A well-known publisher has been
looking into the question of how long
a life book now enjoys. in COMPARE
son with the life it would have had
some twenty years ago. He has come
TO the conclusion that. roughly speak
ing book has less than half the
length of life it used to have. Thus in
the old days novel. II it was read by
the public at all. would go on being
read for a year. Now a six months
career is almost noteworthy and one
of three months is not to be despised.
The same change applies to works on
science and all the learned subjects,
though not, of course, in so marked a
degree. A work has hardly established
itself to-day when another. rather more
up-to-date. comes out and eclipses it.
Years back a recognized book on bot
any or some such subject was certain
of long prosperity.

How He Sized Up tho Nationality OF =
Railway Train Crow.
Archbishop Ireland, who travels
alone great deal, takes much pleas
ure in becoming acquainted with the
train crews, and as he is very uncon-
ventional and easily approached, he
has many pleasant little experiences
which are rather enhanced by the sur
prise and often chagrin Of his newly
discovered acquaintances when they
discover the prelates identity. He
meets many Irish employees connected
with the different roads, who always
extend to him ''Cead mile failthe,"
or what means in English a thousand
welcomes, but it was only recently on

that he found himself in an entirely
Hibernian atmosphere.
The archbishop was chatting with
Pullman Conductor w. H. Nugent-a
Corkian, with all the native wit and
humor of the country that gave
birth to the Blarney stone-who was
explaining the recent changes in own
ership of the road, and added that the
majority of the train hands were Irish
and then proceeded to name them for
the edification of the archbishop.
Now, let me see how many Of we
there are" said the archbishop. who,
after listening to the roll call, started
to count with his index finger. There's
Ed Sally, brother of Father Sally's,
he's engineer, and Tom Duffy is the
conductor. and John. Egan, he's the
brakeman. and yourself by the name
of Nugent is the Pullman conductor.

A BIRD WITH AN APRON.
A Specimen Of the Curious Traaopan

bird do the thing without paying any
admission fee, but the records of the

fingers of one hand.
The bird is Tenminck's tragopan, a
species of pheasant. Its beauty of
plumage is beyond comparison with
anything in art and is rivaled in its
varied hues only by the feathers of the
peacock and the Argus pheasant. The
tragopan has rolled under It's chin like

The immensely of London can only
be understood when we come to deal
with the many sides of the peoples

are born in London, some 5000 OF
whom are not wanted and are not well
coined. There are always more boys
born than girls.
More than 400 out of every 1000
never live to be two years old, over
10000 little collins being used every
year to bury their remains. More than
10000 people die every year in London
spite of the fact that about $4,000 Lon
doners go to their last account, there
are $4,000 more persons alive in Lon.

were on the previous occasion.
There are more than 10000 weddings
each twelvemonth. 10000 Of which are

ing that We have had compulsory edu-
cation now for over thirty years. there
are every year more than 1000 per-

HOW EDUCATION is SHOWN.
Prof. Butler Gives Certain Character.
istIcs by Which to Judge Man,.

Any one can tell gentleman by
looking at his back. but 1t takes close
observation to discover by cursOry ex-
animation whether man Is educated
or not. By education we do not mean
merely the fact that man has gone
through II high school or a college and
made the motions of receiving an edu-
cation. But we refer to that training
of the mind which receives and grasps
facts, and understands them in the
light Of past wisdom.
Professor Nicholas Murray Butler, of
Columbia university, New York. has
given five rules by which any one may
tell an educated man.
First, is the correctness with which
he use his mother tongue and the pre-
cision of his idiom. The educated man
moves easily among his words OF Sax
on Roman and Greek origin as among
old friends.
Second, in the mans manners. Not
the veneer that may be put on or Off
as occasion serves, but the genuine
habit of the man himself.
Third, is the power Of reflection.
Given an idea, the educated man will
throw upon the subject the light of Il
number of correlated facts that are com
pletely beyond the power and ability
of the uneducated.
Fourth, is the power to grow. Uned-
ucated minds cease TO develop at a GER
tain point. They become non-receptive.
Fifth. is the ability to do. Retire
ment from the world and contempla-
ton are no longer signs of education
and enlightenment. The modern man
of education must accomplish things

FIRE IN A FACTORY.
Panic Among the 400 EmplOyes-Na
Lives Lost-SeveraI Injured.

PHILADELPHIA, June 13.-Fire today de-
stroyed the novelty leather factory OF
H. M. RoSenolatt & Co.. a four story
brick structure, at Second and Oxford
streets and resulted in sever injuries
to a dozen peg ons. The John Mossel
public school opposite the leather works
was damaged, three houses adjoining
the factory were destroyed and nine
others weie slightly damaged. n
rapid spread of the flames gave rise
to rumors that a number of employees
had met death in the burning factory,
eous. A member of the firm of Rosen-
blatt & Co., tonight said all of the en-
ployees had been accounted for.
There were many sensational and
narrow escapes most of the 400 men
and women employed in the factory
saving themselves by leaping from the
windows iEto nets held by firemen-
Katie Scheidell, aged 10 years, vas car
ried down Z ladder by a policeman. She
was badly burned and her condition is
reported as serious.
Several others, including a police ser
geant and two flremen sustained severe
decorations and were overcome by heat
and shock. the fire originated in a
small annex known as the celluloid
room. 1t is believed a spark from
crossed electric wires fell into a guam
tity Of celluloid. The fire caused a panic
among the employees especially those
on the upper floors, and for a time the
widest excitement prevailed. Firemen
and policemen, however, prevented the
panic stricken workers from leaping
until nets had been spread to receive
them.
