The reporter had been sent to get an interview of the noted burglar who had been caught in the act and was behind the bars at the police station.
 "The boys say you put up pretty stiff fight, Bill," said the reporter. "I'd like to have your version of the affair. It ought to make good story"
 It'll make good story, all right" sullenly answered Bill "but I'll see you in Pittsburg before I'll give it to your paper. It was in your society columns that saw the item that the Thompsons had shut up their house and gone away for the summer-and they hadn't"

Rose Watkins, considered by Edwin Booth one of the best Juliets who had ever played in his support, made her debut with Charlotte Cushman's con- pany. Amy Lee, Mrs. Watkins daugh- ter, according to the Saturday Even- ing Post, tells this story of her moth er's first appearance:
 "I think the play was Jane Shore My mother was obliged to rush upon the stage and, at the sight of Miss Cushman, start back with cry of ter TOT. On the first night she was so overcome with stage freight that she couldn't utter sound. The scene was a flat failure. But, contrary to her expectation, she was not dismissed.
 "'You will do all right tomorrow night, Rose, said the star.
 "When, on the following evening, mother made her entrance, Miss Cush- man caught her by the wrist and jab- bed a hat pin clear through her arm. Naturally-very naturally-mother let out blood curdling shriek. The scene was tremendous success.
 "'Very good commented Miss Cush- man, after the curtain calls. Now you are in fair way to become great actreSS.'"

SOMETHING ABOUT THOSE FISH.
AsphyxiatiOn of Fish Worse Than
 RAilinr 0f Lnhsfers

AsphyxiatiOn of Fish Worse Than
 Boiling of LObsters.
 The government hatchery at Glou- cester turns millions of cod and halibut out into the fishing grounds annually, but the mackerel take care of them. selves.
 The cod Is cold water fish, and as the Arctic currents flowing south hugs the New England coast they congregate there in the winter and early spring, but go to the Labrador coast and the Artic regions during the summer
 Goldfish matched later than April do not thrive on account of the water be- ing tco warm. For that reason the hatcheries turn their attention to lob ster matching during the spring and summer.
 The lobster is queer sort of fish, but growing more and more popular all the tune. Just now the demand is greater than the supply, for which reason the government is matching and turning loose a million or more day.
 Tie eggs of the lobster are attached to the under side of the body of the female, and as they hatch the young are scraped off by her and set to hustle for themselves.
 When first hatched they look like flakes of bran, or rolled oats, and have no semblance whatever of lobster. They are turned loose anywhere on rocky coast, or shallow place.
 If one of these tiny flakes has luck 1t will grow to full size in six years. But for every one that has luck thousand haven't, but are gobbled up by other Holsters or fish.
 As you may know, the bright red color of the lobster you see in the mar ket is caused by chucking the living lobster into boiling water or steam vat.
 This seems awfully cruel at first, but on second thought it is not nearly as bad as throwing fish out of water and allowing them to slowly die by asphyx- iation. The lobster's death is sudden and painless, while that of its scaly brother is slow, if not painful.
 Scientists tell us that fish and other coll-blooded creatures are scarcely sen- cible of pain at all.
 But whether fish may suffer or not, it is not pleasant to see them gasping for breath and struggling to get back into the water-Pittsburg Times-Ga. zette.

 "What time is the band re- hearsal?" asked the actor.
 Right now, sir" answered the cornet player.
 "But where is the band?"
 "I am here, sir; the rest are playing at a dance. You will have to get along with me-"

Queen Wilhelmina had an un- usual experience while skating on the canal near to the royal residence of Het Loo at Abel doorn yesterday.
 Her Majesty, who vas going along at a good pace, had the misfortune to run up against a peasant woman who was skating in the opposite direction.
 Such was the force of the i'm pact that the woman only just saved herself from falling, and she vented her wrath on the queen in unmeasured terms.
 The queen, not at all annoyed, made excuses for her awkward : ness and proceeded down the canal.

A young lady working in a stocking factory, fearing that her chances for matrimony were small, says the White Cloud Globe, wrote the following and slipped into the toe of gentle mans sock: "A young lady, good looking and of some means would like to correspond with the wearer of this sock, if he is single, with the view to matri- mony." A young man bought the sock, and he said: ''There's my chance. He wrote to the young lady offering himself as a suitable party, and to his sur prise got this reply: "I have been married eight years and have a family of five children. " The man from whom he had bought the sock had never ad- vertised, consequently they had laid on the shelves for eight years.

Miss Brennan was ad- miring Bolivar's huge body yes terday and feeding him with pea nuts. She leaned too far over the rail and her new winter hat dropped off. Bolivar picked it up and lifted it high in the air, while Miss Brennan and her girl friends screamed at the thought of Bolivar swallowing the stylish headgear. Bolivar, however, low cred his trunk and Miss Brennan resolutely reached for her hat. "Give it here!" she demanded. And Bolivar, to the astonishment of everybody, ''gave it."
