ROMANCE OF THE ARCTIC.
Strange Mistake of am Eskimo Lover
 Who Sought to Garry On His Sweetheart.

Cupid plays his pranks under the mid- night sun of the arctic regions just as he does under the burning orb that scorches equatorial plains. While in the frozen arctic region in search of the north pole the duke of AbF-uzzi was told this tale of the adventures of young Eskimo who had secretly courted the daughter of an enemy. The huts of the lovers were not far removed, but one night the terrific cold ripped a great crevasse in the ice and the young mans house was left isolated. A gorge 100 feet deep and 20 feet wide separated it from the igloo,, or hut, containing his sweetheart, but there was a narrow bridge of ice left across the creyasse, and this, the young man found, would bear his weight Eskimos sleep in bags !
 The lover decided that he would that night cross the ice bridge, steal the maiden he loved, bear her to his hutand then break down the bridge, so that he and she together might enjoy their honeymoon unmolested. He planned very successfully He crept in the dead of night into his enemy's hut; he snatched up the maiden in her sack without awaking anyone; he bore her over the ice bridge safely and then he opened the sack to embrace his bride. But, beholding it's contents he gave a loud cry. It was not the maiden, but her father, that he had stolen. tt x

Typical Fossils.

In accordance with 8 resolution passed at the international geological congress at Paris in 1900 to establish paleontological publication to bring together illustrations and descriptions Of type fossils, an international commit tee was appointed to prepare pro gramme of the publication which is to be known as Palaeontologica Univer- sails The commission will publish each type fossil on separate plate. It has been arranged to reproduce the original figure of the type fossil, to give 8, phototypographic figure of the type itself, the original descriptions without alterations or abbreviations and addi- tional observations by the authors. The two specimen plates which have reached us are excellent, and the series, when complete, should be of great serv- ice in making known rare and frequent ly unknown descriptions and figures of type fossils The assistance of numer- ous palaeontologists has been secured, and they. will prepare the plates of the type fossils of the greatest interest in the collections in their care.

THE PALMA TROPHY.
Recently Taken from England by f American Rifemen.
An International Shooting Prize That Has Been Won by This Country, Canada and EngIand-Pre.
 sented by America.

The Palma trophy, donated by the rifiemen of the United States to the Tiflemen of the world, comes back to the United States by the prowess of our soldier sharpshooters. The crack shots of our army and national guard recently met the cracks of England, South Africa, Canada and Australia at the rife range of the English army at Bisley, and have returned to this coun- try the victors in one of the hardest fought contests of skill at rifle shoot ing ever witnessed
 While the Palma trophy has figured in several of these international. rifle contests but little is known of it. by the. public, the contest being consid- cred an army affair in which the civ ilian is but little interested.
 :. The National Rifle Association of America was organized in 1873 by members of the army and the national guard. The following year challenge was issued to teams from the military service of other countries, and the challenge was accepted. by team from Ireland. Both teams did some won derful shooting, and it was not until the last, shot was fired that the win ner was known. That last shot was a. bulls eye, and had it been miss Ire- land would have won, as it was the final score stood 934 points for Amer ica, and 931 for Ireland
 Tn 1876 the rifiemen of the army and national guard in this country con- ceived the idea of an international Shn0fHnp oSS o 5fon4 41rro Nf the centennial celebration of that year.

SHIRT WAIST SUGGESTIONS.
Important Points to Be Considered !. by the Intending Purchases
 -" of the Garment.

"A woman should buy her shirt waists, standing up, and before full length mirror" declared the head of a shirt waist department, according to the Brooklyn Eagle.
 And. she should try. them on be- fore buying.
 "I know it would make us great deal of trouble" continued she, ''H all our customers were to try on their shirt waists. But I really do. believe that in the long run it would be sav- ing of time, of patience and of money all around. t
 ''The woman who tries on her shirt waists in the store never brings them back to be exchanged; and 1t is very rarely that shirt waist that is tried sou in the. store fails to give perfect satisfaction. We have made many per- nanent customers simply by insisting that the waist be tried on before it is taken home.
 ttOf course, the exception is in the case of the woman of perfect figure, who runs true of a measure. And there are a great many of this de-. scription. .- ,' ~~ But the most important reason is that women never know. how they will look in a garment until they put it on. And not only must they put it on, but they must stand in front of a full-length glass and look at them selves, waist, skirt and all. waist that looks all right on the counter, or on the, figure, or when5 viewed with a hand glass, will look entirely differ. ent when the woman sees herself full length. -:@ @ 5.a@,1 ,.-+ss Take. the new waists" said she. which are trimmed with little ap- pliqued triangles of silk. The waists which are of very delicate fabric are made on the French style, opening down tho back. The fronts, and the baggy part of the sleeves. are trimmed with the silk triangles and these are put in place with very smal stitches. The effect of the trimming is to- make a figured waist.
 Just about one woman in a dozen looks well in these new waists and the others look dowdy. To help them out they have now a way of stripping the waists with narrow bands of ribbon, or of pin tucking the waist, which gives it just the right amount of chic, so that its awful plainness does not come too hard upon the woman whose figure is not perfect"

