Johnnie Green Gone Wrong.

Last week Johnnie Green shook
the dust of our city from his feet with
the announcement that There were
too many id niggers in Grange
vile for respectable white man to
earn an honest living at boot black
ing," and hied him away to the
banana belt, where less fuel and lighter
wearing apparel are required. The
citizens here regret Johnnie's leave
taking and the manner of his going
the seeming spirit of disgust and re-
sentiment toward them which over
whelmed his soul with righteous in
dignation at the thought that negro
could supplant him in their affections,
and caused him to thus ruthlessly
sever the fast friendship which has
been formed only with months of in
timacy. And to Johnnie's many
friends here, both male and female,
the news that he has gone wrong,
will come as severe shock. The
story is told in this brief and heartless
manner by the Lewiston Tribune:
In the police court this morning
John Green, porter, until recently
employed at Grangeville, was charged
with drunkenness. Green was very
penitent and promised that if re-
leased he would get work at once and
pay the fine of SO assessed against
him. He was released on this con-
dition by Judge Erb."
There are worse people and bigger
fools in this world than Johnnie, and
in all fairness we wish to bespeak fol-
him fair consideration at the hands oil
the newspapers and citizens of Lew
iston. He is of the variety seldom
found outside of the New York slums,
and according to his code of ethics,
he lives correct life.

Polishing a Diamond.

The polishing of diamond is very
slow process, because of the great
hardness of the material; besides this,
the work must be frequently inter-
rupted to allow the disk to cool out
after 1t has become overheated by
friction. Each time a new facet is to
be cut the diamond must be removed
from the dop and reset at another
angle, and the diamond cutter trusts
to his eye alone to guide him in this
delicate adjustment, although in the
case Of very small diamonds a mag
nifying glass Is necessary. The skill
shown in placing the stone in the
heated metal, sometimes with the bare
hand. is surprising. The regular bril-
liant has Sc facets, besides the table
and the collet; 80 above the girdle and
"a below; but as eight facets are first
formed both above and below, each
of these being recut into three or four
smaller ones, there are considerably
more than s. separate surfaces to be
cut.-From DR.. George Frederick
Kunz's "The Two Largest Diamonds"

The national dance of Montenegro
Is the kolo, somewhat similar to the
horo OF Bulgaria. Both sexes take
part, crossing hands and forming an
unJoined circle. The music they sup

alternately singing a verse in honor
OF the prince and his warlike deeds.
The kolo is always danced at any

OF the sonorous voices and swaying

other dance performed by four or FIVE.

When fighting the Turks the Monten.

Il was told once how a certain man

his cigarette and rushed toward the
soldiers, who seeing his intention,
promptly made tracks.
1T was of course lucky that the Mo.
hammedar soldier, who does not much
mind being sent to Paradise with a
bullet, thinks his chance of eternal
bliss very doubtful If he is blown up
with dynamite. The nerve required to
be a bomb thrower is worthy Of lit

short the ignition must be coolly con.

"Infirmity of Noble Minds. "

DR.. Samuel Johnson's definition of
ambition" seems to fit the case of
Commander Peary.
There is nobility in his ambitious
climb to the roof of the world, but
there is infirmitv in his jealous care
to have the glory to himself.
''Why did you not take a white
man with you to the pole as witness
to your success?"
Because, after a lifetime of effort,
/ dearly wanted the honor for myself
alone"
It was for this reason that Mr..
Peary's gallant comrade, Captain
Bartlett was compelled by his chief
to turn ruefully back from the con-
summation Of their great adventure.
He, too, had given his life to a
great effort, but he was not to enter
into the glory.
Thus the ambition of Commander
Peary vaults and overleaps itself.
II viii be harder for him to prove
his case. because Of the exclusion Of
Bartlest from his temple 81 fame.
