NEGRO SCARED WHITE.
Cook of an Eastern Sail
ing Ship.

Fear of death in the midst of a storm
which threatened to send the scheon-
er Fred A. Small to the bottom is said
to have changed Herm Blanco, full
blooded negro, into a white man. The
change lasted three days. Then, so
the story goes. Blanco's natural color
asserted itself once more. and he re-
sumed his place on shipboard as
man of ebony, reports the New York
Mail and Express.
81 had heard of a negro turning
white from fright" said Capt. 2. r.
Thomson, of the Small. "but it was the
first time I ever saw such transfer
nation. Ordinarily Blanco is as black
as night but while the storm lasted
he was almost as white as snow"
In a wrecked condition the schooner
came into port the other day, and
was towed to dry dock Three weeks
ago she left Valparaiso with a cargo
of wood, birds and monkeys. Six days
later she ran into severe storm.
For four days and nights her crew
was kept on deck. On the fifth day
topmast and bowSprit went by the
board. All this time Blanco. the cook,
is said to have grown whittier and
whittier.

ORDERED THEIR HAIR CUT.
what Happened to Two Americas
Newspaper Correspondents
in st. Vincent.

The large corps of newspaper cor
respondents which went down to the
West Indies after the volcano disas-
ters brought back any number OF in
.erestiHg stories of their adventures
1T ST. Vincent and Martinique. The
best Of these, perhaps, is one concern
ing two well-known correspondents
who started to explore the streets
Of St. Vincent town, says the Wash
ington Star. One of them went into
hat shop and the other waited out
side for his companion to emerge.
While basking in the hot sunlight
a great six-foot West Indian negro
came up to him and inquired if he
was from the United States steamship
Dixie. The correspondent replied in
the affirmative, whereupon the negro
Informed him that he represented the
St. Vincent board of health, and that
the correspondent must have his hair
cut Immediately or return to his ship.
The newspaper man smiled scornful-
". The negro did not, but firmly told
him that he must take him back to
his ship if he refused to lose his back
locks. And the negro looked as if
he could do it. At this juncture the
correspondents friend came out of
the hat store and joined him. The big
negro presented the same ultimatum
TO the newcomer, and finally both cor
respondents were escorted down the
street by the alleged health official.
As they turned into an intersecting
thoroughfare the trio met with a po-
liceman, and in twinkling the stall
wart negro had become but a flying
black streak away down the avenue.
The two men told the story to the
guardian of the peace, who smiled
sardonically. "Why, that man is a
barber" he said, "and keeps shop
right down on the next corner"

FIRST SURVEY OF PANAMA.
ing Was Done Until De
Lessep's Day.

How many Americans know that the
first exploration for the route of the
Panama canal was made by II. de la
Serna as far back as 1527-2s? Many
different explorations followed. and
suggestions from various quarters,
but nothing definite was done until
De Lesseps formulated his famous
scheme. This was opposed by the
United States. Americans then want
ed the canal to go through Nicaragua,
and this plan was favored by Gen.
Grant in 1879. But nothing was done.
Says Harper's Encyclopedia of the
United States: "In 1884 the people of
the United States and France SUBJ
scribed large sums toward a French
company, headed by Count de Lesseps,
Of Suez canal fame, which announced
its intention of cutting a canal
through the isthmus of Panama" The
subsequent financial catastrophe is
we'll known. In 1899 the Panama Canal
Company of America was incorporated
with a capital of $3O,OO0,O0O. 1t was
then estimated that it would cost $685.
100000 to complete the canal.

HUNGRY TROUT BITE WORST.
That Is the Theory of Rn Angler VINO
Offers His Experience
az Proof

Every trout fisherman knows that
there are days when trout will neither
rise to any fly nor take any sort Of
bait, and nine out of ten fishermen be-
lieve that the reason for this is that
the trout are gorged with the natural
food of the waters they are in-"ain't
hungry" as the homely phrase is.
Here is the theory of an old angler on
the subject:
"Of course, even during these of
DAYS of the trout, one will be caught
now and then, but always on bait, and
If the angler could see the fish when it
takes the bait he would notice that it
does it in a very perfunctory manner.
The trout does not move out of its
way in doing it, but mechanically takes
the bait in much after the fashion Of
the sucker.
"Then, if the trout fisherman who
makes catch at such time will open
the trout and examine its stomach he
will be surprised to find that instead
of the fish being gorged with food,
and hence Indifferent to more. its stom-
ach has not a trace of food in it.
"This will be found 10 be the case in
variably, and disposes of the belief that
when trout refuse to bite it is because
they already are full flood. Itwould
naturally be supposed that the best
time to catch trout would be when
they are hungry, and that the time

young Irish couple and little child.
The little one was very playful and
peered roguishly at me over the back
of the seat. From flirting with the
little girl got into conversation with
the parents, and | noticed that to my
questions they would reply: Yes,

CAUSE AND CURE OF BoILs.
Bacteria Which Penetrate the Skin
and Produce n Most Distress
ing Affection.

