LaIande's Dried Spiders.

Lalande. the French astronomer, was
better known for his Objectionable
habit Of eating dried spiders than for
his discoveries in astronomy. Lalande
used to carry about with him a little
silver box full of dried spiders, which
he ate in public and amused himself
by offering to ladies. One day he told
the Comtesse de Perthuis, who did not
reveal the fact till long after the as
ronomers death, that he had never
eaten spider in his life and that what
he carried in bis box were only imlta-
houa made Of chocolate by friend who
was a confectioner He did 1t merely
to advertise himself. for he was vain
man and considered that sufficient at
tention was not paid him as an as
tronomer.

New Suits for New Baptists.

Garrett, Ind.-Adam Stewards cloth
ing store was stormed Saturday by
200 men who claimed suits of clothes
as recompense for accepting the Bap-
fist faith. Mr.. Stewart Is loyal
Baptist and recently announced that
he would present a suit to each man
who came into the church. Rev. Dan
Shannon, Baptist revivalist, has been
holding meetings here during the last
three weeks and quite lately has in
creased the number of his converts
at surprising rate. Apparently every
citizen in the place who needed new
suit of clothes was coming to the front
on the evangelist's call. Shannon and
Stewart will decide who of the con-
verts are actually converted. These
will be given new wardrobes.

Visits While Docs Catch Fish.

Port Jervis, n. Y.-Fishermen who
went to Porter's Lake yesterday never
will get thru talking about the way
"Bill" McMfchaels and his three
trained terriers cut down the pickerel
population.
Fishing thru the ice is popular
winter sport up here. "Bill' surprised
the other folks by chopping three
holes. Then he tied line to the hind
leg of each dog and dropped the baited
and went visiting.
He had not been gone over a few
seconds when one Of the dogs began
to bark and walk away from the hole,
dragging six pound pickerel after
him. Then the other dogs contributed
a pickerel apiece.
When "Bill" had taken the ante
mortem statement Of thirty-six finny
things he blew a whistle. Each deg
arose promptly, picked up the bag on
which he had been sitting, and swung
into line behind their master, as he
chit the trail' for home.
Jealous rivals accuse McMichaels OF
even making his dogs dig the bait for
him.
Thieves Steal House and Contents.
Chicago.--Gary, Ind, made it's
strongest bid for fame since it was
founded when the desk sergeant in
scribed on the police station blotter
Yesterday the following record:
"stolen-one 1 story frame house,
completely furnished, from lot at cor
ner of Eighth street and Broadway.
Property of Fred Miller. Taken while
owner was in Chicago on Christmas
visit"
MIR. Miller entered the police station
shortly after noon in an excited con-
dition He was out of breath and
there was a wild look in his eye which
caused the sergeant to feel in the desk
drawer for the station revolver.

r1ptlv. us it Gary, Ind?"
Assured that it was, Mr.. Miller be-
came still more GREATNESS. and the
wildness in his eye assumed the pro-
portions of a glare. Finally he mas
tered his emotion and spoke.

then?" he said. when left this town
Christmas eve to go to Chicago it was
standing at Eighth street and Broad
way, and now it's gone, clean as a
whistle"
The sergeant sent man with Mr..
Miller, and the two visited the erst-
while site of the Mil!ar home. There
was nothing there but a vacant lot.
There were traces, however, which in
dicated that the thieves had hitched
several horses to the dwelling and pull
ed it away but the trail was soon lost
and Mr.. Miller was offered tenn
porary bed in the police station.
which he declined with thanks.

LOCAL LAWYERS

II isn't often that lawyer gets the

The instance was in connection with
one of the endless Chinese feuds that
keep Chinatown buzzing and help the
lawyers to drive the wolf from the

lion, as a result of the failure of the
defendant in this case to make II

OF entirely recovering from the moi
ONE effects of the gas in few days.
Mr.. Spreckels was taken his morn
ing bath when the instantaneous gas
heater leaked, without his knowledge.
The escaping gas soon filled the room
and asphyXiatcd him before he real
,Icd his danger. His wife, uneasy at
the length of his stay in the bath,
knocked on the door and called. Re-
Cciving no response, she summoned
the chauffeur, who broke in the door.
The physician arrived none too
soon, although instantly called. 1t
was some time before Mr.. Spreckels
responded to treatment, and he lay in
I. dazed state most of the day, as the
effects of the poison wore out of his
system.
The doctor stated last night that
the patient win he quite well in Il
