He Took the shower Bath.

After a week of little journeyings,
striking here and there few miles to
absorb the Yosemite valley from a
dozen coignes Of vantage, we were
whipping the Illilouette one afternoon
for mountain trout, says the Worlds
Work.

mot L"
But was there to sees The water,
as he had said, came down, a consid-
cradle part Of it, in rain and spray
that flew out on the wind incredible
distances. But to crawl down, dressed
in bathing suit, closer to the main
stream that falls to the pool and upon
the rocks, with a murderous swish in
the air and roar like a railway train
when it strikes, was daring to fool
hardness. At any moment a Yeering
wind might swing the whole mass upon
the tall, slim figure backing tentative
ly on all fours down the Jagged talus
slope, his eyeglass pebbles glinting
cheerfully. A steady breeze kept the

and the spray burgeoned out far up
the other slope. The roar was deafen-

All at once the wind shifted. The
water swung back. And in a flash the
human figure was blotted out in a del
uge that turned me sick. For a sec
ond, that seemed an hour, it played
on the spot, fiendishly, it seemed to
me, standing Mortified there, and then
slowly it swept away.
And then there was a movement, a
painful, crawling movement down there
on the slope, and 1 scrambled down
the slippery rocks to help a blinking,
creeping, much surprised youth, bleed

his clothes lay. He was still too dazed
to speak. When his breath returned
and his extra glasses were perched
again on his nose he said:

sake, come back to New England. U.s.

Some of Camden's practical poll
ticians were talking Pennsylvania poll
tics the other evening on the porch of
the West Jersey Hotel; and the con-
Versation naturally drifted into a dis
cussion of the reform movements that
have marked the campaigns here in
recent years, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. One of the group said that
Philadelphia's reformers always re-
minded him of the village tippler
whose wife, after trying for years to
cure him, felt impelled to call IN the

wound up with the sage observation:

The status of President John Mitchell
and the United Mine Workers, in
view of the conditions of the coal strike
settlement, seems to be a matter about
which there is diversity of opinion.
Many of the newspapers think Mr..
Mitchelrs position has been vastly
strengthened and that he has secured
the recognition of the union" for
which he contended so strenuously.
Others of them. however, hold that the
adoption of the arbitration plan by the
miners convention will eliminate
Mitchell and prove a death blow to
the United Mine Workers. The New
York Commercial says: when Mitch
ell shall have ordered the men under
his authority to go to work, there his
connection with one of the biggest
strikes in our industrial history will
cease. Thereafter the parties to any
ooal-mining controversy that might
arise would be the owner or the opera
tor of colliery and the men employed
there; and the government commits
sioners would sit on the case without
regard even to the existence of such
a person as John Mitchell or of his
United Mine Workers." Yet the fact
is that the government commission is
a temporary body, having nothing to
do with any other strike than the one
it was called upon to adjust, while Mr..
Mitchell and his organization would
continue to do business at the old
stand" 1t is by no means certain that
"the passing of Mitchell" has begun.
as the Commercial imagines.

CURRENT CCMMENT.

The Norfolk Cva.) Landmark Dem.)
says: Young Mr.. Gates informs the
New York Sun that his father. the IA
nous John W., cleared for the firm
of Harris. Gates & Co., the neat sum
of $1s,0O0,O00 by the recent Louisville
and Nashville deal. This is probably
some of the speculation the Secretary
of the Treasury has been violating the
law to assist
The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says:
Conditions now are not entirely I'M
like those which led to the defeat of
the Republican party in 1890. Then a
high tariff bill had been passed, higher
than had ever before been enacted;
prices had gone up and high prices
were declared by the Republican ora
tors to mean prosperity. One of the
chief of them went so far as to say
that "a cheap coat made a cheap man."
The theory seemed very fine, but peo-
pie who found that their income fell far
short, as the result of such prosperity,
of providing their families with the
necessaries of life, did not look at the
matter that way, and they voted the
Democratic ticket, hoping that at least
prices would be reduced to some ex-
tent by a reduction of those taxes inn
posed for the benefit of big corpora
tions. The same arguments are heard
on both sides now under conditions
which surpass those of 1890. Prices are
far higher now than then, and there is
increased distress in consequence.
There is a tariff law far more extreme
even than the Mckinley bill, and peo-
pie of both parties are clamoring for it's
modification. Mr.. Cleveland is, there
fore, making an exceedingly conserva-
tive statement when he says that If
the Democracy is really in earnest it
cannot fail largely to increase its rep
resentation in the next Congress- II
1t is not in earnest, 1t will not only fail,
but 1t viii deserve to fail"

The resurvey of the old Portage Rail-
way near Altoona, Pa, is causing no
end of disturbance among reptiles and
wild beasts. Several days ago labor
ers, clearing out a cutting for leveling,
unearthed a colony of 500 rattlesnakes
among the fallen rocks. Half the rep
tiles were slain by the party. Yester-
day level man disconnected his aim
while sighting when full grown deer
ran in front of his instrument. Half
an hour later a man far down the
slope dropped his implement and ran
when a mother bear and two cubs
came up in a friendly sort of way to
see what was going on. All sorts of
wild game are abundant along the line
of the old road.

The PoIiceman,s Conscience.

