BROKE UP THE ARMY.
A Mean Trick That Demoralized the
Haitian Troops.

Haitian Troops.
When not fighting or drinking the
Haitian negro spends his time lying
In the sun smoking innumerable ciga-
rettes All over the island the roads
made originally by the Spanish and
French have fallen into ruin, and the
thick forests in the interior are peo-
pied by depraved savages.
A story told by Mr. Sandman, the
we'll known American artist, illustrates
the then state of discipline which pre-
vailed among the 5000 ruffians who
bore the courtesy title of "the army"
Mr. Sandman and an Irish friend
who resided in the island were one day
watching the commandanta of the Hal
tan army reviewing his troops.
would you like to see me break up
the whole lot?" asked the Irishman.
''Of course" replied the artist.
The Irlshman then took five silver
coins from his pocket and, with loud
shout. threw them up in the air. In
stantly the whole army leaped forward
and scrambled for the money, the COM
mandanta himself securing the first
three pieces. After poeketing them
with dignity and restoring order among
his men he ordered the Irishman to be
arrested for bringing discredit on the
army. The Irishman was sentenced to
three weeks Imprisonment, but five
pieces Of silver and bottle of rum Sc
cured his instant release.

Youngest Son inherits Property and
Cares For the Old Folks.
The peasant farms of the Black for
est are handed down from father to
son in direct line, often dating back
400 years, says Antiquary.
There is no division as in France.
All falls to the heir, only here it is not
the eldest, but the youngest son, who
nherits. 1t Is rare that bur (peas-
anti dies as reigning head When he
gets on in years he abdieates in Or
der to end his days In the leibgedinge-
haus dover house,. which stands be-
side each hof {steading)
That he does SO in favor of his
youngest sou Is very sensible. Were
1t the elder he would have no peace,
for as soon as he married he would try
to induce his parents to retire just at
an age when power Is sweetest and
best exercised. For this reason the
practical farmers of bygone genera
tons decided to hand over the success
sion to the youngest, since when Benja-
min is full grown man father Jacob
Is old and glad to rest.
This law of Inheritance goes by the
name of vortel. Should the heir of his
own free will desire to resign In favor
of his elder brother the latter must
buy the property from him In such
case the younger may be termed
kind of Esau

Birds That Eiaht Eaalss.

In Foula, one of the Shetland Is

rearing skau gulls in order to rid the
island of the eagles that congregate
there and commit many depredations.
The magnificent red sandstone cliffs
that skirt the northwestern coast be-
came a favorite haunt Of the eagles,
and in this inaccessible spot they in
creased so rapidly that they became
terror to the farmers and fishermen
who dwell on this isolated spot. The

As Good as Porter

1t is curious how many people are in
ignorance of simple little facts in con-
nection with everyday life which
would save them large amount of
unnecessary labor and fatigue. Take
the ease of carrying heavy bag or
portmanteau, for Instance. We all
know the annoying way in which it
knocks against our legs and the almost
intolerable ache in the arm that is sup
porting the burden. Few people are
aware, however, that by folding cou-
pie of newspapers and putting them
under ones armpit a large amount of
the strain and inconvenience is imme
diately removed. Try 1t next time you
are hurrying to catch train.-Pear-

Mild Bill Hickok's Skill In Use of tn
Six Shooter

Mild Bill Hickok's Skill In Use OF tin
Six Shooter.
Wild Bill IIickok was the first from
tiersman who recognized the impor
lance of proficiency In the use of the
riX shooter. This was the real secret
of his supremacy. He was an unerring
marksman and shot as accurately I'M
der fire as when firing nj a mark, APP
parently taking no aim.
Probably no man has ever eQualed
him IN the lightnlnglikc rapidity with
of emergency and in the thorough self
possession that made IL possible for
him to take advantage of every oppor-
tunity In savage conflict. He had u
standing order to his deputies that
they should not rush In on him In any
of his ARRAYS and especially should
not come quickly up in the rear.
BY forgetting this Il man named Will
liams met his death ut Abilene, Hickok
taking him for an enemy and firing so
rapidly that II left no opportunity for
recognition. He readily killed wild
goose across the Smoky Hin with his
revolver Riding at his horses highest
speed, he fired shot after shot into a
Tin can or a post few rods distant.
Standing at one telegraph pole, he
would swing rapidly on his heel and
fire pistol lnll into the next telegraph
pole, These We're some of the simpler
feats he performed day after day on
the street to settle little wagers. He
could shoot hole through silver
dime at fifty PAGES and could drive the
cork through the neck of Il bottle at
thirty PAGES and knock out the bottom
without breaking the neck. He could
do what the fancy shots of the present
day do and possibly some of them
equal him as marksman with a re-
volver, but 1t must be remembered that
he was the first to acquire the SKILL

c0NJURED A TREATY.
How Houdin, the Magician, Awed the
Arabs Into Submission.

ARABS into SUBMISSION.
During the French conquest of Al
geria QS3o-3) negotiations for peace
were entered upon with the sheiks of
certain Arab tribes, and meeting for
the settlement of terms was arranged
to take place at the French headquar-
tiers. The French officers received
their guests with great hospitality, and
after the banquet given in their honor,
at which the utmost splendor was en-
ployed in order to dazzle their eyes
and captiyate their simple minds, an
adjournment was made to a large hall,
where NJ Houdin. the celebrated con-
jurer who had accompanied the French
forces, gave an exhibition of his skill.
They stared in open mouthed wonder
at all the tricks that We're performed,
and feeling of awe crept over them
as they witnessed the mysterious ap-
pearance and disappearance of various
objects But what appeared 10 them
most marvellous was the apparent
manufacture of cannon balls. NJ. Hou-
din passed round among them high
hat, which they examined very care
fully, but without suspecting anything
unusual in either its make or its APP
pearance. When the hat was returned
to him the eonjurer placed 1t on the
floor in the middle of the stage in full
view of his audience. He then proceed
ed to take from the hat cannon balls
apparently without number and rolled
them across the floor into the wings.
With this the performance terminated.
The chiefs then consulted among
themselves and came to the conclusion
that it was useless to offer any opposi-
ton to an army that could turn out its
ammunition in so easy a manner.
They therefore signed the required
treaty and departed to tell their friends
in the desert of the wonderful power
Of the invaders.
