A Tall Rat Story.

The London Field tells this story: a
rat was caught alive on board British
naval vessel in trap, and the beast was
thrown from the trap into the water
without being killed. \ large gull that
was following in the wake of the ship
to pick up scraps Of food thrown over
board by the steward swooped down
several times, cndeavoring to pick the
rat up. Once the bird got too close to
the rats jaws, and the beast grabbed it
by the neck. After a short fgh; the rat
succeeded in killing the bird. When the
gull was dead the rat scrambled upon
the birds body, and, hosting one wing
as sal! and using the other as rudder,
succeeded in steering for the shore.
Whether The rat reached shore or not is
the question, since the ship soon got out
of sight of the skipper and it's craft.

QUEER DIETS.

Cannibalism still exists in the Poly
nesian islands.
Ancient Romans ate caterpillars and
some Africans do the same to-day.
The Chinese dine off monkeys and
cats, while in many countries people
eat horsefiesh-Russia, Bavaria, Aus
tria, Prussia and France being among
them.
The natives of Guinea love to devour
clay and are pale, listless and ambition
less. 1t is supposed the clay contains
arsenic and hence the delight in eat
ing it.
Sick people frequently have strange
desires for foods. One man suffered 80
from gastralgia that he was on the
verge of death through starvation. The
smallest quantity of food caused ex-
IRENE suffering and all methods of
treatment failed. Suddenly he ex-
pressed desire for onions, which he
detested when in good health. He was
finally given n few onions and no bad
results followed. For three weeks
onions were the only food that passed
his lips and he got well.

Saturdays Virginia Enterprise

in the hills west of Washoe Valley.
At the time the local train passed
yesterday afternoon all the ranchers
had been called out and the railroad
employees we're being called upon for
assistance. Help had been summon
ed from as far as Steamboat. The
second growth and down timbers
were burning and houses in the val
ley could hardly be distinguished
owing to the cloud of smoke which
hung over the region. A large amount
of cut and piled cordwood has been
destroyed, but the loss cannot be as
certained owing to the intense heat.
The fire threatens to wipe out several
of the ranches in the valley and the
roar from the fire can be heard for q
great distance.

That large numbers Of our best citi.

Capturing the Philippine Music

Grim war has it's drolleries, as the
strappIng Washington volunteers
proved the other day when they cap
tured the Filipino brass band of 80
pieces which has been inspiring PHO
del Pillars insurgents to combat. The
most humorous aspect Of the affair
was the way some Manila Cinnamon
came forward and filed claims on the
instrument. In their thrifty fear Of
losing the instruments they made no
bones of the fact that they had leased
the instruments to the insurgents.
The Tagals are the worst enemies OF
the Cinnamon, and they know it, but
they will apparently rent their souls
for sufficient amount Of cash in hand.
But what will the northern insurgent
army do now without It's hired band?

CURIOUS TOWNS AND VILLAGES

Near certain quarry in Italy is a
town the inhabitants of which pay no
rent or taxes. They. are quarry en-
ployes. who have dug dwellings in the
face of a steep rock.
"A few l2ilcs from Ningpang-po, a
town of northern China, is large vii
lage composed of graves. 1t is desert
ed burial ground, which has been taken
advantage of by clan of beggars and
thieves, who eat, sleep and make merry
in their grewsome surroundings. There
are several similar towns in the Celes-
tial empire.
In New Guinea the village of Tupuse-
lei is most remarkable. The houses are
all supported on piles and stand out in
the ocean considerable distance from
shore. This is to protect the villagers
from the attacks of the dreaded head
hunters always looking out for victims.
Other villages in this queer land are
Perched up in trees for the same reason.
There is a town without a name on
Lake Huron. 1t is composed of 500 huts
During the summer the dwellings are
hidden away in the brush tenantless,
but when winter comes their owners
appear, move them out on the ice, cut a
hole through the floor and the ice and
proceed to fish.
Athos, on the coast of Macedonia, is
the most curious town in the world.
The peninsula is known as the Noun
tain of Monks. A score or so of mon
asteries dot the land and bodies of as
cetics, kind to travellers, but eccentric
to degree, occupy them. There is not
Il woman to be seen anywhere in the
shops Of the town. AS a residence for
bashful bachelors Athos is cordially
recommended.

BRYAN's POPULARITY.

The Chicago Times Herald, thick
and thin Republican organ. pays this
tribute to, Bryan: The same day
that Ex-Governor Hogg was carrying
Tammany by storm with his refer
enoe to Bryan, Mr.. Bryan was receiv-
ed himself with tremendous enthus-
iasm both at Atlanta and GAINESVILLE,
Georgia. Everywhere it's the same
story. The man seems not to have
suffered at all in the esteem OF his
followers by his defeat in 1896. True
he has found in several states that
the Democratic leaders consider the
silver issue disastrous one and in
those States the popular vote would
certainly be hostile to his silver pol
icy, but wherever he goes he meets
with almost fanatic8l personal loyal
ty. Very few American politicians
have been the objects of such gener.
al or intense devotion. -
What then will explain this extra
ordinary phenomenon? 1t may be
referred to combination of causes,
each potent in it's way. Mr.. Bryan
has character, person atty, sincerity,
intellectual brllliancy, eloquence and
the elements are 80 mixed in him
as to produce the best possible effect.
He is besides the leading exponent
OF principle which gives a remark
able influence where the principle is
held, while his character, gifts and
attainments secure for him the liking
Of the people who regret the princi-
pie.
At one time there was very natur-
al disposition to ascribe his pretige to
single speech, but the speech was
merely his opportunity. Since deliv-
ering it he has proved his power rs
Al oralor many times, and he has
stood the closer scrutiny of the pub
lie, which is attracted but not domin-
ated by Oratory, We have known
men even more brilliant on the plat
form, who have never got beyond the
part Of performers in campaign
show. With all their ability they
could not command respect because
they did not possess those moral quail
tiles which the American people de.
sire i'll their political leaders OF the
