You will notice, too, that a fish, bear

be about to devour his family. The re-

Sometimes he has taken his inspiration
from local history. One of his

scenes in the lives of the Lords of

Boer war and the death of Colonel De

Another Wel-kn0wn Hermit
Whose Favorite Dish Is
Hedgehog Baked in Clay.

IL may b said. indeed, without any
exaggeration, that they have made the
reputation both of Rotheneuf and its
hermit"
Many times while shooting on the
marshes near Sandwich, on the south
east coast of England, have I met an
old man who for over twenty years has
lived, winter and summer, in a rough
looking hut, rooted ove with sacks and
rushes. 1t is built close to a dyke from
which he gets his water, and the bushes
and reeds fringing the streams supply
him with fire, bed and roof. Occasion
ally he shifts his quarters to fresh
ground, but always pitches beside a
stream. A rough. unkempt figure he
looks.
His skin is tanned almost to a copper
color by long exposure to wind and sun,
and bears many wrinkles left there by
the hand of Father Time, for the old
fellow is over SO. Collecting watercress,
catching cells and gathering mushrooms
to sell in the ~neighboring villages form
his means of livelihood. Some years
ago he used a gun, but hard times and
the absence of wild fowl in the num-
bers that Use to visit those parts have
caused the old man to sell 1t. Some
times. while going to the flight at sun
set, we have come N him lighting his
fire for the evening meal, the kettle
slung from a hooked bar, and "Old
jack as we call him, preparing some
thing for his pot.
A hedgehog baked in clay is his fav-
orite dish. He car tell you where is
the most likely spot TO get a shot at
the morning or evening flight, what
birds passed over his wigwam in the
morning on their way out to sea, and
the lines they take in returning at
dusk. Jack" as he is called, Is often
visited by local gunners, who give him
q few coppers and some tobacco. for the
old man dearly loves his pipe.@une

AN EXPLANATION.

The three-piece suit is really
only a two-piece suit, although
it combines three garments-bod-
ice, skirt and coat. II seems to
have been originally dubbed
'three-piece'' last spring, when
the fashion was to wear a skirt
and blouse of the same shade
and a coat to match the skirt.
This was really a three-piece
suit which gave the effect of a
complete dress and coat Later,
when whole gowns were made
and worn with coats. the name
seemed to cling, although the
suit changed its character.

DEMOCRATS And INSUR.
GENTS WIN The fight
POTed I'll Votes to liz for Amendment Of RrIu
Cannon Is Reelected Speaker.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. March l6.-
After one OF the stormiest sessions In
its history the House OF Representa-
tives yesterday. regardless of party
alignment, adopted. by a vote Of 2ll
to I72. a resolution of Mr.. Fitzgerald.
Democrat, OF New York, whereby the
rules we're amended in several import
ant particulars.
The resolution was a substitute for
one offered by Mr.. Clark Of Missouri.
Its adoption was accomplished only
after the insurgents, with the aid
OF the Democrats. with one or two eX-
ceptiOns. had won a decided prelimi-
nary victory by voting down a resOlu-
ton by Mr.. Dalzell Of Pennsylvania
making the unamended rules Of the
Sixtieth Congress applicable to those
Of the present Congress. The call of
the roll on the Clark resolution was
followed with intense interest.
Clark Starts colIoquy.
Such was the fever heat OF mem
bers that Mr.. Clark of Missouri got
into a spirited cOllOquy with Mr. Dial
cell. who had mounted the rostrum e.
read the resolution Of the minority
leader Mr.. Clark wanted him order
ed away from the desk. TO which pro.
ceeding MIR. Dalzell objected. saying
he had a right to know what the meas
ure contained This led to a contro-
versy with the Speaker. which lasted
long enough for Mr. Dalzell to get the
information he desired. and he step
ped from the platform and returned to

AS analysed by parliamentarians,
the amendment makes three important
changes:
