He Had HIS Revenge.

when a young and callow fresh

professor. "The inspiration to these
outbreaks Of lunacy was in the sur
roundings. l would fall in a fit just
to see some of the old people scamper
about and look frightened. Among

to be dumb, sometimes deaf, and on

Tom left for the smoker, for he never

Fun Among the Congressman.

Young Mr. Crisp Is a general favor
ite among the Democratic members Of
the House, and room is always made
for him vheneyera a little coterie Of con-
genial spirits are gathered about the
open fireplace in the Democratic cloak
room. The old friendship that existed
between Judge Culberson and Judge
Crisp has been continued with tue lat
ter's son. And that Is " by the young
er man can make mild Jokes at the ex-
pense of his old friend without giving
ofense.
Judge, said Mr.. Crisp, as the Texas
statesman came into the cloak-room
one morning recently, 1--WE want you
to settle little dispute for us
The Judge was all attention in
moment.
MAY a man in Texas marry his de-
ceased widows sister ?'
Certainly he may, averred the
Texas member of the Judiciary com
mittee, without moments hesitation.
1T is only over in England that they
raise any question about that.
But, Judge" persisted the young
Georgian, "stop and think minute.
How can a man marry his widow $ Sis
ter"
And even if the Judge had desired
to make an explanation it could not
have been heard for the laughter that
followed
1t was while the Judge was still very
much frustrated at the foregoing, al
though the crowd had resumed their
sober faces, that his tormentor began
again
Il have always heard, Judge, that
you were an authority in Biblical mat

Build Higher.

A young lady was dying Of con-
sumption. AS she sat at the open
window, she saw a couple of little
birds come and build their nest on a
branch not high from the ground. Day
by day she watched them, and OBJ
served first the nest, then the eggs, and
then the nestlings. AS she watched
them day by day, she used to shake
her head and say, SILLY birds, why
not build higher2" And then when
the little nestlings came and began TO
show their heads above the nest, the
burden Of her exclamation was still,
Why not higher
One morning when she took her ac-
customed seat at the window lattice,
she saw the nest all torn TO pieces, and
the ground strewn with the feathers of
the poor little nestlings, and marks of
violence all around aad then she
said "Ah did ! not tell you to build
higher? Had You built higher you
would have been secure from harm,
and this dire mishap would not have
befalIen you" And you, my friends,
when YOU come TO cross the river of
death, if ever you fail to get to the
better land, when you look back 1t
will be with the bltterest remorse that
you will cry out, Why did | not build
higher Why did | not lay up my
treasure in Heaven, instead Of spend
ing my time and my money on the
meat which perisheth, and on pleasures
which pass away in moment2-Hcmy

Reward for Killing Train Robbers,

A Chicago dispatch announces that
express aad railroad managers have
sent to messengers and train guards
letter which, if the offers made are car
ried into effect, may cause tram rob-
bers to hesitate before they determine
to hold up a train. These letters in
struct the men 10 shoot to kill IN every
case where robbery is clearly the IN
tent Of any one who interferes with
the running Of the train, and a cash
reward is held out for each robber shot
but not killed and 81 900 for any
Jesse James emulator who is made 10
bite the dust.
A general changing Of arms has been
going on for some time. The most I'M
proved pattern Of repeating rifles and
riot guns have taken the place Of arms
Of less deadly and rapid execution.
Cars are also being built with an eye
to more resistance against the on
slaught Of tram robbers. Floors and
sides are reinforced with iron plates
and doors made heavier, with stronger
iastenings. The gang that successfully
holds up a train during the present
year must risk considerably more than
heretofore.

cornstalk Possibilities.

Mr. Prater, of st Louis, who is con-
nected with cornstalk enterprise at
Owensboro, Ky, and has given the
product careful scientific study, was
in New Orleans the other day and
talked entertainingly to a Picayune
reporter with regard TO the PossibiIi-
ties Of the cornstalk. 1t Is his candid
opinion that within a few years the
farmers Of the country will be receiv-
ing from So to S25 per acre for their
cornstalks. Mills will be established
in the South and other parts of the
country, he says, and pretty nearly
the whole crop Of cornstalks-at any
rate, that part of the crop which IL
grown on farms contiguous to railway
hnes-will be used in the mills. The
market for the manufactured products
is already made, as the products will
be staple articles in constant demand.
Ofthe products that may be evolved
from the matured cornstalk-the stalk
which has borne It's grain-Mr Prater
enumerates cellulose, celluloid, smoke
less gunpowder, lacquer, cattle feed,
roofing material, and material that
will answer every purpose Of papler-
mache. Green stalks, he says, are rich
in glucose, will yield "a better quality
and finer suglr with less expense than
it can be made from the cane OF Louis
lana.
