didn't banker after tackle.
So he sent for the brakeman What
followed Is indicated by the dispatch
which Operator Jones, at the back
station, received q few minutes after
from his brother operator. Here it is.

tist convention with q ticker. Takes

Snluting the Princess.

An amusing scene occurred in Stutt-
gart the other day. The kings daugh-
ter, Pauline, always goes about in very
plain attire. On this occasion she
passed sentinel who did not recog-
ntze her and neglected to perform the
proper salutations. A sergeant across
the street made violent gestures to
make him grasp the situation, where
upon the guard said to the princess:
Say, miss, the sergeant over there
wants to see you."

FISHERMAN J,M.s KIDS.

rixherman Jim lived on the hill
with his bonnie wife an his little boys,
rrwuz 'Blow, ye winds, as blow ye will
Naught We reck OF your cold and noisef'
For happy and warm were he an his,
And he handled his kids upon his knee
TO the song Of the sea-
Fisherman Jim would sail all day,
But when come night upon the sands
His little kids ran from their play,
Calm to him an wavin' their hands;
Though the wind was fresh and the sea
was high,
He'd hear 'em-you bet-above the roar
OF the waves on the shorei
Once Fisherman Jim sailed into the bay
AS the sun went down In cloudy sky,
And never kid saw he at play,
And he listened in vain for the welcoming
cry;
In his little house he learned it all,
And he clinohed his hands and he bowed his
head
THE feverI" they said.
'Twuz pitiful time for Fisherman Jim
With them darlin's a-dyin' afore his eyes,
A-stretohin' their wee hands out to him
An a-breakin' his heart with the old-tirne
he had heerd 80 often upon the sands,
For they thought they wuz helpin' his boat
ashore
Till they spoke no more.
But Fisherman Jim lived on and on,
Castin' his nets an sailin' the sea;
As q man will live when his heart is gone
Fisherman Jim lived hopelessly.
Till once in those years they come en- said,
"Old Fisherman Jim is powerful SICK
Go to him, Quick'
Then Fisherman Jim says he to me:
'Its long, long cruise-you understand
But over beyont the ragin sea
I kin see my boys on the shinin' sand
Waitin' to help this OIL hulk ashore
Just as they used to-ah, mate, you know
In the long ago."
No, sir! he wuzn't afeard to die;
For all night long he seemed to see
His little boys Of the days gone by
An to hear sweet voices forgot by moi
An Just as the mornin sun come up
They're holdin' me by the hands," he cried,
An so he died

To Lily Maud this was excruciating-
ly funny. The teacher again being
absent she looked at Rose Marie and
giggled. From their places Annette
and Jennie and Alicia were watching
with anxiety. Matilda's face was
flushing. Was she going to be ashamed
Of her plain old father and mother?
No, she was not. Her head went up
imperiously. Her blue eyes flashed.
And then, with grace and dignity
she had never shown before, she de-
voted herself to entertaining her
father and mother. If they had been
king and queen she could not have
shown them moro Difference and re-

exultation: "But Matte isn't ashamed

at last, and the slow moving crowd
making its way toward the stairs
won't you introduce me to your
father and mother, Matilda"
Matilda turned to look into the
friendly eyes Of Annette Watterson.
Her composure almost gave way, for
close behind Annette she saw Jennie
and Alicia looking at her with the
same friendliness. Her lips quivered
with sudden Joy, for now her parents
need not know how alone she had

The taste for short stories. in place OF
the ancient three volume novel, has been
cultivated even In conservative England
and has become 30 widespread In the
United States that very few periodicals
which deal in fiction at all are without
their stories begun and finished in q ain
gle issue. The talent required to pro
duce fascinating and successful fiction
in this narrow compass Is q peculiar one,
and while there are numerous failures
there are also o surprising number Of
successes. Well written, descriptive ar
ticles, too, are In demand, and special
cravings for personal gossip and Lively
sketches of notable living characters are
manifest. That perennial interest which
mankind and womankind evince in ev-
cry individual whose name, for whatev-
er reason, has become familiar supplies
n basis for an inexhaustible series OF
light photographic articles.-New York

The production Of Artificial sun.

Experiments with vegetable pulp
have demonstrated the feasibility Of
silkmaking by machinery. At no
distant day the silkworm will find
her occupation gone, and in place Of
the cocoon we will have enormous
spools Of silk drawn directly from
pulp. Vegetable fiber is made into
collodion and is then forced through
finely perforated metal plates. The
slender threads that issue are at once
submerged in water. This takes up
the volatile elements Of the collodion
and hardens the threads, which be
come elastic and solid.
The filaments are SO fine that it re
quires nearly q dozen to make a
thread that can be handled with safe
ty. Extreme fineness is necessary
in order to give the required softness
and flexibility. With this comes u
degree of brittleness that makes the
product frail almost past handling.
When machinery of sufficient deli.
cacy can be invented to carry and
manage these tiny lines without
breaking them. we may be able to
engage in silkmaking as readily as
in paper making, and with quite as
satisfactory results. Experiments
have thus far been made with per
fectly successful results in all partic-
ulars save the one noted. New York

Tn. ssins of the Ns,sle.

The leaf and stem Of nettle are lit
orally clothed with erect hollow hairs.
II one Of these hairs is viewed under q
microscope, 1t will be seen that It's Free
end, after tapering to very fine degree
Of slimness. finishes as little knob,
while in the other direction. after grad.
ually becoming more robust, II suddenly
expands into a large bulb, corresponding
with the poison gland of the adder.
The point Of the hair is very brittle,
and contact with our skin causes the end
to snap of, leaving a hollow needle point
which readily pierces our cuticle. and
pressing upon the bulb at the other end
the poison is forced through the central
channel and infiames our blood. The
tender handed who stroke the nettle are
stung for their pains. because their gen.
tleness has only served to break the brit
tie points and rendering them fit for
piercing. but the rough handed break
the hairs ct their thickest parts, where
they are too stout TO prick.-Good

1t Is many years since Messrs. Man
by q Wilson got the French hands in
their Clarendon foundry to eat as
much meat as their English hands
and found, as they had hoped, that
as soon as the better diet had time TO
tell they did nearly as much work as
the English too. Irishmen have long
been notoriously poor workmen in
their own country. Mr.. Fox, q man
ufacturer in Cork and Manchester,
informed the trades union commits
sion that though he paid 20 per cent
lower wages in his Cork factory than
In his Manchester one the work done
cost him exactly the same in both.
But the Irishman in England and
America, working under the higher
wages prevailing there, becomes as
good q workman as any in the coun-
try.-Contemporary Review.