A London newspaper tells this an
ecdote: Last evening a strolling po-
liceman was passing the barrow of a
costermonger who was weighing out
plums to customer. The ooster, as
costers do, quickly chucked off the top
plum as overweight. The policeman.
as policemn do, took a casual plum as
his perquiste. But the bitter was bit,
for his teeth ground hard upon the
iron simulacrum of a plum 1t was
the very one the coster had thrown off
the balance. Now, what could a po-
nceman do? AS a gentleman he could
neither prosecute-for the situation
was a delicate one-nor steal a BUSH
ness asset. He took the right course.
He returned the iron plum to the stall
and took a real one"

to the speech delivered before the re-

Convention by Mr.. Charles ]. Haden OF
Atlanta as the masterpiece of the con-

Haden employed by way of illustration
was this: THE frugal man from
Maine who settled on the Georgia

tune in making honey. Unwilling to
waste the hours between suns, he
crossed his bees with lightning bugs

A funny story comes from ST. Louis
in connection with the trial of Doodle
aldermen in that city. 1t is to the
effect that one of the defendants, a
man of wealth, sent to New York for
a professional hypnotist of some rep
utation to go to st. Louis and spend
his time in the court during the pro-
gress of the trial. This hypnotist was
to keep his eye on the presiding judge
and use his best efforts to bring him
under hypnotic influence, so that rul-
ings favorable to the defense could be
secured. The story runs that the hood
Ter agreed to pay the New York pro
fessor" $4,000 for his services. Court
attendants say they noticed a mys-
FERROUS stranger in the court room
during the progress of the trial, and
the belief is that the stranger was
the hypnotist.

terms. The whipping post has been
abolished in almost every part of the
United States on the ground that it
is relic of barbarism. VIII it be
necessary to revive it as a means of
deterring the criminally inclined from
committing overt acts? Have the Pc
biologists erred in their conclusion that
the prison should be made rather a
reformatory than a place of punish
ment? In Delaware they cling to the
whipping post for wife-beaters and
certain petty criminals, and claim that
the influence of the f1ogging is de-
oidedly good.

Puts Hill" at Greenwich, Conn.

Putnam dashed on horseback when
pursued by the British. The old story
is familiar to every school child. When
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton came recently to erect mem
orial on the top of Puts Hill" they
learned, with much establishment, that
there were no steps down the declivity,
as there should have been according to
all tradition. In order to make the
scene conform to the truth of his
tory" instructions were given for the
cutting of steps in the stone on the
hillside, and the steps are now being
provided. Hereafter visitors to the
hallowed spot will be able to see the
steps down which "Old Put" would
pave ridden, IL they had been there.

There is both humor and pathos In
the plant of the Boer generals that
they are getting plenty of cheers but
little money" in Europe. All during
the war in South Africa, Continental
Europe was ever ready to applaud the
magnificent prowess shown by the Boer
fighters, but the sympathy and encour-
agement ended at that Neither France
Germany, Italy or Austria was willing
to step in and lend material aid to the
struggling people. But they were ever
ready to applaud. Applause is very
cheap. 1t is easily given, and is at
tended with no serious after-claps. But
to give money and offer life is quite
another matter. The best aid the Beers
received was given by Americans and
Irish, and when the war was over one
solitary American gave more towards
the rehabilitation of the wrecked farms
than the whole of Germany.

Industrious investigators who have
been sitting the records of the Presi-

discovered that at least one of them
has expressed positive opinions con-
corning the merits of the controversy.
This is Mr.. E. w. Parker, editor of the
Engineering and Mining Journal. who
was chosen a member of the board
as an expert mining engineer. In his
journal Mr.. Parker has. since the be-
ginning Of the strike, maintained that
there were not good and sufficient
reasons for the mem leaving their work
and tying uD the collieries. 1t may
be, however, that Mr.. Parker will be
able to divest his mind of prejudice

-ChaSed by huge whale, with

Mr.. Campbell bent himself to the oars
and tried to get in shore before the

that his efforts to reach the shore
ahead of his pursuer were futile. His
means of defense were not of much
account, but he made good use of what
was at hand. The monster opened his
jaws wide and tried to swallow the
boat, man and all. Mr.. CampbeH
reached over with an oar and for a
few minutes succeeded in keeping the
whale away. When it looked as though
Campbell was doomed, a small boat

tached to an arm reaching to an in
clined step on the ground. The step is
really a shallow box in which bait is
put to tempt the fowls. The bait is
corn scattered on the bottom of the
box, which is covered with glass. The
fowls are lured by hunger onto the
board and they pick at the kernels they
can see but cannot get. The weight of
the fowl releases the slide in the grain
box and enough food falls to the
ground to satisfy the hungriest of owls.
The idea is that a fowl will not walk
onto the boards unless hunger prompts,
and so the inventor hopes that the law
of supply and demand will work ad-
mirably.

by William H Fredericks, of Portland,
Ore. The intention of the inventor is
to make the machine exhaust the air
from the can and then seal it autos
matically without allowing a return of
the air from the outside. In order to
accomplish this purpose the only
change rendered necessary in the jar
Is the insertion of valve in the cen
ter of the screw top. The mechanism
consists of a cylinder and piston, the
latter being lifted by hand lever to
draw the air from the jar through the
connecting mouthpiece. When it is de-
sired to open the can turn of the
valve admits air and makes it easy to
unscreW the cover.
