lIlustrious Indian Princes.

But ii is only those thoroughly ac-
Quanted with Indian annals who Will
appreciate. in gianCins through the
catalogue OF these arrivals, or meeting
face TO face the illustriouS strangers
what a blending of the Old and new
times they denote. Take, for instance,
the Sovereign Prince of Jaipur. who.
with other companions scarcely less
distinguished. concentrates in his own
splendid person the story and the as
sociations of the RajpuL dynastics.
The Oldest house in Europe, the proud
est pedigree. are things of yesterday
mere mushrooms of human develop
ment-compared with the family trees
of these princes. who scorn TO be con-
tented with an ancestor more recent
than the sun himself. And it is not
eNaggeratiOn to say that all the books
of western kniSht-errantry. all the
chronicles of t'rOiSSart and Brantome,
all the vicissiiudes of European war
ard diplomacy, MAKE dull and dry
reading side by side with the scrolls
which tell of RajputaLa and her he.

Evidences of Death.

The following have been suggested
as methods of deciding whether death
has occurred:
Tie a string firmly about the finger
If the end of the finger becomes
swollen and red. life is not extinct.
Insert a bright eel needle into
the flesh. If it furnishes by oxidation
in the course OF hau an hour. life may
be considered not extinct.
Inject few drops OF huuor ammo
niae under the skin. During life a
deep red purple spot is formed
MOisten the eye with atrOpine Dur
ing life the pupil will dilate.
Look at a bright light or at the sun
through the fingers held closely side
by side. During life the color is pink
after death dull white.
After death dark spot is said to
form gradually on the outer side of
the white OF the eye, from drying of
the surface, SO that the dark chord
shows through.
Putrefaction is an absolute sign of
death. Better delay for it than run
any risk of burying alive.

ONLY A SMALL MISTAKE.
Experience With Dentist in the
klCndine

High prices in frontier towns was
the subject under discussion at an up
town hotel the other day. when a
man who had recently returned from
the gold district in tie K,ondike told
the following story:
People get used to paying big
money for trihes. and s. for box of
sardines or IS for Il pound of bad
coffee become reasonable prices.
kicked once upon a time because the
price asked was too small. 1t was
like this: | had jumping tootnache,
was nearly wild with it, when ! went
to the shanty where | was told there
was a dentist. A rough looking fellow
told me that he was it. and | asked
him to draw my tooth. He looked me
over, got his iorceps fastened on my
tooth. and yanked it out after couple
of hard twists.
How much?' ! asked.
We'll, 81. guess said the dentist.
Il paid him, although my jaw still
ached pretty badly.
"'That's the cheapest thing I've
seen around here | said.
"Well,' he said, I thought I'd make
it low. because on account Of the bad
light | pulled the wrong tooth
Il had to go the next day to have
the bad tooth out. and he made mat
ters square by charging me $40"

her 1eet SO that no sudden jolt should
make her seem infirm of purpose or
understanding, she turned and cast
defiant look at the fifty or sixty per-
sons who were watching. Then she
gathered up her skirt with both hands,
raised it to a level with her spreading
picture hat, folded it warmly about
her neck and sal down.
We'll, waddeye think o that?' came
in suppressed murmur from half the
men in the car.
It's a good idea replied one of the
girls only less determined than the
pioneer skirt-Taiser on the front sea.
The rest of the women with purple
arms and shoulders thought so. too,
and for the next five minutes there
was a spreading OF sail and a futter-
ing of petticOat such as even Jersey

LABBY s FREE DINNER
DIPLOMAT slNeULARLY FAVORED
EY FORTUNE.
Sent on Mission to Boston He Loses
His Money in Poker Game and Is
Saved from Hunger by a Fsnceo
Resemblance.

