PILGRIMS
Sail FroW New York For the Holy
Land And Europe.

NEW YORK. Feb. 10.-Amid cheers
from a large crowd aud much embrac-
ing. Misunderstanding aud other tokens of
farewell, a large party Of modern pill
grims to the Holy Land sailed today on
the Fuerst Bismarck. The party, which
includes men and women from many
parts of the country, is under the spir-
itual guidance of Rev. J. Wilbur Chap
man and Rev. Ford G. Otsmsn, both of
this city.
The original plan was to limit the
party to college men and their families.
but the prospectus was so alluring and
there were so many applications from
the members of DR.. Chapman s church,
the Fourth Presbyterian, aud from
others who heard of the plan, that the
first idea was abandoned, aud the party
sailing today includes men and women
from all walks of life.
1t is planned TO spend four or five
weeks in the Holy Land and an equal
length of time in a journey through
Europe, SO that the pilgrims will not
return to American shores before the
latter part of May.

THAT MARATHON SHOOTING
Nixon, Who Did the Shooting, Under

These further details of the shooting
at Marathon, noted exclusively in the
HERALD few days ago, ,are taken from
the Alpine Avalanche.
There was another shooting scrape
Wednesday night at Msrathon, in
which Bud Granger was shot twice by
Bill Nixon mot Alpine's Bill Nixon),
and Victoriano Delgsdo, of Alpine,
was mortsliy wounded by a stray bull

We have been unable to get particu-
lars, but it seems that Granger and
Nixon had some trouble in the Elite
saloon where Granger was tending bar,
and Nixon went away, got pistol and
returning, opened fire on Granger,
shooting him once in the side and once
in the arm, neither wound we under
stand being serious. The latter, it is
said, had a shot gun handy, but did
not use it for fear of killing Innocent

A stray bullet from Nixcn's pistol
struck Victoriano Delaado in the
stomach and the unfortunate man died
last night about O'Clock. Deceased

Gilbert Curtis had run up to Deephaven
to put in few days there with friend.
The reports of the place had fascinated
him. A quaint old town with broad
streets shaded by elms lying along a
picturesque inlet or bay, and fine country
roads leading from its artless gayety into
soothing stretches of green beauty.
There was cocky little casino, with
wide verandas all around it, so there was
always some shady side where one could
find cool refreshment in contemplation of
the sunlit sea. There was music and
dancing in the evenings.
Kennedy had gone to Deephaven early
in the summer and had written as lauda-
tory letters as possible. Such good fish
ing, jolly sailing, rom antic drives, coo
weather, plenty Of dancing, and an ex-
cellent table.
Then he began to speak of another
charm Deephaven afforded, one that was
wrapped up in petticoat. 81 can't help
pitying her little, though it's absurd to
say that about Mrs, Worthington. But
she's SO young, and has such bright,
unaffected vivacity, and her eyes are very
round, and her eyebrows so arched, and
on her temples there is the dimmest little
touch of wondering blue vein, such as
shows sometimes through baby's skin.
You can analyze, Curtis, and l can only
sympathize. She has been married once

COURTESY IN ONES HOME

When we read of court functions in
foreign lands we notice that precedence
is thing determined by arbitrary laws,
and should we spend season in Wash
ington we would learn that there are GER
tain conventional rules which govern So
ciety and which cannot be violated by
any one, from the lowest to the highest,
says Good Housekeeping.
Precedence is an anomaly in the simple
life of the ordinary home, yet it is an
open question whether the cheerful con-
tentment of the simplest household would
not be increased if there were more for
mality in the daily intercourse of parents
and children. Politeness would prevent
much friction, for it is inconsistent with
politeness to squabble, to say disagreeable
things, to be brutally candid. Perhaps
we do not half consider how much polite
Hess caves us ffrezsa as We sc about among
our friends.
In home conversation precedence as to
right of way should be with the elders.
Father and mother, grown up brothers
and sisters, guests, should be allowed to
express themselves and little people
should not be suffered either to interrupt,
or to carry on talk in high key so that
the older persons can hardly hear them
selves speak.
One finds in otherwise well-bred cir
cles an amazing license accorded to the
children, in their continual breaking in
with queries or with information about
their own matters, nobody taking notice
that they are learning to trample on
others by the practice of speaking first
and speaking loudest. When mother
comes into room, Hubert and Harriet
should see that she has chair. l can
think of nothing ruder than the figure of
girl of say ten, twelve or thirteen years
calmly ensconced in the most comfortable
chair in the house, while her mother, or
her father for that matter, looks about in
vain for as desirable seat.
Boys are, of course, taught to rise and
give seat to any lady who enters room,
also to rise and remain standing till a
woman is seated, but the rule is often in
allowance to their own mothers and sis
tiers. You may enter it on your records
as a rule without exception, that no one
will ever be at ease in society who fails in
the little daily amenities in the home.
Only as we are most careful to insist on
perfect courtesy in our home life, can we
expect that our children shall appear to
advantage when they step on the larger
world-stage beyond their own doors.

