Tame Butternie. for Pets.

Women have had all kinds of pets
from time immemorial, but perhaps the
strangest of all fancies in this direc-
ton is the latest news which comes to
us from Paris, that two ladies have sue
ceeded in tanning dozens of butterflies.
These little insects eat from their mis-
tresses' hands, alight on them and
show no fear of any kind. They are
certainly pretty pets, and well become
the airy, futtering sweetness of the
typical woman's nature. The summer
girl during the dull days of the week,
from Monday morning until Saturday
noon, may in this new fad find a means
of diversion, tanning her butterflies in
preparation to series of fetching

chart table in the middle, cushioned
transoms around the sides, and sew

large windows instead of the usual
ports, SO that we had an uninterrupted
view of everything that was going on.
While I smoked an after-dinner cigar

through our quarters, the strange and
rapid succession of events that had
resulted in my being bound for the
luost forgotten corner of the earth's

EMORY wINsHIP, HERO
n Brave Young Georgian Who Fell
with Five Bullets, Bat Saved
the Battalion.

There is pretty story told in pri-
tate letter received by a naval officer
in Washington of a young man who
held an entire regiment of the enemy
at bay while his companions to the num-
Der of 125 were pursued by an over
whelming force of the enemy, and at
last were enabled to enter their boats
and seek safety. This gallant young
man, who fell pierced through the body
by five bullets from the savage Fill.
pinos, is named Emory Winship, assist
ant engineer in the navy. He halls
from Georgia and was graduated three
years ago at the naval academy. Dur.
ing a reconnaissance by party of men
from the Bennington at Malobon young
Winship was sent ashore in charge Of
the steam cutter conveying three open
boats laden with large landing party,
and with two men was left in charge of
the launch. The landing party foolish
~ advanced from the shore without
throwing out scouts or exercising the
usual precautions, and was surprised
and set upon by an overpowering force
of natives, who compelled the Ameri-
cans to hastily retreat in order toward
the shore, pursued by the yelling horde.
Winship realized at once the situation,
and, unlimbering the revolving cannon
of the steam launch, Immediately be-
gan to play it upon the advancing ma
tives. He was fired at by whole bat
talon of the enemy, but unflinchingly
he kept his eye on the sight bar and
his finger on the trigger and main

had fallen dead and the Americans were
safe in their boats. Then young Win

body 1t is believed that he will re-
cover. Commander Taussig said that
but for Winship it is clear none of the
party would have escaped.-Chicago

and able thoroughly to enjoy all H.
good things in it, yet suppose we are
likely to keep on drudging for some
one else as long as we live. In the
long run tie fellow who persistently
drudges comes out ahead, and then
he's too. old to enjoy his good fortune.
1t takes a young man to appreciate
the things that money will buy. Now
why can't we strike bit of luck some
where, find buried treasure or some
thing of tie sort, and then live like
princes in London or New York, in
stead of frying our gizzards out in
the East Indies? Isn't there a fairy
godmother that we might propitiate?"
"M-m-m, don't seem to remember
any in my family. But, speaking Of
treasure, aren't we sailing over pretty
much the same track as that followed
by the old galleons?"
That's right; same track, to mile.
Tomorrow morning I'll show you
Port San Jacinto, on the island of
Ticao, where they used to wait for
favorable wind in eating through the
San Bernardino passage. Anson's
ships watched for them just outside
The 'Embocadero,' as it is called in
Spanish. and they all stopped at the
Ladrones for pigs and water on the
voyage across"
"Well, weren't they usually loaded
with a pretty rich cargo?"
"Rich! Why, man. the Acapulco gal
Icon brought between two and three
millions-in silver dollars, gold doub-
looms, and indigo-to Manila, once or
twice every year. You see, the junks
used to come down from Hong-Kong
"a March or April. loaded with silk bro
cades, fine linen, gold ornaments and
Jewels, which the Manila Spaniards
bought and, after keeping what they
wanted for personal use. shipped to
Acapulco on speculation. Mexico was
viceregal province then. and the
Philippines was subdependency. The
return galleon brought the proceeds
of these speculations; though. as the
bcletas. or shipping permits for trans
portaticn space, were issued by the
gobernadors for revenue, they prac-
tically amounted to Philippine SUBJ
sidy."
That's about as I remember It,.
There were a good many galleons
wrecked on the coral islands, weren't
there?"
Lots of them; they were great I'M
wieldy tubs, always loaded beyond
their carrying capacity. And, by the
way, that reminds me of an instance
which i happen to know about, more
or less directly. Last voyage, Padre
Julian, who has been in charge of the
mission on Saipan for 30 or 40 years,
came home with me. The old chap
is good deal of student, and has
the history of these islands at his
finger-ends-best judge of rum and
sherry ever saw. used to fill him
up with good liquor, just to see him
enjoy it and hear the stories he told
when the stuff got into his blood"

QUEER CONFERENCES.
Some of Them Read Very Strangely
But Are None the Less
True.

This is little world in which we live
and the people most certain of this are
those who have experienced strange
condolences which seem almost i'm
possible. Harry Bradshaw, executive
librarian of the Cambridge university
library, had strange adventure in the
Paris library. A book had been lost for
nearly century and Mr.. Bradshaw
went over to see if he could discover it.
Search was fruitless, though there was
a strong presumption as to the part of
the library where it would be found.
He stood one day in one of the recesses
of the library, describing it's probable
appearance to the librarian, "about the
height, thickness, and similar binding
to this" said he, taking book out of
the shelves.
1t was the missing book.
The stories of strange coincidence in
the matter of the recovery of lost prop
erty are legion. Two years ago lady
staying at Long Branch lost gold ring
while bathing. A reward was offered
and all the boys of the place raked the
whole shore up in search of it. But it
was never found. The next year the
lady was at Long Branch again, and
while reading on the shore, never look
ing for the ring or thinking of it, she.
turned it up accidentally with her para
sol.
A woman out bicycling lost jeweled
scarfpin which she much valued. She
did not miss it till the end of her Jour-
ney, and as she had ridden 20 miles the
prospect of finding it seemed small.
She, however, gave notice of her loss to
the police. On her return journey, when
about mile from home, she punctured
the tire of her machine, and, on dis
mounting to discover the cause, found
the pin sticking in the tire.-N. Y. Tele-

chronic somnambulism, the inhabitants

Chilled Rice.

Dishes CT iced and of chilled rice
are common enough in French cook
cry, but are seldom seen on American
tables, though cold rice buildings are
a common dessert, and every child has
learned to eat cold rice and milk for
a summer supper. The difference be-
tween. chilled and iced or a merely
cold dish is plain. A chilled dish must
be packed in ice until it is ice cold, but
not partially frozen. as an iced dish
should be. A cold dish means one that
has merely lost it's heat. Most dishes
that are served cold are better for be-
ing chilled, though. of course. there
are many things, like bread and pas
tries, that are better cold, and which
it would be absurd to chill. Coarse
boiled grains, like oatmeal or crushed
wheat, are not properly served chilled.
although they are often recommended
to be served in this way.-Cincinnati
