HIT BY AN INVISIBLE FOE.
Two Bear Cubs at the Cincinnati Zoo"
Butt Up Against Electrified
Cage Bars.

dispatch 10 the Chicago Inter

storm that made itself at home in
the cage inhabited by Damon
and Pythias, two bear cubs that

When the lightning dit the cage

The morning after tbe two little
bears were capering about inside
the cage, very hungry, and very

Damon erected himself on his two
hind legs with a smile Of welcome
and tried TO thrust his little
black nose Through the bars of the
cage The electric current

balf-dazed for a moment, and then

Pythias sought distraction by
sticking his little black nose

CITIES WE'RE ONCE FORTS.
Most Modern Towns Had Foes Men
acing from Without - Rapid
Growth of European Capitals.

Nearly all the large cites of the
world were once merely frontier
camps or forts built to shelter and
protect from their foes the few
hardy pioneers who founded them.
In all early schemes for defense
the inclOsed square was cOnsid.
cred the best. From the time
when wagons were merely parked
on the plain to the time when
buildings were constructed with
plank walls to the enemy and
their facade to the open square
this plan has been universally
adopted, and many of the great
squares or market places of fa-
nous cities still show undeniable
evidences of these precautions for
defense.
In the old city Of Brussels the
square upon which faces its won
derful city hall is approached 10y
streets so narrow that they must
surely have been constructed with
the idea of defense in mind.
Were it possible to forecast the
rapid development Of cities or to
predict which of our many cities is
to become a metropolis the prob
lem might not be such a difficult
one, but such, unfortunately, Is
not the case. Even the most vivid
imagination would scarcely have
been able to predict the enormous
increase of population and the
consequent architectural develop
ment of modern cities.
The rapid growth of American
cities is well known, but few re
alize that the older cities of Ell
rope have had a similar expert
ence. The recent increase in Der
lin has exceeded that of Chicago
and what is true of Berlin is true
of many other European centers
1t is, then, not surprising to not,
that in Hanover, Nuremberg
Leipsic, Leignitz, st. Johan Saal
and Madgeburg modern municipal
buildings of great Importance
have recently been or are now be
ing constructed.

AFRICA CAN RAISE COTTON.
Europe Is Looking t. That Continent
for an Abundant supply Of
the Textile


II is the belief of many who
have made q patient inrestiga-
ton Of the soil and climate Of
many parts of Africa chat the daek
continent will eventually be the
chief source of supply for cotton.
The manufacture of cotton goods
is the greatest Of England's indus
tries and is dependent on America
for the supply of raw materials.
East India and Egypt have been
contributing their quota, but the
proportion of the total require
ments thus originating is too insig.
nificant to control or even sway
the market For some time past
an organization known as the
British Cotton Growing assoeia-
tion has been working through
consular and government officials
in Africa to encourage the cult.
walton of cotton in their districts.
The association is now endeavor-
ing to raise $2,5OO000 III further
ance of their object.
Reports returned by their cor.
respondents, many of whom oc-
cupy important official positions.
all Indicate that the possibilities
of Africa as a cotton producing
country have been too long over
looked. The natives in many
parts of the country raise small
plots of cotton along with their
''melie. " or corn patch, but the crop
has been utilized exclusively for
their own immediate wants.
There are large sections of coun-
try in British West Africa where
cotton grows wild and experts
who have visited these sections
and sent home samples are au-
thOrity for the statement that the
product is of good color and long
staple.
Statements made by Lord
CrOmer in the SOudan, Sir Harry
Johnston in central Africa, Sir
William MacgregOr in Lagos and
Sir Frederick Lugard in northern
Nigeria all concur in the opinion |
that an enormous output could be
secured before many years by a
judiciOus distribution of seed, |
government encouragement in the
line of expert supervision of the |
plantations and expert instruc-
ton in the provision of suitable |
transportation facilities 1t is |
probable it will be easier to Sc
cure the crop than to build the
necessary railways to bring the |

OLD TIME COUNTRY LIFE.
Each Farm Was Factory Of Odds
and Ends, village Store
in Itself

1t is not yet 50 years since the
people of our country villages
lived by farming, the men making
their own sleds, shingles, AK
handles, scythes, brooms, OK
bows, bread troughs and mortars;
the women carding, spinning,
braiding, binding and dyeing, says
the Milwaukee Journal. They sat
around great fireplaces with hang
ing crane, fredogs and a spit
turned by hand or by clockwork /;
they made their own tallow cam
dies and used. even on festive oe-
casions, wooden blocks or raw po-
tatoes for candlesticks; they ate
from pewter kept bright by the
wild securing brush; they doe
tored their own diseases by hun
bred and one different Wild herbs,
all gathered near home and all PUT
up in bags for the winter or hung
in rows of dried lunches. Soap
was made at home. so was the APP
ple-butter, cheese, pearl-ash, birch
vinegar, cider. beer. basket. Each
farm was a factory of odds and
ends-a village store in itself, a
laboratory of applied mechanics.
Now all that period of sturdy indi-
vidualism is as utterly passed rs
is the government of the Phara-
obs The railroads have killed it
all. Every process on the farm
has been revolutiOnized by science
or mechanical invention; every
article can now he bought more
cheaply than il can be made at
home The very mending of
clothes now hardly marks the
good housewife-yOu are told that
it is cheaper for the elder daugh-
ter to go to work in the factory
and buy with her wages new salts
of ready-made for the boys. 1t is
all gone The old life now lives
only i'm tender memories.
Estates of 900 acres and more,
owned by non-reSidents. are rapid

THE AMERICAN WOMAN.

The American woman is delightfully."- pretty. often extremely lovely, put rarely classically beautiful. Beyond all women, perhaps. does she possess the gifts of expression and genius for pose. With her the sense of knowing what is proper to do under certain con ditions seldom fails. She knows her strong points physically and how to throw them into most striking relief.
 An American woman's taste in dress is as perfect as anything can be in this imperfect world. Of her genius for adapting herself to her environment there can be no question. Such mere accident of birth as the one which gives her a pork butcher or a patent pill maker for father is no drawback to her ultimate career.
 One secret of the American woman < charm is her individuality. She is i1- ways original and gay and merry, gen. orally amiable and more often than not good tempered. All American women are born takers. and they possess the faculty of interesting their listeners in subjects no more occult than a visit to the milliner's or "Momnia's' love of '.tomaytoes" To her husband the American may be capricious, inconsid- siderate. selfish, eXacting but in her re Iation to her children all the nobler qualities of her character come cut. In them she forgets egotism and IS ready for self-saCrifice. As years lay hold upon her she becomes more and more disciplined by her children and more and more unquestioningly ooed- lent. In this phase the American IS at once a pathetic and curious spectacle. London World.

NEW DISCOVERIES AT VEsUVIUs.

The most recent excavation shows that Vesuvius began its work as con servator of antiquity earlier than the memorable year A. D. @. During the excavations in the valley of the Sar- no, near San Marzano. some most in teresting antiquities have come to light. These had been covered up by a volcanic deposit about six feet thick which points to an eruption of Nesuv- jus which must have taken place in the seventh. century before Christ The relics include Greek burying place. archaic Italian tombs and various bronzes and terra cottas.
