BIG NAMES, SMALL TOWNS.
zoYork, Tea; Chicago, Ky.;
Philadelphia, N. Y; Brooklyn, Penn

Little there may be in a name, cities and
towns, we'll as individuals, have to have some
sort of a tag by which they may be designated,
and some people seem 60 think there not
enough names to go around, titles are borrowed
without regard to fitness It is by no means
necessary that there be a resemblance In fact
Ehe myriad of little American hamlets and viii
hges that bear big names present somewhat
amusing spectacle. Some curiosties in that line
worthy of mention. There is a cluster of
houses down in Henderson County, Tex, which
is called New-York Miles from the nearest
railway, it leads isolated, self-reant life and
does not worry about rapid transit subways or
bridge congestion.
Besides the Windy City, Lake Michigan,
there three little Chicagos and two New
Chicagos One Chicago, in the mountains
OF Kentucky, is a railroad running south
from Louisville, which in one afternoon
the traveller passes through Boston, Chicago,
Pittsburg and London.
There are nine little Philadelphias, none of
them noted for great thrift enterprise. JEFF
ferson County, N. Y, has one.
A score or more of places have borrowed the
name of The Hub
Brooklyn is a favorite name There are at
least dozen of them, but none more peacefully
and pleasantly situated than Brooklyn, Penn.
Almost every State has Washington. Wash
ngton, KY, is of the oldest towns in the
State and almost contemporaneous with Wash
fngton, D. c. Its old courthouse, still standing,
was erected in 1894. It has another dfstinC-
tion. AS a girl Harriet Beecher afterward Mrs.
Stove taught school there. 1t was in the old
avery days. and once she witnessed sale OF
negroes in front of the old courthouse. The
incident made such lasting impression that

beautifully bound manuscript volumes of anec-
dotes of the stage. Suddenly he laughed.
Did you ever see MephistOpheles played by
fat MANI" he asked. mo? Well, 1 once knew
a fat who played Mephistopheles. and
played it well; only. and then, he would
have mishap, for great weight and bulk are
impedments the stage
Once in an Indiana town-in the town,
think, of KokOmo-my fat friend played Me-
phistopheles. The opera house of Kokomo was
little. The stage was small. My friend, the
day of his arrival rehearsed hastily. That
night he appeared for the first time.
And everything went well. the applause was
enthusiastic, till the middle of the third act
when it was necessary for crimson garbed
and fat Mephistopheles to descend through a
trap into the internal regions. At the proper
moment he leaped skilfully into this trap, but
instead of disappearing at once his legs only
disappeared.
'Mephlstopheles was too fat for the trap He
stuck in it half way. He wrggled and twisted
and he drew in his breath, trying to make his
stomach small enough to pass through but in
vain.
The audience, interested amazed perpleyed
watched. And in the tense silence the nants
and low grunts of the struggling MephfstonbaIes
could be plainly heard.

II wouldn't go any nearer that elk. He's not

The danger signal display of long,
vicious looking teeth disclosed by the snarling
lip of a large elk. The big creature was stand

step might have meant trouble. for an elk at
bay is not the pleasantest thing in the world
to be faced by unar-1ed man. The stranger
dropped back a few PAGES and the red glare
faded from the eyes of the elk. The lip slowly
went down over the long teeth and the big.
sleek creature turned into the pond at its side
and plunged through the water to the other

tesian well several hundred feet and secured a
fine flow of water. This is not only sufficient
to irrigate his large farm, but he has con-
structed chain of artificial lakes, all of which
he has stocked with trout in various stages of
propagation and growth. These trout lakes
are in the centre of the park in which his elk
and antelope roam. This ideal retreat, with it's
lakes of ice cold water, filled with active gleam-
ing trout, and with elk and antelope standing
placidly in the shining pools shows what a
