THE CUBAN ENGINEER CORPS.
Red Lemonade 1t Had
to Return.

Il noticed in the papers the othcI
day." said al eX-volunteer soldier, that
an old street corner telescope man had
got into a comical row with a lot of
newsboys. The item was of no special
Importance, but it recalled a singular
character l met when l was with the
army down in Cuba. He was known as
Col. Todd, chief of the Cuban engineer
corps and, although he was engaged
in selling red lemonade on the plaza in
Havana when 1 first encountered him,
the title was bona fide. Possibly you
remember the once famous Florida TX
petition that sailed from Tampa with
men and supplies for the insurgents
shortly before we declared war. Well,
the junta agent who had the affair in
charge was especially anxious to secure
a corps of engineers, but he was unable
to find anybody in that line who was
willing to go. The night before the ex-
petition sailed he happened to notice
Il telescope man on a street corner sell
ing peeps at the moon for five cents a
squint.' Business seemed to be dull,
and the agent had an inspiration. Here
was an astronomer in hard luck. An
astronomer was necessarily something
of a mathematician. and n mathemati-
clan was. or ought to be. more or less
of an engineer. BY that process of rea-
soning he arrived at the conclusion that
the telescope-nlan was exactly the per-
son to fit the job of chief engineer of the
army of Cuba. In two minutes he had
made his proposition and it was accept
ed on the spot. The telescope mans
name was'Todd, and the agent immedi-
ately brevetted him colonel and chief
OF corps. At first he was n little nervous
and said he was afraid the engineers in
the corps would kick about being IN
der his command. Rest easy, colonel
said the agent. blandly: you are the
corps That settled it. and he went
over, his uniform consisting of a cap he
got from a trolley car conductor. After
that. when the war correspondents re-
ferred to 'the newly organized engineer
corps of the patriotic army they were
really referring to Col. Todd. Shameful
to relate. 10 provision was made for him
at the conclusion of hostilities. and he
was obliged to fall back on red lemon
ade. Maybe ere now he has purchased
another telescope."-N. o. Times-Dem-

HINES GOING HOME.
large Numbers Who Have Died
Abroad in Recent Yenrs VIII
BE Sent to China.

All the overland trains arriving at
Seattle these days bear c~ontingents of
Chinese homeward bound. During q
recent week at least 400 of the Mon
,colians left Seattle for Victoria, from
which mort they were to sail for Hong
Kong.
Next year is to be a big n in the
history of China, and this is the chief
cause of the great exodus. 1t is then
that the "Six Companies" in America
will superintend the shipment of the
bones of dead Chinese to China. Rep
resentatives of the empire will be sent
to all foreign lands for the same pur-
rose. and the beginning of 1900 will
witness impressive ceremonies il
nected with the reinterment of the
bones in the soil of the Flowery King
dom on n more elaborate scale than
ever before.
During a period beginning about
the middle of January, so an old gray
headed Chinaman stated, and lasting
.rtil the middle of March or April,
the people IN all parts of the empire
will observe a sacred holiday. During
its progress fasts and symbolic rites
will be observed, and during all this
time the task of laying the bones in
new resting places will be carried on.
1t is to witness these ceremonies that
a large number of Chinese are jour-
neying across the Pacific.
Another class is going home, never
to return, and among these, it is said.
a + many of the better class of Can
tonese to be found in this country.
They are those who have grown ricn
in America, and. finding old age COM
ing on, are anxious to go home and
spend the remainder of their days in
ease and comfort. Among a party of
12 arriving the other day at least two
were worth $4,000 in American gold.
This in Hong-Kong. or further in the
interior, where a great majority are
going, will not only be an immense
fortune, but will raise the possessors
in the social scale to the highest de-
gree, and may result in royal favors
and the comforting of rank and title.

Curious Effects of the Air.

