On one occasion De Pachmann. the
famous pianist. with his nervous and
irritable temperament. was summoned
to appear before Queen Alexandra at
Buckingham palace. He Obstinately
refused to go. His friends labored with
him for hours and at last persuaded
him not to commit an impertinence
which would never be forgiven by the
English people
Finally he was dispatched in cab.
The night wore on to morning. and
the frantic wife Of the pianist and his
friends could learn nothing of what
had become of him. At last a forlorn
looking cab drove up to the house.
and De Pachmann dismounted. On
leaving the palace he had forgotten
where he lived and could only tell the
cabman that it was in square with
a church in it. So all night long he

The Salt Sea Leoena.

There is a legend in the Morse scalds
which explains why the sea is salt
The ''bountifuI Frodi." whose mythical
reign was a golden age indeed. pos
sessed a quern. or hand mill, which
ground out gold and peace. but which
would grind out stores of anything de-
sired by it's owner. Two giant maid
ems, ruled over by Frodi. were the
grinders In an evil day a sea rover
came upon the scene. slew Frodi and
carried off the quern and the two
giant maidens who worked It When
the sea rover's vessel was right out at
sea he ordered the maidens to grind
salt At midnight they asked IL they
had not ground enough. The sea row.
er, angry at being awakened from his
sleep, commanded them to grind until
morning. Now, the giant maidens nat
urally enough worked very quickly. so
as they went on grinding the load of
salt grew so heavy that it sank the
ship, and now the sea will continue
salt forever.

Magnificent voraeity.

One Of the most noteworthy importa-
lions In the slaughter Of the gypsy
moth has been an active green beetle.
a tiger in the moth world Here is a
terrible creature indeed-a creature of
intrepid ferocity and magnificent vO-
racity. Beside him the hog is a beast
of most delicate appetite. The green
beetle would devour ten times bis
weight in gypsy moth caterpillars in
single day and be ready to duplicate
this performance on the morrow. His
nominal two seasons Of active life are
a wild orgy Of Staying and feasting.
His span OF mortality. includes a mere
fortnight Of larval life and two brief
summers Of adult existence, represent
ing less than Eve months Of activity
altogether. but during this time be will
normally devour nearly $50 gypsy moth
caterpillars or pupae as big as himself.
A single pair have been observed to eat
1900 caterpillars within eight weeks
gluttony almost beyond belief. - Cen

THIRSTY Berlin.

A census taken in Berlin at the dull
est time of the evening. between naIr
past and half past y, showed that
during these three hours ninety eight
drinking places were visited by 23,436
persons. 1t must not be supposed that
there are only ninety eight drinking
places in Berlin. On the contrary, a
single street. the Blumenstrasse, which
contains only eighty-four houses, has
forty saloons and an inn. and there is
actually a street in East Berlin. the
Madaistrasse, which. with only fifteen
houses. has seventeen saloons and
three hotels. There Is very little
drunkenness to be seen in the streets
Of Berlin, and one must stay mp late
to see that, but that is not because
the thing is not abundant, but because
the police will not tolerate any kind OF
disorder in public.-LOndon Taller.

Making Sure.

Lord suf1eld went with the then
Prince of Wales to India in 1875. At
one place the governor felt nervous be-
cause among his people there were a
number OF political and religious IA
natics who might be expected to make
trouble when the prince passed
through. He was strongly tempted to
lock them all up. but this would have
been a somewhat high handed action,
and the governor besitated to en-
force it.
He mentioned his difficulty to one OF
his daughters.
"But why not give a garden party,

them all and keep them entertained
until the prince has passed through"

One Wav to Decrease Jaos.

In Copenhagen the police have de-
creased the number of drunkards by
a novel plan of "tit-for-tat" If a man
is found drunk in the streets he is
escorted home in cab by a police Of
hcer, and the cab fare is charged to
the publican who served the man with
liquor. Needless TO say, publicans take
very good care that none shall drink
too much on their premises, in case
they should be called upon to pay the

served in the city hall and was given in

noon. The principal address was de-
Iivered by D. Ward King, the Missouri
road drag man, A fine audience gath

hearing. Twenty-Five of our public
spirited citizens pledged themselves to
build drags and thoroughly try them
on their roads. The slogan is: Drag
the road from your own front gate TO

town" The discussion at the close or
the address became very earnest. AT
times three or four men were on their
feet all trying to talk to Mr. King at
once.
A special invitation was mailed to
the county commissioners, township
supervisors and road supervisors, most
Of whom were in the audience. The
meeting promises to give great impe-
tus to the agitation for better roads
throughout the county and seems like
