OUR MINISTER SILENT.

Washington, April Tt is said at the
State Department that nothing has
been heard from United States Min
lister ConSer within the last few days
10 indicate any substantial change in
the situation in Shan Tung. The Min
lister has not informed the Department
OF the reported concerted action of the
representatives of the foreign powers
at Pekin Mr.. Conger's instructions
enable him to make as strong u pre-
sentation as he may deem necessary
and even to intimate the intention of
the United States Government TO un-
dertake, through its own agencies, to
supply the needed protection to our
citizens, should the Chinese Govern
ment fail in its duty in that matter.
The United states Minister was spe-
ciflcally instructed that he must act
on his own responsibility, and, while
his course might lie parallel to that
followed by the other Ministers resident
in Pekin. he must under no crcum-
stances join with them in a concert.
The Minister appears to have an
ticipated the necessity for something
of the kind, for a month ago he sug-
gested to the State Department the
expectancy of having warship from
Admiral Watson's fleet sent to q point
as near Pekin as possible The Wheel
ing was accordingly dispatched from
Manila to Taku, which lies at the
mouth of the Piehe river. The Wheel
ing from her light draft may easily
ascend the river as far as Tien Tsn.

Plants That Intoxicate.

Bumblebees, butterflies end beetles
are habitual drunkards. In some OF
the southern states insects alight on
certain plants, drink heartily from the
blossoms and fall to the ground stu
pefed. After awhile they rise and ny
around, just as drunken men would DO
if they had the power Of flying. Their
antics are especially amusing unless
one does not know what is the trouble.
In this case the suspicion that the IN
sect world has gone crazy is upper
most.
4 scientist who had observed the
drinking and its results collected a
teaspoonful Of the pollen to see II 1t
would affect man the same way. He
swallowed it and in few minutes
found his pulse beating faster and 8
rise Of temperature. Then he distilled
some Of the blossoms and gave himself
hypodermic injection in the arm. be
became decidedly dizzy as result. BY
further experiments he found an oil de-
rived from these plants which affects
human beings and animals alike.-Ne"

His New Stove.

Old Hi Drew, who lives in q village
not 40 miles away, came into town last
week on the sly to buy birthday gift
Tor his wife He cast about vigorously
and struggled in valiant way through
the crowds, finally being washed
ashore in the doorway Of 4 hardware
establishment. Despairing of fighting
his way any farther, he made up his
mind to make his purchase right there.
Martha wanted 4 new stove, anyway.
So he allowed himself to be taken In
hand by an energetic salesman and had
soon purchased fo- S21 an article that
was guaranteed to cook anything and
everything ell at one time. He had it
expressed out to the village and by
cunning strategy succeeded in getting
it set up in the kitchen the next morn
ing without Martha's knowledge. When
she saw it, she hugged him and beam
ed all over with delight. Then he went
out and killed young sucking pig and
two chickens and prepared for q royal
spread.
Suddenly a blank look passed over
the old mans face.
"Why, what's the matter. Drew?'
exclaimed his wife.
"Look it herer' he cried. "Here I've
been and bought darn gas stove fol
sci, and there amt no gas for nine
miles."-Chicago Times-Herald.

I.anceyfty of Whales.

Some light was thrown upon the sub
ject Of the vitality Of whales by finding
one Of these animals in Bering sea in
1890 with a "toggle" larpoon head in
its body bearing the mark Of the Amer
lean whaler Montezuma. That vessel
was engaged in whaling in Bering sea
about ten years, but not later than
1854. She was afterward sold to the
government and was sunk in Charles
ton harbor during the civil war to serve
as an obstruction. Hence it is estimat-
ed the whale must have carried the
harpoon not less than Sc years.
In connection with this fact William
H. Dali gives an account in The Ma
tional Geographic Magazine Of q dis
cussion with Captain E. P. Herendeen
Of the United States National museum
Of cases of whales that have been sup:
posed to have made their way from
Greenland waters to Bering strait and
to have been identified by the harpoons
they carried. While it is very likely
that the whale really makes the pas
sage an uncertainty must always be
allowed, for ships were often chang
ing ownership, and their tools were
sold and put on board Of other vessels,
and harpoon irons were sometimes CIV
en- or traded to Eskimos. It therefore
becomes possible that the animal was
struck with 8 secondhand lron.-Popu-
lar Science.

Danny Lied.

Danny, who is an errand boy in 9
brokers' Office, got job in the same
Office for his chum Harry. Danny set
himself the task Of making Harry ap
pear to the best advantage during the
probationary period Of his job, and he
found it necessary sometimes to use
means that were only justified by the
end.
Every afternoon Danny had to run
with messages from one Of the ex
changes to the Office, distance Of hall
mile. When Harry came, Danny had
to "break him in" to do this. The first
day that he made the trip from the
exchange Harry staggered into the Of
fee, gasping, with his eyes starting
from his head. For q moment be
couldn't speak. The broker looked al
him in astonishment and said:
"You ran pretty fast, didn't you;
How long did 1t take?"
"Four minutes and II seconds" aar
ry painted, looking at the clock.
That's pretty good time," said the
broker.
"No, sir" said Harry; mot very
good. Danny says he does it every
day in q minute and a quarter."-NeW

stage Thunder and Lightning.

