THE PATCH TOLD THE TALE.

X New Englander recently had occa- sion to engage a gardener. one morn ing two applicants appearel-one a de- cidedly decent looking man and the other of much less prepossessing ap- pearance and manner.
 After very little hesitation the man of the house chose the latter applicant
 A friesd who was present evidenced surprise at the selection, asking:
 Has that man worked for you be- fore?"
 No" replied the other; 'in fact. l never saw either of them until to- day.
 Then why did you choose the shor- ter man? The other had much better face
 Face" exclaimed the proprietor of the place. in disgust. Let me tell you that when you pick out gardener you want to go by his overalls. If they're patched on the knees you want him. If the patch is on the seat of his trou- sers you don't.'-Success.

THE WELCOME MILESTONE.

In a walking trip a milestone along the way is the most companionable fellow in the world; your spirits rise as you near him as though you Were about to greet a human friend. and they keep almost consistently on this high level till his brother a mile dis tant advances to meet you. And when you overlook one of this friendly com pany because of an encroaching bank or screening boughs. his neighbor fur ther on comes 10 you doubly welcome. At the latter end of this passage in the journey your spirits flag a trifle as though oppressed by a sense of de- sertion. Yod may even scowl at the overhanging bank which is more than party to this concealment. These worthy persons who attend to the roads should see to it that every mile- stone within their province stands out frankly from its leafy back ground. Observance of this, however. would rob the wayfarer of that leap of the heart which is his when the stone tells the story of two miles done rather than one. For however much the landscape and the minute world at his feet may claim the footfarers' admir- ation. he is still keenly alive to the virtue of decent distances covered in his days journey.-The Travel Mag azine.

A BAD SAIlOR.-Antonio Salazar. a sailor from Southern California. blew into port and cast anchor in the Red light harbor. He crossed the gang plank and entered the saloon and pro ceeded to ship a cargo of liquor. About the same time he met up with mis- sionary, Jose Martinez. whom he though he would like to have along with his liquor. Jose objected to this event and a fight ensued. and when the mutiny was quelled Jose had been
 jabbed in the wrist with a knife and was shedding drops of blood. The sailor was lowed up to Justice Kyle's court yesterday and dOcketed to appear on Monday at D. m. to show cause why he should not be put in dry dock for some month to come. MT. and Mrs. Barry. who were the day before arrested. the latter charged with as sault. the former with disturbance of the peace. were also tried yesterday. It all happened near Glendale where neighborly quarrel over fence question resulted in one of the Pen dergast boys being slammed on the head with a big stick by Mrs. Barry and his life being threatened by MT. Barry. The matter was adjusted by l Mrs. Barry paying the costs of the
 case, and MT. Barry for his part of the | fracus was placed under a bond of s200 to keep the peace. which ought | to hold him quiet for while.

An American on a visit to London took bus to the city every morning, where he had business to do with an firm. On the first journey he noticed that on arriving at a certain corner the driver took out his big silver watch, dangled it to and fro a few times. and winked jovially at an individual who stood at the door of shop.
 Why do you do that?" the Ameri- can asked.

GIRL ART STUDENTS.

What woman art student will put up with in material discomfort while in Paris is almost unbelievable. She pays francs day for very poor board and lodging in a socalled mex pensive quarter. or she lodges herself in an attic for B francs and feeds at students restaurants where the wine is blue" and the meat too tough to be other than swallowed in Jumps. She heats her bath water over a spirit lamp and goes to bed in the evenings to save a fire. If she gets ill her chances of having good medical at tendance are poor unless she Is left to the care of her Trinity Lodge. the American home. and more often than not she is left to the cae of her kindly but casual Yellow students. who '1ook in' on their way to and from the stu dios. Such an existence is surely not likely to produce sound work any more than it is likely to promote good health.-Pall Mall Gazette.

