CHURCHlLL'S DEBUT.

First Speech in Parliament Hit the
Mark in Spite of Faults of Delivery.
The first time l noticed Lord Ran
dolph Churchill in the house of COM
mons was on a May day in 1875. Sir
Charles Dixie had been making merry
at the expense of Woodstock, then
he presented by one known in the par
liamentary arena simply as cadet OF
the ducal house of Marlborough.
From the third bench behind that
on which ministers ought to have been
sitting, rose well groomed young
man, with protuberant eyes, pale face
and pOnderous mustache, with which
as he spoke he nervously toyed.
Members asking each other, who's
this?" learned that it was the mem
Der for Woodstock rising to defend
the corporation of the borough that
sent him to parliament.
Though assisted by notes, on which
the speech was fully written out, the
young member was SO nervous, his
voice SO badly pitched, his delivery
SO faulty that there was difficulty in
following his argument. But here and
there flashed forth a scathing SEN
tence that made it worth while to at
tempt to catch the rest. When he
sat down Lord Randolph had made his
mark, had established himself as an
personality in an assembly in which
within ten years he was predominant.

THE NATIONAL TAILOR.
Also Dressmaker-Also Hab erdasher-
New York Is All Three.

Also Dressmaker-AIso Hab srdasher-
New York Is All Three.
The interesting fact has been brought
to light that the most important indus
try in the state Of New York is the
making of women's clothes. Until re.
Gently the making of mems clothes had
the leading position, but dressmaking
has moved to the top.
The output of these two industries
during the past year was valued at
$340,000,000, which is within $25,000,-
900 of the total value of all the prod
ucts of the steel works and rolling
mills of Pennsylvania.
Nearly $4,000 people live upon the
making of women's clothes, and $4,000
more are engaged in making clothes
for men. Out of every hundred peo-
pie who work in the industrial pur-
suits of New York state fifteen are
engaged in making clothes for men
and women. Nearly $62,000,O00 was
paid out to these workers in one year.
New York is the national dress
maker, tailor and haberdasher. Out
of every $100 worth Of clothing made
for women in one year this state pro-
duced $40 worth. In collars and cuffs
for men New York manufactured near
ly 81 per cent of the entire output OF
the nation.
'It may be noted" says the Worlds
work. chat the value of mems fur
nishings has fallen behind, as COM
pared with 1900. 1t leads to a sus-
picion that mere man, if married, is
carrying a. burden that grows heavier
year by year. Far be it from us to
hint that any man goes collarness or
cuf1ess because his wife-but why
pursue this painful study of statistics
further?'

WOLVES AND FOXES IN WEST.
Reason for Prevalence of the Former
on the Plains.

Reason for Prevalence of the Former
on the Plains.
Some Lamar fox hunters were dis
cussing the prevalence of wolves and
the decrease in the number of foxes
thereabout. This they explained easily.
In the first place, the wolf is strong,
hardy and a great breeder. A wolf
will begin to rear puppies when she
is a year old, and there are from nine
to twelve in a litter. Usually every
puppy in the litter lives to be full
grown wolf. Thus the coyote as well
as his larger and more powerful gray
or black brethren multiplies very rap
idly.
Then the wolf is not chased with the
zest and eagerness with which the
sportsmen go after Sir Reynard. The
ordinary fox dog won't go against
wolf when he is at bay, and, further,
hounds that get into the habit OF
chasing wolves can't tell the trail OF
their quarry from that of shepherd
dog. The result is that every farmer
soon gets sore on bunch of hounds
that are trained to hunt wolves. They
are always concerning an innocent
farm dog and putting him to death,
thinking that they have run on to an
easily vanquished wolf.
"a fox" declared Mr.. Timmonds,
ION the other hand, is one of the
most delicate animals in the world.
In the first place, he can't fight. The
very moment a dog catches him he
gives up and allows himself to be
killed. Then the mortality among the
puppies is usually as much as so per
cent. Sir Reynard's only defense is
his well-known slyness and intelli-
gence."

BIG EUROPEAN BANoUETs.

