A Hard Burial.

riage washers was engaged washing
carriages on one of our northern rail
ways when one of them remarked TO
his mate, an old soldier who was IA

1856 one Of our mates died, poor chap.

sort of frost 1t was when tell you 1t
froze the body SO stiff and the ground
so hard that we had to get hammer

More Illicit Stills In New York City
Than In Kentucky.

"Don't talk to me about moonshining
in Kentucky" said the internal reve-
nue. agent. There's more moonshin-
ing going on all the time in little old
New York than could be done in ten
Kentuckys. In the crowded sections of
the east and west sides stills spring up
right along and for awhile conduct a
hourishing business in the low grade
whisky they manufacture. You see, II
doesn't take much trouble to equip a
still with corn and yeast and start in
to make the mash, which Is finally
turned out as pretty poor sort Of
whisky. The great difficulty is in get.
ting rid of the peculiar smoke and
odor from the stills without exciting
suspicion. This is usually attempted

To Make Your Hair Curl,

A curious recipe for making the hair
curl naturally" is given In an ancient
household notebook and Is as follows:
'In the early spring, when the sap of
the wild grapevine begins to flow, take
a bottle to the woods and tie It under
an incision made In the vine, through
which the sap may drip, and leave 1t
there till it is filed. The same subtle
chemistry which curls the tendrils of
the vine Will act upon the hair and
twist 1t into softer rings than the ubiq-
uitous hot iron or any Of the patent
curriers' of the day. The sap should be
allowed to ferment all it will before it
is corked. When ready for use 1t should
be rubbed into the hair with a soft
sponge"

ever, whom Lord Campbell once de
scribed as the greatest advocate Of an

much difficulty in reaching the Wool
sack, although he started life as n
"middy" and did not settle down to
study law until he was twenty i've
years of age, His defense OF Captain
Baillle, prosecuted for his exposures OF
gross abuses at the admiralty, raised
him from an obscure lawyer to fore
most position at the bar, and thirty
briefs were offered him before he left
the court. From that time until he be-
came chancellor In 1906 his career was

SALT E.lVER.
Il Is . Real Stream, Although Not .
NavigabIe One.

II Is . Real Stream, Although Not 9
Nsvisable One.
Salt river, sacred to defeated candi.
dates, is real stream. While not
navigable, 1t is used every winter as an
Ice harbor by the towboats which go
out Of Pittsburg for the south.
Salt river empties into the Ohio
above twenty-five miles south of Louis.
Vile. 1t Is a small stream, which flows
from the Kentucky hills to the great
water, and Is as tortuous. as crooked
and as unpleasant to navigate as the
mind can imagine. Yet 1t Is navigated
for short distance from Its mouth by
steamers Of light draft. Flatboats and
RATS are foated down upon Its bosom.
Before the civil war it was an impor-
tant stream in the matter of bringing
Kentucky whisky down In the fat
boats to a point where they could be
unloaded to a river steamer. Refrac-
tory slaves were generally assigned to
the task of bringing these boats down.
as the work was arduous.
Salt river became bugaboo among
the negroes, and II was from the un-
pleasant character Of the work on this
river that "a trip up Salt river" came
to be used in politics to express the
destination Of defeated candidate.
There Is not river captain or pilot
In Pittsburg who does not know Salt
river, and there are few who have not
sought shelter within Its mouth when
the Ice was running out Of the Ohio.
The salt name is supposed to have
come from the salt springs which flow
into 1t at Its source. 1t is also said the
name grew out Of the fact that great
quantities Of salt produced In the Ken
lucky country are foated down this
stream.-Fuel.

NEW YORK BY NIGHT.
The Spectacle Of Its Lights From,
Rivers and Harbor.

BY whatever route you reach or leave
Manhattan Island in the evening the
river lights are beautiful. On the North
river the spectacle varies according to
the hour and season, for the downtown
lights in Manhattan are more numer-
Gus when the days are short and the
tenants of the great Office buildings
have to light up to finish their days
work. Across from the lower Jersey
ferries late in the afternoon Of winter
day glow and sparkle the great COM
pany Of tall shafts grouped against the
sky, each one pierced to the top with
regular rows of shining windows. A
memorable sight they make, those
shafts and huge blocks of cleaning
holes, reaching far above their neigh
bors that come between them and the
river. There is much in that spectacle
to recompense tired man for being a
commuter, and nowhere else on earth
is there the like of ii.
And, besides the tall shafts and the
Intervening lower lights and the glow
Of the streets that run to the river and
the ferryboats, with their long rows Of
bright windows, hurrying on their va
rious courses; the sound steamers going
out, other steamers coming in; all man
ner of lights more sober on all manner
of shipping; the street glare and the
ferry house and wharf lights ashore,
and, higher up. here and there the OBJ
truslve and commercial but none the
less radiant advertising signs.
The downtown Office building lights
go out early, most Of them. but up the
river some of the tall uptown hotels
continue, all the evening and in spite
Of curtained windows. to be light
houses.
On the East river, besides the city
lights and the river lights, are the high,
curving bridges. very striking and
beautiful, with their unobstructed out
lines marked by the glow of the cleo
trio bulbs.
There is poetry In these river lights,

A Dramatic Death.

A sergeant major Of an infantry reg
iment stationed In Bremen was SEN
fenced to a slight disciplinary punish
ment for having mortally wounded a
man with revolver in the course Of a
fight. He appealed against this, but
was Informed that his appeal had been
rejected. He then ordered his men to
load their rifles with blank cartridges,
but during their absence reloaded them
with ball cartridges. He then drew up
his men In firing line and carefully
showed them how to aim their rifles
straight at his heart. With the utmost
calm he then ordered, "Firev' and fell

Usina the Eyes.

A scientific writer quotes Helmholtz
as saying that in his work he could
only liken himself to the mountaineer,
painfully and slowly climbing. often
obliged to turn backward, lighting lat
er on new traces leading forward, and
finally reaching the goal, onI, to find
to his confusion that a plain road led
thither, If he had only had the eyes to
see. Darwin said he thought he was
superior to the common run of men In
noticing things which easily escape at
tention and in observing them care
fully.

were taking the rings from her damp

THE PlANOFORTE.
A Direct Descendant Of the claviehord
and Harpsiehord.


The pianoforte was directly evolved
from the ylavlchord and the harpsi.
chord. In I'LL Scipione MalIoi gave a
detailed account of the first four in
struments. which were built by Barto-
lommeo Cristofori, named by him pi.
anoforte. and exhibited in 1909.
Marius in France exhibited harpsi-
chords, with hammer action, in 171G.
and Schroter in Germany claimed to
have invented the pianoforte between
1717 and 1921. Marius at first was
generally credited with the invention,
for it was not until 1853. when Cristo-
forfs instruments had become famous,
that the italian advanced his claim,
and 1t was in 1863 that he brought for.
ward the proof of his contention.
Pianos of that period were shaped
like the modern grand, the first square
piano being built by Freiderica. an
organ builder Of SaXony. in 1853. The
first genuine upright was patented in
England anu the United States by
John Isaac Hawkins. an Englishman.
