mont, I0XaS.
Well boringis still going on-all
over southwestern Louisiana, and
Mr.. Todd, writing to the New
Iberia Enterprise, believes that
the discovery of this vast mass
of valuable water some 200 to 300
feet below the level Of the land,
is as momentous a discovery for
our state as that made by Bore
when he first successfully cry
stabilized sugar and made it a mer-
charitable product of Louisiana.
Mr.. Todd in his article has gone
on with series Of figures indi-
eating enormous possible profits
in the industry at present. We
should say that while great pro
fits have been made during re
cent years in Southwestern Lou
isiana in rice culture, ii is only
fair to expect that these profits
will diminish yearly ,and that the
industry will come down to suc1
a level as to require hard work
and the highest degree Of excel
ence in order to maintain it, but
that at the same time there is
every reason to believe that the
rice industry CAN be made one OF
the leading industries in our
state during ali time to com e, and
that the highest degree of tinan,
cial success in that direction vii
probably be had in Southwes terri
Louisiana, where thus far the
planters have suffered less from
the expensive wedding of rice
which is sucn an essential Tea
ture of the industry along the
Mississippi river.
; A peculiar feature to which MI
J Todd calls attention is that rice
f irrigated by well water has givel
better returns than the rice IL
+ rigated by bayou water, MIR. Todt
, indicating an average Of goo'
, bayou irrigation as being !abou
10 barrels yield per acre, whil'
the fields irrigated by well waite
have given Is barrels per acre
y The cause of this is said to b
y that the water is not saline, bu
fresh and pure, and perhaps COZ
d tanning some fertilizing ingred
If ents.
l. In his peroration Mr.. Tode
II with his eyes on the future, say
There are thousands of acre
of land in Vermilion, Calcesie
:, Acadia waiting for wells. Whe
;. they are in operation over tn
r, Incompatible region neither tt
rich valleys Of the old or ne
world will rival it in wealth Of i
4 products. The people of OF
Ill prairies would then be inde'
l. lords of creation.

TITLES THAT WERE REFUSED.
Gladstone, Dickens, Verdi, Huxley and TyndaI Might Have Been
 Lords Had They Cared To.

While the majority of mankind seek titles with persistent industry, there are others who actually refuse to &C., cept the same. Gladstone was notable example of the latter order of humanity, for the peerage which time after time was held out to him was always rigidly rejected, says writer in Stray Stories.
 Swinburne might have had "Sir" before his name had he chosen to ac- cept the baronetcy which was offered him some years ago, but with true democratic independence he refused to accept a title which, after all, could do little to enhance his fame.
 Similarly, MT. Watts, R. A., whose pictures are known the wide world over, could have ranked with Lord Leighton had not he stoutly asserted his objection to titles and elected to remain as he was.
 Lord Tennyson, when first ap- preached on the question of accept ing peerage, was strongly opposed to the idea, but eventually suc- cumbed to the offer on the ground buaG HIS SUI WOulu llHCliI bhC J1b1Cp and that he was therefore justified in taking it.
 It is rumored that the late Prof. Huxley was offered a knighthood by MT. Gladstone-an offer which was politely but firmly declined. A sim- liar honor was proposed to his dis tinguished contemporary, Prof. Tyn- dal, and was also declined without hesitation.
 It is an open secret that Charles Dickens might have added the word "bart'' to his illustrious name had he chosen to do so.
 A few years before the demise of Verdi, the illustrious composer, the late King Humbert sent for the maestro and offered him a dukedom in recognition of his services to mus sic. Verdi refused the gracious offer with dignified courtesy. whereupon the king admitted that he was quite right.
 "For," said his majesty, "all the titles in Italy could not make you greater than you are."

QUEEN ELIZABETH's CHAIRS.
Some of Them Are Still Preserved at RushbrOOke, in Suffolk,
 England.

Curiously interesting, says the Lon- don Lady's Pictorial, are the Queen Elizabeth chairs. In the days when Sir Robert Jermyn owned the large red-brick moated mansion at Rush- brooke, Suffolk, her majesty, Queen Eliza beth, and the French ambas- sadors were several times entertained by him, with which charges and courtesies they stood marvelously contented" The Eliza bethan hall still displays as much dignity as when royalty feasted beneath it's spacious roof, and nobles and ladies in all the splendor of the sixteenth century waited upon their sovereign within it's massive walls. A great deal of in- terest attaches to the two old chairs, which formed part of the suite used by Queen Elizabeth when she visited Rushbrooke hall, and which are still retained by the present owner, Wynd- ham Rushbrooke, Esq, IS mementoes of her majesty's visits. The high- backed armchair is of carved beech, the back and seat are upholstered with the original Genoa velvet with chenille borders. The arms and legs are carved and pierced; cabriole con. nected with carved scrolled rail in front. The back rails are turned. The chair at his side is also high- back armchair, with scrolled legs and arms. The front bar between the legs is carved with the royal crown and scrolls; the top rail and splats at the back are carved with cupids and royal crown; the seat and back are of cane.

