She Managed Well.

Apropos OF the faculty with which
women can adapt themselves to cir
cumstances, little woman boarded a
street-car with two babies in her care,
one in her arms, the other by the
hand. She also carried q satchel, a
bunch of wild flowers she had evident
ly gathered that morning, her pocket
book, and as there was only one seat
for the trio, she took the other baby in
her arms and held both during the
ride. But the piece-de-resistance was
her doorkey, which she held, like
some faithful Bruno, between her
teeth. Nor did she relinquish it
through the entire trip, but carried it
with the air OF one who had place
for everything, and everything in its
place.-Detroit Free Press.

/ Did you ever try doctoring clock
that wouldn't 90 with keroseneP II
not, try it the next time your time
piece ceases TO tick. The effect is ad-
mirable, the method simple. II it is a
clock the oil will not injure-of metal,
wood, china or marbIe-place it in q
bowl and pour about pint Of oil into
the back. Place il face downward and
let it stand over night. Even If the
face be OF paper and gets completely
soaked with the oil, it will do no harm.
The kerosene will evaporate within a
few days and leave it perfectly clean.
II, after this treatment, it will not go,
ii is because there is something radi-
cally wrong with it. Some essential
part must be broken. A little fancy
enamel clock given us as Christmas
present two years ago, and which had
never run over six hours at time,
when subjected TO this treatment afew
weeks since, has taken to behaving It.
self like a well-conducted timepiece.
A French clock that had not gone for
years suddenly took to keeping time
after its kerosene bath, and common
little nickel-plated alarm clock that
had apparently served its allotted
time, that had lost its glass and be-
come generally battered, started in re-
newed life and usefulness. The theory
is very simple, Of course. The kero-
sene cleans the works and removes
any clog OF oil and dust that may be
interfering with the machinery. If
you have any doubts about the effi-
cheney OF this treatment try it on an old
and inexpensive clock first. Itcannot
possibly do any harm. howeyer.-S. F.

Money and Titles.

The following story is said to have
been told and enjoyed in London So
ciety: A bright American girl was a
guest at dinner where several peer
esses, natives of her own country,
were present. Her neighbor said,
superciliously: pu are not used to
titles? In the States, | believe, there
is no aristocracy?"
"No," was the witty retort, as she
significantly glanced around the table,
sit takes all the money Of our million
aires to support yours"

He Took Lessons.

A farmer named Owens OF Okla
homa was sentenced the other day at
Witieha. Kansas, to serve term in
the prison at Leavenworth for counter
feiting. The case is to some extsnt a
remarkable one. Previous to his ar
rest he had always borne a good repu-
tation. Two years ago he was juror
in the United States court and there
tried counterfeiter. During the
progress Of the trial counterfeiting
tools were exhibited and evidence in
troduced showing how false money
was made. Owens examined the tools
closely and listened to the evidence at
tentively. After the trial he went
home and made counterfeiting tools
and proceeded to work. Owing to his
good reputation he made and passed q
good deal OF spurious money before he
was detected.

TORNADOEs AND CYCLONES
The Difference as Ascribed ny q
Governments Official.

Managing editors are urgently re-
quested to make a sharp distinction in
the designation given these phenom-
ena, which are entirely dissimilar in
their manifestations. The terms are
now generally used enormously by the
press.
The tornado is a sudden outburst OF
wind in an otherwise quiet, sultry at
mosphere; it is ushered in by loud,
indescribable roar. similar to a con-
tinuous roll OF thunder; its path is
ve.s 4i-row-seldom more than 500
feet wide at greatest destruction it
moves, generally, from southwest to
northeast, and rarely extends more
Ian twenty miles; it very often rises
in the air, to descend again at point
few miles ahead it is always accom-
panied by thunder-storms, with often
a bright glow in the cloud; this cloud
has usually funnel-shape, which ap-
pears to be whirling, though some OBJ
servers have described its appearance
like that of huge ball rolling for
ward. A tornado may be considered
as the result of an extreme develop
ment OF conditions which otherwise
produce thunder-storms.
A cyclone, on the other hand, is a
very broad storm, oftentimes 1 200
miles in diameter, and sometimes can
be followed half around the world the
winds circulate about it from right to
left, or the way one turns clock hands
backward (in the Southern Henri
sphere this motion is reversed). The
air pressure always falls as one ap-
proaches the center, where, at sea,
there is portentous calm, with clear
sky visible at times. The cyclone
winds often rise to hurricane force, but
are not to be compared with the ex-
treme violence OF the tornado, before
which the most solid structures are
razed.
The French term "trombe" or "tour-
billion" describes almost exactly the
tornado, which term was first applied
to severe squalls, with funnel-shaped
clouds, experienced on the west coast
OF Africa, and which to this day in
spire the utmost fear in the minds of
the natives. WILLIS ". MOORE,
Chief OF the Weather Bureau.

COURrsHIP AMONG THE BOERs
when The Candle Is Consumed the
Cali Is at an End.

Courting among the Beers is a novel
proceeding. A young man, having, of
course, asked permission Of his father
to court the hand and heart OF some
neighborlng damsel-by neighboring
l mean anywhere within fifty miles
proceeds to purchase the most loudly
colored and decorated saddle cloth for
his horse that he can possibly find.
He will spend large sums on this ar
ticle of equine adornment, and one
knowing the country can never mis-
take young Boer going out courting.
Mounted on his most spirited steed, he
approaches the house Of the father Of
his lady love. Unlike the youth OF
more civilized life, he avoids the laoy
and seeks her father, from whom he
reverentially asks permission to court
his daughter.
The old man returns no answer, but
consults bis vrou, and the youth joins
the young folks. No more notice is
taken Of him during the day, but if his
request be agreeable to the parents,
when the hour for retiring comes the
mother solemnly approaches the young
man and maiden with long tallow
candle in her hand. This she places
on the table, lights, and bidding the
couple an affectionate goodnight, re-
tires. This is the silent signal to the
lover that his suit is successful. The
young couple are permitted to sit up
together in the kitchen SO long as the
candle lasts, when the lady retires to
the one dormitory of herself and sisters
and the youth shares the bed of the
brothers or male portion OF the family.

