The employees at the Augusta station
of the Maine Central Railroad had a
lively few minutes Friday afternoon
when they were called upon to fight a
grass fire. The blaze was on the hillside
at the west side of the tracks and just
above Bridge street crossing, and was
evidently due to spark from the loco
motive of a freight train which went
east at about l2.45. The fire ran up the
bank toward the old Bittues house on
Crosby street, but by active work on the
part of the railroad crew with brooms,
shovels and other utensils the blaze was
killed out without doing any particular
damage.

locatinu a Cabinet Leak.

Once years ago, when Daniel Web ster was secretary of state, there was an important foreign matter up for dis cussion before the cabinet and the ut most secrecy was of course maintain ed, but the whole thing was blazoned about in a few hours after the cabinet meeting So the president hastily sent for his cabinet to talk over this leak Each man had different idea of it.
 Finally MT. Webster arose, saying
 You, gentlemen, go on with your dis cussion, and I'll be back in a minute" In few minutes he returned and re- peated every word that had been spo ken in the room in his absence He explained that if by standing close to the door outside the cabinet room you held your ear to it you could not dis tinguish one intelligible word, but if. moving back from the door and a little to one side upon certain spot in the carpet, you kept an attentive ear every word could be plainly heard as though whispered. Some enterprising caves dropper had been experimenting with the door and had found that upon that exact spot there was some acoustic property of the door or room that con veyed the sound in perfect entirety.

Al esson For Nellie.

Mrs. Washington was strict disci- plinarian about certain matters and among other things always required the members of the household to fol low the example of her husband and dress for dinner, which was at 3 o'clock. On one occasion Nellie Gus tis and her cousin, Martha Dandridge appeared at the table in their morning gowns, but no comment was made upon it until a coach was seen ap- preaching and the visitors, some French officers of high rank and Charles Carroll, IT,, of Carrollton, one of Miss Custis' ardent suitors, were announced. Instantly the girls, in a futter of excitement, begged to be ex- cused in order to change their gowns. but Mrs. Washington shook her head. "No," she said. Remain as you are. A costume good enough for President Washington is good enough for any guest of his." Needless to say, Miss Nellie never overlooked her proper garb for dinner again.

There have been terrific gales in va rious places all over the world. In many instances it is. of course impos- sible to obtain any exact record of the velocity of the wind, but the highest ever recorded was reported from Cape Mendocino, Cal, in January, 1886. when the anemomcter registered IA miles an hour.
 At Cape Lookout, on the Atlantic coast. there is no telling what the rec ord force of the wind might have been had not the anemometer blown away after registering 139 miles an hour. This fearful hurricane hit the middle Atlantic coast on Aug. r, 1879.
 In June, 1881, wind of 112 miles was recorded on top of Pike's Peak, Colorado.-ChicagoH Herald.

shock to the community. MT. Hyde was a native of Belchertown and spent the greater part of his life | there. He came to Monson from Westboro to enter the employ of the late Charles H. Merrick and Rufus Fay as their coachman and gardener, and upon resigning that position he went to Belchertown where he has since resided. A veteran of the civil war in the wagon train of the 10th regiment, MT. Hyde was we'll known in Grand Army circles. For 15 years or more MT. Hyde ran the weekly express between Springfield and Bel chertown, and was as we'll known to the mechanics of Springfield as to the people of Belchertown.

Oriuin of the Lone Star,

If place name is often crystallized history, how much more nickname! Witness the fiowery synonym for Tex as, which orators mouth as the Lone Star State. To most minds this sym bolizes concretely the fact that the state was first an independent nation. Behind the fact is this story, vouched for by tradition more or less authentic. At the outset, after achieving independ- ence, Texas lacked pretty well every thing but men. The leaders knew state papers required a great seal to validate them, and in default of any thing better they improvised one from coat button which happened to bear single star. A document so sealed fell under the eye of an imaginative journalist. He straightway exploited 'The Lone Star Republic" ill print so fervid as to persuade Texas here was the device most opposite for her seal and her fiag.-New York Press.

