CHARMING FLIES IS
A NEW OCCUPATION
New York Hears How 1t Is Done in
Wild and Woolly
West

NEW YORK, June 2.-"There Is a
summer occupation in the west" said
the travelling man, that has proved
profitable for the last three years. and
many men are now getting ready to
drop their other work and take 1T up,
for the occupation of fly charmer
pays over $5 a day to man with
high-class clientele.
ut is said that several enterprising
westerners are going to introduce their
queer occupation into Gotham this
summer, but they can hardly hope for
| Widespread success, for this is a city
of flats and small homes
"In his business the fly charmer is
armed with a canvas fan about four
feet square. With this he slowly drives
the swarms of flies from the attic of
the house down through every floor,
never missing fly, and accommodating
the insects in every apartment visited.
Every room in his wake Is Immediately
closed, to guard against any homesick
flies that might try to get back to
their old QUARTERS.
"As the buzzing swarm in front of
the immense fan accommodates they
follow their leader, much like a swarm
of bees, until they are finally whisked
into small, unused room, where their
conqueror sets fire to some smoky
preparation that soon sends them off
to a land where there are no bald
heads to tickle, no soup to drown in
and no danger of untimely burial in
the table butter.
But right here in New York the
fly is migratory and will rush where
angels fear to tread. So the plan might
not work here"

OCCIDENTAL CLUB GIVES
SMOKER AND RECEPTION
NEARLY SIX HUN
DRED GUESTS
Members and Friends Enjoy the Hos
pitality of Spring Street organiza-
tion-Beginning of Series of En-
tertainments

Members of the Occidental club and
their friends were entertained in the
handsome club rooms on Spring street
last night. A smoker, which was one Of
the series of periodical entertainments
devised to bring the members into
closer association and to get them bet
ter acquainted, was the occasion which
made history in the club as one of the
most successful and thoroughly enjoy
able affairs given under its auspices.
Informality reigned everywhere and
the 600 members and guests were bid
den to seek a pleasant evening in any
of the many ways provided by the club
for their entertainment.
A negro orchestra of several pieces
was stationed in the main reception
hall and furnished music, both vocal
and instrumental, until near midnight
A luncheon was set in the small dining
hall and refreshments were furnished
by the members.
The smoker had no connection with
the election and was in no wise a cele-
bration, one way or the other, although
the members were furnished with bulle-
tins of the election results by The
Herald as fast as they came in from the
los precincts, and later in the evening
bulletins of the Corbett- Hanlon fight
were received and read to the guests.
The affair was in charge of a special
entertainment committee, of which Il.
NaWrnan WAS chairman

which had representatives present, were
used. In the main hall quantities of
yellow mustard and lights delicately
shaded in yellow represented the gold
Of the university. Green and gold were
the colors used in the dental college
room and pennants of black and gold
gave a brilliant suggestion of the law
school. In the liberal arts room were
used red and cardinal, the colors always
displayed by that branch. Especially
effective was the decoration in the
music and fine arts room. There plum
bago in the palest Of blue was COM
bined with gold. Decorations for the
medical college department were in
deep blue and gold and the class color
of the college of oratory is suggested in
another room by the use of pink roses.
The university orchestra dispensed
sweet music during the reception hours
and fruitade was served by a bevy of
prettily gowned young women. Re-
freshments were served at tables on the
upper floor.

A Precocious Sportsman

1.-THE Americans are great sportsmen,
said Sir Thomas Dewar, in recounting
his impressions of America. From
their earliest years they take con-
suming interest in all sorts of contests
and races.
II remember, one cold afternoon, in
New York, seeing a poor little ragged
lad with his nose glued against the
window of a toy-shop. L stopped be-
side him and looked down. But he paid
no heed to me. His clear young eyes
were intent on the windows bright and
inviting contents.
without a word I slipped a penny
into his cold little hand. He looked at
the penny, and then he looked at me.
"'Well If this amt luck he said
I've been wishin' for cent, and here's
one dropped right into me fist
"'What did you want the cent for,
my lad?' said 1.
"The urchin answered:
at wanted to get night extry to see
wot's won. I've got a dollar on swal-
low in the third race"
what" asked the professor, lis the future
Of the Russian soldier?"
WELL" answered the student ''he ought
to be able to win medals a sprinter"-

MULE JAMS MAN AGAINST
WAGON, CUTTING EAR OFF
Teamster Victim Of Peculiar and Palm
full Accident While Harness.
ina Animal

J. b. Cearly, teamster employed by
the Crandall company, met with pc
culiar and painful accident while har-
Messing a nervous mule yesterday aft
ernOon.
Cearly was in the act of putting the
mules collar on when a Mexican few
feet away snapped a whip and fright
ened the animal. The mule jumped to
one side, jamming Ceary against the
wheel of a nearby wagon in such
way that his right ear was completely
severed from his head.
Cearly was quickly taken to the re-
ceiving hospital by friend, who
wrapped the amputated ear in piece
of paper and carried it to the hos
pital with him. The member could
rot be replaced, however, and Cearly
must go through life with but one
ear.

Reflections of a Bachelor

Generally you can tell when a girls
hair is red by the way her family calls
it golden.
Suburban life is an awful good train
ing for the next world in case you so
to the wrong place.
Either people think you get on be-
cause you have brains, or because you
get ON you have brains.
When a man gets old enough to
think he doesn't know it all he has a
son young enough to think he does
When man has paid all his family
bills and has a dollar and a quarter
left over he feels as If he had Inherited
a gold mine.-New York Press.

What His Father Thought

A believer in mental healing recently
inquired of a friends small son: "How
is your father?"
Father is feeling bad and complains
much of his health" said the boy.
That's all nonsense, p" replied the
friend. The next time your father
complains you must tell him that it is
all imagination. Tell him to brace up;
there is nothing the matter with him
he just thinks he is sick"
Two or three days after the GENTLE
man again met the boy and inquired
about the health of his father. Father
thinks he is dead, sir" replied the boy.
