Il Mortified Wife.

The Rev, John Mathews, who was a
pioneer Methodist preacher of Ala
bama. has been remembered for his
strict views and many peculiarities. ac-
cordiRg to Lippincott's. His wife. who
was more liberal in her ideas, was fond
of dress and once sold bureau and
with the money bought new hat. The
following Sunday Brother Mathews
being disturbed at the beginning of his
discourse by several of the congrega-
ton turning to see the late arrivals,
said: Brethren and sisters, don't
bother to look around any more; III
tell you who comes in" This he did,
calling each one by name, much to the
modification of the tardy members.
His wife was among the last, and
when she walked down the aisle he
said: MAKE way there for Sister
Mathews. She is coming with bureau
on her head"

The Kind of Ear That Is Rare.

The ear that Darwin illustrates in his
Descent of Man'~as being allied to
the pointed type belonging to our SIM
ian relatives is not as uncommon rs
many may imagine. It is my observa-
ton that this popularity of the fold
in question is oftener to be observed
in women, and in many of these cases
the persistence of the wisdom teeth
is also a characteristic. l have in
mind two cases of this sort, one of IL
man, the other of a woman, both resi-
dents of one of our leading cities and
among their social and intellectual
forces.
The latter is a remarkable reversion
to an earlier type in ear, in teeth, in
length of arm, in painless childbirth,
in fiexibility of hand joints and in
other marked characteristics. 1t ap-
pears to me that the ear, like the YER
inform appendix, the suspension OF
the viscera, the position of the orifice
Of the bladder and the unprotected
condition of certain main arteries, is
vet In transitional state and not fully
adapted to the newer human conditions
imposed by the erect position and the
Rrtifcialities Of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

PhiladeIphia's First Book.

The first book of any kind published
in PHILADELPHIA was Atkins Almanack
for the year 1856. 1t was an unpaged
pamphlet of ten leaves, only two copies
istence. The first copy of the Al
manack printed was sent to Colonel
Markham, PENIS deputy, who report
ed to the council that the book had
enormously declared Pennsylvania to
have been founded by Lord Penn"
The council disapproved such high
sounding title and directed the author
and printer Civilian Bradford to
forthwith and effectually blot out ye
words Lord Penn" This had the eff
feet of recalling the whole edition and
the abolition of the obnoxious words.

hANGMAn,s PAY.
The Way nm Oriental Executiener
Helps to FIJI Hfs Purse.

e -
Helps to FIJI His Purse.
In the east hangman's trade ia very
profitable. AS soon as a person is
: condemned to be hanged notice is sent
TO the executioner, who has the privi-
lege of erecting the scaffold wherever
ne pleases, and at sunrise the next
morning he begins his work. Accom-
panied by his assistants, who guard
the condemned man and carry material
for the scaffold. he goes to some promi-
nent place in front OF a large swelling
and there proceeds to erect the seaffold.
A few minutes later the owner of the
large dwelling rushes out and irnpiores
him to go somewhere else. ss.s
Il don't want to have a man hanged
In front of my house, ne explains. =
All right" says the hangman. "I'm
willing to go elsewhere provided you
pay me for my trouble in coming here
and for the time which have spent
at the job" .-.
Though the sum which he names is
pretty large, the owner of the largo
dwelling pays it without a word.
whereupon the hangman goes to an
other large dwelling, where a similar
scene is enacted. ..
In this way several hours are spent
by the executioner in extorting money
from all the magnates in the neighbor-
hood. When his purse is at last well
filled he erects the scaffold in some
dark wood, and soon the unfortunate
man. who has been tramninr after hiTr,
all day, is at rest.-New York Herald

CATTLE AT THE FAIR.
MinneSOta'S Fair the Only One
Where National Exhibit
tons are Held.

Livestock exhibition of National
Importance have come to be regular
part of the Minnesota Safe Fair. For
three wears there have been successful
shows of this class. II this year s
show did no more than merely dupli-
cate that of last no more would need
be said of it to induce multitudes to go
and see it. But everything indicates
that the forthcoming show will excel
all predecessors. The N, t onal Short
horn and Hereford Associations will
again make the Minnesota fair the
only state fair for the exhibition of
the choicest animals of these breeds
under the direct auspices of the asso-
Citations. And it is possible tina other
breeds will be represented in a SINH
larly conspicuous manner. At all
events, it is known that all breeds will
be represented by many and most ex-
cellent herds and individuals. Public
sales of cattle will be held, as last
year, giving prospective buyers a
splendid opportunity to combine bust
ness with pleasure; profitable business
with wholesome, instructive pleasure.
This fair has now become too promil :
ent, too much of national affair, to
make The showing of ordinary speci-
mens of cattle, or Offering them for
sale, desirable or profitable to their
owners, hence a very high class exhi-
bit may be expected.
The FAIR opens t! is year on Mon
day, August 3lst and closes Sept, 9th.

Unfortunate If True.

The HERALD sincerity hopes that the
following New York Dispatch is not
true so far as it effects the fortune of
Charles A. Towne: "Towne, when he
went out of politics, went to New York
and got interested in a Texas oil COM
pany. He did well. In little while
he had 2 series of wells spouting oil at
a terrific rate. The Standard agents,
as the story runs, learned that some
of the greatest producers among the
Towne wells were about to give out.
The Standard has its own ways OF
knowing things about other peoples
oil business before the other people
find them out. Anyhow, being con-
WINGED on this point, the Standard
contracted to take certain number OF
millions of barrels of oil at Is cents
the barrel from Towne. twas a fancy
price and meant wealth for Tovne's
company. But the Standard attached
penalty clause, penalizing the Towne
company a fixed amount per barrel
for all of the contracted amount it fail
ed to deliver. The contract was just
comfortably in operation when the big
Towne wells began spouting salt wat

out and there is no chance of filing

Throwing the slipper at a wedding

Throwing the SLIPPER at q wedding.
The throwing of the slipper after the
bride comes apparently from barbarous
times, when the relations of man and
wife were really very much akin to
those Of master and slave, for it seems
that the shoe was an emblem Of, author
lty, and at an AngFo-Saxon marriage a
shoe was given by the brides father to
her husband in token Of transference
Of power over her, the groom usually
indicating his appreciation Of that fact
by tapping his new wife lightly on the
head with it.

A Saint Cloud man who was at Cold

there one day last week. Barney
Schmidt is retired farmer living in
the village. He has an aged wife but
no children and he kept quite consid-
cradle sum of money in his house. In
a box in which he filed away his 1mpor-
tant papers, he had roll OF $40.
Thursday night Schmidt had occasion
to visit his strong box and he was dis
mayed to find that his money had been
aiken. He had last seen the money q
week or more prior to this time and
therefore cannot locate the exact time
of the theft of the money. 1t is sup
posed that somebody with knowledge
of his habits entered the house during
the absence of Schmidt and his wife
and abstracted the roll from its coy
corner in the box. The authorities at
Cold Spring are looking for the money
and the man but SO far without result.
