Battle Between Two Grewsome Sight
 ostend Oyster Beds Ruined by Them
 A plague of the octopus is reported at Ostend and the age-famous oyster beds of that resort are in serious dan ger. This visitation is unusual, for the octopus is usually found in the gulf of Mexico, along the coast of southern California, or in Alaskan waters. Some Of those in the gulf measure as much as twenty-one feet across the body their arms stretching out Infinitely 1t seems, to their prey. They do not at tack men as a rule, but there have been many f1eree combats when an unfortun- Gte fisherman happened to hook one An ichthyologist has only lately made 6 study of small octopus three feet in diameter. It was placed in tank, and the scientist put i'll one finger. Im- mediately one of the eight great feelers came toward it, followed by the others These feelers, armed with powerful suckers, attached themselves firmly to the mans finger apd hand and made no further movement until he tried 10 withdraw it. Then they held all the tighter and the little mouth spoute5 forth its inlly fluid to distance of two feet. At last he released his hand with an effort and tried to touch the body of the octopus. As he did so it changed colors in rartd succession, passing from black to yellow, and then seemed to be all covered with black spots. Another octopus of the same size was placed in the tank, and then was a battle royal. The sixteen arms writhed and twisted, the water was stained black by the elected fluid. and 1t was thrilling sight <o behold the entangled feelers. wrapped around each others bodies. After little the weak CT of the two withdrew his arms, the other released him, and the beaten monster drew himself into a corner to 1urSe his wounds.

Nentuckaan Ihous Int the Episcopal Pre-.
 late Pfain Man.
 Not long ago Bishop Dudley of Ken. lucky went to preach in little town In the western part of the state. where there are no Episcopal churches. and only one, in fact. of any other denomf- nation The people are unfamiliar with any but the plainest and most simple church servicA and entirely un- accustomed to the vestments which the Episcopal clergy wear. The pastor of the "only chureh."a good, conscientious narrow minded man, hearing that the bishop was coming on certain Sum day to preach at the courthouse, told some or the pillars" of his eongrega- ton that he hoped they would not de- sert their own church to hear the Episcopal service. On the appointed Sunday what was the pastors surprise to notice half of his flock absent, aud upon inquiry he learned that the court house was thronged with the villag- CTS. The next day he met one of his chief supporters, whose accustomed seat had been vacant as the weekly service, and the pastor questioned him as to his whereabouts on Sunday. The man replied that he had gone to hear Bishop Dudley. What" replied the clergyman. Desert me to hear that bompous prelate!" You're mistaken in the man" answered the culprit. Bishop Dudley is no pompous pre- late. He preached in his shirtsleeves." Louisville Courier Journal.

SOUTH AFRICAN LAWS.
There Life Is Valued at Less rhsa
 Diamonds.


 "Kimberlev proper is built around a hole big enough to hold the entire white population of South Africa. This is the excavation above the Kimberley mine. made when diamonds were mined from the surface Nowadays shafts are sunk and levels formed, whence r9t blue ground is blasted out and haaied to the surface in elevators. The diamond is different from other precious stones, in that it is found in soft clay, while the amethyst, ruby and emerald are embedded in quartz This makes the diamond easy to conceal in the mouth, nose, and by swallowing. and every year the De Beers company gets from the workmen S2,000 ,00G worth of stolen goods. The inciina- ton to pilfer these stones is so intense that the crime is severely punished. h South Africa the first commandment is Thou shalt not steal diamonds For having diamond found or his person that is not registered man will get =2l years imprisonment. At Cape Town is a great convict station called the sBreakwater, where sons of prominent American families and English aris= tocrats join in lockstep with Lasears and Kaffirs. They have all violated the first commandment. In Kimberley 1000 negro convicts sort the diamonds under the muzzleS Of Martini rifles. They are kept in a separate place. The other black bcys live in a fve-acre in closure known as the compound The De Beers company controls the dia- mond market of the world Of the five mines-Kimberley, De Beers, Du Toits. Pan B0llfontein, and Premier-tae first two are situated in Kimberley and are the only ones worked now. The dia- monds produced in other parts of the world would not supply the city of Philadelphia. The value of the South African product thus far has been 5600,000.00O. The supply seems inex. haustible. "-Ainslie's Magazine.

THE SPORT OF KINGS.

