 It is a great pity, though, that the professor, while he was about it, did not try alcohol on an American bear If there be in all the world one animal which likes whiskey more than New England fisherman does, that animal is the plain. simple black bear of our ra- tive land. If Prof. Archant will visit the United States and get President Roosevelt or some other mighty hunter to introduce him to a bear, he will find an animal at once convivial and alice tionate. fit for highballs. fizzes, and mint juieps, and capable of slowing them away, slug for slug, with the very toughest toper in Kansas or Yer mont.

The Strain of Newspaper Work

It was the boast of Hillary Bell, who
 died suddenly of heart disease, on Thursday, that he had reduced work to an exact science" In addition to his
 main vocation of dramatic critic for d daily paper he had acquired such facil- ity in "economiZing the minutes" that he found time to edit an insurance
 paper and to contribute numerous let
 ters on dramatic topics to syndicate of western journals. And now Mir Bell Is dead at the untimely age of 47.
 The adage of "all work and no play'' does not apply to MT. Bell, because to
 him his many undertakings brought the pleasure which the great men who furnish recipes for success say shoul1 attend all effort that is to bring fame
 or fortune. He loved the activities of
 his many interests and prosecuted them with ardor, and without appre-
 hension as to his health.
 By comparison with the financial magnates who are the executive heads of at least one large corporatio and directors in a score or more of others MT. Bells labors may not appear to
 have been arduous. But the writer puts into his work a part of himself
 which must be replaced by new mental tissue, the construction of which car
 ried on by the system day after day without intermission necessitates a
 severe draft on the physical resources. When William Cullen Bryant was ed itor of the Post, and contributing . daily leading article to that paper, he refused point-blank to furnish an occa- sional extra article. "If I did so I
 should soon empty the keg,'' said he. Macaulay's daily output covered less than two pages of foolscap paper writ ten in a large hand. MT. Bell did a
 daily column of small type to begin
 with before he attended to his subsidi- ary tasks.
 His economy of minutes, as it turned
 out. meant a fatal extravaganza of | work. A laborer worthy of his hire is called on by the dictates of duty to accomplish a full and earnest days ! work. His obligation to his employer thus discharged, it is no less his duty | to himself to keep in condition by proper relaxa tion.-New York World.

Origin of the Rothschild Fortune.

The work Of removing the underpin- ming from cherished yarns goes merrily on. MT. Leopold de Rothschild, in his speech as chairman of the Newspaper Press Fund dinner in London the other day demolished the old tradition as to the way in which his grandfather oh tained advance news of the victory at Waterloo. According to the current story. which even the Encyclopaedia Brittanica repeats, Nathan Mayer Rothschild was present at the battle. and hurried back to London as soon as he SAW it was decided, getting there some hours before the news became known. and making enormous profits by buying up stocks.
 His grandson told the newspaper appeal to them as journalists, viz, that the news came through the med ium of small Dutch newspaper. The news was published in a single line Great victory of the English at Am sterdam.' His grandfather who was the owner Of some ships, told his cap tains that whenever they went any where they were always to bring him the latest newspapers. One of these trusted captains arrived with a paper announcing the great victory. His grandfather. who believed. as they all did now. in the accuracy of all news papers, immediately took the news to the treasury and gave the information to Lord Liverpool. He did not tell him how he knew it, and his news was secuted because the intelligence had arrived of the defeat of the English troops on the previous day"

Why Neglect the Bear?

Some French gentleman, excited, no doubt, by the English phrase, He drinks like a fish," has been experi- menting with alcohol and shy animals inhabiting both the water and the land. We freely admit that many o1 our metaphors are obscure, if not ira tional, and can readily understand that they mystify foreigners at every turn. He drinks like a fish is one of these whereas a fish doesn't drink" at all No more sense than d mule" is an other-whereaS a mule, compared with that noble animal, the horse. is an in- tellectual giant of the first class. Nc wonder our French friend, since he was interested in English idioms, re- sorted to investigation on his own ac- count.
 It now appears that fish dosed with alcohol will swim mcrrily about in his tank for few moments, then sink helplessly to the bottom and Hook silly" In this he bears close resem- blance to a man. But Prof. Archan; did not stop at q fish. He went fur ther. He found that dogs will not re tain pure alcohol. They are evidently not human. Dosed with a dilution, they frisk about and then become sleepy. The process of sobering off consumes much valuable time. The rabbit-that miracle. of wisdom. forti- tude and fury-goes to sleep at once. He permits himseif" no >undiguified hill arity. nor does he need Dutch cour- age" for the desperate enterprises that attend his daily life. The kangaroo wants to fight immediately.

A casual observer might judge from last nights democratic convention that your uncle Moses shermah had been getting in some fine work in the demo- cratic ranks. but as a matter of fact the ballot-box stuffers at the primary put the thing on Brother Shott. And we hasten to add that we have yet u see any indication that Uncle Nose is taking any part in this campaign We have his word that he proposes to be- come a political monk, eschew the de- vious ways of politics, and devote his energies to the laudable work of giving Phoenix an adequate water system.

W orld Strangeness.

Strange the world about me lies Never yet familiar grown! Still disturbs me with surprise, Haunts me like a face half-known.

On from room to room I stray, Yet my Host can ne'er espy, And I know not to this day Whether guest or captive I. So, between the starry dome, And the floor of plains and seas, I have never felt at home, Never wholly been at ease.

On an autumn evening. when the
crickets are out enjoying life too, II
is very interesting to be able to tell
the temperature Of the air by the
number OF chirps the cricket makes
per minute.
1t seems that the rate Of chirps is
affected by the temperature, and the
exact relation OF the temperature to
the number of chirps has been esti-
mated. with a little care in counting.
one soon becomes expert enough to
tell the temperature within one or two
degrees Fahrenheit
One meets with many discourage
ments ut first as he tries hard to count
every chirp; the cricket stops before
the minute Is up; other insects notes
drown out the cricket's; the noise or
passing vehicles. etc, are very apt to
interrupt at the critical moment Of
counting. But little patience will

When one has the average number
of chirps per minute. take one-fourth
Of that number. and add forty to that;
the result will be the temperature
within degree or two of the actual
temperature as read from thermome-
ter hung out of doors.
Another experiment is to capture q
cricket and take him into the house
and see how much faster he chirps
when he is warm.
