OLD.FASHIONED MERCHANT.
Days When Merchant" and Gentle.
 man" Meant the Same Thina.

From the New York Mail
 The name of merchant" enjoyed it's highest honor in the days before the civil war, when men of education and refnement-often self-educated, to be sure, and refined by such contact with the world, as persons of innatae honor always are-lived lives of simple and uncovetous grace, and spent part of each busy day in the service of the public in some form. In those days merchant" and gentleman meant very much the same thing. We may lament that more rapacious epoch has changed this in some sense. Few business men now have the time to do much high thinking, or are left un- harassed or unpilloried long enough to ripen their purest intentions toward the public. Most of those who are well inclined commute their debt of service with a bequest at death.
 Yet we have occasion to rejoice that the old type of merchant still survives that we possess certain honorable examples of the elder, simpler and nobler spirit. One of these examples, these knightlier trafflckers, richly de- serves the mention of his name, in con- nection with his recent retirement from business; for no man, either in the calmer days of commerce, or at the present time.. has eyer more complete ly realized the ideal of combination of keen business activity with unself- ish and ceaseless public service. We scarcely need to say that we refer to Robert Curtis Ogden.

Furnace Insanity.

From the Columbus Evening Dispatch.
 Reading of the insanity of furnace worker who the doctors say went crazy from being overheated while at work on one of the platforms of a blast furnace. reminds me of the southern treatment of furnace insanity" said a man who trav- els considerably in the south.
 'rhs most of the furnace hands are negroes and very often one of them will go gas crazy as they call it. When this happens, his fellow workmen take him away from the furnace, dig hole in the furnace sand. and bury the crazy man in 1t. He is stood upright. and the sand banked up around him to his neck. He is kept there until he becomes rational again-rarely more than q few hours It may be the insanity comes from heat, but the negroes think 1t Is from smell ing the gas which comes from the fur mace. What there is in the treatment that cures I don't know, but it does cure.''

The Scotch Juror.

From Chambers Journal
 In Scotland in civil case, jurymen get ten shillings a day for their services, and the litigants must in addition provide them with lunch. If two cases are tried consecutively on one day, and the same jurymen officiate they get ten shillngs for each case.
 But the most important difference be- tween an English and a Scottish jury is this; An English jury when returning their verdict must be unanimous, and If they Tall to agree after certain length of time they are dismissed and the whole proceedings are begun again before a fresh jury. This is most expensive mode of administering justice. In civil cases. in order to avoid this result the litigants sometimes agree to accept the verdict by a majority. In Scotland the jury always gives a verdict by majority in civil cases after the lapse of three hours.

How Flutes Catch Quail.

From the Los Angeles Times.
 These natives have unique way of getting quail. for them there is no closed season. indeed any game law whatever. Seasons when the quail come down from the mountains to the spring the Indians make great preparations for their capture.
 They build a bough house, with a long, slender opening in the front, formed of tall straight sticks set closely together. Within the house an Indian sits concealed. holding a long Timber rod, which he op- crates dexterously through the narrow op- ening. In the early morning when the birds flock down for water he picks them off, one at a time killing them instantly
 There is no report in this manner of hunting 10 frighten the others away. and the Indian often gets enough game in a single morning for the whole settle ment

Hugqed by a Bear.

Reno Correspondence Sacramento Bee.
 On entering a deserted mining tunnel about six miles north of this city yes- terday George Hensler, mining man of Reno was surprised to find himself face to face with huge brown bear The bea" was fighting mad and Henser saw that he was in for it. He grabbed a knife from his belt and made a lunge at the bear, but MT Bruin grabbed him, and after giving him 0 bone cracking hug threw him to the ground and rushed out of the tunnel.
 Hensler followed the bear, but lost no time in hurryina to his horse, which was tiea to a pine tree a few yards down the mountain side. He made record time to Reno, and, bleeding and with clothes torn, related the story to number of companions

The J. Whitaker
 Piano Co.

