PRIVATE HoBsoN RETURNS.
A Soldier Supposed to Have Been
Killed in the Philippines

PHILADELPHIA. March 1T.-After
having been reported among the soldiers
killed in the Philippines and mourned as
dead by his relatives and friends Pri-
vate William II. HobsOn. jr., walked into
his old home, 2G7O East Allegheny Avenue,
on Friday. He was admitted to the house
by his mother. who almost collapsed from
joy. News of the boys return soon
spread, and he was the recipient Of an
ovation rarely accorded anyone in Port
Richmond. The young mans story was
that he had for months lowered between
life and death in one of the hospitals and
had been reported dead by his COM
nander.
Young Hobson enlisted on October 49,
1899, in Company II. Fortleth Infantry,
and almost at once was sent to the Phil
ippines. He wrote home regularly for
some time but finally his letters ceased
and then came the unofficial report that
he had been killed in battle. His father
several times wrote TO the Secretary Of
War for Information regarding the boy,
but nothing was heard from him until
he walked into the house on Friday. He
brought with him many Filipino curios
and an honorable discharge from the
army which gives him credit for having
seen hard service in a score Of hard
fought battles.

THE DUTY ON FALSE TEETH.
No Appeal to BE Taken From II New
York COURTS Decision.

The Treasury Department has directed
that no appeal be taken from a recent de-
cision of the United States Circuit Court
in New York declaring that imported
false teeth are dutiable at the rate Of
only IS per cent. and not at 80 per cent
as the Government has heretofore main
tanned. The case could be carried to the
Supreme Court, but Secretary Gage decid-
ed that the amount of revenue involved
does not justify the department in taking
any further steps. The Government held
that false teeth were dutiable as manu-
features of spar and the assessment
under the tariff law was therefore 50 per
cent. The importers asserted. and We're
sustained by the courts, that the teeth

You often hear of rendering n rattle
snake harmless by pulling out its
fangs. Then, again, you read of cases
where a serpent so treated has bitten
persons fatally. The reason for this-is
that Il poisonous snake is deprived only
temporarily of its venomous powers by
the extraction of the two incisors in
the upper jaw, at the bases of which
are the poison glands. OF course you
know that the fangs are hollow, so
that when the animal strikes the ven
ON gushes through them into the flesh
of the person struck. Now, by draw
ing the two teeth the snake may be
rendered harmless for few weeks,
but after short time the two teeth
just behind the original fangs move up
and take their places, making connec-
ton with the poison glands and thus
becoming poison fangs as good and eff
fective as the old ones.

QUAINT COLLEGE LAWS.
RuIes Prescribing the Dress of Har-
ward Students In ByEone Days.


ward Students In Bygone Days.
The curious laws regarding students
dress which prevailed at Harvard up to
the middle of the last century are illus
trated by two eighteenth century waist
coats which are among the collections
of the Boston Art museum. One was
worn by a member of the class of 1749
and the other by his son in 1884.
The latter waistcoat is olive green in
color, conforming to the college regula-
tions, which required either blue gray,
plain black, "nankeen"-a kind of buff
or olive. The coat and breeches which
originally went with it, as one may
read in the old time Harvard Laws"
were blue gray. Freshmen of that date
were allowed only plain buttonholes,
sophomores leaped to the dignity of
having buttons on their cuffs, juniors
might have inexpensive frogs to their
buttonholes except that they might not
have them on their cuff buttonholes.
and the senior enjoyed frogs, button
holes and buttons complete. Seniors
and juniors were permitted also to
wear black oxford gowns, such as are
worn at graduation today, and a might
gown" or dressing gown, was per-
missible on certain unimportant occa-
sions. 1t cost mot more than 10 shil-
lings" for every appearance of gold or
silver adornment.
The rules of costume were changed,
of course, from time to time In 1923,
for example, the prescribed dress con-
sisted of black mixed coat, single
breasted with n rolling cape square
at the end and with pocket flaps, the
waist reaching to the natural waist,
with lapels of the same length" 1t is
explained that ''black mixed" called
also Oxford mixed, was black with not
more than onc-twentieth nor less than
one-twentyfifth part of white. The
senior was allowed to support his dig
nifty with three crows feet of black
silk cord on the lower part of his coat
sleeve. Two crows feet We're permitted
to the junior one to the sophomore and
none at all to the freshman. The waist
coat was of black mixed or of black or,
when of cotton or linen fabric of white;
single breasted, with Il standing collar.
The pantaloons were OF black mixed.

THE MAGIC NUMBER.
4 Suggestion by the Cynic That Set
the Others Thinking.

II often hear of the magic number"
said some one. "What number is itT'
"Why, nine, of COURSE" replied some
one else. There are nine muses., you
know, and you talk of Il nine days
wonder. Then you bowl at ninepins,
and cat has nine lives"
NONSENSE broke in another. "Sev-
en- is the magic number. Seventh
heaven, don't you know, and all that;
seven colors in the rainbow, seven
days in the week, seventh son of a
seventh son-great fellow-and'-
"Tush, tush"' remarked a third.
"Five's the number you mean. A
man has five fingers on his hand and
five toes on his foot, and he has five
senses, and'-
Three Is undoubtedly the magic
number" interrupted another, because
people give three cheers, and Jonah
was inside whale three days and
three nights, and if at first you don't
succeed, try, try again-three times,
you see"
This was received with some con-
tempt by the company, and soulful
youth gushed out:
1.-TWO, oh, two is the magic num-
ber-oneself and one other, the adored
one-just two"
A hard featured individual, who had
been listening to the conversation hith-
erto unmoved, here remarked in a
harsh voice:
The magic number is number one
in this world, and if you want TO sue
ceed never forget it,"
An interval Of deep thought on the
part of all followed, after which they
went in silently to supper.-Pearson's

Colonel Sir L. III. Holdich. writing in
The Indian Borderland" of the terrible
storms and wind and snow which over
take the traveller on the high passes of
the Herat mountains, remarks on the
superior power of the horse to with
stand cold. In one such storm 'over
twenty men perished and many mules.
ALI the dogs with the caravan We're
dead, but, so far as | can remember,
40 horses. Yet some of the chargers of
the Eleventh Bengal lancers got slowly
on their legs the day after the blizzard
literally sheeted with ice as an ironclad
S sheeted with steel" 1t is a fact worth
noting that the horse will stand cold
where Il mule or a camel will not and
where dog will die.
