Shows value OF H.r.d,,x.

A parliamentary candidate was being
heckled. One Of the questions had ref
erence to the religious denomination to
which he belonged.
WELL" he said, you asked me an
honest question and you shall have a
straightforward answer. My grand
mother was a Scotch woman-a rigid
Presbyterian"
Obvious disappointment was shown
in the faces of the audience, so the
candidate proceeded:
"My grandfather was English and
therefore a member of the Church of
England"
Still no enthusiasm, but rather the
reverse.
"My father. on the other hand, was
good Baptist" went on the desperate
candidate, who was still unrewarded
by applause. He grew anxious, so hur-
riedly added But my dear old moth
er, long since dead, was a Methodist" ("
Instantly all faces were radiant, SO

worth Willie trying to keep it on the

is quite sufficient to reduce an af-
fluent topknot to a billiard ball sur
face; therefore real benefaction for
mankind would be the enforcement Of
a mighty fashion rendering its loss tho
most admirable thing in life. No gen.

grees the world would adopt the idea

WHAT'S IN A NAME?

Many Names Preserved to Posterity
~ Trivial Cireunstances.
Many names, illustrisus and other
wise. have been rescued from oblivion
by comparatively trivial circumstances.
The story goes that Brougham, on
being rallied BY the Iron Duke as a
man whose name would go down to
posterity as 4 great lawyer, states
man, etc, but who would nevertheless
be best known by the name of the
carriage that had been christened af-
ter him, retorted that the dukes name
would no doubt be handed down to pos
terity as that of great general and
the hero Of hundred battles, but that
he would be best remembered by par
ticular kind Of boot named after him.
The cobbler who, after the Yelling
ton boot appeared, seized upon the idea
Of placing a Blucher boot upon the
market, made large fortune there
from.
Sailors will never let die Admiral
Yernon's nickname of "Old Grog" $50
called by reason Of the breeches he
wore, made of grogham, mixture of
silk and mohair), the name given by
them to the rum that he ordered to be
diluted with water. The name of an
other drink-negus-has survived from
the time Of Queen Anne, when it was
the favorite Of one Col. Negus. More
common than either, however, is the
name Sandwich" in memory of Lord
Sandwich, who invented it as a means
of taking a hasty lunch while engaged
In his duties at the admiralty office.
Certain towns and districts, too,
such as Xeres Oporto, Champagne
and Burgundy, are probably best
known through the productions named
after them; in fact, the two latter pro-
vinces ceased to exist after the sub
stitutions of departments for the old
Provinces before the days Of the French
revolution. Cayenne Is undoubtedly
Known better outside France for the
pepper 1t produces than for being a
locality to which French convicts are
transported; while the town of Cognac
in France, owes its celebrity solely to
the brandy distilled from its grapes.

TEXANS TussLE WITH BEAR.

Then Cuts Its Throat.

shut on Animals Wind with Lariat,
Then Cuts It's Throat.
Jim Gordon, range rider for w. w.
Wilkins, whose big ranch is over near
Howard Wells, in Western Texas, was
much surprised the other morning TO
see large black bear numbering along
ahead Of him. 1t was in a rough To-
cality and the bear was evidently out
to get its morning meal of sotol roots.
Gordon stuck his rails into his horse
and took after the bear. The chase did
not last long. Gordon unloosened his
rope, which was coiled over the pommel
Of his saddle, and when he got within
throwing distance Of the fleeing bear
he deftly circled the moose over the ami
mails head. The cow pony sat back up
on its launches and drew the rope
taut. The bear got one of its paws un-
derneath the moose and prevented the
rope from choking it. Then began a
struggle that lasted for more than an
hour.
Ordinarily a horse is desperately
afraid Of a bear, but the COW pony
which Gordon was riding stood the or
deal fearlessly. 1t maintained its po-
sition while Gordon dismounted with
view Of attacking the bear at close
quarters with his knife. He had no
other weapon. The bear put up hard
fight the moment it saw Gordon on the
ground. 1t rushed at him and struck
him terrific blow on the shoulder
which sent him sprawling several feet
away, and cut of reach of the mad
dened animal, which was confined to a
prescribed circle by the rope.
Strange to say, the bear made no at
tack upon the horse. 1t seemed to con-
slider Gordon responsible for the whole
trouble. Gordon determined to kill the
animal before he left the spot. He
made several Intellectual efforts to dash
in on the bear and give 1t 4 blow with
his knife. but each time he was struck
BY the animals paw. Finally he got
hold Of the rope and by 4 sudden pull
managed to tighten the moose so that
the bears wind was temporarily shut
of.
Taking advantage of the moment
Gordon rushed in and cut the jugular
vein Of the animal with his knife. Ho
loaded the bear upon his horse and
brought 1t to the rsAchhouse-KanSas
City Star.

The End of Books.

What brings about the end Of books
Is 1t fire, water, worms? AS every
ship launched is bound to be wrecked,
every theater to be burned, the finis OF
the book Is its reduction to ashes.
What became of the Alexandrian IL
brary? Did the Saracens burn it In
$40? There is this question asked !:
Was there any library at Alexandria
containing 100000 books? Gibbon in
clines to the opinion that there was no
such library. Canon Taylor insists
that If there had been a library 1t was
burned in the time of julius Caesar.
Tradition seems to indicate, however,
that there was library in the sera-
peum, by no means large collection,
but whether destroyed by Theophilus
or Theodosius is not known. 1t looks
as If the charge brought against the
Arabs rested on no foundation. Explo-
rations Of Alexandria in 1856 show
no traces of the serapeum. The sea-
port Of Egypt was built on damp
foundation, and granting that there
was library, If not destroyed by fire,
then the papyri might have suffered
from decay due b. water. Books Of
to-day taken to India, to the Southern
States and to the West Indies perish
