THOMAS FELL DOWN.
Wilmot Showed Up in the Pink of

Form.
When Wilmot and Thomas met in the
Foley billiard tournament last night to
decide their standing in the supple
mental series of games to decide first
and second place, it proved Waterloo
for Thomas. He was evidently not
in his usual steady form. Wimot
started out at railroad speed, and i'll
his first ten innings, bridged double
figures five times. Meanwhile Thomas
was cantering along at al easy gait. and
he had left his spurs at home. From
the tenth to the twenty-second inning
Wilmot sandwiched Ill not a few
ciphers, cutting down his average some
what, with Thomas still swinging along
at an easy gait. In the twenty-third
inning Wilmot lit out with a few sky
scrapers, and long, low, rakish bound

The Grateful Dog.

There was a little girl who lived
in Rome, Italy. She was about
ten years old. She was a kind.
hearted girl, and always treated
dumb animals kindly. Near her
home she often met a poor half
starved dog. This dog was not
beautiful, nor was he clean, but
she pittied him because he had
been treated unkindlyi and could
not get enough to eat. She often
fed hlm 9ith crumbs from her
lunch and caressed bin. The dog
seemed to appreciatr her kindness.
One day the little girl was play.
ing on bridge which crossed the
TIber river. She was careless and
fell from the bridge into The water.
Many people saw her fall, but they
could not help her. They ran
about the bridge. The policemen
who saw her, were afraid to go
into the water to saye the girl, aud
she was about to be drowUed. Sud.
denly a lean yellow dog came
barking tOlthe river. He sprang
INTO the water and swan out to
the girl. He seized her dress and
drew her to the shore. When he
saw that she was safe he jumped
about and barked loudly. He
licked the girls face and hands
and showed that he was very
glad. 1t was The dog which the

A Few Things to Avoid.

Never delay IN answering letters
or returning boz ks.
Never tell long stories of which
you yourself are the hero.
Never Inconvenience people by
coming IN late at church, theater,
lecture or concert.
Never stop people who are
hurrying along the street and
detain them for 10 or 20 minutes.
Never call upon people just at
bedtime, or during dinner, or be-
fore they are down stairs in the
morning.
Never when you see two people
engaged in earnest talk, step In
with miscellaneous conversation.
Never speak disrespectfully OF
your parents nor of yonr sisters.
People may laugh at your wit,
but they will despIse you for 1t.
Never begin to talk about "this
that and everything" to one who is
trying to read the morning papers,
or a book, or anything else.
Never talk when others are
singing or doing anything else for
your amusment, and never the
instant they have finished begin
TO talk upon different topic.

THE cZaR'S JoTTiNGs.
Characteristic Comments OF the Ruler Of

All the huBHa4
1t is the daily official work. of the
car to read and sign edicts, ukases,
laws and reports. Upon the margins
of these documents he writes his de.
cision or his impressions with frank.
ness which makes these jottings more
characteristic Of the man than his con-
versations with his ministers and cour.
tiers. NJ. Lanin, Russian, reports in
the Contemporary Review several Of
these marginal jottings.
They are a set Of hogs" is phrase
that recnrs frequently. What beast
he isl is another. "Discouraging" is
the sterotyped commentary written
upon reports of fires, of failure of crops
or OF some other calamity.
Two years ago the czar wrote this
disparaging remark upon the margin
Of document prepared by his own inn
perial council: The council thought
to trick me, but they sha'n't.' AS il is
the custom TO glaze everything the
czar thus pens and preserve it in the
imperial archives, the members of the
council were highly indignant when
they heard Of the libel. The state Sec
cretary was requested to explain mat
ters to the emperor.
"Well, and what do they want done?'
asked the car.
That your majesty would be gra-
eiously pleased to order that the words
should not be glazed over nor pre-.
served in the imperial archives, lest
they should be endowed with an invidi-
Gus species of immortality"
What foolishness." exclaimed the
car, smiling. However, I'll have the
words struck out" The libel disap-
peared.

FLYING MACHINES.
Among other Things They Would Open
I'd Vast Tracts Of Land TO Usefulness.


Samuel Cabot, manufacturing
chemist OF Boston, is interested in fly
ing machines. At present he as tryins
10 discover the best form of aerial
screw--one which will give the great
est push with the least amount Of
power. IN an interview with a re-
porter OF the Boston Traveller. he said
Two questions have been frequently
asked, which perhaps it will be worth
while to answer now, and as part Of
nv reply will be in the form OF
prophecy, this 'credo' may be worth
the trouble of preservation to compare
with the developments of the future.
What important service can flight III
air serve? Maxim, Langley and all
who have studied the subject thor
oughly, agree that the speed OF aeria-
tion will greatly exceed that Of any
terrestrial locomotion. From this fol-
lows an entire economic change in the
direction of rendering immense tracts
Of comparatively worthless territory
at distances of twenty to forty miles
from cities much more available.
There would also result the relegating
OF city property in large measure to
business and storage purposes. This
would to a large extent accomplish
what Henry George sighs for, but
would do it by means which do not in
volye any wrong to the land owner by
the wage Garner. With flying nayies,
capable Of carrying unseen at night
large quantities Of explosives TO the
center Of q city, war would become 50
destructive that it would be soon sup
planted by arbitration as a matter Of
common sense and self-preservation.
Arbitration once established, an in
ternational police system. controlling
n1tions as we do individuals, and en-
forcing the DEGREES Of boards of arbi-
tration, would be enormously assisted
by this power Of rapid and, if neces-
sary, destructive patrolling. Immense
areas OF country. now well nigh i'm
penetrable, would be open to useful
ness. Large sources Of wealth would
thus be added to the civilized world,
and would result in the amelioration
of the condition o. the sayages of such
regions as central Africa. We should
have to give up selfish legislation anG
restriction upon the commerce OF other
nations, and be obliged perforce to
stand on broader heritage than that
of nation or of zone"
