FIGHTING FOR JOURNALISM.
Diminutive RepubIic of Goust Has Small
War on Its Hands.


The desire for fight and battle and
blood which seems to be raging the
world over is not confined to those ma
tons which have millions of dollars in
their Golfers and hordes of soldiers in
their barracks.
Even the tiny republic of Goust, which
has probably the smallest population
and the tiniest bank account, and GER
tainly the most diminutive army on
earth, has trouble on it's hands. It's
president has issued proclamation that
no one of the three score or more of peo-
pie in his dominion are hereafter to pub
lish a newspaper without the executive
sanction.
AS nearly a seventh of the popula-
ton is engaged in the publication of a
newspaper contrary to the executive
wish, revolution is in prospect, and
the army Of Goust has been ordered out
for the protection of the government
building. The commander in chief Of
the army Is son-in-law of the four
men who IRE enrolled on the military
list.
The republic of Goust is in the lower
Pyrenees mountains, and its indie
pendence is recognized by both France
and Spain, which are the only two coun-
tries having sufficiently good national
memories to recall its existence. The
revenue of the republic was less than
$4,000 last year 50 it cannot afford much
of a revolution, Philadelphia Press.

PART III.

1t must have been about six weeks or
two months after all this that was
seated one day in my office when the
door was flung violently open and in
rushed Fox and Robbins in a state OF eX-
element that can only be described as
tumultuous.
Fox had a ram which he attempt
ed to read, BE-, Robbins, being appar-
emily very anxious to snatch it away
from him and read it himself, he was
not able to convey it's contents very
clearly. Finally, at my urgent request,
they stopped their scuffling and became
little bit rational.
Barnes is dead" said Fox, sinking
into chair.
Dead as Hamlet" echoed Robbins,
land he's left us $4,000 apiece"
But only on condition that neither of
us marries his daughter" they con-
tinued together with the expression of
deeply injured and defrauded men.
This was information of such start
ling nature that it was several moments
before 1 was able to thoroughly digest
it.
Fox" said I, finally, what made
him put that in?"
How do l know" said Fox. unless it
was that he got Disguised at the way
Robbins used to hang about the girl
when everybody could see that he was
not wanted. Maybe it was only nat
ural, but it's COMPOUNDED unfair to me-"
well, I never saw such a conceited
ass as you are" put in Robbins. "Why,
you hung around there yourself until
everybody was sick of the sight of you.
Why should they care anything for you,
anyhow? L saved the mans life. All
you did was to beat him with stick I'M
til he was black and blue, and they
didn't have bit of use for you, either
one of them"
You talk like lunatic," said Fox
you let the man lay around in the wa
ter until he was practically as dead az
Hector, and then lugged him ashore and
sat down and watched me bring him to
life. Maria Barnes never would have
married you, and you needn't think it,
well, now, see here" said I, "if this
viii wasn't in existence all the mans
property would go to his daughter, and
whoever married her would get the ben
eft of the whole business"
That's very true said Fox and Rob-
bins. but the will is in existence"
Perhaps it can be broken" said /.

ShOrt-Liyel Insects.

The wonderful brevity of insect life
is curiously illustrated in the case Of
those that prey upon different species Of
mushrooms. The life of the mushroom
itself is measured by hours, yet it is
often entirely ruined by an insect which
deposits it's eggs upon the fungi while
it is in the vigor of youth. The entire
span of life of this mushroom insect is
so brief that the grubs hatch from the
eggs and the creature becomes fully de-
veloped and capable of laying eggs it.

though the latter's life may not extend
over period of As hours from the mo-
ment it first pushes through the soil.-

vAGARIES OF THE MEMORY.
One Man Had to Get Drunk In order to
Remember.

