The great secret of boredom is to be
found in two leading qualifications. A
bore must be unable to find amusement
in himself. and he must also be unable
to find amusement in any one else. He
must depend for his amusement neither
on his own mind nor on the minds of
his friends, but simply on the gratifca-
tion which it is to him to give a special
direction, or at least to suppose that he
gives a special direction-for he is a
creature of the most unlimited credul-
ity in the art of magnifying his own in
fuence-to the minds of his friends.
He is in despair unless he can imagine
himself person of influence, and un-
luckily he can never imagine himself d
person of infuence-for he is man of
very limited imaginative power-unless
he is taking overt steps to convince
somebody of something, whether it be
of some technical doctrine like Dugald
Dalgetty's strategic principle, or simply
of his own Importance, or even of the
importance Of his patrons, like Mr.. Col
lins in Pride and Prejudice. " To be a
first rate bore you must have no re-
sources in yourself and no resources in
your friends, but must depend for your
satisfactions on the real or fancied power
of making your friends either think or
do what they would otherwise not think
or do.-London Spectator.

Every one in Boston knows of old
John the Orangeman, that picturesque
and almost historical parsonage who
presides over the affections Of all Har-
ward men. And every one who knows
John knows also that his life's motto is
that familiar phrase which expresses
briefly and to the point the wish that
Yale may be forever relegated to the re-
gion Of sorrow and perpetual darkness.
One afternoon strangers were walk
ing through the yard at Harvard. and
on every hand they saw the college seal
bearing this motto, "Christo ct Eccle-
siR.''
Not being on speaking terms with
Cicero, Caesar and the other Romans,
this did nothing but to arouse their Gu
riosity.
Finally they met John.
II say!" said one of the visitors. II
see these words everywhere. Can you
tell me what they mean?"
John looked carefully at the Latin in
sciption, bit his pipe a little harder and
then replied gravely:
"Oi don't j:st know, fr'nd, but Oi
t'ink it means To h wild Yale. ~

she WEARS RUBBERS.n
A New Slang Phrase Which Has Caught on
In the Metropolis.

A New Slang Phrase Which Has Caught on
In the Metropolis.
During recent discussion between a
newspaper man and State Senator Owens
of Brooklyn on the merits of third per-
son the senator said: "Why, that man is
no good. He's not even decent. The
fellow wears rubbers."
The newspaper man was at loss to
understand the senator's meaning, but
not wishing to appear behind in the
slang of the day said nothing. The next
day he approached well known poll
tician and asked him about it.
"What does it mean when you speak
of o man as wearing rubbers?" he said.
"My boy" said the politician, "that Is
the very latest slang expression. It SIM
ply means that a man is sneak; that,
fguratively speaking. he approaches you
with muffied feet. If you go into any
police museum in the country, one of the
things they'll show you is the rubber
shoe that the sneak thief or the assassin
uses. 1t is an ordinary tennis shoe, with
q rubber sole and a canvas upper, and
the only reason it is worn by crooks is
because it gives them an opportunity to
creep up behind their victim without
being heard"
Another new bit of slang is, "He
doesn't cut any ice." 1t simply means
that he or she, whichever sex is referred
to, plays no part. Both of these express
sions are almost brand new, and the
first, at least, is likely to become much
in vogue with people who like to piece
out their vocabulary with slang. g.-Brook-

HUMAN DETECTIVES.
Methods of Treatment Suggested For Ger
tain Glasses of Public Dependents.

Methods of Treatment Suggested For Ger
tain Glasses of Public Dependents.
DIR. James w. Walk, in lecture on
"Defectives'' before the University of
Pennsylvania, defined the detectives as
those members of society having serious
mental or physical defects, either con-
genital or acquired. This group COM
prised six classes-first, the blind; sec
ond, the deaf mutes; third, insane;
fourth, tho tceblo minded, or idiots;
fifth, the inebriates- where drunken
ness has become disease-and sixth,
the epileptics.
DR.. Walk took up each of these class
es and stated what he believed to be
the best way to deal with them. OF the
blind and deaf he said: blind. deaf
and feeble minded children have as
much claim to an education as others,
and since their defects prevent them
from receiving it in the ordinary public
schools it is only just that they should
be instructed in schools especially adapt
ed to their condition. Such schools are
also a most economical investment CT
public money, for by means Of the train
ing they give the great majority Of the
blind and deaf mutes become self sup
porting In adult life.
Ito fit blind children for self support
it is necessary that their discipline
while at school should be rigid, SO as to
iE1part thoroughness in the practice of
the few industries, such as weaving and
music, which are open to them. The
managers of the best schools for the
blind now insist upon this rigid train
ing, and in this way sometimes incur
unpopularity among those who do not
understand their zeal motive.
For those of the adult blind who
cannot maintain themselves in open
competition with normal workn,cn
there should be founded in each state
industrial homes where they may reside
and labor, the deficiency in their earn
ing being supplied by bencvolcnce,
Where such homes are we'll conducted
they are nearly self supporting.
Under the stimulus of the popular
interest excited by the eloquent ad-
dresses of the great philanthropist, Doro-
thea Dix, Pennsylvania many years ago
undertook to make adequate provision
for the insane at public expense. The
first institution for their care in the
commonwealth was the insane depart
ment of the old Pennsylvania hospital.
We have now many asylums for these
people, but not enough yet to accommo-
date them all. Asylums should lie 50
regulated that the inmates can work
and be self supporting.'
DR.. Walk thought that idiots, Or the
feeble minded, should not be permitted
TO marry. Of epileptics he thought the
same, as their defects are hereditary.
Inebriates should be confined for long
period, during which they would be
forced to abstain totally. This treat
ment. he said, results often in perma-
nent cure.-PhIladelphi Press.

