CRACKER ENGLISH.
Much of 1t Is Simply Obsolete English
Idiom.

A writer in the Chautauquan says
that many Cracker" idioms of the
south are simply obsolete English
idioms. Fielding, for instance" he
says, makes very near approach to
the crackerism He allowed he'd do it
In such passage as this: The audi
ence allowed / did your part justice
and when Burke complains that Eng
land is disfurnished of its forces he is
using almost the exact phraseology Of
my cracker neighbor who has come to
borrow a peck Of meal, and politely
hopes that I am not DISTINGUISHING my
self for his accommodation. ZIP is still
heard, even among the better class ct
rustics, in the piny woods of Georgia
and Alabama in its Shakespearean
sense Of dangerous or wicked as the
copperhead is an ill snake or Johnny
is a very ill'-that is. naughty-'boy
this morning I am told by friend
from Kentucky that the same usage,
though rare, is not unknown among
the same class in that state To favor
meaning to resemble. as 'he favors his
father was good English in the days Of
Addison and Shakespeare, and its de-
Hvative, ill-favored,' is still current"

NEWSBOYS' INTUITION.
Can Tell at q Glance Whether Man
Wanta Paner.

The newsboys," said man to New
York Times writer, possess much
leener powers of observation than are
perhaps credited to them. From a long
way off they can tell whether man
intends to buy paper or not, ana it is
not often that they are mistaken IN
their judgment. A newsboy will hold
up the paper under a mans nose. SO
that he may read the headlines and be
enticed into making a purchase. The
boy invariably follows the mans eyes,
and If he shows any inclination 70 read
more than the headlines the little fell
low will walk alongside for nearly o
half block, still holding the paper up.
Sometimes, however, the boys are mis-
taken. They will let the man read all
the headlines on the front page only to
ind that he has no intention Of buying
q paper. In the end the man gets the
worst of it, for the boy never falls to
invite the attention of the passer-by to
his meanness in language more forcible
than polite"

THE KICK OF A RIFLE.
A Point Not Always Considered In Ruyfng
or in Using o. Gun.


When q man gets rifle for big-game
shooting he sometimes forgets to con-
slider one of then mportantpoints-
the kick. A gun which uses 70 grains
of powder and 500 grains of lead caves
a weak mans shoulder in and makes
the flesh black and blue. If the man
has more pluck than sense, he contin-
ues to use the big gun in spite of the dis
comfort, and thereby sometimes ruins
himself as n shot.
When one of the big bore, big charge,
rifle cranks picks up Il rifle andtires it at
target, alive or dead, a painful eN-
preston twists his face, and just as
he pulls the trigger the butt shoulder
tiinches from the recoil. That finch is
ruinous to the aim, and men often get
so used to tlinching that they dodge the
kick of n % short cartridge as vigor-
ously as they do a 5O-11O-5OO one.
Men who finch from their gun do
not know it usually, until some time
they are standing nicely balanced on n
freshly peeled hemlocll log, or some
other slippery place, and the gun misses
fire. The man ffinches and his foot slips
Mt that, and down Ec tumbles Even
then the chances are that he will not
understand the reason of it.

THE EARTH'S LONE COURSE.
Our Troubled Social Conditions Due to
Celestial Causes.

Celestial Causes.
Lieut.. A. c. Totten, whose fondness
for astrological calculations and infer
ences Is well known, declares that the
trouble with current affairs is not due
to the United States senate, the bicycle,
the new woman, or the silver question,
but may be accurately traced to the
contortions of the heavenly bodies. He
says, according to Harper's Weekly,
that when too many of the planets get
Gu the same side of the sun at the same
time it makes troubles for the earth,
and that now, for the first time in the
history of man, all the planets, except
earth, are approaching coincident peri
helia, and within four or five years will
be in line Juggling away at the sun,
while earth, alone on the other side
Of it, will have an exceedingly hard
time, and will be the scene of all sorts
of disasters and deyilment. Earth will
pull through, he thinks, after sore
trials; after which he looks for ''thc
literal rule of the returned Messiah"
and the winding up of the confusions
now formulating, at Jerusalem, which
city, he believes, will cease to be trod-
den by Gentiles, and will become the
center from which right rule and JUS
tice are to spread over the earth
Lieut.. Totten is familiar with both
the Bible and the higher mathematics,
and has a remarkable gift for stirring
them up together into concoctions that
give people bad dreams. He is a very
disconcerting person and a chronic
"bear," and his deliverances are we'll
| adapted to make timid believers realize
on their investments and take to the
woods

GAS PRESSURE DECREASES.
Notable Feature of the Year in Great
Industry.

The natural gas production in the
United States in 1895 is reviewed in a
report of the geological survey COM
piled by Expert Joseph d. Weeks. The
total value was $13,CO6,650, against $13,-
954 400 in 1894. The value of the prod
uct consumed was 1920 1877, and So
76s,230 was the value Of coal or wood
displaced by gas. The total pipe laid
was 43,s30,241 feet, and producing wells
opened 3,s26. The value of the con-
sumption during 1sS6-95 was greatest
in 1888, when it was $22 ,629,S75. From
then to 1891 the decrease was rapid,
and in the last four years there has been
a gradual decline. The most notable
feature of the year was the decreasing
pressure in all of the natural gas fields
of the country. The life of the wells
also has been greatly reduced.
