FATAL AGE OF THIRTY-sEveN.

Many of the Worlds Great Men Have
uccumbed When Only hat Age.
The age Of 81 is a particularly fatal
age. An examination of the records Of
tie United States government shows
that more people die at that age than
any other after attaining their major
ity. 1t is also ascertained that more
misfortunes overtake persons at that
age than at any other time in their lives
and that few fortunate events befall
them.
An examination Of history develops
the same thing. At the age Of 81 a
great sorrow befell Aristotle, the death
of Plato, his friend and teacher, with
whom he had studied for nearly twenty
Years. This sorrow plainly showed its
effects upon his future life and to it
may be attributed the sad tone of his
later writings.
1t was at the age of 81 that Lord
Byron died of fever at Greece. As
Lord Beaconsfeld says he was greater
as a man than as writer and his loss
to the world was a great blow to it,"
Raphael, the glory of Italian art, died
at37, He fell sick a week before his
birthday of cold and fever and died on
that day, Good Friday. In him the
world, lost. one Of its greatest artists.
In music, like art and poetry, En-
gland lost her greatest composer at
the age Of 81. Purcell, the most dis
tinguished musician Britain produced,
died within a few days after attaining
his thlrty-seventh year. The regard in
which he was held in England placed
him on par with Milton in epic poetry,
with Shakespeare on the stage, Locke
in metaphysics, and Sir Isaac Newton
in philosophy and mathematics.
1t was at the age of 81, too, that En-
gland lost a military genius that she
regarded as of the highest rank and
promise. Prince Henry of Battenburg
died of fever in Ashantee in that year
of his life.
PASCAL too, died at 81, but why seek
more Illustrations? These are suite ent
to illustrate the fatality of the age
among geniuses. Where death failed
misfortune often befell.
So the age of 81 may be regarded as
the fatal age of all those after q man
passes his majority.

Court OF Mas~achusetts.
To the general court Of Afassachn.

the inventor connected with engines
that depended upon water for their mo-
tive power. The limit Of the monopolv
was fourteen years and the court not
only retained power to forbid exporta.
ton, but to prevent exorbitant charges
upon the public for their use.
The patent was issued in this form:
"Jenkes Monopolye.-At a general

Foo,tng a spider in His ParIor.

A most amusing and interesting eX-
periment Is in the reach Of everyone
who has a tuning fork. Take it to a
spiders web. set the fork vibrating
and touch the edge of the web lightly.
Mr.. Spider has the buzzing sound con-
veyed to him by the threads Of his
web. He will run to the center Of the
web quickly and feel all around until
he touches the thread against when
the fork is sounding; then, taking an
other thread along, just as man
would take an extra piece Of rope, he
win run out to the fork and spring
upon it, imagining that a fly has oeen
enmeshed. for the sounding Of the forR
against the web exactly Stimulates the
buzzing Of a fly.

Middle Glasses Who Want Better
Sleeping Car Service
In response to the demand of the
times the 0. r. & n. and its connec-
lions are placing in operation q much

ci6c coast service than at any previous
time. The largely increased traffic to
This section of the country has de-
manded all the improvements of latter

tion of this the railroads are establish
inc a service which is excellent in
every particular. Not only are the
wishes of the first-class passengers
served, but those who are travelling to
and from the East on second-class tick,
cts are splendidly cared for. There are

who were travelling on the cheap" OF.
der, in every meaning OF the term.
Now. however, there has been radical
change. With the better tourist sleep
ers in operation the class of passengers
has been improved, and one may now
travel upon them and enjoy all the
privileges of a. first class sleeper at a
greatly reduced rate.
Daily, on the o. R. s. N. Eastbound
fast mail, is attached one of these latest
improved tourist sleepers, model Of
beauty and handsome appointments.
The new cars are almost an exact
counterpart of the first-class sleepers.
One noticeable feature of the new
tourist cars is the absence of a smok-
ing apartment. The new cars being
built by the Pullman Company are not
porvided with smoking apartments,
This new departure has been taken be-
cause of the fact that most through
trains are provided. with composite
cars, which provide a smoker for the
sleeping-car passengers.

On the second day out one Of the
sailors on a White Star steamer had a
bad fall and sustained severe cut on
his head. One of the ladies on board
was very solicitious about him, and in
quired of the captain that evening how
he was doing. Rough weather came
on, and she was compelled to forget the
wounded sailor in her own suffering.
Four days later, when she emerged
white and weak. from her stateroom,
she saw the poor sailor with strip Of
plaster on his forehead. How is your
head?' she asked, kindly, as he passed
