SCOTCH STRATEGY.


The Bearers of Government Papers
Confronted by u Bull.
Here is an adventure that some men,
bers of an English ordnance survey met
with while touring in the south of Scot
land, told in Harper's Round Table. In
the prosecution of their calling they en-
tered field belonging to crusty old
farmer. Seeing the strangers looking
about in n way he could not understand,
the farmer approached.
what are We lettering in the field
for?"
"Oh, we have right to go anywhere"
returned one of the company. I'VE are
surveying, and here are our govern
ment papers"

mo, we shan't," returned the man,
land you are rendering yourself liable
to prosecution for interrupting u.s."
The farmer said no more. but went
over to his shed, which opened into the
field, and let out vicious bull. The
bull no sooner saw the redcoats than he
went for them in full career. The sur
veyors snatched up their theodolite and
flew for their lives, while the old farm
or, in great glee, yelled after them:
"What are we running for? Can We

FAIR FIELD FOR WOMEN.
A Writer Tells What Her Feminine
CO-WOrkers Should Have.

CO-WOrkerS ShOuIu nave.
All women who are active in business
or professions want is a fair field and
nofavor, says MargaretSangsterin DEM
orest's Magazine. We ask for moth
ing on the ground of sex. We are will
ing to compete with and work with men
on their own ground and desire to be
measured by the same standards. We
demand no courtesy further than that
which prevails between gentlemen; we
expect no Difference. In business life
men and women are simply workers,
and the more the element of sex is in
truded the greater the interference
with the success of women.
l know young woman who went
into a newspaper Office on purely bust
ness errand-to sell an article, in fact
and was indignant because the re-
porters, all of whom were busy writ
ing, did not jump to their feet and offer
her a seat. They were absorbed in
their work, and most of them were
probably unconscious of her presence.
Perhaps rs women enter the Office of a
great New York daily every Dig. You
can easily see how it would interfere
with business if the reporters should
Immediately stop writing and pay them
the little attentions they are accus-
toned to in the drawing-room. The
woman who expects these shows her
ignorance of business; if they are nee
essary to her peace of mind she is out of
place in the business world.

GORGEOUS MALE SERVANTS.

Lord Mayors Genfiemen's Uniforms
to CIOthe Dusky MOnarchs.
1 was told some amusing facts the
other day about the lord mayors men
servants. 1t seems. says a writer in
the Collector, that the present lord
mayor has IS, eight of whom are over
six feet in height. Their livery is sap
Zaire blue velvet, with heavy gold lace
These uniforms are only worn during
the year of Office, after which they be-
come the property OF the servants, who
sell them to the firTn which supplied
them.
This is an ancient house, having the
monopoly of supplying uniforms to the
ser yants of city graudees. And what
do you suppose becomes of these
clothes eventually? They are sent out
to African kings for wear on state oc-
casions, at least the majority are,
though a few are retained for the the
atePs.
Z But the most comical part of the
whole affair is that the firm of clothiers
is sometimes asked to send out
throne or a crown of gold to the dusky
potentates with the garments. And
they do it, too: a city merchant will
supply anything under the sun.

WOMEN AMONG FLOWERS.
School of Gardening for Girls in n
suburb of Berlin.

School of Gardening for Girls in q
suburb of Berlin.
A London paper tells of school of
gardening for girls in a suburb of Ber-
lin. 1t is a comparatively new venture,
having been founded two years ago by
a private lady. At present it seems to
be succeeding. The pupils-15 in num-
ber-do the work entirely without ex-
traneous aid, growing all sorts of vege-
tables, as well as apples, melons, grapes,
pears and cucumbers. for which a ready
sale is found. They wear dark gray
uniform, consisting of bodice and
skirt of reasonable length, which. by
an ingenious arrangement, can be
made quite short for working in and let
down at will The girls beat all the
men at recent board of agriculture eX-
animation, and one of them has just
obtained a post as gardener 10 a gen
tleman at a salary of $120 year, with
board and lodging. They are all fine
specimens of healthy, vigorous young
womanhood. Commenting on this, the
lady says: perhaps we see the thin
edge of the wedge! In the near future
women may be eligible for head gar
deners' posts at good salaries. And why
not? We have finer taste than men and
should be quite in our element design
ing exquisite pleasure grounds. AS for
the suitability of the employment, it
may be urged that digging is not harder
work than many OF the athletic wom-
ans recreations, nor is it a dirtier proc
ess than tramping through wet turnip
fields after guns"

A HAUNTED TREE.

