HELD BY A SWAPPING TURTLE

A negro whose name could not be ascertained had narrow escape from painful injury during the unloading of the steamer Kitty Knight, at the Light street wharf of the SassHfras river line yesterday afternoon, but gained a lot of valuable experience concern ing the handling of snapping turtles.
 It was while the wharf was crowded with commission men and agents and the excitement attendant upon the un- loading of several score of cattle was at it's height that the bystanders were startled by the loud and continuous screaming of someone in their rear Turning, they beheld big, swarthy negro vainly endeavoring to climb , over the side of his wagon, which was backed up against the wharf, and in the bottom of which his foot and leg seemed to be caught. Suddenly there was a rip and a tear, a portion of the mans trousers leg gave way and he dropped to the ground.
 By this time the crowd had gath cred nearer the wagon, in which they beheld lying on his back, frantically waving his webbed feet and angrily shooting out his head at intervals, an immense snapping turtle Tn the rep tiles mouth there was a square piece of cloth which matched in color the Ipantaloons the negro wore. The trouble was explained at glance.
 The negro. in loading his wagon had gone too near the turtle. whicl kangry over treatment it had received grabbed the first thing within its reach upon which to wreak it's ven geance. The jaws came together with snap, missing the negro, bu catching the clothing.
 The threatening look in the little eyes frightened the man. who turned as he felt something grab his nethe, garments. and he shrieked and at tempted to get away. The c1oti could not stand the tug of war ant gave way y.--Baltimore Herald.

The Washington Star, the recognlzea official organ of the administration aC the National capital, in it's eHort U give prominence and credit to Fresi- dent Roosevelt for his assumed atll- +,,da concerning the criminal trusts, hos evidently made a serious blunoer in it's issue of July 19.

GOVERNORS AND THEIR NAMES.

Readers of "Peter Simple" will re- member Chucks the hoatswain, who had theory that no man with a mono syllable name ever became famous. The fact that the boatswain afterward became Count Chuckson did not mili- tate the least against his theory, inas- much as fame came to him in a foreign country where his original patronymic was unknown, and came after or at least contemporaneously with the ex- tension of his surname. Our old friend Chucks is brought to mind by the probability that we are to have two more monosyllabic governors in Mas sachusetts, making three in succession. thus showing that theories apply only where they are born out by exemDlis fication, upon the same principle that all rules have their exceptions. As q matter of fact, it is no new thing to 1 have a governor in this state with but
 a single syllable to his name We have had several such. Since the adop-
 ton of the constitution in 17S0 we have | had Caleb Strong. from 1900 to 1897
 and from 1872 to 1S16: John Brooks from 1916 to 1923: George N. Briggs ] from 1a44 to 1851: Nathaniel P Banks

CENTENARY OF TROUSERS.

Most people will be surprised to hear that trousers, as at present worn Dy the male portion of humanity, have
 just celebrated their centenary, but,
 according to Fashion, such is undoubt-
 edly the case They 'came in'' on ac-
 count of the high living prevalent
 hundred years ago. This produced
 great deal of gout, whose twinges the |tight-fitting costume in use at that per-
 iod made unbearable. Hence the in
 vention of the wider form of garment,
 which soon became popular, and was adopted by many royal Dersonages at
 home and broad. Among the dan. dies'' of the period, however, the new
 style was regarded with contempt, and when Almack's was at it's height as fashionable resort the great duke of Wellington himself was once refused admission because he presented him. self in trousers instead of the (for that 1 time) orthodox neither garments. So l far has their sway now extended that they threaten to supplant even the Scottish knit-London Telegraph.