ahouchere was once sent by the
Pritish minister ito look after some
Irish patriots at Boston. Taking up
his quarters at a small hotel. he en-
tered his name as Smith. II you have
an idle hour in almost any American
city you can get INTO game OF
draw or anything else in the way OF
gambling. In TIE eNerlns OF his ar
rival the attachc incontinently entered
a gaming establishment and lost all
the morey he had except half DOL
lar Then he vert 10 bed, satisfied,
TO doubt. with his prowess. The next
day the bailif seized on the hotel tor
debt ard all the guests were re-
cuested 10 pay thcir bills and take
away their luggage. !abouchere could
not ray and could not. therefore, take
away his luggage. All he could do
was to write 10 Washir gton Tor re-
mittance ard wait Two days for its
arrival The first day he walked about
and spent his half dollar on food. Il
was summer and he slept on a bench
on the common. In the morning ne
went TO the bay to have wash lnde-
pendent Of all the cares and troubles
of civilization. But he had nothing
with which to buy himself a break
fast Toward evening he grew very
hungry ard entered Il restaurant and
ordered dinner without any clear
idea Of how he was to pay the bin
except to leave his coat in pledge
And here comes in an example OF
young Iaboucheres luck. tempered by
a ready wit. AS the hungry and for
the time being penniiesS attache ate
his dinner he observed that all the
walters were lrishmen and that they
not only continually stared at him,
but We're evidently discussing him
with one another. A guilty conscience
induced him to think that this was be-
cause of his impecunious appearance
and that they were making calcula-
tions as to the value of his clothes.
At last one of them approached their
anxious customer and in a low voice
said: Il beg your pardon, sir. Are
YOU the patriot Meagher? Now this
patriot was a gentleman who had
aided Smith O'Brien in his Irish rising
and had been sent 10 Australia. and
had escaped thence to the United
States.
1T was my business to look after
PATRIOTS" said Labouchere telling me
The story so put my finger before
my lips ard said Hush at the same
time casting my eyes up to the ceiling
as though | saw a vision of Erin beck
oning me. 1t was felt at once that |
was Meagher. The choicest yiands
were placed before me and most eX-
cellCnt wine. When | had done JUS
tice to all the good things ! went 10
the bar and boldly asked for my bill.
The proprietor, also all lriShman, said,
From a man like you who has suf-
fered in the good cause | can take no
money Allow brother patriot to
shake hands with YOU allowed
him" He further allowed the walters
to shake hands with him and then
stallied forth with the stern, resolved,
but somewhat condeScendlng air
which he had seen assumed by pa
triOts in exile. Again he slept on the
common; again he washed in the bay.
Then he went TO the p0stoMce, Sot his
money and breakfasted.

GROWS eArrLE WITH HAWK.
Midair Conflict IN Which Numbers
Vanoush and XIII the ProWler.

Druid Hill Park, near Superintend-
ent Cassell's residence. was the scene
on Sunday of one Of the fiercest bat
ties ever fought between crows on
the one side and large chicken hawk
on the other, and. perhaps, the only
battle of it's kind in which the hawk
suffered defeat, says the Baltimore
sun.
1t is we,l-known fact that the re-
lations between hawks and crows have
been strained perhaps since creation,
hawks neslecting no opportunity 10
destroy young crows before they leave
the nests Representatives OF the two
species of birds rarely meet without
battle. They usually fight in midair
This is no doubt the reason why the
hawk has Won so many victories.
Fully twelve or fifteen crows took
part In Sundays battle. The hawk
was attacked in n!dair while hover
ing over a crows nest The onslaught
made him furious ard he retailated
by sw coping down on the tree IN
which the nest was built. The crows
were determined to drive off the en-
emy and made a systematic and CON
certed onslaught on the intruder
First one and then another would
drive at him and in y short time the
ground under the tree was strewn
with feathers.
The hawk fought with bill and
claws, while the crows used only their
bills. The fight became so not that
the hawk was compelled TO leave the
tree and. being too exhausted TO ny.
sank to the ground. There he made
a final stand and tne battle was an
interesting & one. passengers on the
Emory Grove cars being among the
spectators. First ore crow and then
another would give the hawk dig
with its bill and then jump back to
escape the savage plunges of the
hawk.
The hawk fought as long as he could
stand on his feet. Even while lying
on his side or back he kept up the
struggle The crows. however, were
relentless. and kept on pecking away
until their adversary fell dead. They
then few off a considerable distance
and patched up their cuts and bruises
as best they could. Not single one
of their number was killed.

TWAS COLD IN OPEN WORK.
But the Jersey Girls Found Way and
Kent as Warm as Toast.

Some of the young folks OF Newark
have way of staying so late at Coney
Island on Sunday nights in summer
that they have to trolley across the
Jersey salt meadows to their homes
in the wee sma' hours of Monday
morning. Last Sunday was no eXcep-
ton.
In the throng that just comfortably
filled one of the night owl cars from
Jersey City to Newark We're many
women who had started out from ten
to twelve hours earlier wearing their
new open work finery, says the New
York Sun. Ii was an open car, and
the damp breezes that blew in soon
made the white arms and shoulders
which peeped through the lace and
gauze blue and shivery.
On the front seat, exposed to all the
fierceness OF the blast, sat little bru-
nette. the openness of whose waist
