Hengers at Railroad
Station.

A man sat in the Reading terminal
the other day, says the Philadelphia
Record, so wrapped up in Boston
newspaper that he let his train slip Off
without him. When he found that he
would have to wait two more hours he
seemed annoyed, but, notwithstanding
his annoyance, he was kind enough to
explain in a loud voice to a couple of
uniformed officials how they ought to
run things at the terminal.
"You ought to do as we do in Bos-
ton,'' he said. At the stations there the
names of the cities and towns all over
the country that the trains run to are
printed in big letters on the wall, and
the seats for the waiting passengers are
grouped around these Names Suppose
I want to go to Washington. run my
eye over the walls, and when find the
name I'm after sit down near it in a
Washington seat. Then when a train
is ready the enunciator, as we call him
in Boston-I don't know what you call
him here-goes quietly to the people
who are in that trains seat, touches
them on the shoulder and murmurs in
a polite way: Your train, SIR Your
train, madam. Gate IL Now, that's the
way to do it. No shouting, no confu-
sion, no trains escaping without their
passengers. That's how we manage
things in Boston,"

CAR-RIDING MAKES HER SAD
1t II Because Mothers Ill-Treat
Their Small Boys BY Pulling
Them About.

II am always made sorry when ride

Chronicle of a woman, "to see the way
mothers ill-treat small boys. It is an
ethical cruelty, but quite as disastrous
as physical i'll treatment might be, it
seems to me. see poor little fellows
Of seven and eight, nice little men, who
would be manly if they were allowed
to be, pulled around in the cars, out of
the cars, pushed into that seat and out
OF it into another as if they were so
many little dummies.
They usually are very nearly that,
for seven or eight years of such push
ing and pulling are enough to take
all the spirit out of a small boy IN

A boy of that age ought to be begin
ming to look out for his mother and
finding seats for her. Occasionally a
sensible mother, who treats her boy like
a human being 6, is to be found, and it is
a pleasure to see the two together. The
boy who is dragged around like little
muff during the early part of his life
is apt to come to himself after a time
if he is not entirely ruined and then
he goes to an opposite extreme, is rude
and self-asserting while he is trying
to establish an equilibrium, and the
mother can't imagine what the trouble

DOG IN A DIVORCE COURT.
sharp-scented Bloodhound Mt
Bucharest Picks Up a Bit OF
Damaging Evidence.

A certain well-known inhabitant of
Bucharest is the director of manufac-
tory which, being situated on the out
skirts of the city, he goes to early each
morning, returning late in the after
noon.
The director was some few years ago
married to the daughter of rich mer-
chant. He also possesses a splendid
bloodhound, which had become very
clever in finding and bringing any lost
object of his master or mistress.
Little did the director, when teaching
his dog the trick, fancy to what pur-
pose he was doing it.
Among his intimate friends he reck-
oned a certain banker, and visiting him
one afternoon, accompanied by his dog,
he noticed it sniff around the waste
paper basket and then bring out from
among the scraps of paper green silk
handkerchief, which seemed strangely
familiar to him. He seized it and pock-
eted it, without the banker noticing,
and soon after took his leave.
The lady was packed off to her par
ents and proceedings for divorce COM
menced. She ultimately confessed to
having given. the handkerchief as a
memento, which the banker had thrown
into his waste paper basket to be found
by the intelligent bloodhound.

THE DOUBLE EAGLE.
As 1t Appears in the Arms OF Russia
and Austria Is Of Ancient
Origin.

The eagle, as an emblem of authority,
is so old~that it would he impossible to
clearly trace it's origin. It is found
upon the most ancient sculptures that
have yet been discovered, and was no
doubt one of the very oldest of the
totems, or tribe signs. The early Per-
sian empire appears to be the first
which adopted it as an imperial en-
blem. Among the Greeks the eagle was
the emblem of Jove. The Romans also
adopted the eagle as their standard,
and SO it became the token of Roman do
minion. When Constantine became en-
peror he adopted the double-headed
eagle as the insignia of his authority
over east and west. When the German
empire came into being in the twelfth
century this emblem was revived as be-
ing that of the Holy Roman empire, and
Rudolph of Hapsburg adopted it as his
imperial arms. It appeared the Rus
sian imperial arms in the sixteenth cen
fury, when Gar Ivan Basilovitch mar
ried Princess Sophia, niece of the eley-.
enth Constantine, and the last ct the
Byzantine emperors. -.

