THE proverblal fondness Of Cucks
for water would lead one to presu,-
pose that of all the world the most
destitute of ducks would be the Sahara
Desert, and that If stray ''sprlng
tail happened to drift into that re-
gion he would either vamosa or turn
up his toes with briefest delay. We'll.
not at ALL said Frenchman now in
the city who was formerly Il resident
of Tunis. There are parts of the dcs-
ert where ducks abound flourish and
multiply with every evidence of per-
feet satisfaction. The fowl is slightly
different from any of the varieties we
know In this country, but il has tho
Same fiat bill. extensive breast and
web feet, showing that it was once
q water bird, though now it scarcely
hnds enough to drink, and has be-
como too proyident to waste any OF
the precious luids in ablutions. Like
the other good Mussulmans of the
country, they take their prescribed
bath In the sand, and their web feet
come in very handy as cnowshoes to
walk upon the deep, yielding dust. 1t
Is claia-d by an eminent French orni-
thologist that the saharan ducks are
the remains of race OF aquatic birds
which frequcnted those seas when the
present desert was n part of tho At

poses, why rot try some OF tho desert

Within you and song sublime
Forever sings,
And like it bids you ever climb

And yet pawn of destiny

What means the impulse unto me?

About the world men madly run,

There is so much that might be done
For humankind;
SO much. o God. that for one

Alone are great;

A curious fact that has been noted
in connection with rainfalls is that
gauges placed on roofs usually gather
less water than those placed on the
ground. This is accounted for on the
theory that the rain in falling absorbs
some of the moisture of the air, and
the greater distance it falls the larger
will be the bulk Of the individual
drops.

Matters Wherein women Arc mucn
More Credulous Than Men.
In all ages women have been supersti-
tious to a degree, and In these days Of en-
lightenment they are distinguished as far
more credulous In everything pertaining
to the supernatural than the members of
the opposite sex. One would be surprised
to learn the number of fair ones who
make a practice Of consulting the dream
book. With a credulity worthy Of a
darby nanny. II their sleep has been Wis
tied with unusual visions, they seize this
volume as soon as their eyes are fairly
open and look for an explanation. If mis-
fortune is foretold by it, the seeker aft
er knowledge assumes a bravado she Is
far from feeling.
81 don't care" she says to herself by
way Of bolstering up her courage. "1'm
not superstitious, anyway, and l don't
believe In such arrant nonsense" But
she's nervous just the same for couple
Of days, until other troubles have driven
this mythical one out of her mind.
There's one young woman. for instance
who never dreams Of a young child with
out shivering and shaking for days after.
In fear Of some dreadful thing happening
to her. She has not consulted dream
book on the subject, and so she doesn't
know how infants and bad luck became
connected In her mind, but nevertheless,
after she's had a visitant Of this sort
while sleeping she says prayers Of unusu-
al length and then makes mp her mind to
be patient under Affections sore.
She's an intelligent woman, mind You,
but she doesn't attempt to explain the
terror that besets her at this particular
dream.
She doesn't call herself superstitious-
Of course no woman does, not even the
one who won't walk under a ladder-but
her friends do not make a delight Of her
until she exposes some fetch Of theirs,
when the subject is carefully avoided

Curious Bit of History About Maceo
and Campos.

VuElOuB DIt Va NOooe 1AsSOSS
and Campos.
In connection with Maceo there Is q
curious bit of unpublished history well
worth the telling. Marshal Martinez
Campos and Antonio Maceo bore the re.
lationship of consanguinity Of the blood
in the second degree. Campos' father
was a colonel in the Spanish army and
military governor of the one time dis
trict of Mayari, Cuba, where Martinez
was born. His mother was of Cuban
Indian-African blood and first cousin to
the mother of Antonio Maceo. The IA
Their took the infant Martinez to Spain,
where under Spanish law a man takes his
nativity from the place Of his church con-
irmation or baptism, and there the child
was legitimatized and educated for MILL
tary life.
Both Campos and Maceo were aware
Of the relationship between them. and,
although bitter contestants on the field
of battle, they held each other in great
personal esteem, Campos having the high
est admiration for the military genius of
his cousin, for after the treaty Of Ian
Jon, when even Gomez had accepted the
peace terms, Campos wrote to the war
department at Madrid that "while Anto-
MO Maceo is still in the field the war can
not be considered as ended" Later, aft
er pursuing Maceo for nine days. Cam
pos captured the stretcher or hammock
in which the revolutionary chief, with
nine wounds In his body, had been car
ried for SO hours. But the stretcher was
empty. Maceo had eluded his pursuers.
But when the Castilian field marshal be-
gan to retrace his steps to Santiago his
troops were harassed by Maceo's men all
along the road, and before they got out Of
the mountains Maceo in person led an at
tack upon them. Yet some weeks later
when, through the British consul at San
tiago, Campos solicited an interview with
Maceo, which was accorded him, such
was his confidence In the latter's good
faith that he went alone to meet his cous-
In in La Sabana.
Maceo, who came with his immediate
personal staff, was much taken aback to
find the commander in chief Of the Span
ish forces there without a single attend
ant and Immediately dismissed his own
men. They talked for two hours, but Ma
Geo would not surrender. Finally. how
ever, he agreed to leave the island, dis
banding bis men and burying his arms,
provided the British consul would come
out for him and provide him with trans
portation to Jamaica under the British
flag. Maceo never surrendered to Spain.