One Way of Owning a Diamond.

A young man who works in Chest nut street store, bought a diamond ring some time ago. He was to pay for 1t on the installment plan, $15 a month. He made the first payment and the diamond was delivered to him. At the end of the first month the col. lector came around again. The young man was broke. Finally he went to pawnbroker, borrowed $15 on the ring and paid the pawnbroker. In three weeks he got the ring out by paying $16.50. Then in another week the collector came around again. Once more the ring was pawned. Then 1t became struggle for the young man to get the ring out in time to pawn it again, but he did. It has now been four months since the diamond was purchased. The young man is paying double interest and the pawnbroker is custodian of the ring.-Philadelphi Times.

Making Soap Bubbles.

Making soap bubbles is great sport for the little folks, but it is twice as much fun to make big ones that will not break when they are floated to the floor. To make these big bubbles. take a piece of white castillo soap. about as big as a walnut. Cut 1t up into a cup of warm water and then add a teaspoonful of glycerine. Stir well and blow from a small pipe. This quantity of soap bubble material will make enough for one day. To color the bubbles pink add a few drops of strawberry juice and to im- part yellow tint add little orange juice.

RAGING IN THE SOUTH.

Since Nashville, Tenn, ceased, some years ago, to give an annual race meet ing for harness horses, that branch of sport has made no great progress in the South. Atlanta, Birmingham, and few other cities have held meetings of fair proportions but none of them have risen to the first rank, their pro- motors very wisely believing that with care they can be grown to become inn portant yearly events, even though their beginning was modest. In conse- quence Lexington, Ky, has been the only Southern city to hold an annual harness meeting of national import ance. This year Memphis makes it's debut and will have racing carnival October 21 to 26 inclusive that promises to be one of the very greatest ever held. A new mile track, with mouern buildings of every sort, has been built, at total cost of $250, 1000, and experts say 1t is the most complete plant in the world, devoted entirely to trotting and pacing. For the inaugural meeting the sum of $35,000 will be distributed in stakes and purses. Not far from 500 of the best horses in training have been entered for the various races. They come from almost every State in the Union, including far-off California. New England, New York and Pennsylvania will be repre- sented. There will be no lack of great horses, noted drivers and prominent owners, and the meeting will mark new era in the history of harness rac- ing in Tennessee, State that gave to the world the first two-minute pacer, Star Pointer, 1:59A, and the master reinsman, Edward F. Geers, who has driven no less than four horses to worlds records, and whose achieve ments on the turf this year have fur nished sensational climax to his al- ready eventful history. It is the in- tention to make the annual meeting at Memphis, including the one of this year, as good as the best, and the result will undoubtedly be a revival in the breeding interests that will be worth thousands of dollars to the people of Tennessee

A Nice Man.

"Supposing," said MT. Cirrus Bark CT during a pleasure trip on an excur sion boat, that I were to fall over board. What would you do?''
 "Oh!' exclaimed Mrs. Barker with a gasp, "I'd cry my eyes out"
 T knew it. That's just like a wo- man. Always looking for a way to make matters worse. Can't you see that crying wouldn't do the slightest good and that it would only make the water that much deeper?"

Pulling Teeth With the Fingers.

We learn from the Medical News that pr. Charles E. Coughlin of Indianapolis, has discarded the forceps in pulling teeth and has adopted the primitive rule of the Chinese by using the index finger for the purpose. He believes that the sight of the forceps constitutes the narrowing part of tooth pulling and that many nervous per sons are almost as shocked at the sight Of the instrument as they would be if cooked revolver were presented at their heads. He can take out the most firmly rooted double tooth in a few seconds. and that without causing pain comparatively speaking. "It is all done with the thumb and forefnger of the right hand" he declares, "and does not require any great strength, for it is not performed by main force." he learned the art from a Chinese practitioner.-The Druggists Circu. lar.