has sold a large number of fine pianos to the people of Jeffer- son county since he has been closing out his stock of pianos. The public is now realizing where they can get their moneys worth in a purchase of a piano. The reason that MT. Whitaker can sell pianos at a smaller profit than any other piano house in the State of Alabama, his expense is less than one-third of any other piano house in the city of Bir mingham.
 He has no presidents large salaries to pay, he has no man. ager's salary to pay; he has no salesmen's salaries and con- missions to pay; he has no high priced bookkeeper to pay; he has no large office force to pay; he has no large tuning depart ]. ment to pay; he has no large force of porters to pay and no large expense of horses and wagons to keep up; he has no high rents to pay and no big insurance to carry.
 He does no expensive adver- Using. J. R. Whitaker buys his pianos close from the fac tory and sells them himself. He does all his work; so you can see how much money you can save when you buy a piano from J. R. Whitaker.
 He will continue his sale through the month of April for the same low prices that he has been offering for the last few weeks past. He has several secondhand pianos in stock that you can't tell hardly from new. He will sell for about one-half of their regular list prices. It will pay you to go to Whitaker's and get his prices before buying a piano elsewhere. He will make terms to suit customers.

SPREAD OF BALLOONRACING

most important point in the whole con test
 The answer to this query is that the millionaires who are engineering this novel race have discovered that St. Louis is so far removed from mountains and all large bodies of water that 1t affords an ideal field for ballooning, offering an im- mense stretch of space over which the airships can pass with very little danger. They also found that the upper air cur rents of St. Louis are almost invariably from southwest to northeast, so that 1900 to 2OOO miles can be traversed before the ocean is reached, and without encount- ering any mountains Furthermore, the coal gas at St Louis provel the best for ballooning purposes that they had ever tested. These would appear to be ideal conditions or at any rate far superior to those that exist near the coasts.
 Ballooning recalls all sorts of attemtps in the past at aerial navigation Balloons were first used by Montgolher in 17S3. That genius used heated air few weeks later Messrs Charles and Roberts inn proved on this idea by using hydrogen.
 There have been aeroplanes and dirigi- ble arships without number experimented upon, and some of them with consldera- ble success, but the 20th century finds the designers of balloons and various flying machines more confident than ever that they are to succeed soon in utilizing the space above the earth for aerial naviga lion on a grand scale. Such remarkable progress has been made already in this direction that whoever should argue that it cannot be accomplished successfully within comparatively short time would be considered greatly at fault
 And if aerial navigation should be made possible and safe on an extensive scale throughout this country in the near flu ture. what large number of new prob lens might arise to perplex our law makers who are dazed already over the question of transportation on land! What a scramble there might be for navigation franchises in the air How the lawyers would wrangle as to who owned the air above each community! After all who does own the air? Let debating societies take up >his question and give it a good airing

Lightning Rod Inventor Dead.
From the Indianapolis News.

From the Indianapolis News.
 David Munson. one of the oldest busi- ness men of this city, is dead. the result of an accidental fall received last Monday near Curtisville, Tipton county, this state.
 A number of men under his direction were engaged in putting lightning rods on large barn. MT. Munson had started to go up a ladder. When about twelve feet from the ground he was seized with a vertigo and fell. He died from the shock yesterday.
 About 1850 he invented "Munson's cop per tubular lightning rod with spiral fianges' This was the first material de- parture from the old fashioned iron rod and 1t had q great sale all over the Unit cd States. From the time of it's invention up almost 10 the present he had taken out about 125 patents on lightning rods and appliances for theft manufacture.

Boston's First Building Law.

