A TALL TIGER.
The Why the Sleek Brute Impressed
an Excited French man.


Tigers are impressive creatures, es-
pecially when one meets them in the
forest. George Maxwell writes of
them There is little doubt that al
most every one has peculiar sensa-
ton of the almost godlike beauty, pow
er, activity and strength of tiger. A
tiger will overawe and make conscious
Of his inferiority man who would be
unaffected by the bulk of an elephant
The feeling is, however, elusive of de-
scription, and l can perhaps best ex-
plain it in the words Of a most charm
ing French gentleman who was once
manager of a great tin mining COM
pany in Perak We had just finished
lunch when he entered in a state of
tremendous excitement. Walking alone
and unarmed along an unfrequented
bride path through the forest, he had
walked almost on to a tiger
"He gave us a most vivid narrative
of the encounter-how the tiger had
been lying down concealed in some
long lalang grass beside the path; how
he was within ten yards of it before
he saw it; how then it rose and looked
at him: how it yawned at him. how it
then walked slowly across the path in
front of him and then stopped and
looked at him, again yawning, and how
it then deliberately walked away into
the forest, whose depths finally hid it
from view.
"Some one asked the Frenchman
whether it was a big tiger. He an
swered: Well. messieurs, cannot say
if he is a big tiger. My eyes see that
he is big. but | cannot say how big |
see him to be, and if | say how big it
is perhaps that | tell you lie. But I
can tell you. messieurs, how big | feel
him to be, and | can tell you the truth
When he is standing there in front of
me l tell you that | feel he is not less
than thirty feet high Exchange.

INDIAN GIRLS AMBITION.

She Studies Law to Champion Cause
Of Her Race In Courts.
To be the first Indian woman to
study law is the ambition of Miss Lau.
"a M. Cornelius, who is now in Los
Angeles, Cal, getting ready to enter
the law department Of Stanford uni
versity, says special dispatch from
Los Angeles to the Chicago Inter
Ocean. With that end in view, she has
resigned her position as a teacher in
the Sherman Indian school
She is the Oneida girl who, when the
Warmers ranch Indians would have
risen in insurrection against the order
for their removal, went among them, G
cultured woman Of the world, and led
them, peaceably and sadly, to the home
Of their exile
With true Indian hatred Of noto-
riety, she insists that she Is studying
law for no other purpose than to learn
something. But to her inner circle Of
friends she has confided a heroic pur-
pose in taking up Blackstone.
She wants to learn law in order that
she may go from tribe to tribe teaching
her pathetic people their rights under
the white mans law and championing
their cause In the courts and at Wash
ingtOn.

ployed are failures in that they permit
too much foreign matter to be carried
into the cistern to decay and become
filthy
So from knowledge gained from ac-
tual experience l decided that the
proper thing would be to keep the
dirt out of the cistern, where it can
be removed; to have a filter that can
be renewed easily and without dis
turbing the water in the cistern. So
/ made an experiment which has
proved success. In digging a els
tern dig deep in the ground and arch
well underground, closing in arch to
receive two foot sewer tile to form
neck, which can easily be closed
against insects and toads. By the side
of the big cistern dig a little filtering
cistern, one that will hold from twelve
to fifteen barrels. Wall, arch and ce-
ment same as large cistern, except i'll
the center of the bottom, which should
be slightly basin shaped; dig and &C.
ment a hole large enough and deep
enough to receive a bucket that will
the bottom of the bucket perforated
with small holes. Have a strong bail
to the bucket by which to lift it out
Have a strong 1ange around the out
side close to the top as can be to rest
tight on the bottom of filtering cistern
around the top of the hole Can make
water tight by resting fiange on pack
ing If bucket is not good and strong
it will be well to place rest under the
bottom, as there will be a very heavy
pressure on it when the filtering els
tern is full From the bottom of the
hole under the bucket connect filter
with cistern by means of a three inch
sewer tile thoroughly cemented in.
Fill the bucket with pounded brick,
charcoal or slate packed in clean wash
ed sand; it can be made to run through
very slowly, thoroughly straining the
water. After packing bucket and be-
fore setting it in hole run water
through to wash all sediment out.

