by it's Latin name, and can get along
very we'll without it. This field mush-
room abounds in the pasture lots and
moors. After heavy rain It can be
gathered by the basketful. It is a
nutritious and palatable food, which
can be cooked and served In many
ways, all enticing and satisfying. In
its wild state it is more delicious than
any cultivated mushroom. One who

one who has fair acquaintance with

ONE MANS DEsPoTIC POWER
Train Dispatcher Holds Lives Of Pas
sengers In the Hollow Of His
Hand--Ais Word Law,

The train dispatcher. writes west
ern railroad man. performs the most
exacting and responsible duties that
can be crowded upon the shoulders Of
any one man. His word is law; his
instructions are obeyed to the letter.
for to deviate from them in the least
is to :0vite disaster. He is the man
who tells tho train and engine crews
when TO start their trains and when
to place them on sidetracks to meet
or to be passed by other trains. He
is the man who is doing the thinking
for 200 men and directing the move
ments of 20 or 80 and oftentimes more
trains at the same time
The train crews know nothing of
the location Of but one train-their
own-vhile tho train dispatcher must
know the location of them all and
keep item moving without accident or
delay, oftentimcs a very difficult thing
to do upon busy single-track rail-
road, get it is being done hour after
hour and day after day on the rail-
roads of the United States, Canada
and Mexico by this almost unknown
man, The train dispatcher; this man
who holds the lives Of every railroad
passenger and employe in the hollow
of his hand. whose slightest error
(Which seldom occurs). may result in
the sacrifice Of many human lives and
the loss OF property valued at thous-
ands IF dollars.

Evarts and the Great Scientist

the entire company in this way. Sena'
tor Evarts took from the cooler by
his side a champagne bottle which
contained perhaps a third Of its orig.
inal contents. He placed the bottle
upon the table.
Professor he said. I wish you
would explain to us why it is that. In
the lower part of any bottle contain
ing spirituous liquors the greater
strength is to be found. In other
words, why the upper half OF bot
tie Of champagne seems to be less
stimulating than the lower half
The professor looked quizically 1T
the bottle of champagne a few mo-
ments.
THAT is, indeed, very interesting
question; l never had it called to my
attention BEFORE he said at last. I
cannot at this moment offer more than
a surmise in the way of explanation;
but should be happy to make very
careful investigation, first, to estab'
lish the fact as you state 1t, and. Sec
ond. to discover the reason
WELL said Senator Evarts, I
think my own experience may aid Jou
in establishing the accuracy OF the
fact: but, as l am not learned In any
of the sciences, l am utterly at loss as
to the explanation.

Minister Condemns Il as Upbusjness-
IKE, Among Other Caustic
Criticisms

Rev. Moses Breeze is one OF those
militant preachers who believe the
churches and the ministry need over
hauling every now and then, and that
more than gentle reproofs are re-
quired to arouse them to action. in
an article in Munsey's, Joseph H.
Odell quotes Rev. Breeze as the au-
thor OF these epigrams:
IF the average business man ran
his business as the average church is
run. he would land on the financial
scrap-heap.'
One great proof to me that the
church is divine is that it stays on
earth and does business with SO little
business ability In it: if God were not
in it, it would have gone bankrupt
long ago."
The time has gone by when we
can trust the financial affairs of our
churches to the Cool Spirit who takes
care of little children and idiots"

How Peter Cooper invented the Glass
insuIator Which Made Possible
the Stringing Of Electric TEL
egraph Wires Above Ground.

! told recently an anecdote which
was narrated to me by the late Abram
s. Hewitt, mayor of New York from
1S87-1888. describing the manner III
which his father-in-law. Peter Cooper.
the philanthropist, invented an ap"
paratus by means Of which 1t was
possible to lay the first Atlantic cable
between the coast OF Newfoundaldn
and Ireland.
Mr.. Cooper's interest In the electric
telegraph began at much earlier
period than the time when Cyrus w.
F1e;s pivposed to him and to several
other men of capital that company
he organized to lay telegraph cable
upon the bed of the ocean. so that tel
cgraphic communication could be es-
tablished between the continent OF Eu-
rope and the United States.