A Late Fad of Royalty.

The latest fad among the ladies Of the
English royal family, including, it is
said, the queen herself, is to beguile the
winter hours by plating straw for the
fabrication of hats to be presented to
their sons and husbands at the approach
ing season. A well known halter has
just finished handsome straw bat for
Prince Henry Of Battenberg, every inch
of which was plated by Princess Bea-
trice's own hands. It is said to be a re-
markably delicate piece of workman

Respect For q Mother-in-law.


A lady not long since received lesson
on the subject of proper feeling for her
mother-in-iaw which will last her a Ions
time. Her husbands family were very
affectionate toward one another-loved
one another with even more than the or
binary devotien of close kindred. It ma,
or may not be to the point to mention
that they also liked great wakes, wee
dings and christenings.
The husbands mother died in course
of time at good old age. He and his
wife had saved a little money against
the contingency of his being without
work in cold weather, when the hod car
rying business is dull. In his big gust Of
grief over the sad event, the husband re-
solved to spend every cent of that money
in giving his departed maternal relative
a grand funeral. Nothing was too good
for her. Food for his wife and baby,
keeping the wolf from the door in cold
weather, when members of his profess
sion were mostly on their uppers, was a.
nothing. A great funeral and an ele-
CANT wake the old lady must have. His
brothers and sisters were richer than he
and needed no help from him in interring
the good dame in proper, even fashiona-
BILE, style. But no! The affectionate
son whose profession was not prosperous
in cold weather would have none of that.
lie would never feel that he had done
his duty by the old lady unless he put
that $25 into a grand wake.
Unfortunately at this point there was
g difference of opinion between him and
his wife. She ventured to hint that she
and the baby needed the money more
than his mother did, especially as the
old lady's other children were quite able
and willing to provide wake that would
drown the sorrows Of the most afflicted
ai,d bereft family in the state. He in.
dignantly repudiated the idea and re-
preached her with cold heartedness and
want of feeling for her departed mother
in-law. But she insisted, unfortunately
for her own sake.
Then the grief stricken soa fell upon
her and gave her such beating that she
did not get over it in two weeks. "Ill
teach you,' said he as he mauled her
black and blue, "to show disrespect to
my mother, and che dead and in her cof-
fin and looking to all her children to
give her an elegant wake. Next time
your mother-in-law dies you'll know how
to have proper feeling for her."

AN INTERESTING DISCOVERY.
An Adventurous Miner Runs Onto q Strange
Prehistoric CITY.

u
Prehistoric City.
Manville W. Cresworth, an English
mining man well known throughout
southwest Mexico, arrived at Mapimi,
Mexico, recently from a long overland
journey through the Sierra Madre noun
tains, his starting point being Culican,
near the Pacific coast, in the state of
Sinaloa. He claims to have visited a
section of country never before visited
by a white man Of the present genera
ton, and that he discovered large and
beautiful deserted city.
He told the correspondent that the
wonderful city is situated about 80 miles
west of Lake Colorado, in the recesses of
the Sierra Madres. 1t occupies basin
about 10 miles long by eight miles wide.
Perpendicular cliffs surround the basin
on all sides, rising to height of hun
dreds of feet. The only entrance to the
city is through deep canyon, which has
width of about 30 feet. Mr.. Cresworth
states that he stumbled onto the secret
entrance quite by accident. He gives a
vivid description of the deserted city.
The buildings, he says, are construct
cd of redstone blocks resembling granite.
The business blocks are two and three
stories in height and are entirely differ
ent in architectural design from the
structures built by the Aztecs and Span
iards. The streets are very narrow, but
are laid out in regular order. In the city.
is a small park which is overgrown with
rare flowers and tropical vegetation. He
entered the business houses and decay
ing residences, but found very little of
value except some remarkable and
strange ornaments made of stone.
He believes that the city was looted at
the time that it was deserted, whenever
that may have been. No records or writ
ings of any kind were found, nor did he
discover any skeleton that would give
an idea as to the race of people who at
one time inhabited the city. None of the
natives of that section of country had
ever heard of the deserted city. Mr..
Cresworth is making diligent inquiry Of
them. Mr.. Cresworth's story is very
startling and remarkable, but it is be-
lieved by those to whom he has related
his experiences. He will organize an ex-
pedition to ulake thorough exploration
of the city.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
