A Yoqa's Feat.

For fourteen years Bava Luchman
Dass received from the priests of the
Black caves Of Central India the
necessary education in order to be-
come yoga, as a yoga must be ca
pable of taking the forty-eight pos
lures Of the Hindoo idols.
Perhaps his greatest trick consists
in balancing himself on the ends, Of
his fingers while the whole of his body
is IN the air. Bava stated that in or
der to obtain the rank of yoga in the
Black caves of India he had to con-
tinue in this position on the ends Of
his fingers under the eyes of the
judges, without seconds interval,
for seven days and nights.

Lad With a Bandaged Wrist and An

A small boy with an armful of news
papers was struggling with another at
the mouth of the subway station, CIV
ing vent to subdued cries the while.
Cit away! Look out fer me arm!"
he said to the other, who had no pa

They made just enough noise to
attract the attention of the persons
leaving the subway and then the boy
with the papers showed in front of the
travellers a wrist heavily bandaged
and appealed for patronage on that
ground.
"Ill bet he and the other boy divvy

refused to buy paper. "All he wants

CHOICE OF A BRiAR PIPE.
Get One Which Is Smooth Inside the
Bowl. Says the Coilegian.

Get One Which Is Smooth Inside the
Bowl. Says the Coilegian.
A collegian who prides himself on
the sweetness and color OF his brlal'
wood pipes and pretends to know a
lot more about them than any ordt
nary smoker spent half an hour In a
tobacco shop a few afternoons ago
making an addition to his already
large collection.
Some pipes he discarded because OF
the grain in the wood; there was too
much stripe or too much birds eye,
he remarked. When he found one
which suited him he put it aside until
he had gathered three or four which
apparently were all right, and then
came his final test TO pick out the
best Of them all.
He held each with the bowl toward
the light, then slowly rubbed his little
finger inside. Two he discarded. then
repeated the operation with the 9TH
ers until only one remained out of
the discard. That one he bought.
Want 'em smooth inside" ne ex-
planned. "A briar pipe roughly fin
tshed inside the bowl isn't worth
bothering with. I wouldn't take one
for a gift; wouldn't take the trouble
to try to break it in, for it will never
be any good. 1t won't cake up right
and it'll never be nice and sweet.
I've got theory that when the
inside of the bowl is rough all the lit
tie edges and points of the wood char
and burn the first time you smoke it..
and burnt pipe is no good. That's
why always take pipe that has a
bowl as smooth on the inside as on
the out.
Then it doesn't char, but cakes up
evenly and gets good in little time.
Maybe the theory is wrong, but it has
worked out we'll in my own experience
and some of my friends who have
tried it agree with me-"

Like RattIesnake Meat.

"Once upon time / met an old
man out in Arizona that said the only
meat he had tasted in over year was
that Of rattlesnake," said B. w. Sat
terfield of Kirkville. Mo-, at the Tul-
lane. THe swore that rattlesnake
meat was delicate and good to eat.
He would stew it, SO he said, until all
chances for any venom were elimi-
mated. He would then dry 1t in the
sun, and in two or three days it would
be like crisp bacon. His story was
hard to believe, but many who knew
him declared tito be the truth. May.
be they took me for a tenderfgpt and
tried to string me-"

Swordfish Fights School of poafisf

S"o'oisH FiSftS oCHooI OI bo8n6n,
A 400-pound swordfish engaged in q
battle with school OF dogfish was
captured by the crew Of the schooner
Galatea, which arrived at wharf yes
terday.
The Galatea was at anchor off Chat
ham Saturday when the crew noticed
a commotion in the water. Two men
rowed over in dory and witnessed
remarkable battle. The swordflsh was
standing off a whole school of dogfish.
The swordfish would charge right and
left with his weapon. One fish after
another was impaled upon his sharp
sword, while his side cuts sent many
of the small sharks out of the watsF-
The doefsh closed in on him and ters
huge pieces out of his sides. He sbceh
them all of each time, however.
In the meantime the fishermen re-
turned to the schooner and got q
harpoon. They drove this into the big
fish and he gave UP the fight.

COLLECTION OF GOLF cURIos.
Clubs by Famous Maker-oid Tom
Morris Putter

Morris Putter.
Harry B. Wood of Manchester pos
sesses probably the most valuable
collection of golf curios in the world.
His club museum is unique. There Is
a fine specimen of a left handed club,
ence the property of the famous
champion Thomas Robertson, better
known at st. Andrews as kill the
Cuddie," from his having accident
ally killed donkey with golf ball
Among other clubs collected by Mr..
Wood are several by a famous maker
named Philips, whose clubs were In
great demand in the early part of the
nineteenth century. They have been
extensively initiated in consequence,
though not with more success than has
crowned the efforts of violin makers
who have sought to reproduce the
perfect form and rich tone of Stradi-
varius. Used and owned successfully
by old Tom. Morris, his sons Jimmy
and young Tom is a putter which
bears all the characteristics of Philips
clubs-the gracefully modelled neck,
thin face, the rounded contour of the
head, the grain of the wood and ia
pering shaft.
Another specimen is a fine baffy
spoon, formeriJ the property of Mr..
Fulton, who used to play golf in the
early days of the Manchester club,
founded in 1913. The head is made of
apple wood and the joint is wrapped
with thick, coarse twine, the strands
of which were rolled together and
afterward waxed. There is also pur-
ter made in 1870 by David Brown, an
ex-champion and brother to Lang

WOMEN OYSTER GATHERERs.
Many Have Made Small Fortunes al
the Work in France.

The work of oyster collecting and
culture is most unsuitable for women,
but in France. owing to its tedious
nature, it does not appeal to men.
Often from an early hour in the
morning till late into the evening the
women are standing up to the knees
in water with strong sun beating
down on them. The result is that
never a year passes without some of
them going mad and having to be
hurried away to the asylums.
The work is we'll paid, as indeed it
ought to be, while in the case OF the
few who own beds the profits are
large and small fortunes are quickly
amassed.

Asleep in Jesus.

Albert H. Johnson departed
this life in Pukwana, South
Dakota, Aug. 26th, at the early
age of 80 years. He was bap-
tized and confirmed in the Dan
ish Lutheran Church; but lat=
er, on leaving home, he became
a member of the English Luths
eran Church. During a resid-
ence of two years in Denver he
was a consistent and active
member of ST. Paul's church, of
which the writer has the honor
to be pastor. In this day, when
so many young men neglect the
church, his religious life was a
worthy inspiration and ex-
ample. He will be sadly mis-
sed in the church, and in his
home. We will not think of
him as dead, but as simply hav-
ing gone on before, to be with
Jesus. May our heavenly
Father comfort and sustain the
bereaved family and friends!
And may they be able to realize
the blessed truth of the poets
words, spoken as he babe his
own loved one FAREWELL
THY day has come, not gone
Thy sun has risen, not set
Thy life has passed beyond the reach
OF change or death. not ended, but
begun. -
o gentle heart o noble SOUL
Hail and farewell"
