English Call This Snort.

Mr.. H BRACE Hutchinson, who is as
good hand at cricket stories as at
golf, has told Of many a big hit and
long score. He has recounted how a
ball became wedged up the spout Of a
pump, and the batsman ran q before
it could be recovered, and many an
other incident of a similarly tall char
acter. But his greatest tale of all re-
lates to match played at Boulogne
in field at the top of a cliff over
looking the sea. One of the batsmen
made specially fine hit to square-leg.
which not only passed the fielders,
but went so far as finally to reach the
edge of the cliff, over which it trickled
down to the beach 200 feet below.
One Of the fielders, more courageous
than the rest, scaled the perilous face
Of the cliff and fielded the ball. But.
alas! Notwithstanding all Of his ef-
forts, he could not manage to throw
the ball up to his shouting comrades
above, nor could he find sufficient
footing to enable him to climb the
cliff again. His only course was to
take cab and go round by the town,
during which time the batsman
notched no fewer than 157 runs

PICTURES FROM LIFE.
Writer'S OF the Present Day Deal More
with Fact and Less with
Fancy.

The number of capable writer's who
are telling the various truths of life
in the form Of fiction is much greater
than contemporary pessimists realize,
states the Detroit Free Press. There is,
indeed, no corner Of human experience
which cannot produce it's able, enter
tanning representative. Let US take
some traditional forms of the novel;
the sea story, say. Capt. Marryat was
indeed master, and vet w. Clarke Rus
sell and Conrad and Jacobs! In the
work of all Of these men one has to &C.
knowledge that romantic fidelity to the
facts rather than the fancies of the sea
which I have spoken of as the note of
the modern romantic realism. In the
case Of Conrad we have also a writer of
the first literary importance-a novelist
Of action. and serious vivid detail, who
does not scorn to write good English,
but who more than that, Pole as he is
and there is an additional marvel
writes English OF quality so English
that incredible as it may sound, his
words are no less exciting than his ad-
ventures. 1t may almost be said that the
fact Of his being q foreigner" using our
English tongue has possessed him with
a regard for classical English which
fostered in him the journalistic impress
sion Of such a vociferous English writer
as, say, Mr.. Kipling-Mr. Ktpling, who is
patriotic in everything but his language.

Burglar Bees.

To the person who knows nothing
about bees they represent the supreme
type of industry. But even the bee COM
munities are disturbed by those of their
own kind who break through and steal,
Robber bees are always a source OF
anxiety to beekeepers, and at this time
of the year the marauders seem partic-
ularly active. Having gathered no
honey, or at any rate an insufficient sup
ply for themselves, they will descend
upon a hive, kill its industrious occu-
pants and carry off the golden treasure
in an astonishingly short space of time.
We know OF a recent instance in which
the attack was developed and the home
bees killed in a couple of hours. Some
times hive will attack neighboring hive.
In such cases the old straw skip" was
better than the modern arrangement.
for knife thrust through the top would
break the comb and set the honey free,
at which the thieves would instantly
return to seal up their own store. It is
not primarily in their industry that bees
are human.-London Chronicle.

Paraguay Tea.

There comes from Paraguay to the
Journal Of Tropical Medicine news of
an apparently harmless beverage which
is the sole stay and stimulant of the
working classes in Paraguay and the
Argentine Republic 1t is ?tten known
as Paraguay tea or mate, and an ct
tempt made to introduce it into this
country some years ago failed because
AS we may guess-there were more
potent competitors in. the field. It is
usually drunk as hot infusion, through
a metal tube, but may be taken like tea,
with milk and sugar. Workmen take 1t
with them wherever they go and sip It
occasionally. Wood cutters will work
on it for five or six hours before break

at night, it makes nursing, study or what
doctors call might york" real pleasure,

to have no evil consequences. =, This

alcohol to women, or even, in at least
one familiar case, cocaine.-London

SAVAGES IN HOTELS.
Patrons Disregard Decency
AID Destroy Property.

In all the big hotels of New York there
are rooms that the guests never see or
hear Of Some Of them are in the base
ment and some are on the roof, accord
ing to the convenience of the manage
ment. They belong to the carpenters,
engineers, electricians and other work.
men who are kept busy every day all
the year round, says the Times. In
every hotel of pretensions large force
Is required to mend furniture, do odds
and ends Of painting, put on door locks
repair broken water pipes, and do any
number Of other things that are indis-
pensable II the house is to appear in
good order all the time.
1T Is my experience" says the man
ager OF a hotel in Broadway, that men
and women who will put up with no
end OF Inconvenience and disorder at
home or in cheap boarding house kick
nightly If they do-not find everything
spick and span at hotel A man who
Will sit night after night in a frayed
chair in his parlor at Four Corners will
make an awful fuss If he finds neglect
ed piece OF furniture in hotel parlor
or bedroom. A women who has to light
the parlor stove every day when she is
at home and spend half her time in keep
Ing the house warm, will say she is cold
even II the steam is on at full pressure
In her room at a hotel, and she will
keep man busy two or three hours
day running around to see If there is
not something the matter with the
pipes.
1T seems to be a weakness with some
folks to take it out Of the furniture in
hotels in order to get their moneys
worth. A man who will not dare to
throw burnt match on the carpet in
his own house, and who would as soon
think Of flying as of lying on the bed
with his boots on, will co these things
and worse in hotel bedroom. 1t takes
two or three hours to put the room in
order after he has gone. Often we have
to send at least one piece of furniture to
the repair shop II one of the small
furniture dealers scattered around the
city could get as much furniture to
mend as is sent to hotel repair shops
every day he would begin to talk about
prosperity.
perhaps I am putting it strongly, but
In all seriousness, carelessness and will
tul neglect Of guests in great hotels
men and women from whom such a
thing would not be expected-puts us
to great expense. Would man spit to-
bacco on carpet or burn curtains and
BED covers with cigarettes if they were
his own property? These things are
done every day in hotel. Some men
will not scratch a match anywhere else
If they can scratch it on the wall pa
per.
Again, lot of room we should like
FOR other purposes is occupied with un-
claimed trunks and other baggage be-
longing to persons who have forgotten
to pay their hotel bills. Most hotels
keep rooms especially for this, and they
have anywhere from 100 to $50 trunks
on hand all the time They are obliged
by law to hold them three months be-
fore sending them to the auction room
Many proprietors keep them a year."

