Ben Perkins. colored. an ex-police-

Officer c. A. Smith on a charge of dis
orderly conduct. Smith states that
Perkins stopped him on the street near
the postohice and cursed him. Smith
resented the verbal attack by shifting
Perkins on the jaw and dragging him
to the police station.
Perkins was discharged from the
police force about a month ago on &C
count of an alleged attempt to black

charge against Perkins satisfied the
mayor, and he lost his star. The wo-

negro policeman who approached her

Perkins Smith was incensed at Per
kins for using his name, and the row
this morning was about the affair.

FACTS ABOUT MAKING TEA.
Japanese Way Is Best, Explains an Ex
pert In the Trade.

pert In the Trade.
Remarks made recently by man
who has acquired some prominence
in the tea trade and who passed
some years in Japan may be of inter
est to some to whom they come as
hitherto unknown facts.
HThere are two ways to make tea, %
said the dealer in that commodity,
crossing his legs and squirting his
left eye rehectively-"th Japanese
way and the other way" Whether
or not tea is harmful may depend
entirely on which of these entirely
different methods is employed.
"a small platter or bowl is an in
dispensable part of every Japanese
tea set. In this the water to be
used in the process is heated, not to
the boiling point, but to a point as
near it as may be without actually
reaching it. The native expert will
bend over the little sizzling fire,
testing the degree of heat impaired
to the water in the bowl by delicate
ly lingering the outside of this re-
ceptacle from time to time, even
while carelessly talking. When he
becomes at last satisfied that the de-
sired end has been attained he pours
the warm water on to his tea leaves
and lets it stand for from three to
five minutes. He then pours off the
liquid into his teapot, and the result
is the mild aromatic stimulant much
priced as being genuine Japanese
tea.
'The tother way is very well
known in this country. 1t consists
in pouring boiling water over the
leaves and letting the mixture steep
for an indefinite period. By this
means the tannin which is contained
in the tea is brought out and dark
amber colored liquid is produced.
1t is the tannin which is responsible
for the long crusade against indul-
gence in the beverage. This is the
injurious principle Chemically
there is no difference between this
tannin and that which is used in
preparing leather for the market.
No wonder the inner man rebels.
F'The average American, however,
cannot wait and watch throughout
the time required in the preparation
of the japanese drink, and prac-
teal substitute must be suggested
if he is to enjoy its harmlessness
and flavor My experience has been
that if boiling water be used and al
lowed to stand only minute and is
then poured off a decoction is OBJ
tanned which is very similar to the
oriental in every way. Such a drink
is mild at best, but it has the value
of being physically undetrimental
Should there be any one, however,
who in opinion resembles the old
woman who stated that she didn't
like her tea strong and never let it
steep more than fifteen minutes it is
to be feared that no substitutes will
be accepted"

TALL, Thin AND MUSCULAR.
The American Type of Man Clearly
Distinct From All Othors.

The American Type Of Man Clearly
Distinct From All Others.
There is as distinctive a type of
American manhood as there is of
any other country. True, the Amer
lean people are a mixture. We COM
bine several different races and
bloods. But the intermixture has
gone on SO gradually, the original
American type always prevalent,
that the American man is distinct
representative of civilization, diff
fering from the Englishman, the
Frenchman and the German as
much as these differ from each
other
Examination of the portraits of
Revolutionary times and those of
the present date show little if any
difference between the men of the
earlier times and those of the pres
emit day, save In the matter of at
tire. Dress the people of the pres
emit day as we're the people of the
Revolutionary epoch appareled, and
nothing could be found to establish
4 notable difference between the
American of today and the Ameri-
can of the last quarter of the eight
zenith century. Food, climatic con-
ditions and occupations have all
much to do with the physical Pc
culiarities of a people. The races
that have for centuries received no
admixture of foreign blood retain
pecularities that seem unchanged
BE.
What people eat and drink, their
dwelling places, the soil and climate
they inhabit, their worship, amuse-
ments and work all determine looks.
The American Indian when first met
on this continent by adventurous
Europeans lived almost exclusively
on q meat and flesh diet, the prod
uct of chase and other adventure.
He was tall, thin, muscular and dar-
ing. His eye was bright, his hear
ing acute. He looked the fearles:
being that he really was. He had
to fight wild beasts and savage man.
He feared neither. The early white
settlers, Obliged by the peculiar con-
ditions Of pioneer times to live in a
measure like the Indians, became
also tail, thin, muscular, daring.
Their eyes flashed with the fearless
ness that characterizes the Ameri-
can race OF the present.
We have more generous and va
ried diet than our ancestors. Diet
affects personal appearance in a
marked degree We are becoming q
larger and heavier race, but the dis
tinctive features of century or
more ago are still in evidence. The
American is easily recognized every
where he goes in foreign lands. He
will for long time present the same
type that today distinguishes him
from men of all other races.-Louis-
vile Herald.

WOMAN HAPPIER THAN MAN.
She Has the Faculty of Enjoyment &c
q Greater Decree.