PREHISTORIC MONSTERS

For millions of years countless multi
tudes of living animals have played their
little parts on earth and passed away, to
be buried up in the oozy beds of old
time, or entombed with the leaves that
sank in the waters of primeval lakes
The majority of these perish beyond all
recovery, leaving not trace behind; yet
vast number of fossilized remains have
been, in various ways, preserved; some
times almost as completely as if Dame
Nature had thoughtfully embalmed them
for our instruction and delight. To geol-
oglsts this stony record is legible, for the
hieroglyphics are about as readable as
those of Egyptian monuments. A strange
and wonderful earth drama is thus re-
vealed. Shall we call it tragedy or a
comedy? Doubtless tragic scenes occurred
at times, as, for instance, when fierce
monsters engaged one another in deadly
combat. Backgrounds of scenery were not
wanting. Then as now, the surface OF the
earth was clothed in vegetation. Nor
were the underground forces of the earth
less active than they were now; volcanic
eruptions often took place on magniti-
cent scale, volcanoes poured out fiery
lava streams of leagues beneath their feet;
great showers of ashes and fire dust were
elected into the air. Very little indeed is
known about the causes of extinction, in
some cases, as with the mammoth, the
megatherium or the moa, the great wing
less bird of New Zealand, We can trace
the hand of man as being the cause at
work. But how about the dinosaurs, that
remarkable order of reptiles now lost for
ever. Why did they die out, while their
cousins, the Lizards and the crocodiles
remain? Or why, again, have all the
winged reptiles (pterodactyis) disap-
peared. The most we can say at present
is that these, and many other orders now
extinct, seems to have been ousted, or
beaten in the struggle for existence, by
types of a higher and more complex
nature. And yet, for all that, many of
the lower types remain. There must be
some great law yet undiscovered

ENGINEEkS' HAUNTED HOTsE

"Some houses are haunted to soma
people and all right to othersn said an
engineer ON the Ninth avenue elevated
road, relates the New York Sun. soTbere
is house on our line that is haunted to
the men who have been on this run for
few years back. May be YOU remember
the story. 1t was printed when the Incl
dent happened. One of our men noticed
mans face at the window Overlooking
the road. Every time the train nassAd
for three days, believe, the eng;naor
saw the face. 1t was always the same
Then he told somebody else about if and
on investigation it was discovered that
the man at the window was dead He
occupied the room alone. There was no
one else in the house. He had killed
himself and in note found on his table
it was written that the man was lonesome
and that he had raised the window inst
before the act so that he might die in the
noise of the city. That was all there
was to the story.
Ever since that time every engineer
and fireman on the line who was en-
ployed at that time turns his face away in
passing that house. l have heard them
all speak of it, and to each of them that
house is haunted, although it is now oc-
cupied, and 1 don't suppose the people
who live there know anything about the
story. I know | have tried to forget it,
but just before my engine passes it the
recollection of the dead face at the win
dow comes back to me and l either close
my eyes or look in an opposite direction.

Sowing Lawns

In seeding down a lawn in the fall
winter wheat may be sown with the
grass seed, and it will not only prevent
the soil from washing, but give the
ground a beautiful fresh green sward
early in the spring, which may be kept
clipped, but will remain until the grass is
well grown among it. The wheat will
keep down the weeds, and the change
from the green of the wheat to that of
the grass will be so gradual as to be
scarcely noticeable. The sward will be
firm and even if the work is well done,
without holes or gullies. If the lawn is
not made until spring, oats or spring rye
may do as well, though we prefer the
oats. These methods are much practiced
by the gardeners around Washington and
in the parks of some other cities, to save
the trouble and expense of sodding large
areas.
