Supposed Bust of Nero.

A valuable bust believed to be that
OF the. Emperor Nero, says the Paris
Messenger. has just been turned up by
a peasant digging in the folds at
Ravanusa, near Girgerti. The waole
OF this, countryslue, where first the
Greek town of la stood, and then the
Carthagianians came and lastly Virgil
walled away many pleasant studious
days is rich in relics Pottery. medals,
money canoes and arms are often
turned up by spade and plow: but the
peasants not being learned folks, only
objects of the most obvious value have
been preserved
However, the recently discovered
bust was rather special find, and
was snapped up by one of the curators
of the Girgenti museum. 1t is of Par
ian marble, rather than life size, and
in excellent preservation. One Of the
chief reasons for supposing it to be
a bust of Nero-setting aside the fact
that its artistic qualities mark it un-
coubtedly as being of some very ex-
alted Romans that Nero's famous
favorite, the freedman Tigellinus, was
born and possessed magnificent villas
in this neighborhood.

TOLD IN ALL LANGUAGES
Familiar Story Is Known All Over the
World,

The story of the man with seven
sons who gave to each OF them in
turn bunch of seven sticks with in
structions to break them, and each
son falling to break them as whole.
succeeded in breaking each stick in
dfyfdually. is one Of the Oldest stories
in the world, and its lesson, United
we are strong divided we are weak"
is as old as the story. An illustration
of the general acceptance OF the story
was given at the public evening school
in the Morgan street chapel a few
evenings since.
Miss Clark. the teacher, told the
story in English TO the class of some
fifty foreigners who are learning to
speak and to read the English Ian
guage, when several of the pupils said
they We're familiar with it in their
own tongue and the lands from which
they came. Thereupon the story was
told by one pupil who had been in
this country from Palestine but a few
weeks. in pure Hebrew; another
young man told it in Yiddish, which
is the Hebrew language as it is spok-
en- by most of the people of that race
from Eastern Europe. A young wom-
an told it in Roumanian. another
young woman told it in Polish, and
young man told it in Russian. 1t was
only a day Or two before Christmas,
and many Of the members of the class
were working in the stores during the
shopping season. or it might have
been told in half a dozen more dia-
lects, the evening schools having at
least twenty different nationalities
and languages represented in their
various classes.-Hartford Courant

CHICAGO HAS NEW GAME.
1t Is Called Typhoon Poker and Is
Great for Plunqers

They're playing new game of
poker in Chicago said a travelling
man. ITS called typhoon poker, and
it certainly is a hun.c1or
The game is a simple ore to play
and | understand that it has already
broken up few families ~, more
than five pe-sC--,; can play it, at. it IS
a good deal like stud poke.
'Supposing that there a-e FIVE per-
sons playing. the dealer Ids out
four cards face down. to eaca player
The fifth card is face up, ami then
betting begins, the man who has the
highest face card making the first bet
on what he considers the value OF his
entire five cards. There is a limit. of
course, but it needn't be high to make
the game lively.
When the betting is over on the
hrst five cards each man is dealt an
other card, face up. The betting be-
gins again and keeps up until each
man is satisfied that he has had
enough
Once more the same operation is
gone through, and by that time. each
man having eight cards from which to
make the best poker hand of five
cards, there are some pretty stiff
hands out. The betting increases in
accordance With the value of the
hands. and each man is ready to bet
his pile.
The next card, the ninth and last.
is dealt face down That means that
four of the cards held by each player
are exposed to those around the board
and the rest are concealed except to
the player.
Now, any one who has played
poker knows the sort of combination
t. at can be made out of nine cards.
And, knowing that, it isn't hard to
figure out the kind of plunging that
is done in typhoon poker"

reformation has not made the dry
docks altogether useless, for every
time one commodore buys a drink
every other member present must also

DOESN'T RAIL AT RAILROADS.
Senator Pardons Much, Remembering
What Father t.ndured

There IS senator in the General
Assembly who always declines to COM
plain at the irreeu larities of railroad
schedules, Or to sign for the future
day OF trains always on time. That
senator is R. J. Wilson. who was pres
ideEt Of the last senate. He has been
IN the senate for fourteen years, twelve
of them consecutively.
The reason that Mr.. Wilson never
complains Of late trains is that his
father. the Hon. A. NJ. Wilson. who is
still living, was member of the Ar
kansas Senate before the day OF rail-
reads, and his stories of the hardships
OF travel in the olden time have i'm
pued his son with the more practical
icea that it is better to have a bad
train than no train at all.
Mr.. Wilson, Sr., was a member Of
g,4e Senate from Washington county
in 1S4S, twelve years after Arkansas
was given statehood There were no
means of travel then Except in a few
stage lines between principal points,
but horseback. Washington county is
5cut 200 miles from Little Rock, lying
about midway between Fort Smith and
the Missouri line, and bordering on
the Territory.
When Mr.. Wilson, the elder, came
to Little Rock to aid in framing some
OF the early laws of the state. he rode
horseback the entire distance, the
trip requiring six days. He swan riv-
ers where there was no ferry. and
often picked his way through almost
impossible mountain ranges Now.
when the present senator thinks about
saving something unpleasant of the
railroads he thinks twice-the second
time Of his fathers experience in the
tCrties.-Little Rock tArk.) Gazette.
