CHINESE PEANUTS.
They Are Nohing But the American
"GOobers" Prepared by the
CeIestials

The trans-American railways have
their agents in all parts of the world
commercial agents, industrial agents,
car service agents and oriental agents,
as well as the regular assortment and
variety of freight and passenger
agents. The oriental agent of the
Great Northern railway in this city,
says the New York Press, is Mr.. Moy
WI Yen, highly interesting China
man, who carries in his pockets hand
full of Chinese peanuts with which,
from time to time, he regales his
friends. In the midst of business he
suddenly conceals his hand beneath
his blouse and asks: "Will you try a
Chinese peanut?" The hand, soft as
that of a gentle maiden, reappears
with the nuts, and you are tempted.
I You yield with pleasure, accepting
one. 1t resembles the native "goober,"
which ex-Gov. Campbell failed to cor
ner, but is the most delicious morsel
in the nut shape that you ever tasted.
Mr.. Moy laughingly tells you, when
you ask where more nuts can be had,
that they are not Chinese peanuts at
all, but the familiar old Virginia
'goober'' prepared in the Chinese
fashion. "We take the raw nut" he
explains, ''and dry it perfectly in the
sun, leaving it many days on the
housetop. Then we soak it in salt wa
ter-brine, you call it-for three days,
after which we again dry it thorough
ly. This may take week. Then we
put it in an oven in pan of very hot
sand, and continually stir until it is
cooked well done. That is all. Moth
ing could be more simple. The peanuts
the Italians roast in their sheet-iron
cylinders-no Chinaman would torch
one! We say Chinese peanuts to have
fun with our friends. There are no
Chinese peanuts

HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA.
Soon to Pass from Control of British
Military Authorities Into q
Naval Station.

Halifax will soon cease to be a
military station and pass exclusively
under the control of the British adj
miralty. This statement was lately
made in official quarters, says the
Ottawa (Ont.) Citizen.
Halifax has been military station
since 1749, and it is now proposed to
make the city one of the greatest
naval stations in the world In addi-
t1on to the men of the fleet there
will be a reserve consisting of about
1000 soldiers and marines, of which
QUO will be marine artillerymen. This
naval reserve force will retained here.
Information states also that royal
engineers will be retained and con-
tinue under and in charge of the
submarine department.. The royal
marine artillery belonging to the re-
serve force will be required to man
the forts, and will, when necessary,
be assisted by sailors. It is the in
tention to station in Halifax regi-
ment known as the royal garrison
regiment. This will be recruited
from time-expired men, who will be
required to serve four years before
going on regular service. The gar
rison will, of course, be under com
mand of the admiralty, and the Brit
ish admiral will replace the army
general, who has hitherto command
ed the station.
1t is also stated that the works at
Esquimault will also be transferred
wholly to the admiralty department.
A military officer stated in CONVEX
sation the other morning that he
would not be surprised should an
nouncement be made that the impe-
rial government had decided to con-
struct and operate factory near
Halifax for the manufacture of small
arms and ammunition.

April 10 is the great fete day of "Ba-
lukli," or place of fishes. This is
small church situated outside the walls
of Constantinople, and it enjoyed no
particular reputation before the con-
quest of Constantinople by the Turks.
At the time Of the invasion, however, a
monk was cooking some fish there
when a messenger came and told him
that the Turks had entered CONSTANT
nople. The monk did not believe the
story and said he would sooner believe
that the half cooked fish would jump
back into the water. AS he spoke the
fish jumped back into the water, and
since then the place has had great
reputation for its healing powers.
A church has been built over the
spring dedicated to Our Lady of the
Fishes" and on this day a regular pill
grimage takes place from all parts Of
the town. Many sick are carried thith-
err, and many miraculous cures are re-
ported. The truth of the story is proved
by the presence in large marble lined
tank in the church of the lineal de-
scendants of the half cooked fish. Any
one who does not believe has only to
look in the water, and he will see them,
brown on one side and white on the
other, swimming about at their ease.

The Fruits of War,

! Not long ago l visited the town Of
Novara, in northern Italy. There in a
wheatfield the farmers have plowed
up skulls Of men until they have piled
up a pyramid 10 or II feet high. Over
this pyramid some one has built can
opy to keep off the rain. These were
the skulls Of young men of Savoy, Sar-
Ainia and Austria-men of IS to 30
years Of age, peasants from the farms
and WOrkmen from the shops-Who
met at Novara to kill each other over
a matter in which they had very little
concern.
Further on Frenchmen, Austrians
and Italians fell together at Magenta,
the hue of the blood that flowed out
under the olive trees. Go over Italy
as you will there is scarcely a spot not
crimsoned by the blood of France,
scarcely a railway station without its
pile Of French skulls. You can trace
them across to Egypt, to the foot of
the pyramids. You will find them in
Germany-at Jena and Leipsic, at Lut-
zen and Bautzen and Austerlitz. You
will find them in Russia at Moscow,
in Belgium at Waterloo. "a boy can
stop a bullet as well as a man." said
Napoleon. And with the rest are the
skulls and bones of boys "ere evening
to be trodden like the grass. "-Popular
Science Monthly.

