A kinu's Hobby,

The late king of Siam had an extraor- dinary hobby-that of collecting empty matchboXes of all nations. In this connection an interesting story is re- lated. During one of his visits to Eng land the king while passing down Bond street one afternoon. accompanied by two members of his suit. espied an empty matchbox which had been dis carded by its owner and thrown away into the middle of the thoroughfare. Without moments thought the mon- arch dashed into the middle of the crowded traffic. grasped the much cov- eted treasure and was nearly run over by a passing cab. The fact. however. that he was able to add a new speci- men to his collection gathered under such circumstances more than com pensated him for the risk which he had run.-London News.

MOSCOW CATHEDRAL.
Fantastic Looking Edifice Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.


 One of the most extraordinary and fantastic Christian places of worship in the world is the Cathedral of Mos COW, known as Vasili Blajenni, strange not only in outline and conception, but even stranger in it's history. No one knows the architects name, but the story goes that the cZar ordered his eyes to be put out directly the church was completed. so that he should nev- CT be able to surpass his work. The idea of the building was inspired by the wickedest and maddest monarch who ever sat on throne-Ivan the Terrible, czar of Muscovy.
 The architecture is in every respect extravagant and barbaric. and the col bring is garish in the extreme It has nine chapels, roofed by nine cupolas, each different and each stranger than the other. One resembles a pineapple, another a melon. third is said to ape a hedgehog in its appearance, and the rest are more or less grotesque. Some are gilt; others are painted in brilliant hues. Indeed. the only description is that it is1a nightmare of church, the fitting legacy of a ruler who grilled his counselors in frying pans and clothed his subjects in bearskins in order that trained dogs might worry and tear them to pieces.-Strand Maga- zine.

No Laws Delay Here.

In Peral, in the Malay peninsula, lawyers find no business, for modi fled form of trial by ordeal decides all disputes. In place of the legal practi- tioner the pleader is q native boy who Is assigned to one or the other of the sides and is given q bamboo tube iu which is sealed the pleading of the person or party whom he represents. When all is ready two stakes are driven into the bed of q stream, and by aid of q bamboo pole the heads of the two boys are submerged at tho same time. By grasping the stakes they are enabled to remain under Wa ter for quite awhile after their natural inclination would bring them to the surface, but at last one of them gives in and, releasing his hold of the stake. comes to the air. He is immediately seized and the tube he holds is cast aside. The other lad is led ashore his tube opened, and the document con tained therein stands as the decision in the case.

Scott Relics at Abbotsford.

The present estate of Abbotsford was formed during the years 1911 to 1871 from various small farms. the first one purchased bearing the "inharmo- nious designation" Clarty Hole. After Sir Walter Scotts death in 1884 com. mittee of friends collected fS.O00 to- ward the redemption of the estate, and Mir. Cadell, the publisher. contributed the rest on receiving the rights over Scott's works. The library and mu- scum had been given some years be fore by the creditors. AS his son Lieutenant Col1ael w. Scott. died on his way home from India, the prop erty descended to J. k. Lockhart. his son-in-law, and thence to his daugh- ter's husband, J. R. Hope-Scott, whose daughter held the estate for some years. Many Scott relics are preserv- ed in the house. notably his chair and writing table in the study and his ha! and gloves in the hall.-London Stand ard

Why He Wanted Reference..

At Il credit mens dinner one of the veterans told this story: "In the recon struction days q man from Missis- sipPi valley town came to our western house one day. We had sold him be fore ill small way, and he always paid. He had enlarged his business, he told us, and wanted q bigger line than usual, but before making his sc lectiUns he wanted Us to give him ref erences. We expressed surprise at such an unheara of demand, but he said, My two brothers-in-law have gone in with inc. and they re very par ticular ats to whom they do business with So we sent him to our banks, and he came back, said we were all right, picked out q big line of goods. and in sixty days he busted We couldn't collect dollar.

Hard For the Eskimos,

One of the difficulties of the Mora vian missionaries in Labrador is to make the Old Testament. with it's wealth of pastoral detail, ineligible 70 the Eskimos, not one of whom has ever seen a horse. "Sheep and cattle" " says Hesketh Pritchard in Hunting Camps In Wood and Wilderness,
 they cannot realize or conceive of. for there are no domesticated animals save dogs in that portion of the benin sula. They comprehend the story Of Esau. the hunter, and that of Samson and the lion. which animal can be translated as polar bear, but of Abra- ham ill the land of MesOpotamia they can form no picture. The nearest ap- proach to these ideas is drawn from the harvest of the sea, seals and fish taking the place of flocks and herds"

MistIetoe a Menace.

