Great Italian Statesman.

Nicolo Machiavelli, from whose sur.
name has been coined a synonym for
treacherous craft, was a writer of ner.
cous and concise Italian. He took high
rank as a dramatist, his comedy of
"Mandragola" being pronounced in
ferior only to the work of Voltaire.
Leo X admired it so much that he had
it played before him in Rome. His
book on the Art of War" won the
praise of so competent judge as Fred
erick the Great of Prussia. His policy
in craftsmanship embodied in his work
The Prince" was the direct antithesis
Of Washington's sentiment that Hon
esty is the best policy"

NEW WAY TO EARN A MEAL.
Stranger at Police Headquarters Gave
An Exhibition of Nerve.

The noon hour passed at police
headquarters the other day with the
ordinary quiet of Sunday. says the
Kansas City Times. 1t was even a
little less noisy than usual Every
body was-resting. About one O'Clock
a policeman, who couldn't find any
other place open, strolled in, a sug.
gestion of spring fever retarding his
movements. He thought the place
was deserted at first. Then he saw
somebody asleep in the chair reserved
for William Long, the jailer.
Hey, 'Bill!" he shouted.
No answer, and then he saw 1t
wasn't Bill" So he started on a hunt
for the jailer and finally found him.
Who's that asleep in your chair.
'Bill'?" asked the officer.
IN see," said BILL" without much
enthusiasm.
He looked long and earnestly at the
sleeper.
Il dunno who he fs," he said. I'm
ask the sergeant"
Search me-" said Sergt. Eubanks.
I'll ask the captain"
Hanged II | ever saw him before"
was Capt. Weber's comment. IN ask
the chief"
Think I've seen him somewhere"
said Chief Hayes, who prides himself
on his extensive and cosmopolitan ac-
quaintance. But 1 can't place him"
The sleeper slept on. At $3.50 o'clock
he awoke and looked around.
asked Sergeant Eubanks.
What meal ticket?" demanded the
sergeant
Well" said the stranger, they told
me if I'd come here and wait long
enough you'd give me a meal ticket"
The sergeant just stared.
Such nerve should not go unre-
warded," he said finally. Then he
wrote an order for Jail meal and give
it to the timid stranger.

CoIors to the Blind.

Have you any conception of color?'
a friend asked a blind man. What
idea have you when you hear colors
mentioned?"
"A person blind from birth as l have
been can have no possible proper con
ception of color" was the reply. ITO
me color is sound, or rather, music,
When 1 hear the word red, for ex-
ample. 1 instantly think of a high
piercing note of music; blue is to me
a delicately sounded note fairly high
and pleasing in tone; green is a soft
tone and rather low. quiet and rest

EAGLE WHIPS A MAN.
Then Resumes His Flight With a
Stolen Lamb.

Frederick Hollenbach, a farmer liv-
ing on the Schoharie Ridge, near Saeg-
ersville, was feeding the gray sQuir-
rels in his woodland when an eagle
flew past that had in its talons one
of his lambs. The big bird had been
annoying the community for a month.
Many farmers wanted to shoot it, but
the game warden threatened to In
woke the law providing for a $3.50
fine and Imprisonment for killing a
bald eagle. The eagle was flying low
and thinking he could save the lamb
Mr.. Hollenbach struck the bird sharp

the lamb all right, but instead of fly

his face. his hands and chest with it's

With a Real Octopus.

Here is an octopus adventure. The
crew Of the Perle, fishing boat hail
ing from Cancale. France, between st.
Malo and Mont. st. Michael, were
about to pull in a big net, when they
encountered a sudden resistance. The
net was simply crammed, not, how
ever, with good mackerel, but with
vast number of octopi. each provided
with tentacles more than six feet in
length. The Shiny wretches swarmed
up one side of the craft, giving the
fishers a frightful experience The
men had at last to cut the rope of the
net, sacrificing 1t altogether, and then
to free the side of the boat from the
octopi which stuck to it.

SHARP Mister Fox.

About dozen farmers boys in New
Hampshire turned out one Saturday
last winter to. hunt down a. fox that
was known to have his lair in a hill.
Reynard was finally routed out, and
after leading the crowd a chase of ten
miles he doubled back and his trail
was lost near a certain farmhouse.
Hunters and dogs beat around for two
hours and then gave up. When they
had departed the fox left the house
by a broken window. He had entered
the same way and concealed himself
in chimney. There was a fireplace
but no fire, and no one would have
thought of looking for him up there.
He was so covered with SCOT when he
got out that he was taken for a black

Jefferson's Scotch Preceptor.

