Guarding Against Rats.

Although there are now no cases OF
plague In Pacific coast ports. there
is no relaxation OF the precaution
against the disease. The secretary OF
the Washington state board OF health
recently asked the mayor OF Seattle
to order that "all vessels shall breast
off from the dock at least six feet by
means of float or by spars. and that
on all lines or spars passing from the
vessel to the dock metal rat guards
shall be at right angles to the length
of the lines or spars. and that all
gangplanks shall be raised OF guard.

the chest and began to boast Of still
finer home runs that he had made in
the past.

"You know the gorilla. Kipling and
Du Chaillu describe him-an enor-

the rolling Of the muff1ed drums Of

as powerful as an elephant, the gorilla

First Silver Wedding,

The first silver wedding dates back
to the time Of Hughes Capet. The serv-
ants, says Home Chat belonging to
him had grown gray in his service, a
man and a woman, and what could he
do as a reward7 Calling the woman,
he said: "Your service is great, greater
than the mans, whose service is great
enough, for the woman always finds
work harder than man, and therefore
will give you reward. At your
age know Of none better than a dow
ry and husband. The dowry is here
this farm from this time forth be-
longs to you. If this man, who has
worked with you five and twenty
years, is willing to marry you, then the
husband is ready"
"Your majesty" said the old peas
ant, chow is it possible that we should
marry, having already silver hairs?"
'Then it shall be a silver wedding"
And the king gave the couple silver
enough to keep them in plenty.
This soon became known all over
France and raised such enthusiasm that
it became fashion after twenty-five
years Of married life to celebrate sill.

TO the mind Of Mrs. Abigail Jen.
nings there was sort Of disloyalty in
admitting to any outsider that native
of Willowby could be really eccentric.
AS for anything beyond eccentricity,
Mrs. Jennings would never have adj
mitted it, even in the case Of Miss
Rachel Gregg, who was frankly called
crazy by the summer visitors.
"Now, Mrs. jennings" said one of
the boarders, "do you really mean that
you've never known Miss Gregg to do
anything that you'd call crazy?"

The Treasury VauIfs

The first question the average Wis.
1tor to the United States treasury
building asks is, "Couldn't burglars
tunnel under the vaults and rob the
government" Well, that is not likely,
An armed guard sits beside the vaults.
Every twenty minutes he is required
to ring an alarm just to show that he
Is awake. An armed patrol makes the
rounds hourly. Secret service men in
plain clothes, with concealed weapons,
keep watch and ward outside and in
side the building. AS to tunneling, the
officials hold that if a man by any pos
sibility should manage to bore under
meath a vault the heavy metal would
crush him to jelly, thus administer
ing a lasting gold cure. Even if the
tunnel burglar should get away with
his life he could not get away with
much gold. Ten thousand dollars in
double eagles weighs thirty-eight
pounds. Forty million dollars in gold
certificates of the $4,000 denomination
weighs eleven and a half pounds.
Even burglars prefer the gold certif-
Gates to the real thing.-Buffalo Times.

Too Much Music-

II like churches to provide fine mu-
sic at all times" said a prominent
clergyman, ''but there are cases on
record where the music has been given
too prominent a place.
"An eloquent brother divine from
South Carolina once told me that going
to preach at a strange church he was
taken aside by deacon, who whis-
pered:
"Beg pardon, sir, but I must ask
you not to preach longer than ten or
twelve minutes. It's the music that
the people come here for
"That was wrong. But worse still
was the case of supply preacher in a
church famous for it's anthems and
choruses. The stranger, not noticing
the scraping and tuning of fddles,
rose and began to preach, when the
choir leader jumped up and shouted
angrily to him from the choir loft at
the other end of the church:
"'Sit down, man! When it's your
turn We'll tell you"

journalistic Revenues.

