two together compared vintages of

told some voety stories like the Duke

their pocket money never proved
enough. AS for the general peace of
Europe, or war in the Balkans or any
thing useful in trade or commerce the
ministers had to attend to that.

STORY 0F < SKUNK
Why Reasonable Knowledge of
 the Animal Is Desirable.
One Instance in Which the Little Beast Was Liberated Becauae No One Who Wanted Him Under-
 stood His Methods.

l believe that reasonable knowledge of skunks is apt to be very useful to one who lives in the country, for it will not only keep him from making unfortunate
 mistakes himself now and then, but will enable him to appreciate the1udicrous &C., cidents which occasionally arise from the ignorance of others
 The advantage of working knowl- edge of skunks was brought to my atten- ton only few weeks ago. A boy, one of number had been trying to breakto the practice of trapping small animals, called at my house, to inform me that he had caught a muskrat in steel trap. and wished to know if would come and help to pull 1t out of the hole from which he had been unable to dislodge 1t, Calling to my assistant to come along, followed the boy to the outskirts of a small town, where the trap had been set As came within quarter of mile of the spot, noticed faint odor which made me sls- nect that the boy had been mistaken in his diagnosis. Before we arrived, I was sure of it, but said nothing. and, reach ing down. took the chain of the trap in my hand and pulled The animal certain iy did stick fast, but presently felt it's hold giving way. and when had drawn 1t to within perhaps foot of the open ing. called to the boy to do his share of the work
 I You can easily manage 1t now" said. Just pull him. right out"
 As the boy took hold of the chain, I stepped back, and motioned to my assist ant to do likewise. There was sturdy tug at the chain, and out upon the grass dopped great big skunk. The boy's eyes almost popped out of his head with sur prise and he dropped the chain as if it had burned him. The animal headed for the burrow at once, but would not have this. called on the boy to stop him, and as he took hold of the chain again. I called his attention to the fact that the skunk had already been 24 hours in the trap. and that if he allowed 1t to escape with that trap on its leg should refer his case to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Ttold him further that, If he wanted the skunk, he must

ORIGIN OF WORD "GRoG.'

Captain Charles Barr of the yictori- ous yacht Reliance recently told the curious story of the origin of the word grog.
 .'In the olden time'' said Captain Barr, "the sailors in the royal navy of Great Britain got their daily allow ance of rum or brandy neat-they got 1t. that is to say. undiluted, and they drank 1t undiluted, coughing and gasp ing as they downed the fiery stuff.
 "But when Admiral Vernon took command he changed all that. He is sued an order to the effect that every ship in the navy must serve out the seaman's daily drink in a weakened condition -one-third rum and two thirds water, I think 1t was and there after there was no more coughing and gasping. but there was, you can bet. a lot of cursing and swearing instead
 Admiral Vernon always used to wear coat of that peculiar rough, stiff cloth called grogram. The sailors on that account called him old Grogran1.' and this nickname in course of time they shortened down to old Grog.'
 Next they began to call Admiral vernon's weak drink after him: they called 1t old sgrog. and finally. drop ping the sold they just called it 'grog. Contemptuously you know
 "So. now, when you hear sailors talking about their grog, you'll know that they are referring perhaps un- consciously--to the old British sea dog, Admiral Vernon. " Chicago Chronicle.

The fact that intellect was placed third on the list surprised many people, but this is true. Sup pose a brilliant man does certain piece of work in certain time; anoth- CT man does the same work in twice the time; the first is usually consid- cred as having about twice the intel iect of the second, and by the ordinary definition of intellect, which empha- sizes the time element, this is true. But any one with average brains can work out any reasonable proposition, provided he works at it long enough, and this ability, of which | have spo- ken-the ability to keep a proposition constantly in front of one, the quality of imagina tfon constitutes the differ- ence between the finally effective man and the so-called brilliant : thinker. Brilliancy is merely the time-factor of application.

Speaking of football and fooths

Speaking of football and football players, writer in sporting journal says that the weakness of the Carlisle Indians is an argument in favor of the claim that football is question of the trained mind as much as the powerful body. It is mental alertness and adaptability that the Carlisle players find themselves lacking when they meet first class teams. To analyze and meet the unexpected, and to solve the problems of a scientific attack and defense of style to which they are not accustomed puzzles the slower and less effectively trained mind of the In dian, and he cannot make as quick a change Of mental base as ths white youth. This is to be expected, and the | astonishing feature of 1t is that the Tn dian player is able to make the show ing he does.

While his opponents shout and rave in moments of great stress, he plays the game In silence, without show of emotion, whether he wins or loses the type of the true sportsman.

RAGE WITH A MOOSE.

 Highway in Maine.

MT Judkins's Odd Experience on a
 Highway in Maine.
 Ernest C. Judkins had a remarlzab ble experience with a bull moose on the carriage road to Deer Head farm, two miles from here, says a Kineo, Me, cor respondent of the New York Sun. MT Judkins was taking morning ride, galEoping along level stretch, when the horse came to a sudden standstill with jolt and snort. Looking ah6ad Mir Judkins saw a large bull moose feeding on the tender sprouts of the bushes growing by the roadside, not sixty yards away. The moose. appar- ently, did not see the horse and rider. Mir Judkinss first impulse was to ride the moose down. but he thought better of this and hooted to attract the animals attention. and possibly fright en him from the road so that he could proceed, but the moose fed calmly on. At the end of a few minutes the beast moved down the road in search Of more food, and Mir Judkins followed at a respectful distance. hooting until his throat was hoarse. This process was repeated over half mile of road.
 At the end of that distance the moose faced about and began feeding toward the horse and rider, casting an uncon- cerried look in their direction every now and then. and Mir Judkinss steed did the backstep for a few rods. This was a little too much for the horseman. and becoming impatient 7ie shouted to attract the attention7 Of the moose, plSnged his spurs into his horse and made for the big animal
 With the first leap of the horse the indifferent attitude of the moose changed to one of concern and turn ing abruptly about he started down the road at a clumsy trot. This gave a new and more interesting phase to the situation, and urging on his horse, MT Judkins proceeded to have his share of the sport, only hoping that the. moose would keep to the road The moose obliged in this particular. and the horse. being a good one, entered intp the spirit of the race. but try as he could the distance between him and the fleeing animal did not lessen ma terially.

The coming fall elections are inn portant as showing the drift of public opinion on political issues. and es- pecially how the voters of the states in which elections are held view the course of the republican administra. ton. If the republicans hold their own, 1t must be taken for granted that the majority Of the voters of the United States are satisfied to continue the extortion of the trusts through the protective tariff and the continued high prices of the cost Of living. By endorsing the republicans, the voters will sanction the program that the leaders of their party have agreed upon. allowing congress to take no action other than to pass the approprl. ation bills and adjourn at the earliest day practicable. That would mean the transcontinental railroads have sufficient influence with the republican leaders to prevent the building of the Panama or Nicaragua canal; that no action will be taken upon treaties which President Mckinley 50 evident ly wished to see ratified. to ward of the inevitable reform of the tariff, which he foresaw must come unless some relief from monopoly was grant ed; that the much-agitated labor legis,
 lation is again to be postponed. and that the promises made in the republi- can platform are again to be broken.
