BECOMING POPULAR IN EUROPE.
Demand for American Hnrdwoods
Il

Demand for American Hnrdwoods
Steadily Growing on the Continent.
a significant fact in the Industrial
world of Europe is the steadily increas-
ing demand for hard woods that are in
dIgenous to the soil Of America. AS
may be supposed, oak leads the foreign
shipments, although tulip, poplar, ash,
gum and black walnut, whenever u good
quality can be secured, are in some de-
mand. European consumers like the
quality of American oak, and, since it
is known to be plentiful here, it will
probably be in increasing demand. Cot
tonwood has been shipped to Germany
in considerable quantities. where cheap
wood is required for furniture, and
other uses. Much of this lumber is
forwarded from New Orleans, and since
q great part of the oak, ash, poplar, cot
tonwood and other timbers demanded
by the foreign market is in the south
ern states, it is not improbable that
lumber for foreign markets will be
largely shipped in future from the gulf
ports. In speaking of this matter the
Northwestern Lumberman says that
the European market requires lumber
cut of exact thickness, and of accurate
length, trimmed so as to have the butts
square and true. Space for piling in the
yards of The old world is an object, so
that random, uneven lengths are objec-
tionable, and, since the foreign buyer
insists that he shall have just what he
bargains for, quality should be strictly
attended to.

IN HONOR OF WOMEN.
A Pretty Custom That Prevails In a
Swiss Canton.


1t is interesting to note how two small
communities conspire to do honor to
their womankind op account of services
rendered in days long past. says the
New York Journal. The Swiss canton
of Argovie yearly celebrates fete
which dates back to the year l1l2. when
Seigneur de Hallwyl raised regiment
of amazoiIs to assist some Bernese
troops who were hard pressed by the
Catholic cantons. On Il given Sunday
the women of the commune of MeiSter-
schwanden and Fahrwangen assume
lordship over the masterful sex The
married women and girls issue invita-
tions to their husbands and friends and
the whole community assemblies 1T Il
village inn. The men who are here en-
tertained to tea. beer and cakes. are
pear from al adjoining room to choose
them as partners for the dance.
The women shelter and chaperon
their guests throughout the evening.
and when dancing is done they escort
the poor. weak men back to their own
fresides. \ pretty custom, deserving
10 be perpetuated.
Another small community on the
Isle of Man evinces its gratitude in a
more pratical manner still. On one occa-
sion an invading force seemed likely to
overcome the islanders, when the wom-
en- rushed to the rescue and defeated
the enemy. Since then a Manx-woman,
after marriage. becomes possessed of
one-half of her husbands property,
whether possessed then or acquired at
q later date. So absolute is her owner

on death in the manner best pleasing

WANTED TO GET EVEN.
How "a Pass FienI Workcl. Advance
Agent and Punis, Il cd His Grocer.


The theatrical agent who goes out
ahead of show always has many funny
experiences and especially with the
seeker after free passes in the rural
cities, says the New York Tribune.
Ramsay Morris, who is advance man
for May Irwin's company, tells funny
story about his last trip to Pittsburgh.
He fingered over to see the show open
Monday night, and while standing in
the box office of the theater in the
afternoon he heard the ticket seller
having an argument over the telephone
with some one. Finally the ticket seller
hung up the receiver with an cath.
Mr.. Morris inquired what was the mat
ter. The ticket seller said:
THAT is from Nj, the dramatic
critic; he never fails to work every ad-
vance man for four passes to the
show"
Guilty" said Mr.. Morris. II gave
him four, but what's the trouble?"
"Well," said the ticket seller, that
fellow pays his board with those passes
and buys groceries and does other
things. He has just called up here to
take up two passes and refuse admit
tance to the holder. He says that he
gave them to his grocer for two dozen
| eggs and that the eggs were bad, and he
wants to get even."

THE PRESIDENT AND HIS SALARY
Can He Live at Ease on the Income
from His Savings:

Can He Live at Ease on the Income
from His Savings:
Il shall not attempt to answer the
question: How much of his salary does
the president expend?" writes ex-Presi
dent Harrison in an article in the
Ladies' Home Journal, on The Social
Life of the President" "But those who
think he can live at his ease after his re-
tirement on the income from his saw
ings should take account of several
things: First, that the net income
from safe investments does not exceed
four per cent; second, that the amount
invested in home yields no income,
and third. that he must have q private
secretary, for his mail will be so large
that he cannot deal with it himself. A
son of one of our most eminent presi
dents who had lost all of his means told
me that it was pathetic to see his father,
Who was in ill health, laboring beyond
his strength to answer the letters that
came to him. But if the president re-
tains a fair measure of health he will
take care of himself. If he was ever
capable of directing the affairs of the
nation he may be trusted to administer
his own business; and if he has won the
esteem of his fellow-citizens, and has
rightly valued it, he will not barter it
for riches. To any voca ton from which
man may be suitably called to the
presidency he may suitably return"

Miners, I.amp. on shfpboard.

The use of a miners safety lamp to
avoid the accidental firing of explo-
sive atmospheres on board ship is ad-
vocated by an English writer. He
claims suitably-ftted safety lamp
gives the most ready, trustworthy and
delicate tests for such dangerous gases
or vapor. If the flame of safety lamp
be extinguished when it was carried
into air containing combustible gas or
vapor the atmosphere is almost certain
ly in an irrespirable and explosive con-
dition, and the space should not be en-,
tered until the atmosphere has been
completely replaced by ventilation. Ii
q hydrogen flame be substituted for the
ordinary oil flame the test is made still
more delicate.

Remarkable Whale story.

A curious story, which comes from
Caen, is told by the Paris correspond
ent of the London Morning Post. A.
NJ. Dubosq was duck shooting at the
mouth of the River Orne when whale
rose near his boat. He fired both bar
rels of his gun into the animal, which
dived. The water being very shallow,
the whale soon rose again, whereupon
NJ. Dubosq jumped upon its back and
began stabbing it with large knife.
He was tossed into the sea, but returned
to the attack and finally succeeded in
driving the whale ashore. NJ. Dubosq
has sold his capture to company and
it has been towed to Caen. 1t IS Is
years since whale was captured ON
this part of the French coast.

Remir rders of the Commune.

Parisians constantly find awful re-

staring them in the face. Recently the
water supply of the city was being
ameliorated, and in order to build some
storage tanks works were carried on
in the Charonne quarter. There,
wrapped in their great coats or blank
cts, no fewer than 500 bodies were
found all victims of the bloody fights
which took place about May. 1871.
These remains were gathered up and
buried in a corner of the Charonne GEM
