FAKE CURIOS.

A well-known curio expert states that
there are factories in Europe for the
manufacture of all kinds of works of art
that are likely to attract the collector.
Modern articles Of china are stamped
with old marks so c~leverly that even ex-
perts have been deceived. Arms and
armor are treated with acids which eat
away the metal, thus producing the same
effects as the ravages of time. Carved
worries are stained with oils to make them
yellow, and are subjected to heat to
make them crack. Pieces of furniture
have holes drilled to represent the worm
holes, and so on, until in time there will
be be very little in the way of curios
which are in themselves really curious.
Paris is one of the strongholds of this
class of forgers, while in Hungary there
is d factory where Dresden china is imi-
tated in a fair manner. There is, how
ever, one safe way, and that is to buy
through reputable dealers. Forgeries in
all works of art very rarely get into the
dealers hands. AS a rule they are sent
to auction houses.
Many amateurs have an idea that they
may pick up a priceless work of art or a
curlo for a mere sOng. That is the chance
for the forgers. They know all this and
work accordingly, and thus the amateur
is deceived. The spurious curio makers
haunt out-of-the-way auction rooms,
where amateurs look in with the idea that
nobody but themselves know of the room
in question. The sale takes place and
they come away with a gem, so they
think, and are perfectly happy until I'M
deceived. There has, c%uriously enough,
in this connection, lately been discovered
a disease which eats away bronze and
gives it a sign of antiquity. All objects
of antiquity fabricated from metallic
copper and it's important alloy, made by
adding tin in certain proportions, are La
BILE to be attacked by this destructive
c%orroding affection. Skilled artists of
these forged antiquities are known to
inoculate their productions with spots Of
bronze disease,

TRAVDLE ED ON LIVE FISH.

To ride a distance Of so yards with mill
lions of live fish for a roadway is an ex-
perience decidedly unique, not only for
the man who does the riding, but for the
animal that carries him. This singular
incident recently occurred in the vicinity
of Clear lake, a well known young resi-
dent of Lake county travelling over the
largest area Of stranded fish that were
ever left high n dry in a river bed,
Lynn Fraser is the man who made this
journey with fins instead of terra firma
beneath him, and Jake, his pet donkey,
is the animal who ferried him across the
way.
1t was from necessity. not choice. that
Mr.. Fraser urged the donkey into a knee
deep mass of piscatorial beauties.
He is captain of the City of Lakeport. a
trim little launch that steams it's way
twice daily between L%akeport and Bart
lett landing, transporting passengers to
and from stages that connect with Hop
land and Bartlett Springs. His home is in
Big Valley, in a region bearing the sui
phurous and inappropriate name of Hell's
Bend.
Returning form a hunting trip, Captain
Fraser followed a route usually frequent
ed by him, which would take him across
Kelsey creek. This creek empties into
Clear lake, near the base of Uncle Sam
mountain.
Arriving at the creek he found that it's
waters had unexpectedly receded, leaving
a vast mass of fish, that had come up
from the lake to spawn, lying on the peb-
bled bottom of the water There were trout,
carp, bass, pike, perch and blackfsh, but
the majority Of the fish were Of the vari-
ETY. known as "hitch," a fayorite food of
the Indians Whereabouts, who trad them
at the reservations for beads and calico.
They resemble trout and measure IL to IA
inches in length.
Now, there is no law for the prevention
of cruelty to fish. Neither was there any
road within three miles by which Captain
Fraser could reach his destination. even

DISCUSS POEMS AUTHORSHIP.
Question Is Raised in Paris as to Who
Wrote "LauEh and the World
Laughs"

The Paris Herald takes up the ques-
tion who wrote the poem beginning
Laugh and the world laughs with
you." started by recent letters to the
Herald. Was it Ella Wheeler Wilcox
or Col. Joyce? One writer asked the
question. Next day Col. Henry Maple
son wrote saying that it was composed
by Col. John A. Joyce in 1868 aud ded-
icated to George b. Prentice.
Mrs. Frank j. Scott contributed the
poem in full, attributing it to Mrs. Will
cox. Col. Mapleson then sent the poem
in full, which differs somewhat from
Mrs. Wilcox's version.
Col. Mapleson says 1t is in collec-
tion by Col. Joyce entitled Peculiar
Poems," published by Thomas r. Knox
q Co., s13 Broadway, New York, on
page 81, called Love and Laughter.
The question is whether either Mrs.
Wilcox or Col. Joyce is plagiarist, OF
Mrs. Scott mistaken?

ASKS FOR POINTERS.
Gen. Davis Wants Suggestions from
the Porto Ricans.
The Governor-General of the Island
Is Anxious to Get the Ideas Of
the Inhabitants Regarding
Its Affairs.

General Davis, who commands the
department of Porto Rico, is anxious
to get ideas from the inhabitants. He
has issued an order which reads: "The
commanding general, being anxious to
aid the people of Porto Rico in every
way possible in preparing themselves
for the higher responsibilities and
privileges of American citizenship, and
realizing that defects may be detected
and valuable reforms suggested by in
telligent persons in private life, as well
as those in official station, desires to
avail himself of the patriotic counsel
and advice of all good citizens regard
ing these important matters.
"He will. therefore, be pleased to re-
ceive suggestions from all who may
feel disposed to submit the same. re-
lating to better methods of admins
tration, the system of levying and col
lecting taxes, wise retrenchments in
municipal and insular expenditures,
improvements in the Jail system, cleo
ton of alcaldes, town councils, and
municipal boards, changes which may
be found desirable in the judicial sys
tenn, or which may tend to simplify or
expedite the administration of justice,
reduction and consolidation, if prac-
ticable, of municipalities, development
of the school system, improvement in
the law relating to marriage and di-
vorce, and suggestions relating to pub
lie morals. the regulation of the liquor
traffic. legal restraints upon Sunday
work and amusement. such as exist in
most of the states of the union, the sup
preston of vice. and all kindred sub.
jects of public concern
"Mere criticism of existing evils will
not be of value unless accompanied by
specific suggestions as to the best prac-
ticable remedy. Communications
should be clearly and legibly written
and should be addressed TO the COM
manding general. They will be regard
ed as confidential if the writer so re-
quests"

SNAKES PIETY PROVES FATAL
An Indiana Reptile Interruptins
Church Service Is Slain by
Deacon.

A snake got into Hanover township,
Ind, church Sunday during worship.
Deacon Arnold first noted it wind
ing about his leg, and in his lap
was its head, with protruding tongue.
With one blow Of the hand the reptile
was knocked to the floor.
The deacon then took out his knife,
with which he attempted to cut the
snake in two. BY this time there was
CONSERVATION in the congregation,
women were on the seats, the service
was abruptly closed and the men who
were not timid crowded about Mr.. Ar
mold. who was still saving away on the
snake. Such excitement was never be-
fore witnessed in the Hanover church.
Finally the reptile, in two parts, was
lifted from between the seats. 1t was
a blacksnake and lacked only one inch
of being six feet long.
