How He Learned a Lesson.

In a murder case in Mississippi the
principal witness for the state was an
old negro man. an ex-slave. The at
torney for the defense attempted by a
severe and sarcastic cross examination
to break down his testimony or at
least make him angry. but failed ut
terly to do so. After the old fellow
left the witness stand the district at
torney said to him:
Uncle Bill, want to compliment
you in that you did not get angry to-
day, but answered the attorney so
pleasantly
"Marse Jimmie" said the old fell

UnexpIored Lands,

Europe is the only continent which
has been completely explored. A large
area in North America has never been
visited by civilized people. 1t is in the
northwestern part of Alaska, within a
short distance of the coast. There are,
besides. similar areas in the extreme
northern section of the North Ameri-
can continent. in the vicinity of Hud-
son bay, and again in Labrador.
The interior of Brazil has several large
unexplored areas. and there are SIM
liar areas to the southwark Africa, as
might be expected, contains more un-
explored territory than any other con-
tinent. The largest lies in the Sahara.
while the central part of the dark con-
tinent to the southwark offers many
opportunities for exploration.
Despite the antiquity of civilization
in Asia, much remains to be done by
the geographer. There are several un-
explored areas in Arabia. as well as in
China. and especially in northern ST.
IBERIA. Australia contains several dark
spaces in the northern section. Through
out the south seas lie many islands.
some of considerable area, which have
not yet been placed upon the map.

Antiauitx Of Wheat.

There is evidence that the Chinese
cultivated wheat nearly 5000 years
ago. regarding it as a direct gift from
heaven. The Egyptians attributed it
to their god Isis and the Greeks to
Ceres. Concerning the latter it was
believed that when she had taught her
favorite. Triptolemus. how to till the
soil and make bread she gave him her
chariot. and in that he traversed the
world. distributing corn to all nations.
Wheat growing in Egypt can by the
evidence Of a grain found imbedded
in the brick of pyramid be traced
back to 1859 B. c. Varieties Of wheat
are legion. A French firm in it's trial
seed grounds had over GOO varieties
growing. and since then crossing" has
increased the number.

Neither Americas Vespucius nor Co

At present in this vicinity the best

when It will be partitioned of into so

Private Car. Of Bahia.

In the town of Bahia, on the east
coast Of Brazil. the private car ques-
ton has been settled to the satisfac-
ton of every white resident by pro-
viding a private street car for each Of

fitted with wide seat which will hold
two persons. The tracks of this pri-

Of the town. with switches to the stores

A practical joke which was played In
q small town created lots of fun and
some indignation. A joker notified many
Of the housewives that on a certain
morning the telephone company was
going to blow the dust out OF the

told to tie cloths over the phone to pre-
vent the dust running wall paper. fur
niture and pictures. Some OF the
pl mes were kept closely tied for an
hour or two. and others were under
the rags for half day. or at least I'M

informant said the joker had to leave

righteous indignation OF women VINO

Webster and Turkeys.

Senator Daniel Webster at his farms
in New Hampshire and at Marshfield.
Mass. seems to have been one Of the
earliest advocates of improving the
turkey. He did a great deal in that
way himself and sent many fine COB
blers and hens from Marshfield to
friends at home and In Europe who
were engaged in improving breeds OF
poultry. A downtown hotel In this
city made for years a special feature
of serving prime turkeys from Web
sters Marshfield farm. The "gOdlike
Daniel used to stay at that hotel.
and at times when in good humor he
would take the head of table and
carve one of his own raised turkeys, a
saddle Of mutton from his New Hamp-
shire place or haunch of a deer shot
by himself in Plymouth woods. New

San Francisco and Its Harbor.

San Francisco proper Is on the mar.
row neck Of land lying to the south Of
the Golden Gate opening. A similar
neck, though less narrow, rises abrupt
~ at the north. Behind these two
strips, running generally parallel to
the ocean, is the bay Of San Francisco.
the northern extremities Of which bear
the names San Pablo bay and Suisun
bay. This combined body Of water
has total area Of 400 square miles
and shore line of $50 miles. The
area exceeding thirty feet of depth at
low water is approximately 100 square
miles. The entrance to the bay is a
mile wide. and six miles outside this
entrance in half circle is a narrow
bar over which at low tide there is a
uniform depth of thirty feet and two
crossings of over thirty feet. Around
this bay is grouped the population of
the metropolitan San Francisco. en-
bracing Oakland, Alameda, Berkeley.
