carvino Watch.

"After carrying a watch for thirty years I have just learned something new in watch lore" said the city sales man. q don't know whether this h true or not, but an old watchmakef told me. bought q watch of him the other day. It was cheap watch. He said:
 "'What pocket are you going to car ey your watch in-the right or left?
 'T told him the left.
 Then said he, I will regulate 1t for the left
 T asked what difference 1t made, and he declared that a watch runs faster on the left side than on the right, so to keep it from gaining time he regulates 1t accordingly. In fine watches the difference is hardly worth considering, but in watches of cheap make like mine 1t is very noticeable 1 asked for a scientific reason for this variation. He could give none; said he only knew 1t was true, and then. whether he was fak1ng or not, he pre- tended to regulate my watch for the left pocket York Sun.

Scotland and Horse Racine.

Scotland has been famous for its horses from the most ancient days. When Agricola defeated the Caledo- mans at the battle of the Grampians, A. D. 84, the Celtic enemy, as Tacitus relates, were exceptionally strong in cavalry and charioteers. Successive kings of Scotland did much to improve its native breed of horses, and in this connection 1t is not to be forgotten that the first Scottish king of Eng. land, James l.. did more to improve the race horses in our island than was ever done before him or has ever been done by any individual since. James I. was the real author of horse racing as 1t has since been known in England He 1t was who first established regu- lar courses, and during his reign there came into being the code of regula- tons that led up to the modern laws of the turf Nobody denies that horse racing has done much for the breed of British horses. It was gift from scotland.-London Answers.

Sixina Up Bernard Shaw.

Bernard Shaw Is thus immortalized by Charles Hawtrey, the we'll known English comedian: "Once on a time 1 had a mad desire to produce Shaw's play of You Never Can Tell wrote to Shaw and asked his permission. He answered that he would come and read 1t to me. He did and began by yaying that sometimes he thought 1t was the best play that ever was writ ten and at others he considered 1t tho greatest trash. Anyhow, he was of opinion that 1t was a pretty poor play and that if l produced it-well. must take the consequences. Some time afterward l asked Shaw if l could compress the last act. He declined to allow one line to be altered or cut out. In view of certain contingencies I had at last to tell him that couldn't pro- duce the play. His a1swer was: Thank you so much! Yoa have taken q great load off my mind Now, what are you to do with man like that?'- Minneapolis Journal.

Whv tlA> judne PaA.

A physician, says a medical 5oufa that youches for the truth of the story, was once summoned in haste to attend the child of family that lived in two rooms in tie heart of large American city-not New York. The child had been seized suddenly and seriously and just at election time. The mother was in despair, and when the doubt ful prognosis was given she broke into wailing and violent self condem- nation fer some horrible sin of the family to which she said the child's Illness was due-a direct punishment for their crime. She would go and curse the magistrate for 1t all, her husband should resign" from "the force," and such evil ways should be senounced forever
 Curious to know how the magistrate could be held responsible for the child's illness, the doctor finally SC cured the confession that the crime of the poor, conscience stricken woman consisted in allowing t7e names of many fraudulent voters to be regis tered as residing in her house, 1n swearing to the lie. etc. The magis- trate also had demanded this of all the neighbors in return for indescr1b- able political favors.
 The child recovered, and the magis- hate paid the physicians bill

The only china used at private 61n- ners at the Knickerbocker in New York Is the bleue de sevres, which was made in France especially for this hotel. with blue and gold pattern and the monogram of the hotel on the rim of each piece. There are seventy-two pieces to set, and each piece cost S6. At the Plaza and Astor the cost of each piece is $4 and s respectively, and designs are white and gold and plain white with border of asters. Great care has been taken and large expense incurred in obtaining the choicest china for the Waldorf-Astoria. For select private dinners the crown" Set is used, consisting of specimens from the sets of royalty dating from the time of Napoleon to the present. The pattern Is blue and gold border with a picture in the center of each piece of the king and queen to whom that particular piece belonged.