Few people who know mistletoe only as a desirable feature of Christmas decorations understand that the plant is parasite dangerous to the life of trees in the regions in which it grows. It is only a question of time after mistletoe once begins to grow upon a tree before the tree itself will be killed. The parasite saps the life of the infected branches. Fortunately it is of slow growth. taking years to de velop to large proportions. but when neglected it invariably ruins all. trees it reaches. The only method of exter- imitation is the cutting down of dis eased trees.-Exchange

UISLIKES INNOVATIONS.
Hence the Rhino BIindly Attacks Any
 thing New to Him.

thing New to linn.
 Sir Frederick Treves, the distinguish ed British surgeon. in his book "Ugan- ia For a Holiday has word or two to say about the rhinoceros.
 ''The rhinoceros is the embodiment of blind conservatism he writes. "ItS hide is impenetrable, it's vision is weak, while it's intellect is weaker. It has, however, two marked qualitieS-com- bativeness and a sense of smell. IL IS aroused to it's maximum energy by the presence of anything that is new. This object need not be thing that is az gressive or inconvenient. Its offensive ness depends upon the fact that 1t Is unfamiliar, and the more unfamiliar the object is the worse the rhinoceros gets.
 "When a rhinoceros smells a man he will charge him with maniacal vio- lence, although the man may be mere ly sitting on stool reading Milton. The massive beast will dash at him like a torpedo or runaway locomo- tive simply because the smell of him is novel, Actuated by this insane hate of whatever savers of an innovation. the rhinoceros has charged an iron wa ter tank on the outskirts of camp and has crumpled it up as blacksmith would an empty meat tin.
 GA conservative rhinoceros with senile dislike of anything new once charged a train on the Uganda railway. but with no more serious results than the tearing away of the footboard of carriage. As regards the rhinoceros in this case, it appeared surprised that a thing composed, as it had imagined, of flesh and blood could be so hard. It went off with an additional grievance | and an increased swelling of the head"

Gothic Architecture.

Gothic architecture began about the ninth century after Christ and soon began to spread all over Europe. Its great feature is the pointed arch, and it was at first called the pointed style" Most of the glorious old world cathedrals are in the Gothic, and it is generally conceded that for religious purposes no other style of architecture is so perfectly suited. It has been said that the first idea of the Gothic was suggested by the interlacing boughs and trunks of the great woods in which German Christianity was formed; hence the name Gothic.-New York American.

a Salem bachelor, signing himself
G. c. Lynn, contributes the following
tale of woe to the Statesman. If G.
C's wooing is as punk as his poetry, it
is not at all strange that ne is still sin
gle. He says:
I'm sitting alone by the ireside,
Dressed just as l came from the
dance
And feeling of awe comes DER me,
When l think of my circumstance.
As through the field each day / trod,
Behind my weary team,
My thoughts recall the happy days.
When my heart with JOY did beam.
Alas! I am a bachelor now,
And vainly do | strive
To capture for myself a frau,
But folks forget that l really am
alive.
When to my shack of solitude,
From my toll l serenely glide,
There's no one there to welcome me
No one in whom to confide.
So ! calmly put the meat
In the pan to fry;
The coffee boils, the beans are done
Dinners ready for Me, Myself and 1.

A STREAK OF YELLOW.

According to the Oregonian's Wash
jngton correspondent, the Republican
regulars" profess to see great ulti-
mate good for the party in the elm
ination of Speaker Cannon from the
political game, and are also freely
predicting that it will result in the de-
feat of the insurgents" in the coming
elections. If the elimination of Can
nonism was such a grand, good thing
for the party, why should these reg
ulars'' desire the defeat of the men
who eliminated him? If the defeat of
Cannon was good for the party (and
it was.) it furnishes the greater rea-
son why those Republicans who had
the courage of their convictions TO
help oust him should be returned to
Congress next term. The O-egonian
correspondent goes on to say that
Speaker Cannon is perhaps the heav-
lest burden the Republican party is
asked to bear If this is true, (and it
isl then why are not the men who
have fought long and courageously
to help rid the country and party Of
the burden entitled to reward?
The fact of the business is, some OF
these regular" leaders in the house
are politicians Of the yellowest order
AS long as Speaker Cannon was on
top, they were with him early and late
right or wrong. But now, when the old
man is down, they break their necks
to get away from him. Fright
ened out of their wits by the returns
from the recent congressional elections
in Massachusetts,, where a Democrat
was elected by a heavy majority in
one of the strongest Republican dis
tricts in the United States, these erst-
while Cannon funkies. especially
few of them from the West and Mid
die West, will now be heard shouting
the loudest for the preservation of the
party, when the fact is. and every
sensible man knows it, that this de-
feat is the result of the work Of the
Cannon -Aldrich crowd in the last
congress.
The insurgents" need have no fear
of the regular" opposition in the
coming elections. for just about that
time the regulars" will be finding IT
necessary TO devote their entire ener-
gies to saving their own political hides.
