was over in the Pennsylvania depot the other day when train came in bearing a young man who stood over six feet high and had arms as long as the picl1ets on a fence, says the Detroit Free Press. He was making inquiries about the ferry boats when he spied a loudly dressed young fellow not far away, whom anybody would have picked out as a travelling fallir. The giant from the country made three long steps and picked the fai1ir off his feet and slammed him down and as he held him on the blanks he said:
 ''Durn yer hide, but thought I'd run across ye agin some day. IIOw's the tooth-powder swindle? How'S sellin' a man sunthin' that's split every durned tooth in his head tryin' to clean 'em? I'm goin' to make a cold corpse of you in jest two minutes!"
 But the police were on hand to haul him off and insist that he go his way. The fakir had been roughly used and couldn't get his breath for several min utes. When the big depot had got through whirling around with him I asked him if he had been in the tooth powder business, and he smiled in a sicllly way as he replied:
 II never was. He takes me for my twin brother Joe, who goes about sell ing that stuff. It takes the enamel off, but Joe keeps right on scllingit Hang that hayseed-he almost killed mel"
 And you also have line?" l asked.
 ''Oh. yes, I sell sure cure for con sumption for only twenty-five cents a bottle and throw in a pair of eyeglasses worth half dollar with each sale, but that fellow wasn't after me. It was the tooth powder and I must speak to Joseph and warn him of the error of his VvaT-S

Ara camp meeting recently held at Old Orchard, Maine, nearly S75, eco was raisd one Sunday by contributions from those present for the foreign missions.

A Diet of Gut ta Percha.

Gutta percha doesn't appeal to most people as an article of diet, but there is a small, an exceedingly small, subma- rine animalcule that positively delights in it. This interesting creature is called the ''gibble," and it is only real ly happy while it is browsing on the gutta purcha that is used for the sheathing of submarine cables The layers of submarine cables are so afraid diet of gutta percha won't agree with the gibbles that they are sheathing the wires with brass. Possi- ply, though, their anxiety may not be so much for the gibble's health as for the cables safety. On the whole this does appear to be the more likely sup position

 WAsHIyGToN, Aug. 17.-SecTetary Morton of the department of agricul- ture heard 8rRuments by many of bis subordinateg in favor of silver. Yes .erday being the semi-monthly pay day, he ordered the pay master of the de- pa,tment to pay out 5000 in silver coin. this money We eGhing sixty pounds.
 Unless MT. Morton receives a peti- tion to the contrary it is expected silver will be paid out again and again on pay day to men known to favor it as eur renCy,
 There was B good deal of kicking among tue employes and a good many have indicated to the peymaster they want paper money next day. One of the men, who was given several pounds of silver to carry home last evening, remarked JoCdg:
 "I think Secretary Morton very un- fair in what he terms his object lesson. He might as we'll pay us in nickel pieces, or copper penIes, and if we pro- test it is not convinent form of money to carry he might say we are not in favor of copper and nickel coin. As q natter of fact, if man were paid. say Sl6. 900 in gold coin which he would be :aslsed to carry home with him, he would protest as strongly as we protest at be. ing paid our monthly galleries in silver dollars"

Chinese Cannibals.

The Chinese are cannibals China's
so-called civilization Of thousands Of
years hasnot sueieedcd in doing away
with cannibalisin among it's own
people. When Chinese have been en-
gagged in warfare with tribes on the
mainland, we hear Of this eating OF hu-
man flesh, but not until reached For
mosa did I have proof Of its truth.
After killing a savage on the island, the
head is severed from the body and is
placed on pole to exhibit to those nm
sortunates who are not at hand to wit
ness this heartless display Of slaughter
and mutilation. The body then divil-
I'd among the captors and eaten. The
kidney, liver, heart and sole Of the foot
are considered the most desirable por-
tions, and are usually cut up in very
small pieces, bciled, and eaten as sort
of soup. The flesh and bones are boiled
and made into jelly. The Chinese
profess to believe, In accordance with
an old superstition, that the eating Of
this savage flesh win give them
strength and courage. To some this
superstition may be partial excuse for
this horrible custom, but even that falls
through if one stops to think that su-
perstitious beliefsa are at the bottom Of
cannibalism as practiced by the most
savage tribes of the world

society Of London, traced the history Of
the harp from the shadows Of mythol-

the first musical instrument on record
and was the principal one Of ancient
and medieval times. All the skill and
artistic genius Of the Egyptians were

tome and pitch Of the harp to perfec-

She grew to have 8 very warm regard
for him, but the time came when, on
account ofincreasing age and infirmity,
he was pensioned off, and some one else
was put in his place.
II grieved him much to change his
habits, but he was in some degree CON
soled at being allowed to attend Ger
tain royal entertainments, and il was
at one Of these that he distinguished
himself by somewhat eccentric action
which greatly amused his former mis-
tress.
He was wandering forlornly about,
alone, when the queen, ever mindful Of
her old and tried servants, hastened to
ward him with extended hand and q
word OF kindly greeting.
He took the proffered hand and held
it for moment, while he gazed with q
smiling though puzzled expression al
the queen. Then he said:
