LeapinE Treason.

King William ILL., of England was
passionately fond of the chase and
made it a point never to be outdone in
any leap, however perilous. A Mr..
Cherry, who was devoted to the eXiled
family, took advantage of this to plan
the most pardonable design which was
ever formed against a kings life. He
regularly joined the royal hounds, put
himself foremost and took the most
desperate leaps in the hope that Will
liam might break his neck in following
him. One day, however, he accom-
plished one so imminently dangerous
that the king when he came to the spot
shook his head and drew back 1t is
said that Mr.. Cherry at length broke
his own neck and thereby relieved the
king from further hazard.

influence OF Rcd Hair.

There never has been an important
revolutionary movement without red
haired person intimately concerned, if
not the leader says writer. Nearly
all the great reformers or founders of
religions had red hair. History men
tons that Mohammed was a red haired
man. King David was ruddy. Louis
XIV. was sandy haired man, with
many of the characteristic peculiarities
of the type. Cleopatra is called the
red haired Greek Mary, queen of
Scots, had red hair, and Prince Charles
Borgia looks in her portraits somewhat
auburn: Queen Elizabeth was of de
acidedly red coloring, which will suit
both her admirers apd her detractors."

ALTERING A PICTURE.
why the Change Did Not Please the
Original Artist.

An artist was talking about the noted
German painter Adolf Won Mcneil.
Won Mcneil he said, painted the
clearest and most distinct Of pictures.
Everything with him was worked out
to the last hair. Nothing was ever sug-
gested. With suggested sketchy, i'm
pressionistic pictures he had no sym
patty. He was called the Meissonier
Of Germany.
In discussion of certain impress
sionisfs vague, uninteIligible work
once heard Won Mcneil say:
""rhis man Markheim sold to the
Countess Y. two years ago one Of his
landscapes. The countess after she had
had the landscape a few weeks tired of
it, and to another artist who dined
with her one night she said:
"'I think the new picture that Herr
Markheim sold me lacks animation. 1t
needs life in it, Would you be willing
to paint for me Il man or woman on
that, road that runs through the mid
dle?'
"'"Why, surely, madam said the
second painter And he TOOK the PIC
ture home with him, made the addition
and returned it the next morning.
Later, meeting Markheim, he said:
"'"1 had the audacity to alter a
landscape of yours the other day. 1t
was the landscape you sold the Count
css X. She wanted figure in it, and
to obige her l painted an old peasant
walking down the road
"'Markheim frowned.
"'"1he road?" he said. 1.-THE road
I don't remember any road in that pic
ture.'
"Oh, yes, there is a road" said
the other
"''I can't recall it," said Markheim.
Finally, to settle the matter, they
went to the house of the countess and
stood before the picture.
There said Markheim's brother
artist-"there is your road, and there is
| my old peasant walking down it,
"'"FooI," Markheim cried, what
have you done? That is not road in
the center of my work. 1t is a riv-

THE GROUND CUCKOO.
Remarkable Cunning 1t Displays In
Catching Rattlers.

Catching Rattlers.
One Of the most interesting geological
oddities is the California ground cue
koo. He usually is from twenty to
twenty-five inches long, including his
tail, which measures one-half Of his
whole length. On account of his small
wings he is a poor fier, but what he
lacks in aerial deXterity he makes up
in pedestrian velocity. With his four
yard jumps he can outrm the swiftest
race horse. His geographical range
Is confined to- southern California,
Mexico and some parts Of Texas. AS
bird of prey the ground cuckoo out
wits his most avidious fellow crea-
lures, Snails and large worms consti-
lutte his principal food, which he Is
busy all day in digging out Of the
ground But he does not hesitate to
attack larger animals. 1t is no trou-
bic for him to get the better of small
snakes, and when domesticated he
beats any cat or dog in the extermina-
ton Of mice and small house pests.
Most curiously interesting is the
strategic sagacity he displays in the
capture Of large rattlesnakes. These
he dare not meet in fair and open
combat. As soon as he espies a rattle
snake sleeping in the sun near cac-
tus hedge he surrounds his victim with
a heap of the prickly leaves until he
is well hemmed in. He then pricks
Mt rho rantiIa few times with hiS
sharp bill, which causes a sudden COM
motion in the cactus heap. In his at
tempt to disentangle himself from the
leaves he wounds his tender flesh, and
it takes but an hour or two for the
average RATHER to die of sheer ex-
haustion and furnish s. much coveted
tidbit for the sly cuckoo. His meth
cd with his prey resembles that of the
cat with the mouse.

JAPANESE WHALERS.
The Curious Way They DO Their
Work With Nets and Knives.

