A Golf Story.

A we'll known Scotch "meenister"
took up golf and despite great practice
could not succeed in passing the tyro
stage. His simple exclamations Of
"Tut. tut!' ooh, dear, now" We'll,
wellw and the like were plain evil
dences Of perturbed spirit.
One day, when the perspiration flow
ed freely from his lofty brow and his
honest countenance shone with lus-
ter and radiance which, alas. were not
due to calmness of soul, but rather the
heat of the sun and his laborious eff
forts to move the obstinate gutta
percha from it's station on the tee, he
was tempted to indulge In strong Ian
guage. Dear, dear, but III have to
gle 1t up. I'll have to gle it up.' he
said at last. with a despairing look at
the ball.
"Give up the game, Mr.. D." exclaim-
ed his friend, who had been witness
Of his attempts.
"Na, na-the meenistry" answered
the other, with sigh.

Too Much Apathy.

Couldock's company was once barn
storming through Virginia. 1t was at
Petersburg, and the play was "The
Chimney Corner" All through the au-
dience sat in distressing silence, neither
laughing nor shedding tear, although
"The Chimney Corner" abounds with
humor and pathos and the company
then producing it was Of great merit
for those times. Couldock appeared to
pay no attention to the apathy Of his
audience until just at the close Of the
performance. The concluding lines Of
the play are somewhat to this effect:
"You, John, are happy, and so are you,
Ellen; so am l, and so are we all. Let
us hope that our friends the public
share our happiness"
But, to the surprise Of everybody,
Couldock fell into towering passion
when he reached these lines, and in
laundering tones he said "You, John,
are happy, and so are you, Ellen; so
am l, and so are we all except the fools
that have been sitting like stoughton
bottles In front Of the footlights to-
nightv

GluttonOus Bass.

"Talk about sharks" said an Grange
iounty lake fisherman; II vt believe
they are in it for promiscuous diet With
the black bass.
II was fishing one day with very
large minnow on big hook. I had n
bite and hooked a bass. 1t was a bis
one and gave me as pretty fight as
I ever saw till it broke the leader at
the point where it is attached to the
line and got away.
1--WE fished in other parts of the lake
after that and finally started to the
landing, the guide rowing while skit-
tered with minnow. We were pass
ing close by the place where had lost
the fish in the morning when l saw a
Lass dart for my bait. l gave it time
to swallow and then struck. When |
got the fish into the boat, 1 saw q
three foot leader sticking out of its
mouth. 1t was the leader l had lost
in the morning. When l cut the bass
open, there was the same big club 1t
had taken from my line, and it came so
nearly filling the fsh's nav that the
tail of the last minnow was sticking
out Of the mouth. There wasn't room
for it in the interior of the bass. New
York Times.

Romance Of the COrinthian Column.
In the winter young girl had died
In COrinth. Some time afterward her
maid gathered together various trim
kets and playthings which the girl had
loved and brought them to the girls
grave. There she placed them In a
basket near the monument and put
a large square tile upon the basket to
prevent the wind from overturning 1t.
1t happened that under the basket was
a root of IN acanthus plant. Whei:
spring cane, the acanthus sprouted,
but it's shoots were not able to pierre
the basket, and accordingly they grew
around 1t, having the basket in their
midst. Such of the long leaves as
grew up against the four protruding
corners Of the tile on the top Of the
basket curled round under these cor
ners and formed pretty volutes.
Kalllmachos, the sculptor, walking
that way one day, saw this and i'm
mediately conceived the notion that the
form of the basket with the plaque
on top of it and surrounded by the
leaves and stalks of acanthus would
be comely heading for columns in ar
chitecture. He from this idea formed
the beautiful Corinthian style Of capi-
tai. Such, at least, is the story as the
architect Vitruvius told 1t 1900 years
ago.

The Sncred Bone,

The bone luz, or the resurrection
bone" Is at the lower extremity Of the
spinal column. The Jewish rabbis
taught that it was incorruptible, and
from it, as from a seed, the human
body would spring at the resurrection.
There Is a Jewish tradition that the
Emperor Hadrian questioned a rabbi
as to the existence Of this bone and
was convinced by the production Of
one by the Jewish teacher. Various
attempts were made to destroy it. 1t
was cast into furnace and came forth
unconsumed; it was stepped in boiling
water. but remained unsoftened; 1t was
smitten with hammer, and the ham,
mer was broken. Some trace Of the
former reverence for the bone Is found
in the modern name.

