Bryant Had Caught Them All.

Mr.. Harold Goodwin, grandson OF
William Cullen Bryant, Is the owner
Of Cedarmere, the poets old home on
Long Island. Among the features Of
the place are m old trout pond and a
bers Of the household last summer, SO
the story goes, were approached by m
old man who wanted to know If that
was Bryant's home.
"Yes," was the reply.
"Well, there's rustic bridge around
here 1 want to walk over and n trout
stream I want TO fish up" he added.
He was told that he would be allowed
to do both. DO you know" he con-
\ tinued. my father used to fish here
with Bryant, and he said that those
trout were what made the old man
famous. If he had good catch, he'd
get enough ideas to write for a month,
and IL he didn't-well, he'd just scratch
his head and walk that rustic bridge
all night and for many nights and not
do thing"
"And you come here for inspiration,
suppose" said some one.
"Well, yes," was the hesitnting re-
ply; 1--WE come to trout for q few lines.
don't expect to get Thanatopsis.
but IL I catch q small sonnet it'll be
worth while"
Later In the day the old man was
seen walking silently by the house
without single catch, muttcring to
| himself. 1--WE come long ways to
find out IL that was true. and l be-
neve 1t. and guessed that Bryant
caught all the trout before he died"

TERRIBLE MISTAKE MADE.
The Healthy Eye of Thomas Stewart Re-
moved Instead of the One That Had
Been sightless for Seven Years.

MONTREAL, April 29.-Seven years
ago Thomas Stewart, then ten years
old, lost the sight of one eye, the blade
of penknife having been accidentally
run into it. DIR. Alexander Proudfoot
attended him. Recently DR.. Proudfoo
advised the removal of the useless
eye as the only means of preserv-
ing the other intact. This was
agreed to and the delicate task
was entrusted to Dr. Proudfoot, who is
assistant oculist and aurist to the gen.
eral hospital. The operation took
place at the family residence, and at
its conclusion it was found that a ter
rible mistake had been made--the
healthy eye had been removed. On re-
covery from the effects of the anes-
thetic the patient found himself blind.

The professor made deposit, and
proceeded:
"Have you noticed that our host is
very tall man? Like most men of his
height. he hates TO bend over. II the
stove were near the floor, he would have
to stoop down low when he whirled a
fapjack or speared q rasher of bacon.
Now he can stand up and do it with
ease. Your draught theory is no good;
the longer the pipe, II it is straight, the
better the fire will burn"
Professor" remarked the colonel,

money is gone. Long Tom told me, on
the way up, that his partner did all the
cooking, and he il man of ather short
stature" The colonel then paid his
compliments to the jackpot, and con.
tinued: Now, my idea is that the
stove heats the room better there than

The doctor greeted this theory with

are wild-'way OF the mark. Hot air
rises, of course, and the only way to dis
seminate it is to have your stove as
low as possible. According to your idea,

very small; it has but little floor space,
and none of ii goes TO waste. Now. if
he had put the stove down where we ex-
pected to find it, Long Tom could not
have made use of the area underneath,
as you see he has done. On all sides of
the supporting posts you will notice
there are hooks. on which he hangs his
pans and skillets. Underneath there is
a kitchen chest for pots and cooking
utensils of various sorts. What could
be more convenient? Under your or
dinary stove there is room only for
poker and few cockroaches."
The Judge, who had been listening to
the opinions offered by the others with
the same grim smile that occasionally
ornmented his face when he announced
that an objection was overruled, now
stepped forward and dropped coin on
the table. He then rendered his de-
cision as follows:
1T appears that none of you have
noticed the forest of hooks in the roof
just over the stove. They are.not in use
at present, but they are there for some
purpose. imagine that during the
winter huge pieces of venison and bears

were on the floor, it would be too far

colonel, who had stepped to the open
door while the Judge was speaking.
The old trapper put down the various

were loaded and came into the kitchen

at the group and then at the stilted

Jackpot on the table.

Long Tom, with grin that showed his
bicuspids; "you see we had to pack all
