How a Statue Grew,

Very wariike is the aspect Of a sin
gular equestrian statue in Belgium, yet
there is no cause for alarm since it is
nothing but a tree. Solce ten years
ago a policeman retired from the force
and went to live near Charleroi. Being
an amateur horticulturist, he busted
himself a good deal with trees and
flowers, and one day as he was trim.
ming a hawthorn in his garden it oc-
Cured to him that it would be novel
idea to train it in such manner that
it would eventually assume the figure
of a cavalry officer. At once he went
to work, and after ten years labor he
succeeded in Transforming the tree into
perfect picture of a mounted soldier.
The tree is known in the neighborhood
as General Hawthorn" and hardly Il
day passes that strangers do not come
from a considerable distance in order
to view this wonderful example Of hor-
ticultural art.

Sherris Sack

In Shakespeare's plays the term
"sack" applied to wine is common.
"Sherris SACK" a term used by Fal-
staff, is 'seco de Xeres.'' name still
we'll known in Spain, from which the
wine comes. The epithet seco, or dry
the "sack" Of old English authors and
the '.sec" of French writerE-is used in
contradistinction to the sweet malvoi-
sizes and muscadels which are made OF
the same grapes. Wine Of this sort,
it is said. was introduced into England
about the time Of Henry VII, whose
close alliance with Ferdinand and Isa-
bella was cenaented by the marriage OF
his son with their daughter. 1t became
still more popular in England under
Queen Elizabeth. when Essex and
those who sailed with him pillaged
Cadiz in 1896 and brought home the
fashion OF drinking sherris sack.

THREATENS TILLMAN ACT.
Mayor of Hammond, Ind, Sends
Warning to an Editor.

A dispatch from Hammond, Ind,
to the Baltimore Sun says: In a re.
cent issue of the Hammond Daily
news, an Independent Democratic Or
gan, Mayor A. F. Knott's public ac-
ticns were handled without gloves.
Hot with anger the Mayor sent let
ter to Editor Swain saying in part:
"Mr. Tillman of South Carolina,
who had been bounded by a disrepu-
table sheet, found a way to stop it,
and jury of his peers has lately found
that he was justified in so doing. I
have concluded that there is a way to
stop that and propose to do it,
whether I am justified or not. If I
can't do it one way will do it
another. Hereafter you must be pre-
pared to safely prove each and all Of
your assertions OF be prepared to suffer
the consequences. :"
The News publishes the letter in
full, with a column expressing the
EDITORS fearlessness, calling the Mayor
a self confessed murderer in thought
and intent and promising to further
crit;cise until "Mr. Knott does his
Tillman act.''

The Changed Grizzly.

There are numerous reliable state
ments of grizzly bears having attacked
men, but nowadays the grizzly does
not seek out his human victims, as
there are credible statements that his
forefathers used to do. Neither does
he lie III wait and. bouncing upon a
hunter, tear him into bloody shreds in
delighted fendishness, as the old time
stories used to tell. The change in
the grizzly's disposition is likened by
veteran hunters to the change in the
character Of the white cousin of the
grizzly, tie polar bear of the arctics.
When the stations for the Hudson's
Bay company were established, the
diaries of tie men there often referred
to the fright OF attack by polar bears.
Many a navigator in the arctic seas has
been clawed and chewed to death by
polar bears But for nearly q century
the polar bear has not been regarded
as so very fierce, and nowadays it is
looked upon as cowardly beast. AS
sociation with armed men has modi-
fed the polar bears disposition.-Out-
ing.

AN INGENIOUS BURGLAR.
How He Opened Safe Without Tools
or Explosives.


An extraordinary account is given of
how safe was opened by robber
who had at his disposal no instrument
Of any kind. but operated merely with
his finger nail. The person who accom-
plished the feat revealed his intention
Of robbing the iron safe in hotel to
another young man. who happened to
be- the cousin Of the hotel proprietor.
AS matter Of course the proposed
scheme to rob was revealed to the own
er Of the hotel and little before mid
night. when it was to be put into exc
cution, e couple of detectives were con-
cealed behind the Office counter.
a short time afterward the robber
entered the Office gently. without either
tools or explosives wherewith to open
the massive iron receptacle. the CON-
bination of which it was evident he did
not knew. He had. however. resorted
to an ingenious plan Of his own.
He had pared the nail of his index
finger on the right hand until the blood
vessels we're exposed Then by placing
the sensitive wound on the combina-
ton lock he could distinguish the move
ments of the tumblers as they fell. For
more than an hour did be work. and at
last there came sharp click, and be
swung back the doors of the safe.
He was in the act Of filing his poclz-
cts with the valuable papers it con-
tained when !; damper was thrown up
on his activity by the sudden grasp Of
the detectives. under whose escort he
was taken to prison.-London Tit-Bits.

