Gas Plant for state House.

Deputy Auditor Cook has taken the pains
to figure out that it would be cheaper for
the state to have a gas plant of It's own
than to pay the Lincoln Gas company for
lighting the state house. Mr.. Cook today
figured out that the state has paid this
company during the last year, from June
! to June sl,4766O FOR gas. This does not in
clude the money which has been paid out
for electric lights About 800 of this amount
was spent during the legislature. Mr.. Cook
will recommend to the State Board of Pub
lie Lands and Buildings that 1t install gas
7 plant.

that is apparently more artistic for
much less than that. but this bit of
pottery has the distinction of rarity
and represents the highest achieve
ment of the pOtters art at period
when it was in its historical fullness.
Many of the best bits of pottery in
the world are in the hands of public
institutions, such as the South Ken
sington museum, in England; the
Louvre, in France, and the Metropol-
itan museum, in America. The Roth
schilds have also been holders for a
long time. Very few of these pieces,
however, are likely to tempt buyers,
because of prohibitive price and be-
cause they do not make the same ap-
peal to the general modern taste as

Where Fish Come From.

"In my garden" said ~ resident OF
Brookline, 81 dug last fall hole three
feet deep, thirty feet long and thirty
feet wide. l filed this hole with wat
err; | made an artificial lake out of il.
To-day that artificial lake lis full of
fish. Where did they come from?
didn't put them there"
THE question you ask me- replied
the biologist, has BEEN asked me
many times before. Tnnumerable
men, building artificial lakes, have,
like you, been mystified to find these
lakes spontaneously producing hosts
of fish.
This is the secret OF the matter.
Fish-eating birds, the gull and hawk
and so on, settle on these new wat
ers, drop into them from their bills
fish spawn-the crumbs, so to speak,
of a recent meal-and these crumbs
propagate, become fish. Thus i'm time
we have an apparent miracle, an artf-
fetal lake spontaneously producing
hundreds of finny denizeDs. Boston

Growers Get Small PERCENTAGE.

William Soule of South Livermore,
Me, recently undertook the shipment
of lot of apples to England through
commission merchants in Liverpool. .
While packing the apples. Mrs. Lillian
Bassett placed a note in one of the
barrels asking the buyer to send her
card stating the price which he paid
for the fruit. The answer was received
the other day, stating that the barrel
in question sold for $2.4S. Soule got
6S cents per barrel. A little arthme-
tic, therefore, brings out the fact that,
while the grower got the trivial sum
of CO cents, the transportation COM
panies and English apple dealers got
$3.50.

Recited Creed as Surgeons Operated.

While expert surgeons slowly cut a
large portion of flesh from a vital
part of his body, Charles Welle of
Santa Barbara, CAL watched their
work and recited in Latin the Nj
Gene creed of the ancient church.
Mr.. Welle. who is 60 years old,
faced almost certain death for year.
Finally nothing remained but an
operation, almost always fatal. but
never before performed in Santa Bar
bara.
Knowing its dangerous character,
Mr.. Welle preferred to die in full
possession of his faculties and re-
fused to take ether. Drugs to allay
pain were administered and while the
surgeons removed the flesh the pa.
tent watched every movement. AS
the effect of the anodyne wore off the
pain of the operation was felt in it's
full force, but never for a moment
did Mr.. Welle lose self-control. There
was a total absence of shock in the
case, and to this. the surgeons say,
is due the recovery of their patient.

convict's Display off Ingenuity.

With nothing but Jackknife to
work with, one of the convicts at the
prison at Wethersfielh, Comm, has re-
locomotives. These models are each
about eighteen inches long, including
the tender, and perfect in every de-
tail. Nothing except wood is used
in the models, yet they may be oper-
ated by turning a crank under the
engine. The wheels go around, the pis-
tons slide back and forth, the cab win
dows may be moved, the bell rung
and the engine and tender uncoupled.
The convict had nothing to work by
except his own memory.

Ancient Bedchambers.

In the seventeenth century English.
men thought it injurious to sleep in
rooms facing the sun, so most of the
rooms faced north and east, opening
off a passage or else out of each
other. At the head of the stairs slept
the master and his wife, and all the
rooms tenanted by the rest OF the
household were accessible only
through that. The daughters OF the
house and maid servants lay in rooms
on one side, say the right. with the
maids in those most distant; those Of
the men lay on the left, the sons Of
the house nearest the chamber of the
master and the serving men farthest
away.

On the day of Chinese marriage
unlimited friends and neighbours or
even perfect strangers. are allowed to
come in and see the bride and they
may make any remark about her, or
to her, they please, says the Boudoir.
Sometimes things horribly rude and
disgusting are said:
To try her temper a man will say:
Fetch your husband cup of teal"
If she does so, all will say jeeringly:
What an obedient wife you are!"
II she sulks and does not do as she
is told they remark: THAT is a-pretty
vixen with which to begin married
life. We cannot congratulate you on
that tartar" and other words to simt

stand on an inverted cup to show how
small are her feet.
