at the time declined to entertain the
thought Of payment or support in any
form, but signiled his interest in the
proposition. Later, after the invitation
had been repeated by n former comrade of
Mr.. LEHMAN in the Cambridge boat. Mr..
PEABODY of Boston, Mr.. LEHMAN accepted
1t, carefully insisting that no part
OF his expenses, either for travelling
or for his stay here, was to be paid
for him. He was to coach the crew this
iali while this river was open, and, return
ing to England, come back here again in
the spring to remain until the race. Mr..
LEHMAN said emphatically that if he re-
celved n penny of compensation in any form
FOR his services he would no longer be an
amateur, or able thereafter to engage in
amateur sports, a position which he de-
clined to accept.
Mr.. LEHMAN's relations to the Harvard
crew are no different from those which he
has sustained to the Oxford crew. In fact,
at some time in every year in which Mr..
LEHMAN has coached the English university
crews they have been his guests at his house
on the Thames.
Mr.. LEHMAN's kindness in thus visiting
this country Is one of the most refreshingly
sportsmanlike acts we know Of, and the
performance of the Harvard crew, under
his instruction, will be watched next
summer with very great public interest.

MOST PECULIAR ROOSTER,

He Very Much Resembles Bird Of Par
alise.-
To see a rooster that resembles a bird
of paradise is rare sight, but such a
one has recently been a common spec
tacle in Japan, says the New York
World.
This particular fowl was, apart from
his gorgeous appeudage, of the ordinary
type found in Japan, except that he was
little more proud in his bearing than
his fellows.
tmay have been his manner that first
led to, his selection as the bearer of a
most magnificent tail. The brief history
that can be obtained of this freak
rooster is silent on that point. 1t prob
ably was selected because only an AFRO
CANT, lordly manner could support such
a wonderful and variegated appendage.
Be that as it may, the rooster did GER
tainly have tail 16 feet long. In it were
all the bright colors Imaginable. The
tail was far more brilliant in it's color
ings than the shining feather-fan of a
peacock.
The neighbors of the Jap displayed no
Interest in the freak bird, but were
amused by those who expressed admira-
ton and wonder, who were invariably
foreign travellers.
Then it was discovered that the beau
tiful long. tail was not freak Of nature,
but the clever work of the ingenious
Jap, who had fashioned and fastened the
tail in such a! q way as to defy detection
except after the most minute scrutiny.

5A TRUE MUSICIAN.
Whitcomb's Genius Turned an Old Fiddle
Into 8. Thing OF beauty. zr* .ss55

WhitcOmb'S Genius Turned an Old Fiddle
Into O. Thing OF Beauty.
James Whitcolnb Was4a prominent
citizen of Indiana in her early days,
and he was not only a politician, but one
of the best amateur musicians in the.
country. He composed several pieces
for the violin, which was his chosen
instrument, and many are the stories
told of him and his fiddle.
Atone time, says the Pittsburgh Dis
patch, he was travelling from Indianapo-
lis to eastern Indiana, and stopped for
the night at house on a lonely road.
He entered the cabin with his compan-
ion, and there they found a lame young
man called Amos, sitting by the fire
scraping at an old violin with most dis
astrous results.
He laid the violin on the bed and
started away to the stable with the
horses. Mr.. Whitcomb at once took up
the violin, tuned it, and when Amos re-
turned was playing light andHbeauti-
ful airs. Amos was entranced. He sat
down, and, mouth wide open in wonder,
watched the musician. Then Mr.. Whit
comb struck up s'Hail Columbia" and
the youth could bear it no longer. He
sprang to his feet. -@.
IF I had $780, cried he, I'D give it
all for that fiddle! never heard such
music.n 49,
Mr.. Whitcomb said nothing, but kept
on playing. BY and by, when he had
finished, he laid the violin on the bed.
This was the young mans opportunity.
He sprang up, seized the instrument,
carried it to the fire, where he could sec
more plainly, aud turned it over and
over, examining every part.
Mister" he sang out, in high excite
ment. Il never in my life see two fid-
dies so much alike as yours and mine!''

INDIANS WANT SILVER.

They Have No Use for Gold Coin or Paper
s. Money.
If the silver question were left to the
Sioux Indians to be decided, says the
Sioux Falls Argus-Leader, they would
speedily decide: it in a manner that
would. prove perfectly satisfactory to
the. advocates Of free silver coinage.
The Sioux are naturally in favor of
Tree silver coinage, principally because
silver is more easily counted by them
than any other kind of money. White
Ghost, the venerable head of the Crow
Creek SIOUX, in discussing the money
question while in town recently, ad-
S;anced some peculiar: ideas regarding
money, which are undoubtedly shared
by practically every member of the
Sioux nation. He says that when the
government pays the people on his
reservation the $198,0oO due to them,
he wants it paid in silver dollars. Gold
is detested by the Indians because the
coins are so small when the sum they
represent is taken into consideration.
White Ghost. said he could not under
Stand why "a ten-dollar bill should not
pc just ten times as large asaone-dollar
bill, He thinks the government should
increase IN the size Of bills in proportion
to the, sum they represent, even if it
was necessary that a $10O bill should be
as as large: as a horse blanket. If the
government persists in paying them
partly in bills, they would like to see
the change made. But silver dollars
are what the Indians want, even should
they receive them in such quantities
Shat they would have to be transported
20 their agencies in wagons.

