Got Him Sure.

Whoever has seen the Washington
monument in Baltimore, with the
crouching bronze lion of Barge near
its base, will appreciate the story
they tell about the rustic huntsman
on his first visit to town. He was
shown all the objects in Baltimore
one by one, but gave each only a
passing glance, and not even so much
as a word of comment. When he
came in sight of the Washington
monument, however, new light
shot from his eye At last it was OBJ
vious that something had been found
to interest him. He scanned the
shaft for some minutes, running his
eye from the base to the point on
which the statue stood and back
again, then fastened his gaze on the
crouching lion as if fascinated. His
lips parted, and his city friends drew
near to hear his criticisms Of the
sculptor's art. At last out came the
words:
"B'gad, he's got the old man freed,
amt he!"--Kate Fields Washington.

A MarshaI's Portraits.

Maurice Patrick MacMahon was
not sent to school young, but had pri-
vate tuition at home. He was then
placed at seminary taught by
priests at Autun, from which he was
removed to coaching establishment
for the military school of st. Cyr, at
Versailles. His two elder brothers
were already officers in Hussar regi-
ments. All the family were fond of
horses and were daring riders.
Charles, the eldest, broke his neck in
lS45 while competing for steeple-
chase prize for gentlemen riders at
Autun.
They we're all fanciers Of English
thoroughbredS. The Marshal was
never without a few in his stables,
He owed his life on many occasions,
when acting as an aid-de-camp, to
the feetness and cleverness of an
English or an Irish horse. At the
exhibition of equestrian art, which
was held eight years ago at the Rue
de Seze, family portrait was shown
Of Charles, Joseph, and Maurice Pat
rick de MacMahon (the future Mar
SHAY, in their uniforms, canterlng in
a glade, 1t was a spirited painting,
and gave the impression Of the ella
tion and freshness of youth.
Another sketchy picture, by Horace
Vernet, represented the MacMahon
family at a hunting meet in front Of
the chateau of Sully Ga kind of Bur
gundian Warwick CASTLE, with their
friends, who had come to hunt in
the woods round them. The mate
rial conditions and the company are
aristocratic. Still, there is sweet,
genial, friendly air, common to all
the MacMahons, which excludes the
idea Of "the cold shade of aristoc'
racy." The servants seem as well off
as the horses. Maurice Patrick (the
MarshaD, a gentlemanly, elegantly
built young fellow, Of fair, beam

Faculty, the Director Of the Paris
Observatory, and the Professor Of
Astronomy-as admirably written
and of great scientific merit.
A German by origin and an Ameri-
can by birth, Mile. Klumpke followed
in the footsteps Of Sophia German,
Maria Agnesi and Nine. Sophia
Kromalewska, and studied mathe-
matiCs principally with view of
Of their application to astronomy.
She was first employed at the
Paris Observatory on the staff
of the equatorial, an instrument
to observe and register the daily
movement of the stars. The late
Admiral Mouches, who directed the
observations, thought very highly Of
Mile Klumpke's talents, and trans
ferred her to the department intrust-
ed with the construction Of the stel-
lar chart for which the newest de-
velopments Of sidereal photography
are utilized. For this purpose the
sky has been divided into segments,
and to each of the partitions a group
of photographers is apportioned. The
negatives are taken on very sensitive
plates, which, after having been de-
veloped and printed, are joined to-
gether to form the chart. On these
cliches the relative position Of the
stars at a given time is fixed, and
comparative observations can be made
with the aid of a powerful micro
scope, without again having to resort
to the telescope. On this kind Of
work Mile. Klumpke is engaged in
the portrait, which is reproduced
from the Queen. Mile. Klumpe be-
longs to talented family. One Of
her sisters is a doctor of medicine,
and was the first woman physician
admitted to Paris hospital; a second
sister is distinguished painter, and
two others are writers.

Six Meals a Day.

Queen Victoria has evidently pom.

must eat to live. At Balmoral,
where she lives in the simplest posi-
BILE way, she begins her day at 8
o'clock with tea, chocolate or coffee
and dry toast At $3.50 she has
breakfast, small trout freshly caught
from the River Dee being an invari-
able dish. At 1890, after her morning
outing she has a little refreshment-
an egg beaten up in milk, some SOUP
and little fruit. She lunches at 2.
Later in the afternoon there is the
invariable afternoon tea, and between
8 and 8 dinner is served. Thus on
six meals a day does her Majesty
manage to sustain nature.

The Dakota straw stove.

The straw stove will enable its
possessor to dispense with the neces-
sity of purchasing fuel where straw

be made by any tinsmith. 1t consists
of a drum two feet in diameter ap-

with one end covered, made Of sheet
iron, such as is used in stovepipe: a
stand upon which to place the drum,
simply and inexpensively made, the

tie to Their Death.
One Of the most interesting AMI
mails in the world is the big steer
known as Phil Armour, which is EN-.
ployed In a unique capacity in the
Stock Yards at Chicago. His sole oc-
cupation is decoylng cattle to their
death by first gaining their confidence
under the guise Of friendship, and
then by traitorous deceit he turns
them over TO the executioner. He
meets those marked for slaughter at
the gate of the pen where they are
confined and from there they by in.
stinct follow him to the Strengthening
pen. Phil knows his business we'll,
and If some wild animals should rush
off in the wrong direction he gravely
follows and with the grace of an
usher at wedding shows them the
way through the last gate they ever
enter, Phil is always on the right
side Of it, though when it closes.
Twenty-Five hundred cattle are led
to their death by him each day.
Pills history docs not SAVIOR Of
much romance. He came to the yards
when calf from his Texas home,
and escaped being converted into
veal through some juvenile ailment
He soon became a favorite with the
men and boys around the place and
was an especial favorite with the
foreman whom he would follow
around like a dog. When the men
attempted to teach him to decoy ami
mails, which formerly required the
work of a regiment of cowboys, he
seemed to catch the idea almost i'm.
