what happened while / was Stopping there
once? A man had fallen through hole in
the sidewalk and sustained injuries that re-
suited in the loss of his right arm. He sued
the city for damages, and the case was tried
before a jury, which, the papers said, was
composed of representative citizens. Well,
what do you suppose they did to him?
Brought in verdict in favor of the city,
holding that inasmuch as he was left-handed
his injury didn't amount to anything"

the jurors didn't believe he needed more than
one leg in his business, seeing that he was

meanness developed. Being poor man, be

while he was crossing the principal street

DRESS OF THE zULUs
scanty Costumes Are I'm FavOr-Of-
fensivc and Defensive
weapons.

The costume of the Zulu in the do
nestle circle, if he be man of rank,
is comprised in leopard skin about
bis shoulders, peculiar sort of belt,
made of strips of OK hide, an anklet
or two of brass, and something in the
way of necklace. His wife has a very
rainy day skirt, made for her by her
husband out of an OK hide. But this,
SO far as the man is concerned, is only
for the piping times of peace, when the
family smoke Dutch tobacco out Of
smokehorns and exhilarate themselves
with snuff. When the Zulu goes forth
to wash his assegai" he leaves leopard
skins and belts at his kraal. His tribe
have made themselves respected by the
British in open fight, and the secret of
the warlike responsibility is his "im-
pts" and his assegais.
The Zulu ''impi" is tactical and dis
,iplinary formation of about 1000
warriors on foot. In battle the impi
charge in solid formation, like the
Macedonian phalanx, each warrior COW
ering his body with shield about two
inches by eighteen at the widest part,
made of one thickness of OK hide. Each
impi is permanently under the COM
inand of an induna. The principal Of
fensive weapon of the Zulu warriors,
the ''assegai," is light spear, some
times as long as five feet, sometimes not
longer than three, the long, fat head
Of iron, beaten into the shape of will
low leaf, bound to the haft with oxhide
thongs. At close quarters the assegai,
maybe used for stabbing, but it is more
effective when used as a missile that
will kill at 200 yards, its penetrating
power being due to the rotary motion,
like that of rife bullet, which is i'm
parted in the act of hurting by pc
culiar hook of the little finger. 1t is said
that no white man has ever thoroughly

REED AND HIS MUsTAcHE.
The Man from Maine Was Proud Of
1t TIL = barber Did 1t Up
for Him.

"The members of the last two congresses
viii recall the smooth-shaven visage of
former Speaker Reed" said an old attache
of the house to a Times reporter the other
day. "And the older members will likewise
remember that Reed at one time wore a
mustache of few struggling hairs, so often
seen on the upper lips of extremely fieshy
men. How Mr.. Reed parted with his hirsute
apology can best be told by certain barber
in the house of representatives who attended
to that gentleman's wants.
Zone day the big man from Maine settled
himself in the BARRIERS chair and requested
a shave. When the operation was completed
Mr.. Reed Strengthened himself and asked:
Have you any Of that old-fashioned pomade
to wax mustaches with?
"The barber hustled among his pots and
jars and produced French preparation in
vogue quarter of century ago, and then
proceeded to wax the ends of the Maine
statesman's few wirehke hairs.
"When the man of snapshot sentences
arose and contemplated himself in the glass
he turned to the astonished barber and said:
Cut this blanked-bla mustache off, for
you have made me look like a COMPOUNDED
catfish
"Since then Mr.. Reed has not worn any
covering beneath his nose. "-Washington

DIR. Woods Hutchinson tells mum.
Der of new anecdotes to prove that ami
mails have distinct sense of chivalry,
which reaches its highest development
in dogs. Dogs seldom or neyer'bite or
injure females or the young of their
species, being, in fact, more chivalrous
in this respect than men. In hunting
the wolf the hounds almost instantly
give up the pursuit if they discover the
quarry to be a vixen. 1t has been adj
mitted always that animals have cour-
age and fidelity, but the traits have
been attributed to mere instinct, and
their virtues have not won any general
moral credit for the possessors. DIR.
Hutchinson says one of the most de-
hghtful things about the human spe-
cies is Its colossal but quite uncon-
scious coneeit'' in arrogating to itself
all the moral qualities. But this conceit
is giving way before the advance of
science, just as men no longer believe
that the sun and the stars were made
for the sole purpose of furnishing light
to people of the earfh.-Contemporary

SAVED BY COMPRESSED AIR.
Buoyancy Impaired to a War Vessel
That Was Caught ON
the Rocks.

