DANIEL IN THE WRONG DEN.

DANIEL IN THE WRONG DtSN.
 Long after the laughing hyenas at the zoo had goggled themselves to sleep Saturday night, and the gray monkey had given over cursing the little brown monkeys who were taking liberties with his tail, wayfarer alighted from( a freight train on the Pennsyl- vania Railroad, dug the cinders from his eyes, and got his bearing. A few heaves and kick or two put him over the fence surrounding the zoo. This was the end of the first act. Not quite fifteen minutes later Keepers Lover, Bowers and McCrossen heard rack ct in the bear pit. It consisted of deep base growis and shrills for help. Rum ming out tie keepers deserted in the dim light man clinging to the top of the pole in the pit. He was calling for help.
 when the keepers drew nearer the man balanced himself oH the very tip top Of the pole, while the bears Wrang- led at the bottom evidently debating a question of precedence in an end eavor to decide which should have the pleas ure of getting to the top of the pole and forming the acquaintance of the agitated gentleman there.
 Ropes were brought and the man was hauled out.
 I'm a stranger here, and thought was getting into a. entlennan.s grounds. explained the Wayfarer, T was looking for place to sleep. and slid down among those dummedsl dslbears. They started for me, and I clum the pole.
 Whats you name, demanded Lover.
 Stevens" said the man. T rode to town on a freight from Cleveland, < Whats your first name" asked Lover. Daniel, replied the man.
 You got into the wrong place, said Lover. The Ions den is the first building to the Tight. Cit.
 You bet earnestly responded MT. Daniel Stevens as he fled towards the entrance of the zoo and out into the night.
 The bears took turns yesterday climbing to the pole, snif1ng 1t and licking their chops. Philadelphia Correspondence Cleveland Leader.

DISHES THAT WON'T BREAK.

DlGE1Eo fIf1A1k WOIN II RftflkAEAss5
 If seedless oranges and boneless shad have been such q valuable addition to the menu of civilized households, what shall be said of unbreakable tableware as a boon to housewives, a product said to have been invented by a manufacturing concern at Liege, Bell giumgium. Our consul at Liege. Mir McNally, describes this new and rel markable article in a recent communi- cation to our Department of Commerce. He says that it resembles fine trans parent china. The resisting power of this ware is due to a special hardening process and to the quality and nature of the crystal used. It not only suc- cessfully resists the usual wear and tear, but is almost proof against breakage A hardened crystal dish can be substituted for a hammer in driv- ing nails into wood, while the same can be put into boiling water at a high de- gree, then plunged into ice water re- peatedly, without the least noticeable damage to the dish or plate. It Is known that a set of this dishware has been in use in a certain family for ten years, and, with the exception of a few unusual local accidents, the set present the same fresh appearance as when it came from the factory. Mir. McNally says that he has seen plates, of the usual form of the hardened warehurled to the stone floor of a warehouse and go bounding along the whole length of the building without suffering the least damage.--Leslie's Weekly.

WHEN THE MILLER WAS KING
Old Days When He Played an Impor- ta I,f po,f i,, r ten

Old Days When He Played an Inpor-
 tant Part in Life
 An old-time resident of this city says he remembers when freshet. away back in the last century sos, washed out every mill dam in this and adtoin- ing counties, and for several weeks people had to send all the way to Con- nersyille to get their grain ground. The day of water mills in this part of the country is part, and thereh are very few left in the state that still operate. There are many old, abandoned mills, and they constitute pretty feature of a country landscape, situated as they often are, on the bank of some little stream whose water still falls over the antiquated dam, as willing as ever to be utilized, but discarded for modern methods. The old mill, which had not been used for many years, has a dilap- idated look and its crumbling founda- tions and weatherworn sides are mute reminders of the time when it played an important part in the activities of the period. A generation or two ago farmers within radius of many miles around used to depend on it for their grinding, and made long trips on horseback or in OK carts carrying grain to the mill and flour or corn-meal home again.
 The incident of the freshet recalled by the old resident illustrates the im- portant part played by mills in early times. People of the present genera tion,' said the old resident, "when flour and corn meal are found in every gro- eery, or even sent as a present in nice little sample packages, cannot realize what a luxury they were when grist mills were few and grinding was an uncertain business. In early times some families had what we called a grater, a sort of homemade arrange ment for grating green corn Others used hominy block for crushing hard corn and wheat, though there wasn't much wheat raised in those days com pared with corn. Mills were scarce, and sometimes we had to go or send a long distance to get a little grinding done" i s

