APPRECIATION FOR A POET
Sentimental Frenchmen Fave Better
Way Than That Displayed by
Colder English.

On the day it was announced that
the body of poor John Davidson had
been found, l read brief paragraph
showing how such a calamity might
easily have been avoided. The in
habitants of Tourcoing, in the north
of France. are very proud of their
local dialectic poet, NJ. Jules Wat
teun. Instead of waiting to erect a
statue to him after death they have
made sure that he shall be put be-
yond the reach of financial worry,
that bane of so many poets great and
small, during his lifetime. There
was demonstration in honor of M.
Watteun last year and a public sub
scription was opened. The sum COL
lected has now been utilized to build
the poet a house, which shall be his
during his lifetime and then revert
to the commune, and in addition to
secure him an annuity; while if his
death precedes that of his wife an
annuity of half the value will be paid
to her so long as she lives

terrific explosion occurred at Dis

timated at 100000, and SO wrecking
the place that work will be suspend

200 men out of work. Eleven gas-flled
boilers are used at the works to gen
crate steam for blowing the engines
which supply the furnaces with the
blast, and it is supposed that there
was an explosion of gas. The report
was terrific and the effect disastrous.
Three of the boilers were blown into
fragments, while a fourth was found
In field a considerable distance away.
The boiler is reported to have flown
through the air at a terrific speed. at
a height of about 60 feet. Just like
an aeroplane." Part of another boil

Chauffeur drove toward the gutter. but
as the dogs were fighting there had to
take another course. collidng finally
with stone wall and totally wrecking
the machine.
The owner of the car brought an &C
ton for damages against the owner of
the chicken. claiming that It was re-
sponsible for the damage. In giving
Judgment the court argued that there
was no doubt as to the chicken having
been the proximate cause of the acct
dent. for had it not crossed the road
the cat would not have scared the
pony; had the pony not been scared
the poodle would not have got out
OF the pony trap; had the poodle not
done so the automobile would not
have stopped and the collie and the
poodle would not have been in the
gutter; had the collie and poodle not
been in the gutter the cat would not
have hung round to see things
through; had the cat not remained on
the scene the chicken would not have
been trying to scale the wall. and had
the chicken not been trying to do this
the chauffeur would have kept his
nerve and saved the machine from &C
cident
Yet though the chicken caused the
accident the chickens act was not in
itself violent or dangerous. This
chicken would doubtless have made
a tender broiler; it was gentle and in
offensive, and not being ferae naturae
its destruction of the automobile was
unconscious and free from malice
Therefore the chicken not having ex-
ceeded it's common law rights the ac-
ton could not be maintained and judg-
ment was accordingly entered for the
defendant

ON HIS WAY to CINCINNATI

Il shall not soon forget my difficult

Heinrich. When | first arrived in
this country l was going to Cincin-
natl. I spoke not one word of Eng
fish. and they put me on a second
class train. 1t was summer and I had
a very heavy overcoat, steamer rug
and great big valises. I had no idea
how far It was to Cincinnati, but judg-
ing by my own country. thought it
only an hour or two. I began. when
we had been riding for an hour, to
think each station must be Cincin-
natl. l would arise, get all my be-
longings together, and say to the
conductor: Cincinnati? suppose
that he tried to tell me how far it
was, but, of course. did not under
stand him. You can imagine how fun
ny that was to the other passengers,
Tor | got up at every station all day
and night and far into the second day
with all my heavy bundles. o. so
warm, tired and perspiring. and called

the custom of coating things with
chocolate SO prevalent that he said
the people of his city had somethin .
in the line to learn from US. He di2

our chocolate lightly and for its own
sake quite as much as French people
do. we also approve OF 1t in our diet
for the nutritious qualities it DOS

THE CHICKEN AND THE CAR

case is reported in the Green Bag. 1t
says that as motor car was passing
quietly through a village in New En-.
land a chicken pursued by a cat sud
denly crossed the road just in front
of the automobile.
The sudden dash of the chicken and
cat startled pony. driven by two lit
tie girls, one of whom had a poodle In
her lap. The poodle jumped out TO
give chase to the cat and fell on the
road right in front of the car. causing
Its driver to pull up suddenly.
Just as this happened a collie travel
ing with its mistress in the car leaped
out and chased the poodle. which
frightened the pony so that II bolted

One on TyndsII.