The Coon Dog Turned Tail Wnen
They Struck 1t.
Last fall party of coon hunters from
this city were in the woods in this vicin-
ity and the dogs hunted splendidly I'M
til they struck this old tree, says the
Danville Ny) Advocate. There they
tucked their tails between their legs
and simply flew. They whined and
gave other evidences of fear and could
not be coaXed into hunting any more
that night. Finally the hunters them
selves became scared. One of them de-
clared he heard the sound of voice as
if from some soul in deep distress. This
settled it. Every man in the crowd
suddenly remembered that he had bust
ness in town and downward the whole
layout proceeded without further par
leying or loss of time. The next day
an old gentleman residing in Danville
was told of the occurrence and he re-
called the fact that he had been one of
the party which had a similar expert
ence near this old tree three years ago
and he said that the spot had been
haunted for many years. A long time
ego an old gentleman by the name OF
Louis Streat was murdered for his
money and the murderer had dragged
the body to the foot of this tree and
covered it with dry leaves. The muir
derer was never punished by law. A
young man named Henderson was ar
rested charged with the crime and at
his examining trial was liberated on
$4,000 bail. He jumped his bond and
disappeared some time afterward.

The bear stood up at an angle of about

then turn the claws inward upon the
ball of his foot, but when he reached
out through the bars he spread his
claws apart sideways, as one might
spread the fingers of his hand apart
The visitors would place a peanut be-
tween two of the claws, and then the
bear would close the claws together. as
one would close the fingers of his out
stretched hand. He would hold the pea
nut between tive claws in the same man

The general impression is that the
sgreat bulk of immigrants to the United
States find homes ''in the great west,
notably those from England. Wales
Issermany and the Scandinavian coun-
tries. The contrary, however. is shown
by recent figures to be the case. The
Mates into which immigrants go by
reference are those on the Atlantic
.saboard. Of $4,000 immigrants who
/ inded in this country during the last
/ seal year covered by the treasury re-
ort, $4,000 meant to remain in New
I ork state. Some $1,000 others had
4 ennsylvania for their destination and
900 Massachusetts,; SO that these
,ree states absorbed about two-thirds
the whole immigration to the United
f,ates.

A EISSIPATED DOG.
The Animal Has "A Weakness for Get
ting on a Spree.


Fort Logan, Col, has favorite who
is the cause of more temperance lee
lures than all the frequenters of that
post put together, says the ST. Louis
Globe-Democrat. He has contracted
the bad habit of indulging in the flow
ing bowl and when in the vicinity of the
canteen-about the time of pay day
especially-he is sure to get more or
less intoxicated on the offerings of the
doughboys, who like to share with
their favorite the good things of the
day which comes but once a month.
Jerry Simpson is a private in the ranks
and is a total abstainer, never going
near the canteen except when ordered
there on duty to escort to the guard
house those who are unable to pick
their way to the barracks. On such
an occasion it is not an uncommon
thing for Jerry to find Colonel, his IA
nous retriever, prone on the floor in
the highest stage of inebriation, chew
ing the last remnant of good-sized jag.
Colonel is kept by his master for his
usefulness on the hunting field, though
he would not suffer for home as long
rs any Of his boon companions re-
manned in the ranks. They love him
dearly and keep him well fed and sup
piled with tobacco-for the Colonel also
likes taste of the herb nicotina when
he is in the dumps after soaking his
head in the stable bucket on the morn
ing following a debauch. He is
troubled specter when in his moods
after recovering from the good things
of the night before and acts very much
like one of the twofooted jewellers who
enticed him from the sedate quarters
of his owner. Private Simpson keeps
warm place in his heart for the for
lorn canine when he is seduced by the
canteen crowd into bibulous condi-
ton.
