lined above are assigned to the sup

the above duties of the superintend-
ent. Respectfully submitted,

Entertaining Royalty.

Nothing puts a bigger feather In
the cap of II society hostess, says the
London Saturday Journal, or at the
same time causes her more anxious
cares and thought rather than mere
expenditure than the presence at one
of her dinners or dances In the huge
Mayfair mansion of a member Of the
royal family-most Of all the king and
queen. The entertaining Of royalty Is
one Of the most delicate triumphs the
society woman, whether she be a
duchess or merely n millionairess, can
achieve. 1t has code OF etiquette
all to itself-a code which must be
rigidly observed or no hope is there
Of ever securing another visit from a
royal guest Of the reignlng house. The
number Of titled and untitled guests
hidden to meet the sovereign at, say,
n dinner party is strictly limited and
Of course highly select. On one oc-
casion $4,000 was spent by n hostess
in entertaining crowned head for a
week end, while another example is
that of certain baronet who had
marble staircase put in his house sole
ly because Of an approaching visit
from the late king.

Poe's Short Stories.

There are IN the best Of Poc's brief
tales II constructive skin, command
of design aud gift Of decoration rare
IN any literature and almost unknown
In English, which Is ever unduly negli-
gent of form. And no one need won
der that poe'S short stories wandered
swiftly out of our languages into
French and Italian and Spanish, into
German and Scandinavian and Bohe-
mian, into strange tongues where no
other American author, except Feni-
more Cooper, had ever before pene-
trated. His weird psychologist studies
have influenced later writer's rs unlike
as AIaupassant and Richepln, Fltz-
james, O'Brlen, Robert Louis Steven
son and Rudyard Kipllng. His tales Of
n mystery solved ut last by observa-
tion and deduction have been initiated
by Dumas and Sardou, by Gaboriau
and Boisgobey, by Wilkie Collins and

ternational recognition In the final
years Of the nineteenth century, is the
.elncarnation of figure first projected
by Poe.-Brander Matthews in Cen

Due Precautions,

In n town In Georgia there was an
old preacher whose knowledge of the
world was not wide nor deep, but who
conceived 1t to be place where, IL
one should trust his fellow men, he
should at the same time keep an eye
on his own interests.
One hot day he pulled off his coat
and preached vigorous sermon under
the pines In his shirt sleeves. At the
close of the open air service one Of
his admirers approached him and said
regretfully:
II don't suppose you knew that the
editor of one Of the big New York
Sunday papers was here when you
pulled off your coat"
al reckon l knew 1t we'll, for I'd been
told Of it." said the preacher calmly.
II don't believe he's as bad as he
might be, and anyway put my coat
on the chair close by and had 1t right
under my eye all the time, youths

A Siqn Of a Crowd,

A very fat, putting, elderly woman
stepped up to the box office Of the
Chestnut Street theater and, placing a
coin on the ticket window, said:
"Give me ticket to the gallery"
"You are at the wrong window,
madam" said the ticket seller. The
gallery ticket Office is to your left as
you go out Of the door"
The old woman walked down the
steps and, advancing few feet, glanc-
ed around inquiringly and then let her
gaze wander TO the iron fire escape
which was suspended above the side
walk.
Going back to the main box office,
she said:
"Say, me boy, Oh can't get In there;
It's crowded"
"Crowded"
"Sure, 1t must be-" she said. "They
have the steps pulled up."-Philadel-
phia Times.

rrioklnu a Game Warden.

When a game warden bought seven
pounds Of meat and paid doAar
pound for 1t he thought he was get
ting some pretty convincing evidence
against a man In Herkimer county
whom he supposed to be chronic
vlolator OF the game law. The pro-
tector found this particular piece Of
meat In an icehouse one hot August
day, and he spotted 1t for venisOn.
"What will you take for that chunk
OF meat?" he asked the owner.
That's n tender piece of meat" re-
piled the woodsman, with wink at
the stranger, "and meat is dear way
back up here. wouldn't part with it
for less n a dollar a pound
well, give me pound"
"Nope; couldn't do that. It would
spile the piece for cookin' to do that"
The game warden had to take the
whole thing, and he paid 81 for It, sat
isfied that he had caught one Of the
worst game law violators in the Adj
rondacks. Down to Albany he sent
the meat for the forest, fab and game
commission to analyze to prove 1t ven-
ison. But It wasn't. 1t was veal.
The backwoodsmen tell the story as
one of the best jokes ever played on a
game protector.-New York Tribune.

