HOW CONNECTS KILL TIME.
Interesting Fruits of the Industry and Ingenuity of Prisoners in
 Philadelphia Penftentiary.

It is at once interesting and pa. thetic to go through the cells of the Eastern penitentiary and to note the. objects which, with tedious pains, the prisoners have made to while the time away, says the Philadelphia Rec ord. Here mantel will be hung with; a lambrequin, elaborately fringed, the fine knots and delicate patterns of the threads comparing with the work of the French lacemakers. The lam breouin is of an odd blue hue, and the visitor is told that it is made of an old pair of prison trousers. On lit tie gilt bracket is small stuffed ani- mai. The bracket, so delicately turned, is of newspapers pasted to- gether and gilded, and the animal is a rat, caught in a homemade trap stuffed with rags, and with pieces o chewing-gum, co1ored with shoe. blacking, for it's eyes. A wall is com-' pletely covered with a really artistic decoration of reeds, on which are perched at least 200 birds, each accu- rately colored and drawn. There are also numberless checkerboards and sets ofSchessmen that, in the delicacy of their inlay work and in. the inrri- cacy of their carving, would do horror to the craftsmen Of the orient.

THE HOP CONGRESS.
Pages in the House of Representa- tives Have 8 Congress of Their
 own Formation.

The bright youngsters who serve as pages in the house of representative at Washington have formed what they gall the "hop congress" They call it so because the members put in their time during the sessions of the real house hopping around from desk to desk on errands for the legislators. The ''hop congress" assemblies at 9:3O o'clock i'll the morning, before the gen uine members are at their desks, and it's deliberations are carried on with as much dignity and precision as is the real thing which assemblies at noon. Page J. H. Hollihg of New York, is the speaker of the miniature congress and he dispenses his rulings from the chair which Speaker Tender son occupies later in the day. He em- phasizes his remarks by pounding the same marble slab that speaker Hen derson pounds. MT. Payne's desk is occupied by the chairman of the junior ways and means committee and Mr. Dalzen's by the leader of the com mittee on rules. The pages. have a ser geant al arms and clerk of the house and recently legislation reached such a stage that it was found imperative to nave a Mai. Pruden to deliver mes- sages from the president.

THE MINISTER'S THANKS

Here is a story which Senator Thurston regaled some of his New York friends with during his recent visit to this city:
 There was a minister in little Ne braska town who had two matters which were very close to his heart. He had prayed long and earnestly that the mortgage on the church might be paid off and that he might have a son and heir. Not long ago boy came to gladden. his heart an home, and on the same day the rich man of the village died. leaving $5,090 with which to pay off the church debt.
 "The town was wild with excite ment over the double event and bets were freely made as to which subject was closest to the minister's heart, and which he would refer to first in his sermon on the following Sunday. The eventful day arrived and excite ment ran high. There was an expect ant hush when the minister entered the pulpit. ,x
 My friends he said, you know what has been close to my heart for many years, and you know of the joy full happenings of the past week. And now, my friends, 1 want you to join with me in thanking God for the sue cor that has been sent us.'

FACTS ABOUT BRAZIL.
According to Resident of That Country 1t Is the Best Friend
 of the United States.

Senor F. de Gaffee, an affable young gentleman of Portuguesea ancestry from Brazil, has been studying in New York in the last few years, and has also wis ited England, Germany, France and Russia, studying the customs and life of the people, says the Denver Repub- lican.
 "Of all countries in the world, Brazil is most friendly to the United States,'' said Senor de Gaffee. "The people are Portuguese, not Spanish. and they have none of the feeling which the war with Spain caused among the Spanish-American coun- tries. Brazil stands with America in the support of the Monroe doctrine.
 T cannot understand why it is that people in this country know so little about Brazil. We have, except Russia, absolutely the largest country in the world of continuous boundaries. Bra gil is larger than the United States, and has wider range of climate, ex- tending from the tropics at the Amazon south into climate which is colder than this--in Rio Grande do Sul, the state in which is my home. That is the southernfnost state of Brazil, and was recently the seat of a revolt. There are 200, GOO cowboys in the state, most of them Indians and wilder even than the cowboys out here. So you see it was a sort of cowboy revolt, and nothing that could be important at all. Brazil is through with revolu- fiouS inst a < wa are thro11Ch with th Q monarchy, and the 2o.ooo,o0o of white inhabitants are settled down to the work of making ours nation commen- surate in importance with the size and the resources ofEthe country"

HE WANTED TOO MUCH. 2
Refused to Buy Watch That Had Lost Five Seconds in a TriaA
 of Seven Weeks.

