Philosophy Not His Lay.

Melville d, Landon (Eli Perkins),
a self-accused professional humorist
with reputation to get, was regis
t red at the Saratoga hotel one day
last week. In the evening of that
day, while sitting about the office
stove, with several gentlemen for an
audience, Eli, from some cause
known only to himself, saw fit to
abandon his field of humor for that
of philosophy. He did not recognize
his mistake until it was too late.
The special theme of Ellis philos-
Ophic dissertation was the "race
problem -. one that most people
would hesitate to discuss before an
audience of strangers. But not SO
Eli. He approached his subject in
leaps, and before his hearers knew it
they were listening to such a lauda-
tion OF the negro as is seldom heard
outside IL political assembly in a
close northern election district where
the vote of every colored brother is
needed to insure the work of reform.
Eli is II negro lover. He would
stand at the wide open s'door of
hope' and beg them to rush in and
take possession Of the promised land
the United States OF America.
Further, he would lead them and
bring them into his mothers home
and cause them to "drink of the
spiced wine of the juice of the pomc-
granate.'
Well, there was lot of this sort of
stuff and the crowd, while a little
uneasy, bade fair to SIT it out with
out dissent when, all OF a sudden,
there was an interruption, 1t came
from Joseph Dawson, the well-known
hardware drummer of Orlando. Jo-
seph was filed with disgust, and
wEle he star ed in to give it express
sion the crowd looked encouragement
Then he waded III, and before he got
through Eli wished he had never
abandoned Lis chosen field of humor
for that of philosophy, no, not even
for d minute.
Dawson roasted him to finish and
then turned him over in the warm
ing pan, basted and rubbed him and
then roasted him again 1t would
have done you good to have been
there and heard it. You would have
thanked Dawson, as did the others
who were present, for the thorough
ness of his work as well as the nicely
the dexterity of execution.
The self-accused humorist left on
the first train.

LIFE IN GREENLAND.


Ehe ways OF the feOptc, Ihe1r FAeAs"
ures and Their Food.
Greenland's west coast is considered
to have the grandest scenery of any
coast In the world by Roger Pollock,
who writes of journey thither as fol-
lows: "The sunny arctic day, which
lasts for months; Sky all flaming
glory, the fretted spires of the Alps
flanked with stupendous cliffs and
based ON the restful levels of the sea,
cities of crowded bergs, compound of
dazzling light and radiant color-such
scenery as that blots out ones former
memories. Our first port of call was
Jakobshavn. at the head Of Disco
strait, biggest of the northern villages,
a metropolis of nine white people and
400 natives. Beside q pocket harbor,
perched on round shoulders of the ma
ked granite, are the buildings, all tarred
black, of the Royal Trade company.
For a background to the dismal scene
rise higher rocks, Uttered with garbage
and turf huts, the homes of the ma
tives. At heart the place is gay, for
our sailors went ashore every night to
dance with the Eskimo girls, while
the officers of ship and colony swapped
dinner parties, breakfasts and lunch
cons all through a nine days festival,
"Men and women alike" the writer
continues, were linguists. well read
accomplished, little too polite for
comfort, living metropolitan life on
one batch of letters year in an arctic
outpost. Expecting the pathos, of ban
ishment, found the gayety Of perfect
content. The Danes of all the settle
ments were alike in social charm, gen
tie and polished-arrant gossips, too
and the indoor life had little to remind
one Of the outdoor wilderness. The
Innuit servant maids wore the furry
breeches. boots to the hip and curious
topknot of their national dress. One
had to fall promiscuously in love with
all of them
Even the Danish men wore native
dress, but there was one important dis
tinction-they washed. The food, apart
from Danish groceries. was seal meat,
fish, reindeer, venison. shellfish. ptar-
migan, sea birds and their eggs, which.
as served in Greenland. are always
pronounced in flavor"

Thomas r. Baker f Rollins Col

compiled a weather record for Flori-

some of the statistics and informa-
ton there given.
"The earliest Information | was
able to obtain was of Il great freeze

St. Augustine We're killed, as well as
many curious evergreens up the st.

