From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Rouen, one of the principal cities of
France and the greatest seat Of its cotton
manufacture, possesses the Oldest public
clock in the world. The great Rouen clock
has held it's place in that city for $40 years
and is the pride of its citizens. Placed in
1889, it has been running without Interrupt
ton from that day to this, requiring moth
ing except cleaning and a few trifing re-
pairs of its accessory parts. The great
clock had so accustomed the citizens TO
look upon it's exactituGe as matter OF

a wire prevented it's sounding O'Clock

regulator than "feliot," an apparatus I'M
known to the majority of modern clock
makers The pendulum in clock work was
introduced in 1852 but so well satisfied
were the people of Rouen with the time

that ffty-three years were allowed to pass

A DANGEROUS CALLING.
Animal Trainers Are Always Likely to
Lose Their Lives.

Lose Their Lives.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
When you animal trainer perform
ing with ferocious beasts you may be quite
right If you imagine the man as a fearless
master of them; but if you think for an in
slant that there is no danger you are
wholly wrong. A trainer never confronts
the beasts and compels them to do his bid
ding without literally taking his life in his
hands.
He is so used to the danger that he does
not think of it each time, and he holds his
mastery of them by a sort of power that
becomes habit, second nature, as it were,
just as he eats his meals performs other
common employments Or, to make the
case more plain, he forgets the dangers
that surround him. just men in any other

hundreds of feet from the ground Never
theless the danger is ever present, and all
the more terrible because of the uncer-
tainty of it.
trainer must inspire constant fear in the
brutes. What power for harm there is in
the elephant, for instance! One swing OF
that powerful trunk, and he could crush the
life out of the man: but he is possessed of
an ungovernable fear.
Some animal trainers live to a good age
and never have an accident. They are alb
solutely fearless in their work, and yet
they may be no Drawer than you OF
when other animals are in question.
There was one trainer who gave Won
derful performance with number of ami.
mails in the one cage. He would take all
manner of liberties with the ferocious
brutes compelling them to do his bidding.
making them form pyramids and lying
down on them When you consider now
cat or dog will sometimes turn upon you
if not handled just so you must realize
what tremendous power the trainer must
exert over such huge, savage beasts.
There were always a dozen other Keep
ers about when this performance was be-
ing enacted and they were armed with PTS
tolls. hot irons and rawh.de whips. one OF
the lions turned upon this trainer once, and
his arm was badly lacerated before he
could be rescued.

From Chambers Journal
WEIGHT is played on a board containing

The winner is the one who surrounds the
greater number of points with his own men,

cupied by the enemy. who Is then removed.
At the corners and along the sides a point

OF Benefit to Labor.
The Chevy Chase club, looked at from a
purely practical point of view, is of de-
cided benefit to the working classes. 1t
employs half a dozen men regularly to
keep the green in it's perpetual state of
velvety smoothness, numbers of small boys
find employment as caddies, the walters
caterers and other purveyors and employees
receive a livelihood from the annual dues
of the 3tD members
The expense attached to the playing OF
golf may to a certain extent be governed
by the player. The entrance fee of the
Chevy Chase club is s25 and the annual
dues s3o-not a large sum truly. when one
considers the benefit to health, both OF
mind and body. The absolute relaxation
from business cares and the good, healthy
bodily fatigue resultant from game OF
golf is sure cure for insomnia and all