A Museum of Crime,

Professor Hans Gross of the Uni versity of Gratz, Austria, has the credit of establishing the first museum o1 criminology and d criminalistic labo ratory, where the weapons, tools and other paraphernalia and materials used by criminals are assembled to assist iI the analysis of the workings of crimi nal minds and a study of methods and systems for dealing with this large and dangerous class of every community This museum was established in 1895, and since then other establishments of the same character have been organ ized.
 One of the most important of these is the Society of Criminology and So cial Defense in Paris, which has 8 membership of more than POO, in cluding many prominent representa- tives of the law, the police and medical profession, and it was organized tC concentrate and centralize the scattered efforts of individuals who were study ing this disquietmg social problem and to make the results of their work avail able for mutual information.

Eastinu and Health,

''The practice of fasting" states g medical man, 'is, when wisely follow ed, most beneficial. 1 am convinced that many people never feel the sen sation of natural hunger. All they have is a morbid craving for food which comes of habit rather than from any actual need felt by the stomach Natural hunger stimulates the palate and is felt in the mouth as well as in the internal organs. It makes the plainest food seem delicious. Some unfortunate people suffer, it is true from insufficient food, but not so many as those whose ills arise from overnutrition, their digestions being continually over strained. A habit of judicious fasting would do wonders fol them. The system would recover its lost tone, and-in the case of mental workers-the brain would work with an ease and li2htness that would sur prise them, for the brain is one of the chief sufferers from the practice of overeating."

The Shy Caterpillar.

The caterpillar, though a sociable creature, tries to keep out of every body's way. Some species hide on the under surface of leaves, others on the stems or blades of grass, which serve them as food; others, again, build little nests for concealment or lie snugly hidden between the curled edges of leaves, which they draw close together until the opposite edges meet. The cat erpillar is a sociable creature in his own family. He knows that there is safety in numbers, and you will find whole companies feeding side by side while keeping sharp lookout for their bird enemies, but when a cater pillar is by himself he scarcely dares to move for fear of attracting atten- tion. Even when he is obliged to change his skin he doesn't venture to leave his old coat lying around. The moment that he takes it off he eats it. The caterpillars that live in companies shed their skin boldly. Only the poor solitary fellows feel forced to swallow their old clothes.-London Mail.

MEASInED CY INCHES.
Tiny Things Eway CaI~rnisy or Success
 In Human Affairs.


 Everybody ki.ows what little thing an ill Il i.;, Lat few realize what big thing it is. few stop to contemplate what the difference ill an inch really means A tailor knows when an inch too mulh or too little has cost him maker knows when an inch too little of the goods on hand may cause her, after an arduous day of planning, to abandon chosen pattern for another. An engineer knows when his train, with it's carload of human freight, has gone one inch off the track over a precipice.
 Some men have minds one inch off the judgment track, and that causes all their schemes, gigantic and brilliant as they may be, to run amuck.
 Every calamity and every success in life is controlled by inches Men rarely go to their doom in an hour. It is inch by inch. All successes are won inch by inch
 As inch by inch the waters of life creep in to engulf us, so inch by inch the obstacles that impede our prog ress move aside.
 The man who attempts to leap over the inches to reach his goal gets there with broken leg.
 The word inch has a forbidding sound. It is because it holds us in it's clutches. We cannot ignore an inch or it immediately thwarts our inten- tions. Every simple thing is perform ed by man, as the saying goes, with in an inch of his life.''
 All diseases move inch by inch. Be- fore the scarlet fever breaks out in a child it has been developing inch by inch for nine days.
 The overstepping of an inch in the proprieties of life brands us. If a girl in a theater laughs an inch too loud the audience looks around and puts upon her the stamp of mot a lady"
 Department is measured by inches, and woe unto the man who fails to observe it's dictates. Even in the deep- est grief if one goes too far in his wailings the grief is questioned, if not ridiculed, and sympathy turned aside. An inch too far in the poets flight to imagination's realms and the world laughs at his best efforts.
 A single inch in any direction may throw away a mans chances for the worlds approval, and yet some men do not even consider the yards.
 It is the man who considers life within an inch of every detail present ed who succeeds.-New York Ameri- can.
