SANDER PuBhshed About the Latter
Must Be Set at Rest

Must Be Set at Rest.
A new grief has come into the tur-
bulent life Of Emile lola. the distin-
guished French novelist. and it has
almost Frustrated him. Hitherto he
has only suffered for himself; now the
memory Of his dead father has been
attacked, and he is almost frantic. His
partisanship for Dreyfus in his battle
for honor against the Vaccinations Of
the army officials has brought this
sorrow upon IZola. 1t seems that years
ago his father. who was a skilled en-
gineer, emigfated to Austria and as
sisted in the construction of the first
railroad BULL in Europe. Having com
pleted this work. he entered the
French armL, served in the Algerian
division and retired in 1888 as a civil
engineer to Marseilles. The original
plans for an extension Of the Mar
settles harbdr we're prepared by him.
Others were chosen, however, to see
the work done, and, disappointed,
Francois Zola went to AK. where the
triumph of his labors was to be his
lot. The municipal authorities trusted
him with tie building of the great
canal whichpS bears his name. In
1S47 he-afAd suddenly. Now the enc
mics Of his son are declaring that
death was due to suicide in the effort
to escape punishment for ~defrauding
the municipality Of AK in the matter
of the harbor contract. To vindidate
his fathers name Emile lola now
AYERS he will devote his entire life. He
recognizes the difficulties in his way
the enmity Of the military power
but declares that he will never rest I'M
til all suspicion Of ~misfeasance shall
be blotted from the name Of a father
whom he dearly loved.

Beds are quite an innovation in
Russia, and many well-to-do houses
are still u%nprovided with them. Peas
ants sleep on the tops of their ovens;
middle-class people and servants roll
themselves up in sheepskins and lis
down near stoves; soldiers rest upon
wooden cots without bedding; and it
is only within the last few years that
students in schools have been allowed
beds.

The natives Of Gomera, one Of the
Canary Isles, converse with n an
other by whistiing on their fingers,
and, If you understood these different
whistles. you would find it possible to
understand a message a mile of. Each
syllable Of a word has its own peculiar
sound. GOmera Is cut up by a number
OF deep glens, which are not bridged
over. and, as it would otherwise be
impossible for the inhabitants on sepa-
rate sides Of a glen to talk with one
another without going a long way
round to meet, they have hit upon the
whistling device as the best means OF
communication.

Cleveland Loved to Lose Himself In
Chesapeake nay.
Ordinarily the president while on
vacation maintains communication
with the white house and with the de-
partments at Washington, but Mr..
Cleveland used to go away every now
and then for a week, during which he
could not be reached by mail or wire.
though he might have been hunted up
in an emergency by a dispatch boat
or a search party. He loved beyond
all things to lose himself in the great
Chesapeake bay, which has been called
the presidential game preserve be-
cause of the fondness which many Of
our chief magistrates have had for
seeking recreation there in the pur-
suit Of canvasback ducks, snipe, and
other game, as we'll as fish. Mr..
C%leveland's favorite amusement was
duck hunting, and more than once he
found leisure for a spell of waterfowl
shooting with his friend Joe Jefer-
son on Orange island--a piece Of real
estate belonging to the famous actor,
which is the crater Of an extinct vol
cano, much frequented by birds. Ben
jamin Harrison was likewise a sports
man and a good shot, Notwithstanding
his unfortunate adventure with a
Maryland pig which he mistook for a
raccoon and killed. He offered to pay
for the unfortunate animal, but the
negro who owned it declined to re-
ceive compensation, considering it a
sufficient honor that his porker should
have been a target for presidential
shot. Kings and queens are apt to
travel extensively while on vacation,
but there is an unwritten law which
forbids the presidents Of the United
States to go out Of the country-that
is to say, beyond the territorial bor-
ders or pass the three-mile limit at
sea. On one occasion, when Mr.. Ar
thur breakfasted on board of a Brit
ish man-of-war, question was raised
as to the propriety of his doing so,
inasmuch as the vessel was lawfully
a part of foreign soil. He was by ma
ture a sybarite, and made every eff
fort to mitigate the cares Of his great
Office, on one occasion escaping to the
Ad%irondacks and cutting OF all n
nection between himself and civiliza-
ton for a fortnight.-Rene Bache in

drouehis which have prevailed IN
many neighborhoods. There Is time
vet. however, for much devastation In
this way unless great care is taken.
Sparks from locomotive engines have
been credited with starting many Of
these forest fires. and to a certain x
tent this belief Is probably well
founded. But II some experiments
conducted by a western college are to
be relied upon the locomotive is a
much less fruitful source than is gem
orally believed. The experiments con
sisted in setting pans covered with
inlammable cloth at varying distances
from a railroad track on a heavy grade
where many trains passed every day
putting their hardest and throwing out
innumerable clnders. But II was
found that in no instance was the
cloth destroyed, only small holes be-
ing burned in It In several pans where
a live cinder had dropped but which
did not have life enough to last long.
This experiment would seem to prove
that the locomotive spark Is much less
dangerous than is generally supposed,
and that the cause Of many OF the for
est fires credited to It must be assigned
to tramps and careless campers and
builders Of brush fires.