Months ago Blackburn began to pre- pare to celebrate General Miles's retire ment by procuring confederate flags and portraits of confederate generals. These he hung about the capitol, Fri day night, and when legislators arrived Saturday morning the building recalled the sixties.
 Blackburn met the legislators and ex- plained the reason for the decorations, and asked for three cheers for the re- tirement of the man who manacled Davis,' but the legislators refused to cheer-Atlanta. Ga, Dispatch to the New York Times.

Poppies 2.eoo Years old.

The extraordinary resuscitating pow CT of light has received a very curious illustration in the silver mines at Lau- rum. The mines had been abandoned more than 2,ooO years ago as unworka- ble, and consisted for the most part of the "slag" produced by the working of the miners. An enterprising English man discovered that the mines con- tained plenty of silver, which could easily be removed by the superior mod ern' appliances He discovered, how ever, something far more valuable than the silver, viz, some poppies of a spe- cies which had disappeared for 20 cen turies, the seed of which had lain dor mant beneath the slag for 2,G00 years. When the slag was removed to the fur- mace, the next visit to the mine found the entire space covered with most gorgeous show of poppies. After their 20 centuries rest they had bloomed as vigorously as ever, without the aid of single drop of water or any restorative other than the rays of the sunn-P Phila- delphia Ledger;

NOT AN AVAILABLE MAN.

ln various quarters there is talk of making General Nelson A. Miles the democratic candidate for president of the United States next year. The sug- gestion comes in most instances from persons who are not democrats.
 A Boston correspondent of the Springfield Republican says: 'It is predicted that the nomination of Miles for the presidency by the democrats would command the enthusiasm of all who appreciate his services in the civil war particularly the Grand Army General Miles is undoubtedly popular with the Grand Army veterans, and many of them would gladly vote for him as MT Rooseyelt's successor-if his name were on the republican national ticket.
 There are two reasons why General Miles cannot possibly be a. or the, dem ocratic candidate for the presidency next year, or in any other year. One reason. and a very strong one, is that he is a republican and has always been SO. Being a republican, he has not pre- tended or wished to be anything else. Over thirty years have elapsed since the democratic party took republican as it's candidate for the presidency and the lesson then learned is still unfor- gotten by the majority of democrats.
 But there is a reason why General Miles would not be nominated for the presidency even if he were to renounce his republican principles and declare himself a democrat of deep and fixed convictions That reason is to be found in the south,- where it is in1possi- ble that General Miles will ever be supported for any office, for the reason that, at the close of the civil war; he took upon himself the responsibility of tputting iron manacles on the legs of Jefferson Davis. then prisoner of war at Fortress Monroe.
 Whether that was an error or not, it is regarded by the southern people as an indignity to their section. Hence they do not show any enthusiasm when General NTiles's name is mentioned. Nor do they symrathfze with him when he receives unfenling treatment from a republican administration at Washing ton.
 General Miles is not available as a candidate for the presidency. We say this while holding a very high opinion of tbis eminent officer. and heliaving 2 that he has heen most nnfairlv dealt with bv the more astnte politicians who have been his masters during the Daef six xears.-H Hartford Times.

The Only Way.

A. .kind-hearted woman who was walking the other day through one of the streets in the vicinity of Fair mount park saw little boy sitting on the curbstone, crying bitterly
 Her heart was at once touched and, going up to the little fellow, she asked him the cause of his grief. Looking up through his tears, he explained that his mother had sent him with some pen nies to a nearby grocery store and that he had lost the money.
 Well said the woman, as she put her hand on the boys head, shedding tears will not bring back your money. What makes you cry that way?"
 "'Cause," answered the boy, as he looked at the woman, perplexedly, T didn't know how to cry any other way."-Philadeiphi Ledger