From the Boston Herald.
 Two hundred and twenty-six years ago a house was burned in Boston, which led to the promulgation of the first building law This fact developed at legislative hearing this week, and when told by As sistant Solicitor Child aroused great in- terest. The order passed on March 16 1881, was as follows:
 About noon the chimney of MT Thomas Sharps's house in Boston took fire. The winds drove the fire to MT Colburn's house and burned that down also. For the prevention whereof in oui new town indended this somer to bee builded we have ordered that noe man there shall build his chimney with wood nor cover his house with thach, which was readily aSSented unto.

sued for very heavy damages in connec- ton with q motor accident. Near Pen dersdorf the King driving past met a man driving a cart. The horse shied and bolted The fdriyer whose name was StarclIe was thrown over the front of the cart, and one wheel went over him, break ing several ribs and an arm.
 He died from his injuries, and Inc King offered $500 to his family. This offer was refused and suit entered for ten times that sum.
 One can hardly imagine anyone having the cheek to sue the Kaiser. One would expect the daring plaintiff to be at once flung into prison for lese-majeste. How ever, the federal court at Leopzig has come to the conclusion that Wilhelm is subject to common law.
 The trouble arose out of the closing to passengers of highway passing through fhe imperial estate of Cadinen, in West Prussia. The road was the only one lead ing to a station belonging to q private railway company and they brought suit.
 The first court decided in the eompany's favor. The Kaiser appealed second court reversed the decision and declared that redress could not be obtained against the Kaiser. This time the company ap pealed. and the case being taken to tho highest court of al-the federal-the de- cision of the lowest court has been upheld. The Kaiser has had sorely against his imperial will, to open up his road.
 immune From Taxation.
 Kings are, as a general rule. complete ly immune from any direct taxation, either notional or local But this immunity does not extend to heirs-apparent. The Crown Prince of Germany owns q fine estate at Oels, in Siles.a, and. taking d leaf out of his fathers book, refused to pay Sl250 local taxes.
 The district council. therefore took ac- tion against him. and his royal hghness actually appared in court at Breslau He lost his case. and. like any common of fender. was given a week to pay.
 At the same time. there is an ancient prerogative of the Kings of Prussia which enables them to intervene when any mem Der of their family is threatened with prosecution at civil law. Only q few months ago the Kaiser invoked his pre- rogative to save his brother-in-law, the foolish Duke Ernest Gunther from prose- oution for conspiracy. The prosecutrlx in the case vas a former ady-in-waiting to the Dukes sister. Princess Amalie. Some of the Princess jewels were stolen, and tine Duke. who is notorious for his cranky notions got it into his head that the lady -in- waiting had stolen them, and promptly had her arrested.
 The lady has since cleared herself of the charge. and, eager for revenge. instituted proceedings against the Duke. Had the latter been ordinary subject or had not the Kaiser interfered. there is no doubt that he would have been convicted. The legal punishment is five years inn prlsonment.>

Indian Fondness for the Dance.

From the Denver Republican.
 Like all the rest of his red-skinned brethren, the Crow Indian dearly loves the dance. One Indian will drop his hay ing in the face of thunderstorm to go to a ditnce, and squaw will forget all her hifalutin college education at the prospect of keeping step to the magic beating of those tomtoms.
 The music of the dance represents the summons of the ages-it is the call of the wild which the Indian cannot resist The best and most industrious succumh to it's wiles.
 Ihe government is trying to stop Indian dancing on all the reservations, for the reason that an Indian will do nothing but danc, when he is given free rein.

Czar's Protected" Train.

From the London News.
 the czar's Imperial bomb proof train, in which the dowager empress Of Russia travelled from St. Petersburg, attracts much attention. It is a magnfcently furnished train, and consists of nine very large coaches, the bodies of which are specially constructed of steel. Each of the coaches bears the imperial eagles em- blazoned in gold on the outside panels. One peculiar feature of the train is the smallness of the windows. The train is guarded night and day by thirty or forty attendants, most of whom live on the train.

Great Stunt by Geronimo.

From Outing.
 In q single day Geronimo, when in his prime, ran 4O miles on foot. rode 800 miles on one stretch. as fast as he could change horses, and so completely wore out the column which finally captured him that three sets of officers were needed to finish the chase, and not more than one third of the troopers who started were at the finish.
 Wrinkled and crafty and cruel is his swarthy face to day, but the fire of his internal energy has died and he Is no more than a relic of the Geronimo of whom Gen. Miles said after their first meeting.
 He rode into our camp and dismounted a prisoner He was one of the brightest. most resoute. determined men ever met with the sharpest, dearest dark eye. Every movement showed power and energy
