Widows Three Tests.

A smart widow at a country house
was telling the other day that there
were three courses through which
every woman should put man before
she married him. These were eating,
laughing and kissing. "A mans laugh
tells lot,' she said. IF il is hearty
and merry he is good tempered; if loud
and empty it means he lacks feeling.
Beware of a greedy man. 1t will be a
case OF feed the brute all the time"
And, according TO her, kissing was the
most important test of all

SPECIAL ROPE FOR CLIMBERS
Those Used in the Alps Are Selected
for Strength, Reliability and
Liohtness.

The rope used by Alpine climbers is
of special manufacture, combining as
far as possible the different qualities
of strength, fiexibility and lightness.
Three qualities are in general use.
being made from sisal, Italian and
Manila hemps respectively, and occa-
sionally, when cost is not a considera-
ton, of silk. The latter, though very
light and strong, is not SO durable as
the others That which finds most IA
vor among British mountaineeers is
known as Buckingham's Alpine rope.
II is made of the best Manila hemp.
In the year 1854 committee of the
Alpine club made tests upon number
of ropes suitable for mountaineering.
OF the two that were approved one
was made of Italian hemp and the
other of Manila. They both had a
breaking strain of two tons and sus
tanned the weight of 170-pound man
after falling from a height of ten feet.
Non-mountaineers have sometimes
considered this insufficient, but it is
highly problematical whether the hui
man anatomy could survive the sud-
den compression of a thin rope aris-
ing from any greater fall.-Try's Mag.

This Story Should Convince skeptIcs
a. to Size and Ferocity OF the
New Jersey Species.

A struggling young artist In New
York who, last summer, felt Ill and
respondent, decided that IL he were
to accomplish anything during the
coming winter. he must have a vaca-
ton In the country. Accordingly, he
repaired to a New Jersey resort I'm
the hope OF being able to obtain re-
duced rates.
Well" said the old chap, who ran
the place, Il can't see why / should
take You for less money than the
others; but l tell you what I'll do.
You paint me nice, fancy picture
of the hotel and grounds. and I'll give
you months board
The young artist set cheerfully
about the task. In a short while he
submitted for his hosts approval
highly idealized picture of the little
house and it's grounds To one OF
the outbuildings he had added a dove
cote, round which several birds, which
the discerning eye might have seen
were doves, were lowering.
The landlord didn't think much of
this effort. The picture as a whole"
said he, "ain't half bad, but / can't
stand for these mosquitoes. You must
paint them out, or the bargains OF.

False Teeth an italian Invention.

No doubt the statement of firm OF
manufacturers that they sell over H.
100000 false teeth a year, is well
founded, since everyone uses them
these days. 1t seems, however, to re-
call to memory the fact that the use
of artificial teeth is just a little over
a hundred years old.
The first successful maker was Gius-
sepangelo Fonzi, an Italian dentist,
who started practice in Paris in 1898,
and, thanks to his skillful treatment
of Lucien Bonaparte, soon made his
way. After years of experiment he
discovered the substance from which
artificial teeth are still made, and re-
ceived the gold medal of the French
Academy of Science. One of the earli-
est persons fitted with false teeth was
the empress of Russia. After Water
loo Fonzi migrated to London, and
then to Madrid, where Ferdinand VII.
of Spain, rewarded him with a yearly
pension of a thousand ducats for q
set of false teeth.

Music to Lure Fish,

Two Pennsylvania disciples of Izaak
Walton have just invented a must
cal minnow for bass fishing. The new
device is described as a wooden min
now, and instead Of the usual spinner
in front there is carved out the face
of pretty girl. In front of the face
is miniature electric light, the pow
er for which is furnished by a dry bat
terry carried in the pocket of the fish
ermen, to throw light on the bait,
which hangs on the under side.
The minnow is painted red, and
within it is a tiny musical box, the
playing of which is regulated by the
fisherman before he casts his line.
The inventors say they adopted the
idea because they have found while
fishing that bass are attracted by the
ringing of cow bell.-Evening STAN

