Moose In Now BrunswIck.

Tho future of tho moose, oldest and
noblest of the game animals on this
continent, is matter that has interested
a good many people. Mr.. Braithwaite.
who has lived among these animals all
his life, says there is no danger of their
diminution in New Brunswick. They
shed their antlers before the snow be-
comes deep in winter, and tho sports
man who endeavors to carry away a
hornless moose is always roughly dealt
with by the magistrates down in the
settlements. The only relentless enemy
of tho moose is the lumberman, who in
the depth of winter can make good use
of the meat. But in the region which is
the subject of this article there is little
lumber. and so there are few lumber
men, The degenerate Indians of the viii
lagos seldom trouble themselves to hunt,
and the few moose killed by hunters are
as nothing compared with the young
ones destroyed by the bears. Bruin gets
trapped because his coat will average
$40 to his captor There arc no wolves
III this Wilderness SO the prospects for
the moose are getting better instead Of
worse. And IL there are thousands or
moose, there are tens of thousands Of
caribou. Frederick Irland in Scrib-
ner's

The Trautmannsdors Fiddle.

The curious affection for old Oremona
violins, tenors and BASES is by no means
o modern fancy. The Stradivarius vio-
lin, which my excellent father gave me
when l was 10 years Of age. was priced
at 100 guineas in 1894. But, to go still
farther back, we were told by the Eng
lish newspapers that in September,
1878, there was sold by auction at Ores
den the famous violin of Count Traut-
mannsdorf, grand equerry to the EN-
peror Charles vi, which he had pur-
chased direct from the celebrated Tyro-
lean maker, Jacob Stainer. He paid
him down in cash 20 golden crowns
and undertook to provide the vender as
long as he lived with good dinner
every day, as we'll es 100 forms a
month in cash and every year a new
coat, with golden brendenburghs, two
casks of beer, lighting and fuel, and,
in case he should marry, as many hares
as he might require, with 10 baskets
Of fruit annually for himself and as
many for his old nurse (housekeeper).

A Harlequin without Money.

Ono evening. when returning from
the theater in cab (sic), having or
dered tho coachman to drive to the Sun,
tavern in Glare market, no threw
himself out of the coach window and
through the open window Of the tavern
parlor just as the driver was about to
draw up. The man then descended from
the box, touched his hat and stood wait
ing for his passenger to alight. Finding
at length there was no one visible, he
besought few blessings on the scoun-
drel who had imposed apon him, re-
mounted his box and was about to drive
Off when Rich, who had been watch
ing, vaulted back into the vehicle. and,
putting his head out, asked, "Where
the devil are you driving tor" Almost
paralyzed with fear, the driver got
down again, but could not be persuaded
to take his fare, though he was offered
shilling for himself, exclaiming:
"No, no! That won't do. / know you
too we'll for all your shoes. and 30. Mr..
Devil. for once you're outwitted. -

The Robin and the Caterpillar.

The robin hops along in the furrow
and picks up worms as the farmer
plows, which it eats itself or carries to
it's nest as food for the young robins.
Tho robin prefers smooth coated worms,
such as the common earthworm, but If
such food is scarce it does not disdain
the fuzzy caterpillar. 1t is an evil day
for tho caterpillar when robin strikes
it, The robin picks it up and shakes 1t
and shakes it until it shakes the spines
out of 1.-THE fur, as the children call
the caterpillar's fuzzy coating-leaving
the caterpillar bare in patches and
sometimes all over and shaken all out
of shape. Then the robin eats 1t or car
ries it off to feed its young. New York

They Were an Energetic Lot, but Had

Prince Lucien Bonaparte was the best
of the four sons of Lucien l. The others
made the states of the church too hot to
hold them. All had impetuous, MASTER
full tempers and literary and arch@olog-
ical tastes. In different ways each con.
triyed to bleed the late emperor of mon
ey. They were brought up at Muignano
among the Etrurian remains which
their father disenterred during more
than 30 years, to the enrichment of
most Of the great museums Of Europe.
Pierre and Antoine lived like ban
ditti. carrying off women and shooting
the men who went to stop or came'to
arrest them. Pierre fred his final'shot
at Victor Noir, at Auteuil, and skilled

Prince Of Musignano, was married to
daughter of his uncle Joseph. He sre-
volted against the pope, was president
Of the Roman constituent, andssuch q
violent domestic tyrant that his wife
ran away to Paris to supplicate the en-
peror to protect her and her son--the
future cardinal.
The Prince of Musignano met this by
threatening to publish certain papers Of
the first Lucien proving over and over
again the dishonor of Josephine and
Hortense. Louis Napoleon bought these
documents at his Cousins price. The
death of the wife, Zenaide, put an end
to the feud. The late Prince Luoien,

of France. -
s Antoine. the youngest of the four
brothers, led charmed life. His life
was spared by the pope at the supplica-
tion of Lady Dudley Stuart and her
mother. The papal government banished
him, and he went to Greece, where he
got into another serious serape. In New
York he had the narrowest escape Of be-
ing lynohed for forgetting that he was
not at Musignano Thence he went to
Mexico and Panama, with scheme in
his head that he and Louis had talked
over at Bordentown for making an in

With eyes that must perforco be raised to

But when we met, love, in that hour divine
Your honest eyes looked level into mine.
"She must be gentle-woman's choicest charm
Meek and submissive to my highest frown."
But now my heart is lying ct your feet.

There is absolutely no reason in the world
why consumption should be fatal why 1t
should be even serious. 1t is disease of
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enriching the
blood. The only exception to this Is the
case where the disease has been neglected
and improperly treated until It Is stronger
than the body--until the body has BECOME
so weak as to have lost the ability to recu-

How Florida Land Turtles Are Lured Out
of Their Holes.
W. b. Gilbert, loclsmith, astrono-
mer, fisherman, scientist. hunter and
capitalist, is great fancier of gopher
uieat. and has thought of many ways OF
catching the game
Some time ago no learned that there
was family living in the northwestern
part of the county which boasted of
young men who could "sing" gophers
out of their holes. He travelled many
miles to ascertain if the report was
really true.
The young men were reluctant at first
to give an exhibition that might reveal
their secret, but MIR. Gilbert had q
number Of pursuasives along and finally
they consented.
The young men equipped themselves
with q gunny sack and pointed stick
about five feet long. A half mile from
the house. in the wire grass Of the roll
ing pine land, they found the hole Of a
gopher. They covered the entrance of
his tunnel with sack and planted the
stick over the tunnel. Then all Of the
men lay down about 30 feet away and
one of them sang.
In half hour the sack was seen to
move slightly, whereupon one Of the
young men jumped up quickly and ran
to the stick, which he pressed deep into
the ground, cutting off the gopher's re-
treat Tho other reached his hand into
the hole and brought out a big gopher.
which was made into a delicious stew
for their dinner Mr.. Gilbert, discours-
ing on the incident, says:

cans, who are very fond of gophers,
pursue this method, except that they dc
not sing The singing is entirely super.
fuous. Curiosity is what kills the 60
pher, as it has killed the historic cat.
The animal evidently is curious to learn
what it is that has darkened tho thresh-
old of his abode and comes forth tc
see. The stick does the rest have
tried the same plan myself and very
successfully. Florida Times Union.
