1T n said that dog in Milliksn,
Mich, possesses and uses daily . full 80
Of artificial teeth. Thedog II very old,
and 1t Is family pet. When It lost ats
teeth recently Its owner. according to
the story, had the local dentist make
the animal full set u teeth, and they
arc said to be perfect working sue
cess.
The old notion that southern wom-
en- are languid, feeble folk ought to be
diapelled by the act Of four women in
a suburb OF, Macon, Ga. A house took
fre during the night and the neighbors
gathered to help the inmates In saving
their effects. Four women carried
large upright piano from the parlor all
the way out into the middle OF the
street unassisted.
"A fox and q hunter together stalkedl
q partridge near Tyson. Vt, the other
day, but each unknown to the other.
The bird alighted in an apple tree be-
hind the barn, and the hunter tiptoed
around one side of the barn and brought
the bird down. But as the bird dropped
the fox. coming round the other side OF
the barn, seized it and was Of with his
dinner before the hunter could appre-
ciate what had happened.
The tail Of the crawftsh serves that
animal a. an oar. BY peculiar jerk
Of the tail the animal can retire from
dangerous object with almost incredi-
bic swiftncss. The tail is much more
effective in moving the animal back
ward than forward, q singular instance
Of adaptation to its situation, for by
means Of its tail it can withdraw into
its hole with such swiftness ns in an
instant to place it out OF danger.
The latest story of q wonderful
gold find in Alaska is OF lake whose
ted Is literally paved deep with gold
dust. The lake is 1000 yards long, 400
yards wide and $50 feet deep. 1t is fed
by water from glacier, and its only
outlet is little stream two feet deep,
but of incredible swiftness. The assay
Of the sand which sea captain brought
TO Seattle recently showed Ss to $40
cubic yard, and on this basis man
alone could take out 1000 a year.
The big white moose recently shot
in the Maine woods by q Mr.. Sargent, of
Grafton, has greatly interested natural
lists as well as sportsmen. tits the only
white moose ever seen in Maine, and
very few have ever been heard of else
where. The naturalists say it is, of
course, not strange that there should
be an albino moose, resulting from q
freak Of nature, as white deer and other
albino game animals are not uncon-
mon. But white moose are . great
rarity.

MARY ANOERSoN'S BEGINNING.

8shsarsing In the Kitchen Before . Lit
tie Negro Servant
In the south most of the servants
were negroes. Among ours was lit
tie mulatto girl c'nut-brown maid"
che called herself) whose chief attrac-
tion to mo was her enthusiasm for the
thcater.
One night in desperation l went to
her while she was washing dishes in
the kitchen and there unfolded all my
hopes. It was to her first acted, and
she gave me my first applause. The
clapping of those soapy. steaming
lands seemed to me . veritable tri-
umph.
Believing that tragic manner alone
would sufficiently impress the situa-
tion on the ''nut-brown maid," began
with hollow voice and much furrow-
ing of the brow: "Juli. wilt thou fol-
low and assist me when quit my child
hoods home to walk in the path of
Siddons. Kemble and Booth?" "Oh,
Miss Mamie, you kin count on dis pus-
SON, TO de Lor' you kin! Why. my
stars, what boss actor you is! But
you mus low me to call YOU maw."
and in trice she was gone.
A few moments later she reentered
the kitchen with my mother, who was
greatly surprised by my performances
in the fourth act of 'sThe Lady of Ly-
ons," which could not have been acted
in q more appropriate part of the
house. She, in turn. called the critic
Of the family, DR.. Griffin, who, likewise.
! was astonished, and made my heart
beat with JOY by saying: "You'll make
q good actress some day. Your scene
has thrilled me, and would rather
l.sve rough work and = good thrill than
any amount of artistic work without
it," 81
Spurrcd on by such encouragement
I worked harder than ever. often stay
ing up half the night to get some effect
while trying to look into the heart and
mind of the character under study.
After that evening in the kitchen I
read scenes or acted them nightly to
our small household, usually from
"Hamlet," Richard" or Schiller's
"Nfnid OF Orleans" - Mary Anderson.

