A Richmond (va.) Judge tells story
which illustrates the difficulty met with
In trying to stop the carrying Of pis-
tolls.
A tough youth was brought before
the Judge, charged with firing re-
volver In the street. The testimony
In the case was to the effect that the
young hoodlum had filled himself with
whisky and had discharged his weapon
In q crowded street.
Twenty dollars and COSTS" said the
magistrate.
But your honor" interposed counsel
for the prisoner, my client did not hit
anybody"

Twenty dollars and COSTS" repeat

angel"
And the riotous fellow went to Jail,
not having the money to pay his fine.

Fearless Swimmers.

In the water the Hawaiians are alb
solutely fearless. As soon as they can
walk, little babies are taken to battle
in the sea, and in a very short time
they are able to swim like porpoises.
The author Of Hawaiian Yesterdays"
gives a reminiscence Of the courage Of
the natives.
Our party had arrived In Hilo Bay.
and we were all seated upon the plat
form of a big double canoe. padding
ashore from the schooner which lay out
In the harbor. A throng Of natives
lined the beach, waiting to welcome
their returning teachers.
Just as we were entering the surf
that rolled upon the sandy shore.
through some accident the canoes sud-
denly filed and sank. leaving US all
sitting half-submerged in the shallow
water. With u loud roar Of "Auwe"
(Oh and AlasI the assembled crowd
rushed an one man into the waves and
bore rs safely 10 land.
On one occasion, about the same date,
q coasting vessel was upset In a vio-
isnt sQuall between the islands Of Ha-
vail and Maui. Although the nearest
land was twenty miles distant. the ma.
tive crew and passengers boldly struck
out to swim ashore; and several of
them did come safe to land after a
night and day in the deep.
Among the survivors Of the wreck
was a poor woman who for several
hours swan with her husband upon
her back but the poor man died Of cold
and fatigue. and had to be abandoned
at last before the coast was reached.

II anything could add deeper shade
to the railway horror at Salisbury,
England, 1t would BE- the presentlments
that some Of the victims had Of their
approaching doom, such as were ex-
pressed by the Santeli family as they
parted with their friends at the wharf
in New York. What is the explanation
OF such experiencesi Almost every one
classes them with clairvoyancs and tel
epathy as simply inexplicable mysteries
and leaves them there. 1t Is only now
and then that any one Is philosophical
enough to take a more rational view Of
them, and that 10 that they are coinci-
dental. II everybody knew Of all the
cases In which presentiments Of death
had proved delusive no one would be
In the least astonished at those which
are realized. No doubt there are thou
sands Of the delusive kind to one that
proves correct. The wonder Is not that
one In many thousands are realized,
but that any are. The same is true Of
dreams, and a remarkable case Of pre-
sentiment by dreams occurred several
years ago In Connecticut. A woman
whose husband was a travelling aalea-
man dreamed three nights In succession
that he had been killed in a railroad
accident. and the fourth morning he
came homo in excellent health, having
met with no mishap whatever. 1t 30

papers, but 1t was only because 1t was
an extreme case. II all delusive pre-
sentiments were published In the same

fact that summer accidents are report

measure for the slight and transitory
impression they make on the public
mind. The old meaning Of the word

vented. still clings to 1t. Most OF those
who read these words may hold that

justified In calling them "dispensations

Cd by the Creator for some good but in

to definite. material and usually pre-
ventable causes. The Creator does not
deliberately decree that certain canoe

man and drown him, but He does es-
tablish immutabls laws which the canoe

Novel Industry Pursued By an In

Brown County, Indiana, II following q
strange occupation, and declares that
there is more money in 1t when time
and trouble are taken into corlsidera-

museums to be mounted. He recently
sold two Of the oldest that he had on
hand, one having nine and the other,
eight rattles, for $3.50 and 500. re-
spectively.
Fleener has a cabin Of two rooms In
the hills Of Brown County, and has
gone into the rattlesnake industry in a
systematic way. He has constructed
a wall Of cement and stone around the
stone chimney of his cabin, making a
chamber about 8 by 8 feet, and this IL
kept warm In the winter by a constant
fire In the fireplace in the cabin. In
this den he keeps the snakes for breed
ing and feeds them regularly through
the winter. He says he made a study
Of the habits of timber rattlers for
years and found that they were always
more prolific after a warm winter than
after one that was exceedingly cold.
He constructed the den around the out.
side Of the chimney on the theory that

ly back Of the fire always warm would
furnish ample heat for the snakes and
with proper feeding he would b. able
to increase the propagation indefinitely.
He accounts for the scarcity Of the
species known as timber rattlers by the
increasing cold winters of the West,
and says that his experience In keeping
the reptiles In a warm place during
winter justif1es the theory upon which
