Their Hatred Of England.

Nrdinand de Lesseps used to tell
how a Frenchman came to his aid when
he was struggling against Palmerston's
opposition to the Suez canal. The man.
who was a total stranger, walked into
his office IN day and drew out of his
pocket a wallet stuffed with bank notes.
Monsieur" said he, II beg the privi.
lege Of being allowed to subscribe to
ward the railway of the island Of Swe-
Gen." But, monsieur said Lesseps,
ut IL not "a railroad; it's a canal. It's
not an island. but an isthmus. 1t is
not In Sweden, but at Suez." II don't
care what II Ia or where it is" said the
capitalist, 80 long as II worries Eng
land. Put me down, l say"
But Lesseps had little reason to make
fun Of this episode II the picture his
W son draws of him be true. Becom-
Ing incensed at some attack made on
him in the British parliament and be-
Ing inadequately provided with mean
to express his rage, his mind suddenly
reverted to his linen collar. which was
of English make. He tore ii from his
neck, dashed 1t upon Me floor and
danced on II, all for hatred of the is
land it came from.

Routed bx Punneta.

Toward the close of the reign of
Elizabeth, when the Spaniards were
frequently lowering about the south
west coast of England, a party from
their ships landed In the neighborhood
Of where Falmouth stands today, with
the intention of burning the borough of
Penryn. 1t CHANGED, however, that that
same evening some strollers had set
up in Penryn market place a repre-
sentation by puppets Of certain Incl
dents in the life Of Samson, including
his victory over the Philistines.
At the point Of Samson's onset upon
these with the jawbone Of the ass the
strollers beat drums and sounded trum-
pets indicative Of an alarm, and the
Spaniards, who were at that moment
about to rush the town, believing il to
be full Of soldiers, bolted for their
boats.
This probably occurred in 1895, when
there was a Spanish squadron on the
coast, which landed troops and burned
PenZance.

sport ON the Knfue river.

A trader in ivory and rubber writes
as follows Of sport on the Kafue river,
In Africa: Every morning at daybreak
we got up and scanned the plains with
our glasses for game. Often our boys
called us first to say that a herd of wa
ter buck or hartbeest was grazing In
sight, especially If the camp was out
of meat. The river was full of fish
barbel, Dream, pike and tiger fish. The
Dream were by far the best eating, but
the tiger fish and big barbei gave the
best sport. Spoon bait. with strong
pike tackle and a stiff bamboo rod,
was all that was required, and, trolling
behind a dugout padded by natives,
we could soon make a bag. The tiger
fish fight gamely and, breaking water
repeatedly, very often succeed in shak-
ing the hook from their mouths. Bar
bel run up to eighty pounds weight.
and a heavy one can tow a canoe along
the surface at some speed"

Mrs. Dunton
Female. First. Male. second.

One spring l observed with much in
terest a phoebe bird building her nest
not far from my cabin In the woods.
The male looked on approvingly, but
did not help. He perched most Of the
time on a mullen stalk near the little
spring run where phoebe came for
mud.
In the early morning hours she made
her trips at intervals of a minute or
two. The male fiirted his tail and
called encoura gingly, and when she
started up the hill with her load he
would accompany her part way, as It
were to help her over the steepest part,
then return to his perch and watch and
call for her return. Fol an hour or
more l witnessed this little play in bird
life, In which the females part was SO
primary and the males so secondary.
There is something In such things
that seems to lend support to Professor
Lester F. Wards contention, as set
forth in his Pure Sociology" that In the
natural evolution Of the two sexes the
female was first and the male second;
that he was, In fact, made from her rib,

NEAT STRIKE RENEWED.
Employees Claim Packers Violated the
Agreement.

Chicago. July 22.-The clearinghouse
strike has been ordered renewed in
Chicago and all other cities. Viola
ton of agreement by the clearinghouse
proprietors is assigned as the reason.
During the morning 1900 cattle
/, butchers reported at the stock yards
here for work. Only half of them
were given places. Thereupon all re-
fused to work. They reported in a
body at their union headquarters. The
general order for a renewal of the
strike was soon forthcoming.
While the immediate provocation
for the renewal of the strike was APP
parently the failure of the packers to
take back a larger portion of the strik-
ers who reported for work, the real
cause of the rupture was inferred to
be a circular issued by the packers.
The circular ~purported to explain to
the public the agreement entered into
with the labor leaders. Seemingly the
circular could be taken as implying
the agreement did not bind the pack
ers to re-employ all of the men who
walked out. The construction the la
Dor leaders had placed upon the agree
ment was that all should be re-em-
ployed within ~forty-five days.
