The wsader. of Smelling

James Mitchell, who died in or about
1888 in the county of Marin, in Scot
land, and was born blind on Nov. II,
1895, recognized, says the World of
Wonders, different persons by smell
ing. The famous Mr.. Boyle mentions a
blind man at Utrecht who could dis
tinguish different metals by the differ
ent odors, and Martials records the
case of a person named Mamurra who
could tell by smelling whether copper
was true Corinthian or not. Indian
travellers have recorded that certain
natives who habitually abstained from
animal food have sense of smelling
which Is 80 exquisitely delicate that
they can tell tsom which we'll vessel
of water has been obtained. 1t has
been related that by smell alone the
negroes Of the Antilles will detect the
footsteps of Frenchman from those
of negro. Marco Marcel has left an
account Of monk at Prague who could
tell by smelling anything given to him
who had last handled it. The guides
who accompany travellers in the route
from Aleppo to Babylon will tell by
smelling the desert sand how near they
are to the latter place.

Early Jewish Settlers of Newport.
Tho fret Ioxxrirh

The first Jewish sermon which was
preached in America and has been
published was delivered in the Newport
synagogue on May %, 1878, by Rabbi
Haydn Isaac Carregal. This was de-
livered in Spanish and was translated
into English. Carregal was a most In
teresting personality. He appears to
have come from Palestine and was on
terms of intimacy with Ezra Stiles, the
president of Yale college. The first
Jewish club Ia America was formed in
1761 at Newport, with a membership
limited to nine persons. Just before
the outbreak Of the Revolutionary war
the Jewish population Of Newport must
have numbered nearly 1000 souls. The
war dispersed the community, and it
never regained its Importance. The
Jews. for the most part, espoused the
colonial cause and lost the greater part
Of their property when the town was
captured by the British. A few return
ed to the city after the war, and In
1870 the congregation presented an ad-
dress to Washington on the occasion
Of his visit to the city. Abraham Touro
bequeathed fund to the city Of New
port to maintain the synagogue as we'll
as the cemetery. This fund is still in
existence, though no representatives Of
the original families now live in the
c1ty.-Jewish Encyclopedia.

The Folly Of Chanxe.

A California judge told the following
story: Montana Jack, highwayman
I prosecuted and convicted while was
district attorney, was great humor-
list. The day he received his sentence
the judge asked him whether he had
anything to say against sentence being
passed upon him. Jack admitted that
he had no protest to make, but that he
would like to say q few words to the
young men in the courtroom. Consent
was given, and Jack spoke as follows:
Boys, my advice to you is to stick
to whatever you are dom. Don't
change your occupation or you'll never
get along in the world Look at me.
l was a successful burglar for years,
never got caught and collared lots Of

A Bit of Australian Slang.

"Wallaby" Is an Australian slang
word, and it once puzzled an English
secretary Of state for the colonies, as it
might we'll puzzle any one but an Aus
tralian. This minister was once visited
by Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, and refer

Des Moines, Iowa.

DeS MONIES, Iowa.
With average temperature slightly
above the normal, and frequent showers,
the weather conditions during the past
week were about all that could be de-
sired for the growth of vegetation.
The heaviest rainfall occurred in Lyon
county, where the amount reported
was $50 inches. At numerous other
stations the amounts reported ranged
from to inches. In few localities
there was some damage caused by wind
and hail. Generally there is ample
moisture for present needs, and the
soil is in good condition for field work
and growth of crops. Very good pro-
gress has been made in cultivation of
corn, and a large acreage will be laid
by in extra good filth during the first
week in July. The bulk of the crop is
fully up to the normal in height, color
and stand. Haying is in progress, and
the late meadows show material i'm
provement from the effects of recent
showers. Oats, spring wheat and bar
ley are filing we'll. A few reports of
damage by rust have come from north
ern districts. Pastures are much i'm
proved, and the minor crops are doing
we'll. Apples and small fruit are about
as previously reported.

Saturday night and yesterday in suffi-

foodstuffs brought into the general

San Francisco But Memory.
San Francisco is but a memory. 1t
is hopeless to attempt to describe the
conditions which exist here where but
a few hours ago thriving city nestled
on the shores Of the Pacific.
Every bank, every hotel, every bust
ness house, all the theaters, the muni-
cipal government buildings, the school
houses, churches, libraries, art
temples, newspaper offices, railway
depots and shipping piers have been
wiped out of existence as though a
scourge had passed over the land.
Rich and poor have suffered alike.
Fortunes Wiped Out.
Fortunes have been wiped out.
The palaces of the rich, together
with the novels of the poor, have alike
succumbed, and to-day San Francisco
may be likened to a broad stretch of
land Offering a fair site for city
which the early settlers in the days OF
the forty-niners beheld when the first
rude hut was thrown up on the site OF
the metropolis of the Pacific coast.
Back to that point must the people
of San Francisco return, and such is
the spirit Of the people here that, with
the smoke still lifting lazily from the
ruins, as though the demon was