"Some folks want the earth, and that's no lapse from the confines Of yeracity," remarked the head watch maker connected with a big downtown iewelry establishment, relates the Washington Star. "A couple of months ago the boss handed me one of the best watches we have in the house. He said he wanted it regulated and instructed me to give it my best attention, explaining that if the time piece proved satisfactory the store could dispose of an even dozen like it to the purchaser, who represented cor poration requiring correct time in the conduct of it's business.
 .Wen, adjusted the delicate ma chinery and asked the possible pur- chaser to carry the watch in his pocket for several weeks and then bring it in for me to note how it was behaving. He reappeared at the end of seven weeks and,i reporting that the time piece during that period had lost five seconds, announced that his require ments had not been met and that the sale was off. The boss curtly re- marked that he did not care for such trade, adding that any closer running than had been exhibited by the watch was well-nigh impossible.
 "No," concluded the watch maker, sadly "some folks wouldn't be satis- fled if they handled the switch that controls the earth.'

HOPI SNAKE DANCES.
One of Thirteen Religions Cere- monies of Nine Days Among
 Arizona Indians.

Dr. George A. Dorsey of the Field Columbian museum, Chicago, recently delivered a lecture on "The Hopi Snake Dance'' at the Museum of Sci ence and Art of the University of Pennsylvania. The lecture was illus trated with lantern slides of photo- graphs taken by Dr. Dorsey on a re- cent visit to these peculiar people. The snake dance is one of 13 religious ceremonies of nine days each which occupy the attention of the Hopis, who live in the northern part of Arizona.
 During the first four days of the festival the country On every side is secured and every snake of any de- scription that can be caught is brought into the village. The most successful snake catcher was small boy, who caught 14 reptiles, six of which were rattlesnakes. On the ninth day of the festival occurs the great snake march. The Indians are divided. into squads of three; the first of these is called a carrier" He takes a snake and puts it in his mouth, grasping it about four inches from it's head; the second member of the squad is called the "hugger," and he places his arm around the carriers shoulders. The third member is the "gatherer," who picks up any snakes dropped by the carrier during the rounds of the vil- 1age.

 VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 The Celestial Choir novelty acted as a magnet to draw a good sized audi ence to the Jacques this afternoon, and t is proving a splendid attraction. Miss Gertrude Haynes, who introduces the novelty has succeeded ins giving to vaudeville something quite as unique as it is original. and the persistency with which MT Keith has exploited it in every house under his control during the first three seasons is sufficient proof of it's worth. There are 20 fresh young male voices in the choir. and Robert MacDuff, the phenomenal boy soprano of New York, who leads the singing, has a voice of rare sweetness and fibre. Miss Haynes has invested the act with beautiful scenery and elaborate light effects, thereby giving a touch of effective realism to the sa- cred song "At the Old Cathedral Door, which is the basis of the-act Tn addi- ton to this novelty, however. there is < a great vaudeville bill, prominent in which is f'Lady Africa" an act in which ten well known colored players take part. Among them are Al and Mamie Anderson, Smith and Bowman and others. On the bill besides are Marion and Vedder, Al Lawrence. the N1lora Sisters and others, making a bill of great strength. Prices are 10 and 20 cents afternoon. ladies 10; even ing prices, 10, 20 and 30 cents.

The depot at Lockhart JUNCTION 8
miles above Union, was broken into
last Saturday night. Entrance wa
made by breaking ont two psnes Of
glass in the Telegraph operators Office

this time, and got nothing of value.
Ihis breaking in business is getting
to be rather monotonous, and we
think that the scoundrels should be
hunted down. A little dose of hemp
might work miracles in stopping this
business.
