QUEER BELIEFS.
Burying Hair and Strings Will Make -
Child Grow.

"All superstitions are DID," said Al
phonse Burke, one OF, the deputy clerks
in the civil district court clerks Office.
They are like maxims, not good unless
aged. Now, know something about
superstitious beliefs. / have applied
some of them to my own affairs; 1
have studied more of them and tried
to influence the drift of the family OF
bipeds to which belong. A friend OF
mine in the Office here, Jack McCor-
mick, laughed at me for saying that
the surest way Of making baby grow
was by burying a twine string the
exact length of the child. / have heard
that all my life, but never saw 1t dem
Onstrated, but I have seen another
method Of making baby grow proved.
In fact, i can file myself as an ex-
hibit in proof of this statement. Look
at me. Observe my rotund figure. My
height is in proportion. 1 may not be
handsome and my image does not
stand in front of any clothing store.
but you must admit that am not an
ungainly specimen of the family OF
bipeds to which belong. That is nat
ural, you will say. Superstition had
nothing to do with it; that just grew
this way. So I did. But why? All
chances were against me. My family
may have given up all hope for me.
for all my friends know. And yet
am here in a somewhat thrifty pack
age.
Let me tell you what happened to
me when I was still unconscious Of
life's responsibilities. I was a mere
child and just do remember the oc-
currence. An elder brother Of mine.
who believed to some extent in the
runes and redes of superstition, as
serted with all assurance that would
grow up to be fine-looking man.
One day he stole me out, and, in order
to make his prophecy good, led me into
the pasture. He produced an augur
and bored hole in a white oak tree.
He first measured my height and bored
the hole exactly that distance from the
ground. In this hole he placed a curl
of my hair, which he sawed off with q
knife. Then he sealed the hole in the
tree by stuffing the shavings and bark
in it. Up to that time I had been sick
~ and had refused to grow. I was
what my old black nanny called the
'runt' of the family. Take my word
for it, after that I started to crow, and
here you see me. The last time I saw
that white oak tree the augur hole,
then merely scar on the tree, was
twenty feet from the ground. or
course, I was not expected to grow
to that height. Now explain this
thing" after you, my dear AL
phonse," said Jack McCormick.-New

Tokell Beaten.

Detroit. England has tried for
another championship and sustained
another defeat. Her champion ban
tam, Andy Tokell. was beaten by
Harry Forbes, the champion bantam
weight of the world. Forbes was
given the decision at the end of the
tenth round. He won the fight from
start to finish and had the better OF
every round with the possible ex-
ception of the seventh, in which he
held his own, and proved himself
the superior of the English cham
plon. in everything that goes to
make champion. with the excep-
ton of courage, and in this he was
equal to Tokell.

English Sunday Newspapers.

London. THE decision of the city
of London Court is that English
newspaper proprietors, in the eye
the law, are manufacturers, and a.
such do not Infringe on the Lords
Day Observance Act by publishing
Sunday papers. This important and
somewhat curious decision came up
through a suit brought by Lloyd'e
Weekly to recover payment for Sun
day papers delivered to q country
news agent who had refused to pay
under the pretext that the Sunday
laws made the claim invalid.
