CoRsIcAN CRUELTY.
u loomed Up Large In NapoIeon's
Treatment of Children,

Napoleon bad singular rage for
Pulling children's ears. sometimes so
hard as to make the poor children cry.
Caroline was very vexed when she
saw her little Achille the victim of his
uncle's caresses. and more than once
her sons tears made her weep too.
One day the First Consul. pulling the
ears OF the little fellow, hurt him. and
he cried out To teach him not to cry
his uncle pulled his ear again, harder.
Achille. having freed himself. came
back to him in fury and. raising his
little fist, shouted
"You are villain. wicked, wicked
villainl
To prove the contrary Napoleon
should have embraced his nephew and
made him forget the pain he had gra-
tuitously inflicted by some show of af-
fection. But tenderness was not in
his character. COrsicans scarcely know
what 1t means, and. though Napoleon
used to say. II am less OF Corsican
than one thinks" he was really more
so than any one or he himself thought
Instead of quieting his nephew he be-
came angry and gave him violent
slap on the face. The child ran weep

fort" says LucleD. who relates this
episode, ''she made to control her feel

Caroline had always been an affected
creature and acted like all parents who

SKIN or A BADGER.
30 Loose tho Animal Can Almost Turn
Somersaults In X.

The pelt of an adult badger Is ex-
tremely thick and difficult for biting
adversary to penetrate. writes trap
the skin cover the body that the ami
NAL Is able to turn almost around In
Its hide.
Should dog acquire hold on the
throat the badger turns himself 80 that
the dogs grip is on the back of the
badgers neck without having loosened
his frst hold Then the badger Sc
cures viseike grip upon some vul-
nerable portion of his enemy, and
while his long tusks penetrate to the
limit he digs and scratches with his
front feet that are furnished with
claws almost as formidable and deadly
as might be expected from an anteater
Of the dark continent.
He who has removed the pelt of a
badger and is at all observing does not
wonder at this animal being sharp bit
ten and that he is able to hang with
bulldog tenacity when the formation
and adjustment of its Jaws are noted.
Neither is II 80 much of mystery how
he manages to bore through the soil
so rapidly that half dozen men with
shovels cannot overtake him. for he is
a mass OF cords aud muscles, particu.
larly In the neck. chest and shoulders,
very similar in physical construction to
the ground mole.
The badger toes inward sharply when
travelling and always on the walk,
twisting about here and there very
much like the movement OF skunk,
while If II be In winter he makes n
business of hunting buried dormant
woodchucks.
He is fur bearer of rather coarse
quality. and there is great range of
value In the pelts taken. depending
upon the length of the coat. A badger
is chiefly valuable when 1t has a long
coat, so that the guard hairs can be
plucked and used to make shaving
brushes.

MODERN CHEMISTRY.
Prediction of Scientist and Ito Re.
markable Verification.

markable Veritcation.
When mathematical astronomer In
Paris gave Berlin observatory a
search warrant for new planet and,
turning his telescope as directed, the
Berlin observer found the previously
unknown planet all the world won
dered. Equally remarkable have been
prediction and its verifcation in the
history of modern chemistry. Grading
the known elements of nature accord
ing to the weight of their respective
atoms, it was observed that the ele-
ments. some seventy or more in num-
ber, formed scale marked by period
icity like the scale in music, This
periodic law in the hand of genius be-
came an instrument of research. It
was In 1871 that Mendeleef. the Rus
sian chemist. in forming the scale Of
elements, found 1t necessary to leave
three spaces vacant for undiscovered
elements to make his table true.
Neither did he hesitate to predict
the properties which these elements
should possess when discovered. It

all the habits of mind and body suf-
f1cient to discriminate them positively
from all other men. Not only was the
prediction literally fulfilled, but Men
deleef had the unexpected pleasure to
see the veridcation in his day. for
out Of the night of the unknown one
after another came the predicted ele-
ments into the clear sunlight of science
and were instantly recognized.-Louis-

A Trick of the Sun.

Upon mountain in Andalusia
quaint spectral forms are frequently
seen. Whenever there 10 heavy mist
and persons are ascending the noun
tain they appear in all their ghostly
splendor and sometimes no suddenly
as to strike dismay into the hearts Of
those who see them for the first time
OF course II is all a trick played by
the sun. When mist partially
shrouds the mountain the sun is nat
urally obscured. and then he revenges
himself by projecting the shadow Of
any person who is ascending the
mountain until It assumes the form Of
of a gigantic specter.

An Insect Gunner.

Many insects have some means Of
defense from their natural enemies.
none of which is more curious than
that OF small beetle. which. when
closely pursued. discharges a pun OF
poisonous vapor with distinct deton-
alton. Undoubtedly in many instances
this aids the dinilnutive gunner in his
escape, mainly. in all probability, by
startling his pursuer and causing him
to abandon the chase. From this
peculiar requirement, this little fellow
is known us the bombardier beetle.

Golf Grows Popular

Total Aggregate Cost Mounts Up Into

NEW YoRR, DAY "a striking proof
OF the popularity of golf is given in a
comparison Of the cost of various branches
of the sport Considering its compare
lively recent Introduction, the annual ex-
penditure on the royal and ancient game
Is really remarkable. as in this respect It
now ranks second only to baseball II is
estimated that there are about 100000 reg
ular and occasional golf players in the
United States. The average of club dues
fees etc, are about $50 year, and II only
one-fifth of these players are actual mem
bers of golf clubs that would mean cost
OF 35.OOO.O0O a year TO them. on golf balls
and clubs the expenditure is estimated a,
about 100000 annually. Nor does this
take into account such things as golf shoes
and al the other incidentsls OF the para
pheTnNlia. calculated 10 cost during twelve
months a sum OF 100000.
For the average city man who has TO
20 into the country to club in order TO
pay S is considered a very fair approx
nation of the days expense. In a year
SG,5OoOo0 would thus be spent by 10000
golfers playing only five days a season.
COnsidering that many clubs have in
vestments that run up into a quarter OF a
million or more and that several in this
district have club houses alone worth
from $4,000 to 10000, an average invest
ment Of $4,000 cannot be regarded as an
excessive calculation. This would repre-
sent a total investment of s. $4,000, TO say
nothiDg Of the money invested in the un-
allisd private and hotel courses. of which
there are more than 1000 In all These