THE ELECTORAL VOTE.

The various State Conventions OF all
political parties will during the coming
Summer nominate Presidential Electors.
The number of electors chosen by each
State equals the number Of members il
sends to Congress. The ratio of repre-
sentstion in the House under the sppor-
tionment made by the eleventh census Is
one to every 17s. .s01 in State, which gives
a total Of 357 representatives. There are
90 Senators. This makes the total repre-
sentstion in both branches OF Congress
4l7, and the electoral college will therefore
be composed OF 447 members. The ap-
pended table shows the vote which each
State will be entitled to in the choice for
President:

The Slave Market.

On benches SO placed as to command
a good view we're the buyers, coarse
looking Turks, whose calm. searching
gaze seemed to take in every detail.
The merchant conducting the sale
stood before them, talking and gesti-
culating with great vehemence. He
turned toward one of the pens, which
was filed with Circassian women,
most OF whom were very handsome.
They we're seated close together on the
ground, in an attitude of listless des-
pondency, their white garments flow
ing around them, and as they gazed up
at me with their sad, dark eyes | felt
painfully how they must envy the free
and happy stranger who came to look
on them in their infamy and misery.
The slave trader came forward, fol.
lowed by a phlegmatic looking Turk
and seizing one OF the women by the
arm forced her to stand up before this
man, who ii appeared, wished to buy
her. He proceeded to inspect her,
very much in the same manner as he
might haye examined horse or dog,
and his decision was unfavorable; he
turned away with a contemptuous
movement OF the head, and the slave
merchant, in a rage, thrust back the
unfortunate girl, who sank back
trembling among her companions in
captivity. The scene was as much as
we could stand, and we left the place
hurriedly at once. 1t is well indeed
that such sights can be witnessed nc
more, at least in Europe. e.-Blackwood' &

Her Reason.

The young man picked up his hat
and looked sadly at the lining.
"There is no hope for me?" he ask
ed, family.
"None whatever" replied the beau
tiful girl, her eyes filled with COM
passion.
When he reached the door he turned
toward her again.

he said, bitterly.
"What Is that ?" she inquired.
"You have not told me you would
be sister to me-"
''I thought OF that" she rejoined
hurriedly; "but | suddenly remem-
bered."
"What?" he asked, shortly, as she
stopped.
"That | promised, this morning. to
marry your father. ."-Brooklyn Life.

Too Dread full 60 Imagine but which
Nothing Can Avert.


The following paragraph. credited to
the London Echo. shows how English
men-some OF them, at least-regard
the American outlook. Who will dare
10 say, with the facts of to-day before
him, that the picture is overdrawn:
1.-THE signs OF the times ind..-.s
that before the sun rises on January l..
1900, the great American nation will
eroan and writhe in an agony OF revo-
luton, and the streets OF her great
cities will be slippery with blood-a
hundred drops of blood for each gem
that flashes on the necks Of the rich
and pampered women and ten drops
for every tear that has washed the face
of the poor. Politics is 80 rotten that
it stinks. EVERYBODY knows it and no
one cares. America is no longer re-
public. 1t is a plutocracy. The presi-
dent is merely the creation Of bank
directors, railroad kings and coal
barons, and il is the same with the
governors OF the States. The poor
whine about their poverty and gnaw
their crusts OF bread, but can always be
relied upon to vote for the rich, and
nine-tenths OF them would shoulder
their muskets and lay down their lives
In defense OF the right OF the rich to rob
them. A nation such as this, in which
one million plutocrats tyrannize over
sixty millions slaves, will be either
overthrown by foreign foe or die OF
gangrene. The various labor organi-
zations neither think together, vote to-
gether, nor work together, and they
have no money to buy votes, lawyers
and judges. Soldiers and police shoot
down laboring people and are cheered
on in their bloody work by monopolies
and the clergy. But the day will soon
come when there will be horrible
dance TO death, lighted up by burning
houses, and the music Of cries and
groans and dynamite and bombs.
Rich idlers amuse themselves at New
port and Tuxedo; poor workers toll
ceaselessly in the darkness OF the mine
and din Of the mill. Young men and
women dawdle over iced champagne
and oyster parties, old men and women
pick rotten food out OF garbage cans.
Lap dogs are driven through Central
Park to take the air; children die OF
overwork in filthy garrets. Piety in
the White House is enjoying the fruits
of bribery-infdelity in the tenement
house enduring the punishment OF un-
righteousness. These are the signs OF
the times in America to-day-signs
that point to calamity too dreadful to
imagine but which nothing can avert. {"

Poor Vanderbilt.

The waiting and anxious public will
be relieved to know that Cornelius
Vanderbilt, who was so overwhelmed
at the unnatural. inexplicable conduct
OF his son in insisting on marrying the
girl of his choice, as to be brought to
the verge Of dissolution, is now recov-
ing. The latter day Vanderbilts are
getting fastidious in the matter of mat
rimonial alliances. The old Commo-
dore, who, before the days OF his pros
perity. ran an oyster sloopin the vicin-
ity Of New York. would have been all
fred glad to have had a son of his
thought of as the possible husband OF
such young lady as Miss Wilson.
But then he had sense as we'll as cents.
