ga little boy in the neighborhood Of
Bishop Brooks home in Boston was
one day mischievously ringing door
bells and running away before the
doors were opened" says a writer in
The Ladies' Home Journal. I'm pur-
suit of this amusement he ran up the
steps of the bishops residence, and the
bishop, happening to be in the hall
ready to go out. opened the door quick
ly, before the boy had turned to de-
scend the steps. The child was so star
tied by the sudden appearance of the
good man. who had a kindly smile for
all children, that he calculated: Why,
Philips Brooks! Do you live hereY In
spite of the misdemeanor the bishop
could not find it in his heart to scold
the little fellow. He also had been a
bop."

Chinese porcelain was common in
Europe for 400 years before German
potter succeeded in finding out the
process of making it. This Chinese
pottery is scattered all over the world
and everywhere valued, but nowhere
was the distribution more curious than
In western Canada. Early in the nine
teenth century Chinese junk was cast
away on the Pacific coast of America
just south of Vancouver island, and its
cargo of willow pattern plates fell into
the hands Of the Hudson Bay compa-
ny's officers. Still in the remotest trad
ing posts of the fur traders few fine
specimens remain.

among the cattle of the swamp lands
along the Mississippi. From July to
mid September blood sucking insects
mosquitoes, flies, gnats and so on-are
so bad there cattle are sometimes in
danger of their lives. So are people,

TRIED TO BREAK JAIL.
A Dastardly Attempt to Regain Liberty by
Eddy County Prisoners.

A daring attempt to break Jail was
made at Carlsbad last week. One Of the
prisoners in the Eddy county Jail asked
the jailer, Richard Wicker, for a match.
AS he passed it through the bars his
arm vas grasped by those inside the
cell, and he vas drawn to the grating,
where his other arm was pulled through
and a rope passed over his head. He
was told that unless he unlocked the
door and accompanied his captors out
of town he would be s%trangled. They
released one arm and he unlocked the
upper lock, but told them that he could
reach the lower one unless they
slackened the rope. AS they did so he
tore his left arm loose, and by a quick
movement threw the rope off from
around his neck and jumped back. AS
soon as he recovered the felons were
placed in heavy irons.