SIXTY-FIVE SNAKES.

lowed by a Thirty-Inch Moth
!; l. E err WrigRler. 4, +. .%s e. +

Prof. w. H. Gaar, superintendent of
the schools at New Lisbon, q small town
in Indiana, made remarkable discov-
cry in natural history a few days ago.
Prof. Gaar is naturalist Of recognized
standing and has many specimens of
rare animals and plants preserved in
his museum, but the specimen snake
just secured is the most interesting and
curious of all this collection, reports a
local exchange. ~ ...,s
Prof. Gaar tells the story of his cap
ture and his statement is corroborated>
by Frederick Dryer and John Boyer,
farmers, who witnessed the capture.
Following is Prof. Gaar's story: "The
other day atmy nursery killed slate
colored snake about 30 inches long, of
variety unknown to me. Near the
neck of the snake the skin was appar-
emily broken, and through this aper-
ture, which was a natural orifice, was
surprised to see a small snake wriggle
out, followed by four others. I enlarged
the orifice and discovered duct or
canal extending the entire length of the
snake. In this duct were 60 more little
snakes, making in all IS snakes that
were contained in the duct or canal
The sun was shining hot and the little
fellows snapped and bit viciously, but
they all diedsin a short time.
1.-THE canal which contained the
snakes must have been the regular ali
mentary canal, as there was no other
canal or passage in the body to serve
the purposes of assimilation. This
canal was full of little snakes it's entire
length, and each little wriggler was in
closed in an individual filmv sack"

ABOUT TIE CATFISH,
Is Not Yet Made Fully Into q Perfect
Fish-Some of It's Queer
Ways.

The catfish belongs to an ancient
type not yet fully made into fish, and
hence those whose paired fins are all
properly fastened. to the head, as his
are not, hold him in weu-merited scorn.
He has no scales and no bright colors.
His fins are small, and his head and
mouth are large. Around his mouth
are eight long "smellers," fleshy feel
ers, that he pushes out as he crawls
along the bottom in search of anything
that he may eat. As he may eat any,
thing, he always finds it. His appetite
is as impartial as that of a goat. Any
thing from deal lamprey or bunch
of sunfish eggs to piece of tomato
can is grateful to him. In each of the
fins which represent his arms is long,
sharp bone, with a slimp surface and a
serrated edge. These are fastened bv
a ball and socket joint, and whenever
the fish is alarmed the bone is whirled
over and set in place, then it sticks out
stifay on each side. There is another
such bone in the fin on the back, and
when all of these are set there is no
fish that can swallow him, says the
Popular Science Monthly.
When he takes the hook, which he
surely will do if there is any hook TO
be taken, he will swallow it greedily,
AS he is drawn out of the water. he
sets his three aspines, and laughs to.
himself as the boy pricks his fingers
trying to get the hook from his stom-
ach. This the boy is sure to do, and
because the boy Of the Mississippi val
ley is always fishing for catfish is the
reason why his fingers are always sore.
The catfish is careless of the present
and sure of the future. After he is
strung on a birch branch and dried in
the sun and sprinkled with dust and
has had his stomach dug out to recover
the hook, if he falls into the brook he
will swim away. He holds no malice.
and is ready to bite again at the first
thing in sight.

A Greeting to Dewey.

nation lifts her voice to greet him home
Who raised her flag where East and West are
one,
Where blends the rising with the sitting sun:
For this knight-errant Of the ocean foam
Are cheers from cottage and from marble dome
From sea to Is heard the cry. We'll done.
In living millions rivals you have none.
Recalling triumphs sung by Greece and Rome"
He does not boast an old ancestral name.
Nor have his Golfers heaped with wealth un-
told.
We greet him as a leader free from blame
A patriot tender hearted. true and bold;
For honor is a nobler gift than fame,
And valor more than silver. gems and gold
From pine plumed montains by Wisconsin lake,
From citron orchards by F1oridian seas;
Where white Aiaskas rills and rivers freeze,
Where Porto R:co's orchid-blooms awake;
From rocks of Maine. where hoary pillows break.
From Georgia swamps. whese jasmines scent the
breeze;
From Vermont valleys. green Kentucky ieas.
We greet with Iride our Nelson and our Blake.
Then make the greetings more resoundng still,
To him whose gaze was onward and above.
For they whose hearts heroic deeds thrill
Have found the White Ideal. like q dove,
And they who honor courage. faith ana skill
Have crowned themselves in browning him they
