ANARCHIST CONGRESS. 1,
Foes of All Existing Government
 Meet In Amsterdam.


 AMSTERDAM, Aug 26. -- Emma Goldman. the American anarchist told the anarchist congress at its opening that she brought cordial greetings from all the anarchists in the United States from San Francisco to New York. She declared the liberty of. the masses existed only on paper. She fervently hoped the congress would devise an international organization os anarchists, and said there was nothing to hope for from the Social Democrats. All the speakers criticised the peace conference at The Hague and the in ternational Socialist cong -ess at Stutt- gart. describing the first. as merely an assembly for the organization of war and declaring that the latter had passed resolutions containing thou sands of words without arriving at definite conclusion on any subject. About three hundred delegates were present, representing the United States, Great Britain, Spain, Italy, France. Russia, Germany, Belgium, Bohemia, Switzerland and Servia.

We have never heard why they perpetraIe such a trick, but we surmise they wish to lLfer that the receiver is thick skinned or else is possessed of quite a few yellow streaks. We heard during the past week that a certain saloon keeper who is a high up and up politician was presented with very yellow large lemon, and he immediately made haste to his "wine room" made what's known as a "whiskey sour" got on the outside of it in real political style, smaeSed his lips and then told the bartender how he had been presented with the nice large lemon, when the latter ex- plained It's needless to say his happiness was turned to indignation and vengeance was his as he flew out the door, and when he meets the messenger t will go hard with him If he doesn't tell who sent that vel low token.

AN INNOCENT HOAX.
Canon MscColI's Letters, For Which
olsdstons Got Credit.

1iaostoHe aot SFeuU.
Me Iltes Canon MacColl was a
tiny man with a tiny voice, get he
was regarded as giant among CON
troyersialists, and his voice reached
to Europe. His voice proceeded
from behind a mask, which men
thought concealed the features of a
greater man. His letters to the
Times denouncing Germany in gen
eral and Bismarck in particular
over the Franco Prussian war were
signed Scrutator. They were read
with the closest attention, for ev-
eryboSy outside Printing House
square seems to have believed that
they were the letters of Gladstone.
In this belief European statesmen
poured missives upon the author Of
the letters, letting light into the
strangest official secrets and treat
ing him with the profoundest def
erence. The letters were sent to
the office of the Times, and great
was the enjoyment of the canon as
he read them.
Possibly Gladstone did not know
that he was regarded as the author
of the letters. Be that as it may,
he was as much in the dark as the
rest of the world. Max Muller was
among those most deceived and in
one of his letters during the contro-
versy quantity apologized for any
seeming deficiency in his argument,
pleading that, while he used "only
wooden sword" he was called
upon to withstand in argument
zone of the most powerful athletes
of our time" one who welded the
very brand Excalibur." The most
powerful athlete" whom Muller had
in mind was, of course, Gladstone.
The German emperor was as effec-
lively puzzled and caused letter to
be written suggesting that the time
had come when the writer might
raise his visor and reveal his iden-
tity. The canon still lay low, en-
iov;ng the fun. Bismarck had con-
templated suing the author of the
letters for libel, but when he was
eventually let into the secret anger
had disappeared, and he sent him
cordial invitation to Friedrichsruh.

Inst 2 niHnrsnoa In Sound.

The difference between English
and American methods of pronunci-
alton often produces miSunder-
standing. The other day an Eng
lishman who had just arrived here
went to the Waldorf-Astoria. He
vas bit lost for a minute just
where to find the register book, the
Waldorf office being divided into
several departments, one for the
Conformation bureau" another for
"letters" and so on. The English
man finally stopped at one of the
departments and inquired whether
itwas the desk of the hotel "clark."
"No," was the reply; "this is the
Waldorf.Astoria hotel" Through
saying "clark" instead of "clerk"
the young man at the desk had TAX
en- the Englishman to mean Hotel
Clark.-New York Times.

rruaney INDICATED.

An old gentleman upon seeing a
small boy playing in the streets and
remembering that the school term
had begun a short time previous
thought it his duty to take the
youngster to task for being absent
from school. Approaching the boy,
he inquired:
"My son, how is it you are not at
school instead Of idling in the
streets -"
Hesitating a moment, the lad re-
piled:
"Well, pap's out of work, mas
sick, brother Johnnie got his arm
broke, the baby's gettin' teeth, |
amt got no shoes and, besides that,
there amt no school today" -

Birds Nest of Five Tons,

The largest birds nests are to be
found in Australia. The Austria
liam jungle fowl build for nests
great mounds Is feet in height and
1875 to $50 feet in circumference.
Grass, leaves and other vegetable
matter are used in the construction
of the nests, which easily weigh a
ton. The Australian brush turkeys,
working in colonies, build pyramidal
nests even larger. One of these
nests on being removed filed seven
carts, and its total weight was five
tons.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Clever at Catching Their Finny Prey
and Dainty In Eating II.

