who refused to resign as honorary presi-
dent of the congress, wanted to Join
the Congress that he might expound his
temperance views to the brewers, who
didn't care to hear them at all.
while you undoubtedly would, among
other things, receive a lesson in cour-
tesy and good breeding II you were to
attend the meetings of the congress, the
terms of your application themselves
disqualify you," read Andrae's letter to
Farwell.
The prohibition leader expressed great
regret that he would not be permitted
TO make the speech he had written.

Private coIeridas.

In his young days the poet ColeridGs
had a little love affair which ended In
disaster, for the lady refused him. In
despair he enlisted In a cavalry reg1-
ment which he hoped would be or
dered on foreign service. For family
reasons he dropped his correct name,
but from a feeling of sentiment re-
tanned the initials, so Samuel Taylor
Coleridge became Private Silas Tomp-
kins Camberbatch. The regiment did
not leave the country, and 1t was not
long before his soul wearied OF bar
rack life and its utter absence Of ro-
nance. His military life ended In a
curious fashion. One day while Cole
ridge was doing weary sentry go
two officers strolled past. One Of them
made use of Greek quotation which
the other corrected. The first insisted
on his correctness, while the other
was just as positive he was wrong.
While they disputed the sentry sud
denly presented arms and respectfully
informed them that they were both in
error. he gave the exact quotation,
name of the author and other circum-
stances. This incident led to an In
quiry, and the poet was restored to
the bosom Of his family.-London

Ina JAPANESE Temple.

"Asakuse temple is dedicated to the
goddess Kwannon, a tiny image Of
gold, about two and one-half inches
high writes a traveller In Japan. "At
the entrance TO the temple grounds on
either side Of the immense gate stand
two large and fearful looking figures,
guarding the sacred precincts. Hang
ing outside the wire grating are n
number of sandals for their use IL they
wish to take a walk, and rice Is
sprinkled about. Each worshiper, be-
fore entering the temple, calls at a
small building, and after contributing
n small amount, washes his hands and
rinses his mouth. In front Of the main
shrine is large aperture in the floor,
covered with latticework, into which
the worshiper casts his gift. After
cIapping his hands to awaken or at
tract the attention Of the god, he
kneels, but his prayer is only brief.
While there is one chief shrine there
are many others under the same roof.
One shrine especially attracted my at
tention; 1t was made of wood, and
quite disfgured and worn through the
constant rubbing of hands on the spot
corresponding to the afflicted portions
OF the sufferers bodies. Chicago

Tower Of Hercules.

Travellers may still see on the coast
of the English channel at Dover the
ruins of Roman lighthouse that was
built at the time of the Roman con-
quest of Britain. Another ancient
lighthouse, built less than a century
after the tower at Dover, is still serv-
ing its original purpose. 1t was partly
rebuilt and some alterations were
made in it, but In the main it is the
same old structure that guided the
Roman galleys as they skirted the
coasts Of the bay Of Biscay, making
their way to the Roman port Of Bril-
gnntium. This Is the modern harbor
Of La Coruna, and the lighthouse is the
most ancient thing about 1t. The
Romans called it the tower Of Her
cules. and the moderns have perpetu-
ated the name. The exact date of its
erection is not known, but inscrip.
tons and other evidence show that 1t
was built in the time Of Trajan, be.

Young men with meager salaries

Of their opulent elders. Said one

two months trip on the road:

On nearly all street corners even in
The largest metropolis Of Europe may
be found relics of the middle ages and
Of the earliest times. Take, for In
stance, the wooden image of q shoe,
which every cobbler hangs out above
his door. 1t goes back for its origin
to the Rome of the pre- Christian era.
In the ruins Of the lava buried cities
Of Herculaneum and Pompen many
shop signs of stone and terra Gotta
have been discovered, the forerunners
Of those that for centuries adorned
the highways not only Of Europe, but
Of the new world. Among them was
the emblem Of the shoemaker's trade,
a Cupid carrying dainty pair Of wo-
mems shoes. But the Romans did not
stop there. They used the image Of a
goat to indicate the dairies, that of a
mule driving a mill to point out the
bakers shops and a bush of evergreen
to direct the thirsty traveller to tav-
ern. This particular sign gave rise to
the English proverb, Good wine needs
no bush'

Jumping Cocoons.

Many visitors to the southwestern
states and Mexico have amused them
selves by watching the queer motions
of jumping beans" the seed vessels
Of plant, each Of which contain the
pupa of an insect whose spasmodic
movements cause the bean to hop and
roll about
More remarkable are the Jumping
cocoons" found In South Africa. The
cocoon is formed by the mother in
sect and Is very hard. The pupa when
ready TO emerge must cut its way out.
The front Of its head has a sharp,
chlsel-like edge. and by driving this
against the inside of the shell 1t grad
ually makes hole. The violent mo-
tons Of the pupa within cause the CO.
coon to leap so that one has been seen
to spring out Of a small glass tumbler.

LAWYERS on a Strike,

Over 800 years ago one Of the most
unusual strikes ever recorded took
place In Paris, when all the lawyers
walked out, 80 to speak. A law or
ordonnance was issued and promul-
gated by the French king Henry III.
ordering all lawyers to sign their
pleadings and to state the amount
they were charging their clients fol-
their services. This was done so that
the lawyers could be properly and
sufficiently taxed on their income
The lawyers objected, and the strike
causing an entire stay of judicial pro
ceedings, followed. Peace was restor'

dominance, though it was not repealed