JnHancse Fern Balls.

The lack Of success Of which some
people complain in the care Of fern
balls is due probably to one of the fol-
lowing causes: Either cheap and
worthless ball was purchased or it has
not been kept properly damp, says
Home Notes.
1t is no good to give the fern an oc-
casional soaking and then let 1t get
bone dry. 1t must be kept steadily
damp. A good plan is to put up hook
over the sink In the buffers pantry and
to hang it there to drain after its daily
tub The daily tub Of lukewarm water
is necessary for the we'll being of a
fern ball kept in the dry air Of Il living
room, and care should be taken to Sc
cure it place where it will have plcn-
ty Of light, but little or no sunshine.
Even in the hottest weather 1t should
not be kept out Of doors and drafts,
be it remembered, will ruin 1t.

Smoking Under Water.

Says an expert swimmer:
1t looks very strange to see man go
under water with lighted cigar In his
mouth, smoke calmly at the bottom
and come to the surface with the cigar
burning as nicely as if he were smok-
Ing In his easy chair. Apparently he
deGes all natural laws, but of course
he doesn't.
1t Is simple trick, but 1t requires
practice. Just as | throw myself back
ward to go down flip the cigar end
for end with my tongue and upper lip
and get the lighted end in my moutl,
closing my lips water tight around It.
a little slippery elm juice gargled be-
fore going in prevents any accidental
burning of the mouth. Going slowly
down backward, lie at full length Oh
the bottom of the tank and blow smoke
through the cut end of the cigar. Just
as | reach the surface again another
Zip rcvcrscs the cigar, and there am
smoking calmly. The reversing is done
SO quickly that nobody notices it.

Crabs and Lobsters.

There are many curious points about
crabs and Holsters. Every one Of
either genus is provided with a big
claw for crushing and small claw
adapted by its shape for cutting as
scissors do. With these two claws
they tear the food they capture into
fragments and feed themselves liter
ally from "hand to mouth" But there
is every reason to suppose that the
claws are intended quite as much for
fighting as for eating purposes. mas
much as such powerful hands are not
needed for devouring the soft food they
prefer,

Power of ExpressiOn.

Our language has wonderful power
of expression. On one occasion, we are
told, doctor of divinity rang the
changes on "He that hath ears to hear
let him hear" He that Is accessible
to auricular vibration" said the doctor,
"let him not close the gates Of his tym-
pana."
Then, again, we have that old fash
ioned saying "The more the merrier"
delightfully."- translated in this way:
"Multitudinous assemblages are the
most provocative Of cachinnatory hi
larity,"

The Paper OF the People, For the People,

Honest in Motive Fearless in Expression

A newspaper is an educator; there are all
kinds of educators, but the man who spends
money judiciously and literally is better able
to impart his knowledge than the man who
has little or nothing to spend.
THE Sun is the highest type of newspaper.
The Suns Special Correspondents through.
out the United States, as well as in Europe,
South Africa, China, and, in fact, all over the
world, make it an up to.date newspaper.
The Market Reports and commercial fea-
lures put the farmers, the merchant and the
broker in close touch with the markets at
Baltimore, Norfolk, Charleston, New York
Chicago, Philadelphia and other places which
are prominent centers.
From now on the news oftbe world prom
ises to be more interesting than ever before
and nationa and political questions will srise
making probably the most eyentful period in
the country's history.
THIS, together with the corps of editors
and reporters at Baltimore, Washington and
New York, make The Sun invaluable to it's

Darkness of Ocean Depths.

How far does sunlight penetrate be-
meath the surface of the seas? has been
asked many times, and now the camera
has answered the question. BY expos
ing the most sensitive Photographic
plates at various depths 1t has been as
certaIned with definiteness how much
sunlight there is in the water each de-
scending foot
There Is a point at which no action of
light Is found, and that point Is GOO feet

lutte darkness, and the only way In
which the most delicate plate can be eff
fected in that black abyss Is to send
down an electric light with 1t.

fairs of the road we're so much at
variance with my views of good prac-

l herewith append letter from the
vice-President of the Company. which
verifes my statement relative to my
resignation.
Yours very respectfully.