Prof. H. a. Hazen records that on one
occasion he walked down to the edge
of Lake Michigan in the face of q
strong wind. Although he was in per-
feet physical condition, within five
minutes he had every symptom of a
very hard cold. This severe influenza
continued until, on walking away from
the lake, it disappeared as by magic
when he had gone less than $50 feet.
He then learned that hundreds of
residents had been compelled to
back from the shore to escape influenza.
he ascribes the effect to the abundance
Of ozone in the air at the edge of the
lake. He has accumulated many in
stances of persons of nervous tempera-
ment who cannot sleep during the pas
sage of high pressure areas in the at
mospheee. The cause in this case is
obscure.-Youth's Companion.

CHARACTER IN ONES VOICE.
According to This Authority 1t II a.
PerceptibIe N the Words
You Speak,

Unless the voice sounds cordially,
words are ~powerless; unless the voice
attests self-confidence, pro~testations
dc not convince; unless the voice
speaks sincerity, the apology is use
less. 1t is necessary that we should
control the voice to a reflection OF
that phase of mind and mood which
we desire to present. When we would
convince people of our efficiency we
must not permit a weakened voice
to stagger under the words. When
our hearts 60 out in warmth and affec-
ton it cannot get far in a brass-hned,
iron-bound voice. Cancellation is vain
when the voice rings defiance.
Imagine yourself at a telephone
when the instrument whirrs and
wheezes. The most imprisoned ap-
peal to John to come home to dinner
and meet Cousin Mary is likely to
prove Intellectual. A message to that
brute of a dressmaker-man" who
wants his money may be divided into
the receiver with all dignity of tone
and choice of word, but the wobbled
reproduction at the other end does
not go. You may use all your words
when you are talking through the
possessed wire to the business man
ager, but if the possessed wire is in
a creaky fit the business manager
does not get the right idea at all.
The truth is that most of us are
always talking through a telephone.
The honest will, the courteous intent,
the high heart of courage, speaks clear
wheezy, creaky, thin, unnatural coll
orless result at our lips misrepresents
us, and John doesn't, the dressmaker-
man insists, and the business man
ager gives the other fellow the job.
What can we do about it? The diff
ficulty is almost always first a voice
habit-a color the voice has taken on
from some prevailing tint in N life.
This is so with almost everyone. This
stain of the natural voice color is not
voice individuality; it is a modifying
of voice individuality, an obscuring of
it. 1t is a habit-not a characteristic,
1t must be gotten rid of.
Only just what you want must go
into your voice. Think of hat a lit
tie. Wien you call to the child who
stands on the edge of a fall, shall
your panic go into your voice, or just
the reassuring note of gentle author
ity that you know will bring the child
to you, instead of starting him over
the dreadful edge? When you inter
view the insubordinate cook, shall
your sense that she very well deserved
to be thrown out of your back door
and her trunk on top of her prevail in
your voice, or your earnest desire to
keep her in hand till after the inn
pending dinner? When you face just
the personality in your world who
holds at the minute your fortunes in
his gift, shall your sick sense that he
does not know and may not believe
in your fitness for what you are &C.
ing to ask, color your voice, or shall
your firm belief that you can fill the
place characterize it, That is the
whole question. Shall your voica VIZ
brate to such a quality of your mood
as you choose, or shah it be at the
mercy of just what will do you injus-
tiee in the mind of those who hear?-

The Pole Star.

Prof. Campbell, of the Lick observa.
tory, says the north pole star is ap-
preaching our solar system at the rate
of seven miles per second. This ve-
iocity he calculated by means of the
sp~ectroscope. The professor further
announces that the star is not single,
but double. The companion star is not
visible to the naked eye, but can be
made out with a powerful telescope.
The two stars revolve around their
common center of gravity in a period
of four days, their orbit being COM
parable in size to that of our own
moon. 1t is also further believed that
a third body is attracting the two-star
system. thus causing a periodical vari-
alton in the velocity Of the pole star

IMMUNITY FROM PLAGUE
Certain Races That Have Strangely
Escaped the Bubonfc
PcstiIence.

