DOG THAT WORMS TOBACCO.

Ksntusky Canine That Il Hired o~t ~ .
Field Hand.
Speaking of funny things, did you
ever hear of, wonderful dog that Is
owned by John A. Durr, who lives At
Vanarsdau, q little settlement down In
Mercer county, KY? asks the Chicago
Times. This dog beats Dick Bruce's
and Tom Quinlin's dogs all holler. He
is worth his weight in gold. He worms
tobacco. He begins at the end OF the
row and goes down the line at q lively
oait. and no worm is left. to tell the
tale of the desqlation wrought. The
dog learned this trick by following
Durr's little boys. When the boys
would start down the row tho dog
would follow along.
After watching the youngsters Tor
several days the dog caught on TO the
work himself and took . great liking
to il One day, Durr went ont TO his
tobacco patch and found his boys play
inp in the shade, which was not .
strange thing for boys to do. why

back. Durr went to the patch and
found the big. pointer dog bnsily en-
gagged in worming tho plants. and he

could have done. Durr was tickled to
death. After his own patch had heen

noIuP ON BAND DISCIPLINE.

Gen. sch~neid's Criticism OF Sousa's Fa-
NOUS Musical Aggregation.
How Conductor Sonsa was taken to
task by Gen. Schoield for his lack OF
discipline is told by. thes San Francisco
Chronicle. The last echo OF one OF
Sousa's oycrturcs was just dying away
over the sand hills south OF the fair
grounds, when Gen. Scho6cld stepped
in front of the band and saluted the
distinguished leader. Sousa returned
the salute and sent one of his men to
escort the general up into the band
stand.
!. ..That music. was beautiful beauti-
full exclaimed the general, as he shook
Sousa.s hand warmly. II am astonished,
sir, that You get such results with SO
little discipline"
There is nothing that Sousa prides
himself more on than being one OF
strictest Of disciplinarians, and he was
naturally nettled at the generals crlti'
cism.
ssWhy, general, my men are under
perfect control. I'm sure they are
thoroughly drilled and l can hardly
believe that there is any lack of disci-
mime. I-have never noticed it.

ARE WOMEN ABUSED BY MEN,

4 oenersl Fsminins Disposltioa ia. Graz
BILE at Their Hard rate.
Do you think. women ara really
abused as much as they claim to be?
asks the ''Quiet Observer" In the Pitts
burg Gazette.
1t seems to be fact that a majority
Of them, married and single, believe
they are abused by the men just be-
cause the latter happen to have control
Of business affairs, run politics. and DO
the courting.
The woman of manageable age who
is still living at home feels that men
are not doing right by her. She natur-
ally wants to marry, have q big we'd
ding, and 60 on tour OF the eastern
cities, or western, as the case may be.
But she has to go on waiting because
no man asks her to join him in these
festivities. For this reason she feels
that she is IN abused creature.
The old maid who has settled down
to earn her own living just hates the
men because they allow her to wear
her finger nails off scratching for bread
The sight of man walking comfort
ably along the street, or driving, or
even lounging around some resort,
causes her indignation to rise to the
top notch. Why do they thus continue
to abuse her?
The shop girl wonders why the boys
do not gather around and ask her to
choose one of them to be her defender
and supporter, She is quite certain
that she should not be permitted to
~ ~f ho,p fNy.rx an
whole of the blame is placed on the
young men who are earning money
enough for two and spending it for
their own comfort.
Married women are the loudest COM
planners and their complaints are gen.
orally against their husbands. 1t is all
right during the honeymoon, but when
that is over and they turn to face the
realities of life she feels that she is be-
ing abused. Her household duties are
heavier than when she was at home;
her husband is not the signing lover
who filled her heart with joy, and her
days are not as thickly interspersed
with picnics as when she was girl
AS she thinks over this she becomes
more deeply convinced that she is
much abused woman, that husbands
are not half as nice as beaux, and is
quite certain she never would have mar
ried had it not been for the men.
Yet, in spite of all this, the abused
woman is a most inveterate match
maker, revels in gossip about prospec-
tive unions and reads the paper
that publishes the longest list Of
marriage notices. No matter how un-
happy her life, nor how much of it she
blames on her own marriage, she finds
her greatest delight in getting others
to do the same thing she feels like kick
ing herself for having done.
No doubt some women are abused,
and sadly abused, but how about the
men? Think of the life of the man who
has been so unfortunate as to get
wife of this stripe. He may be no good
and fully deserve his punishment, yet
it often SO happens that he does all in
his power to stop these complaints
Suppose we call it q standoh or agree
that both parties are greatly abused.

