Ran and Caught the Car.

A short man with fat, red face ran
out Of the Erie railroad depot at the
foot of West Twenty third street the
other forenoon and chased a crosstown
Car which was midway between Elev-
enth avenue and the ferry. He was a
fast runner and held his hat in his left
hand as he gained on the Car. The pas
sengers on the rear platform, in spirit
Of mirth, encouraged him:
Don't give up. You'll make it.
Make a squirt, old boy. This is your
last chance to get car before two min
utes," one of them said.
At Eleventh avenue he caught up,
and, perspiring profusely, sprang upon
the rear platform. He appeared happy,
and when he handed his fare to the con-
ductor he said: "These Blocker street
cars that run down Ninth avenue do
not 60 often, SO I ran to catch this one -
The conductor rang up the fare, and in
q matter of fact way answered:
''This car goes to Thirty fourth street
ferry. Get out and wait for Blocker
street car. -
The Splinter got off as some of the
passengers cried out:
"You can run anyway. It is better
to run and lose Car than never to per-
spire at all. New York Commercial.

Machinery and Modern Farming.

The smallest implement upon big
wheat FARM is plow. And from the
pillow to the elevator-from the first
operation in wheat farming to the last
-one is forced to realize how the spirit
Of the age has made itself felt here and
has reduced the amount Of human labor
to the minimum. The man who plows
uses his muscle only incidentally in
guiding the machine The man who
operates the harrow has half dozen
levers to tighten his labor. The ''sowe1
who goeth forth to SOW, walks leisure
~ behind drill and works brakes. The
reaper needs quick brain and quick
hand, but not necessarily strong arm
nor a powerful back. He works sitting
down.
The thrashers are merely assistants
to a machine, and the men who heave
the wheat into the bins only press but
tons. The most desirable farmland is
not the fellow who can pound the
"mauling machine'' most Justify at the
county fair. He is the man with the
cunning brain who can get the most
work out of a machine without break
ing it. The farm laborer in the west to-
day, where machinery is employed,
finds himself advanced to the ranks Of
skilled labor and enjoys a position not
widely different from that of the mill
hand in the east Each is tender of a
neutrality-suspicious. Allen White in

RULES FOR CANDY MAKING.
Mrs. Rorer Tells How CONNECTIONS May He
Made 1T Home.

Mrs. Rorer Tells How CONNECTIONS May Bo
Made ct Home.
Mrs. s. T. Rorer tells how to make
candies at home in The Ladies' Home
Journal and gives the following rules,
which insure the success Of the work:
Never stir the sugar and water after
the sugar has dissolved. Wipe down
constantly the granules forming on the
side Of the saucepan. Do not shake or
move the saucepan while the sirup is
boiling. As soon as the sugar begins to
boil watch it carefully, having il your
hand bowl Of ice water, so that you
may try the sirup almost constantly.
Have everything in readiness before be-
ginning. If the sugar grains, use it for
old fashioned cream candy or sugar
taffy. It cannot be used for fondant.
Use only the best granulated sugar for
boiling and confectioners' Xxx for
kneading. If your fondant grains with
out apparent cause, you may have boil
ed it little too long. A few drops Of
lemon juice or little cream of tartar
will prevent this. Fondant is the soft
mixture which forms both the inside of
the French candies and the material in
which they are dipped, and it is to OBJ
tain this that the sugar is boiled.
AFTER the sugar has reached the
soft ball, a semihard condition, it
must be poured carefully into large
meat plate or on marble slab. Do not
scrape the saucepan or you will granu-
late the strip. Make your fondant one
day and make it up into candy the next.
Never melt fondant by placing the
saucepan Immediately on the stove.
Prevent the danger Of scorching by
standing the pan containing it in ba.
sin of water. If the melted fondant is
too thick, add water most cautiously, a
drop at a time. A half teaspoonful more
than is necessary will ruin the whole.
To cool candy place it in a cool, dry
place. To keep candy put it between
layers Of waxed paper in tin boxes. If
the day is bright and clear, the sugar
loses it's sickness quickly; therefore
select a fine day for your candy max

NAMES WE MISSED.

Some Of the Titles Intended For Gu,
Geographical Divisions.
It was intended that Maryland should
be called Crescentia, but Charles
changed it to Terra Mari@, in honor OF
his wife, and we made it Mary's Land
hence Maryland (home pronunciation,
Merrylon). William Penn wanted tc
call his state New Wales, but afterward
decided upon Sylvania, to which the
king prefxed the word Penn. In 1884
an ordinance was drawn up as follows
''The territory northward of the forty
fifth degree-that is to say, of the com
pletion Of the forty fifth degree from
the equator and extending to the Lake
Of the Woods-shall be called Syl-
vania.' See what we missed! The ter.
ritory under the forty fifth and forty
fourth degrees which lies westward of
Lake Michigan was to be called Michi-
gania, while that to the eastward, with
in the peninsula formed by the lakes and
waters of Michigan, Huron, St. Clair
and Erie, was to be called Chersonesus.
Heaven forbade
Of the territory lying under the forty
third and forty second degrees, that to
the westward, called Assenisipia; that
to the eastward, in which are the sources
of the Muskingum, the two, Miamis of
the Ohio, the Wabash, the Illinois, the
Miamis Of the lake, and the Sandusky
rivers, was to be called Metropotamia.
The country through which the Illinois
river runs was to be called nlinoia; the
next joining to the eastward, Saratoga,
and that between the last and Pennsyl-
vania, extending from the Ohio to Lake
Erie, Washington. All that region ad-
jacent to which are the confuences of
the Wabash, Shawnee, Tanisee, Ohio,
Illinois, Mississippi and Missouri rivers,
was to be called Polytamia, and that
farther up the Ohio, Pelisipia. Verify, a
watchful Providence seems to have
guarded US from these aff1ictions.-New

