ANIMALS FULL OF YEARS.
Inmates of a Paris Institution for Aged Quadrupeds That Have
 Lived Over the Limit.

In the vicinity of Paris home for old domestic animals was established some time ago, and among the present inmates are mule 72 years old, COW 36 and pig 25 years old, says the New York Herald.
 It is claimed that domestic animals which lead an easy life are likely to live far beyond the average age if prop erly. cared for. Many birds certainly attain an extraordinary age. Eagles, ravens and parrots frequently live a hundred years, and pelicans probably live as long, for it is recorded that one of these birds was placed in the Am sterdam geological garden some time before 1792, and was still there in 1870. This pelican. too, was at least four or five years old when it was placed in the garden.
 Eels are also long lived. Prof. Buch- ner tells of one which was kept for 26 years in pond at Thiengen, in which it was placed at the age of eight years. It attained length of nearly five feet, and it's favorite haunt was in the cur rent that flowed into the pond. All authorities agree that domestic ami ma1s which are obliged to do a good deal of work do not live so long as those which lead placid life.

Tortures of the Habara.

The married Druse women of Mount Lebanon, in Asia Minor, labor under 8 distinct species of torture endured under their peculiar head veil. It is attached to long horn or tambour. usually made of metal, which is fast ened to the head by means of cush- ion. These habaras are of an infinite variety of colors, embellished with tassels, bands of embroidery and fringes. Underneath this again is worn face veil of coarse thick net so heavily embroidered that one can scarcely see or breathe through it.. This is fastened close to the face and
 the habara drawn tightly over it. They are so muffied in the folds of these clumsy stuffs that the stranger has to look twice before he can decide whether they are advancing or re- treating, and the poor wretches suffer acutely under the weight of thesr veils.-Detroif Free Press.

THE MooRIsH CITY OF FEE.
Its Narrow Streets Where the Sun Never Shines and It's Filthy
 stRiver Of PearIs.o

The sun never touches the ground in Fez, except in few isolated spaces, owing to the narrow streets, the height of houses and the habit of stretching trellises covered with vines across from side to side. The conse- quence is, says the Detroit Free Press, that it's naturally dark-skinned citi- zens, being rarely exposed to the full light of day, have complexions resem- bling partially decomposed potato sprouts in dark cellar. The so-called streets run in straight lines the en- tire length of the town, and are all paved with round stones the size of CO., coanuts, worn smooth by the tread of generations of slippered feet. As these lanes are never swept, and every householder throws his slops and ref use out of doors, one must pick his way with exceeding care.
 The Wed el Jubai ('River of Pearls'') divides the city into two parts, the new and the old.

Watertown Man Successful Fruit

 B. c. Atwood Is in receipt of let ter from his old friend. Dr E. O..
 French, who is now in Orlando, Flor
 ida. The doctor says he has between 5000 and 6,O0O pineapple plants and 100 orange trees. Most of the pro- duct he sold in the home market, as
 he is of the opinion that it pays bet ter i'll the end to sell at home than to ship. He says a good many pineries
 were frozen out, mostly through the negligence of the owners, who put more faith ill Providence than in the labor of their own hands He is of the opinion that it is no use trying to raise tropical plants in q semi-trop- ical climate unless you are in a posi- ton to protect them. He says this has been the coldest winter since he has been there: ice formed several | nights, but the steady cold kept the | orange trees dormant so that very lit tie damage was done to the buds. He expects to have his family come north for the summer and later in the sea- son he will join them and incidentally visit all of his old friends in Water 1 town.
 Taft school closed yesterday for two weeks. This vacation is taken
 earlier than usual Generally it | comes about Easter. but owing to the Tact that several cases of humps ap-

 This evening the Boys club will
 give an entertainment at the club rooms. The bows have arranged 1 quite good program for the evening and those who attend are assured of a good time. There have been sey- eral of these entertainments during the winter and all of them have been well patronized It is hoped that the

Epaphroditus, Epaminondas and Eu-
 calyptus Not Tn It.
 In the appointment of Judge James Perry Platt of this city to the bench of the United States district court for Connecticut and eastern New York President Roosevelt again shows him. self to possess to marked degree qualities of independence and appre- ciation. says the Meriden Jorunal. Independence is shown by the nomin- ation i'll the face of the opposition to Judge Platt's appointment; dire threats as to what would happen in Connecticut republican ranks being made, it is asserted. should the Meri- den judge be named. \ lot of other Wierd and narrowing tales calculated to frighten the timid. were, it is re- ported, told the president especially by the Hartford county visitors, headed by Judge Epaphroditus Peck and Epa- minondas Stanton on their trips to Washington, and hold-uD telegrams were sent by EucalvDtus Perkins. Other hard named and sore headed country lawyers also registered pro- tests and endeavored to tell the pres ident on which side his bread was buttered, so to speak
 President Roosevelt told them po- litely to be seated in a far away cor her of the room.
 Appreciation was shown by the president in two wavs-of Judge Platts ability for the position. which was vouched for by such high author lty as ex-Goyernor Waller. Dean Way land and Judge Townsend, and his desire to express his gratitude tow ard one of his administrations strongest supporters and defenders Senator o. H. Platt..
 But aside from any feeling of friendship that President Roosevelt has for Senator PIatt. the father of Ihe appointee, there were good and sufficient reasons why Judge Platt should be named He had the hest pacK1ng for the place of all the can- dldates; that he had the personal qualifications was attested by law yers of the standing and reputation of ex-GoVernor Waller. a nolitical oppon- ent by the way. by Dean Wayland. who taught him law. and by Judge Townsend. whom he succeeds.
 The indorsement of these three alone should have turned the scales in Judge Platt's favor.
 But Judge Platt had more than that back of him He had the undoubted requisite ability and in making the recommendation to the president. At torney General Knox took that fully into consideration and it had the greatest weight.
 Hartford lawyers may scoff at the idea of a police court judge being raised to the dignity of the United States bench. but those who know Judge Platt know we'll that he will never have to go to any of the Hart ford lawyers who meanly and spite fully opposed him to learn law.
 Possessing the ability, having the will and determination. and given the wide opportunity. Judge latt's friends feel certain that it will not take long to rrove that no mist3Ie was n.at!c by President Roosevelt in naming a .Cccssor to brilliant Judge. Townsend. and that Judge Platt will rank among the ablest. though young est, judges in the United States court.
 His fellow townsmen feel, in a re- f1ected sense. the honor that has been conferred upon Judge Platt, and unite in wishing him a long and eminently successful career.
