A touching story of two friends 70
told by William Beatty Kingston In
his Journalists Jottings." They were
two officers in the English army who
quarreled about some trif1e and, al
though they had been the closest Of
comrades, became in consequence en-
drely estranged. The fact of their sep
aration was extremely bitter to both Of
them, and one Christmas day one Of
them received from the other q card
bearing dove with an olive branch.
The recipient kept the message By
him for twelvemonth and on the fol-
lowing Christmas sent 1t back to his
fellow officer, who in turn laid It aside
for year and then dispatched II en-
the next anniversary.
Through three successive decades, 1t
each Christmastide, the mute messen-
ger was regularly sent in token Of con-
tinued friendship until year came
when it was forgotten because the
present possessor was too harassed by
financial losses to remember it. In the
course Of the Christmas week. how.
ever, his wife came upon the card and
sent it off TO her husbands friend with
newspaper cutting referring to her
husbands bankruptcy. The returning
post brought her a letter. inclosing f1.-
600, and explaining that the sender had
just come into fortune and that ia
return for this trifiing sum, intended
for his old friends rescue, he should
keep the Christmas card as hs most
precious possession.

The street.. of ADELAIDE.

The streets of Adelaide, Australia,
are laid out as regularly as those Of
Washington or Philadelphia. They run
due north and south and due east and
west. The danger of rectilineal stiffness
is avoided by the skillful interposition
of squares and gardens. King William
street is 132 feet wide and has some
magnificent buildings Of white free
stone taken out Of quarries fifteen miles
from the city.
But most beautiful of an Is North
terrace, with its museum, its art gal
lery-the best in Australia-its library.
its School of Mines and its botanical
gardens. The gardens cover more than
a hundred acres and are an inexhausti-
BILE delight and instruction. Under wide
spreading trees, many Of them intro
duced from the old country, are dax-
zling flower beds and leafy walkA.
There are rosaries, too. and palmhouses
and museums of economic botany that
would do credit to Kew itself.

One of the striking differences in the
characteristics of men and women is
that women like new things, while men
are loath to part with old things to
which they have grown attached. Old
pipes. old penknives. old walking sticks
these are the pets Of most men, while
some even carry their affection for old
things to articles of wearing apparel.
In the matter Of penkniyes nearly all
men are alike. A sign in front of an
Arch street cutlery establishment reads,
"Old Pocketknives Repaired" and a
clerk in the store explained that that
branch Of the business was quite equal
to the sale of new knives. about the
only people who buy new knives" he
said, "are women, who give them to
men as presents. A man seldom buys
a new knife. He brings his old one, to
be fixed. As an illustration of this, 1

Flavor OF Roots.

The carrot owes its fattening powers
to the sugar and its flaver to peculiar
fatty oil; the horseradish derives its
flavor and blistering power from a vol
atile acrid oil. The Jerusalem artichoke
contains 141s per cent Of sugar anu 8
per cent of inulin "a variety of starch.
besides gum and peculiar substance
to which its flavor is owing. Garlic
and the rest of the onion family derive
their odor from yellowish. volatile,
acrid oil, but they are nutritious from
containing nearly half their weight Of

fined.

selecting pistol he rushed out of the
door without paying for it and ex-
claimed that he was going to kill him
self He hurried into Yarbrough's s sa-
loon, two doors away, and handing the
bartender a note, walked over in the
corner, pulled out the pistol, stuck it to
his head and shot himself. Floyd fell
to the floor and lay in pool Of blood.
1t was thought at first he was dead,
but he showed signs of life and after
wards was brought to and carried to his
home up town, where his life is now
hanging by thread. The ball entered
near his right temple and went through
his head.
The note Floyd left the bartender was
addressed to his mother, and read as
follows:
Dear Mother-I know this will break
your old heart, but 1 cannot help it.
Take care of my children, and bury me
by my brother, Bob"

PLYMOUTH, England, June 19.-The

S;l5 a. m. today, having beaten her own
speed record. She covered 3,O82 miles
in days, ii hours and 81 minutes, at
an average speed of 90. 80. against 28. SO,
her best previous record Her daily
runs were 449, $40, 542, 542, $40 and 46O
knots, none Of which equal her previous
best days run, made in August, 1900,
which was 500 knots.
Captain Albers, her commander, in
formed representative of the Associated
Press that he had never said his vessel
could make the distance inside of five
days. No special effort to attain high
speed was made. The weather on the
whole was favorable to a fast passage.
The first day out the wind was blowing
hard and the sea was smooth. The sec
0nd day strong westerly wind blew.
The third day the sea was very rough.
For the rest of the passage fresh winds
and moderate seas prevailed.
The passengers seemed quite ignorant
OF any attempt at record breaking.