The Bishops Inquiry,

From a suburban town comes a
story of bishop of dignified pres
ence and severe expression who ar
rived there early one afternoon in
time to rest before he lectured in the
town hall. The natives regarded him
with awe and decided he was very
reverend indeed. He went into a
druggists shop in the main street and
in a tone that froze the blood of the
young proprietor asked: "Sir, do
you smoker" "Y-yes," replied the
abashed youth. I'm sorry, but
learned the habit young and haven't
been able to give it up" ''Then,"
said the divine, without any abate-
ment Of the chill solemnity Of his
voice, you may be able to tell me
where can get a good cigar."-Chi-

BATTLING WITH AN ANCHOR.
Mammoth MudhOOk Was Dfmcult t.
Handle When the Waves
Were TOssing 1t.

To hoist to the cat-head an anchor
weighing 5000 pounds, with a gale Of
wind blowing and tremendous sea
Sun tells how this work was under
taken on war-ship in Hampton Roads.
IN order to raise the anchor to the deck
OF the ship the UNDERGROUND cat-block
had to be fastened by the huge hook
which depended from it to the ring in
the balancing band on the anchor shank
so that the power Of the winch could be
utilized.
The great anchor hung so that when
the wave receded it was clear OF the
water, but each incoming crest SUBJ
merged it several feet. AS the ship
tossed on the waves there was great
danger that the enormous weight of
the anchor would send the anchor
through her thin plating. But with
seas big enough to toss the ship about
as easily as II she were but a fishing
float, and to swing that anchor back and
forth like the pendulum of toy clock,
it was no childs game to hook the cat
block.
Two men were chosen, each a fine
under the arms Of each line was made
fast, and men on deck stood ready to
haul away in case of need.
The two sailors watched their chance,
and when the ships head was we'll out
Of water. over they went. They had
hardly reached the anchor when wave
rolled in that surged four feet above
their heads. When it passed both were
clinging, almost GREATNESS, to the shank
of the anchor
But the instant they were clear Of wa
ter they jumped to their work and
strove to get the block in place. With
the ship hauling one way and the wind
blowing another there was small chance
for them to drag that hundred-pound
block in still third way. Again and
again they had it almost fastened. when
a great wave knocked it away and bur-
led them far out of sight. Still the two
men struggled at their task.
Then the inevitable happened The
great cat-block swung far out as the
SAAP PAuu6cN All WdIu, uuu6 pOlStu al
instant, as if taking deliberate aim,
and came sweeping back straight at the
head Of one Of the two men. 1t struck
him on the back of the head and
knocked him ten feet from the anchor
into the sea-
The rush Of an incoming wave swept
him away from the ship, and for a mo,
ment it seemed as if he would surely
be lost. Then was justified the wis
dom which had placed the line about
his shoulders. The men on deck drew
him in, unconscious but safe, and in
ten minutes he was declaring to the Of
ficer in charge that , could surely hook
that block the next time.
But the captain .ad formed another
plan. He determined to hat! up the
anchor as far as was possible. so that
it should have the smallest room for
play, and to make harbor Just at
nightfall she reached quiet waters, and
once more the unruly anchor was let
60 again.

NEGROES SANG AT WORK.
And Entertained French Opera Sing.
ers in the Streets Of New
Orleans.

The French opera singers were specta-
tors of a picturesque street scene night
or two ago in the vicinity of the old
French opera house, says the New Or
leans Times-Democrat. Bourbon street
was being paved with asphalt, and the
work was being FASTENED so as to have
that portion of the street near the opera
house accessible for carriages by the
time of the opening Of the French OPP
era season.
On this account an unusually large
force of workmen were engaged, and in
order to push the work to an early COM
pletion the men worked at night, huge
torches being used. In one block, be-
tween St. Louis and Toulouse streets,
more than 100 men were working.
Every one familiar with the negro
knows that, in 80 far as he is able, he
sets his work to music. 1t is fact often
marveled at that the negro, when he is
singing or chanting in sort of rhythmic
mood, works with more ardor than under
different conditions. And if an extra de-
mand is made on the negro workman he
sings or chants the louder.
The members Of the French opera, or
at least many of them, heard for the first
time the real melody Of the negro voice
that night. It was that swishful, poetic
thing caricatured in the ragtime OF the
stage, certain subtle, indefnable some
thing which no composer has ever been
able to fit to the well-measured octaves
of musical arrangements It was the
tuneful, heaving call Of the levee, the
mellow sunset cry of the cotton fields
The flaring torch, the bustling hither and
thither, the heavy fall of the implements
of toil-all those things gave exquisite
tone to the setting.

Mrs. Isabella L. Bishop holds the rec