Boils are directly due to infection
Of the tissues with germs. There are
always found upon the skin germs
capable of producing boils and other
forms of suppurative processes if in
troduced into the system. Ordinarily,
however, the body does not suffer
from the close proximity Of these noX-.
ious elements, for the reason that the
tissues are able to destroy. in various
ways, the small number Of bacteria
which penetrate the skin, says Good
Health. When, however, by any
means the vitality of the system be-
comes lowered to a sufficient degree,
invasion by these parasitic microbes
through scratch, a pin prick, or any
other abrasion of the skin. may give
rise to the multiplication of germs and
the production of pus, with the ac-
companying swelling, pain and sup
puration.
Some of the most common causes
of the tissue degeneration which rem
ders the production Of boils possible
are fesh-eating, the free use of fats,
constipation and Indigestion. Repeat
ed attacks of boils can be averted only
by removing the cause, whatever it
may be. A nonfesh dietary is in the
highest degree important in cases of
this sort. The use of antiseptic tab
let's is a valuable means of destroying
the germs that are present in the
stomach and bowels, or of preventing
their further development. An al
most exclusive fruit diet should be
adopted for few days, and the plan
Of making one meal of the day entire
ly of fruit should be followed for a
few weeks at least. A daily warm
bath, followed by a short cold bath,
plenty Of out-of-door exercise, and
care to secure prompt, regular, daily
movement Of the bowels, are other
measures of Importance. A boil may
generally be avoided by injecting into
it a few drops Of 2o-per-ceDt, solu-
tion of carbolic acid. Hot applications
are useful in relieving pain.

INrRODUCTION ETIQUETTE.
gome Rules which Are Generally
Recognized by People In
Polite Society.

1t is always proper for a gentle
man to ask some common friend to
introduce him to a lady. Men seldom
ask to be introduced to each other.
A lady in her own house may intro
duce all her guests without previous
ly asking permission. At large recep-
tionS introductions are not expected
except to the person or persons In
whose honor the hospitality is given,
but at less formal occasions guests
should be presented to each other
when it can be done without great
effort. 1t is not customary in polite
society to introduce an incoming Wis
itor to more than one person at a
time or a very small group, and an
interesting conversation must not be
interrupted for the purpose Of intro
ducing new member to the group.
At dancing party or ball where much
of the pleasure depends on having
plenty of partners and acquaintance
it is well for the hostess or patroness
to introduce the guests as generally
as may be agreeable, always asking
lady's permission when a man wishes
to be presented, says American Queen.
Many persons in making an intro
duction pronounce the words so care
Iessly that neither is able to guess the
others name when the form is over.
It is better to confess at once if a
name has escaped your memory, and
ask the person to repeat it to you
so that you can introduce him without
any misunderstanding or embarrass-
ment. Always remember to say the
names intelligibly.
Casual introductions upon the
street, in a store or place Of public
amusement may be made to avoid
stiffness or embarrassment, but ac-
uuaintances made in this way are sell
dom claimed afterwards, unless there
is a decided and obvious pleasure to
beth PARTIES in pursuing the acquain-
tance 50 slightly begun.
An obscure private individual should
never be eager to be presented to a
celebrity; acquaintance should be
made through natural means, never
forced, and prominent and distin-
guished persons are as a rule too busy
to spend much time upon unknown
persons unless some real good is like
ly to result.
A lady: unless she has quite the adj

Women In the Government Treasury
Department Who Are Poorly
RecOmpensed.

In the great printing Office at
Washington where the government
paper currency is prepared for cir
culation there are some very skillful
women who receive only small pay.
This is notably true Of those who
inspect and count the sheets of bills
as they come from the presses, says
the Chicago Chronicle. Every sheet
contains four bills, each Of which
must be perfect. If there is ever SO
small a spot or flaw in the printing
the bill is rejected. These women
have to be experts who have served
in all the capacities from printers
assistant up, until they can detect in
an instant a flaw which would not
be seen by the unframed eye. They
inspect and count 10000 sheets of
bills a day, and their compensation
is $500 a year; they have to pass
rigid examinations before they can
get into the service at all.
Persons who suffer from the heat
in summer should be comforted
whenever they lick postage stamn1
for the girls who put the sticking
material upon that stamp are In a
much warmer place. During the av-
erage warm day in Washington the
thermometer stands at ITO degrees in
the big room where the govern
ment's stamps are coated with glue.
The sheets of stamps are run
through long boxes filled with very
hot air in order to dry them thor
oughly. and these heated boxes raise
the temperature of the room in spite
Of open windows and many electric
fans.
