unDOised Lives.

The life of the criminal is simply an
unpoised life. If a person were per

repugnant that it would be unth1nk

It Is the one-sided, the IMPOSED
mind that goes wrong. 1t is just as
normal for the balanced mind to
choose the right, the good, as for the
magnet to draw to itself whatever is
kindred.
Just as the needle In the mariners
compass always points to the north
star. no matter how thick the fog or
how the tempest RACES, there is a
needle within every human being
which always points to the north star
of rectitude, Of right, Of truth, no mat.

this novel leather became somewhat
fashionable and a considerable demand
developed. The market, however, was
not long continued, and after few
thousand hides had been shipped from
the Gulf States the demand ended.
During the Civil War another raid
was made upon these saurians to sup
ply shoe material and they were again
slaughtered in thousands, but with the
cessation of hostilities and the restor-
alton of free commerce in shoe mate
rial the alligators were again left to
repose for a period.
The rest, however, was only temper
airy, for about 1869 tickle fashion again
called for the leather for manufacture
ing into fancy slippers, boots, travelling
bags belts, card cases, music rolls and
so forth. An immense demand was
soon created for it, resulting in the
slaughter of many thousands of the
animals every year, giving employment
TO hundreds of men. The demand soon
exhausted the productive capacity of
this country and large numbers of skins
were imported from Mexico and Cen
trail America.
The consumption Of this leather at
present is greater than ever before,
and owing to the large importations
the market price is somewhat less than
a few years ago. The output of the
tanneries of the United States approx
mates 100000 skins annually, worth
s420,OO0. 1t is characteristic of all
aquatic leather-indeed, of all feathers
that they are curiously checkered in
oblong divisions, known as scales" or
"bosses," separated by intersecting
grooves, and varying in size and char
acter from the rough, hornlike scutes
on the back to the smooth, pliable
markings on other parts of the body,
giving the skin that peculiar effect
which makes it so popular for leather
purposes.

A familiar sight on crowded rail-
road trains is that of a procession of
passengers moving hopelessly by seats
that are covered with baggage. The
seats are reserved" by the simple
process of placing the baggage on
them, and the owner Of the baggage
feels that he has established a perma-
nent claim So secure is he that he
may pass most of the time after the
train starts in smoking car. This
familiar incident Of travel led to
a dispute which was taken to the
courts in New York State, and the
Court of Appeals has decided against
the smoker. 1t holds that seats are
for passengers, not for baggage, and
that no one is bound by the reserVa-
ton In the particular case the tive
contestants had come to blows. The
conductor, who was appealed TO-,
would not pronounce upon their
claims, and though the intruder was
obliged to succumb to superior force,
he succeeded in throwing part OF the
baggage through the window. The VIC
tor, not satisfied with this result, In
voked the aid of the law and wanted
damages for his loss and for the in
jury to his feelings, as well as judg-
ment that he was acting within his
rights in trying to occupy two seats.
But the court was generally unsym-
pathetic. It considered the feelings of
the other man and indicated that the
smoking baggage owner could get
damages only by separate suit In
which he should establish the exact
amount of the loss that he sustained
because of the window episode.
Though the decision is effective In
one State only, it will arouse general
interest, since the reservations are
common in all parts of the country.
Whether they are respected or not de-
ponds very much, however, upon the
character of the individuals concerned.
The more aggressive person with the
stronger will Is likely to have his way
unless there is a well-defned author
tty that can be asserted over him.
Sometimes nothing more is attempted
than a bluff that results in abject
failure when it is called. Or deception
is practiced, as is the case when the
man with the baggage sits close to the
window and becomes absorbed in his
paper, letting his grip speak for an
imaginary absentee owner. His OBJ
ject is to keep two seats side by
side, but often the simple question,
rs this seat occupied?" will suffice
to clear the atmosphere and the cush-
ion. And the curious thing is that
the same person may take the differ
ent parts in the drama at different
times. We say curious, but perhaps
this is only human nature and not
very curious after all.

There is no longer any danger of
over-production of breadstuffs and meat
and dairy products in this country. Elk
tension of the area of cultivation ap-
proaches the limit more and more, and
it does not keep pace with increase of
population. The demands of the do
nestle market for consumption ad-
vance out of proportion to production,
and the surplus for export is relatively
diminishing while the worlds require
ments increase. The export of farm
products is still our mainstay for pay,
ing for imported merchandise and will
continue to be so while the cost of
manufacturing is artificially kept up,
for exports necessarily come into COM
petition with foreign products of the
same kind. We not only need to ex-
tend the area of land cultivated for the
staple crops. but to improve methods Of
cultivation and reduce cost of produc-
ton so far as practicable.

COINERS STEAL BELLS.
Taken from Church and JaiI-Metal
of COunter7elters.

Taken from Church and Ja1l-M etal
of COunterfeIters.
The strange theft of a church bell
from the chapter house of Southwark
cathedral the other day was paralleled
some few years ago by the mysterious
disappearance of the big bell of ia
nous English jail. 1t was in it's place
one evening and the next morning 1t
had vanished. The affair was kept a
secret from the press, in accordance
with the traditional policy pursued by
our prison authorities, and for long
while nobody knew what had become
of the missing article.
Eventually, however, it leaked out
that it had been stolen by one of the
convicts with the connivance of war
der. The thief was a professional
coiner whose period of detention was
on the point Of expiring and his rea-
son for desiring the acquisition of so
much good metal is sufficiently obvi-
GUS to need no explanation.
In all probability the missing South
wark bell was annexed for a similar
purpose, although other ends have
been had in view in the past by steal
ers of such articles. There was, for
instance, the case of the antiquary
who stole the famous ST. KILN bell
from its place in the tower of KILN
Church in Perthshire.
The vulgar believed that the bell If
surreptitiously carried away would
extricate itself from the hands of the
thief of its own accord and return
home ringing all the way; and the
antiquary, when called to account,
pleaded that he took the bell In order
to prove the falisty of this particular
popular superstition. Then there was

The child was known as the most
photographed baby in America and his
father had posed him more than 1000
times The most familiar include the
talcum-powder picture of child smil-
ing at fine particles strewn from box
and enc of a babe seated in bathtub
with cake of soap in his hand.
The boys mother was with him at
the time Of the accident. The boy, run
ming ahead of his parental guardian,
leaped to a window seat and leaned
forward to steady himself on the win
dow pane. But the window was open
and, instead of finding glass, the child
toppled out into the street below. Mrs.
Monfort, only four feet behind him,
frantically leaped after him, but miss
ed the child by a few inches. Then
she tried to throw herself after it
through the window, but was prevent
ed by the train crew.
