Napoleon as a Scientist.

Napoleon Bonaparte was an active
member of the French Academy Of
Sciences; was elected a member in
1897. His appreciation of the impor-
tance of scientific research is illus
trated by the number of eminent
scientists he took with him on his ex-
pedition to Egypt, where he organized
the Institute of Egypt in Cairo and
proposed to establish an observatory.
His illustrated report of his investi-
cations on the antiquities of Egypt
was the first step in yyptian arch
eology, leading to the brilliant labors
of Champolion, Mariette and Mospero
and the dominance of the French
school in Egypt, even under British
control.

Revival of Domlnoes.

No game is too old to be revived,
and it is recognized fact that most
new" games are really very old
games in newer forms. Just now one
hears that in the various country
houses there is a great craze for
dominoes-a mild pastime enough
after bridge and poker. One can
spend money over dominoes, however,
as over most things, and quite large
sums are paid for boxes of dominoes
made of mother-of-pearl or thick ivory
and ebony. Penny points are usually
played, and fives is the form of game
most often followed.

London,s Youthful Boobies.

Has anybody noticed the number OF
youthful policemen about London re-
Gently? asks the Chronicle. OF course,
it is the result of the grant of one day
week rest to the force and the con-
seluent enlistment of new recruits.
One thing is particularly striking-the
extraordinary resemblance of these
young, slender, clean-shaven London
boobies to the pictures of the Roman
soldier holding his post at Pompeii
amidst the shower of ashes and burn
ing lava. The resemblance is even
more vivid in the case of the city than
of the metropolitan police on account
of the Roman character Of the city's
helmet

Humor From the HOSPITAL.

Perhaps the best story in Sir Ed
ward Cooks Life of Florence Night
ingale" is that of wounded Crimean
sergeant who picked up a wounded
comrade and stumbled back to camp.
The rescued man turned out to be
general, and waited on his rescuer in
the hospital. The latter, wrote Miss
Nightingale, exclaimed: "Oh, general,
it's you, is it, brought in? I'm SO
glad | didn't know it was your honor,
but If I'd known it was you, I'd have
saved you all the same"

FRIEND WORTH THE KEEPING
European Merchant Showed His APP
probation of Newspaper in Sub
stantial Manner.

Nothing pleases newspaper more
than letters of appreciation from its
readers. The most hardened old edi-
tor will flush up and tears of JOY will
fill his cynical eyes when Veteran
Subscriber" or Constant Reader"
writes in to say that yesterdays
smashing attack was the best ever.
Here in America letters of apprecia-
tion are all that any editor can hope
for. Abroad. however, it is different.
French editors are frequently reward
ed for good articles by presents of
roses, gold fountain pens, baskets of
fruit, and so forth.
But nowhere in the world does there
exist such Maecenas of the press as
good old Mr. Bimbo, the leading pork
dealer of central Europe.
Mr. Bimbo lives in Budapest, and a
year ago the Budapest Egyetertes pub
lished an interview with him, which
stated so accurately all his political
views that he sent forthwith to the
editorial room whole hand cart of
hams, sausages, blood puddings and
other choice pork products.
Since then, incredible as it seems,
Mr.. Bimbo has kept its editors fully
supplied with pork meat.
But man cannot live by meat alone,
and month or so ago the Egyetertes
went into liquidation. AS the editors
in mournful conference composed an
editorial farewell for their final issue
Mr.. Bimbo was announced. He had
heard the sad news, and now, taking
in the situation, he took out his check
book, and with one stroke of the pen
set the Egyetertes on its feet again.

What Hurt the Midower,

In the little village of Pershore, Eng
land. woman committed suicide by
hanging herself to an apple tree. At
the funeral neighbor, noticing the
sad appearance Of the husband, con-
soled him by saying that he had met
with a terrible loss.
YES said the husband, heaving a
sigh. She must have kicked like
thunder to shake off six bushels OF
green apples that would have been
worth crown a bushel when they
got ripe"

Astronor,icaI

That the space between earth and
the stars is occupied with some medi.
um that resists the rays of light is the
belief, among others, of the astrono-
mers Birkeland and See, who say that
the whole sky Is suffused with nebu.
lous material. Doctor Birkeland thinks
the matter scattered through the ins
terstellar spaces exceeds in mass the
aggregate of the suns and planets.

SEASON WAS GOOD
FOR FLORIDA SHIPPERS
(FIorida Grower)

The Florida shipping season is
about over. 1t has on the whole been
particularly good year for the grow
ers of fruits and vegetables. Florida
farmers took in more cash this year
than ever before. OF course there
were growers who did not realize
much of anything for their crops
There were those who shipped fruit
at a time when it was rotting on the
trees and markets were very bad.
Some of them had their whole crop
in this kind of a market, with disas-
trous results. There were yet other
growers who allowed spectators to
take their crop with very little, if
any, money down, and these specu-
lators also struck this bad period and
in consequence had nothing to pay
the growers with However, as a
whole, the growers of citrus fruits
did very well; and more money came
into Florida this year from the sale
of fruits than for any other year in
the history of the state, probably
/ close to 6,000,000, as nearly s.
500,00 boxes were shipped and the
average return by the Florida Citrus
Exchange to its growers was close to
50 per box f. o. b. Florida. Besides
this amount the railroads got be-
tween $5.00O,000 and s6,0OO,000,
making the total value of the citrus
crop run considerably over $4,000
006. OF the $16,00O,000 coming
back to Florida, approximately Sc
100000 was spent for picking, pack
ing and marketing, leaving the grow
ers $4,000, 900 for their product on
the trees. or an average of $1,000
each for every citrus fruit grower in
the state.