To the Editor OF The Star:
While we'll known that the Scotch have
always been conspicuously prominent as
educators and teachers, it is not, we be-
lieve, generally known that two Of Thomas
Jeffersons early instructors were of that
nationality, and that he credits one of them,
Dr. William Small, with having shaped
the destines of his life"
The following extracts on the subject are
taken from Thomas Jefferson's autobi-
ography:
five years old My first teacher was
Rev Mr.. Douglass, q Scotchman, who
taught me the rudiments of Latin, Greek
and French. My next teacher was Rev.
Mr.. Maury, correct classical scholar.
In the spring of 1850 1 went to Will
liam and Mary College, where continued
two years and where it was my great good
fortune, and what probably fixed the des-
TIMES of my life, that DR.. William Small Of
Scotland was then professor of mathe-
matcs, a man profound in most of the
useful branches of science, with a happy
talent of communication, correct and gen.
tlemanly manners and an enlarged and
liberal mind. He, most happily for me, be-
came soon attached to me, and made me
his daily companion when not engaged In
the school; and from his conversation got
my first views of the expansion of science
and of the system of things in which we
are placed. Fortunately, the philosophical
chair became vacant soon after my arrival
at college. and he was appointed to fill 1t
per Intern. DR.. Small was also the
first who ever gave in that college regular
lectures in ethics, rhetoris and bellies
letters"
Jefferson further acknowledges being un-
der obligations to DR.. Small for introduce
ing him to the acquaintance and familiar
table of Gov. Fauquier, and that with him
and at his table. DIR. Small end Mr.. Wythe.
his amici omnium horaum. and myself
formed partie quarree, ana to the habitual
conversations on these occasions ! owed
much instruction"
In view of the high tribute thus paid by
Jefferson to his Scotch preceptor, DR.. VIII
liam Small, the man who shaped the des-
TIMES of his (my) life" would 1t not be
interesting to know something more about
the latter and his family, IL he had one?
We have several of the same surname in
this city. among them Mr.. ]. H. Small. also
one whose Christian and surname are the
| same. Mr.. William Small. a native Scotch
man and the president Of the st. Andrew 8
| Scotch Society Of this. city. 1t would be
| interesting to know II these gentlemen, or
any of our other Smalis are related to the
DR.. William Smah who shaped the des-
tinies' of Thomas Jefferson's life.
Who can enlighten US on the subject?

LATE HAPPENINGS IN THE WIN
CHESTER SECTION.
Special Correspondence of The Star.

WINCHESTER, Va, February 10 1907
Circuit Judge Thomas w. Harrison ~
Winchester has arranged his court matters
In this circuit SO to comply with the
governors request to preside over the trial
OF the Strother brothers recently indicted
at Culpeper, Va, for the murder of their
brother-in-law, William F. Bywaters and
will leave early next week for that place
to begin the trial.
John Heating, formerly of Winchester
but now one Of the owners Of the plant OF a
distilling company at Cumberland, Md, has
organized a Virginia society in Cumberland
Reports received last night from all parts
of the Shenandoah valley indicate there is
considerable difference of opinion among
peach growers as to what extent the
peaches were killed by the late freeze, when
the temperature went as low as 20 degrees
below zero in low-lying regions. 1t was gen.
orally believed at the time that no peaches
escaped, owing to the fact that the warm
January weather had advanced the buds
but 1t is now stated that investigation will
not bear out that opinion. AS Frederick
county is the banner peach county of Vir-
gin1a-lts average annual crop being about
100000 bushels-more than passing concern
Is felt in consequence of the small crop ex-
pected this year. Many growers say II will
not be over 30 per cent Of a crop.
Arrangements are being made for the
chartering of a special train of Pullman
burg, Hagerstown, Frederick, Waynesboro
Hanover, Gettysburg, and probably other
cities and towns in The Cumberland valley
on which to go to Philadelphia during the
annual convention of the grand lodge of
that order in May. Each lodge referred to
expects to appear in unique uniforms made
for the occasion.
The new jail for Shenandoah county at
Woodstock has been completed and accepted
from the builders by the court.
Accompanied by Attorney r. T. Barton,
John Henkel Henry of Winchester who is
interested in securing a new post office
building for this city, visited Washington
yesterday and had a conference with Off
Gals of the Treasury Department having
the matter in charge. At its last session
Congress appropriated 100000 for federal
building in Winchester and recently a num-
Der of sites were offered, but the authorities
considered the prices asked too high and
practically dropped the matter until Mr..
Henry interested himself in 1t with a view
of seeing the city get the new post office.
1t is expected that a site will be decided
upon shortly.

Another man who would like to relieve
Scott of the junior senatorship Is Charles
w. Swisher the secretary of state. an
active candidate for governor. Fully
thfee years ago ne connded this ampitlon
to his friends, but with the governors
chair engrossing his attention for more
than year yet he may have pocketed his
desire in that line, unless he figures on
the senatorship in the event of guberna-
torial success. AS, if elected, he would be
governor while that fight would be on.
he would be in position to materially
advance himself or the man he favored.

with the order Of the Post Office Depart

also much better.