Aberdeen Dinner With 2,4oo Guests
Feasts for French Mayors.
The 1900 club banquet to the colo
NAL ministers at the Albert hall, with
it's 1000 guests, is certainly OF I'M
posing scale, but it is scarcely, as
stated by contemporary, the second
largest on record" the premier place
being awarded to Lord Strathcona's
Aberdeen dinner at which the guests
numbered 2,400, says the Westminster
Gazette.
Some years ago the late Lady Bur-
dett-Coutts Toasted 1000 people at her
house at Highgate, King Edward be-
ing among her guests. A little later
his royal highness Gas he was them
was one Of 5000 guests who sat down
to a dinner in London; $500 were
present at the banquet in honor OF
the Right Hon. A. J. Balfour in Wa
verley market, Edinburgh, some time
ago.
But even such gargantuan feasts
cannot compare with the banquet in
1889 at the Palais de PIndustrie, Pa
ris, which was enjoyed by $4,000 may
ors of French towns, in addition to
1000 other dinners; nor with the
feast Sir Watkin w Wynn once gave
in Wynnstay Park to $1,000 neighbors,

consumed. II

BAHAMA LAKE OF FIRE.
Wonderful Effects Caused by Phos-
phorescence of Water.


phorescence of Water.
The lake Of Waterloo is phosphor-
escent sheet of water 1000 feet long,
near Nassau, in the Bahamas. At night
it is like a sheet Of living fire il any
wind is stirring to ruffle It's surface.
If the night be calm the water lies
dark and still until some object sets
it In motion. Little colored boys are
ready to swim out into the lake, where
they seem to be clothed in garments
of flame, leaving a long trail OF molten
splendor behind them.
The oars when rowing are as when
dipped In fire, and If one holds up a
handful of the water and lets it fall
it looks like beads of gold, and the
fish that dart here and there, startled
by the visitors, leave flashes OF mys-
tic. glowing splendor behind them.
The clumsy turtles that move about
look like balls of fire, and when 1t
rains the lake is like mass of jew
els.
This marvellous display of phosphor-
escence has never been accounted for,
as the lake is of artificial formation,
having been made for the breeding or
turtles by a Nassau resident. The bed
of the lake is cut out of solid lime
stone. and it is filled from the sea, in
which there is little of the phosphor-
escent quality.

ORIGIN OF WINE.
Il Dates From Very Ancient Times
The Monks Lesson.

Il Dates From Very Ancient Times
The Monks Lesson.
The grape, whose purple flood man
for century after century has con-
verted into wine, is a Persian by birth.
It's cradle was on the sunny hills to
the south of the Caspian sea, and
there the ancients ate it and enjoyed
it's acid taste. The men of Caubul
ground it to dry powder and ate 1t
with relish, half. as medicine, half
because they liked it.
And then those days went by, and
we hear of the renowned grapes OF
Palestine, which grew in immense clus-
tiers and weighed fifteen pounds to
the bunch. Noah planted the vine I'M
mediately after the deluge; the book
of Genesis mentions bread and wine,
and the Israelites complained that
Moses and Aaron had brought them
out of Egypt into dry and barren
land where there were neither figs nor
vines.
From the earliest times the evil eff
fects of wine have been reported. The
sin of Lot is supposed to have been
committed under the influence OF the
wine, and the evil power of the vine
is we'll illustrated by the story of the
monk to whom Satan offered a choice
of three sins, one of which was drunk
enness. The poor monk chose this,
and when he was drunk committed
the other two.

MAPLE SUGAR A DELIcAcY.
But 1t Is Disappearing and Counter

But 1t Is Disappearing and Counter
feits Take Its Place.
Maple sugar is in reality the same
as cane or beet sugar, plus a small
percentage of mineral substances and
an indescribable aroma, and delicacy
of taste. So it has remained for man
to counterfeit maple sugar and to at
tempt to add to syrups of ordinary
sugars such fiavors that the mind of
the epicure breakfasting off buckwheat
cakes reverts to the old sugar camp
where he spent the early springtime
of his boyhood days.
He has made many limitations; some
of them he has even dared to register
in the patent Office as discoveries of
the secret old Mother Nature told the
maple tree, but none of them, though
they make good syrup, has made ma.
pie syrup except at the sugar orchard,
of sap drawn through a Spite, caught
in bucket and boiled down over fra
grant wood fires.

But Father Bought Billy Instead OF

A young husband in the west end
is the proud father of twins. The ba-
bies have been i'll for some time. and
the young man has been greatly wor-
ried about them. He was preparing to
bundle the mother and the twins into
a south-bound sleeper the other day,
when he met his old family physician,
quite by accident, and told him of his
plight. The practitioner offered a sug-
gestion Immediately, which, he said,
would eliminate separating the family
and cure the twins. He told the young
father to get goat and feed the ba-
bies goat milk six times day as long
as they would take this sort of nour-
ishment.
The very day the young father called
up friend at National Stock Yards,
ILL.,, and, after chatting a few minutes
about business, gave this order:
Send goat out to my house; !
want it for my boys"
The stock yards friend went me-
chemically about the order, and the
goat was delivered within a few hours.
That night the young father met his
wife at the door with kiss, to hear
that the babies were no better.

assured her did the goat conner"