: VCISSITUDES OF LIFE,

sequel to an Experience OF Q Struggling
Young Author.
"You remember my telling YOU
awhile ago, when we. were talking about
the vicissitudes of life," said a strug-
Cling young author, according to the
New York Sun, 'sabout an experience
that I had once? I had a. number OF
manuscripts, you remember, which I
desired to sell and which I sent out to
the publications I thought them hes,
suited for. One after another they came
back, until they had all come back but
enc. That one, in my own Judgment,
was much the best of the lot, and had
built strong hopes upon it; and when,
so to speak, it still didn't come back, 1
felt sure that it had been accepted.
But after waiting awhile longer and not
hearing from it, wrote, asking about
it, and the publisher wrote me polite
note saying they had NO record of it; it
had never been received.
'"That was the story as I told it to
you, and supposed that that was the
end of it; and it was pretty tough,
wasn't it? But now let me tell you the
sequel.
'Of course I wrote a polite note in
reply to the publisher; and in that note
| described the. manuscript and said
that perhaps it might yet be found;
and later it was found, and, by snakes.
they returned lit
THAT was solemn; but it was one of
those things that are so everlastingly,
gosh olastedly solemn that you have to
laugh over 'en; and there can't be
any thing very terrible in anything that
You can laugh over; so, you see, come to
take it altogether, that experience was
not very distressing after all.''

Now scheme for Making Plants Bloom

Now scheme for Making Plants Bloom
n, - Out of Senson. S&s$
Quite q revelation In horticulture. has
been il progress during the pastdecade,
7ialthpugh, owing to the secret manner in
which the experime hts leading up to it
have been conducted, comp atively few
spersons have been aware of the new de-
parture, says Chambers Journal.
Everyone knows that, flowers, as well
as fruits and vegetables, are forced,
so that those who are rich shall have
the use of them before unaided nature
brings them to maturity. The forcing
business is an expensive one, requir-
ing: constant attention and skilled Ia
hor. Many attempts, therefore, have
been made to get at the golden eggs
by cheaper means, and as result of
many trials the opposite process to
forcing has been adopted with sue
eess. = ~"
: The system consists in retarding the
towering of the plant by refrigeration,
and is, of course, only applicable to those
which are hardy in this country, by
which we mean those which will stand
several degrees Of frost. The lily of
the valley is one of them, and it is much
in request for purposes Of decoration.
ztEnder: the old forcing conditions only
about SO per cent. of the buds treated
could be induced to- flower, but by the
ireezing process an average of IS per
GENT. can be secured from the end of
Summer zip to Christmas. It will be
noted THAT the process cannot be ap-
piled to >evergreens of any kind and it
would certainly be the death of camel
las and probably hyacinths and tulips.
1t is said that near Berlin three grow
ers alone have nearly 300 acres of lily
of the valley under cultivation and
shat they have adopted the refrigerating
%naethod with great success. It has long
ago been proved that the plant can
be cultivated in England with equal
success, and we trust that the new meth
cd will soon be tried on AN extensive
scale in this country.

Did you ever notice that men always

with blue eyes, and have their sus-
picions Of the girl with brilliant black
ones, and will you kindly tell me why?
asks a writer in the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal. Is it that the. limpid blue eye,
transparent and gentle, suggests all
the soft, womanly Writ ues, and because
he thinks be can see through it, clear
down into that blue7eyed girls soul,
that she is the kind of a girl he fancies
she is?. 7 think It is, but some of tue
greatest aittse frauds ! know are the
:purry, kiittepy girls with the big limo
cent blue eyes. Blazing black eyes, and
the rich, warm colors, which dark
skinned women have to wear suggest
energy and brilliance and no end Of
intellect. Men look into such eyes and
Seem not TO be able to see below the
surface. They have not the pleasure of
a. long, deep gaze into Unreasonable
depths. And so they think her design
&ng and clever, and, perhaps (God save
ihe markD, even intellectual, whenz
perhaps, she has a wealth Of love and de-
Fotion and heroism stored up behind
that impullsive disposition and those
dazzling black eyes, which would do
and dare more in minute for some man
she had set that great heart of hers
upon, than your cold-blooded, tranquil
blond would do in 40 years. A mere
question Of pigment in the eye has set
tled many mans fate in life, and es-
tablished him with a wife who turned
out to be very different from the girl
he ffondly thought he was getting.
