A Timely Event.

The bell at the parsonage went ting
a-ling, and, as the dominic was in his
study and his wife getting the baby to
sleep, Master Harold, aged Z, went to
the door. On opening it he found a
couple, evidently from the country,
both young and bashful; but, after
locking at the boy a moment, the young
man queried lis the parson to homer"
eyes, said Harold "Do you want
to get married?'
"That's just what we're here for, "
said the prospective bridegroom as he
looked fondly at the blushing girl by
his side.
"Well, come right in, them said
the boy, ushering them into the parlor,
and when they had seated themselves
on the edge of two chairs side by side
he started off, saying: "I'll call pa, and
ma too. She'll be awful glad, for she
has all the marryin money, and I heard
her tell pa this mornin that she wished
some folks would come to get married,
cause she hadn't 'nough money to buy
her new hat. Chicago News

The Hour Of EincoIn's Shooting.


A highly interesting story is told to
account for the fact that almost every
wooden clock in America has its hands
painted TO indicate the hour of 18 min
utes past g. 1t is related that most such
watchmakers signs were originally
made by one man, who was at first in
the habit Of painting the hands to indi-
cate any old or young hour that struck
his fancy when he came to that part of
the job. But when President Lincoln
was assassinated he conceived the idea
| of commemorating the event by record
ing the hour and minute thereof upon
all his wooden timepieces, a custom
ever since perpetuated. There is some
thing striking and dramatic about this
notion of time standing still forever
after an event of such tragic signifi-
canoe. There is no doubt about the fact
that nearly all the wooden clocks do in
| dictate the hour Of 10 minutes past g..
You can see that for yourself. But if the
olockmaker thought he was thereby re-
cording the hour of the assassination
his intelligence was as wooden as his
wares, for President Lincoln was shot
not at Is minutes past s, but at about
10 minutes past 10.-New York Post.

Musicians Live Long.

A French writer notes that, though a
few great musicians have died young
to wit, Mozart at 35, Schubert at 81,
Bellini at 33, Mendelssohn at 38 and
Weber when he was but 40--a large
number have lived to be very old men.
Those who died between 60 and 70
years Of age include Bach. Won Bulow
and Rubinstein. Living beyond 70 years
came Gluck. Gounod, Handel, List,
Meyerbeer, Rossini, Spontini and Wag-
ner, while the great age of SO was at
tanned by Auber and others Dying at
more than so were Cherubini, Cramer,
Lachner, Palestrina, Rameau, Schultz
and Taubert. The average age of music
al celebrities is about 81 years.

Lfghsnfng's Assaults.

One of the best evidences Of the value
Of lightning rods up to date has been
afforded by the Washington monument
1t is capped by a small four sided pyra-
mid of aluminium, which metal, 30
cheap today, was very costly at the
time of the building Of the greatest
obelisk that the world has ever known.
This aluminium tip is connected with
the ground by four copper rods which
20 down deep into the earth. On April
S, 1885, five immense bolts of electrici-
~ were seen to flash between the monu-
ment and thundercloud overhanging
in the course of 90 minutes In other
words, the monument was struck fierce
ly five times, but it suffered no damage
whatever.
On June 5 Of the same year more
tremendous assault was made upon the
monument from the heavens, and the
result was fracture of one of the top
most stones. The crack still remains to
show what nature can do in the way Of
an electricai shock, but the slightness
of the damage is evidence of man s
power to protect himself from such at
tacks. The lisk is ideally located for
attracting electrical assaults from the
skies, and yef. #hile many times hit, it
has suffered oily once, and that time to
a trif1ing extent. II Boston Transcript.

DEWEY POSES FOR A PRIVATE.
The Hero Of Manila Bay thssfulJ Complies With
Volunteers Request

All the stories told OF Admiral Dewey
from the earliest date OF his career in
the United States navy give him credit
for affability and kindly disposition,
says the San Francisco Chronicle.
While a strict disciplinarlan, these
pleasant traits In his character always
made him popular with the men, and
while no one ever ventured 10 trifo
with an order coming from him. his or
ders are always so issued that they re-
ceive a cheerful as well as prompt
response.
The readers oLthe sketches OF Dewey
as executive officer OF the Colorado,
written by the ships writer and pub
lished I'm the Sunday Chronicle, must
have noted that an affectiOnate rela-
tionship existed between Dewey and
his men. He is evidently the same old
Dewey today-as amiable and kindly
toward all as ever. The exalted station
he now occupies and the conspicuous
place he holds In the public eye ana in
the hearts OF the nation through the
glory and splendor OF his achievements
In Philippine waters have not changed
him in the least. And an admirable