WORK with Nets ana Knives.
Whales are captured in nets by the
japanese The wh;lers put off from
the. shore as quietly as possible, and
when they come within the proper dis
lance of their objective the boats
which have hitherto worked in couples,
separate and, dropping their nets as
they go, work around to the rear and
tanks of their expected kill. The nets
are made in large squares each SIDE
being about forty feet long. One net
is composed of six squares i'll line, and
the squares are fastened to each other
which have been worked around to the
rear of the whale then commence to
drive him gently toward the nets. Nov
ing along lazily at first, the whale soon
realizes that something untoward is
happening and, hurrying forward,
dashes on to one OF the nets. This is the
critical moment and when the fisher
men see that the whale is we'll in the
center of one of the squares they raise
great shout and charge in upon him.
When the whale is about spent a man
chosen for his strength, activity, pluck,
GOODNESS and general fitness for his
work then leaps upon his back and
with great triangular shaped knife
proceeds to cut two great gashes in his
body just back of his head. Through
the underlying blubber and these Two
gashes he passes rope and, knottnS
it. makes loop of it, He then repeats
the same operation as far back ON his
body as he can. When the fight has
been completely knocked out of the
whale, boats range alongside of him,
and by the help of the loops already
mentioned the hapless cetacean is
slung between them in such manner
as to minimize the danger of his car
cass sinking.
Then the boats form in procession,
and. making for the shore, there com
mences the most curious part of the
whole affair. The whalers with real
fervor and in the most solemn manner
possible, begin a chanting prayer for
the ease of the departing spirit by call
ing out "Joralu! Jorallu, .Joraku." in
low, deep tones. Upon the third day
after the kill 4 memorial service is
held in the village temple, and prayers
are offered for the rcpose of the dead
whales soul.-Chicago News.

THE OLD SAILING SHIPS.
Why the Wooden Ones Were Better
Than Those Built of Iron.

why the WOO0en ones were bettSr
Than Those Built of Iron.
The sailing ship when / knew her in
the days OF her perfection was sensi-
BILE creature. When say her days Of
perfection mean perfection of build,
gear, seaworthy qualities and ease Of
handling, not the perfection of speed
SHAT quality reached it's highest ex
cellence III the discovery of hollow
lines and departed with the change OF
building material.
None of the iron ships of yesterday
ever attained the marvels of speed
which the seamanship of men famous
In their time had obtained from their
wooden, copper sheeted predecessors.
Everything had been done to make
the iron ship perfect, but no wit of
man had managed to devise an efficient
coating composition to keep her bot
tom clean with the smooth cleanness
OF yellow metal sheeting. After q
spell OF few weeks at sea an iron
ship begins to lag as II. she had grown
tired too soon. 1t Is only her bottom
that is getting foul
A very little affects the speed of a
ship that is not driven on by an untir-
Ing propeller. Often 1t is impossible to
tell what inconsiderate trifle puts her
of her stride. A certain mysterious
ness hangs around the quality of speed
rs 1t was displayed by the old sailing
ships commanded by competent sea
men. In those days the speed was
still matter for the seaman's care.
Therefore, apart from the laws, rules
and regulations for the good preserva-
ton Of his cargo, he was careful of his
loading. Of what is technically called
the trim Of his ship. Some ships sailed
best on an even keel, others had to be
trimmed quite one foot by the stern,

the Law or FINDING
Against All save the owner the Find
ef's Title Is Perfect.

In common law finding is qualified
source OF title to goods and chattels.
Briefly, the law Is that the finder has a
clear title against all the world, except
ing the owner. The proprietor of a
coach or railroad car or ship has no
right to demand property found on his
premises. Such proprietors may sake,
In regard to lost articles, regulations
which will bind their employees, but
they cannot bind the, public.
The law of finding was declared by
the kings bench more than a hundred
years ago (when 1t was the supreme
follows;
A person found wallet containing a
sum Of Ifions.y on a shop floor. He
handed the wallet and contents to the
shopkeeper to be returned to the own
er. After three years, Sizing which
the finder demanded of the shopkeepei'
the wallet and the money. The latter
refused to deliver them, upon the
ground that they were found on his
premises. The finder then. sued the
shopkeeper, and 1t was held, as stated
above, that, against all th/ world save
the owner, the tille of the finder Is per-
feet. The finder has indeed been held
to stand In the place of the owner.
Thus A prevailed in an action against
B, who found an article which had
originally found, but subsequently lost.
The police have no especial rights in
regard to articles lost unless these
rights arc conferred by statute Receiv-
ers Of articles found are trustees for
the owner or finder. In the absence of
special statute they have no power to
keep an article against the finder any
more than finder has to retain an ar
ticle against the owner.
A finder must, however use every
reasonable means to discover the own
or Of found goods before appropriate
ing them to his own use. 1t has been
declared that if the finder knows the
owner or knows that he can discover
him he is guilty of larceny in keeping
or appropriating to himself the arti-
cles found.

ARoumanian Custom

A strange custom is still observed In
Roumania which reminds one strongly
of Robinson Crusoe. When a servant
has displeased his or her master the
i. offender takes his boots in his hands
and places them before the bedroom
door of his master 1t is sign of
great submission, and the boots are
either kicked away as an intimation
that the fault will not be forgiven or
else the servant is told to place them
on his feet, which shows that he is for
given.
