Where Pigeons Were Plentiful.

The American ornithologist, Alex
ander Wilson. who undertook many
journeys in several parts of the States
to collect knowledge for his great
work on the feathered creation, stated
that near Shelbyville, Ky, he came
upon a roosting place of the carrier
pigeons upward of 40 miles in extent
He found the branches of almost
every tree in the country, which was
thickly wooded. filled with nests. A
marvellous spectacle was presented by
the pigeons in flight, as on rising from
theStrees they formed fluttering multi
tudes with wings roaring like thunder.
Early every morning the pigeons set
out for their feeding place Mt dis
tance OF from 80 to 60 miles away, and
the advanced party generally arrived
back by noon.

TOM HOOD AS A JOKER.
Now Ho Once Got His Wife Into a Bad
SCrupe,


1t is one of the ironies of fate that a
wit or humorist IS sometimes married
70 prcsaic, jest-proof woman or IN
imaginative, humor-loving woman to
liJerdl-minded, matter-of-fact man.
1t has been suspected that Laurence
Stcrne, the creator of My Uncle
Toby and Shandy and Corporal Tim,
had such wife as the former, by
whom his sly, rich bits of Rabelaisian
humor-his mediaeval double enten-
ares, his quoilibet5 and quid pro quos
modelled on ScaWon and exploding like
pyrotechnics-were not only unappre-
ciated, but almost unnoticed. How for
tunate y was for that prince of testers.
Thomas Hood, that, with his fondness
for beth verbal and practical jests, he
was married to woman of the sweet
est temper. who, though often cheated
by them, could join in the laugh which
they provoked even when at her own
expense.
On one occasion. when living by
the seacoast, Hood gave his wife some
useful hints on buying fish Above
all things, Jane" said he, "as they will
endeavor to impose on your ineXperi-
ence, let nothing induce you to buy a
PAIGE that has any appearance of red
or orange spots, as they are sure signs
OF an advanced stage of decomposi-
ton" Armed with this information
and rather anxious to show off her
knowledge, Mrs. Hood was prepared
to do battle with the cunning fisher
woman, one of whom soon afterward
called. AS it happened the woman had
nothing but plaice, which had the
ominous spots, and Mrs. Hood, shak-
ing her head, limited her fears that the
fish were not fresh. In vain did the
fsherwoman insist that they were
only just out Of the water. Mrs.
Hood, in the innocence of her heart
and the pride of conscious knowledge,
was ready.
My good woman. it may be as you
say, but I should never think of buy
ing any nlaice with those unpleasant
red spots
Lord bless yer eyes, mum!" re-
piled the astonished fisherwoman with
a shout, who ever seed plaice with
out spots?"
A suppressed giggle ON the staircase
behind her revealed the joke, and,
turning her head hastily, Mrs. Hood
caught sight of her husband hurried
iy disappearing in an ecstacy Of
laughter, leaving her to appease the
angry sea symph as best she could.

tAing in proportion. Before this she
never had bed long enough to sleep
in with comfort
The greatest thin giant of recent
times was Joseph Blacisyewsl1i, Ia
boring man in Chicago, who was seven
feet eight inches in height, but weighed
only 125 pounds. He lately died at
the age Of forty-one. He came to
America from Poland.
Chicago has now n renowned boy
giant in the person of one Harry Mey-
ers. who says that he quit the show
business short time ago to become
tramp. He is one of the few tramp
giants on record. He is twenty years
old, stands six feet eleven inches in
his stocking feet and weighs over 800
pounds.
Tennessee has a reformed giant. He
is the Rev Charles Kesterson, a ma
tive Of Hancock County, in that State.
His height is seven feet eight inches,
though he says that in the prime of
manhood he was over eight feet tall.
He is now seyenty-five and weighs
about 300 pounds. Years ago he was
a moonshiner and general all-round
terror. Then he was converted, joined
the Baptist Church and began preach
ing. He was still engaged in this
work at last accounts.
1t is said that the tallest man ever
accurately measured was Winckel-
meyer, who was eight feet six inches
in height. Chang, the Chinese giant,
the tallest person ever exhibited in
this country, was only seven feet six
inches high, though he pretended to be
over eight feet.
The tallest woman ON the American
stage is Miss Mary Tull, who, beside
her histrionic talent, has won world
wide fame as the favorite model of
some American sculptors for their
goddesses of liberty. Miss TulPs
height is considerably over six feet,
which naturally limits her field of
endeavor US an actress.-New YorI;

C~- fous Fish From Driven Well.

SSfne time ago n driven we'll was
r,Znk at the Howell Creamery, Pine
Ssland, to the depth of 250 feet. The
supply OF water obtained equalled only
one quarter of the amount necessary,
and in order to obtain greater sup
ply two charges of joveite, a new ex-
plosive, were discharged by William j.
Brown, an expert in its use. Both
charges were set off simultaneously by
an electric battery, and column OF
water eight inches in diameter was
thrown to a height of 800 feet. Many
curious things came up from the bot
tom of the well, including three Curl
Gus fish. They We're about eight inches
long and had neither head nor tail,
both ends being alike. They could
swim as easily backward as forward
and were not provided with eyes or
mouth. There were several small ori-
fees at each end of these curious fish
When they came down with shower
OF stones from the top of the column
of water they bounded repeatedly
many feet in the air. One was cap
tured by Polander, who, curious to
see its interior, struck it with dull
hatchet, but made no impression what
ever upon the fish, although he killed
it. One is still alive in captivity

Most Englishmen must feel aston
ishment at the headway made by
France, Germany and Russia in recent
years; it is a revelation which, sus-
pected by some and known to a few,
was undreamed of by most. Germany
and France have the largest exhibits
of machine tools at the Champs de
Mars. But IL the Vincennes annex at
the Paris exposition is included the
Americans come out good first both
in size and in point of interest Bel
gium, Switzerland and Italy make COM
paratively little show in machine
tools, though strong in other produc-
tions. A feature that is likely to as
tonish many is the appearance here
in force OF Russia. In metallurgy
chiefly, in railway plant, and in ma
chine tools, though in lesser degree,
she occupies an important position.
And it is not that of an amateur, but
of a people in possession of sound
practical knowledge. That great and
until recently inert nation, has def
nitely entered into rivalry with the
western nations of Europe and we may
anticipate that not many years will
elapse before that rivalry viii be Sc
verely felt The nation that figures 50
largely here in metallurgy and in ma
chinery, and that is able to construct
trans-Siberian railway without out
side help, is capable of great things

The American Soldier in China.

In spite of his many handicaps, the
American soldier has fully held his
own. He has numerous weaknesses,
but fear Of the enemy is not, Fortunate
ly for the security Of the republic,
among them. | heard foreign officers
freely crlticse his military manners
and organization, but never his fight
ing qualities, once his burden of anti
quated methods has been cast aside
and he faces the foe on the firing-line.
Then he is as he always was, and, let
us hope always will be. In all the
criticism one hears there is an under
current of respect. l never see him
in fight but | feel Will absolute GER
tainty that the American soldier will
ever give good account of himself if
not asked to do more than should be
asked of a man. Other elements being
approximately equal, the stoutest heart
and steadest nerve will win the most
battles. In .nese qualities Uncle Sans
boys are second to none. They've
done their share" is the verdict Of
people in China who nave been here
through it all.-Thomas f. Millard, in
