is decreasing because the supply Of

It may be doubted whether the order
to produce DR.. Cook as a witness in the
suit brought by Mr. Francke will do
much good. If it had been feasible to
find the explorer when the complaint

issued at that time. Mr.. Francke must
realize that his former employer is bet
ter qualified than any one else to rein

the new record for altitude beats the

margin, but it beats it all the same.

ANECDOTE OF CLAY.
Incident Showing the Esteem 4
Which the Senator Was Held.

Incident Showing the Esteem in
Which the Senator Was Held.
Adlai Stevenson, commenting on
Henry Clay, tells this anecdote, an ex-
change says:
Possibly since the foundation of tho
government, no statesman has been
so completely idolized by his friends
and party as was Henry Clay. Words
are meaningless when the attempt ID
made to express the idolatry of the
Wings of his own state for their great
chieftain. For a lifetime he knew no
rival. His wish was law to his fol-
lowers. In the realm of party leader
ship a greater than he hath not ap-
peared. At his last defeat for the
presidency strong men wept bitter
tears. When his star set it was felt
to be the signal for the dissolution Ut
the great party Of which he was the
founder. In words worthy to be re-
called, when the tidings came like
wailing over the state that Harry
Percy's spur was cold, the chivalrous
commonplace"
The following incident, along tbs
line indicated, may be considered char
acteristic. While Mr.. Clay was a SEN
ator a resolution in accordance with a
sometime custom was introduced into
the Kentucky house of representatives
instructing the senators from that
state to vote in favor of a certain
bill then pending in Congress. Tho
resolution was in the act Of passing
without opposition when a hitherto
silent member from one of the noun
tain counties. s%pringing to his feet,
exclaimed: Mr.. Speaker, am l to
understand that this legislature is un-
dertaking to tell Henry Clay how 10
voter" The speaker answered that
such was the purport Of the resolu-
ton. At which the member from thu
mountains, throwing up his arms, ex-
claimed. Great God!" and sunk into
his seat. 1t Is needless to add the
the resolution was Immediately re.
jected by an unanimous vote.

twenty-five, and the studies are those Of the usual IN

and the school physician makes regular visits, looking
after the needs of individual cases. Children have made
good progress physically, and have been able to keep up

half, the time the task Of ordinary school children,
raises the question as to whether similar methods in ee-

benefit Of all school children. On the grounds Of social

in the Great Eastern. That was in
1862. 1t was the first time the vessel
sailed into Liverpool. She had accom-.
modations for 10000 passengers, but
there were only 100 in her on that
trip.
You know she had both a propeller
and paddlewheels. AS long as she kept
going it vas all right, for she moved
along steadily and majestically, but
one day we were hailed by a small
French steamer that had mail to SEM
to Europe and we stopped short in
midocean while a boat put out from
the other vessel.

know, but the huge mountain Of a yes

well, to three months hard labor for
cruelty to two chafinches by binding
them, the London Daily Mail says.
8. G. Polhill, who prosecuted on BE-
half Of the Royal Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals, said
that the practice Of binding was re-
sorted to because birds so dealt with
were supposed to become better sony
sters or warblers. He was sorry to
say the practice had been going on
for many years, but in such secrecy
that this was the first occasion upon
which the society had been in a posi-
ton to prosecute. The operation was
carried out with needle, and was
done skilfully, so as not to burst the
eyeball. The birds adapted themselves
to their blind state in a wonderful
way. They fed and found their water
and jumped about the cage.
Arthur Wilmot, one of the socisty's
inspectors, produced the two blind
birds In court. He purchased them
for l shilling 6 pence from the prison
or at his house, where n room Was
full Of birds, at least ten Of which
were blinded chafdnches. The prisoner
said he himself had blinded them. but
that blinded vas a dangerous word
to use because II he were given
away" 1t would mean three months In
prison for him. He had been at 'the
game" he said, twenty years.
Alexander Pearce, veterinary sur
geon. said that in the birds produced
he came to the conclusion that the
optic nerve and the artery in the
center OF that nerve had been severed
by inserting a needle at tho bottom
of the eye. This operation paralyzed
the sight and made the bird totally
blind. while leaving the eye to the
casual observer the same as before
the operation. The suffering would be
acute.
The magistrate Ito the %prisoner):
You knew what the penalty was. It
is three months hard labor.