Hunters and trappers have so de-
pleted fur bearing animals that few
are left who catch and eat fish, and
it is fortunate the otter is now COM
paratiyely scarce in our northeast
ern states, for he is a terrible and
persevering foe to fish. He is so
dainty that he will frequently kill
teveral large fish in day, devour-
ing only those portions which best
please his palate, leaving the re-
mainder on the water side to be-
come the prey Of other fish loving
creatures.
For the pursuit of his fnny prey
the otter is admirably adapted by
nature. The body-fs 1.-THE and SER
pentine, the feet are furnished with
a broad web that connects the toes,
which are of infinite service in pro-
polling the animal through the wa
ter; the tail is long, broad and fiat,
and the short, powerful legs are so
loosely jointed that it can turn
them in almost any direction. The
hair of the body is of two kinds
one a close, fine, soft fur, which
lies next to the skin, protecting it
from extreme heat or cold, and the
other composed of long, shining,
coarse hair, which permits the ami
NAL to glide easily through water.
The teeth are sharp and powerful,
preventing the slippery prey from
escaping, so that the quick and
wary fish fall easy victims to the
otter's superior aquatic powers. So
easily does it glide into the water
scarcely a ripple is seen to mark
the time and place of its entrance,
and on emerging upon the shore its
body is withdrawn from the stream
with the same noiseless ease.
When the otter is engaged in eat
ing the fish captured, it holds the
slippery prey between its forepaws
and begins with the back of the
neck, eating away the fine, faky
meat of the shoulders and rejecting
the head, tail and other parts. The
average daily food is, about four
fish, weighing two or three pounds,
not necessarily all trout, but trout
and young salmon are preferred to
other coarse fish.-Louis Rhead in

Common Spiders.

Spiders are more varied and plen-
tiful than is commonly supposed.
In almost every locality in the coun-
try at least 300 or 400 species may
be collected In summer spiders
abound on all kinds of plants, from
grass to trees. 1t is only when the
webs are covered with dew that they
become especially conspicuous. The
webs are then no more plentiful,
but | often hear the question asked
on dewy mornings or foggy days,
"What makes so many more cob
webs than usual today" The col
letting moisture makes especially
noticeable the fiat webs on the
grass. These are made by MEM
befs Of the agalenidae family of
spiders. Each has a noticeable tube
at one side in which the spider lives.

TIE Wrong Bird.

A professional rat catcher in a
town Of northern Pennsylvania be-
ing recently called to another place
intrusted number of ferrets to the
care of a neighbor.
Upon his return he found, to his
disgust, that owing to the careless
nessrof the neighbor several ferrets
had escaped from custody. The rat
catcher thereupon proceeded to
bring claim against the caretaker.
The magistrate before whom the
suit for damages was brought dis
missed the case.
'No doubt" said he to the care
taker, "you were wrong to leave the
doors of the cages open; but, on the
other hand,' added he, turning to
the rat catcher, "you were wrong
too. Why didn't you clip the wings
Of the ferrets %-Harper's Maya

Detecting Crime In Ethiopia.

The Ethiopian method of detect
ing crime is quick and effective and
has the great advantage of always
catching some one. A priest is call
ed, and by his exhortation, prayers,
sorceries and drugs youth is sent
to sleep with the command to
dream. The person he dreams of is
the criminal. No further proof is
sought or needed. The sanction of
the church is quite enough. If by
chance the boy fails to dream, he
is promptly put to sleep again by
the same process until he does so
that he usually manages the affair

An Oriental Story,

There is an oriental story Of two
brothers, Ahmed and Omar. Both
wished to perform deed whose
memory should not fail, but which
might sound their name and praises.
Omar, with wedge and rope, lifted
an obelisk on its base, carving its
form in beautiful devices and sculp-
turing mai.v a strange inscription
on its sides. He set it in the hot
desert to cope with its gales. All
med, with deeper wisdom and truer
though saddor heart, dug a well to
cheer the sandy waste and planted
about it tall date palms to make
cool shade for the thirsty pilgrim
and to shake down fruits for his
hunger
