Fire insurance companies have all
sorts of experiences, and their officers
can tell many curious stories. One of
the queerest fires fell within the bust
ness of the Connecticut Fire Insurance
company of this city, recently. A
house was set on fire by a bathtub, and
the bathtub was set On fire by a poul-
tice. A man in a western city was suf-
fering from a bad cold, and his wife,
at the doctors orders, prepared a poul-
tice for his chest. When she started
to put 1t on it proved too hot. Ac-
cordingly, she took 1t to the bathroom
and set 1t into the bathtub to cool.
This happened to be a fine tub lined
with c~elluloid, which served as a sort
of enamel. The heat Of the poultice
started the celluloid a-going, and the
burning tub set things going general
ly. The department was called out,
and the house was we'll wet down, for
which the company had to pay. This,
SO far as known, Is the first instance
on record where a bathtub set a house
on fire or where a poultice kindled a
bathtub.-Hartford Courant.

The monkeys in the vicinity Of Hard

they are supposed to have contracted

termination of the monkeys, with a
view of putting an end to the disease
80 far as they are concerned, might
clash seriously with the religious views

A BURDENS

From the Evening News, Detroit. Mica.
The women Of to-day are not as strong as
their g~rand1nothers. They are bearing o
burden In silence that grows heavier day by
day that is sapping their vitality and cloud
ing their happiness.
Mrs. Alexander B. Clark, of AT Michigan
Avenue, Detroit, is a typical woman Of to-
day. A wife with such ambition as only q
loving wife can have. But the joys Of her
life were marred by the existence of disease.
Suffering as thousands of her sisters have
suffered, she almost despaired of life and
vet she was cured.

MATRIMONIAL GUESsEs.
eRecuYntions ON the Popularity of
the Month of June
Among brides.

June, the month Of roses, Is also the
great matrimonial month in New York.
Tne board of health statistics for the
past year show this, for the number
Of marriages effected in June is larger
than the record of any other month.
November pushes it hard for first place,
bat June carries off the prize and is
therefore entitled to add orange blos-
some to its beautiful robes of roses.
The fewest marriages take place in
August, says the Sun.
Nature is all a-smile in June. The
summer girl is in her glory. Seaside
and mountain wear new garbs Of joy.
Vacations begin. We don straw hats
and tan shoes and negligee shirts and
feel freer, happier and more hopeful
opening summer Ehrills us and it is
only the proper caper that, under the
circumstances, the love to which our
young mems fancies turned in spring
should now blossom into matrimony.
The falling off Of marriages in Au-
gust is probably due to the summer
young mans bankrupt condition after
tae gay out-of-town season. as the in
creased number of marriages in No
vember is probably due to the fore
handed wisdom which prompts him to
marry in time to save the Christmas
gift he would have to make his wife
If she were still only his best girl.

STORES UP LIGHT.
Certain Queer Substances Which
Act On Sensitive Plates
in the Dark.

DR.. W. j. Russell, a prominent scien-
tifc man, has discovered that certain
substances placed in juxtaposition to a
highly sensitive Photographic plate in
complete darkness will become pic
tured upon the plate DR.. Russell found
that polished piece of zinc, after four
or five hours contact with a sensitized
plate, has, as he paradoxically puts it,
photographed itself without the aid OF
light, showing lines scratched on the
zinc, flaws, etc. Several other metals,
wood, silk, straw, and other substances,
also photograph themselves in darkness
in the same manner. Actual contact
with the plate is not necessary, says the
London News.
In some instances In the course OF
the experiments, screens were inter.
posed between the substances to be
photographed and the plates, but thi.
had no effect on the results. One series
Of experiments produced a curious re.

GREELEY AS AN ORATOR.
The Famous Editor Had Many Pc
culinpities, But Always Said
Something Good.

NJ. Greeley was not an orator in any
scholastic sense. He had poor and
somewhat squeaking voice; he knew
nothing of gestures, and he could not
take an orators pose, which'adds such
emphasis to the matter and argument
to be set forth. Not all his years of
practice on the platform and on public
occasions ever changed his habits and
methods as a speaker, and he ended as
poorly equipped in the respects named
for the vocation as when he began. But
he had one prime quality, without
which all the others are exploited in
vain. He invariably had something to
say, and he said it in such clear and
wholesome English, with such SINGER
ity, that he was an orator in spite of all
the rules, says Harper's Magazine.
To state it briefly, of all the eminent
speakers have introduced-and more
than once-there was not one who gave
better satisfaction. different and nota-
BILE as they were, than Horace Greeley.
AS consequence. he came to me often
est, and wore the best. We might or
might not agree with some of his Pc
culiaf premises, as when he says; The
moment a drop of alcohol is received
into the human stomach that moment
the stomach recognizes a deadly enc.

and Illuminated his theme.
