rns Young Women In the Hotel
Thought They Were Aboard Ship.
The experiences of the hotel clerk
are varied, but it is seldom that he has
to deal with a proposition like that
which befell Richard Munsche Of the
Republican house in Milwaukee during
one of the foggy nights last fall.
The atmosphere was so thick that
the train on the Wisconsin Central
railway was delayed some two hours.
Among the passengers that arrived in
Milwaukee were two women, who de-
sired to take the Pere Marquette
steamer for the other side of the lake.
They announced their intention to the
busman, climbed into his vehicle with
the other passengers and were driven
to the Republican house. The fog had
settled down over the building and
nothing but the "lower lights could be
seen a-burning." They followed the
other travellers into the house, we're
given rooms and went to them. Later,
says the Milwaukee Sentinel, one Of
the women appeared on the stairway
just back OF the gentlemanly clerk anu
said:
THAT is a real nice stateroom you
have given us. 1t is by far the best
1 have ever had. But when does this
boat leave for Manistee?"
when does this boat leave for Man
istee?' repeated the clerk. This is
not steamboat, madam; this is a ho-
tel"
"This is not steamboat! Why we
told the omnibus mar to take us to the
dock, and supposed he had done SO,
Have we time to catch the boat now?'
mo, it left half an hour ago."
well, this is a joke on us. We
shall have to stay in our 'stateroom
on land until the boat leaves to-mor-
row night"

A Bripht Teacher.

In spite of all that has been written
In spite of books magazine articles and
newspaper articles, in spite of lectures
stereopticon talks and social talks, the
fact remains that the bulk of people on
the mainland know very little about
us, says the Honolulu Star. 1t was
only the other day that one OF the
teachers passing through to Manila
commented upon the fact that Homo
lulu had the appearance Of an Ameri-
can town. The reply was:
why, this is an American town.
You are still in the United States"
And then she said, do you know,
always thought that the Hawaiian ISL
ands belonged to Japan"
This damsel was going to help to
teach the Filipinos geography. 1t is to
be hoped her Asiatic geography is OF o
somewhat better brand than her cos.
mographlc views upon the Pacific.

Don't slight tho LET. HAND.

Because the right one generally Is
the stronger and more skilful, we are
likely to keep the other back, so to
speak, and make it less strong and less
skilful than before.
Be more impartial with your hands
than you are naturally disposed to be.
Trust the left one with few matters
that require strength or skill. Perhaps
without too much trouble you can be-
come ambidextrous--so that you can
use one hand about as we'll as the
other Garfield did and always held
that it was great advantage.
1t is good idea to give the left hand
plenty to do. Their are numberless
ways in which 1t can be given a
chance
There was once clerk who spent a
little of his spare time in learning to
write with his left hand. FLO soon af-
terward sustained a hurt to the right
one, so that he must have been out OF
work for some weeks but for his time

DISPENSE WITH THE BIBLE.
witnesses In Maryland Courts Required
Simply to Affirm

wItAcsSes In Maryland Courts Required
Simply to Affirm
The Bible will be dispensed with
hereafter in administering oaths gener-
ally in the United States District and
Circuit Courts at Baltimore. as has
been the practice for some time in the
state courts. An order to this effect
was signed by United States Judge
Morris.
The order states that when not spe-
cially prescribed by the Constitution
of the United States or an act of Con-
gress. the form of oath In the United
States Courts shall be the same as Is
prescribed by the laws Of the State OF
Maryland (Acts of 1898, chapter 75).
Under the new practice the person
making oath will hold up his right
hand and in the presence Of Almighty
God solemnly promise or declare" to
tell the truth. except In those cases
wherein this form is not practicable or
when 1t shall appear that some other
mode is more binding upon the con-
science OF the person to be sworn.
Heretofore persons taking the oath
have been required to kiss the Bible

A,nhabet engraved on PINS Head.

To engravo the whole twenty-six let
ters of the alphabet on the head Of
an ordinary pin is a very large-or
rather small-order Yet the feat has
been accomplished. 1t is the work Of
a young English engraver, who, being
shown a three-penny-bit ON which the
Lords Prayer had been engraved,
wondered If it were not possible to
outrival the feat. By the aid of a
strong microscope and minute engrav-
ing tools he cut clearly and lightly the
alphabet on the head of an ordinary
pin. The letters are so minute that
they appear mere formless specks to
the naked eye.

Lie served a Good Purpose.

