CURIOUS WEATHER VANES.
All Sorts of Things Set Up to Show
Winds Direction.

"The figure of a cock which moves
with the wind above a ball or globe is
a species of vane often seen in France
the idea to be conveyed, especially
to the minds of Britishers, no doubt
being that the Gallo cock doth Ger
crow the world, no matter how the
winds may shift and veer. Growing
and blowing are somewhat closely al
lied; they are other words for adver-
tisement, and vanes have been made
to act as advertising media often
enough. Thus, says Robert Machray,
writing in CasselFs Magazine about
"Quaint and Comic Vanes," 81 have
seen the efigy of COW above dairy,
OF a horse above a stable, of a fox
with hound at his heels over a hunt
ing lodge. l fancy that some of the
older 'publics, especially in the coun-
try districts, might show some very
quaint vanes representing the names
Of the houses. So, for example, might
the Pig and Whistle have had the
figure of pig as a yane, with the pig
made hollow in order that the wind
might whistle through it. At any
rate, swine vanes must at one time
have been quite common, for there
used to be saying that So-and-So
was cooking up his nose like pig in
the wind There Is, at least, one
kind of yane which is modern, and
that is the vane sometimes seen at
tached to the bonnet or hood or
'cowP of chimney pot. 1t is gen
orally of the simplest character-such
as an arrow or pennon, and if not
ornamental is certainly useful"

Too Big a Bill to Change.

Some time ago Ida Balk rendered a
street car conductor in Toledo a $40
bill in payment Of one fare. The con-
ductor refused to accept the bill on
the ground that he did not have
change for that amount and elected
the woman from the car She brought
suit against the company for damages
and the case was decided against her.
Judge Pugsley said in deciding the
case that it was unreasonable to ex-
pect the street car conductor to carry
that amount of change.

On the American platform to-day, the

more valiant defender of the principles
for which she fought and no peer in his
power to portray and impersonate that
peculiar product Of the OLD SoUTH-the
old-time negro, now so rapidly passing
away forever.

There is one monumentthat has never

the old negro who, during those four
long years, when her sons were shedding
their blood on many a battle field, re-
manned a faithful and valiant protector to
her women and children, praying for the
war to cease and the safe return of her
sons.
A most beautiful and feeling tribute
did Manship pay to this old-time negro,
and his impersonation of him has never
been surpassed.

the bill is filed at the instance of a

gives the traction companies the right

railroads ti,e right Ia haul passengers

statute books OF PENNSYLVANIA that
permits "A traction company Ia carry

to whether "A traction company, lack

IN the particular ease involved it
appears that the haulage of freight
over traction lines to which objection
Is made is by an express company
which makes collection and delivery
by special trolley cars rather than by
wagons. So far as We know, il has
