A letter Hard to Rcnd.

i.l& w 1ktrSlNl 80"
Cleveland Plain Dealer: Not long ago q
Cleveland man received a letter from a
lawyer. 1t reached him in the afternoon,
and when he glanced 1t over he found
that he couldn't make head or tail to It,.
It was only a brief little note on a slip of
paper, but it held that mans close atten-
ton for an hour or more.
Well, by George" he said, this beats
me-: IT certainly did, for when 1t was time
to so home he was still studying on it.
he thrust the puzzler in his pocket and
sought the homeward-bound motor. Right
after dinner he took the letter out and
went. 10 work on 1t again. Pretty soon his
wiz, n6o wanted ho,b to know what he was doing.
But She Insist insisted %e: and II iln aaiH i he showed
her the note. She looked It over with
many Dear. dears' and We'll, wells

Sc the man Of the house put on his hat
ner, where the red and green lights
glared behind the big windows.
Hello, immersion" he said, "can you
make this out?'
And he handed him the lawyers note.
The druggist took 1t and glanced 1t over.
Ihen he went a little closer to the nearest
gas e,n burner and looked at it again. After

me store and disappeared behind a parti-
ton. The man who waa thirsting for in
formation wondered at this a little, but he
somehow connected the druggists disap-
pearance with a possible desire to use a
magniffying glass. Presently the druggist
came back again. He had a good sized
bottle in his hand.
There you are" he said.
What's this?' inquired the other man.
Why. your tonic said the druggist.
Who said anything about a tonic?"
Why, you handed me the prescription"
The prescription"
Yes. here it is"
WHAT" roared the other man. "Did
you think that was a prescription? It's a

Successful Mind euro.

There is a very long. ravenous snake
a. police headquarters. -tescaped from
a Decatur street dime museum come
weeks ago and hibernuted for awhile in
the house Of q Russian jew. where it
was captured alive by y patrolman who
had heard the hoarse screams of the
Mortified Hebrew.
The snake was confined in a large
cracker box with a glass top. 1t had
been fattened on rats and mice since its
incarceration and its size is scarcely
less than a mans thigh. For awhile
last night tho box containing the SER
pent was placed inside the railing
whence luckless incbriates are led be-
fore being conducted 10 a cell.
1t was rather early in the evening for
mature jags, but it was possibly due to
the virile quality of his beverage that
caused n well-dressed young mar to
tack across The asphalt like II schooner
in a squall and anchor in tho shelteriug
arms OF a man in blue and brass. He
was patrolled to the station-housc.
While inside of tho railing he caught
sight of the box containing the snake.
He examined the box critically, tapped
on the glass top with his seal ring aud
stopped far over to assure himself that
the writing serpent was real.
"Snakc! - big snake. boa c'nstric-
tor. Hic-hello. snakey. old boy. IN
dead OF to yer curves. Hic-where'd
yc git him-hello. snakey. old boy"
A number Of the policemen gathered
about the young man and the box.
They looked OF blankly amazed. giving
the intoxicant to understand that the
snake was beyond their power of vision.
Tho young fellow took of his hat,
scratched his head and staggered to the
other side of the room.

the fact that the United States at one
time at least during my life showed the
same spirit that Germany did in demand
Ing an indemnity at the point of a gun.
The Incident happened just after the close
of the war n was about the same kind
OF affair. The Brazilian government had
imprisoned or treated an American citi-
zen In some outrageous way. and the
American minister at Rio Janeiro. acting
on his instructions. demanded All intemn-
ity. He was put Off from day to day, n
finally from week to week. until he made
his duty or lose his position, so he said
nothing more about the matter. but walt

that indemnity was forthcoming in three

Nine. d'Aunet. while on a steamer
bound for Hammerfest, had her curios-
ity excited by the actions of ono of her
fellow-passengers, q tall young man.

panton. Several times a day the French
lady saw hiEl going into his state room
with a bottle. She supposed it TO con
tain something stronger thar water but
one day. when his door happened to
stand open, the mystery was explained.
The bottle contained water and the wa
ter was for a bouquet small bunch of
roses aud geraniums. The young man
must be either q lover or a savant, she
said to herself. Once. in a severe storm,
she saw him holding the flowers in his
hands for fear the motion of the ship
should cause them injury.
With all his care, one of the roses
IA SO shaken that some of the petals
fell. They lodged upon a corner Of the
French lady's cloak.
Madam" said the young man, in
English, "have the goodness not to move
till l gather them up;" and he picked
them up carefully aud put them into n
box.
"Have you still far to go with your
bouquet" asked the lady.

Remember, madam, that my mother
has not seen q rose for ten years. She
is not Norwegian. but English. Poor
mother! How this little noscgay will
remind her of her own beautiful coun-
try. where roses grow out OF doors!"
When Nine. d'Aunet reached Ham
merfest she understood better how to
appreciate the mans solicitude. She
met a very rich merchant. who was re-
ported to have n garden, aud one day
he invited her to come and see it. She
wen and found to her surprise nothing
but a few square yards of black earth
without a blade Of anything green with

To her it looked like q bit of unpaved

"Yes, madam"

"But why have you brought ne to
see nothing but this black earthp"
Nothing, madam? Nothing? And
all this earth!"
Then the visitor understood. It was
the earth itself that was the treasure.
In Hammerfest, she says, flowers are
as precious as diamonds are in Paris.
One woman had possessed for many
years a rosebush which was the object
OF universal envy; and yet it had never
borne Il blossom. Another woma
placed before Nine. d'Aunet upon Il
table some potato plants. Their owner
hoped to see them flower and was ip

Deafness Cannot Re Cure

BY local application as they cannot reach

by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an nfamed condition of the

When this tube is ini1amcd you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result. and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's nor.

forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh. which is nothing but the in.

Crush Causcs a Panic.

Following the crash there was a
wild rush for the doors. At the south
door, where the majority Of the crowd
had entered, there was Il terrible panic.
Those in front We're thrown down by
the oncoming rush, shrieking and
fighting for the door and safety. Only
one-half of the rear door, a space OF
probably three feet, N open. In the
mad rush no one thought to open the
door fully and 500 people struggled
through the narrow space, the strong
bearing down the weaker. Within a
moment after the floor had fallen in
there We're not more than three per-
sons in the hall on that portion of the
floor which had not fallen.
Alderman Neil Cooper was among
the first to be dragged out Of the mass
of broken beams. He was quickly car
ried to an adjoining room and in a mo-
ment half u dozen more were keeping
him company. Several me lowered
ropes and ~endeavored to haul the
wounded out of the pit. From under
the massed weight of the broken
beams came cries for help. The win
dows on the ground floor were broken
in and the living and the dead were
tenderly passen to the waiting ambu-
lance.
An investigation of the wreck after
the catastrophe disclosed the fact that
n whole section of the floor had
dropped, the joists having been us
neatly cut off us though the work had
been done with a saw. The building
was an old one, having been erected in
the early %fifties, and of late years addi-
:::::@i stSr;%s had been placed on tile
old walls.
In the Grand opera house, which
adjoins the wrecked building, a panic
was Imminent, but was avcrted by the
actors and ushers, and the people
quietly left the building.
