Delicions snails of Provence.

Tho Provencal snails, which feed in a gourmet fashion upon vino leaves, are peculiarly delicious, and there was Q murmur of delight from our company as the four women brought to the table four big dishes full of them, and for a while there was only the sound of eager mnnehing, mixed with the chatter on china of the empty shells. To extract them we had the strong thorns, three or four inches long, of the wild acaeia, and on these tho little brown morsels were carried to the avid mouths and eaten with bit of bread sopped sn the sauce, and then tho shell was subjected to a vigorous sucking, that not q drop of sauee lingering within it should be lost,

ALPINE i-lERD5WoMEN.
They Wore Trousers Before I;loomors
 Were Heard or.

They Wore Trousers Before Eioomers
 Were Heard Of.
 Long before the days of bloomers women on the higher level of the Alps wore trousers, and no ono thought any thing about it. The Alpine women wear the bifurcated garment for utility and not for beauty, as one may judge if he or she has seen one of these girls. Come liness and the Alpine herdswemen afe far apart, but the style of the garments they wear and the hard life that is theirs are at tho root of the trouble
 These women have little of tho grace and agility seen in the maidens of Nor way. They will leap across ehasnls with nonchalance, but there is nothing wild and free about their movements. While she is talking to you the Alpine herds woman is quito apt to thrust out an un- gainly leg, plant heavy boot on the neck of . goat and stand thus while she converses.
 With tho exception of the blacks who endure q life of hunger in the interior of Africa there is hardly any ono in the world who fares so badly as tho herds men and women of Switzerland, They cannot affort to eat the berries they find on the mountain side, and they cannot afford to drink the milk supplied by their fiocks. Their fare is meat that has been dried, salted and turned into un- savory leather, rye bread that i5 like blaekened cinders and cabbage stalks i'll pickle, that contain about as much 1atri- ment as q walking stick. Hungry as tho herdswoman may be on her return home, she must eat but sparingly of thege dainties, for fear they should come to an end before another tripto the valley can be made.
 Theso women breakfast at ill the morning and then answer the response of the cattlo lowing at tho door of the chalet, begging to be attended to and driven up to some fayorite Alp. They eat again some 12 or II hours later, when tho weary tramp back to the chalet is about to begin. Between times, with sickles, they reap tho long, coarse Alpine grasses, which are to serve IS food for tho cattle during the winter.
 This grass is bound into bundles as l large as the women themselves and car ried on their backs down to the home steads. The winter firewood is brought the same way. The chalet, the home of one of these women, Is the most pietur- esque of any peasants dwelling place, but inside it is not desirable. It is usu- nily perched on the erags of the Ober- land and is dark, for the windows are constructed not so much to admit light as to keep out the heavy snows of the winter. In one corner is a low, broad platform with sacks of hay and a cou l pie of blankets upon 1t. Tho less luxuri ous dispense with tho blankets and tht herdswoman usually goes to rest in tht same attire sho wore during tho day. Il the autumn, when the cattle are driver down for the last time, a dance is giyer by tho herdsmen and the women, and ol these occasions tho girls exchange theil trousers for the usual skirt. -Kansal l City Times

A nrarrelous reat of Memory.

Maretns tells us that during his trav- els over Europe he met the marvel of marvelss at Padua. The marvel in question was young Corsican, whG was ill tho city for the purpose of pUr. suing his studies at the university. Ma retus, havirg heard that the young man was gifted with all extraordinary mem- ory, desired to put the student to the test.
 The person who had informed tho traveller concerning the wonderful TO- tentiveness of the young Corsica1's memory declared that he was go gifted iii that faculty that he could repeat as many as 36, GOO words if read over to him but once. Marcus and three distin- guished Venetians agreed 10 test the ac- ouracy of the statement. A committee visited the student of extraordinary memory and found him willing to sub init to the ordeal Accordingly there was read over to him an almost inter- minable list of words strung together without any consecutive order and without any meaning whatever
 The young man stood all tho time with his attention deeply fixed and his eyes half closed When tho long string of words had been read off, he looked up cheerfully and repeated tho whole of the uninteresting catalogue of words without a single fault. Then, to show how carefully his wonderful memory had retained every word, he went through the list backward. When that task was finished. he took each alter nate word--first, third, fifth, etc. -and repeated them until the company was thoroughly convinced that they were in the presenc of the most wonderful prod igy of nlef rory that the world had ever produced. --St. Louis Republic.

Says the Helena World: "Col. New man, of the Pine Bluff Commercial, has been talking too much again. This is habit which has gotten the gallant Colonel in trouble on more than one occasion, but somehow he does not seem to have the courage to break away from it. This time he has been criticising his esteemed contemporary, Jimmy Adams, of the GRAPHIC, for alleged smartIess in animadverting upon the conduct of the judiciary, the inference, of course, being that Col. Newman was entirely free from that execra- ble weakn ass. Jeems, however, is usually loaded for the Colonel, and for that purpose keeps on hand full files of the Colonei's own paper. Now it is entirely possible to prove any proposition under the sun by consulting the ColonePs files, pro vided, of course, that gentleman is conceded to be an authority At any rate, for the purposes of his ar gument, the GRAPHIC man uses the Commercial mans own columns against him, and makes him out a more sarcastic, bitter and unsparing critic of the same member of the iu- dietary than anybody else has ever been. We advise Col. Newman to swear off or retire all outstanding files of the Commercial.

Addition so Yeilo astona Park.

Captain Andersen, superintendent of the Yellowstone National park, says that an effort is being made to secure legislation from congress which would add the Jackson's Hole country to the park. The area which it was proposed to take in is about 90 miles square and contains Jackson's lake and the Three Futon mountain peaks. It is rich in natural scenery and would. in the opin- ion of the captain, add materially to the parks attractiyeness. Senator Car ter of Montana has drafted bill for that purpose. which has the indorse- ment of tho senators from Montana and Idaho, but the Wyoming senators have not yet been won oyer.-Omaha Bea
