Free negroes in old slavery times were
themselves really the owners of slaves Of
their own color. The Baltimore Sun pub
fishes the following deed of emancipation,
bearing date December o. 1893, duly
recorded in record book No 3d. page 312, in
the clerks office of the circuit court at
Easton, Talbot county, Md:

A similar deed of emancipation was re-

May II, 1874. There were afterwards other
deeds Of emancipation by free negroes of
slaves purchased or otherwise acquired.
Similar records have been found in New
York and Massachusetts,, and perhaps they
could be found in Virginia and other states.

FUN BROUGHT FAME.

An Encounter with "Cop' Suggested a
~ "Popular" Song.
1t is mystery to many how a ''popu'
lar" song becomes popular. 1t seems
to spring out of the pavement or to
sing on the back of the wind. A popu-
lar song is usually genuine inspira-
ton, which often comes in queer way.
One night last year Stanley Wood, the
dra4natist and editor of the Great Di-
vide, hurried up to the post Office
in haste to inquire about a letter. All
the doors on Park row were closed,
and Mr.. Wood was in supreme disgust.
''Say, officer" he exclaimed to po-
liceman near BY, show on earth am
going to get into the post Officer"
You'll find your mail in Heaven,
young fellow" said the cop, ''if you
try to get into the post Office by the
Park row DOORS"
+ The officers reply seemed amusing to
Mr.. Wood, and it took in his mind the
form of comic story in verse. But
there seemed to be a false note, and
Mr.. Wood turned his poem into pa
thetic little story and some one wrote
appropriate music. The song was pub
lished, and one day Mr.. Wood was
amazed to find everybody around the
theaters in Chicago whistling his song.
Th4t is the story of how "Wait, Mr..
Postman," happened to come into ex-
istence and become popular.

GANDER AGAINST Scar.

And the Cub Did Not Come Out Best In
=. .@ the Eight.
An Alameda salsonkeeper has a
black bear cub about foot and a hall
high when he stands on his hind legs
and reaches for strangers coat-tails.
He is full Of mischief or fight, as oc-
casion may require, but withal very
discreet. He knows he is not big
enough to whip the grocer's dog, but
he doesn't hesitate to intimidate the
candy mans cat.
The other day, says the San Fran
cisco Post, big gander marched grave
~ up the street. The bear sized him
up, and said to himself:
HES my meat"
He advanced on the gander, who
marched slowly and steadily on till the
growing cub barred his way. Then he
extended his wings, stretched out his
neck and tried to make the cub
ashamed of himself. The bear made
two or three vicious, but Intellectual,
cuffs at the gander and then stopped to
see what he had accomplished.
just at this juncture the gander took
firm hold on the cubs ear and com
smenced pounding him over the head
with his wings. The cub was quit
ter, and started to beat a precipitoua
retreat, but the gander wouldn't let
go. He just hung on and thumped
away. AL
= When the dust and feathers settled
the gander was trying to find the ten
der portion of what appeared to be q
piece Of the bears ear.

THE sPARRow5AhD THE CLOCK.

"a strange Story Told at the Paris Poly
II technic School.
4 "A French paper tells the following
strange story Of q sparrow and the
clock at the Polytechnic school Of
Paris: M! MI IS i.t VI
u In 1910 the Swedish scientist, Ber-
.zelins, during his stay in Paris, went
to the school to make some expert
ments in physics and chemistry before
the pupils. TO show the necessity OF
air in the respiration of animals he
placed a sparrow under the receiver Of
the air pump and created vacuum.
At the moment when the bird was
about to die for want of oxygen, the
cry of ercy!Mercy!" echoed from all
sides Of the amphitheater, Berzelius
acquiesced in the decision of his hui
name audience and released the bird,
which flew at once out Of the hall. @5
After that day a strange thing hap
pencd and kept on happening Every
Wednesday and Sunday, at the moment
when the great hand of the clock was
within one minute of ten, and would in
sixty seconds mark the fatal hour of
leaving the playground and entering
school, an obstacle seemed to stop it.,
and the astonished doorkcepcr noticed
that this last min ute had an inconceiv-
able length. =.
The fact was noted again and again,
and a watch was set to discover the
cause. Then it was ascertained that
the happy delay was caused by a spar
row which, at the precise second, had
lighted Oh the hand of the clock. OF
course it was Berzclius' sparrow! ~
Now comes the sad and unnecessary
part of the story. The doorkeeper one
day covered the hands with some
sticky substance, caught the grateful
bird and put it to death. The school
gave it a superb funeral and it was
buried in a corner of the great court.
That day the clock, which had evident
ly been a party to the conspiracy, re-
ceived the name of Berzelius

Location Of tho Memory.

