Wanted Uniformity.

Colonel G. is a fine commander, but not musician. He sent for the chief musician of his rcgimental band one day and delivered this scathing criticism:
 'I notice lack of uniformity about the band which must be regu- lated. Yesterday morning they were out on parade, and the largest man in the band was playing a little bit of an instrument-flute or some- thing of the kind-and you had the big drum played by small man. That sort of thing doesn't look well and must be attended to. 1 want the small men to play small instru- ments, and the big men the big in struments. And another thing, l want the trombone players to slide their instruments in and out in uni son. It annoys me to sec them all out of step with their hands. - Everybody's.

TRICKS OF ORATORS.
Use of the Actors Art to Make Thsir
 Words More Effective.

Woros More Enoceive.
 Great orators have not scrupled to use the arts of the actor to pro- duce their effects. Lord Brougham, while protesting against the rejec- ton of the reform bill by the house of lords, cried out, "I implore you upon my knees!" kneeling before them on the woolsack, upon which the lord chancellor sits when presid ing in the house of lords.
 Sheridan, having finished his fa- nous speech in the trial of Warren Hastings, sank back apparently fainting in the arms of his friends.
 Edmund Burke, at the end of speech upon the atrocities which might be expected from the French in case of an invasion, drew forth an enormous two edged dagger and exclaiming, ''This is the weapon which will be pointed at your throats and minew dashed it on the floor with tragic gesture.
 Shortly after Lord Cairns, speak ing against Burke, who was suspect ed of having amassed his wealth dis honestly, exclaimed, "And this is the weapon which is used with fatal effect against you and me!' drag ging out with Burke's gesture five pound note. As every one looked to see him dash it on the floor he quietly folded it and put it ill his pocket.
 One of the most noted criminal lawyers of this country, while plead ing the cause of his client, was in- variably so overcome by his inno- cence and wrongs that his voice would fail, his utterance would be- come choked, and he would sob so that he would be obliged to sit to recover himself.
 'I should think" said a judge to him one day, "that the jury would understand your little drama by this time."
 "Ah, your honor forgets," said the lawyer, his eyes twinkling, "that there is always new jury before whom I play"
 Bismarck held profound con- tempt not only for such tricks of oratory, but for oratory itself. "1t is but the gloss that hides the truth,'' he would say. "Your elo- auent fellow is like a woman who has a naturally fine figure and who screws it into stays and covers it with tasteless fnery." Washington Star.

 After pointing out the wrong of such an act, he said:

What ls Sound2

The natural question, "What is sound?" opens up a world of mys- tery and of delight to those that like that sort of thing. Anything that sets up vibrations in the air, where there is an ear to receive them, makes noise. An alarm clock in vacuum jar may whir ever so busily, but it makes no noise. There must be air or there is no sound, and there must be an ear to carry the vibrations to the brain or there is no noise.-Delineator.

ATEPRlBLE ACCIDENT

Eand simultaneously reached back his
hand to his hip pocket.
Hey, don't shoot 'em" yelled the
spectators in prompt apprehension.
rstYou can have 'em arrested, and can
then sue them"
The man still kept his hand in his
hip pocket, while look of impotent
rage flashed across his face, and he
booked at the vanishing car.

lawyer, bustling up. "PH be your

TIT FOR TAT
Among the peculiar marriage GUS

that which prevails in Brittany.
When the wedding ceremony is over
it is the practice for the lord and
master to give his bride a sound box
on the ear, and say as he gives it:
THAT is how it feels when you
make me vexed."
After this most UnlOVer-like pro-
ceeding he greets her with an ardent
kiss, and tenderly utters the words:
And thus it feels when you treat
me well"
A Breton once had the temerity to
link his fortunes with those of a Ger
man lass, and, nothing daunted, gave
her the usual salute on retiring frC-l
the altar. But he had mistaken

wiser, rubbed his cheek, and left tho
church with the settled belief tn
he had, without doubt, a better HI

In Alabama, Mississippi Ten

deterioration is noted, though it
is doubtful if the losses are any
greater if indeed as great as those
usually occurring at this period
when the plant approaches ma
turity, Shedding is reported, due
in most instances, to lack Of molS-
ture and in Louisiana consider
ably increased boil weevil dam

IN Texas and Oklahoma and
over about one half of Arkansas
heavy losses occurred and the
plant is fast running into a state
of decline that cannot be rec0v-
cred with favorable weather and
abundant rainfall. Permanent
and irreparable loss has however
just begun except in unfaVored
localities and if rain comes during
next week in general and heavy
fall great good will be done,
Greatest loss has occurred in
