DESTRUCTIVE FLAMES.

Swept Away-Loss 100000.

NASHVILLE, Feb. 4-The ex-
tensive lumber plant of w. b. Earth
man & Co., located within the
square bounded by Clinton, Watkins
and Park streets and the tracks of
the Nashville, Chattanooga & st.
Louis Railway Company, was
visited by disastrous fire last night.
The entire plant, with the exception
Of the planning mill running along

magic, and adjoining property was
damaged considerably. The flames,
however, were stayed by the de-
termined, we'll directed work of the
fire department at time when the
destruction of the large manufactur-
ing establishment in close proximity
to the EArthman plant seemed al
most a surety.
The loss of the T. lrthman property
is estimated to be in the neighbour
hood OF $4,000. The damage &c

The Hens DeIusIon.

Ephraim Knox lived in the center
of his native village, and his hens
wandered here and there at their
own sweet will, to the frequent an
noyance of his neighbors. Ephraim,
however, was no respector of persons,
and considered his hens AS good as
anybody" and desirable visitors.
When it was decided that the
town library should be built in a
vacant lot next door to him"
Ephraim was filled with pride and
j y, and he and his hens superin-
Cended operations from the first.
Ephraim's brother Seth was not
devoted to hens. One day he was
passing the site of the library with a
friend and stopped to view the pro-
gress of affairs. Ephraim's hens
were there, cackling away as If their
lives depended upon it. Seth
looked at them in disgust.
What in the world are those hens
making such noise tor, do you sup
pose? There amt any grain in here"
said the friend.
WELL" remarked Seth, dryly,
they've had the oversight of most
every thing in town. You know the
cornerstone of the building was laid
yesterday, and l calc'late that that
speckled hen over there thinks she
laid it. Youths Companion.

Towne's Salary as Senator.

Mr.. Towne's salary as Senator
amounted to S7l2 His mileage from
Duluth to Washington and return
amounted to 1888, so that he will
draw about $1,000 for filing Cush-
man X. Davis shoes for fifty six
days. His speech to day contained
20 600 words. Thus Mr.. Towne has
been paid by the United States just
five cents a word and S. 80 a minute
for his services as Senator from
Minnesota.
Mr.. Towne prepared another
speech, but did not deliver it, and it
does not count in the calculation.
The suppressed speech attacked the
entire policy of the Republican
party on trusts. ship subsidy,
finances and Imperialism, but the
party leaders induced Mr.. Towne to
devote his speech entirely to the
Philippines Washington telegram
to the New York Herald.

Milking Vicious Cows.

Next time you have a vicious
heifer to break, try this method. Put
a strong halter on her and tie her up
to post in the cow yard fence,
bringing her head close up; then
take long rope and tie it to
the post foot or 80 below her nose I;
crowd her up close alongside the
t. nee, bring the rope around her,
letting it pass along her shoulder,
side and hip, and tie to the next
post behind her. She will then be
held firmly against the fence. LII
she shows -igns of kicking, pass a
strap around her hind legs behind
the udder and draw them together
and buckle them there. We have
never found the COW we could not

How the World is Ruled.

There is only one woman ruler in
the world, so if we are to take a COM
parison in this regard the superiority
of man as a dominating Influence
must be conceded at the overwhelm-
ing ratio of seventy-five to one.
Queen Wilhelmina OF Holland req
resents the sex as it is sceptered.
This is the way the worlds power is
represented:
Twenty-Five Presidents.
Sixteen Kings.
Eleven Dukes.
Six Emperors.
Five Princes.
Five Sultans.
Two Khans.
Two Ameers.
Que Queen.
One khedive.
One shah.
Que Bey.
OAe Mikado.
One Maharajah.
One Rajah.
Only two of these rulers have more
than one title. King Edward is also
Emperor of India, and William OF
Germany, is both Emperor and
King. Sidi Ali Pacha, Bey OF
Tunis, is the oldest ruler, having
been born in 1917. He ante-dates
Queen Victoria by two years. The
youngest active ruler, excluding the
little Alfonso Of Spain, is the CIR
Queen of Holland.
A glance at the incomes OF Euro
pean rulers shows our own Presi