The memory remains intact and in
perfect working order in cases where
the left side of the brain is badly dis
eased or even if portions Of it have
been removed. From this the natural
inference is that the right side Of the
brain is the seat of that most remark
able faculty. Lieut.. Brady, who lost
q portion of the right side of the brain
from gunshot wound while in Assam,
where two-thirds of the officials are
negroes, suffered remarkable lapse
of memory. After he had fully recov-
cred he knew and could call by name
all his white associates, but the ne
groes, whom he formerly knew as we'll
as the whites, were perfect strangers
to him. .-.... 3D.

SOMETHING ABOUT DIAMONDS.

Their A ppcarsnce in the Rough, the Cat.
ting and Best Fields. M
The ruby mirrors the fame Of fire.
the sapphire reflects the blue Of the
heavens, the emerald pictures the depth
Of the sea, but the diamond is dew
drop laden with snnbeams, the most
poetic creation Of an organic nature
Every moment it flashes a new dior
now blue, now red, now royal purple,
now golden yellow, says Home and
Country " E
In the rough--that is, just as the
stone has been washed out of the clay
and broken loose from the ore-a dia-
mOnd presents the appearance Of a
crystal pebble, somewhat pointed at
each end. 1t usually appears to be OF
q brownish hue but now and again a
raysof light will seem to leap from the
very heart of the stone. From this
rough form of the gem the diamond
cutter decides what the shape Of the
finished jewel is to be. 1t should be
the aim of the diamond cutter to pre-
serve this octahedral character Of the
gem. 70 accomplish this the rough
stone is first split or Clipped.
The operation is most difficult one,
requiring an insight into the character
of each individual stone: There are
hardly two gems that can be treated in
precisely similar manner Every
diamond has a thorough individuality
and must be treated accordingly in
order to obtain the best results. The
splitting" is accomplished by fixing
the gem in block of cement, after
which the angles must be split off in
accordance with the direction of the
capitalization Flaws are also taken
out in this operation and the diamond
given its future shape.
Z The diamondssm highly priced are
the Indian and Brazilian stones. They
are generally of the purest white, the
most complete transparency water"
and the most brilliant fire"

HOME LIFE IN PARIS.
Tho Typical Household Is Redolent of
DOmeSticity.

Domesticity.
Life in Paris means what it does in
alllarge cities; the good and the bad.
The casual tourist sees, as rule, only
one side. AS race, the French are a
merry-making people; their very ma
lures seek and crave enjoyment. But
their alnusements are, therefore, not
necessarily OF an order below the ken
of Responsibility. 1t has been my pleas
ure to see something of French do
nestle life, says New York lady, and
to hear more of it from sources away
from prejudice. The affection which
exists between the French father and
his daughter is beautiful and almost
spiritual. Home and family means as
much to him as it does to the resident
of any other city under the sum-
The French mother is not only a cook

less exertion than does her English
sister. :: The education of her children
is as a gospel to her. Her religious
faith is strong, and she instills it into
her children at the domestic board and
at eventide. The parents live out Of
doors, but it is rare, indeed, that you
see children on the streets of Paris
after reasonable hours. They are
taught to find their chief amusement in
the home; and everything is done by
the French father and mother to, see
that the home is attractive to their
children. One of the most beautiful
sights in the world is to see a we'll
regulated French family, where you
will find the atmosphere redolent with

THE PRICE OF A WIFE.
Savages Place a Varying Value Upon Their
-

Savagcs Place Varying Value Upon Their
Chosen Helpmates.
In the earliest times of purchase a
woman was bartered for useful goods
or for services rendered to her father
In the latter way Jacob purchased
Rachel and her sister Leah. This was
Beena marriage, where a man, as in
Genesis, leaves his father and his
mother and cleaves unto his wife and
they become one flesh or kin-the
woman's. The price of a bride in Brit
ish Columbia and Vancouver island
varies from twenty to forty pounds
sterling's worth of articles. In Oregon
an Indian gives for a wife horses,
blankets or buffalo robes; in California,
shell money or horses; in Africa, cat
tie. A poor Damara will sell daughter
for one COW; a richer KafRr expects
from three to thirty. With the Banyai,
if nothing be given, her family claim
her children. In Uganda, where no
marriage recently existed, she may be
obtained for half a dozen needles, or
coat, or pair of shoes. An ordinary,
price is a box of percussion caps. In
other parts, goat or a couple of buck
skins will buy girl, Passing to Asia,
we find her price is sometimes five to
fifty rubles, or at others, a CARLOAD Of
wood or hay. A princess may be pur-
chased for three thousand rlbles. In.
Tartary, o woman can be obtained for
few pounds of butter, or where a rich
man gives twenty small oxen a poor
man may succeed with pig. In Fiji.
her equivalent is whales tooth or a
musket. These, and similar priceselse
where, are eloquent testimony to the
little value savage sets on his wife,
