Export Explains Why Clocks Fall to
Strike Together.

A man in New York whose business
is clock winding, which includes also
the regulating and cleaning Of the
family timepieces in his charge. ex-
planned the other day why 1t Is hard
to have q number Of clocks strike to-
gether.
you see," he said, some clocks are
arranged to strike half minute be-
fore the hour, some a quarter Of a
minute before, others few seconds
after, and 80 on. Now II regulate
them to strike at the same instant
they will not be in agreement in point
of actual time, and that is really a
more important consideration. or
course, II there are a great many
clocks In the house 1t is likely that
several will happen to strike together.
For instance, one house on my route
has 20 clocks that look after. or
these, five or six strike in unison and
the others all within minute, except
ing one. have orders to keep 10
of the clocks at exactly the correct
time, but the little jeweled timepiece
in the bedroom of the mistress OF the
house Is to be kept always three min
utes fast l suppose she has some
special reason for that
mo. don't get rich at my business,
but make living at 1t. The house
just spoke Of is an especially profit
able one, of course, having so many
clocks. They pay me 500 year for
my attendance there, which Is given
weekly, as 1t Is to all the places

ROYALTY FORCED UPON THEM.
RoumanIan Monarchs Had No Desire
for Regal Honors.

Neither King Carol OF Roumania nor
his queen, known in the world OF liter
sture as Carmen Sylvia, had any de-
sire for regal honors, and when the as
sassination of Gar Alexander in 1881
forced them on Roumania's unhappy
throne, they went protestingly. Carol
1nally consented to be king, but de-
clared he would never sit upon a
throne nor wear crown.
The chamber and senate at Buchar-
est insisted, declaring the people want
ed and had a right to expect these
symbols Of royalty. Carol protested
that a coronation ceremony would
make himself and his wife ridiculous,
like actors in play" but was forced
to yield and get himself a crown.
But no headgear Of silks and pre-
cious stones for him. He sent to the
arsenal for one Of the cannon captured
from the Turks, ordered that it be
melted down and from its steel a
crown be made, "in remembrance OF
the brave Roumanian blood shed for
liberty" And with this he was
crowned.
Carmen Sylvia said Of her husbands
crown: mo crown, surely, ever spoke
as this one spoke in days gone by,
when it roared and thundered night
and day, and reeked with smoke and
fame"

"You see." was the reply. 'the

WATCHED "pop" STRIKE OUT.
Little Chap Had No Great Faith In
His Fathers Powers.

The little chap who was dancing up
and down beside his mother at the
ball game showed an unusual knowl-
edge OF the game for boy SO small.
and he attracted the attention of every
one around. Il guess he'll walk" he'd
say judiciously when three balls had
been called. and the crowd listened
with wonder at such talk from a boy
Of only six. Safe. safe," he'd yell.
before any of the men around him
could open their months. and the
crowds wonder increased, until 1t de-
veloped that he was the son Of one Of
the players on the opposing team.
(which man is his father" every
one wondered. when the little fellow
yelled suddenly as a man went in to
bat: There, there he Is, mamma:
now watch pop strike out" In vain
his mother tried to hush him, but the
little man continued to shout know
ingly: Now watch pop strike out"
The crowd watched eagerly and as
"one strike" and then two strikes"
were called. 1t laughed uproariously.
while mammals face grew redder and
redder. When the third strike was
called the little chaps voice rang out
triumphantly: Il knew pop would
strike out" and while the crowd
howled with glee mamma discovered
It was time to take her son home.

cess in every particular. A large crowd
was present and everyone had a fine
time dancing and eating. The members
certainly showed their generosity and
insisted that everyone should eat their
fill. Before the big doings that night
meeting was held and report of the
condition of the company read which
was satisfactory in every respect. A
fine speech was delivered by the mayor
also.
Sol James and family moved his FAM

kashaaria.

There are few places in the world
SO difficult to get at as Kashgaria.
Though 1t lies in Chinese territory the
journey from Pekin occupies no less
than six months. From India cara
vans take two months. having to Cross
meanwhile the three highest mountain
ranges in the world by way Of several
passes measuring $4,000 feet above
sea level.
Then from the tailend Of the Rus
sian railway system in Central Asia
one may reach Kashgar In three
weeks by several routes. all involving
the transit Of difficult and storm
swept passes.
Kashgaria is said to cover an area
OF $4,000 square miles-a statement
that has little interest until consid-
cred in relation to the proportion
which is cultivated by man. 1t is
startling to relate that human en-.
deavor has been capable of rendering
fertile little more than hundredth
part and that ninety-nine hundredths
Of 1t is irredeemable desert.

PLEASURES OF FARM LIFE.
Delightful Occupation for One Whe
Loves His Work.

1t is the farmers privilege to get as
much pleasure do not say leisure
out of life as any one, II he loves his
work, writes Jared Van Wagenen in
the Country Gentleman. have found
much satisfaction in seeing what l
could put into the farm in the way OF
improvement of the buildings, in
creasing the fertility Of the soil and
growing more abundant crops each
year. The trees l have planted seem
like old friends to me. To-day have
the pleasure OF seeing them bowed
down beneath their load Of fruit.
All these things have a value that
cannot be estimated in dollars and
cents. Yet we must get more cash
out of our farms than we put into
them or they will not be ours long.
We have many of the conveniences
of the city home and good deal purer
air, sounder sleep and better digestion.
1 can see no good reason why should
desire to be anything but farmer or
cease to recommend it to others Of like
mind.
Iwould not have any reader imagine
for a moment that, as a family. we
have not led the strenuous life or that
we have felt 1t any hardship to do so
Rather / may say that we have en-
ioyed 1t.

Okla, saw q remarkable sight through
the glass Of his transit instrument
while RUNNING survey on Sand
creek, Is or 16 miles northeast OF
Pawhuska, in the Usage Indian reser-
vation, recently. The country at that
place is broken and indented with
canyons.
The surveyor had turned his instru
ment to see the fagman behind him
The fiagman was seen plainly, but be
yond the fiagman about 300 yards was
something that caused the surveyor tc
gasp in astonishment. A large panther
at the edge Of small clearing was
gazing intently at the surveyors
Through the glass the panther's every
movement could be clearly seen. The
surveyors shouted at the beast, which
quickly ran into the timber.
