THE CHAMPAGNE MAKER.

Why His Face Is Always Decorated
 With Scars.
 The Frenchman's face was hack4d and notched.
 Have you been a duelist?" one asked.
 "No, no,'' the man replied q have been a champagne maker" He touch ed his face. 'These honorable nicks," he said, "are champagne scars.
 Champagne scars" he went on," dec. crate the visages of all the workers in the underground champagne mills Of Rheims. They are caused by the burst ing of the bottles. About one bottle of champagne in every ten bursts.
 "There are miles and miles Of cham pagne caves in Rheims, caves cut in the solid limestone rock, where, in constant temperature of 45 degrees, millions of bottles of wine refine and ripen
 "The workers down there smell noth- ing but champagne all day long, cham pagne escaping from burst bottles, and as the turner's move along the racks each turns 35,OO0 bottles daily-they are continually saluted with explosions Bang! And the glass splinters fly, and a little fountain of champagne per fumes the damp air.
 "Day after day each bottle must be turned, turned fifty times altogether, till the sediment in it has all mounted up and concentrated itself around the cork. Then the corkers remove the corks, let the sediment thickened wine In the neck of the bottle blow off and skillfully replace the cork again.
 'The corkers' and turner's work is dangerous. These men are nearly all scared like me."-Kansas City Inde- pendent.

WAYS OF. PENGUlNS.
These Birds Lay Out Home Sites and
 Build Cities.

buIId C1f1eS.
 Pengu1ns mostly spend their lives on the water, but when, during the breed Ing season, they are obliged to seek the shore they establish cities, many acres often being laid out in squares, composed of what might be called streets, running at right angles. The birds not only lay out their city after picking up all the loose stones till the whole place is as smooth as a board floor, but they take possession in cou- ples, each pair selecting home site not to build a nest, but merely to se- cure a particular spot on the bare ground.
 The hen lays one egg, and only one, and during the time of incubation the male bird brings her food from the sea or sits on the egg awhile himself if she wants to go out and take a swim. The lady penguins grow so fat and sleek under the good care of their faithful mates that they are eagerly hunted at the breeding season.
 The old birds are tough and fshy but the tender young matrons are in great demand, both for their oil and flesh. Even the eggs have an oily and ishy flavor and taste as hens eggs might if cooked in paraff1n. The pen guin has wings, like other birds, but they are altogether too short to fly with, though they assist him some what in waddling over the ground Cornhill Magazine.

Nature,s Perch CIamn.

Chickens and other birds roasting on a perch no bigger than a lead pencil never fall off. Do you know why?" said farmer
 ''The tendon of a roasting birds leg is so constructed that when the leg is bent at the knee the claws have to con- tract-can't open till the leg is straight ened out again.
 ''Thus chicken gets on it's perch, bends its knee to be comfortable and with that bending locks itself, as with a key. to the wood. It can't fall off. Put chicken on your finger and then make it sit down. It's claws will clamp your finger tight and be unable to let go until the bird stands up again. Ma ture, very kindly, has so constructed roasting birds that the act of settling down clamps them to their perch"

CANNOT PAY INTEREST
Lack of Ready Money and the NeCeS- Sity of Work to be Done the
 Reason Given
Los Angeles Examiner

Los Angeles Examiner
 The bondholders of the California Development company are midway be- tween perplexity and panic, because, for the first time in it's ten years of ex- istence the corporation has failed to pay the semisannual bond interest.
 On the first day of this month $l5,- 900 was due the thirty holders of bonds in this city. The officials of the company decided in the latter part of May that the interest could not be paid assigning as 9 reason the lack of ready money and the necessity for immediate repair of the damages done to the lands around Calexico by the recent overflow of the Colorado river
 The California Development com pany, of which Epes Randolph is presi dent and w. T. Heffernan secretary, owns about 6O,O0o acres near the Mexican line, enough water to cover 100000 acres in northern Mexico and an(additional supply of water to irrigate 25O,OOO acres in American territory. The extensVe canal system now brings in $l5O,OOo year.
 A number of the bondholders in Los Angeles have become alarmed at the action of the corporation in withholding the interest and may demand an in- vestigation. A. H. Heber. who was formerly the president and still is a heavy stockholder, said yesterday:
 "I am not surprised that inquiry has been made about the company's failure 10 make payments at this time. l was informed several days ago that the semi-annual interest would not be paid. My opinion is that the company will have to be reorganized. The bond holders are not in any great danger, but there is no certainty about the time when the money will be paid. There has been altogether too mnch defective engineering and some small jealousies have contributed to retard the com pany's success. H:wever, all the diff faculties may be adjusted in a short time"

SheIIey'S Heart.