BLOWN OUT TO SEA.

Helpless Birdk That Are Driven to Death
by Fierce Gales.
Birds driven before the wind are toss
ed about relentlessly, and they rarely
recover their balance after once being
caught by the gale Shore birds are
either dashed upon the waves and made
to swim for their lives or they are hurl-
ed violently against trees or other OBJ
jects and killed. Shore birds, when fac
ing gale, will take every advantage of
trees, houses and hills as defenses
against the wind. They will close their
wings and sink SO close to the ground
as to get the protecting shelter of a
hedge fence, and then swoop up again
with renewed Roadway. They frequent
~ advance before the gale by series
of side evolutions, flying at right angles
to the wind until they have attained con
siderable velocity, and then wheeling
about straight against the wind and
making some Roadway before it over
comes them. This operation is repeated
continually until the desired place is
reached. ~". ~ -
During our fall and early winter
gales cartridges and quail are quite fire.
quently blown out to sea by strong
hurricane, where some Of them have
been picked up by fishermen. In nearly
all such instances they are caught by
the gale when high in the air, and be-
fore they can recover themselves they
are hurried out beyond the shore and
dropped into the water. With their
plumage soaked with the spray they in
stantly become helpless and cannot
reach the shore in the face Of the wind.
On our inland lakes and rivers this is a
more common sight than along the
ocean shore.
When once blown out to sea, the
shore birds have little chance Of escape.
Unable to battle against the heavy
wind, they yield themselves to their
fate and drift about until the storm
subsidies. By that time they are likely
to be SO far from shore that they cannot
reach it again, and they either fly or
swim until they starve to death or die
of exhaustion. Their dead bodies, along
with those Of the hapless gulls, terms
and herons, are finally drifted upon
some shore, where the waves leave them
high and dry. After every heavy storm
hundreds of such luckless victims can
be found on the beaches of our Atlantic
coast.-Our Animal Friends.

TEXAS SNAKE STORY.

q Rather and Mexican Ahoat on .
Plank For Hours. s.
II have heard Of many men being
placed in odd predicaments, : remarked
Captain Jenkins, tbut one Of the most
peculiar situations that ever befell an
individual was assuredly that Of an ig-
norant Mexican good many years ago
near Indianola, Tex, at the time the
town was SO nearly destroyed by trop-
ical hurricane or cyclone. have heard
the story many times, although it hap.
pened so long ago. It was during the
extreme height of the cyclone. Houses
in Indianola were going to pieces like
SO much paper, boats were being wreck
ed, and it looked decidedly bad for the
individuals who were located in ex-
posed portions of the coast. It was
about this time that little Mexican
settlement on one of the coast islands
adjacent to Indianola began to go, to
pieces, the water having risen over the
top of the sand dunes and the waves
smashing the loosely constructed build
ings of the settlement into kindling
wood. Jose Baretti, one Of the inhabit-
ants of the settlement, was separated
from the remainder of his family, and,
elinging to a long plank, was driven in
settlement.
"When the day broke, he was out of
sight Of land. The waves had Gained
down and the storm was gone. AS he
cast his eye about in the early dawn, to
his horror he found the other end of
the plank occupied by an immense rat
tlesnake. AS soon as the snake observed
the Mexican he began to writhe and
coil in an odd sort of manner, and ap-
parently to make attempts to reach the
poor fellow, whose hair was then stand
ing on end in manner wonderful to
behold. The hours went by. The snake
kept up his antics, but for some reason
did not get any nearer the Mexican.
The unfortunate fellow was afraid to
leave the plank, knowing that he would
drown, and at the same time he was in
horrible fear of meeting death in a more
terrific manner from snake bite. He lay
on the end Of the plank with his eyes
fixed on the RATHER. In fact, they both
eyed each other, and.this they kept up
until midday, when a fishing smack
came sailing along on the lookout for
| oastaways.
''The Mexican was seen from the
boat, and in a short time was hauled
on board more dead than alive. He
pointed weakly at his kissing compan-
ion. The sailors on the smack killed the
rattlesnake and found that he had jam
med his tail through a small knothole
in the plank. The immersion of the
buttons Of the rattle in the salt water
had caused them to swell, and he was
unable to remove his tail from the hole.
To this fortunate circumstance the Mex
lean owed his life. The fact that the
coast islands contain many rattlers &C.
counts for the presence Of the snake on
the plank. by the Bye in New Or
