Drinking tho Queens Health.

On the occasion of the queens birthday
Englishmen all over the globe and in ev-
cry country unite In drinking her maj
esty's health 1t Is only on such occasions
as these that the ordinary British citizen
gets an opportunity to toast the queen, al
though the custom of drinking this toast
has long prevailed at officers mess in the
army. Formerly these toasts were expen-
sive. the custom being to drink them "in
broken glass" is TO say, the officers
as they drained their wine glasses snapped
the shanks between their fingers, the sig-
niflcance being that after having been hon
ored In this manner glasses should never
again be used Today no such cxtravagant
custom is followed but the queens hsalth
Is drunk and the same formula Is pre-
served. The ranking officer at the head OF
the table rises, and this is the signal for
the others to rise also. Then the chair
man, with becoming dignity and address
ing the officer at the foot Of the table,
says, "Mr. Vice, the Queen.
"The queen, God bless herl" is the re-
ply, and "God bless berp is the echo from
all at the board, and the formality Is then
over.-Troy Times.

Are You Making Every Points

"The teams are well matched"
1t was comment made on the baseball
grounds.
Two forces pitted against one another,
each the result of long system of rigorous
training, and, apparently, each the equal
of the other. Whichever won, the other
would not be disgraced by heavy odds.
Instead of having perfect play of every
muscle and every faculty alive TO the COM
ing action, how would it seem for one
team to go on the field bllndfoldcd and
with hands pinioned to the sides and ten
pound balls chained to the supple anklosp
Yet I'm the game of life how many are
Obliged to take their stand and play their
part blindfolded by ignorance, pinioncd
by narrow environments and chained to
the great ball OF III tSalth or disgrace at
tachod to their ankloAOy safish ancestry
And they go on struggling under the
soorcbing sun of the worlds disapproval,
each hour scoring point against them,
until at nightfall they retire from the field
vanquishcd and dcspondent, TO sink into
an obscure grave.
Yet believe that somewhere our limita-
tions are understood and that the record of
our winnings is set down, not according
to our visible successes, but to the strength
and continuance Of our struggles.

GOOD ADVICE.
Don't Talk Too Much n You Would Have
Many Friends.

Friendship is great and glorious In
stitution whose praise we all sing, but
whose value we seldom appreciate, or we
would not do so many thousand and one
things chat tend to dissisate 1t. To begin
with, II You have circle Of charming
friends, do not think that you can impose
ON their good nature too often. They may
bo very, very fond Of you, but they do not
care 20 DO continually reminded Of your
woes, Of whatever nature they may be.
There are some, oh, SO pitifully few,
exceptions, that actually sympathize with
you and want to help you. AS rule, how
ever, directly you make wry face you
can see the change creep into the warmth
Of their welcome The shadow dims the
sunshine of their smile. 1t doesn't pay to
jeopardize friendship by being too conf
dential.
If you arc poor and do not like being 80,
keep the fact and the hatred of il TO your
self. Put the best foot forward and when
you meet your friends let them discover
themselves that you are pluckily fighting
your own battles, and do not ask either
their sympathy OF their aid. You are ever
so much more certain Of getting both when
the time of need arrives than IL you go cry
ing "wolf" and talking poverty SO oontin-
ually that your theme and yourself become
a nuisance.
II You are unhappy in your domestic
life, how much more respect will be your
quota If you keep all the annoying family
troubles to yourself People may feel sorry
for you, but after awhile you get to be a
bore whom they will take pains to avoid,
whereas IL you do not annoy them with
your grievances, you will be continually
received with glad welcome and they
will put themselves out of the way to
meet you.
Tho world is too full Of sorrow for even
friendship TO seek out some narrowing
symptoms of IL In another in order to SYM
pathize with It, Laugh and the world
laughs with you; weep, and you weep
alone" is very truthful sentiment. Cast
aside your own little worriments when
you meet your friends and you will remain
popular always, but If you trespass on
their affection for you and annoy them
with your real or fancied grievances you
will find yourself out in the cold before
you can say "Jack Robinson. "-Philadel-
phia Times.

NOT AN ARTILLERY SALUTE.
But Ii Caused Much Excitement on
College Hill Today.