The Handkerchief Came Erom ltaIx.

A writer In French review points
out that the handkerchief does not
come to us from China, as has been
generally believed, but from Italy 1t
is only 800 years ago that the hand
kerchief of Venetian lady was con.
sidered great curiosity. The hand
kerchief crossed the Alps and was re-
ceived with great favor ut the court of
France. Handkerchiefs were then
made Of cambrlc or lawn and bordered
with Venetian or Alencon lace. Under
Henry III. Of France the sachet was
introduced. The handkerchief was
taken into Germany little later and
was known as the "faZelletin," after
its italian name. Only persons of
quality used 1t, and an edict in 1895
was published at Dresden interdicting
the use of the handkerchief among the
trading classes.-London Globe.

Columns Of st. Mark.

Two memorable granite columns,
known as the columns of St. Mark,
brought from the Holy Land in 112O
and standing in front of the quay and
landing steps Of the Plazzeta, have
been associated with the fortunes OF
Venice for many years. At first they
lay prostrate for long time, while
no one would undertake to raise them.
But n reward offered by the doge at
length induced one Nicolo Barratiero
(Nick the Blackleg) to offer his serv-
Ices. He succeeded and claimed as
his reward the privilege of carrying
on between the columns games Of
chance, elsewhere prohibited by law.
To neutralize this ms much as possible
II was enacted that all public execu-
tions should take place on the same
spot. One column is surmounted by
the Lion of st. Mark. The other car
ries a fine figure Of st. Theodore, the
patron saint of the city, who stands
upon n crocodile and with sword and
bucklcr gives token that the motto Of
Venice is Defense, Not Defiance"

A Remarkable Escape.

During the reign of terror in Paris
one of the most remarkable escapes
was that of NJ. de Chateaubrun. He
was sent TO execution with twenty
other prisoners, but after the fifteenth
head had fallen the gullotine got out
Of order and a workman was sent for
to repair 1t. The six remaining VIC
tins were left standing in front of the
machines with their hands tied behind
them. A French crowd is very Gu
rious, and the people kept pressing
forward to see the man arranging the
guillotine. By degrees NJ. de Chateau
brun, who was to the rear of his COM
panions, found himself In the front
line Of the spectators, then in the sec
ond and finally well behind those who
had come to see his head cut off. Be-
fore the men could get the guillotine
In working order night began to fall,
and NJ. de Chateaubrun slipped away.
When in the Champs Elysees he told
man that wag had tied his hands
and robbed him of his hat, and this
simple individual set him free. A few
days later NJ. de Chateaubrun escaped
from France.

A Stitch Of Pain,

A stitch is a sharp, spasmodic pain
In the muscles of the side like the
piercing Of needle and is very apt to
be produced II exercise Is taken i'm
mediately after hearty meal. This
arises because the nervous energy nee
essary for the proper working Of the
muscles in exercise Is engaged in an
other direction-namely, in assisting
the digestion Of the food. Anything
that interferes with the proper supply
of nervous energy required for exer-
else, whether 1t be debility or the proc
ess Of digestion or exhaustion arising
from overexertion, is apt to cause this
spasmodic pain.

When he left the house Saturday

"What'n blue blazes is the matter

ing able to open 1t.

Moro Story Of the Flood.

The legend Of the food as told by
the Moros is as follows:
"When the forty days and nights Of
rain came No and his family got into
a box. One pair Of each sort Of bird
and beast also came In. Men who
were busy with their ordinary occupa-
tions aud did not enter the box were
overtaken by the flood Those who
ran to the mountains became mon
keys; those who ran to the water, fish.
The Chinaman changed to a hOrnbill.
A woman who was eating the fruit Of
a seaweed and would not stop was
changed into a fish called dugong,
and her limbs can still be seen under
its skim"