A we'll known and very prominent English family are the possessors of a remarkable relic in the shape of a hu- man heart preserved in jar of alco- hol. It appears that Shelley, the poet, feared that there was chance of be- ing buried alive. To guard against any such a contingency he left direc- uons that his heart should be removed immediately after death. The queer relic may still be seen by any one who visits Bascombe manor, Bournemouth, England.

HOW COQUELIN'S WIT WON
By an Eloquent Illustration of Silence He Secured a Much Desired Club
 Membership.

One of the most famous of the Quar- tier Latin clubs in Paris is tho one which is called The Sub Rosa" and the most famous ot it's members is the great actor Coquelin. pere. but the story of his election has not yet been told in print. writes Warwick James Price. in Success Magazine.
 He was present one night at the clubs late supper a weekly feast, and. having heard that there was va cancy in the roll, applied for member ship Now the only rules of the Sub Rosa" men are: Think much. write little Be as silent as you can" The presiding officer, with this last rule in mind answered the applicant by pac- ing before him a tumbler filled so full of water that another drop would have caused it to run over Coquelin un- derstood. He had evidently been mis- informed about a vacancy. the club membership was obviously full.
 Over the table was suspended rose, the club emblem. While the glass still stood before him Coquelin broke a petal from the flower, and laid 1t SO gently on the water that not single drop escaped A silent man could join and make no trouble.
 Around the table ran ripple of smiles and little handclaps and mods of approval, and then. as If of one ac- cord, all began making bread balls. Then a cup was passed from hand to hand, and each deposited his ballot" In it-and all were found to be round; not one had been pressed fiat in sign of disapprovsl, So CoQuelin joined the Sub Rosa club.

] tionless. Gerald recognized an adYan- tage and was preparing to go into the matter more thoroughly when the door was opened
 What, all in the dark" came in cheerful tones from the doorway.
 "Mother!n cried Christine, Jumping mp. We did not expect you until to- morrow!"
 Mrs. Hartover lad not noticed Gerald in the darkness and for moment Christine, a little anxious about the situation, hesitated to introduce him. A flood of light fell on the two through the open door. Gerald stood in the shadow. rigid, his hands grip ping a chair back, staring wideeyed as at ghost
 He was watching Christine's mother.
 And all that evening he was en- veloped in dark cloud of silent meditation. He seemed to avoid Christine, and when he parted from MT. Hartover for the night told him that he wes very sorry that circum- stances compelled him to bring his visit to close on the following day.
 So the poet went back to town and Christine dWelt in the country She could forget; indeed. other matte Ge- eupied her attention so complete fzt she quite forgot. But he we1s .e55 among his friends and the sorro 0iui note walled louder through his verses Several days passed and still he hung about the door of his dream palace, fearful of entering, yet unable to stride boldly away. He could see Christine, picuuring in his mind her graceful and charming figure But there beside her was her mother. and in all likelihood, in after years, when his eyes must constantly dwell on her. she would be like her mother
 And her mother was the latest woman he had ever seen.
 On a bright February morning, about a week after he left the Hart overs. Gerald utterly wearied of the ceaseless wrangling ill his mind of T will and 'I won't and the mourn ful Wailing of T wish I could went out to find consolation. Knowing re- nunciation to be wisdom, yet clinging to folly, the idea had come to him that he would visit his frienu Felix. paint CT and misogynist.
 Felix. busy on masterpiece, greet ed him kindly. but without warmth. and went on with his painting.
 Gerald began to wander aimlessly about the studio Presently he stood before a picture resting on an easel in corner and looked long at it. Won- dering at a feeling of recognition of the face of the woman painted there.
 Who is this29 he asked, presently
 Felix looked up sharply. then turned To his work again.

 So good that I wouldn't part with it, retorted Felix. Christine Hart over called yesterday and l got if out