Women have better time in life
than men do. Under no circum-
stances would l choose to be a man.
If had chance to come to earth
again in another incarnation and
were given the choice l should with
out hesitation elect to be a woman,
writes Angela Morgan for the New
York World. Women know how to
get the finest flavor from life. They
know how simply because they are
born to it, not because they acquire
the knowledge through effort.
To draw the real essence from liv-
ing one must be endowed with these
qualities: Imagination, intuition,
sensibiIity and the capacity to love.
Women possess all these requisites
TO greater degree than men. For
this reason women can lay hold on
the subtler enjoyments of life. And,
as the subtlest enjoyments are the
best and most lasting, it is the wo-
men who have monopoly of real
happiness in life. 1t is in her ca
pacity to love that woman expert
ences hergreatestjoys. Woman gets
vast deal more out of love than man.
Show me the man to whom love
means one-tenth that it does to
womanl When a man loves, the ex-
ternal scenery of life does not
change visibly to him. Life does not
become a thing bewitched and gild-
ed. His days and hours and mo-
ments are not permeated by love as
an influence. Love to a man means
an exhilarating chase for possession.
A woman pleases him, captivates
him, and he wants her for his own.
In possession, he finds certain
pleasure certain pride and salts
faetion-but as for happiness, the
sort of happiness a woman extract
from love-why, he doesn't know
the A B G of it! Once in awhile
perhaps sense of it grazes his con-
sciousness, but he is too busy to
give it more than a curious thought
or two. His mind is too crowded
with practical things to admit the
tintangible" But when a woman
loves she lives. She does not live
until she does love. Love to her is
all absorbing, all transforming, all
embracing.

puELING STORIES.
a Combat That Won Applause In the
Time of Charles TX.

Combat That Won Applause In the
Time of Charles TX.
In its medieval form dueling
was a serious affair. The loser was
not only regarded as under the di-
vine displeasure, but as the abso-
lutte property of the victor. He
might be hanged or kept prisoner or
handed over for disposal to the lady
in the case. De Fendilles refused to
enter the lists till he had seen a
fire lighted and a gallows made
ready to hang and burn his enemy
after the victory he made SO sure
of. Another method of the times
barbarism was to drag the beaten
man around the field, dead or alive.
Even Bayard complied with this
most unchivalrous custom. There
were doctors of dueling, who were
consulted just as were advocates of
law, and the institution became en-
tangled in the intricacies of red
tape. The regulation about the
choice of arms gave rise to many
abuses.
A case much admired at the time
was that of two gentlemen in the
reign of Charles TX. of France, who
rowed over to the Isle du Palais in
order to be free from interruption.
Just as they were about to cross
by themselves and without any sec
onds-they saw a number of gentle
men making for the quay. to get
boats and come and separate them.
But they ordered the boatmen-
they were both in one boat-to hur-
ry and get them across as they were
on urgent business. AS soon as
they touched shore they said to each
other no more than fLet us get to
work. These people will be here
in a minute" And SO they did
scarcely crossing swords before each
man killed the other. Thus they
were found dying side by side.
There was historic case at Pied
mont, in which a fencing master adj
vised young gentleman under his
tuition to light with dagger and
sword and a steel collar around the
neck of each duelist, with sharp
points above and below. The young
man was short of stature, and the
arrangement enabled him to look
up at his adversary comfortably,
while the latter could not look down
at all without the risk of nearly cut
ting his head off by his own exer-
tons. Consequently the young gem
tleman dispatched him very easily
in a couple of strokes.-Ch Chicago

A cioar Story.

A few of the friends of Broad
way cigar dealer enjoy at times high
priced smokes for very little money.
The dealer in question carries sew
eral lines of one and two dollar ci-
CARS as well as one brand selling for
$3.50. These are naturally made Of
the richest Havana leaf and are es-
pecially attractive to an insect which
burrows into the cigar, making a
hole as large as the head of pin
and perhaps a quarter of an inch
deep. The insect does not spoil the
flavor of the tobacco. But in the
higher priced grades it is impossible
to offer for sale patched wrapper,
and SO these cigars are laid aside to
be sold to the favored ones.
They are grouped with regard to
the number of perforations, thoso
with a couple of holes selling for 35
cents each, while others go for as
low as 15 cents. A bit of cigarette
paper wetted and placed over the
hole preserves the draft, and the
cigar is every bit as good as those in
the case.-New York Press.

A Blind SPOT In the Eve.

1t is remarkable that although
the optic nerve is of all parts of the
eve the most sensitive to light, yet
should an object fall on it as we
look around us-and some object
must always be thrown on tit is
invisible to as, and In our. field of
vision there is in reality a gap,
though in ordinary sight the sur
rounding edges of this gap draw up
together and SO fill it. But by clos
ing one eye by practice one may
actually force the object which is
reflected on to the optic nerve to
disappear completely from the field
of vision. Bernstein tells US that
even the sun itself can be made to
disappear if it falls exactly on the
blind spot where the optic nerve en-
tiers the eye. This may account for
the fact that some people can close
one eye and stare the summer sun
without wincing.

Use of Both Hands.

We should form the habit of using
each of our hands in turn in our one
handed activities. In few months
we might attain to fair ambidexteri-
ty, in few years to the full use of
each hand. For this object the best
exercise is writing with the neglect
ed hand. If man learned to write
well with either hand almost all the
other unimanual graces would be
added unto him. There are many
other unimanual activities in which,
by changing the hand employed in
them, we might cultivate ambidex-
terity, as in carrying stick or UNI
brella, in fencing with foil, in
counting money, in changing our
watch pocket from side to side, in
changing the parting of our hair, in
the use of a spoon in taking soup, in
domestic carpentry and in many 9TH
er usual actiyities.-Sir James Saw
