FruitIess Attempt Of . sIanderer g

A sewing machine agent in Germany
wanted to SANDER an employe whom
he had quarreled with and discharged.
He did not call it SANDER, but he knew
that his enemy would. and possibly
the courts also, and as the penalties
for that oflense are likely to be heavy
in the kaiseT's realm he sought out a
way i'm which he could gain the desired
end without endangerng his own
safety. An inspiration came to him,
and purchasing "A photograph roll he
went to the village inn, placed il into
the instrument which was in the tap
room and talked it full of things about
his sometime friend, relates the New
York Commercial Advertiser.
Later in the day the patrons of the
inn came in to have ,heir beer, and, as
was their custom, some of them
dropped coins into the photograph
and set it a-talling. The result was
appalling TO them. The photograph
told the most shocking tales about one
whom they had considered hitherto
much respected and altogether TO be
praised if not admired fellow citizen,
tales they knew not to be true. They
hurried TO the slandered man, and in
the course Of time he brought an ac-
tion against his former employer.
The latter pleaded that he had not in

monograph was the guilty one. The
monograph was brought into court
and turned on 10 give its testimony,
but il refused TO work. However, the
judge decided that the defendant was
at least an active accompiice in the
SANDERS and fined him so marks.

WHEAT FIELD IN SHIPS HOLD.
F,.-al< of Nature In british Tramp
Steamer Presents strange
sight.

A field Of grain in a steamships hold
was one Of the curious sights recently
seen in the port Of Philadelphia. The
vessel was the British tramp Elwick.
Many persons were attracted To the
ship TO view the interesting exhibit,
SAYS a report from that city.
The Elvick. under command of Capt.
Clark, has been running between Phil
adelphia and English ports, carrying
wheat and corn in bulk. She returned
from tide other side on her last voyage
partially ballasted with dirt. II was
owing TO the latter that the growth Of
grain was possible.
The interesting discovery was made
bva foremost hand who had occasion
TO go into the hold. He reported to
the captain that the Elwick was grow
ing a wheat crop. Capt. Clark made
an investigation and found that such
was indeed the case.
Many grains OF wheat remained
secreted i'm hooks and corners in the
hold after the ship had been dis
charged on the other side. and the
pitching Of the vessel on her trip TO the
United States caused them to fall upon
the dirt. The grain soon sprouted in
the warm and damp hold and it now
presents a remarkable appearance.

GREYHOUNDS FEAR COYOTES.
Unaccountable Loss OF Courage in an
Animal That l. Otherwise
HraNe.

A greyhound is not always brave.
and one thing he is particularly
afraid Of is an animal respected by
no one-an animal that sinks along
in a cowardly manner and about
which no writer has as yet found
anything TO admire. Why this is
do not know, says a writer in Ma
ture. for the animal Of which i speak

the great western hills and valleys,
never doing any real wrong and add
ing much TO the wild pictrresqueness
of the country. l mean the coyote.
And yet of the coyote, the poor un-
loved, cowardly coyote, the grey
hound is afraid. He will run down a
rabbit, seize him by the throat and
with a jerk break his neck, and then
carry him to his master. But let a
coyote come in sight, and the grey
hound loses his courage. As long as
the coyote keeps running the hound
will run after him, but as soon as the
coyote stops short and faces about,
the greyhound turns and runs away
as fast as he can. A coyote never does
more serious harm than TO prowl
about the village streets at night in
the winter i'm search of meat, which
some unwary housekeeper may have
left outside. At the slightest grow
he fees.