In his autobiography, just published,
the late Prof. Shaler of Harvard tells
this story: Once he was present al
a dinner in England where Tyndall.
the renowned scientist, started to tell
about experiences in America. His
descriptions were, to say the least. ex.
aggerated. Just as he was telling
about a thrilling escape from drown
ing which he had had while viewing
Niagara falls-describing it with
bursts of hyperbole-his eye hap
pcned to catch that of Shaler, whom
he had not noticed before.
For a moment Tynda;i stopped,
abashed-then, with wink of the eve.
IS If begging Shaler not to give him
away" he continued the tale, but in a
noticeably subdued vein
At its conclusion Tyndall sought
Shaler.
It fear that yarn of mine was rather
highly colored." he confessed to the
American, but 1t is sometimes neces-
sary to touch up the truth a bit"

Natural Ventilation

In cold weather the escape of air
from closed. warm rooms through the
porosity of walls and the leakage
around doors and windows is much
greater than is usually supposed. In
some experiments by Arthur ID. Lit
tie OF Boston, a room of 615 cubic feet
was in the second story Of an ordinary
elapboarded frame dwelling and the
interior walls and ceilings were plas-
tered and papered, the single window
made as tight as possibly by putty.
and the inner door was fitted with
weather strips. Even in this room,
natural causes made almost two COM
plete changes of air an hour, as shown
by tests of the carbolic acid. 1t would
be interesting to know how the rate
changes with the differences between
outside and inside temperature, and
what cinerence gives an ordinary
tight" family living room safe ven
tilation.

INTELLIGENCE OF THE FOX
AnlmS! Apparently Is Able to Dis
tinguish Between Real and
False Dangers.

The intelligence of the fox is often
shown by the way he refuses to be
beaded when he has made up his mind
as to the safe course to take, says the
London Globe. The West Somerset
have an excellent fixture at Kilve, but
1t has one drawback-the sea is not
tar off, and foxes naturally often
make for the cliffs, a secure refuge. A
FOX can be easily headed at times. but
that is nearly always when to be seen
would betray him to his enemies the
hounds and give them an advantage;
but when, if he makes his point. the
advantage is on his side, then nothing
will turn him.
To return to the West Somerset at
Kilve: they found fox, and the whip
perrin, seeing that the fox meant to
60 to the cliffs If possible, started to
head him off. The ground was open,
and FOR half mile the whipper-in and
fox were taking parallel lines, the fox
clearly meaning to slip by and find
refuge in the cliffs. The man turned
the fox away at last, but in a short
time the hounds lost him, and l be-
heve he got back after all.
Again the master ranged up some Of
the field to prevent another fox going
back into a certain covert In vain
whips were ratified against saddle
flaps; the fox went right through the
watchers and made his point. Ii is

Il don't want your fortune, said Miss

much for it.

Then he snorted in his wrath. You don't
want my fortune!" he repeated. "Ha! that's
good! It's rich! But you do want my son; is
that it?''

matters much That's hardly the gallant
way of putting it, Mr.. Cornell" she suggested.
Il should rather say that he seems to want
me"

man, when the young fool doesn't know his

moments reflection; but he ought to know
the things impossible. An actress! When he

A'A didn't pick your wife from the pick of
New York did you, Mr.. Cornel?" she asked
sweetly.
That's got nothing to do with it, stormed
the millionaire. Conditions in my case were
altogether different"
But you rich mans son., she pur

He had been walking nervously up and down
the room; but at that he stopped to glare at
her. Certainly not!" he said firmly. Il had
more sense than to run after tights and tinsel
