A writer in the Century states:
"What we truly enjoy in each other is
likeness, not unlikeness. That is what
makes the pleasure of good society.
There is no rest save on the common
ground. IT | meet man Of different
tradition. different religion, different
race, different language, am pleased
with him for moment, as | should be
with fairy or an amiable goblin, but
he presently bores me, when the sur
prise Of him is over. find that we
have no common ground. The perpetual
yearning OF our hearts is for intelligent
response, and this can come only from
our equals, from equality" There is
q certain amount OF truth in this, but
experience shows the tendency to mate
with opposites. The short man gen.
orally chooses tall woman the fair
man brunette and brilliant men often
dull wives. Did not Racine read his
plays first to his cook? Pray who were
the favorites OF Goethe but rather stolld
lady friends One of the things hard
to account for in social life is the
strange contrast between intimate
friends and married folks. The asser-
tion is everiastingly being made "Well,
do not see what he or she can admire
in so and so." Friendship is a very
peculiar and subtle thing. 1t knows no
wherefore in its formation and yet a
trifle breaks it. ''The course of true
love never did run smooth" Intel
lectual men do not wish their counter
parts for friends. Nature abhors
monotony and loves the picturesque.
So do men. Savage life is a narrow
one, for it has few thoughts and
employements. All think alike, act
alike and die alike. 1t is only when
dissimilarity in mental makeup occurs
that real living begins. Talent and
genius are the products OF civilization
and this means infinite variety. II
there were no contrasts there would be
no life worth the name. II all were
millionaires or Edisons, who would do
the worlds rough work and save us
from harbarisn?

Single Track Rope Haulage.

The Brockwayville Record of last
week devoted column to write-up Of
tho coal works at Beechtree, which was
under the control of the Bell, Lewis &
Yates C. NJ. Co. for few years, but
reverted back to the Pittsburg Coal
and Iron Co. last May. We clip the
following paragraph from the Record
''The radical improvements which have
placed Beechtree on its present high
footing in mining circles is the intro
duction of a system of rope haulage of
the latest improved pattern. This in
itself is not such a wonderful affair, for
the same haulage system is used at Big
Soldier mine at Reynoldsville and
Eleanora, and at one or two other places
in the district. The great achievement
at Beechtree is the feat OF hauling on
an endless rope over single track
from opposite directions, a feat never,
SO far as known, accomplished In
mining circles before"

AWFUL CYCLONE.
TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE AND
PROPERTY.
Many Texas Towns Visited by the Storm
Sherman the Greatest Sufferer.

Sherman, Tex, May IA terrific
cyclone struck this city at 4:3O o'clock
Friday afternoon, killing many peo-
pie and doing much damage to prop
erty. The path of the destroyer was
$50 yards wide. 1t struck the city at
the west end of Post Oak creek and
swept in westerly direction for sew
eral blocks and then spread and spent
its force. The track of the cyclone is
a gruesome sight, the devastation be-
ing complete. Houses, trees, fences,
and, in fact, everything in its path
way were destroyed. The loss of life
will probably be $50, with as many
more bruised and wounded.
When the first blast of the cyclone
was felt at Justin, in Denton county,
more than 100 miles from Sherman
men, women and children were wholly
unprepared for it. Justin was the
first town to feel the blast. The work
of ruin was quickly accomplished
there.
From there the cyclone swept
northeast through Herald, Denton,
thence to Mingo, to Cripple Springs,
and on to Mustang, A hundred miles
was travelled in an hour. The snail
settlements along the line = 81 Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas railroad, north
of Denton, all suffered. Elmwood
was dashed and then the village of
Howe. The southeast end of Sher-
man received the full force of the
storm, which, while sweeping over
Denton county, and part of Gray
son, seemed to have gathered new
fury and to have wreaked the worst
of its ruin on this city.