they Were Too Much for the skipperAs
 Sentative of the Tradition.
 Hunting used to be called the sport of kings, but not many of the m ern crowned heads lEeep up the old tradi- ton. The Gzar of Russia occasionally assists at battue. but the thing bores him and he goes only cut of poiitenes5. The prince of Wales is q very good shot and is fond of saootisg, but his big-game days are over. The empsror of Germany hunts and shoots a god deal, but those who know him best say he does not much care for the sport. With him 1t is a matter of tradition the right thing for a royal parsonage to do. The king of Portugal, who helda royalties, is physically disabled from such violent exercise. The king ot Sweden never touches a gun. The sul- tan of Tur1 y cannot bear to see one, says the New York Commercial Adyer- tiser. lie king of the Belgians has shot only ence in his whole life, and then in very unkingly fashion. He wanted to have the sensation of killing without the trouble of going in search Of the game. So he sat in his arm chair aud potted at lot of rabbits let lose from bag in front of him When the smoke cleared away and his majesty called for his bag he had to be told that all that had been found was one tail and a certain small quantity of fluff He never went shooting again. Th~ king of Italy is the only real represen- tative of the old kngly tradition. He Is a mighty hunter and frequently throws up all the routine work without word Of warning, and goes off with one officer Col. Pazzi mbolini, to spe:d several weeks in pursuit of the game of all kinds with which the mountains abound. Formerly he established no means of communication with Rome, Neither Queen Margherita nor any o! his ministers ever knew where to find him for weeks at time. He might nave lost his throne in a sudden up heayal and known nothing of 1t till he descended to the plains. Or late, however he has become wiser. Now carrier leaves Rome every second day during his expeditions, bIingirg re- ports of all that happens.
 Runs Throngh IouisIassa Tract.
 An interesting fact in connection With the new overland train which the Burlington is about to put into service between St. Louis and Puget sound, by way of Billings, Mont, is that for nearly the entire distance of 2,500 miles it will run through eoun- try acquired by the United States at the time of the Louisiana purchase in 1904.

NEW CRIMES IN THE CALENDAR
man's Iawlsss Ingenuity Is Givins the
 Courts Added Trc ubie.

Courts Added TrC ubie.
 Under the laws of the land as they exist at present the theft of a lamp is larceny; it may be a Roman lamp or Greek lamp, an oil lamp or all electric lamp Whether it constitutes grand larceny or petit larceny will in certain states of the union depend not upon it's age or newness, but upon it's mar ket value. On the other hand there are a great number of modern crimes which could not have been committed in ancient days because the instru- ments for their perpetration did not exist. They are the outcome of mod ern civilization and they require new legislation. The tapping of a tele- graph wire is a modern form of high way robbery. In the old days the method was to waylay the courier on the roaG and to rob him of his purse or of his message. The formula of the modern highwayman is not Stand and deliver" but simply Deliver And he may get message from the light ming courier which may be worth more to him than well-filled purse. But there is nothing to be gained by indis- criminate tapping. It is some special message or information that the thief is looking for, possibly for it's effect on the stock market or on other busl. ness ventures, but the use of ciphes codes renders the tapping of telegraph in, ir1e Nf war, unless the code as well as the message has been stolen. For the tap- ping of power or light lines the mod ern highwayman comes in out of the rain. He can do his business better indoors by attacking the electric me- ter, confusing it's calculations and thus getting more current than he pays for. Such at least seems to be the impiica- ton of recent statutes.
 Lat st Addition to the scottish Foo.
 The latest addition to the Scottish Zoo is d vlacke vark or emgalla, direct from the 1ransYaal. It is an ungainly- looking animal, with long tusss and a portentously ugly head. One of the chief peculiarities of this animal is the enormous projection which Hanks the face on either side just below the eyes. So large. are these excrescences. and so deeply sunk are the eyes, that the creature cannot look behind it ln the usual manner of animals, and is there fore obliged to hold it's head perpen- dicularly to easta glance over it's own back. As it always Eods it's tail per. pendicularly when IL runs, the general effect Is exceedingly ludicrous.

A DEARTH OF MONEY.
Our Highly Prosperous Country Thus
Partially ParaIyzed In Its
Business Affairs.

Recently the world has been treated
to the ridiculous spectacle of highly
prosperous nation partly paralyzed in
it's business affairs by dearth of
money."-Chicago Record. 80
True, and if g. broader view is taken,
it will be seen that the business affairs
of the world are hampered in like man
ner. Was there ever better illustra-
ton of the folly of depending upon
the supply of gold alone to furnish basic
money! With the product of our sill
yer mines used also for money this
stringency could not have occurred.
Or, if instead of: issuing bonds to sup
ply funds FIR the Spanish war. $780,
100000 of treasury notes had been is
sued, there would have been plenty of
money and business affairs would not
be hampered by tight money mar
ket. The money clique is profting by
this condition, while Industry and com
lnerce are suffering from the folly of
letting such interested parties control
and run the financial affairs of the gov
ernment. .-Na ational Rural.

SAYINGS OF SAGES.

We seldom find any persons Of good
sense except those who are of our
opinion.-Roche.
To him nothing is possible who is
always dreaming of his past possibil-
ities.-Carlyle.
The whole world is put in motion by
the wish for riches and the dread of
poverty.-Dr. johnson.
One should conquer the world, not
to enthrone a man, but an idea; for
ideas exist forever.-Beaconsfield.
Never fear to bring the sublimest
motive to the smallest duty, and tue
most infinite comfort to the smallest
troubles.--Philips. Brooks.
Explain it as we may, martial
strain will urge man into the. front
rank of battle sooner than an argu-
ment, and fine anthem excite his de-
votion more certainly than logical
discourse. -Tuckerman.
When I think of talking, it is Of
course with woman; for, talking at
its best being an inspiration, it wants
q corresponding divine quality Of re-
ceptiveness, and where will you find
this but in woman?-O. w. Holmes.
We must not inquire too curiously
into motives. They are apt to become
feeble in the utterance; the aroma is
mixed with the grosser air. We must
keep the terminating grain away from
the light George Eliot.
. The greatest evils in human society
are such as no law can come at; as in
