HERRING BOATS.

Their Peculiar Zig - One of Them Sells
From Cornwall to Australia.
The fleets of herring fishing boats sail
ing out Of the ports of Great Britain
are grand seagoing craft, strong and
swift, and able to stand the stormiest
weather. They are usually rigged with
two stumpy nnsts and carry enormous
square lugssils, which have to be low
cred and raised every time the toats
come about" In Scotland and the
English and Irish ports they are called
luggers, but in the isle of Man have
the local name of "rickies.
In many cases the crews own the
boats. each man having share, but in
any case the fishermen have an interest
in the amount of fish sold and are paid
according to results. 1t is a glorious
sight to see these boats racing home aft
or u good haul, the first boat in having
the best market for the fish.
1t Is not uncommon at Tarbot, the
headquarters of the Lcch Frone boats;
Peel, in the isle of Man; Penzance, IN
Cornwall, and at some Irish ports to
see the fish taken away by carloads to

times when I'll unusually big catch has
oversupplied the market.
In many places during the summer
there are races organized by the towns
people and visitors for these luggers,
and the interest in the events is far
more keen than in the finest yacht
races Only recently Penzance lugger
was sailed by her crew to Australia,
and made the passage in wonderfully
quick time. The large boats are manned
by from 20 to 80 men, the weight of
the luasails making a big crew neces-
sity. In most cases the sails are stained
O reddish brown. and Distinguishing let
ters and numbers on the sail tell tc
what port the craft belongs - New
York Sun.

SHAKING THEIR PURSES,

Quay is not shaking the official
plum tree. Wanamaker has no
official plum tree to shake and
can't have till he gets into big
office that is full of patronage for
distribution, but both are jingling
their purses. Quay shook his
purse first. He stepped into pub
lie sight, by the announcement
that he is a candidate for re- elec-
tion to the United States Senate,
and that he has put up ten thOus-
and dollars to be paid as reward
for the detection and proof OF
bribery in the coming senatorial
contest. Quay's announcement
had hardly been made till Wana-
maker makes an announcement.
He says Quay has not enough
members of the Legislature to elect

THE only enterprise the news
raper men have not been able to
keep up with is that of Emperor
Williams rush into the Holy Land.
The three days journey from Haifa
to Jaffa he made in two days. He
wore out almost every one who at
tempted to follow him. The road
side was strewn with broken down
wagons and carriages worn out
soldiers and horses, and so rapid
was his movements that the news
paper men sent to write up his
movements could not keep up with
him and accomplish their work.
He's hustler. If his army and
navy has the rush of himself they'd
be ugly customers to encounter.
However, if William should be so
unwise, as to espOuse the cause of
Spain against the United States,
he'll find circumstance he did not
run across in his ride through
Turkey to the Holy Land. 1t is
hoped that his ride to the sepulch-
er of the Prince of Peace, has not
intensified his f.1atical feeling to
pose before civilized nations as the
War Lord, but that it has inspired
him with a feeling to help bring
about more peaceful state of
affairs among the nations of the
earth.

FALLING STARS.


in MiffiintOwn who remember the
falling stars in 1888. Those who
remember that thrilling event can
tell you, if yOu want to know how
one feels when they expect the
earth 10 be set on fire and burned
into ashes by millions of stars fly
ing over head as they did before
daylight on the morning of NOvem-
Der 13, 1888. They were not fall
ing stars but were meteors, that
had been disturbed and set flying
out Of their regular course by the
earth plunging into the belt of
meteors to which they belong.
But few people in 1888 knew the
cause of the "falling stars" and OF
course those who did not know
were frightened. Thousands of
people fell on their knees and took
to praying.
They wanted God to deliver them
from the impending doom. They
thought the Judgment day had
come. Many were scared to make
promises to lead better lives.
Every November there is more
or less of a furry among the meteors
when the earth moves among them
and those who know that, look
with delightful expectancy on No
vember nights for the ''fying, fall
ing stars" Last Sunday night
was the night when the meteors

on. In far off Oklahoma, the dis
play of "falling stars was grand
a telegram from Wichita, Kansas,
says: MeteOrs in showers fell over
a portion of Oklahoma. The
heavens were lighted up as if day,
and the noise made sounded like a
distant battle. When they struck
the earth an awful report was made
Windows in many houses around
Perry were broken out. Six great
meteors, none weighing less than
five hundred pounds, fell in a radi-
us of one mile and set the prairie
grass on fire. Two children of a
family named Henderson were kill
ed. They were asleep together
when the great molten mass crash
ell through the roof and crushed
and burned them to death. The
whole roof fell in, and the family
was buried in the ruins. a
brother of the children who were
killed had his legs and arms broken
by falling timbers. The father
and mother were penned in the
debris for an hour. NeighbOrs
came to their assistance and finally
rescued them.

Making It Easy.

Old John s. was q rural postman
in a west country district and in a
rather rough fashion was also an anna
teur dentist. On his rounds one day he
met a certain farmer about to start for
a six mile ride to town for the purpose
of getting an aching tooth drawn. On
seeing old John. however, the farmer,
distracted with pain, determined to test
the old mans skill as a tooth puller. A
pair of somewhat rusty pliers was pro-
duced. and after few tugs the tooth
was held up for the farmer to see. who
exclaimed:
"Why, John. you've drawn the wrong
toothl That is a sound oneP
II know that, maister, said John,
"but now I can get at the other handi-
er. "-Poarson' Weekly.

and he, Wanamaker, shakes his
purse to the extent of twenty
thousand dollars, and puts up the
money, to be paid as a reward for
the arrest and conviction of any
one who attempts to bribe State
Assemblylhan. From the way the
two men are shaking their purses,
it is evident that the one does not
trust the other, and that they both
believe that Assemblymen may be
bought like sheep in the shambles.

ample i'm his own family line, on
the matter of the treatment of a
foreign adversary. His grand
father after having marched into
France and located his army IN
Paris. refused to lift his victorious
foot from the PROSTATE French
nation till France had given him
the states of Alsace and Lorraine,
and a billion dollars in gold. That
was in 1870. With such a recent
national affair looking William IN
the face it might make him modest
enough to keep quiet on the ques-
ton of the United States holding
possession of the entire Philippine
group of islands. But outside of

THE Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company have put theater car
on their passenger trains. The
car holds 60 persons. Perform
ances will be enacted while the
train is ON its travels. Some re-
ligious people are now advocating
a church car for every passenger
train, SO that church loving people
can enjoy church services while
they are travelling on the railroad.
Railroads are for the accOmmoda-
ton of the public, and for the
making of the bread and butter OF
tine employees, from the track up to
the presidents office, and for dlvl-
dends for the stock and bond hold
ers. That is what railroads are
for, and the probability is that If
if can be shown that the attach
ment of both a theater and church
car will pay, the companies OF the
country will be glad to serve the
travelling public in that way, as
well as to serve the public i'll the
hauling of people, and the pro
ducts of farm and shop. The two
new features in railroad travel
would increase the demand for
theatrical performers and preach