The reason why the mechanism for
making the noises that give realism to
@ play are never seen by the audience
is because the illusion would be CON-
pletely destroyed if its operations were
exposed to view, explains Frank F,yies
in The Ladies Home Journal.
The noise Of the waiter falling down
stairs with q tray Of dishes, for In
stance, is simulated by dropping as Of
Ten as necessary basket filed with
bits Of broken china, and cylinder OF
silk. turned with a crank, Craving the
cloth over wooden hanges, gives per
feet rain and wind storm. y lightning
accompaniment is made by touching
an ordinary file to a bit Of carbon, both
ON live wires. and thunder by rolling
tenpin balls in 4 long. narrow, wooden
trough.
The rumble of the wheels Of car
r,ase is initiated with vehicle like q
miniature freight car run on 4 wooden
track. and q striking Of wood or metal
on hard or soft surfaces serves to con-
vince an audience Of the approach or
departure Of q horse. When there Is
war, q single shot or two is usually
the real thing, but O rife volley effect
Is obtained by rapidly beating q dried
calfskin with rattans, while heavy
strokes on the bass drum will convey
the idea Of cannonading.
II this mechanism were seen in op-
Grafton By an audience, it would make
the whole performance seem ridiculous.

Avenged the Slight.

A rich Prussian banker who had
bought his title Of "von" by. some
means or other managed to squeeze
his son into q regiment Of the guards.
Once admitted, be was Of course treat
ed by the other officers as one Of them
selves. One day the banker gave q
splendid dinner, to which he invited
through his son all the officers Of the
regiment save one, very nice fellow,
who, however, was not noble, having
no aristocratic "von" predxed to his
name.
All accepted the invitation, perfectly
unconscious that one Of their number
had been so badly treated. When, how
ever, they took their seats at the table,
the absence Of their comrade was I'M
mediately noticed. Some one remark
ed the fact to the host, who said in 3
loud voice, "Ah, you see, we are going
to be entire nous tonight, really Sc
lect party, you know"
''Then we must not disturb you,
said the senior officer present, rising
from his chair, and one after another
the guardsmen solemnly filed out Of
the room, thus amply avenging the
slight to which an officer Of their regl
ment had been subjected.

sixteenth Century Apples.

Apples be so divers Of form and sub
stance that it were infinite to describe
them ali. Some consist more Of aire
then water, as sour puffs called Nala
puImonea; others more Of water then
wind, as sour Castaras and Pome Wa
ters. To be short, all apples may be
sorted into three kinds, sweet, soure
and unsavory. Sweet apples ease the
cough, quench thirst, cure melancholy,
comfort the heart and head, especially
If they be fragrant and odoriferous,
and also give q laudable nourishment.
Soure apples hinder splitting, straiten
the brest, grippe and hurt the stomach,
encrease phlegm and weaken memory.
Sweet apples are to be eaten at the
beginning Of meat, but soure and tart
apples at the latter end. All apples are
worst raw, and best baked or preserT-
ed.
Philip Of Macedonia and Alexander,
his son, from whome perhaps curious
and skilful herald may derive our Ian
cashire men, were called Philomeh ap-
pie lovers because they were never
without apples in their pockets. Yea,
all Lacedonians, his countrymen, did
so love them that having neer Babylon
surprised a fruiterer's boy they strived
for it that many were drowned.-Dr.
Thomas N1offett in 1915.

E1enhant and Train.

A big and ugly elephant which had
long been an object of pursuit to the
sportsmen of the Straits Settlements
one day wandered on to the railway
line and tried conclusions with the en-
gine Of q goods train, charging it re-
peatedly and keeping up the contest for
nearly an hour. The engine was re-
versed in the hope that the beast would
allow the train to proceed, but as soon
as there was any attempt to renew the
journey the elephant returned to the
encounter and resumed its obstructive
tactics. The driver was afraid to
charge the brute, lest the train should
be thrown of the rails, and the contest
might have gone on much longer had
not the elephant backed into the en-
gine and, setting its fore feet firmly
between the rails, endeavored to shove
the train backward with it's hind quar-
ters-
The driver took advantage Of the op-
portunity and put on steam, gradually
forcing the beast off the line. In this
maneuver one Of the wheels Of the en-
CINE went over the hind legs Of the
animal, which was put out Of its mis-
cry, by the guard Of following psssen-
ger train.-Science.

A Trick That Won.

A few weeks ago pretty little "a
risian actress was appearing at the
ater in Geneva. On the last night OF
the play tall, we'll dressed man sent
In his card and asked permission to
thank her personally for the pleasure
that her performances had given to
him. He entertained her at supper
and asked permission to see her on at
the station on the following day. he
arrived with his groom, who was car
rying tremendous bouquet Of flowers.
He told her that he had telegraphed
to his brother, who was in Paris and
who had influence both with the press
and the theatrical managers and that
he would meet her on her arrival in
Paris To the astonishment of the
actress all this turned out to be true,
and she found a magnificent carriage
at the station. 4 fine dinner followed.
The girl was dumb with astonlsh-
ment. Her host told her that it was
all for the sake Of his brother, whom
he loved dearly, and he spoke pathet-
ically of the beautiful bouquet that
she carried and which was made up OF
flowers culled in the garden Of the old
homestead. She offered him the bou-
quet instantly, and he accepted it with
thousand thanks.
Now she has found out why she was
treated so we'll. She had been the
means of smuggling watch springs to
the value Of $4,000 into Paris.
