italian BriEands,

A German gentleman was one even
ing riding along the public highway
near ImOla when his horse threw him
and bolted. He picked himself up and
lighted a match to see what time ii
was, but found that his watch had
stopped. Just at that moment two
bicyclists hove I'm sight, and he went
forward, making signs for them to
stop, but the men pedaled furiously
Of sight. About two months after the
gentleman was reading an account Of
travel in Italy when he came across
the following passage:
zone evening we had an adventure
with a 5rigand. We were bicycling
near Imola, when an individual in a
long dusty cloak suddenly sprang from
the ground and with n small lighted
torch, which he flourished with furious
gestures, demanded ours matches. We
with great agility, but by the skin of
our teeth, avoided the i'll intentioned
fellow and, shouting that we had no
watches, made off as fast as we could
Whether followed or not we did not
wait to see. "-Rome Letter to Pail

His MuHicaI Err.

It isn't always best to brag about
your gifts. Out on one of the boule-
wards lives q man who lays claims to
a musical ear and plays a little on.the
piano. Frequently he has criticised
his wife for what he called her inabil-
ity to carry tune.
Your ear, IL you had a musical one
as 1 have, would show you how to car
~ a tune" he would say One day he
complained that her piano was out of
tune and asked his wife to telephone
for a tuner. She decided to test his
musical ear" so that night when he
came home from his business she said:
Twill, please try the piano and see IL
the tuner has done it any good. ]
haven't any ear and cannot tell, but
you can"
The man sat down at the instrument
and played a simple tune. IT'S all
right now" he said. "That fellow did
good job"
His wife summoned up her courage.
"Will," she said. 1.-THE tuner didn't
come today. He's coming tomorrow

BIG SUIT FILED
IN THE j. s.
COURT
AL. LanSelIier Enters Suit Against
R. G. Peters for Half of Land
Owned By Latter.

A big suit was entered yesterday
in the United States court, which III
wolves several hundred thousand
acres of land. Ii is that of A. l..
Langellier against R. G. Peters.
Mr.. Langellier, in his suit claims a
one-half interest in ali the lands
which were purchased several years
ago by Mr.. Peters from the Louisville
and Nashville railroad, this claim be-
ing on a contract entered into be-
tween himself and Mr.. Peters.
The value of the lands will probably
reach 100000. Mr.. Langellier acted
as agent for Mr.. Peters for a number
Cf years, having his headquarters in
Pensacola. and through his efforts
several hundred thousand acres have
been sold, but there still remain large
tracts some OF which is very valuable
On account of the timber contained
thereon.
The firm was known for a number
of years as the Michigan Syndicate.

The Old Man Cactun.

Nature INDUCES in an occasional
joke. There is found growing in the
desert region of North America a spe-
cies of cactus known TO bOtanists as
Pilocereus senilis, or the "old man cac-
tus." There is IN this plant a wonder
full resemblance to a human head COW
cred with gray hairs. The plant is
slow Of growth, and small specimens
are more frequent than large ones. The
plant is covered with long white hairs,
which completely hide the body or
stem of the plant. These hairs are fire.
quently gathered into locks, adding to
the resemblance of the frOwsy head of
an old man. Plants known to be TWEEN
ty-flve years old are but a few inches
in height, yet specimens are found
which are twenty-five feet tai and q
foot in diameter, representing, it is be-
lieved, the growth of several hundred
years. In these gigantic specimens Of
"old man cactus" the term "old" is
quite the most appropriate part Of the
title.

The Landlords PRAYER.

In a prayer book of the time of King
Edward VI. Of England appears the
following prayer for landlords: ''The
earth Is thine, o Lord, and all that is
contained therein, Notwithstanding
thou hast given possession of it to the
children Of men to pass over the time
of their short pilgrimage in this vale Of
misery. We heartily pray thee to send
thy holy spirit into the hearts 6 those
that possess the grounds, pastures and
dwelling places Of the earth, that they,
remembering themselves to be thy ten
ants, may not rack nor stretch out the
rents Of their houses and lands nor yet
take unreasonable fines and incomes
after the manner of covetous world
lings, but so let them out to others
that the inhabitants thereof may both
be able to pay the rents and also hon.
estly to live and nourish their families
and relieve the poor. Give them grace
also to consider that they are but
strangers and pilgrims in this world"

at seems to me that the way to

your sympathy and affection" says
DR.. Edward Brooks in Rochester Her
aid. "As for overlooking any faults,
man ought not to see any faults in his
wife. If it does happen that there are
a few very patent ones-and suppose
there are some women who are not ex-
actly angels-a man ought not to see
them any more than he sees the spots
on the sun when it is shining brilliant
" in the heavens, and he ought to re-
member that no matter what disillu-
sions he may experience after mar
riage it was be himself who undertook
the responsibility Of taking to himself
a young woman that he promised to

His seldIlt. Powder Cartridge

How a mans life was saved by q
common seldlitz powder is described
by a German physician, DR.. Franck,
who was called to treat a man who
had swallowed a large piece OF tough
meat which stuck in his gullet. AS it
was impossible TO dislodge the meat
by natural meansAnd as the patients
condition was critical, the doctor tried
the efficacy of the gas which is geRer-
ated when the constituents Of a seid-
litz powder are mixed. He directed the
man to swallow the two halves Of one
Of the powders separately, and the re-
sulting pneumatic pressure, aided by
the man, who shut his mouth and
closed the nasal passages, was suffi-
Gent to drive the piece of meat out Of
the gullet into the stomach.