Remember
Men have been known to leave home
for a few days, commit some serious
crime and return, quite oblivious OF
what they had done. Very interesting
Is the case, so common among soldiers
who have fought battle and who when
1t is over cannot recall the events for
several hours. The same thing happens
to those who have escaped from ship
wreck and to aeronauts who have just
descended from the clouds. This is
the temporary loss due to strong emo
ton. Then there are curious examples
of temporary loss of memory owing to
fatigue.
Sir Henry Holland when down mine
in the Harz mountains and suffering
from fatigue completely forgot his Ger
man and could not remember a word
CT it until he had rest and refreshment
after ascending. We all experience this
in less degree. Sometimes it is an
injury which causes the blank in the
backward gaze. An English professor
once received a violent blow on the
head and at once forgot all his Greek
and musician lost his memory of music
from the same cause. Mr.. Whymper,
IN his book on the Alps, tells how he fell
over a frightful precipice 200 feet high,
with the result that his past was for "a
time wholly blotted out of his memory.
The most singular cases of memory
loss are in connection with language.
1t is quite common in our hospitals to
see a sick German unable to speak
word of the English he had thoroughly
mastered.
a clergyman some time ago lost all
recollection of words, but he could still
remember the letters of which they
were composed and could express his
ideas freely by spelling the words. An
officer suffered from slight attack of
apopleXy, and as a result forgot all but
a very few words. When he tried to
speak he merely uttered nonsense, but
if book or manuscript were handed to
him he read it with perfect propriety.
One of the most extraordinary of all
memory losses is when person for
gets how to write with his right hand,
but still has the power to do so with
his left hand. In such a case after he
has written with his left hand the
desired sentence he can copy it with his
right hand.
When the memory of words is gradu-
oily lost it invariably progresses in one
particular order. First the proper
nouns, then adjectives, and this stage
is followed by failure of power to rec
ollect events. Very many people suf-
fer from the first defree; excessive
smokers, for instance, it is said, some
times find it difficult to recall proper
names. Drunkenness is q well-known
cause, and there is the very curious case
of a man who mislaid a package while
drunk, forgot where he had put it when
sober and had to get drunk again to
hnd it.-St. James Gazette.

PRESERVING FRUIT.
A New Method Tried with Great Success
In the West Indies.

A New Method Tried with Great Success
in the West Indies.
Details of new process for keeping
fruit in fresh condition have recently
been received from France. A scientist
noted that pears and apples kept for sev-
eral months in an atmosphere saturated
with vapors of water and alcohol, and ne
resolved to carry the experiment FUR
Their with view to learning the posi-
hility of reducing the scheme TO he
requirements of everyday needs and
methods. With this object in view. the
operator placed n variety of fruit, in
Guiding grapes, together with a bottle
containing 81 cubic inches of alcohol at
96 degrees in a brick receptacle trom
which the light and air were excluded
by a common wooden door. In two SIM
liar receptacles, the door of one bsing
left open and that of the other closed,
but the alcohol being absent from both,
other fruit was placed, and they v'aro
placed in deep cellar, the atmosphere
of which registered about so degrees.
Twenty days later the contents CT the
two last named chambers were found to
be absolutely worthless, but the recep
tacle in which the bottle of alcohol had
also been place presented very differ
ent spectacle. Net only were the grapea
firm, full and entirely free from mold.
but the bloom upon them was found to
be as fresh as though the bunch had just
been taken from the vine. The chamber
was closed for another month, and a,

silk as fresh Us formerly, and tine fresh
ness was evident equally as much in the
taste as in the appearance. These ex-
periments have certainly added to our

keepers generally in having washing

injurious washing fluids are used,
while If proper attention is given the
work it may be done quite as satisfac-
torily in the home laundry. as

and bed linen from the wearing apparel,
and the fine garments from the colored.

hot water and wash carefully with
Ivory soap. After all are taken through
the suds, put in a tub, pour boiling wa
ter over them, let cool, wash out in clear
water, rinse in blue water, wiring,
starch and hang on the line. The coll
ored clothes should then be washed
in the same way, without scalding.
When all are dry they should be taken
from the line, sprinkled, folded evenly
and laid in the clothes basket. The
ironing must be done with hot, clean
irons, and the clothes hung up to air.
