PARIS, July 14.-The anniversary OF
the fall of the Bastile was celebrated
here today with enthusiasm.
Eyes, 1 think 1 have seen about half
the nations of the earth celebrating
their national holidays on different oc-
casions." said a Honolulu man yester-
day, "but 1 think the Frenchman takes
the cake for his Fourteenth of July.
I was in Paris on the Fourteenth of
July, 1900, and 1 can assure you the
place was gay. The whole city was a
mass of decorations. The fine avenues
and boulevards We're decorated at the
expense of the city and even the trees
all along the avenues contained myriads
of paper lights in the evening. But the
event of the day, the one attended by
all Paris was the review of the troops
at Paris famous racecourse, Long
champs"
'I went down to the racecourse about
noon. 1t is surrounded by the famous
woods of Boulogne, great park. Ev-
cry nook and corner of this place was
filed with people. All were wearing the
tricoIor and all seemed to be cheering
all the time. Picnickers made up the
majority of the crowd early in the day
and every picnic party seemed to have
a wagon load of bottles along. Shortly
afternoon the troops commenced to
march into the park. Artillery came
galloping in at a furious pace. Infant
ry came along at snails gait, swelter-
ing in the sun. Then came cavalry. A
moment later and a shout would go
along a whole avenue in he woods as
a body of lancers, with the tricolors
tied to each lance, came sweeping along
at a great rate. Generals, and other
high officers went by on stately and
spirited mounts. A popular general
would be greeted at one point with
tremendous cheers but a hundred yarus
farther along he would be Kissed by a
crowd of partisans gathered there.
Later a magnificent carriage, sur
rounded by lancers. journeyed through
the park to the racecourse. This con-
tanned President Loubet and he re-
ceived an ovation all along the line. I
think that I have never before seen
such a noisy greeting extended to any
man.

NewIy-Eiected Congressman Con
scious of the Honor.
He was a large man and his bosom
swelled with pride as he stepped up
to the desk and registered. 1t was evil
dent that he knew he was a man Of

The clerk glanced at the name and
was puzzled.
Haven't you stopped with us be-
fore, Mr. Barker?'' asked the clerk.
Dozens of times answered the
large man.

the clerk. ''but there seems to have

THE USES OF TURPENTINE.
A Very Valuable Article to Have
Around the House.

a very Valuable Article to Have
Around the House.
Turpentine, either in resinous form
or in spirits, has a household value
A child suffering with the Group or
any throat or lung difficulty will be
quickly relieved by inhaling the vapor
and having the chest rubbed until the
skin is red, and then being wrapped
about with flannel moistened with
fiery spirits. Afterward sweet oil
will save the skin from irritation,
says the Woman's Home Companion.
In the case of burns and scalds tur-
dressing for patent leather; it will
remove paint from artists clothes and
workmen's garments; it will drive
away moths if a few drops are put in
closets and chests; it will persuade
mice to find other quarters if little
is poured into the mouse holes; one
tablespoonful added to the water in
which linens are boiled will make the
goods wonderfully white; a few drops
will prevent starch from sticking;
mixed with beeswax it makes the best
floor polish, and mixed with sweet oil
it is unriyaled as a polish for furni-
ture-the latter mixture should be two
parts of sweet oil to one part of tur-
pentine. Some physicians recommend
spirits of terpentine, applied exter-
nally, for lumbago and rheumatism.
1t is also prescribed for neuralgia of
the face.

The Open Sky.

Underneath the open sky
1 would let the world go by,
Every shred of harassing
Lapsing with the swallows wing;
Every scrap from cares gray loom
Vanishing amid the bloom;
Every tissue of regret
Fading like the mists that fret
Height and hollow. ere the morn
In the Orient is born:
Every grief. or old. or new.
Soothed by Gods unchangfng blue.
And the hush-song of the rill
In the shadow of the hill.
Where the beech boughs whisper SO
Tender. lovingly. and low;
Every doubt dispelled and blown
Even from the vision-zone
By the airs as kind as creep
Through the lilied fields of sleeps
Every fear transmitted to-
Hopes as prismy as the dew.
And the old earth-joy again
Flooding soul and heart and BRAN.

DRIVEN OUT BY BOIL WEEvii
Alarming Ravages of the Pest in me
Southern States.

Alarming Ravages of the Pest in me
Southern States.
One of the most serious and damag-
ing results of the invasion of Texas by
the Mexican boil weevil is made pub
lie for the first time by ex-State Sena-
tor A. H. Carter of Fort Worth, who
states that many thousand of South
Texas farmers are leaving the state
and locating elsewhere, because of
the devastation wrought in their To-
calities by these pests, says the ST.
Louis Globe Democrat He says that
possibly $4,000 people, all told, will go
to New Mexico, Oklahoma and Indian
Territory, particularly to the two last
countries, and that he knows of many
people who have already left the state.
Not only are the boil weevil running
the south part of the state, but they
are being discovered in other Sec
tions. A farmer living in this county
has recently found the pest about five
miles north from this city. The ques-
ton, Senator Carter says, is the most
serious one that the people of not
only Texas, but the entire cotton grow
ing sections of the South, have to con-
tend with since Texas was admitted
into the Union.