A0O1x MSuZci, tuc 0cTudu dI tAHI 1t one time engaged on mural deco ration. He had rigged up scaffoldins in his studio, on which his model was requested to stand. For two long hours the poor poseu: stood up aloft In 6 most fatiguing posture. Menze; in the meantime worked at his sketch. needless of the fact that his model waa growing tired.
 At length the model found it neces. sary to speak. Herr professor said he, "how about recessY'
 Menzel apologized profusely for his forgetfulness. Certainly, certainly, ny dear sir" said he. Come down ard rest yourself bit"
 The model had clambered from the raffolding to the ladder. which led town from 1t to the studio floor.
 "Stop!' cried tue artist suddenly 'rhat pose is fine! Don't move mus c.a"
 And once more the model was forced Into strained rigidity, while the enthu- siastic draftsman set about sketching him.
 At the end of half an hour Menzel looked up from his work. ''There," :" said he; "that will do nicely! Get back on the scaffold. We have had our rest. Let us get back to work again." ]"
 What the model said is left to the readers imagination.

writer in Australasia, was also on
board the Mariana lie is looked
upon as the w. w, Naughton of the

ney Referee has attracted the atten-
zion Of the world. Corbett is going
through TO write up the big fight fof
his paper. He is well known to all
the big sporting men of the world,
and is a very genial man.
Old Bob Fitzsimmons was loung-
ing along the steamer rail when APP
preached by the sporting scribes. The
old Timaru blacksmith looks about
thirty-five years of age. and he GER
.tainly wears well. He had a crouch
on and was peeved at everything.
On hearing that he was not supposed
to be. OF board the Mariana, a cable
having been received cancelling his
reserved stateroom on the Wilhel-
nina, Bob became annoyed. What
are they giving me?" he snarled;
why, was billed for Brisbane. Suva
and here TO perform.
Robert was very snappy, and II
was easy to see that he and the rest
of the bunch of sports were at outs.
f'itz continued his passage to Van.
couver last night. He was around
town early In. the afternoon, but
went down on board the Mariana at
o'clock and never showed up again.
Billy Woods. who fought Fitz years
ago, was looking for the one-time
worlds champion. but there was
nothing doing, as Bob had gone to
sleep. 'r'' .',' - AiNJ}.
Hugh Mcintosh was busy man
from the moment Jack, Scully board
ed the Mariana, and the two man
ayers got together and started to
talk over things in connection with
! the show. There was trouble from
the start, as Burns and Lang had
no idea of going fifteen rounds. In
fact, Mcintosh wanted the men &c
box only four rounds. Scully would
| not hear OF that, as he had adver'
tised that the go was to be for fif.
teen rounds, and he did not want t.
break faith with his hundreds Of
friends and patrons.
Eventually It was arranged that
Burns and Lang should go siN
rounds and that Burns should also
have a three-round bout with Q
sailor of the Cleveland. There wa
much heated argument before ar
agreement was come 10, and at ont
time 1t looked as II scully woult
throw up the whole proposition. How
ever, the show came of, and every
body was satisfied and all know tina
Jack scully is in no way to blam'
for the cutting down OF the humble
Of rounds. And, anyhow, It woul'
have been very dreary to have sa
down and watched Lang and Burn
fool around for fifteen two-minut

SEEK TO INTEREST COPPER
COUNTRY FARMERS IN WHEAT

1t Is very probable that two wheat
growing experts will soon be sen;
among the farmers of The copper
country by the Michigan State Mill
ing association for the purpose of
telling the farmers just whether the
lands which they have under culti-
walton or the other lands which they
could have under cultivation are the
kind of lands which have the capacity
of producing wheat in sufficient guam
titles and of a sufficiently high grade
10 make wheat culture in the counties
of the Kewennaw peninsula profitable
1t is the aim OF the association TO en-
courage the farmers of thhe state 10
raise larger crops of wheat and other
grains for milling, as the amount OF
wheat now produced in the state is
not large enough to keep 1.-THE mills
OF the southern part OF the state run
ming continuously. causing loss 10

In line with the work of the assoc
citation, the secretary has written To
John r. Mcnamara, secretary of the

ty and the Copper Country Fair, ask
ing that the fair association and the
agricultural society cooperate with
the milling association i'm getting the
farmers of this section to take a more
active interest in the growing of
wheat The association proposes TO
send two of their experts to this dis
trict just prior TO the opening of the
fair in Houghton. These men will Wis

over their acres, ask them their ex-

services viii be paid for by the mill
tall upon the fair association or the
farmers of this section, Mr.. McNam-

be accepted at the next session of the