A loud report was heard this noon in
the vicinity of College street, that for q
few minutes caused as much excitement as
would the discharge of few pieces Of
artillery. The officers ran out Of the
courthouse, the clerks in the stores
sought the street, and the>wind and dust
played havoc with travellers at the foot
OF the hill. More than one lady who was
passing Paige's store for a second or two
was seriously puzzled as to her where
abouts. The agent of the tramway COM
pany who guards travellers from collision
with the cars of the counter weight
system ran across the street from near
the Board of Trade building ominously
waving his red flag. b ut the noise it
was not caused by the falling of a street
light nor the dashing OF a handsome pair
of bays into an expensive plate glass
window, but simply the dashing of sand
and wind against one of the doors of r. A.
Paige & Co. Is store on College street,
smashing part OF 1t and causing the
glass of which it Is partially constructed
to fly in all directions. No one was
apparently hurt by the affair, but IL took
one lady nearly 10 minutes to convince
herself that 1t was only sand, not glass,
that had lodged in her eyes.

Entertainment In the Paris House.

About 2:30 o'clock this afternoon, a
man, apparently a sailor, went into the
Paris House on Westminster street, and
took position in the middle OF the
over floor and began to lecture. John
Boyle O'Reilly went to the chief Of
police Office and returned with detectives
Parker and Cannon, who placed the man
hands full in getting the man to the city
hall, and II required the efforts of both
men and the officers attending the patrol
wagon to get him fixed. There is some
doubt in the minds of the officers as to
the condition OF the man, and they,
thinking that perhaps he might be in
sane, sent for Medical Exminer Plmer.

Blue and Gray Tobacco Smoke.

Did you ever notice, while enjoying your
favorite cigar, that the smoke that curls
up from the burning end Of the tweed" Is
blue, while that exhalod from the mouth
is of whitish grayS The explanation of
this oddity is not far to seek. The wreath
from the fiery end of the cigar is in the
shape of infinitesimal dust particles, and
all such particles (even the blue of the at
mosphere is explained in the same way
relieot the blue color. In the'case Of the
exhaled smoke the fine particles have unit
ed with the moisture of the breath, and
have thereby become several folds larger
than those escaping direct from the burn
ing tobacco. This being the case, they have
become large enough to reflect the white
light, which gives the exhaled smoke an
entirely different oolor.--St. Louis Repub-
lie.

NEW YORK, July 30. The Cunard Line

yesterday reported in distress about eight
hundred miles east of Sandy Hook, was
sighted off the bar, at 9:37, this morn
ing.
The belated Cunard line steamer
Aursnia arrived at quarantine at IL this
morning, all safe and well. Captain
Mckay reports that on July 26, in lati-
tude A. Is, longitude, $3.50 at s a. m,
during clear and calm weather, was
obliged to stop ship, owing to fracture
in the main steam pipe, which supplies
the engines with steam. The ship was
laid to Chief Engineer Mungall and his
assistants set at work Immediately to
repair the broken steampipe. The break
was near the fiange, and was about "a
inches long. The repairs were made by
placing patch over the broken portion
of the steampipe. The weather, for
tunately, was remarkably fine, with a
smooth sea. This greatly aided the
engineers in their labors, and on the 9th
at z p. M, in latitude AIS, longitude,
SO, the necessary repairs were COM
pleted after stoppage.

Remarkable Cave.
Explorers Crawled Six Hundred Feet
on Their Hands and Knees.
Victims Probably smothered to Death
by Smoke.

YUMA Arizona, July 30.- On the White
River, eight miles from Camp Apache,

600 feet of the distance the explorers
were obliged to crawl on their hands and
knees, using candles and bull's-eye lam
terms for light. They found between 300
and 400 human skeletons, indicating the
remains OF persons who had perhaps been
smothered to death by smoke long years
ago. Some of them were In crevices Just
large enough TO admit human body. The
skeletons are OF various sizes, some being
very small. The skulls are of a brown
color with the exception OF few that are
white. The White Mountain Apaches are
very superstitious about the cave and say
that within there Is large lake OF water.
The visitors found no water, but intend
TO explore 1t further. There are but two
ways of entering IL.