THOSE BACHELOR GIRLS.

How Ths9 RAdlsto Happiness and Have
The world has improved in one re-
spect. There was time when the
woman who did not marry was sup
posed to be q subject for jest; when it
was concluded that she remained un-
wed because she could not do anything
else.
Nowadays it is all changed, and the
woman who does not marry has .
recognized position socially, and we
have all grown wise enough to know
that any woman who wishes can
marry, says the New York correspond
ent OF the Pittsburgh Press. 1t is true
she may not marry the man she most
admires, but always she can marry
some man; so that if she stays out her
life alone is by her own choice:
Then, too, the beautiful friendships
that may exist between women are
recognized, and the possibility Of q
home being made without q man in it
is certainty. In fats, in dainty little
houses, two or three bachelor women
(they don't call themselves girls).
whose lives are 90 arranged that one
can be the homekeeper while the other
is out in the world, are happy and conn
Portable from day to day.
And better still. they are not only
happy themselves, but they make less
fortunate women glad by bringing
them in to share some Of their pleas~
urea. They give agreeable little dinner
parties, they entertain in quiet ways,
and always these women whose names
are not heard in connection with votes
nor whose pictures are seen In the
papers, as among those who intend to
remodel the city government. pc
The editor Of well-known literary
paper is one Of those women, and she

RlCN. BUT STOLE A SAUSAGE.
4 Quser Case q Kleptomanja Recently
Brought TO Light In Paris.

Brought to Light In Paris.
We all have heard in. our lives of
kleptomania, but do not think that
anyone ever really believed In it, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph. We know
vaguely that man who steals whole
railroads and dies millionaire is =
great fnancier, and we also know that
aman who steals . loaf Of bread to
save his far.ily from starvation is q
thief and goes to Jail, but it is hard to
realize that there are people who steal
trifles sim >ly from species Of insan-
ity.. Yet . shining example Of this has
Just come to light in Paris. The lady,
whose name for obvious reasons it is
not well to mention, is . well known
figure in Paris society.
She is extremely handsome and
dresses superbly, but il never seen in
public alone. Some member of her
family. always accompanies her and
never leaves her side for an instant, al
though q married woman over thirty
years Of age does not usually require
such minute chaperonage. She is .
very charming woman, and . very
brilliant conversationalist, and is
most deservedly popular here. The
horror. of her friends may be, guessed
when she was arrested recently on the
Faubourg Montmartre for stealing .
sausage valued at eight cents from the
front OF q grocery. The grocer had her
promptly arrested, and on searching
her they found; some potatoes, some
eggs, an opera glass, ., photograph OF
Carnot, q coffee cup and saucer and, .
spoon, and also, unhappily, her card
case, giving her full name and address,
the only thing that was legally her
property, a. the other articles were
claimed by their rightful owners, from
whom she had annexed them: The
family were aent for, and by paying
for the stolen objects were able to re-
lease their poor relative, who sat weep

QUICKEST HANGING ON RECORD

IAxal Execution Performed Inside Of -Four
Minutes to Accommodate Reporters.
Capt. J. B. Patten, warden Of the In
diana state prison at Jeffersonville,
has the record for experimenting the
quickest. legal hanging ever accom-
plished in this or any other country,
says the st. Louis Republic. The laws
of Indiana prescribe that the death
sentence must he executed between
midnight and the dawn of the day set
bv the court. A man named Stone had
butchered q whole family in Davis
county, of that state, and had been
condemned to death. The case was
celebrated one, and newspaper men
from Indianapolis and Louisville went
down to Jeffersonville in perfect
phalanx to witness and report the
famous criminals exit from this vale
IT tears. They arrived in the early
evening, expecting to return to their
homes on train leaving Jeffersonville
about one o'clock, by which time they
expected the execution to be over. To
their intense disappointment and
chagrin they discovered that the last
train they could take departed from
the prison town at twelve o'clock at
night.
Having determined this they set
about arranging matters SO they could
see the hanging and yet catch the
train. They telegraphed the circum-
stances ahead to the conductor, asking
him to hold the train until after the
execution. He consented to hold it
five minutes only. They were filled
with despairi Who ever heard OF
hanging, including prayers, speech
making, ETC., in I've brief minutes?
But, nevertheless. they commenced to
work ON Warden Patten. The result
was that everything was at once gotten
ready for sending the murderer to
eternity. Promptly at the stroke Of
midnight the parson finished his
prayer; in Ave more seconds the moose
was around the condemned mans peck,
the black cap drawn, the trap sprung
and in two minutes and twenty-five
seconds the attending physician pro-
nounced the murderer corpse. Car
riages waiting outside the inclosure
bore the reporters to the train in an
other minute, and with nearly seventy
seconds to spare the train pulled out.

