 "True enough, Louis," said Bona parte with a laugh. 'But I beat you there. If you will look at that pro- boscis that Wellington carries on his facade you will see that I lost mine by nose"

 STRANGER THAN FICTION.

In the magnificent palace, near Paris, where lived the Victorien Sar- dou, playwright, was huge chest that contained numberless little boxes, duly labeled. In these card board receptacles were notes, jotted down at any time, in any place, newspaper cuttings, epigrams and aphorisms of his own-a chest of ideas and plots. Sardou saw life and all events as plots, and thought that the richest and widest imagi- nation could invent nothing so thrilling, so fascinating and truly dramatic as the incidents daily re- corded in the newspapers.

SUCCEED AS LAWYERS.

Mrs. E. s. Mussey, one of the women attorneys of Washington, is said to be enjoying good practice in that city, and quite a number of women in the profession are able to make a good living, some of them practicing in the supreme court. It is only comparatively few years since women became barristers, and yet they have already proved that in certain lines of legal work they are equals of men.

DENlZENS OF THE DEEP SEA
Nature Has Provided Them with Or. gans Wet! Adapted to Their
 Environment.
February I4,

Fish that inhabit the depths of the sea beyond the penetration of day light depend largely in their search for prey on the senses of hearing and smell. One would think they would have no use for eyes at all but na- ture has provided some of them with organs for the emission of phos- phorescent light, and in some cases the eye itself performs the double service of illumination and vision. There is thus feeble light in those gloomy depths. An examination of the brains of some of these creatures made recently in Germany by Dr. Trojan shows that the conformation of this organ, as well as the distribu- ton of nerves, fayors the senses of smell and hearing. The feeble devel- opment of the optic lobes and nerves indicates that vision is imperfect, while the powerful olfactory and auditory nerves, the huge lear stones" and the size of the corre- spending brain centers show what a preponderous part is played by sounds and smells in the mental life. if such it can be called, of dwellers in the marine abysses.

A well known London physician was invited out to the country for some shooting, but, although he tried several times, he could not hit a single rabbit.
 'I'm very unlucky," he exclaimed. I've killed nothing all day"

Narrow Escape in Auto at
PlainfieId.

Making his trial trip with his new
automobile yesterday, on the 18th of
the month, was disastrous to William
C. Westcott, of IS Thomas street, who,
besides damaging his machine. had a
narrow escape from injuries to his fam
lily and ran down a man on a bicycle,
Westcott,, his wife and three children
and chauffeur, William r. Flat, went
to P~lainfeld yesterday afternoon in the
new car, on its initial trip. Westcott
was taking lessons from Flat in
handling the car. Going into Plainfield
ON Soutit avenue the machine was
passing the Scott Press Works and APP
preaching the corner of Richmond
street when William G. Bird, of Plain
field, formerly of Railway. came
through Richmond street. headed for
the same corner.
A collision was imminent, when Bird,
instead of turning, drove straight ahead
and got away, but Westcott tried TO
stop, and Just then meeting Charles
Davisscoming on his wheel, lost control
of the Steering gear and the machine
ran Davis down, then took an embank-
lment at the corner, ran up as far as
the sidewalk, and turned partly over
with the party of FIVE in it.,

When Mr.. Westcott. who is a CLERK
for the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, was seen at his home today, he
said:
Il had my power shut off while turn
ing the corner and was blowing my
horn. Bird was not sounding a danger
signal, and is to blame for the aeci-
dent. Mrs. Westcott is suffering from
shock today. I was able to bring my
machine home unfer it's own power

demonstrated yesterday to a party OF
business and newspaper men by an In
spection of the work already done by
the Newark Meade VS. Improvement
Company on the eastern side of the
Fassaic meadows. Three hundred acres
between the Pennsylvania main line
bridge and the Plank road bridge have
been reclaimed with the sand that the
ccmpany's dredges are taking u OF
the river and harbor in deepening the
channel, and work is being pushed
rapidly o1 the rest of the compsny's
holdings. The reclaimed land is firm
and strong enough To- form a founda-
ton for a skyscraper. A wide street,
to run through the length of the plot
now being reclaimed, parallel to the
river, Is under process of construction.
A spur of the railroad will be run
down the centre of tho street now being
built. Two plots. with the riparian
rights, have already been sold, and as
soon as the street and railroad spur
are completed, it Is expected hat II
OF them, a lumber company, of Allen

Mrs. Campbell Clark, whose wide
spread charities are generally known,
today set the seal of her approval on
tired mothers by sending a gift of $25
to the STARS Free Ice and Outing
Fund. A check for that amount was
enclosed in a note which read:

This gift Is the more welcome in that
1t comes from one whose experience In

this particular purpose. The John

original contributions makes the
amount credited to them S.. 50s IA COM

sent $40 and j. Fred Wilson 81. The
fund now amounts to $2,065.SS.
With the expense of the outings and
the ice which is being distributed in
large quantities every day to- homes
where poverty and sickness are in
league, the tax on the. fund is large
and steady, and the generous who have
not yet contributed to it are asked to
show their appreciation of a big, prac-
tioal philanthropy in that practical
way.
The STAR can only direct this cam
paign for the ailing little ones, as the
real soldiers are the contributors to
+ the fund, n to them must so the
credit for the widespread relief whic!,
Is every day being extended to the sun
baked tenements where it is most
needed. More money for the fund
means even wider opportunities in this
hummer rescue work. for physicians
III have watched the outings and ac-
companied them declare that more
than one baby's life has beer saved by
one of the long cool sails down the bay
and a day spent on the beach.