Pnn.Americnn Pninrs

Every visitor to the Pan-American Tx
position is more than pleased, and even
surprised at the wonderful display pro-
vided by the Exposition management.
Not only are the buildings beautiful in
line and color, but the stupendous electri-
cal illuminations which at night decorate
the great structure are most dazzling in
effect.
From New England the lines of the
Boston & Maine are the most direct to
Buffalo. The service by this line is not
only the quickest, but is the most com
plete and also the shortest. The route
through Northern Massachusetts known
as the HOosac Tunnel or DeerheId Valley
route is one OF the most charming and
picturesque in the country, and the rate
to the Pan'Amercan city or Niagara is
exceptionally low. For tourists from
Boston & Maine territory a particular
advantage is the absence of transfer
acros the city of Boston, for Buffalo
trains depart from the North Union Sta
ton.
The General Passenger Department of
the Boston & Maine Railroad, Boston,
has gotten out an attractive illustrated
pamphlet on the Pan.American EXPOSE
ton, which is sent free for the asking.

The Prayer before GettysburS.

1ne Erayer before UeIIyBDuFS
General Daniel Sickles told q story
illustrating the tenderness of President
Lincoln's heart as well as his faith In
Providence and his beautiful optimism.
After Sickles had been wounded at
Gettysburg he was removed to Wash
ington, and the president called on him
at the hospital. When the general
described the battle and the awful
slaughter, Lincoln wept like a child"
"While the two armies were converg-
ing" said Lincoln, II went into my
room and prayed as never prayed be-
fore. 1 told God that if we were to
win the battle he must do it, for had
done all that could. 1 went from my
room with a great load lifted from my
shoulders, and from that moment l
never had doubt as to the result. We
shall hear good news from Grant, who
has been pounding away at Vicksburg
for so many months. | am in a pro-
phetic mood today, Sickles, and l say
that you will get we'll"
"The doctors do not say So"
81 don't care, Sickles, you will get
we'll" persisted the president.
And that afternoon, General Sickles
goes on to say, a telegram was receiy-
ed from General Grant announcing the
fall of yicksburg. His own recovery
soon followed.

BuIInghters Afraid of Cows.

1t will probably not surprise our
readers to hear that most Spanish bull
fighters object to fighting cows. The
real reason may, however, astonish
them. 4 sportsmanlike objection to
prosecuting female animal has moth
ing whatever to do with it. The fact is
that the average toreador is sincerely
afraid of a COW.
And he has good reason. The cows Of
the half wild breed used for the arena
are much quicker in their movements
than are the bulls. Their horns are
more pointed and more formidable.
They do not lower their heads to the
ground, shut their eyes and charge like
n locomotive upon the rails, but are
alert and ready to follow every move
ment Of their prosecutors. Their war
like tactics have been adapted not to
blind. bovine frontal attacks, but to the
strategy of active and cunning beasts
of prey, of which the human bulltighter
is only a feeble mimic. If these cheap
idols of the Spanish populace would
face young and active wild cows which
had lust been robbed of their calves,
they might perhaps forestall the butch
err but they would, at any rate, do
something to earn their laurels.-Pear-
sons.

To the drones nature has certainly
been very bountiful. They are very
large and strong, have a helmet made
Of enormous black pearls, two lofty
quivering plumes, doublet Of rides
cent, yellowish velvet, q heroic tuft and
a fourfold mantle, translucent and
rigid.
While the workers have 10000 facets
to their eyes, the drones are gifted with
10000; while the workers have 5000
olfactory cavities in their antenn9, the
drones have over 10000. While the
workers are laboring for the benefit Of
the community the drones sail off every
bright morning into space, irresistible,
glorious, and TRANQUILITY make for the
nearest flowers, where they sleep till
the afternoon freshness awakes them.
Then, with the same majestic pomp
and still overlooking with magnificent
schemes, they return to the hive, go
straight to the cells, plunge their heads
to the neck in the watts Of honey and fill
themselves tight as drum to repair
their exhausted strength, whereupon,
with heavy steps, they go forth to meet
the good dreamless and careless slum-
Der that shall fold them in its embrace
till the time for the next repast.-Mae-

A person can easily determine with
one indulgence whether or not open
air bathing is hurtful to him. If cir
culation is speedily restored after he
has left the water, if his skin is well
Redeemed and he is soon well warmed
up and as strong and "lively" as when
he took his first plunge, then he may
properly assume that his bath has done
him good. If, on the other hand, his
skin continues cold and clammy for 10
or 20 minutes, Notwithstanding the
brisk rubbing he gives himself, and for
an hour or more afterward he is weak,
dull and languid, then he may be toler-
ably certain that there is something
wrong with him which forbids cold
bathing.

zone beautiful spring morning an
editor found a golden hair lying be-
tween the pages of a manuscript" y
writes Edward Box in The Ladies
Home Journal. "The moment he reach
ed the page it gracefully t1uttered out.
Flushed with excitement, the editor
caught it. 1t was not his hair, he ar
gued, therefore it was not his property.
Then, again, he thought, the owner
probably lost it and might need it. so
he put it back. He was a methodlcal
man, and he replaced it exactly as he
had found it, lie was not many days
older when he received a letter proving
by the very hair he had so deXterously
caught and conscientiously replaced
that he never had read or, even opened

ANYTHING have been a clearer case
against the editor? Most certainly not.

substance in springs and brooks and
keeping the water pure, thus proving
themselves most worthy Of kind treat

expert jumpers and swimmers, and