shohaohil from the MIkado.n

shohachii from the Mikado. Chiubei was a true blooded NTIippon- ese, schooled to affect and indeed to feel happiness when he received the news of a death on the battlefield. He said to the station masters son, Mata- zo:
 Matazo San, I am glad, for I had a son who died for this country in hon. orr"
 Chiubei was smiling, but Matazo knew that the old man was crying in his heart, and said to him;
 "I suppose you are going. home sow, instead of to the station to cheer the departing soldiers.
 No! There is no one in my house. I lost my wife long ago, and now my only child Chlutaro has gone; I am left all alone in this Worldl But oh, am so happy to think that my inconsidera- ble son was able to die like brave samurali There is no better satisfac- tion to me than this! Will you have cup of the sake with me to celebrate my insignificant son's great honor?"
 Thank you, but the train will be at the station very soon, and shall have no time to go with you to take the sake. T
 s.Well, that's sol Let us hurry to the station!' said Chiubei, and the two men hastened toward 1t. sAt the station a thousand young and told, all carrying the branches of the blooming cherry blossoms under their arms, were waiting for the train bear ha When Chiubei approached the station and the crowd saw the old hero, whom they regarded as the pride of the town, I they shouted in approval. Here comes Chiubei! Old hero Chi ubei, banzail Our brave Chinbei!' The mayor of the town stood upon the platform and addressed the crowd, who clapped for him heartily: Honorable friends the train will not stop more than half a aminute. When you see the train coming, please hon. orably shout banzais. and appoint our Ghibuei San the cheering leaderl..
 The mayor descended from the plat form, and Chiubei ascended amid wild clippings and yellings while the whis- tie of an engine was heard in the dis tance.
 @The trainl' exclaimed the station
 master, swinging his cap. The cheering Chiubei swung his straw hat up and down as the thun- derous outbursts from the crowds went on:
 'Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!" The train stopped. and the cherry blossoms were showered into the win dows, while the soldiers returned the salutations, raising their hands about their ears When the train passed away and the echoes of the cheering died, old Chiubel turned and walked urlsteadily away from the station. Matazo, looking for him a few minutes later, perceived the old man sitting under little awning near at hand His great hat was across his knees, and his hands were folded patiently over its brim. When the younger man approached Chiubei did not look up or speak. On his face shone the pale light of everlasting peace. Hydesabuto Ohashi in the New York Evening Post. |

WAYS OF BEEF TRUST.
House Is Told How Law Is Vio-
lated and Evaded.

Washington March 5.-While the
house had under consideration the In
dian appropriation bill, the reading of
which for the purpose of amendment
was pending on adjournment. Mr..
Martin, a Republican member from
South Dakota, addressed the house on
his resolution directing the secretary
of commerce and labor to investigate
the causes of the differences which ex-
list between the cost of live and dressed
beef.
Mr. Martin said that the western
Stockmen had been forced to the con-
clusion that great markets of the coun-
try were manipulating against them.
The recent meeting of the Stock Rails
ers' association had recognized that
fact by resolutions favoring the estab-
lishment of independent packing
houses.
Mr.. Martin turned his attention to the
proceedings of the attorney general in
1902 against the beef trust which was
now on appeal before the supreme court.
But continued Mr.. Martin, so far
as the rights of the producer and con-
sumner are concerned they are even
worse. than before this injunction was
placed on this So-called trust I think
| there is every indication that after the
! injunction they changed their methods
and instead of agreeing and combining
| in advance their representatives go into
| the market every day and when one
| buys lot of beef the others refrain
from bidding against him and after
ward divide up the purchase among
| themselves"
| This method, Mr.. Martin declared, was
| a. clear violation of the terms of the
| Sherman antitrust law, which he be-
lieved was adequate to remedy the evil
| He paid his compliments to Senator
| Foraker for introducing bill in the
| senate to repeal the forfeiture clause of
| the Sherman law, and gained Demo-
| cratic applause by declaring that in
| stead of removing that clause it should
be enforced more vigorously.
| Mr.. Martin related the experience OF
stockmen in their efforts to dispose of
their stock on the Chicago market. One

not accept his bid, but his cars were all

usual news yesterday about fresh R. r.
borrowing. The Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy is to take five million dollars from
the Chicago market. Bond dealers espe-
cially dislike these r. R. borrowings ana
they have a sentimental effect, more or
less dampening to stock specula-
ton. The Pennsylvania r. R. continues
to lay out plans to use UP its borrowings
and extra capital
Nevertheless, the tone of the market is
remarkably strong. There was little re-

though it did not last. There Is better
inquiry for inactive investments. There
