WOMEN POLICEMEN LONDON
Queer Occupation of Crowd of With
 cred Danes.


 cred Danes.
 London has many queer things in the huge extent of it's area, but none queerer than it's women guardians of the streets, for London, unknown to most of it's inhabitants, has police force the like of which does not exist in any other city on earth. In order to see it work you must get up very early on Friday morning and visit Co., vent Garden market. There you will see such block of traffic and such cr9Wd of angry and unreasonable driV- ersNthat you will not be surprised at the Metropolitan police giving up the duty of keeping order as an impossi- ble job. But still you will find that things come right in the end, and on looking to find how this is brought about you will probably be shocked to discover that Covent Garden has po- lice force all to itself in the shape of some hundred or so of old women. They dart in and out among the cars, order the drivers to stop, or back their horses, or move on. They shout and swear and shake their fists and catch the horses heads and, If necessary, shy turnips or potatoes at the drivers. But they always succeed In having their own way. But for these women 1t is believed that 1t would be necessary to read the riot act every Saturday morn- ing in Covent Garden. As it is, the women police make comfortable lty- ing out of their profession. the drivers giving them daily tips, while the pro- prietors pay them fair salary.

PHOTOGRAPHS AS PROOFS.
They Are About as Conclusive as Figure,
 That Never rIa,,

lndt never Iie.'
 Speaking of freak photographs. j" said an old newspasSf man, reminds me of singular little incident. About three years ago, if you remember, a story went the rounds of the papers that flying machine had been seen maaeuYering in the air at a number of different places in the middle west. some of the reports seemed to be well authenticated, and it WAS certainly strange that the same yarn should come rom So many widely separated points. One day while the thing was being generally talked about. certain DIE Journal received a photograph from town h Nebraska showing an enor- nous cigar-shaped machine caught ia the top of huge oak tree. According 70 the story that accompanied the pie tafe the aerial nayigators had at tempted te land and fell foul of the oak, There was no doubt as to the genuineness of the tree in the photo. and 1t was at first thought that the machine had been painted in, which IS al old trick with pictorial fakers, When an expert was called in, how ever, he declared positively that the picture had not been doctored. and on the strength of his opinion a reprodue- tion was printed. How the trick was done afterWard leaked out. It seems the photographer first took a separate picture of small pasteboard model of flying machine, which was only about feet long. One Of the beauties about photography is that you can make everything the same size, and the photo of the model WAS as big as the photo of the tree. The model was then cut out of the picture with pair of scissors and pasted on top of the branches of the oak, and a new photo graph was taken of the combination. It was the most deeeptive-looking job l ever laid my eyes on.e-NeW Orleans Times-Democrat.

John Wesley the Great Man.

From Scribners for December: No man lived nearer the center than John Wesley. Neither Give ner Pitt, neith- CT Mansfield nor Johnson. You csn- neV cut him out of our national life. No single figure influenced so many minds, no single voice touched so many hearts. No other man did such a life's work for England. AS writer he has not achieved distinction, he was no Athanasius, no Augustine, he was ever a preacher and an organizer, la borer in the service of humanity; but happily for us his journals remain, and from them we can learn better than from anywhere else what manner of man he was, and the character of the dimes during which he lived and moved and had his being.

CUBAN FLOWER
From Which the Islands Flag Wa,
 Originally Designed.

1StsAlA IdS A3S
 Originally Designed.
 New York Tribune. There is now an exhibition in the conservatory of Pros peet park towering plant which is known in Cuba as B1anco Estrella de Gineo Puntas. This plant is particu- lafly interesting. as the Cubans orig mated the design of their flag from the flower of the plant. The box of plants was received by Park Commissioner George V. Brewer, with the regards of Capt. " Atwood French, who is sta toned in Crisbo, Cuba. Capt. French. tn his letter which accompanied the box of plants, states that the Cubans derive the emblematie star in their national flag, ii eoIor and the number or points, from the flower, which is a white star with five points. The star emblem is used by the Cubans on all the buttons of their uniforms, in stick pins, brooches and jewe1ry worn by women. Continuing, the captain says: The plant is, truly speaking, Ia Cuban in almost every particular, ex- cept, of course. color, as no one ever saw Cuban lady as blanco as is this flower, except after eineo o'clock D. m.. when she sallies forth with blanco powder (thickl, accompanied by her chaperon Gin all cases), usually little brother or the old grandmother, who IS on the watch to see that she does not notice the young Cuban beau and blush the blase coloring away and give them encouragement. They are ex- eeedingly shy and reserved, and never look at any one while taking their daily afternoon Dromenade.,'

Captured a sman unale.

Three fishermen captured 8 small whale off Ocean City, N. J., on Noyem- Der 3, after lively struggle. The whale was chasing a school of small fish, and continued the pursuit until it became stranded on the beach. The fishermen had difficulty in getting the whale well LID on shore, as it weighed about 300 pounds. It was shipped alive to Phil a delphia as gift to the University of Pennsylvania. =.

Snakes Have No Fascinating ], ,oser.


 Naturalists are not at all agreed up- on the point as to whether snakes are able to faseinate their prey. Certainly they do not possess the power to the extent that popular belief would have it. Stories of the weird and mystic influence of a serpent's eye fall fiat i'll the face of scientific accuracy. What can be said of snakes, however, is that their very appearances paralyzes the victim. It cannot move for fright, for it's faculties are temporarily suspended. There is no fascination about this. however. It is fright and fright alone.
