GENERAL sHERMAN's FRIEND.

Upon a certain occasion General Sherman was
the guest of honor at a banquet, after which
reception was held. Among the line of people
who filed in and out to shake hands with the
great war hero General Sherman perceived
face that was very familiar, but which he could
not place.
who are you?" he asked in an apologize
aside, as he welcomed the guest heartily.
The man blushed and murmured behind a
deprecatOry hand:

An, of course exclaimed the General loudly
turning to the receiving committee behind him.

MoUNEr-sULLEY's HAMLET.

Some years ago it was my good fortune to
attend the presentation Of Hamlet at the
Coincide FRANCHISE that two weeks later
crowned MoUnet-SuIly the greatest Hamlet Of
the modern stage" Among the incidents that
stand out in my recollection Of the evening are,
first of al, my unseemly laughter before dis
covered that il a serious performance taken
seriously by the audience that packed the house,
secondly my ejaculation-has smOthered un-

HOPI SONGS.

These songs for different purposes are differ
ent in character. They all definite in form,
with fOrceful. graceful poetic words. The
Katcina dance songs consist of Introduction
on vowel syllables then the song itself, also
interspcrsed with vowel refrains, and lastly a
sort of coda, again on vowel syllables
And the HOpis sing. Theirs is grooming
over camp fire, no monotonous chanting, no
nasal drOning. The men have fine clear voices
tone, the quality of which sounds often just a
little sharp i'll pitch The gentle lullabes, the
pretty, graceful basket songs of the women and
the melodies to which they grind their corn are
as different from the rugged, rhythmic Katcina
songs as are the cliffs of the mesa from the
blossoms in the fields beloW.-(Natalie Curtis

TELLING TINE BY THE PORCH.

The oldest system by which men have told
the time of day is dials. There are sun
das still in existence since long before the
Christian era; in fact they have been found in
Egypt dating before the PharaOhs.
The Indians and wild nations told the time by
the position of the shadows of trees or noun
tains. The Chinese have carried the art of sun
dlalS To perfection and to-day pocket
sun dias instead of watches. one Chinese
matchmaker has arranged his front porch in
such way the shadow of the posts tells the
time by which TO regulate the watches.-Ada

HOW LONG MOSQUITOES LIVE.

1t is not known Just how long mosquitoes can
live but their average life is much longer than
is ordinarily supposed. Thousands of them live
through winter, alternating or asleep in dark
places in barns or house cellars. In SparSely
settled localities, where they cannot find such
places for shelter, they live through the winter
in hollow trees in caves and holes under up
turned trees; and even though the temperature
may fall far below freezing. they are not winter
killed, but on the approach of warm weather
become active again. Mosquitoes frequently
seen flying about III the woods before the snow
has wholly left the ground.-(William Lyman

AT THE HEAD OF THE STEEL TRUST.

There are two very striking facts about the
recent selection of William e. Corey to be nomi-
nally assistant to the president but actually the
head of the United States Steel Corporation.
One is that at the age of thirty-seVen he be
comes the directing power of the biggest cor
poration in the world. The other is that asi 3e
from his knowledge of the steel business and
his proved ability in executive positions, the
chief consideration that led to his appointment
apparently was the belief that he would prove
a safe and conservative man in the position.
We think of conservatism as associated nat
urally with gray hairs and dignity, but the man
who sits at the presidents desk in the offices
of the Steel Corporation to-day is a short, stur-
Oily built, blue eyed and rudy checked indi-
vidual who looks more youthful even than his
years would indicate and who puts on no more

THE CUBAN CONGRESS.

Anybody who has doubted the capacity of the
Cubans for democratic-republican self-govern-
nent must now admit his error The Cuban
congress began to sit May 20, 1902. 1t ad-

was in session for an hour every other day. The
House had a brief session, and sometimes a
quorum, every day. In their closing days both
Senate and House often worked two, and even
five, hours day. Considering the climate a
rare parliamentary industry displayed, and
lnuch important legislation postponed till
the next session. This teaches US that Con-

they are unequalled This skill mas been as
