A Fish Story.

A Lewiston railroad man, two
friends out Of town and a local bag
gagemaster went fishing one night and
early the next morning along the sinu-
Gus edges of Worthley brook, says the
Lewiston (Me) Journal. They lost
their sleep, walked thirty miles or less,
held their individual breath one hun
bred and sixty times by count at the
climaxes of the casts, and then came
home with one trout seven inches long
said trout having sheepish look in
its face at being the only trout caught.
Their friends chaffed them, but they
said they had had good time.
At dinner time they met and declar-
ed that they'd dine off that trout, that
is, they would partly dine off that trout.
One of them cooked it and put it on the
table and then, while he stepped into
the kitchen for the salt box, the cat
jumped up on the table and ate the
trout. They returned in time to see
the cat washing her face and picking
trout bones from between her teeth.
They were philosophers, and their
philosophy alone saved them. but 1t
was rather CALLING to think that the
cat, that had not lost any sleep, mad
not walked thirty miles, had not stood
the gibes and sings of the multitude,
should eat the fish.

"The" Hague

Did you ever stop to ask yourself or
your knowing friend the meaning OF
"The" in the place named The Hague
If you are looking for something that
will knock the aforementioned know
ing friend off his feet just ask him the
signification of the three letters quoted
in the headline. When he fails to an
swer the question tell him that the The
as it occurs in the instance cited is
simply the Anglicized form of the
Dutch word rs Gravenhaaz" or IS Ora
venhaze," either of which, in the Dutch
language, means "the counts hedge"
or "the counts grove" or woods. "
Originally the location now occupied
by the city of The Hague was the hunt
ing grounds of the counts of Holland.
About the year 1910 palace was built
in the grove. Presently a village
sprung up around the palace-still 1t
was called "the counts hedge" and
finally and lastly large city, which In
the Dutch language has its original
significance, but which in modern par
lance has been evoluted into "The
Hague. st. Louis Republic.

land at the present time, and almost
impossible to guess what it will be.
when better knowledge of the peculi-
arities of soil and climate and the
handling of the grapes will enable Call
fornia wines to command the same
price as the foreign product. But land
which will grow five tons of grapes to
the acre has definite and well"known
value in France and Germany, and
there is no reason why 1t should be dif-
terent here. 1t is worth as nearly as
possible $4,000 an acre in the Gironde
and on the Rhine, and though 1t could
not be sold for any such sum at pres
ent in this state. it will earn interest
on that amount. Thus the Vina vine
yard alone represents an. endowment to
the college of s8,0O0,000 and present
income of about half million year
This, it will be remembered. is ex-
elusive of the Palo Alto property, the
Gridley ranch, and the fifty-odd thou
sand acres of land at Vina not planted
in vines. If all the land in the three
properties which is suited to vine grow
ing were planted in vines it would rep
resent the enormous sum of $200,OO0,-
900 and an annual income of $11 ,O0O,-
600.
No university in America has any
thing like such an endowment. Ac-
cording to the college registers the
leading universities are endowed as fol-
lows:
Columbia ................. Slo,VVV'VVo
Yale ..................... IV,VVV,oVV
University of California -. 100000
Johns Hopkins ............ 3,00O,00O
The endowment of the Leland Stan
ford cannot be added to the list, be-
cause no one can tell its real amount.
The Vina vineyard represents $S,OO0,-
900 at present, with a possible exteu-
sion to over ten times that amount in
the early future; but no one possesses
the information required to appraise
Palo Alto or Gridley. 1t may be said,
without fearing contradiction, that its
resources are far in excess of those OF
any other educational establishment In
the world, and that 1t will never need
to deny itself anything, from library
to an observatory or a laboratory, on
the ground of expense. 1t is quite pos
sible that when the properties which
are devoted to its support yield their
full income it will find it possible to
abolish all fees for tuition and to re-
duce the charge for board below that
which pupil would cost at home.

The Stanford University.

The newspaper accounts OF the estate
left by the late Senator Stanford have
started speculation, as to the value OF
his endowment to the university which
bears his name.
That property consists Of three pieces
of land-Palo Alto, $500 acres, OF
which a large portion is under cultiva-
ton, being planted in vines which have
been found to suit the soil. Gridley,
%, 900 acres, which have been planted
to wheat, will probably be gradually
planted in vines, and Vina, $4,000 acres,
of which between 1000 and 5000 acres
are planted in vines. OF these three
the VIVA estate is, of course, the most
valuable. There are, in round num-
bers, 100000 grape-vines on the es-
tate. When all the vines now planted
are in full bearing the product will be
something like $4,000 tons Of grapes
per year; and the vineyard is growing
from year to year. A large portion of
the VIVA estate Is used for raising
horses of all the various breeds, and
other portions are employed as COW
pastures, sheep pastures, and hog pas
lures. 1t IS difficult to form an ade-
Quate idea Of the money value Of such

Expensive Society.

It is mentioned as an instance oil
what the fashionable world has come
to that a recent private concert given
in London cost the hostess $12,5OO. Ac-
cording to this figure entertaining ones
guests will soon be impossible, and So
ciety must inaugurate some new meth
cd Of keeping it's end up in that line
First-class artists over there ask sums
ranging from $1,000 to $4,000 for three
or four songs, but, fortunately, the
number of these artists is limited, and
those who employ them are painfully
rich.

Illuminated Buoy..

Another form of beacon for mariners
Of smaller dimensions, but hardly less
important, is the illuminated buoy.
These floating lamp holders, placed in
an estuary where the available channel
is often only u narrow one, bounded by
mud or sand banks only Il few feet below
the surface of the water, are Invaluable
to shipping, Hitherto the illuminant
chiefly employed has been compressed
gas, necessitating IA high pressure reser-
voir and COMPRISING machinery.
Mr.. Wigham, whose name has long
been known in connection with light
house apparatus, has introduced a min
eral oil lamp which can be fitted to
any existing buoy and will burn for a
long period at very small cost. The
maintenance of one form of lamp can
be kept up at Il cost of one penny for "a
hours. and as no COMPRISING machinery
is required this is the only expense
plus the original cost of the lamp. The
approach to port-such as that of Liv-
erpool, for instance, where a ship has
to enter through a long avenue of buoys
could by this invention be almost as
we'll lighted as a city street.-Cham-

Through ali time men of genius have
scoffed at and have ridiculed the at
tempts Of purse proud. old ''richesse''
to create superior orders of manhood.
Nor is this a matter for wonder. They
were and are ridiculous. Yet these at
tempts are repeated every hour. Con.
sidering them one would suppose that
wealth. titles. dignities, are talismans
which insure virtue and honor and per-
soual worth and beauty in those to
whom they descend. Talismans are
%xidioulous. and go are titles.
Nobility is Of blood and not Of Jar
eers. royal sponsors and christening
robes. Pedigrees, portraits and family
history when truthful tell as a great
deal about the nobility Of arace. Titles,
Quarterings and patents are worthless,
and the production of q great genius ia
in general as bad a sign as the produo.
tion OF q great profigate. Races that
produce geniuses should be avoided.
