Servian history Of the nineteenth

story, however the facts may develop

Milosh was a man of simple, coarse
habits. He became despot, was forced
to abdicate in 1880 and returned to
power at seventy for a year only in

The growing of pampas plumes has
become an important industry in Cali
fornia. When they are cut, day or so
suffices to dry the piumes, and at such
times the ground appears from the
hills to be covered with snow, After
the drying the plumes are taken to the
curling house and then finally sorted
into various grades by expert hands.
The finest and most beautiful plumes
are about thirty-six inches long and
they are packed for shipment either in
packages of 1000 or in large cases, the
prices ranging from 5000 to $50 a
thousand, according to the demand.
There are numerous pampas orchards
in California ranging in their produc-
tive quality from 5000 hills, which
produce 100000 plumes, down to small
ranches, where but few are raised. In
all, California produces about $500 900
plumes year, which are sent all over
this country and Europe. - Chicago

The Oldest Locomotive.

has just been retired from service.
Stephenson had constructed his first
locomotfye. Ny Lord, for the Killings
worth colliery in 1914. The Hetton
railway. laid out by Stephenson, was
the longest railroad which had up to
that time been constructed in that por-

A German Criminal Catcher.

Herr Eugen Fass has hit upon an
elaborate method Of alarming the in
habitants of a town whenever any
great crime has been committed in or
der to prevent the escape Of the crimi-
nal. His idea is to erect In all the most
public parts Of the town booths con-
tanning a table, writing materials, tele-
phone and electric bells and in front a
large board for the display Of notices.
As soon as crime is committed bell
is set ringing. which calls the nearest
policeman, who is informed telephon-
ically of the details, and these he
promptly writes down and places them
on the display board so that he who
runs may read. Thus within few
minutes of the preparation of a crime
a public hue and cry is raised which it
is hoped may end speedily in the cap
ture Of the criminal.
