IN UBERANCE OF YOUTH.
Friendly Puppy Meets a Cross Cat in a
 Restaurant.


 He was one Of those enthusiastic young dogs who want to make friends all around. He came into a Sixth av- enue restaurant and approached every. body in his most cordial manner, prof fering his friendship promiscuously. Everybody received him with tolerant indifference, except the cat She hit him. She was rateful eat. Some people are like that. It is their pleas ure to be disagreeabls and quell the torrent of youthful spirits. This cat was black and white, with large blotches of yellow. She was not very young, says the New York Mail and Express. The dog retired quickly to the front of the restaurant He walled softly. His feelings were hurt and he wanted sympathy. He was not used to such unkind treatment. It was be- cause he was a young dog. The cat followed him cautiously, but aggres- s1vely. She hit him again. Then the kind gentleman who wants to prevent trouble opened the door and the pup limped out. He held up one leg and the blood dripped from it. After awhile if he doesn't get killed trying to make friends with a bulldog, he Will grow to be a big, sHr1y, cross dog, frightening little kitties with his cross growl and biting disagreeable cats with his strong teeth, or shaking them "y the neck until they are dead.

CULM BANKS AFlRE.
Coal Dust Near Wilkcsba.rre Burning for
 Twenty-Five Years.

Culm is curious stuff, and there seems to be an abundance of it. Peo- pie who travel through the mining re- gtons always inquire about the great mountains of coal dust that rise in every direction, some of them 200 feet in height. These piles of culm oftep catch fire either by accident or spon' taneous combustion, and it is almost impossible to extingush them. At night the red glare is visible all over the valleys Near Wilkesbarre culPl bank has been burning for p years. Various attempts have been made to quench the fire, but it is just as bright and vigorous today as it was a quar- ter of century ago, and the company having abandoned it's efforts to put out the fire, feeds 1t regularly by dumping fresh culm upon the flames. If this was not done the fire would eat it's way into the great bank and ultimate Iy break out in several places, but as long as the surface fire is fed with fresh fuel it does not burrow into the heap. Formerly culm was considered dead waste, but some years ago a furnace was invented in which it can be utilized for steaming purposes after water has passed over it and foreign substances washed out. Therefore, more of the mining companies have erected Washeries at their culm piles, and many manufacturing establish ments have come into this neighbor- hood solely because they are able to use it as fuel.-Chicago Record.

A Bill That Should Be Killed.

House bill No. 290 (Gray. of Inde- pendence), the title of which purports | to prevent the use of injurious chem
 icals in the preparation of food, is in fact intended to prevent the use of bi- tarttrate of potassium. the plain, old fashioned cream of tartar, in the prep
 aration of f@G1z As a matter of fact, cheam of tartar is the best leaYener for universal use the world over. and it would be just as reasonable to ob-
 ject to four in the kitchen as to pre-
 vent it's use. But lIr Gray's bill has
 a preliminary clause. in which the
 opinion is expressed that the use of b-tartrate of potassium .'is believed
 to impair and undermine the health of many people who Use it" On what
 authority does the author of this bill
 base this opinion? Science every where aecords the first place as a pure and absolutely harmless leayener to bi-tartrate of potassium Every iiOdot W lLt lii liit idIlt N Ill DtdE ltSll- mony to it's good qualities, and this is one of the first complaints ever heard of it's deleterious effects. The alum trust has had to answer some difficult questions within the past few months. and one of the methods appears to be to charge all rival concerns with re- suits which have been laid at it's own door. It is clearly evident that the Gray bill is in the interest of the alum trust, and no doubt the author has been imposed upon or he would not make the declaration that bi-tartrate of potassium is injurious to health
 There is absolutely no demand for it.. This is certainly one of the measures that should receive an effective blow at che hands of the bill-killer.-Little Rock fArk5 Democrat

The TactfuI Woman.

Tact is one Of the qualities abso. lutely necessary for social success. It is a weapon guided with numerous precautions and feminine wiles, and it is an attribute worthy and possible of being cultivated. 4 tactful woman knows the right thing to do and the right thing to say at the right time She is a good listener. sine has the ability to draw out the best there is in those people with whom she comes in contact and she thus gains the reputation for cleverness and other virtues which q person without tact will neYer win, no matter how eXcel- lent hey qualities of both heart and head 4 taetful woman generally gets her own way but she gets ft in ssch a manner that no one realizes that she is getting it. The fact is, a tactful woman knows just how far she can go. and she never presHmes to go beyond.-Ameriean Queer.

REFATHERS HONEST.
Ia Most Cases They Bought Their lands

In Most Cases They Bought Their lands
 from the Indians.
 Sometimes historians tell Us that T was only Di;tch1nen and not English men who bought the red mans land instead ol stealing it. Such state ments have been made in New York, but if We pass on to Philadelphia we hear that it was only QuakeIs who were thus scrupulous, and when We arrive in Baltimore we learn that it was only Roman Catholics. In point of fact, it was the invariabie custom of European settlers on this Atlantit coast to purchase the lands on wh ch usually recorded in a deed to which the Sagamores affixed their marks. Nor was the affair such a mocaery as it may at first though. seem to us, says a writer in the Atlan-ic Monthly. The red man got what he sorely cov- eted, steel hatchets anG grindstones glass beads and rum, pelhaps muskets and ammunition, while he was apt to reserve sundry rights of catching game and fish. \ s.~aggle was in- evitable VI. an the Whito mans agricul- ture encroacaca upon and exhausted the Indians hunting ground; ba. other circumstances usually brought it on long before that point was reached. The age of iron SUI arseded the stone age in America by he same law of progress that from .ime immemorial has been bearing humanity onward from brutal savagery to higher and more perfect life. In the course of it our forefathers certainly busted and dispessessed the red men, but they did not do it in spirit of robbery.

Arthur Pue German and his friends have determined that his candidacy for United States senator shall be the Democratic issue of the coming state campaign in Marylafd To that end the Democratic state convention which meets in June will indorse his candidacy, or, rather, declare it. Cor man, as an issue. has been twice de feated by the opposition to him in his own party combining with the Repub- licans. His lieutenants now say this opposition of other years has dwindled away. On the other hand, leaders of the independents in the former fights say that German will never again be a United States senator if they can prevent it. The German men control the party organization completely