C. Parker WoOdbury, who gambols. and gambOls daily in Wall Street. will not under the automatic law throw any stones in the future. People who live in glass houses should not in dulge in this pastime. according to the saying. The saying itself is ancient. but so far as can be discovered it has been up to now without application since nobody really lived in a glass house. That. however is just what Mir Woodbury is going to do. and wheth- or not the qualification is welcome. he will probably be the first person in history to whom the proverb will ap- ply literally. Arrangements have just been completed for the erection of MT. Woodbury's glass house on Long Island. IL is to be constructed entire ly of glass blocks twelve inches long and ten inches thick. which though translucent. will not be transparent. so that the owner will not be visible and will not according to the modern ap- plication have to pull down the shades. The chief cause for the construction of this curious house is desire for sun light. which will come in on all sides through the glass blocks. At night when lighted by electricity. it will be glowing mass which. aside from the curiosity it will arouse. should prove a shining mark for all the insectivor- ous life that is attracted by light. Ac- cordins to the architects report. all stones will be removed from the prem ises

THE GIGANTIC TASK

New York. July I5.-(Special cor respondence of The Republican, - New York's Public Utilities Commis- sion. one of the most characteristic results of Governor Hughes admins traitor. which will have for its simple task the strengthening out of New York's transportation. lighting and all other matters affecting public utilities, at least does not intend to be mere political board where fat salaries will be drawn and no work done. In the very first days of its existence 1t has jumped into the thick of the fray by tackling the most difficult job within its jurisdiction. having already set itself the mighty task of strengthening out the Brooklyn Bridge transportation service and eliminating its life imperil- ing crushes IL could hardly have picked any task more difficult, nor one which if it is solved, will render the commission more popular. for If It succeeds in this task. even though it never does anything else, New York CTS will feel that it has justified its creation. No less thcn half a million people cross the bridge each way morning and night, during the rush hours and for women and children at that time to be in the rush is literally to endanger their lives. It is not by any means without danger for men either Indeed it is reported that the three commissioners who went there together for information on the scene of action bad al! their friends fare well and made all their wills before starting. one feature in which the commissioners find some reason for hope. however, is the fact that the women of New York are behind them. They have already organized a cam paign which will result in improving bridge conditions. making their first recommendation to the city for ascal- atOrs or moving stairways to handle the crowd more quickly and to relieve them of the very lreal liability to in suit to which they are now subjected in the jostling throngs. Meanwhile it is up to the Utilities Commission with New York watching and willing to help it.

It has remained for one Theodore Demetrius Smith, hitherto unkonvn to fame, though of undoubted imagina- ton, to prick the bubble of war talk so far as Japan is concerned. MT. Smith of the resounding coGnomens. who ekes out a precarious living by dealing in old iron on the East Side, has sprung into notice this week through his announcement based on his knowledge of the iron and steel trade. that the whole talk of war was due to the steel trust. If war seems likely, according to his story. battle ships will be in demand. For these ships, the steel trust would furnish the material. What could be more likely than that the octopus should be look ing to increased sales by fermenting war talk? MT. Smith without strain ing his imagination at all, declares that this is the secret of the whole sit uation, and his theory is at least borne out in part by the luncheon given at the Hotel Astor this week by the Jap an Society of America to Admiral Mamamoto. at which, with distinguish ed representatives of Japan and the United States present, the idea of war between the two countries was de- plored on both sides and labeled fool ish. MT. Smith however. continues to pursue the even tenor of his way, ad- mitting partly on account of his first name. and partly on account of his wonderful ability in getting at the cause of the present war talk. to say nothing of his knowledge of trusts, particularly the steel and iron monster,

be called the battles that eccur in
the blood of a fever patient between
nc xfous and benign heterogeneous
was presented at a recent meeting Of
the Royal Microseopical society.
The patient In this case was suf-
fering from malarial fever. The OBJ
servations were made at intervals of
a few minutes during period of five
hours. The defenders of the patients
life were a kind of leucocytes, which
destroyed the malarial parasites.
A leucocyte would engulf a para
site, which would then be seen under
going a process of disintegratton IN
side the leucecytc. and only the pig
ment granules were left. Afterward
other leucocytes would approach and
absorb even these granules.-=Ex.