DYSPEPSIA, INDIGESTION,
AND STOMACH TROUBLES.


The torures and evils Of dyspepsia and y,
indigestion are experienced by thousands :, at
this time. The dyspeptic's train OF evlls
NAV be enumerated as follows: feelings OF
dizziness, languor, nervousness, sleeplessness,,
headache, distension of the stomach, loss OF
flesh, difficult breathing, and the action OF 'ne
heart is seriously affected. :;
All forms of dyspepsia are quickly banlshed
by the use of Paine's Celery Compound.
The use of this marvellous medicine alays the
inflammation of the nerves centred about the
stomach; it opens up the sewers OF the BODY
and removes all waste matter; 1t cleanses tne
blood: it makes new nerve fibre; it restores
digestive power, and promotes bodily strength
and activity. Mr.. Fred. Ross, Clarendon
Iowa, briefly writes about his happy expen-
ence with Paine's Celery Compound as
follows:- .t :,
"It gives me great pleasure to testify 10 the
merits Of Paine's Celery Compound. l can
candidly and honestly say it is the best medi-
cine in the world. Two years ago was SUI,
ferine from indigestion and nervousness and

Celery Compound and got better almost from

cine since. was completely cured."

fur the bed feels so cumfy, an, sure
enough, my big doctor is here.''
The great black eyes glowed Won
drous bright as they met the big doc
tors gaze, and he spoke very gently
while he stroked her hand, now thin
and transparent
Does your back ache after your long
ride on the broomstick, Jinny?"
sOh. no! The aches all gone. There
amt been any ache all day."
The big doctor looked across the bed
at Nurse Powell, but she was gazing
steadily through the open window. And
something bright and clear, like dia-
monds, shone on her long lashes.
: a weak, piping voice raised again.
"No, amt achin' any place today,
only I'm dreadful tired. An every
once in awhile you an Nurse Powell

me, an then I feel like was a-slippin'

Then p'haps I'd go to sleep again"
s Nurse Powelis quiyering lips tried
to form the notes of the nursery song
jimmy loved best, but, something rose
in her throat and choked the melody.
sI wisht-you'd, sing-that- sleepy
song"
The tired voice railed of into si-
sience, but not before the heavy eyes
were raised appealingly to those Of the
white capped nurse.
The big doctor seemed to rouse him
self as from dream. He leaned over
and clasped Jinny's neryeless hand in
his great, warm one and then in
clear tenor voice began to sing:
Sweet and low, sweet and low,
Wind of the western sea-"
The music foated over the cot, past
Nurse Powell, through the open door
and down the corridor to the ward,
where other sufferers heard and mar
veled, and over the face Of jimmy stole
an expression Of infinite peace.
In that distant ward men who had
been battling with death turned their
faces toward the sinking sun and felt
that even amid pain it was good just
to live, and in Jinny's little room all
was silent. Nurse Powell was kneel-
ing beside the bed, her face hidden in
the pillow. The little band she still
held was strangely limp and pulseless.
Then strong arm raised her to her
feet, and she looked straight into the
soft brown eyes that had followed her
all these years patiently, steadfastly.

NOnIN NATIONS WHICH HAVE

Commonly in cases where the

is fixed upon beforehand. there is
enough dou1t regarding the other
par1y's candidate to render the con-

emphaticalIy true of the present situa-
ton. Nobody doubts that the Repup-
lican nominee will be Theodore Roose-
welt, but there is the profoundest kind
of doubt concerning the choice which
will be made in the Democratic con
yent:on Nor does the uncertainty dl-
minish as the convention time ap-
proaches. The overthrow of silverism
in the recent iowa Democratic cOnven-
ton means that tr is not. the .aint-
est chance for Nh. Bryan to ever ge:
