Forest Animals Big Ears.

Within the limits of particular
groups large ears may be taken, as a
rule, to indicate either great powers
Of hearing or the necessity of catching
every wave sound. Thus, forest-dweIl-
ing animals generally have larger, and
especially broader, ears than their rel
atives inhabiting open country.
An excellent instance of this is af-
forded by the okapi of the SemIikf for
est, as cOnTasted with the giraffe of
the more open districts of Africa-the
ears in the one case being excessively
broad and leafike; in the other they
are comparatively narrow and pointed
Similarly Grevy's zebra. which fnhab-
its scrub jungles in Somaliland and
northeast Africa generally. has much
larger and wider ears than the ordi-
nary zebra of the open veldt.- Scien-
tific American.

old, is a bride for the third time ip
her long career. Her husband is
James, Carew, her leading man in the
American tour which ended recently.
He is only 50 years old. They were
married in Pittsburg, March p, in
the course of the tour, by a justice of
the peace, but it was not until the
other day that it became known.
Mr.. Carew said his bride would not
abandon her stage career. He said
they had known each other two years
and had been engaged months. The
bridegroom is six feet tall, broad of
shoulders, with a ruddy. clean shaven,
handsome face. He is a native of In

HAD TAPPED HEMLocK TREES.
Vermonter Loses Maple Sugar Yield
Through Ignorance of Worker.

Pomfret, Vt-The next time Law.
renee Pratt hires new farm hand
he will be certain that he under
stands his work before he sends him
into the sugar bush to tap. It will
save him a lot of trouble and much
chatting.
Mr. Pratt hired the man, Henry
Jones by name, to do general work
about the farm and help him out dur
ing the maple sugar season. He
knew that Jones had been employed
during haying last summer by a
neighbor and had given satisfaction,
so he didn't go into particulars.
When it came time to prepare
spiles, or taps, for the maple trees.
Jones appeared a bit rusty as to- their
manufacture, but after watching the
boss for a few minutes he proved a
master hand at whiting them. The
farmer delegated Jones to tap the
trees.
Everything went well until the first
run was boiled. The sap seemed ex-
ceptionally sweet, but when it had
been boiled down the syrup tasted
bitter and he and Jones were
nauseated.
you are sure you didn't tap any
thing but naples" inquired Mr.. Pratt.
'Why, there amt nuthin' else in the
orchard, is there?" asked Jones.
Nothing else!" shouted the farm
er. why, man, there must be 80
hemlocks sticking around

Sheen ANNOY Trainmen.

Cripple Greek, Col.-The law for
bidding the killing of mountain sheen
is a good thing for the sheep but a
frequent source of annoyance to train
men, for the animals make a high-
way of the tracks and viii not take
to the right or left when a train ap-
proaches but will stick to the path.
Trains have to stop while the train
crews with loud cries and much pro-
family personally drive the sheep

Blame L on Columbus

The most eXecrated man in London
to-day is Columbus. The above sen
tence, according to the Van Norden
Magazine, is a part of recent teIe-
gram from London referring to the
financial disorders prevalent in most
of the capitals of the world. AS
usual with the English the blame is
all laid on the Americans, and Column
bus is now hated because he was
audacious enough to discover Amer