THE DREAM OF CHEMISTRY.
Hopes In Time to Produce Palatable Beef
steaks Out of the Elements

The electrician has one dream and
the social philosopher has another.
But the chemist has also vision of the
alehemist of the dark ages. This is
how he would solve the problems of
comfort and happiness which have been
put to the human race:
''The chemist hopes for synthetic
beefsteak, for chemical loaf, for a
cup of coffee made, like his sodawater
extracts, out of inorganic matter He
wants to see the day when a synthetic
climate shall envelop the earth, when
the rainmaker shall be a prophet and
man shall hold the string to the unruly
bags of Aeolus.
SIN that day the food and raiment of
mankind will be produced in the
crucibles of the chemist Once more
verdure will clothe the fields now de-
faced by human toll, and the shaggy
woods will spring anew on the de-
spoiled slopes of the hills. There will
be no tilling or harvest, no slaughter
ing of tame beasts. Out of the original
elements chemistry will compound
chops and outlets, knead the dough
and brew ale.
'The battle has already been partly
won in the case of medicines and drugs.
The wine at the table d'hote never saw
the vineyard. The prize fruit flowers
of the drug store are innocent of the
orchard and garden. Synthetic chem
istry is yet young. 1t has made great
advances in the production of glycerine
and sugar. It has four thousand devo-
tees in this country who hope to make
the dream reality"

RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD.
Elm Demidoff, a Russian Whose Wealth
Is of Recent Creation.


Is of Recent Creation.
Like the English millionaires, those
of the czar's dominions mostly derive
their revenues from landed property.
While the Briton, however, devotes a
large part of his gross income toward
improving his possessions and to the
amelioration of the lot of his tenants in
one way or another, the Russian, on
the other hand, extracts every farthing
that he can from his property and
spends it upon himself, the result being
that agriculture in Russia is going
from bad to worse, that formerly fer
tile and productive estates have now
become barren and impoverished, and
that, while the peasantry are in state
of misery bordering on famine, the
mobiles themselves have been obliged to
mortgage or sell their lands, and are at
the end of their financial tether. OF
course, there are some exceptions, such
as, for instance, the Yousoupoffs, the
Demidofs and the Scheremetieffs. The
wealth of the Demidoffs is so vast, &C
cording to the New York Tribune, that
it is beyond calculation, and strangely
enough the fortune is of relatively re-
cent creation, its founder having been
a country blacksmith in the days of Pc
ter the Great. 1t was while travelling
in the Ural mountains that the latter
broke one of his most valuable English
pistols. A village smith mended it so
quickly and so well that the car was
delighted and asked the mans name.
''Demidoff, l shall remember you" said
he as he rode off. The poor man was
beginning to think that Peter had for
gotten him when there came an official
document adorned with the imperial
seal, granting him the freehold of a
great tract of crown land in the neigh
borhood of the village. Demidof went
to work on his new property and found
there inexhaustible mines of iron, sill
yer and malachite. Young Elm Dem
idoff-he does not bear in Russia the
Italian title of prince generally pre-
fixed to his name by foreigners-is at
the present moment the richest man in
the world, Princess Yousoupoff, with
her great turquoise mines, coming next
in rank. Fortunately, both of them
are more free-handed and generous
than their respective immediate pred
ecessors as head of the family, the late
Anatole Demidof and the late Prince
Yousoupoff having been alike renowned
for their meanness and avarice, of
which almost incredible stories are re-
lated.