Last summer, shortly after the Paris
ran onto the rocks on the English
coast, the American Machinist pointed
out how easy it would be to lift yes
sci in such situation off from the
jagged surface which prevented the
tugs from getting her afioat again.
The plan was not adopted by the Of
ficers of the American liner, but it has
since been tried successfully else
where. A London paper tells this
story:
Accounts of the accident to her
majesty's steamer Bonaventure, which
struck on two rocks on the China sta
ton, have already been published, but
the interesting manner in which the
water was expelled from the vessel
has not been reported. After the snip
was off the rocks the pumps could
not make any impression on the water
in the lower provision room. The cap
tain therefore had hole cut in the
armored deck. From this jet of wa
ter nine feet high came out. A screw
nozzle was fitted to the hole, and an
effort was made to force in air with
the diving pump, which, theoretical
~, should have been able to do it, but
it would not.
The chief engineer then proposed
putting in the torpedo air service,
which was done. OF course, with it it
would have been possible to blow the
ship up, SO safety valve Ia piece of
india rubber tubing, which would
burst il the pressure rose too high
was fitted to the pipe. The water was
thus forced ont through the two holes
it came in at, and the air bubbling
out showed the divers where the holes
were under the damaged sheathing
After the divers had finished work the
pumps could hold the water in check
to cei tain extent, and the engineers
we're allie to get At the damage from
the inside.-N. Y. Tribune

STANDING UP UNDER FIRE.
1t Takes q Good Deal of Courage to DO
1t I'm These Days of Long,
Range Rifles.

Speaking of the British officers il
South Africa standing up to be shot, y
said a man who was at San Juan hill
sit certainly takes a whole lot more
courage to be a soldier now than it
did in the days when they fought with
muzzle-loaders. Then a fellow could
see exactly who was shooting at him,
and if the chap missed, as was usually
the case, he could stroll over and spit
him on his bayonet while he was re-
loading. That needed courage, of
course, but it was courage of the hip,
hip, hooray! sort-not the cold, des-
perate nerve that holds a man to-
gether when bullets are buzzing like
bees and there isn't an enemy nearer
than mile; you feel then that it's
all matter of blind, brutal chance,
and such a feeling, let me assure you,
is very demoralizing one.
IAN officer, for instance, has been
standing erect quarter of an hour
without scratch; he takes two steps
and a bullet knocks out his brains.
1t seems actually as if he had been
waiting to get into it's way. Another
man stretches out his arm exactly in
time for a Mauser to smash his elbow.
Still another sees bit of shelter and
makes for it. He's just stretched him
self when a ground shot .plows
through him lengthwise. I've seen all
those things happen and good many
more of the same kind when there
wasn't single Spaniard in sight, and
the best we cosld do was to blaze
away at the landscape. It's pretty
trying for an officer to stand up at
such a time, but there's no doubt
about it steadying the men.
"One of the peculiar things about
high power bullets is that they al
ways seem a good deal nearer and
more numerous than they really are.
A soldier on the ground thinks the
air is literally full of them, and if
he hadn't seen the officers walking
around quietly be, might have difficult
ty in jumping up himself when the
word is given to charge. 1t would
seem like simple suicide. On the Sec
ond day of the Santiago fight /
thought the bullets were passing over
us In a solid sheet, and / was much
surprised to see. our captain get up
and begin polishing his field glasses
with his handkerchief. If it hadn't
been for that might be hugging tae
ground there yet" \ l.
