Rain Of Rats.

A very strange phenomenon has &C.
Cured in Algeria, in the district
round about Bougle, during the pas.
sage of a cyclone, which wrought
much damage. The natives who had
come into the town relate that during
the storm there was a regular hail Of
rate and mice The story, on the face
of it, appee-s improbable, but the
witnesses who testify to It's truth are
so numerous that some amount of
credence must be attached to it. It is
stated that the rodents fell in such
great quantity that during the quar-.
ter of an hour that the phenomenon
lasted al. ,ho feds were infested
Some Of the rats and mice were found
impaled IN the pointed stakes EN-.
ployed to separate one piece Of land
from another, The question natur.
ally arises: Where cid the animals

Origin of Bank Note Printing.

1t is not, perhaps, generally known
that bank OF Treasury note printing
Is carried to greater perfection in this
country than in any other. Indeed,
says the Washington Times, the indus
try originated in the United States,
whence it has spread to England and
most other civilized countries.
Jacob Perkins, Of Massachusetts,
struck the keynote of a series of great
advances in printing early in the nine
teenth century, when he substituted
steel for copper plates, and devised a
method Of making transfers Of the
original engraving in soft steel, which,
by being afterward hardened, could be
printed from. Through his eXertions
in conjunction with other banknote
printers the banknotes of this country
many years ago attained that superior
ity in artistic and mechanical execu-
ton over those Of all other nations,
which they have always since main.
tanned; and the improvements abroad
are mainly due to the fact that Mr..
Perkins went to London in 1918 and
by his labors there, in conjunction with
an eminent London engraver, Mr..
Heath, gradually disseminated a
knowledge of what was, in it's incep-
ticn, an American art, in Great Brit.
ain and on the Continent Of Europe.

Sweetness Unawares.

We've heard of the flower 'born to
blush unseen and waste its sweetness
on the desert air." but honey going to

old house in the country was being

stockton Wrote Ponr Postrv.

The late Frank Stockton never
could write a successful poem. In
this connection the novelist frequently
told good story on himself. In his
youth, in conjunction with his brother
John, he wrote many poems with
which he afflicted the editors OF vari-
GUS Canadian periodicals. The effu-
sions always came back. The editor
Of one magazine was an especial tar
get of the Stocktons, but as none of
their poems was ever accepted the
brothers came to the conclusion that
the editor had no conception Of good
poetry.
To prove their belief they hunted
up and DISPATCHED to him an ode little
known, from Milton. Within two
days they received check and let
ter of thanks. "I came to the con-
clusion that that editor knew poetry

Samar's Population,

In population the Island of Samar,
P. l., has 1886 registered inhabitants
and about 10000 native refugees living
In the mountains away from local au-
thority. The inhabitants are wholly of
Visayan stock, there being no material
Infusion Of other blood. Although, in
numbers, not so large as on the neigh
boring islands, these people have al
ways held themselves well in hand as
against the encroachments of Spain. OF
the two dominant races in the Phil
ippine Islands the Visayans number al
most two to one. They occupy the
islands which bear their name and
have shown themselves a higher type
than their rival, the Tagalog, being a
colonizing race, less given to politics
and more to industry. They also show
strongly the characteristics of their
Malay origin. From the earliest occu-
patton Of these islands they have kept
themselves in touch with the progeDi-
tors of the isles of Oceanica by means
of expeditions in pursuit of plunder or
peaceful traffic. There are thirty-two
towns and upward of 800 villages in
the island. Catbalogan, the capital,
open to coasting trade and a military
station, has a large trade with Manila
in hemp, sugar, rice and cocoanut oil.

Animals are frequently no less heroes
than human beings, and an incident of
the recent burning of the steamer City
Of Pittsburg near Ogden Landing
presents striking Illustration of this
fact
Michael Burt and his family took the
steamer at Owensboro, Ky. 1t was a
family Of thirteen and but one sur.
wives, a girl Of ten years When the
family boarded the steamer a large
Newfoundland dog followed them on
the boat in spite Of the fact that every
effort was made to keep 1t off. When
the animal saw that it would be forced
to leave the steamer it ran in hiding
until the boat was under way and
during the trip would suli along and
hide, afraid to come out for fear Of
punishment at the hands u the master
or some member of the crew.
When the fire broke out on the
steamer the dog saw members of the
family perish, and finally the ten-year.
old child, with whom it was accus.
toned to play, plunge into the water.

the faithful animal went after her,
caught her dress In it's teeth, and swan
with her to the shore, where it kept
watch until the child was taken in

For many years witches were suppos'
ed to sell the wind. The Finlanders
and Laplanders made quite trade
by selling winds. The old women,
after being well paid by the credulous
sailors, used to knit three magical
knots; the buyer was told he would
have a good gale when he united the
first knot, the second knot would
bring a strong wind, and the third a
severe tempest. At one time winds

Bret Htr ca Early Days.

An unfortunate incident of the early
career Of Bret Harte grew out Of his
acceptance of an invitation to deliver
Phi Beta Kappa poem at Harvard
soon after he had published his poem
concerning Truthful James. He came
to Cambridge and supplemented a
learned address from one of the philo
sophers of the time with a wishy'
washy poem that any amateur poet
might have addressed to his mis-
tresss eyebrows. 1t fell very fiat

Mystery Of Lost Sounds.

An eminent scientist noticing the
mysterious way in which sounds
sometimes are lost in space recently
undertook an interesting experiment
in a balloon. He found that while
still within talking distance Of earth
all sound of the human voice was
quenched in the mere indistinguish'
able hum of the human hive. Equally
lost was the striking of clocks and
ringing of bells, but dogs bark rang
out clearly. So, also, the below of
COW far out in some field would pene-
trate above the babel of busy town,
while screeching Of railway whistles
pierced the sky up to three miles
and, gathered in from vast areas,
often reached an intensity positively
painful
The strangest of all acoustic phe-
ncmena is the unaccountable silence
which sometimes ensues when sound
is to be expected. In many cases 1t
has been proved that, speaking liter
ally, the lost sounds issuing from
point on a seacoast were not eXtin'
guished, for they were heard distinct
ly farther out at sea. Heavy salutes,
unheard by people within twenty or
thirty miles have been plainly aud
ible at a much greater distance, and