cer1ul French mechanical impersonation of

sucn n1elke nature that the beholder mar
Vels that photography and electricity can
produce such results. All of the views

especially some of them, on account of
their being reminders of travel in America.
Inc children have not been neglected by
the enterprising management, and several
appropriate pictures have been introduced

Mistake of Member of Fire Depart
ment in Taking n Number.
Because of a blunder made by men,
Der of engine company No. Thursday
night in taking the number of a fire alarm
box Commissioner Wight, who has charge
of the fire department, has directed that
charges be filed against him. The charges
will allege neglect of duty, and trial will
follow. 1t will be recalled that Mr.. Wight
month or so ago, in referring to the mis-
takes made in taking alarms, stated that
he was surprised that any member of the
fire department should be unable to per-
form SO simple a duty, and that members
of the department who proved themselves
incompetent in such matter could not
remain in the service During the past
several weeks there have been number of
instances in which mistakes have been
made by different companies in taking the
number of the boxes rung. In one instance
engine company No. 3 remained in quar-
ters when box was sounded to which 1T
should have responded, while on another
occasion engine company No. was re-
ported to have gone to a box other than
the one sounded At noon one day recent
ly, while u o'clock was being rung, engine
company No. l. dashed down the streets,
under the impression that it was box in
it's district. No charges We're filed, it is
stated, the result of these mistakes,
but when Mr.. Wights attention
brought to the mistake of the man in No.
I company, ana the chlef OF the depart
ment suggested that charges be preferred
against him. the suggestion was approved
The mistake made by the member of No.
Z company on box 264, which was re-
ceived what is known as "the ticker"
the man giving the number of the box as
26, and his blunder being failure to catch
the third figure of the box, L. He is also
said to have made another bunder, through
his failure to switch iii the big house gong.
Had he done that the foreman of the COM
pany would have been enabled to have de-
tected the mistake before leaving quarters
The man admits making both mistakes, it
is said, but claims that there was such Il
long pause after the number 6 had been
sounded on the ticker, that he was under
the impression 26 was the box sent in. The
result of the charges will, it is expected, be.
reprimand for the offender, and the es-
adjustment of a precedent, which will be
in the nature of a warning to the members
of the department that mistakes in taking
alarms will hereafter be punished, whether
made on the house gongs or on the tickers

Military Departments.

The new arrangement and division of the military departments are of interest as showing the future attitude of the United States toward other nations. The encouragement is result of the compli- cations and possible war with Spain. That prospect impelled the president and his advisers to look around at our national defenses and see what was lacking. They saw so much that they began energetic measures to supply the need, and one of the first of these was the redistrieting of the eountry's mili- tary departments and the creation of two entirely new ones, so that there are now eight of these departments.
 The new shuttle and deal were made with view particularly to our coast defenses. Of the two newly created dis triots one is composed of the states firing ing the lakes and will be known as the department of the lakes, headquarters at Chicago. The other is to be called the department of the gulf and is composed of the states bordering the south Allan tic beginning with South Carolina and following the ocean and gulf coast around till it ends with the southwest ern border of Texas. Its headquarters are at Atlanta, which will delight the citizens of that ambitious town. The department of the east, headquarters Governors island, New York city, in- oludes the Atlantic states north of South Carolina
 On the Pacific coast the department of Columbia includes all the coast line from the farthest corner of Alaska to the northern corner of California, head quarters at Vancouver barracks, Wash ington. The rest of the Pacific coast line belongs to the department of California, headquarters San Francisco.
 It will thus be seen that of the eight military departments into which the country is henoeforth to be divided five are along our coast lines, north, east, south and vest

It is to be noted that the house com. mittee on election of president, vice president and representatives has report ed in favor of a joint resolution amend ing the. United States constitution SO that representatives will be elected every four years instead of every two years. If the resolution should pass the house, it would have to pass also the senate. Then it would be submitted to the legislatures of the states to vote whether they would have it or not. If it were submitted to the people at large, they would be unanimous in it's favor. If congressman were elected for four years instead of two, he could spend all the first half of his term learning the business instead of planning to get in Q second term, as he now does. Congress sional elections in that case should come in the off year from presidential COZ tests