The curious boycott Of the press in
the Berlin parliament had a precedent
in the mother Of parliaments, the Brit
ish house of commons. A writer in
Harper's Weekly recalls that the per-
son involved was no less a celebrity
than the late Daniel O'Connell. He
condemned the inaccuracy of the par
l1amentary reports, but he forgot to
make allowance for acoustic difficulties
and the buzz Of intervening conversa-
ton. He charged the reporters with
the malicious suppression of his speech
es, and the gallery then refused to re-
port him at all. Dan stormed and
Numbered in vain, even moving that
the ringleaders be brought to the bar
Of the house. Finally he apologized,
and all was we'll. Lord Lyttleton in
1871 fell foul Of the press in the same
way, and the late Lord Monteagle had
his name omitted from London news
paper reports for two years because he
said something the reporters did not
like.

His Good Eve,

It is curious fact that the loss OF
any one Of the five senses is atoned for
to a considerable extent by pro-
nounced increase in the efficiency of
the other senses. The result is some
times astonishing.
A man who had lost the sight of
both eyes trained his hearing until he
could tell by the sound of his footsteps
on the sidewalks as he made his way
about town whether he was in the
middle Of the walk or at one side,
whether he was walking past a brick
or a frame house or a fence or open
ground.
He knew in what part of the town
he was not only by his memory or
sense of general direction, but by the
difference in the 'tones" Of his foot
steps, and he walked about freely, sell
dom running into anything or any
body.
Some one in his presence once called
in question his total blindness.
(Which eye do you think l can see
with?" he asked the skeptic.
'The left one, Of course" was the
reply. II can see that the right one l.
blind" ..
In reply the blind man merely
opened his penknife and tapped the
left eye with the little blade.
It was glass eye.

Victorious Revolutionists in Complete
Control.
Buenos Ayres, July 7-Advices re-
ceived here state that the revolution
lists have been victorious in Paraguay
and that a new government has been
established. These advices have been
confirmed by a dispatch received by
the minister of foreign affairs from
the Argentine legation at Asuncion,
officially notifying the minister that
the revolutionary party had succeed
ed in overthrowing the Paraguayan
government and that several of the
Paraguayan ministers of state had
taken refuge in the legation.
Fighting has been proceeding in
the streets of Asuncion for some days
past and many of the public buildings
have been seriously damaged. Pre-
vious estimates of the killed and
wounded, however, have been exag-
gerated, and it is now believed that
the number will not exceed 500. It is
expected that Geographic communities
ton with Asuacion soon will be re-
stored.

New York, July 1.-THE break in
diplomatic relations between the Unit
ed States and Venezuela, which result
ed in the withdrawal of Jacob Sleeper,
the American charge d'affaires, from
the Venezuelan capital, is far more
complete than was at first generally
believed. The full text of diplomatic
notes which passed between Mr..
Sleeper and DR.. Jose de Jesus Paul,
the Venezuelan minister of foreign af-
fairs, subsequent to the withdrawal of
Mr.. Sleeper, indicates that not only
are the friendly relations interrupted,
but completely severed.
In his letter notifying the foreign
Minister of his intention to leave the
Venezuelan capital Mr.. Sleeper wrote
that In view of the Venezuelan gov
ernment's persistent refusal to give
redress "for the governmental action

been destroyed or confis Gated" and lin
view of the tone and character of the
communications received from the
Venezuelan government" he believed
that "the further presence in Caracas
of diplomatic representatives of the
United States subserved no useful pur-
pose."
DR.. Paul's reply to this communica-
tton was made in the same tone which
characterized previous communica-
lions made to the American represent
tative. It declared that President
Roosevelt had persisted in asking re-
dress for American interests and in
dtvfduals without any justice and
right and that Venezuela is not
blameable If 1t does not permit the
nation to be "wrested of it's rights"
A request for "safe conduct" made in
Mr.. Sleeper's letter is refused on the
ground that as no state Of war exists
the Venezuelan government did not
consider it necessary or fit to grant it,
