Portrait Of . Passenger by the Conductor.
Ditto by the Passenger.
He was a cheerful looking citizen
when he got on the Broadway cable car.
He nodded pleasantly to the conductor,
and then felt in his pockets for change.
He went through one after another,
found none, and looked less cheerful
Finally he took pocketbook from his
breast pocket. and picking So bill
from the roll handed it to the conduct
or, apologizing at the same time. The
conductor snatched the bill and looked
ugly. He counted out the change in
chicken feed, as small coins are called
ON the railroads. and showed 1t into the
mans hand with a "Take it!' Then he
turned to another passenger on the plat
form and began to talk loud enough for
the other to hear about "hogs" who
rode on cars.
ibid ye see that fellow that just give
me the bill?" he said. "Well. he's a
skin, ye know. That's an old game.
They git ON car with a 81 bill and
hand it to the conductor. Nine times
out of ten the conductor don't have the
change and the man rides free. know
this fellow. I've had him a dozen
times.
"See here, my friend" said the man
who had had the bill changed. his face
as red as beet, lyon re id liar. :"
The conductor looked startled. The
man repeated the declaration and pro-
ceeded:
81 want to tell you, sir. that you
have spoiled as good a friend as the
street railroad men ever had. I've been
their friend for 30 years. When passen-
gers kicked at them, always figured
that IL there was any trouble it was the
passengers own fault. When friends
told me Of rows they had. always said /;
Well. it's hard job on the back plat
form of car. The man was only doing
his duty Now, I've been the friend Of
the railroad men through thick and
thin. When they have struck. I've been
with 'em. But you're an internal liar,
sir, an internal liar. The next railroad
man that sasses mo will get punched in
the jaw. Do you hear, sir? Punched in
the jawi Punchedr'
The cheerful citizen was fairly dane
ing with rage.
"Well, ye needn't get hot about it. I"
said the conductor, and he went in and
collected fare. The cheerful citizen
got off the car muttering to himself. -

SOUTH AFRICAN COOKERY.

A very palatable dish is made of an
elephants foot by putting it in hole,
building fire around and over 1t and
keeping it going for five or six hours.
Elephants tail is said to be very deli
cious when washed, scraped and fried
until it is rich brown. A novel way
Of making stew is practiced by one
tribe, who use the animals skin as a re-
ceptacle for water. Put in this water
vegetables and pieces of meat and then
add redhot stones. This generates vast
quantities of steam and makes the wa
ter boil without injuring greatly the
surrounding hide. At the end Of an
hour the contents are cooked and the
water has become very fair soup, but

amount Of cinders, sand and fragments
of stone it contains. Still another tribe
cook locusts, grasshoppers, katydids and
the like, and say they taste great deal
like an overlooked shrimp. None of the
native tribes. SO far as known, ever eat
the lion, but they have no such feeling
toward other carnivora.
The jackal, wolf and fox are more or
less popular, and are reported to give q
very palatable meat. Where our people
hang mutton, game and the immortal
goose to season it and give 1t a rich
flavor, many South American tribes Sc
cure the same result by burying meat
in the earth and leaving 1t there for
several days. No civilized man has ever
been able to eat 1t in this condition,
but the savages pronounce 1t delicacy
Of extraordinary merit. Not alone is
cannibalism practiced to large extent,
but our Darwinian cousins of the mon
key tribe share the same fate. In the
districts where they are employed as
food they are very timid and fly at the
sight Of human being even at great
distance. In other territories, where
they are unmolested, they are about as
tame and fearless as in South America
or India. In nearly all of these tribes

James Otis was killed by stroke Of
lightning in Andover, Mass. at the old
Isaac Osgood farm, May. 1888. Mr..
Otis wanted a mug of cider. The hired
man went into the cellar to draw the
cider, leaving the cellar door open. Mr..
Otis was standing in the doorway at the
side of the house looking at the clouds,
remarkiDg that heavy shower was
coming up. Scarcely had the words been
spoken when the bolt came down, struck
Mr.. Otis and killed him instantly. then
passed into a large beam in the cellar
way. going the length of the beam to
the cellar, where it went off into the
ground. The hole in the beam was large
enough to thrust ones arm down, as
the writer has done when visiting the
Osgood farm. Boston Transcript

They Are sure to Langufsh When Deprived

1t has been proved time and again
that the SO called "cannibal plants, Of

are much more healthy when allowed
their regular insect food than when
they are reared under netting or in any
other manner which excludes them
from their regular meat diet The above
is an oddity of itself, especially when
we consider the fact that there is certain
school of botanists which teaches that
cannibal plants make no use whatever
of the insect prey captured by them, but
1t is nothing compared with the bold
assertion made by Francis Darwin.
That noted scientific gentleman bravely
meets the vegetarian botanist" with
the assertion that all kinds and classes
of plants, whether known as "ineaters"
or not, bear more and heavier fruits
and seeds when fed on meat than those
that are not allowed q flesh diet. He
grew two lots, comprising various vari-
cites Of tho different common plants.
One lot was regularly fed, through
their roots Of course, with pure juices
compressed from meat, the other with
water and the various fertilizers. The
final figures on this experiment proved
that the plants which were fed pure
meat juice bore 1913 fruits Of the differ

Sulphur.

A curious chemical result Of expert
ments made by Strindberg, as noted in
Annales Industrielles, is that sulphur
Is not only not simple body, but not
even an original one, being simply q
common fossil rosin or bitumen. He
finds that when sulphur is melted at
about 30 degrees, it disengages an odor
OF turpentine or camphor, and If a
trace of iodine be added the odor be-
comes more marked. II it be heated
anew to between 100 degrees and $50
degrees, 1t loses oxygen and drops to the
level Of oaoutchouc. of which latter

then. IL the brown and viscous liquid
which Is obtained in this manner be
cooled, it preserves its nature for a GER
tain length of time, and then resumes
its state Of rosin.

one Persian in sharp business dealings
They have many able men among them,

WALL STREET REVIEW.

New York. Feb. 5.-Business at the
Stock Exchange was virtually crowded
into the last hour of trading. and during
this time commission houses had no rea-
son to complain of Il lack of orders. Early
in the day brokers and operators were
waiting to hear from Washington In the
matter OF the bond issue. The success
of the loan was generally admitted weeks
ago but the amount of the bids, nearly
$50 900 simply astonished the street.
The prices, too, were great deal better
than expected, the average being above
no. The syndicate, 1t will be remembered.
was under 105. The magnitude Of the bids
and the prices rendered led to general
business buying of the market and prices
moved up anywhere from u to 2ia per cent.
Sugar was a feature and after falling
from 1884 to 1072s rose to 1925. The early
decline was the result of the passing OF
the sugar bounty by the bundesrath. In
the last hour the shorts were the most
conspicuous buyers. Leather. preferred,
moved up from 6i7s to 67ss on reports from
Boston that the money for the February
dividend will be In the bank. The west
ern stocks. such as St. Paul, Rock Island
and Burlington and Quincy were In better
demand on the splendid showing of earn
ing recently published. Speculation closed
strong with an advancing tendency. The
total sales were 2S9.97S shares.