Found Haven on Gaspariiia Isle.
On the island where the phosphate
port of Boca Grande is now located
Gasparilla found the haven he was
seeking. 1t blocked one of the en-.
frances of Charlotte Harbor in any
one of a dozen of whose smaller bays
and creek mouths there was plenty OF
chance for him to escape prying eyes.
This must have been about the year
1900. Gasparilla built a mansion on
the isle and here he lived like a
king with his bloodthirsty pirates as
the courtiers.
There was not wanting ladies in this
court
Gasparilla had a great eye for fem.
nine beauty and his course of action
when taking a ship was always the
same
Overheard with the men; save the
women!" was his invariable order.
But it was this practice that led TO
his ruin. His depredations were report
ed to the United States government
and a frigate sent to the gulf waters
to run him down.
After a long chase through the Ten
Thousand Islands, and up and down
the coast the pirate was cornered In
Lemon bay as he was trying to make
his way through Gasparilla sound INTO
Charlotte Harbor.
A bloody battle ensued. The pirate
was no coward and his crew fought,
as they we'll knew, with matters
around their necks. Few we're left,
tho fro N
come down. Gasparilla was one OF
the captives, so the story runs, and
suffered the speedy penalty of his
crimes. In short, he was hung at the
yard arm of his own boat.
One legend has it that the frigare
burned out the pirates nest, root and
branch, and destroyed the home. An
other story has it that it endured for
many years though avoided by the oc-
casional fishermen who landed on that
coast, who felt that it was haunted.
This story has it that the old place
was finally struck by lightning in one
of the tropical storms that sometimes
sweep the keys and destroyed.
Certain it is that it Is gone, though
old residents say remains. Of the place
were still to be seen when they came
into that country in the days of the
Seminoles.

Even now on Coral Creek, near
Lemon bay, in sight of where the Char
lotte Harbor and Northern railroad
takes to the water in the two mile
crossing of Gasparilla sound, treas

was buried in a long boat which was
sheathed with cement, so the story
goes to make it water tight, then sunk
in the little creek.
1t is this story of Gasparilla that

name keeps alive.
Isn't it a great foundation for a
Carnival? Could any better name be
designed?

CHARGES AGAINST
THE SOUTHERN RAILWAY.

President Fairfax Harrison, of the
Southern Railway, made wonder
fully clear defense of his company
in Washington yesterday before the
special committee investigating the
roal rate situation in the South. 1t
was a complete denial of the charges
presented by 8. L. Dulaney, indie
pendent coal operator OF Bristol,
Tenn, whom Mr.. Harrison declared
was suffering from a "delusion Of
persecution"
During the course Of his testimony
Mr.. Harrison said:
81 resent with every fibre of my
being the charges of bad faith and
chicanery brought against the organi-
cation of the Southern, and | think
] am supported therein by that great
mass of people who have done bust
mess with us in the South. feel a
further resentment at the charge that
the direction of the policy of the
Southern Railway has been in out
side hands, and that the management
has been for any other interest than
that of the South. The ambition and
policy of the Southern has been to
take part in the regeneration Of the
South, and in that policy its officers
and management all along has shaped
its course"
After watching the course of the
Southern Railway for the past 20
years we can state our complete
faith in the above statement mace
by Mr.. Harrison. During that perlot
of time the Southern has had three
i, executives who have We'd with one
another in their endeavors to bullt

Harrison, has even gone farther thar

TIME FOR THE
"PROPHETS.-'

Long before the days Of Charlie
imagine certain persons who read
prophecy have imagined every time a
threatening war cloud appears that
the end Of the world or "soncumma-
ton Of the age' was drawing near.
When Napoleon was meeting with
such success the Corsican was recog-
nizea' by some as the Anti-Christ and
ingenious deductions concerning the
import of his name were made. Dur
ing the civil war in America other
equally knowing people saw in that
conflict the rising of the king Of the
north against the king of the .cuth,
mentioned in the Book of Daniel
and supposed the end of terrestrial
affairs was imminent.
The Caesars, Charlcmaync and
Napoleon paid the debt of IA j..
.turc and normal conditions fol-
lowed, while the war between
the north and south was fol-
lowed by a long period of peace and
the expansion of the United States
far beyond the dreams of the foun.
dera of the republic. The sun rises
and sets as usual and the seasons

The age Of grace which set in over
