thereof anent the recent visit here Of
a clever travelling man who fooled the
members OF the Board Of Trade and
the representative Of a newspaper so
completely that the reporter took him
to a photograph gallery and had his

board Of Senator Swanson of Mime

est OF the anti-option bill.
Mr.. Keene's story was Of a man who
was riding on his bicycle through a
thinly settled section Of Minnesota.
Something went wrong with his wheel
and he had to dismount and trundle
1t along for several miles before he
came to a house. He fastened up and
raped at the front door. A tall, raw
boned Swede appeared.

Frurni IA Hs Meals.
Emperor Francis Joseph Of Austria
SIS very plain in his tastes and habits.
40 6 o'clock Ia the morning he takes
his breakfast. consisting Of some cold
meat. coffee and fresh-made bread and
cake. Between 10 and i o'clock he
takes his deieuner. two dishes of meat
and some ordinary pastry. Dinner is
served at 6 o'clock. sharp. All his
meals are servea in his library at his
writing desk. Not even a tahlecloth
Is spread His personal valet on duty
receives the dishes in an antechamber
on a large tray and puts the tray be-
fore the emperor on lds desk.
Very often t6 emperor takes a
spoonful Of soup between two sigma
lures. He is a very busy man. With
the meal the menu for the next days
dinner is sent up and laid before the
emperor. tt contains two SOUPS, pat
ties, fish. two entrees, two roasts, two
desserts. pastry, cheese. fruit etc, and
the emperor with a blue pencil crosses
on whatever De. does not want. The
emperor does not care much for wine.
He prefers a glass of beer. Nor does
he indulge In expensive Havana cigars.
A plain homemade cigar, the ~so-called
Virginia cigar, long and thin, with a
straw running through It, is his favor
lite smoke. These cigars cost only 8
kreuzer-that is, about twopeuce
apiece.

The caiber Of a 6rearm is the diane
ter Of the barrel; that is, the hole
through which the charge Is projected.
Rifles are measured by caliber and
shotguns by gauge, says the Buffalo
Express. The term bore is frequently
used INTERCHANGEABLE, though in its
most general use it refers to large
weapons Of special make. The ele-
plant guns-of travel tales are
always referred Ito as having bore.
But h~ereabouts caliber and gauge are
the terms most used.
A 1-caliber rife would be a rife with
an inside barrel diameter Of n inch.
Thus a 50-caliber weapon would have
an inside barrel diameter Of half an
inch, and the 32-caliber arm would
carry a ball sized for a barrel 80 Of
an inch in diameter.
Rife and revolver measurements are
made on a scale Of their own. One
might think they would follow the
theory Of cents. dimes, quarters and
halves, so long as they are reekoned by
decimals, but they don't. The small
est caliber, unless a special size, is %.
From that rifles and revolvers are
built in recognized sizes up to 50-cali-
Der. Beginning with the ~22-oaliber,
the standard American sizes are as fol-
lows: %. 80, 80, .Ss, "A, As, so.

THREE woMAN's R
Ages OF Elizabeth, Anne and Victoria
Were Remarkable Epochs.

Ages OF Elizabeth, Anne and Victoria
Were Remarkable Epoohs.
It is a remarkable fact that three
sovereign ladies-Elizabeth, Anne and
Victoria-have given their anne to
the three greatest periods Of English
literature, which were also T of nota-
BILE military conquest. Elizabeth, herself
a learned but stilted and pedantic
writer, gave an impulse to authorship
which eliminated in Shakespeare and
Bacon and a brilliant galaxy of lesser
lights, The reign Of Queen Anne, a
dull, commonplace, indolent woman
with no intellectual aspirations, was
rendered illustrious by the genius Of
Prior, Pope, Swift, Addison, Defoe,
Congrevo and other authors, while
Newton and Berkeley we're making
valuable discoveries in science, which
valuable discoveries in science, then
in it's infancy, and Marlborough was
winning brilliant victories.

foremost of the writer's who have lent
honor and renOwn to the Victorian

Victoria herself made some modest es-
says In Observation-Disclosures Of the
travels and domestic life of the royal
family in its various resorts, which
greatly endeared her to her people, for
even the most trivial personal details
Of the reigning house are Of surprising
interest. Remarkable as were the
literary achievements of the Victorian
age, and worthy as were the contribu-
tions to art and music, they fall far
below the signal triumphs achieved by
science in this reign Of almost sixty
four years-the longest In British an
mails.
Still greater than all the achieve
ments Of art, literature and science.
which have lent such luster to the
Victorian g says the Minneapolis
Tribune, are it's abolition Of ancient
abuses, the educational and philan-
thropical activities, its efforts for
ameliorating the horrors of war and
for settling international difficulties
by peaceful arbitration rather than by
the sword.

Sir Henry HaIrord's Shot at a Thousand.
Yard Target.
In a passage of his recently publish
ed volume, ''The Book Of the Rifle"
the Hon. T. F. Freemantle tells Of the
following amusing story apropos Of ac-
cidents to markers:
Sir Henry Halford on one occasion
1t was not a very clear day-was
about to begin shooting at 1000 yards.
and, thinking that the marker must
now be ready for him to begin, asked
him through the telephone, Are you
all right?' The marker replied, An
right. sir, in a minute. But. unluek-
lily, Sir Henry took All right, sir in
stead Of the whole sentence, and re-
moved the telephone from his ear.
He lay down and fired his shot, and,
on looking through the telescope to
see where he had hit, was Mortified to
see the marker with a perfectly white
face staggering away toward his shell
ter. He was intensely alarmed, and
in a moment there came a ring at the
telephone. What has happened? Are
you badly hurt?' No. sir, / I'M not
hurt; but I had a bucket Of white
wash between my legs, painting the
target. and you put a bullet into It
and splashed II an up In my face -

Incident which h Owner OF a Pet
finds It Hard 60 Explain.
Il have had of the doubts of my
ooyhood removed by a story which I
heard a few days ago" said an up
own man.
There Is a dog in my part Of town
hat lives in the apartment occupied
)y his mistress. He never goes out
alone. When she bought the animal
eighteen months ago she took him
rom the company of another dog two
niles away.
"A few days ago the oma and her
log were in the neighborhood Of the
dogs birthplace, when she saw the
other dog. The meeting between the
.wo dogs was such as to satisfy the
woman that they had not forgotten
sach other. She returned home later
n the day.
The next morning her dog awoke
her early and showed her by his man
ner that something unusual had oc-
Cured. He directed her by his actions
TO the front door of her apartment.
Opening the door she found her
dogs friend on the step. He had come
to pay his playmate a visit. He had
Travelled two miles for this purpose.
She admitted the caller and he
spent the day with his puppyhood
friend. In the afternoon the woman
turned him out and told him to 60
home.
THE dog gave an %undoubted exhi-
bition of his appreciation Of the wo-
mans kindness as he was leaving by
barking and licking her hands. When
turned out he trotted In the direction
Of his home, and hes not been seen
since, but the woman learned that he
arrived home safely.
She honestly believes that her dog
invited the other to call. But how her
dog explained where he lived, and how
the other found his way. these are
questions that puzzle her."-New
