Rob and His Gun. BY William Alex
anier Linn Illustrated. Published
by. Charles ScrihnerS, Sons New York

by Charles Scribners'@ Sons. New York.
On sale at 81.
This is a book for young readers which
is both interesting and instructive. It
introduces them to some of the pleasures
Of country life. gives them practical
hints on how they may become expert
with the shotgun and the rifle, makes
them acquainted with game of different
kinds and the manner Of hunting it. and
at the same time, points out to them
the difference between the pleasure of a
sportsman and the taking OF life for the
mere salle of killing.
The author assumes as that the mar
rative Of Rob's experiences is descrip-
ton of actual hunting expeditions which
he made himself. and that the incidents
related and the persons described have
come under his personal observation.

The dainty and charming heroine IS
high bred Southern girl. whose beauty
Of mind and person find an appropriate

human Lives Longer Now.

Timid people and pessimists are in
clined to fear that the progress of
invention is increasing the dangers of
accident and disease to such an ex-
tent that human life must necessarily
be shortened. This fear appears to
be groundless. Collected statistics
show that the average duration Of
human life is steadily increasing.
Some interesting and striking facts
along this line are presented in
recent report of the Chicago board of
health. The average duration of life
has increased in a third of century
from Il years to more than 81 years.
Exclusive of suicide, deaths from vIo-
lence have decreased 6.3 per cent.
Deaths from railway and car accidents
have decreased more than 8 per cent.
Since the partial abolition of rail-
ways on grade and the introduction
OF tenders on cars, six years ago,
deaths from this source have de-
creased 1875 per cent.

Ex-Speaker Thomas B. Reed has q
knack of dlsposing of .disagreeable &C.
quaintances that few public men pos.
sess, as many have learned to their
intense chagrin.
Il was in Washington once" said
man at the clue, when Tom Reed
was the car of the house of repre-
sentatiyes. He was holding forth with
earnestness on some theme to group
of friends when that man you see over
there by the cigar counter pushed his
way through the crowd, grasped Reed
by the hand and said effusively:
Hello, Tom, old boy, how do you do"
Reed responded in a manner that
was more of shake for the man than
for his hand and went on with his
talk. When our friend over there had
edged out or the crowd someone said:
You didn't seem to be happy over
him, Reed. Who is your friend, any
way?'
Reed drawled out: He's a fellow
from New York who knows more men
who don't want to know him than any
other man in the United States.'"

PAPERS FIND FAULT
WITH SENIOR PALMA
Cuban President Is Accused of Incom.
petence, Ignorance and
Weakness.

Havana, Aug. 1S.-During the last
few days several Havana newspapers
have been making violent on1laughts
upon the chief executive of the repub.
lie, accusing him of incompetency, ig.
norance and weakness in not having
as yet done anything useful for the
country. La Lucia claims that Presi
dent Palmas promises to treat the
various elements in Cuba alike have
not been kept and declares that what
the executive wants is to govern with.
out law and to ignore the constitution.
The paper says that in spite of the
repeated requests of congress Presi-
dent Palma has not yet presented the
budget.
La Discussion says that congress is
wasting time lamentably and declares
that a number of laws have been de-
layed either in the house of repre-.
sentatives or in the senate. Congress
must do more work, says the paper,
or the session will pass without the
accomplishment of anything for the
interests of the country.
In the house of Representatives II
was voted that none of the fortresses
or arsenals of the Cuban republic
could be leased or sold by the govern.

Ladies' Tailors Not New.

There were. it seems, ladies tail
ors"' and tabernacle dresses in the
days Of Queen Elizabeth. A contribu-
tor Of the Tailor and Cutter has been
visiting Cumnor, and was shown a
letter written by the Inflated Amy
Robsart shortly before her death at
Cumnor house, which Sir Walter Scott
describes in "Kenilworth." 1t was to
Mr.. William Edney, tailor at the
Tower, and refers to the alteration of
a gown he was making for her, and
contains promise to see him paid.
The unfortunate lady died before the
gown was finished, and the poor tailor
had to walt for five years before he
was paid by the earl of Leicester.

Not Hector but Another.

On one fine day in May, 1901. James
Mcdonald, fisherman of Mallaig, in
the western Highlands of Scotland,
took out three girls for a row in his
boat. Suddenly a squall arose and
upset the boat in thirty feet of water.
Mcdonald contrived to get all three
lasses on to the keel of the upturned
boat, and then swan to an islet some
forty-fve feet away. Here he removed
his big sea boots and heavier cloth.

whom he carried one by one to the
rock. McDonald's noble action hay

the Royal Humane Society, that body

SIMPLICITY MARKS
SENATOR'S FUNERAL
James McMilIan's Body Is Borne to
the Grave Without Usual
Military Escort.

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 1S.-Extreme
simplicity marked the funeral services
over the body Of Senator James Nc,
MILAN, who died suddenly at his sum
mer home in Manchester, Mass. II
had been proposed that his thousands
of employees should march in process
sion behind the hearse bearing his
body to the tomb; that there should
be military escort and public
funeral commensurate with the sen
ator's career, but in obedience to the
wish of the family, this was given up
The services began at 2:30 o'clock
at the Senator's late residence, sis
Jefferson avenue. The large house
was crowded to its utmost capacity
and many persons were unable to
gain admission. Both branches OF
Congress, the State Legislature and
all departments of the state and city
government were represented at the
services. Governor A. T. Bliss was
present with several of his staff. The
senatorial delegation included some of
the most intimate friends of the dead
Senator.