twenty years old. Above Volusia
the temperature on the second day

the temperature was very low, and
on the 9Th day of April OF that year
heavy frost occurred, destructive
to vegetation, and the temperature
was as low as % degrees at Picolata.
1.-The severest cold ever experienced
in Florida, so far as known, occurred
on the night of the 7th of February,
1885, when the temperature went as
low as degrees above zero at Jack
sonville and vicinity. The St. Johns
river was frozen several rods from
the shore, all kinds of fruit We're
killed to the ground, many never
started again; and the wild groves
were frozen AS far as 20 degrees. In
1874 the writer saw very large sweet
orange trees on Drayton Island
bearing fruit, which could not have
been killed in February, 1885, The
temperature at Ft. King, near Ocala,
then an army post, fell to II degrees
at that time
"In 1857 the mercury fell to 16 de-
grees at Jacksonville and 26 degrees

"It will be seen from statistics,
that fall of the temperature below
the freezing point, 81 degrees, has oc-
currred many times during the past
forty years, and that by reason of
occurring in December or early in
January, when the trees were in Il
more dormant condition, no great ill.,
jury was inflicted upon the trees.
1t is only when the freezes have oc
Cured in February when the sap
was up and new growth started, that
the trees were so greatly injured.
There is nothing in the idea that
the climate is changing. If there is
any change it is in the regions where
the blizzards come from, or in the
occasional transfer of the cold wave
from December and January to Eel
ruary."

THE cHAUTAUQuA ASSEMBLY.
Correspondence of The Journal !

CHAUTAUQUA, n. Y, Aug. 8. The thir-
ty-frst annual session Of this Assembly
opened with "Old First Night Anniver-
sary" exercises Tuesday evening, August
LIST. Chancellor Vincent presided. The
exercises were in the amphitheatre, where
an assembly Of ten thousand people listen
ed to the c. L. S. c. songs, addresses and
music. Many of the older Chautauquans
who were here On August /, 1874, were
present on this thirty-frst anniversary and
took part in the exercises. The different
sections of our own country, as well as
many foreign countries, were represented
In the audience. The largest numbers were
from New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio.
The c. L. S. c. classes, from the "Pioneers"
of 1882 to the "Dante" class of 1909, were
well represented.
The population of Chautauqua for 1905
exceeds in numbers that in any former
year. The lectures, concerts, and all en-
tertainments are of the highest order. The
summer schools have enrolled an unusually
large number of students. Great improve
ment in way of parks, gardens and build
ings is noticeable. Where formerly wooden
buildings stood that were used for the mar
kets and supply stores, the visitor at Chau-
tauqua sees large, substantial brick
block, named the Commercial Block, in
which are large department stores where
all wants may be supplied. The post office
is also in this block. When completed this
edifice will cost forty-thousand dollars.
The new Hall of Philosophy, beautiful in
design and architecture, is constructed OF
enduring material at an expense of twenty
one thousand dollars. The Grange Home
is another fine building. This is dedicated
to the use of all members of the order OF
Patrons of HuSbandry and is visited by
many patrons. MIR. and Mrs. W. c.. Clifford
OF jamestown have charge of the Home.
The special days are yet to come.
August II, President Roosevelt will address
the people here. August 10, will be Recog-
milton Day, the important day for the large
class of 1905, "The Robert Browning" class.
The address on this occasion will be by
Miss Jane Addams, "Work and. Play as
Factors in Education" This class has two
representatives from Seaside Chautauqua
Circle of Belfast, who have come here to
participate in Recognition Day exercises
and receive their diplomas. August 49,,
will be Grange Day, when Hon. Robert
Watchorn will give his lecture, protecting
Our Newcomers and Ourselves" followed
by concert. In the afternoon there will
be platform exercises and a lecture, "Per-
sonal Glimpses of Celebrated Men and
Women" by DR.. Russell II. Conwell.
Each day is filed with something inter
esting and instructive by the most popular
speakers and the problem with the visitor
at Cbautauqua is how to get the most out
OF the rapidly passing hours. c.