Apropos of the bubonic plague now
creeping into Portugal, has it ever been
noticed in what an erratic i'm
munity from this disease seems to have
conferred upon certain races and sects?
Thus in 1884 it was noticed that the
Protestants of Lyons escaped almost to
a man. So did the Jews in ar outbreak
at Nimeguen in 1876. Something of the
same sort has been noticed with regard
to other diseases, for while in the out
break of typhus at Langoens in 1924 the
Jews remained immune, their coreli-
gionists in Poland have always been
the first to catch cholera. But the
strangest thing in connection with the
plague is that in most cases the seeds
of the disease seem to remain dormant
in the systems of those exposed to the
risk of %contagion until some new cpl
demic calls them into activity.
Procopius. who observed the plague
in Constantinople pretty closely during
Justinian's reign, declares that if per-
sons born in an infected town settled
in a town hitherto free from it they
were sure to be the first attacked if
the plague again visited the country,
even after the lapse of several years.
A similar fact was noted during the
Nimeguen outbreak, where two chill
dren of one Van Dam were sent to the
immune town of Gorcunen and re-
manned there in perfect health for three

FIRST LAFAYETTE con-.
IIapress Of Nations Kew
Dollar.

On the one hundredth anniversary Of
the death of George Washington the
first La Fayette dollar was coined by the
United States treasury in the Philadel-
phia mint, the honor of coming the new
money falling 10 the lot of Miss Clery,
of the Quaker city.
Speaking of her work, she said:
Il was so embarrassed with all the
people locking at me that I could hard
ly slip the unstamped coin in the
groove.
Everyone was standing SO close AID
I knew superintendent Boyer, Director
Roberts and Engraver Barker were
watching me. My hand was shaking so
that l felt convinced 1 would drop the
silver on the floor"
Miss Clery felt the dramatic moment
even more keenly than the audience.
Five men stood behind her ready to turn
the great, old-fashioned press. The
round silver discs soon to become veri-
table treasures to the numismatist were
heaped up in her lap.
At her side Mr.. Thompson, secretary
of the commission, was talking.
Grouped around him stood those high
est in authority. Mr.. Roberts, keen
faced, gray-haired, erect, confident;
Mr.. Boyer, anxious, watchful: Mr.. Bar
Der, holding his powerful glass waiting
to examine the imprint of the first coin.
Someone said: "At this hou1 on the
day the great Washington died we coin
the first La Fayette dollar in honor Of
his foster brother"
Then came the signal, $50 on" and
everyone held their breaths for a mo-
ament.
Miss Clery put in the silver disc.
Five men swung the wheels; there
was a jar and hitch somewhere; the
master gave a few quick orders-and
that dollar, for which 5000 other dol
lars were offered-came out of the ma
ochinery and was handed to the engraver
for inspection.
at is all right" said the glad voice
of the man who had been working on
this design since March.
Director Roberts took it in the name
of President Mckinley, and those who
saw it knew hat they had watched one
of the great coins of the world struck.
President Mckinley will present it to
the president of France, and it will here
after repose in a 81, 1000 case.
Miss Clery was delighted at her for
tune in being appointed to the task.
She said it was the most memorable mo-
ment of work in her life.
She completes $4,000 of them before
the task is over, and each dollar is to be
sold BY the American commission for
two dollars.
This 500, COO will be Americas gift to
the great equestrian statue of La Fay
cite to be erected for the French expo
sition.
The dollar designed by Mr.. Barber
has the profiles of Washington and La
Fayette overlaid On one side; on the re-
verse is a copy of the La Fayette statue

don, that eccentric preacher, who last
year tried to edit q paper as Christ
would conduct it, if he might come
down to earth and undertake that
job, has again made himself notorious
by insisting upon walking from a
Clinton street church, in Brooklyn, to
Carnegie Hall, Manhattan, and keer
two engagements, because he was op.
posed to the Sunday service of cars
and vehicles of all kinds, and would
not, therefore, ride in them. The con.
sequence was that he was an hour late
and kept an impatient congregation
waiting. and it is now a question with
him whether the suppressed profanity
of his auditors was not greater in.
fraction of morality than would have
been Sunday ride in the cars. Some
men are too good for Earth and should
be translated to their heavenly home
before making themselves ridiculou,
