The negroes from the Tuskegee in
stitute who were engaged in 1000 by
the German government to teach the
natives of Togoland, German West AZ
rica, how to grow cotton have succeed
ed in producing cotton which is graded
above American middling.
The British government has just

section of Lake Victoria Nyanza, In
central Africa, for the establishment
of steamer service on the lake In con-

which has recently been completed.
According to Golfers Weekly, the

Philippine corporal who put lighted
cigarette in six inch shell to discover
If 1t was loaded. He never was able to
tell, for he was one of the twenty or
thirty men killed.
A Bohemian couple holds the record
for procrastination. Franz Rosner 100
years of age, was married on his death
bed to Anna Renner, aged ninety-three,
at Oberpolitz. The groom died two
days later. The two had been In love
for seventy-five years, but had kept
putting off the wedding day.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Art In the House.

The great prominence given leather
and leather effects In wall covering or
upholstery for the hall, living room, H.
brary or dining room Is one of the no.
ticeable features of fashions in house
furnishings. One of the latest and
most novel ideas and one that is eX-
tremely effective is to use a metal fin
ished roanskin of either brown or
green tone as q straight valance for
velour portiere. Whole curtains of
leather are sometimes used, too, but
only In large, high ceilinged rooms,
where massive effects are In keeping.
Ceiling papers covered with lattice
work of vines blooming with flowers,
giving the effect of living in an arbor
or canopy of flowers, are among the
newest for bedrooms. For bedrooms in
country houses enameled furniture
painted in flower designs Is certainly
dainty and charming. White Is Of
course the most attractive, although
many of the colored ones are exceed
ingly pretty. Among the most deslra-
BILE showing is an ivory white with sim
gle large pink roses scattered all over
It, Forgetmenots ornament another
pretty white suit, as do ferns and vio-
let's.

A light, sunny kitchen is made more

Leafy Table Decorations.

For the aesthetic who dote on pretty
have little twigs set in silver cups, with
small fruits tied to the sprays of the
twig. A miniature cherry tree can be
built up In this fashion. Half dozen
of these little trees make beautiful
effect.
Festoons of ribbon on thin muslin Ia
being used for table centers. Roses,
violets and carnations can be used to

effect when used with fine india mus
lin Is like that of throwing spray Of

LAZY AND COLD BlOODED.
An Incident That Nearly Cost Sir
Hugh Rose His PeeraEe.

Lord Strathnairn was the most indo-
lent, lackadaisical, languid person who
ever dawdled along Piccadilly. When
he was devastating central India and
winning the splendid victories that i'm
mortalized his name, he was SO lazy
that he could not be got to dictate the
dispatches recording his own triumphs.
Months elapsed before these documents
could be extracted from him, and then
they were brief and meager to the last
degree. One day when Sir Hugh Rose
he was entertaining gallant company
ut dinner during the crisis Of the mu-
tiny
With the utmost sang froid he was
delighting those near him with one of
his orderly entered and after saluting
exclaimed, 1--WE have captured 200 reb
els, SIR" To him the general turned
and, with that elegant courtesy of
manner ON which he prided himself.
serenely replied, "Thank you, SER
geant." But the man still remained.
Again interrupting his chief, he said,
"But what are we to do with them,
sir?"
"Oh," replied Sir Hugh, with soft
smile, chang them, of course" And he
resumed his anecdote.
In little while Sir Hugh was again
interrupted In the middle Of another
story by the sergeant, who came in and
said, please, sir, we've hung the lot
sir" The general turned, bowed slight
ly and In the sweetest manner lisped,
"Thanks, sergeant-very many thanks"
and then went on with his anecdote as
If nothing had happened.
This story came to the ears Of Queen
Victoria, and she was so angry that 1t
nearly cost Sir Hugh his peerage.

BIRTH OF AN ICEBERG.
The Dramatic Experience of Two
Antarctic Explorers.

Mr.. G.. e. Borchgrevink, commander
of the antarctic expedition of 1898
nearly lost his life by an accident Of
nature so peculiar that it is probable
no other man could duplicate the eX-
perience At the foot of Mount Terror
in February 1900 he landed from his
ship with Captain Jensen and three
other men. Then, wishing to take
picture of the shore, he sent his boat
back to the vessel to get camera, and
he and Captain Jensen We're left alone
on the rough beach. Before the boat
returned strange and awful thing
happened, Mr.. Borchgrevink told the
story in the outlook:
A roar and a rush, with tremendous
explosions, shook the beach. The
thought came to us that the perpendic-
ular rocks above us were falling. Then
we realized what was taking place.
The mighty glacier Immediately to the
west of us was giving birth to an ice
berg.
Millions of tons Of ice plunged into
the ocean. We could see nothing be-
snow. The water rose from the plunge
of this antarctic monarch. l sang out
to Jensen, "Now we shall have to face
the wavew
We rushed to the highest point of our
limited beach, four feet above the sea.
We saw advancing on us dark green
ridge with a white crest. / called to
Jensen to struggle for dear life. We
clutched the uneven rocks, with our
backs toward the advancing water. AL
though it could not have taken more
than seven minutes the time seemed
long before the water closed over our
heads.
Floating upward scrambling upon
the rocks, tore the nails from my
flesh in my endeavor to keep from be-
ing dragged out. After the second
wave we again felt the rocks under
our feet.
At the place where Jensen and first
stood the rock was wet twenty feet
above our heads. 1t was somewhat
lower when 1t struck us. Where the
wave had struck with full force the
face of the rock had been altered, and
rocks were still falling when the three
men in the boat found us, bleeding and
torn.
Two facts had saved us. To our right
a small peninsula of ice protruded
some five feet from the rock, and the
rock itself bent toward the west. From
the moment it struck the curve of the
mountain rock to the west of us the
wave took a course more easterly than
where Jensen and | stood.
