THE G SHOE.

The best advertised and consequent
ly the best known shoe in the world
today is undoubtedly made by the W.
L. Douglas Shoe Co., of Brockton,
Mass. The one idea Of this company
has always been to sell a shoe for
$3.50 which equals in every way the IS
shoes Of any other concern. They are
able to do this on account OF there be-
ing no middle mans profit, as the
goods are sold direct from the factory
to the wearer. In go of the principal
cities Of the country they have their
own retail stores. The goods are made
in all sizes and widths, and few shoes
equal them for style and durability.
The factory at Brockton employs
over LOO hands, and all labor trou-
bles are settled by the state board Of
arbitration. Nothing but union labor
is employed, and pay about the best
average wages Of any shoe workers in
the United States. The factory pay
roll amounts to SIT, 435 per week. This
company makes shoes for men only,
and 1t is their proud boast that rel
one million men wear them.-Denver

Big Storm Taught Skipper of Brigantine
To Trust God.

Big Storm Taught Skipper of B~rigantine
To Trust God.
All the old sailors of Portland will
tell o stories of the sudden storms
that whirl out of the dark heavens and
descend so suddenly that vessels seek
Ing harbor and apparently safe are all
1t once spun on their heels and sent
away, dashing down the horizon into
the wastes of the sea. Capt. Fick9tt,
the veteran of the Portland barge Of
Zee, was telling me the other day the
yarn of the skipper of the brigantine.
He had made a most prosperous vol
age from Turks island with a cargo of
salt, which was within almost hailing
reach of the beacon of Portland Head.
Three days ahead of time and every
thing ship-shape! The mate Of that
brigantine was a gOd-fearing man. AS
he stood with the skipper and looked
over the rail at the smoke of the dis
tant city rising heavily against a
gloomy sky, he said: well, sir, we
ought to have a word of thanks to
God for bringing us thus far toward
home all safely" well, you car thank
Him." said the skipper, brutally,
while l go down and commence to
get drunk. AS soon's l get worry off
my mind l always propose to tank up"
And he went below. And while he vas
below fulfilling his promise to the mate
from that gloomy sky broke tempest
and snowfall and blackness. 1t prob
ably had nothing to do with the fact
that the skipper was taking a drink,
but to say the least the combination
Of storm and drunken skipper was In
fortunate. For the skipper sober would
probably have been able to run the
gauntlet betweet Cow island and the
Head and reach the inner harbor in
safety. Not so the drunken skipper.
He was dismayed and dizzy and when
he came stumbling on deck in answer
to the hail Of the mate, he gave orders
to bout ship and run before the gale,
and there in plain sight of the spires
of home the helm was turned and
away they went racing down the sea
before the storm. And ere they saw
that harbor again forty days had
elapsed, during which time they had
dashed back and forth across half the
North Atlantic. And when once more
they had clawed up to the Maine coast
and had the bow pointed steadily at
the breakwater light and were we'll in
side, away from the still ugly heave
Of the ocean, the skipper grasped the
mates wet and horny hand and said,
Mate, good man, thank God."-From
the LeWistown Journal.

cocco-bacillus presenting the general
characters of B. coli, and thus resemb-
ling Loeff1er's B. typhi murium. BY
an elaborate process of repeated Gull
lures of this micro-organism passed
through series of mice, and afterward
through rats, he succeeded in intensi-
flying it's virulence so as to make it
when eaten certainly pathogenic for
the latter rodents. Having satisfied
himself of the fatal effect of the Gull
lures in the laboratory, he had them
tried in a large number of farms,
warehouses and other places infested
by rats. From the reports of these ex-
periments, amounting to several hun
dred, it appears that in so per cent of
cases the method resulted in a com
plete disappearance of the rats, while
in 80 per cent their number notably
diminished; in 20 per cent the method
failed.-Nature.

England Keeps Several of Them In Safe

England Keeps Several of Them In Safe
Places.
An ut may be gained IS to
treatment in store for leaders of the
Boer republics who may suffer defeat
and fail to escape into either German
or Portuguese territory, by comparison
with that of princes and kings held
captive heretofore by the British gov
eminent. Approaching Calcutta on the
left bank of the HULL river at Garden
beach. the visitor will have pointed
out the fine palace of the late Valid
Ali. king of Oudh. There from 1856
until a recent date this prince was
held in s~emi-captivity upon an annual
allowance of $500, 900, the only proviso
as to his freedom Of action being that
he should not leave the vicinity of Cal
cutta. The king of Oudh, true to those
~prodigal hereditary instincts which
brought about his downfall, not only
managed to expend this large. sum, but
in the keeping of snake mounds, men

was obliged to draw frequently upon
the imperial treasury for further
amounts. Blazing with Jewels and
seated in a smart %equipage, with serv-
ants in royal liveries, the king of Oudh
was often a conspicuous figure on the
Calcutta maidan-the famous park
where the society of the Indian capital
takes an outing after the heat of the
day has passed. Far different was the
fate of the poor old Bahadur shah, last
of the great Moghuls. After the fall of.
Delhi, in 1851, he was tried for high
treason and sent as a state prisoner
to Rangoon. There, in a small hut, the
only lineal descendant of Shah Jehan
and Aurangzeb, passed the remainder
of his days, unnoticed, and upon a
mere pittance. AS, however, both his
sons were slaughtered and a less Gull
pable rebel leader, Tantia Topi, was
executed, he may have thought himself
fortunate to escape with his life. Near
Colombo, in Ceylon, England still holds

killing Rats with Microbes.

A psychological method of exter-
minating rats, proposed by M. j.
Danysz, of the Pasteur Institute OF
Paris, is described in the British Med
zeal Journal. M. Danysz has found a
microbe which if introduced into a
population of rats may be trusted to
breed a ~pestilence among them that
will wipe them out, OF at least make
them a negligible quantity. From

London, June A, A a. m.-There is no
direct news from Pretoria of a later
date than Thursday evening. General
French's cavalry were then at Irene,
eight miles south of Pretoria, and firing
was heard there.
Lord Roberts message about secon-
Diary operations elsewhere and the sit
uation at johannesburg, dated at Or
east of Johannesburg, show that on
Saturday at 9:10 p. m. he was % miles
from Pretoria.
The correspondents with Lord Rob-
erts have not got through a line about
the operations after the occupation of
Johannesburg. Official messages con-
tinue to come through; but press tele-
grams are held up, probably to avoid
their giving even a hint as to what may
be the pending operations. From this
other side there filters through Lour-
emo Marques a mass of statements,
some contradictory, othehrs obviously
improbable, but all purporting to be
facts.
Passengers arriving at Lourenzo
Marques Saturday, direct from Pre-
toria, say that the capital vas prepar-
ing to surrender when they left Thurs
day. The forts were dismantled. The
Boer guard at Komatipoort searched all
trains and turned back most of the flu
gltives who were striving to reach neu-
trail soil.
Immense Boer conveys of provisions
are between Pretoria and M~iddleburg.
Fifteen trains are sent daily to Macha-

and the British are expected hourly.
