The perfect blending Of the real and
ideal has recently been advertised by
Paris milliners, who has come to use
oats from the fields to trim the bon
nets of their fair customers. The adj
venture which befell one such bonnet
and its wearer is related by foreign
newspaper. A lady, dressed beyond
the reach of criticism, was crossing a
broad boulevard A cab bore down
upon her and she stepped hastily back
and stopped in front OF the curbstone,
unmindful of a horse and cart stand
ing Immediately behind her. The horse
quietly shifted the oats and then, de-
Gliding that they were genuine, began
to MUNICH. He was thus engaged when
the lady, quite unaware of the pleasure
she was affording the hungry animal,
started forward. But the horse was far
from satisfied, and planting his fore
feet on the ladys skirt, continued his
repast. The lady, supposing the horse
about to devour her head, promptly
tainted and was removed to drug
gist's shop near by, where happily she
soon recovered. The moral of the
story is that every field Of oats should
have fence about it.

PACIFIC FISHING INCIDENT.
Narrow Escape of Small Boats Party
from whales Mad Rush.


from whales Mad Rush.
The theory that whales refuse to at
tack men unless they themselves are
assailed is exploded. A monster whale
not less than sixty feet in length made
o vicious charge at boat anchored OH
Point Cayallo and badly frightened It's
occupants. But for the GOODNESS OF the
man who had the boat in charge the re-
suit might have been disastrous. inc
boat, containing the fisherman and mis-
three children, was pulled to a point
about 1 500 feet off Point Cavallo and
dropped anchor. The party We're fish
ing industriously, when a whale en-
tered the Golden Gate and speeded to-
ward them. The spectacle OF the AMI
NAL excited the curiosity of the young
er fisher folk but caused no alarm. sud
denly his whaleship caught sight OF the
boat and he reared his majestic pro-
portions aloft until he seemed to tower
in the water like a six-story building.
He was evidently getting his bearings,
and as he caught sight of the boat he
spouted fiercely. Then he sank with
g huge splash, aud came up again and
dashed for the boat. Happily, the aim
of the leviathan was bad, for in his
rush he missed the boat by some three
or four feet and passed on like a whirl-
wind a considerable distance beyond.
The rapid passage of the whale with
half of his huge body above the water
line thrashed the water into minia-
ture tidal wave, which swung the boat
as though in an eddy and all but cap
sized it, The children screamed in
terror and gave themselves up for lost.
/ The fisherman did not lose his head,
however, and by a judicious use of his
oars brought the boat about, and, mi
nus some fishing tackle which was
purloined by the whale in his passage,
4 he headed for the shore. The whale
turned as if to renew the attack, but,
apparently thinking better of it, he
/ tapped his fms and tail and dove out
of sight. Later he was seen off AL
catraz, where he remained for an hour
/ or two observing the Notifications.
What became of him after that nobody
/ knows.-San Francisco Post.

Short sight is not tolerated in com
mon soldier, but sometimes it is neces-
sary to tolerate it in an officer. Fur
thermore, there are many short-sighted
officers who are unwilling to wear
glasses. Such a one was a certain
captain in the British army of whom
a story is told in an English paper
During a kit inspection a mop had
been left propped with the head up
permost against spare bed cot. The
short-sighted captain entered and
glanced at the mop. Then he snapped
his fingers. "Color-sergeanti" he ex-
claimed. Eyes, sir" said the sergeant
saluting. "see that that man has his
hair cut immediately" said the cap
tain, pointing at the mop.

FUNCTIONS OF A NEWSPAPER.
People Make the News, the Paper Holds
Up tho Picture.

"
Up tho Picture.
There are two qualities of human
nature that seem to be inherent in the
article. 1t is natural and 1t is human.
This accounts for q great many things
that people do. For one thing, mourn
Ut as we may, they love fight. The
successful warrior is the ideal, popular
hero. What is war but wholesale
Gighting? History, as ii has been writ
ten for centuries is little but the rec
ord of battles Old Hobbies, who con-
tended that war was the natural state
of man, and that the intervals of peace
were artificial situations, had a good
deal on his side of the argument. Now
with these things as they are, It is
human and natural that such an affair
as that prize fight last week should
attract much attention. You cannot
help it, 1t was the event of its hour
Men and women stood for hours late at
night in the driving rain to find out how
the two brutes were pummeling each
other, and which was getting the best
of IT, Disgusting, truly, but what are
you going to do about Il? We have
heard of some criticism of the news
papers for printing the story next
morning. Well, if they had not printed
Ut they would have ceased to be news
papers That's all about that. A news
paper is daily publication that gives
the news. 1t does not print what GER
fain people wish to have happen, but
what does happen. IL does not make
the news, but publishes it. We are no
more responsible for that prize fight
than for the Charleston earthquake of
some years ago. We described both as
well as we could That's our business.
I'VE are not defending the brutal and
brutalizing business of prize fighting.
But, in detail, it has this advantage
over war: The innocent do not get
killed by it. 1t probably causes little
suffering. as the brutes engaged in the
sport have every appearance of being
practically incapable Of the finer feel
fngs, and evidently have very inferior
lsensibillty. 1t calls for no sympathy
mo harm would be done the world ii
the two contestants should kill each
other. II is merely a contest between
two human animals who test thereby
(unless the pool box interests prevent
their respective ability to give ant
Withstand punches. Such entertain
ments are crowded. Not to publish The
results of an affair as that of las

would take about 270 melons to make

melons would be worth at wholesale

or three days to haul and sell them