Not one but many lives were saved
at Savannah, Ca, three years ago,
when the man who beat cymbals in the
orchestra of Haverlys minstrels jump
ed before the footlights and told a
ready lie in all earnestness and COM
posure.
The fire was in the wings, and the
whole company had rushed from the
stage. Smoke had not invaded the
auditorium, however, and the cymbal
player, seeing what would happen with
the rush of the minstrels, jumped to
the stage and changed his cymbals for
attention.
There is a fire across the street" ="
he said, clearly and calmly, "but 1t
would be well enough for us 10 leave
the theater. Will those at the back
pass out first. There is plenty oi
time"
But even as he spoke he could fee,
the rush Of hot air in his face, and
ten seconds later a dash of flame and
smoke swept on to the stage. How.
ever, all the exists were open by that
time and the spectators, reassured by
the liars composure, were filing out
with such a semblance Of order that
no one was injured,

When Joseph Chamberlain came
over to the United States one of the
objects of his visit was to find out
what kind of girl Miss Mary Endi-
colt Chis present wife was. His son,
Austin Chamberlain, had met her In
Europe, fell very much in love with
her, and asked his fathers consent to
address her. The old gentleman was
somewhat chary of American wives
for gentlemen.
Before giving his consent he con.
cluded to meet the lady in person, and
Investigate herself and family. A
night or two after his arrival in this
country there was a ball at the Brit.
ish embassy.
Mr.. Endicott, then Mr., Cleveland's
secretary of war, and his daughter
were among the guests. Mr.. Chamber
lain particularly noticed stately and
beautiful girl whose unaffected dig.
nifty greatly pleased him. He asked
to be presented. To his surprise and
qualification he was introduced to Miss
Endicott. During the entire evening
he paid her assidious attention. The
next day he called at her fathers resi-
dence. He soon became satisfied as
to the social status Of the Endicotts
He finally succumbed to the charm Of
the fair girl, and instead of sanction
ing Austin's suit, addressed her him.

or of the stuff.
Temperance people in Europe were
recently much surprised at the discov-
cry that the deadly absinthe was or
iginally an extremely harmless med
ical remedy.
1t was a French physician who first
used it. His name was Ordinaire, and
he was living as refugee at Couvet'
In Switzerland, at the close Of the
eighteenth century. Like many other
country doctors at that time, he was
n druggist and his favorite remedy was
a certain elixir of absinthe, Of which
he alone had the secret
At his death he bequeathed the form
ula to his housekeeper, Mile. Grand
pierre, and she sold it to the daughters
of Lieutenant Henroid. They culti-
waited in their little garden the herbs
necessary for concocting 1t, and after
they had distilled a certain quantity
of the liquid they sold 1t on commits
sion to itinerant peddlers, who quickly
disposed Of 1t in the adjacent towns
and villages.
Finally, during the first decade of
the nineteenth century, wealthy dis
tiller purchased the formula, and very
soon afterward he placed on the mar
ket the modern absinthe, which differs
greatly from the old medical remedy,
since the latter contains no alcohol
and very little absinthe.

ON LIFE's JOURNEY.
Average Man Walks Many Thousand
Miles Before His End.

Average Man Walks Many Thousand
Miles Before His End.
How many miles nun walks in his
lifetime depends, naturally, upon how
much he walks day on the average;
but the man who walks the least COW
ers a vast number of miles before he
dies. Some men walk two miles day,
some four or five, and some as many
as ten. II a man walks two miles q
day and lives to be thirty years old he
will cover 21,900 miles. At the same
age a man who walks three miles a
day will have walked 92,S50 miles. AL
most every man walks between two
and three miles day just in going
about tho house, the Office, the shop,
and IN going to and from the cars,
etc.
A man who walks five miles day
finds that at the age of 30 he has COW
cred 54,750 miles and at the age Of go,
500. From this should, strictly
speaking, be subtracted the few months
or year when he was baby unable
to walk, but the result would not be
affected materially
Now, the circumference of the earth
at the equator is only 24,S99 miles, Sc
therefore a man who at the age Of &C
has averaged FIVE miles a day since he
was able to walk has walked enough
miles to have encircled the earth -four
times and have good many miles left
over toward the fifth lap.-New York

nfsas,lred by Music.

A learned scientist has recently
shown how the velocity of the wind
can be reckoned by noting the musical
pitch of the sound given out when the
wind blows across stretched wire.
The principal elements on which ths
calculation is based are the diameter
OF the wire and the temperature OF the
air. The length Of the wire is inmate
rial, so long as 1t is not changed. Ev-
cry variation in the winds velocity is
faithfully represented by the rising or
falling of the pitch OF the note sung BY