A MAN OF LETTERS.
Rare Brevity md Beauty of LincOln's
More Notable Addresses,

More Notable Addresses.
Nothing would have amazed Mr.
Lincoln more than to hear himself
called man of letters, and yet it
would be hard to find in all literature
anything to excel the brevity and beau
ty of his address at Gettysburg or the
lofty grandeur of his second inaugural
In Europe his style has been called a
model for the study and imitation Of
princes, while in our own country
many of his phrases have already pass
ed into the daily speech of mankind.
His gift of putting things simply and
clearly was partly the habit of his own
clear mind and partly the result of the
training he gave himself in days Of
boyish poverty, when paper and ink
were luXuries almost beyond his reach
and the words he wished to set down
must be the best words and the clear
est and shortest to express the ideas
he had in view. This training of
thought before expression, of knowing
exactly what he wished to say before
saying it, stood him in good stead all
his life, but only the mind Of great
man with a lofty soul and a poets
vision, one who had suffered deeply
and felt keenly, who carried the bur
den of nation on his heart, whose
sympathies were as broad and whose
kindness was as great as his moral
purpose was strong and firm, could
have written the Deep forceful con-
vincing words that fell from his pen
in the later years of his life. 1t was
the life he lived, the noble aim that
upheld him, as we'll as the genius with
which he was born, that made him one
of the greatest writer's of our time

AFTER HARVEST.
Smportance, Of Saving Nitrogen In

Importance of Saving Nitrogen I'm
the Soil.
One thing we feel inclined to talk
about every year is the mistake of let
ting cOrnfields or other cultivated
ground remain bare through the fall
and winter. A considerable loss of
nitrogen results from this practice.
After the summer crop is taken off the
processes of nitrifcation go on in the
soil, especially if stable manure has
been used Notification means the
process by which nitrogen is made
soluble or available. When made over
into this form it is quite easily wash

TESLA'S PLAN TO WIRE MARS
Electrician Designing an Oscillator
to Bring Planets Near Us.


to Bring Planets Near Us.
Hello, Marsr'
Hello, Venus! Is that you?"
This is what Nikola Tesla says is
possible in the near future.
He announces In the Electrical World
and Engineer that he is designing an
oscillator with a maximum activity Of
100000 horsepower with which he
can telephone or telegraph to Mars or
Venus.
And this machine ] am building"
says Mr.. Tesla, lis but a play thing,
just enough TO throw this planet into
feeble tremors by sign and word-to
telegraph and to telephone"
He declares he is designing an os-
cillator which will drive through the
earth current of 1OO,OO0,OOO volts and
deliver energy at the rate of 100000
600 horsepower hundred falls OF
Niagara combined in one-striking the
universe with blows, blows that will
wake from their slumber the sleepiest
electricians, if there be ally, on Venus
or Mars
TT is not a dream; it is a simple fact
Of scientific electrical engineering, only
expensive-blind, faint hearted, doubt
ing world"
Mr. Tesla also announces that he has
invented ''telantomatic" torpedo
which can be directed at will from a
distance much greater than the range
Of the largest gun with unerring pre-
cision upon the object to be destroyed.
"The operator will not need to set
the Internal engine or even know its
location, and the enemy will be unable
to interfere in the slightest with its
movements by any electrical MEANS"
says Mr.. Tesla.
One of these devil telantomata," he
says, will soon be constructed, and if
adopted by the great governments Of
the world it will stop the building Of
battleships and put forts out of bust
ness.
Mr.. Tesla says also he is at work on
designs for plant which is to transmit
10000 horsepower without wires.

Farm Cleaning.

The cleaning up of hedgerows Of
worthless bushes and dead or dying
trees, or trees that are worthless ex-
cepting as fuel, pays in improving the
socks of the farm if not in immediate
cash returns, and when this has been
done there will be- many other jobs
about the gates, fences and walls that
can be found by any one who is look
ing for them. Cutting down or dig
ging of weeds around the buildings
and the edges of cultivated fields helps
much to remove the neglected and
abandoned farm" appearance of a
place and gives it an up to date look
that makes it more pleasant to occupy
as well as more valuable If it is put
ON the market.-American Cultivator
