Arninst roollnr wlth n Revolyer.

There are few lines in 'The Art
Of Revolver Shooting" a recent book
by Mr.. Walter Winans, the noted re-
volver shot Of Great Britain, which
were specially penned for a small but
dangerous class Of people.
Mr.. Winans once left a revolver ly-
ing on table in his tent at Blsley dur
ing a competition. Some visitors
dropped in, one by one, to lunch. First
came an elderly lady. She sat down
near the table, and her eye immediate
ly fell on the revolver She snatched
it up with a laugh, and pointing it at
Mr.. Winans, said:
"In shoot your
"Put it DOWN. said Mr.. Winans,
speaking as peremptorily as a host
may. The lady obeyed, and Mr.. WI
mans explained to her how injudicious
it was to point n revolver at any one
how it might have been loaded, and
so on.
While he was speaking in came
clergyman. He sat down and began
talking pleasantly. All at once his eye
caught the revolver. Selling 1t and
roaring with laughter he pointed it at
Mr.. Winans, saying:
"Now I'll shoot your
IL locked up that revolver" is Mr..
Winan's grim comment. And he would
have been glad, we may be sure, to
have made the same disposal, tenn
porarily at least, Of his silly guests.
Had the jocularlty Of the lady or the
clergyman resulted fatally, as similar
conduct has often done, the plea at
the coroner's inquest would have been

Highest OF WaterFnlIs.

The highest waterfull in the world,
geography tells us, is the Cerosola Cas-
cade, in the Alps, having a fall of 2400
feet that of Aryey, in Savoy, Is HOO
feet, and the falls of Yosemite Valley
range from TOO to 1000 feet. But high
er yet is the waterfall in the San
Cuayatan Canon, in the State of Dur
ango, Mexico. 1t was discovered by
some prospectors. ten years ago, in the
great barranca district which is called
the Tlerras Desconocidas While
searching for the famous lost mine,
Naranjal, a great roar of water was
heard. With great difficulty the party
pushed on, and up and down the
mighty chasms until they beheld the
superb fall that is at least 5000 feet
highland Of Sunshine. 90.

PerIls of the Presidencr.

All of the Presidents from Wash
lngton to Mckinley have been in the
habit of mingling freely with the peo-
pie. and usually without any particu-
lar precaution being made for their
personal safety. The danger of this
procedure was pointed out more than
n hundred years ago, in the case Of
the country's first President. Said
Count de Moustier, Louis XVI.s min
lister to the United States, to an Amer
lean acquaintance I'm New York in
1889, as he saw Washington, passing
freely through the streets Of that city.
Your republican chiefs confidence
in the people Is magnificent, but it is
perilous.' Louis Globe-Democrat.
