NOT ORIGINAL "MARK TWAIN
Samuel Clemens Was Second Writer
tc Make Use of WorId-Famous
Nom de Plume.

No lesser authority than Albert Bige-
low Paine in recent publication,
comes forward with the advice that
there were two Mark TwainS" ; that
Capt. Isaiah Sellers, a river steam
boat captain, contributing paragraphs
to the New Orleans newspapers, u.s.
ually signed himself "Mark-Twain."
According to Mr.. Paine, the arti-
cles of Capt. Sellers often began: MY
opinion for the citizens of New Or
leans" ETC., and would prophesy river
conditions and recite incidents and
comparisons dating as far back as
1911. To the younger pilots on the
Mississippi, among them Samuel Gle
mems, then % years old, the articles
of Capt Sellers afforded much amuse-
ment. In an attempt to further this
amusement, Samuel Clemens wrote a
prepOsterOus story of cruise he was
supposed to have made in the year
1763, the ships crew being Choctaws
and the captain Chinaman. The
story was satirical of the writing of
Capt. Sellers, and was thought to have
much literary value. Upon the insist
ence of one of his friends Clemens
permitted the article to be published
in the True Delta in May, 1859. Capt.
Sellers never wrote again for the
newspapers literary pride had
been wounded.
The nom de plume, MARK Twain"
lay idle for nearly four years. 1t
appeared again, revived by Samuel
Clemens, signed to a political letter
In the Virginia City (Nev.) Enter
prise on February 2, 1868. Shortly
after that time it was always signed
to the works of Samuel Clemens.
Clemens is said to have revived the
name because of his deep regret for
having so thoughtlessly wounded the
feelings of Capt. Sellers.

Not a Jim Dandy.

Dealers and manufacturers seeking
permits to handle alcohol are re-
Juired to answer innumerable QueS-
tons on blanks supplied by the of
fee of Charles J. OrbisOn, federal
prohibition director for Indiana. Few
fill out the blanks correctly the first
time. Many become worried before
they are through.
A permit seeker from the northern
part of the state sent in his applica-
ton. Then he had to change a serial
number and then again a decimal
fraction and then something else un-
til at last he became dissatisfied with
the whole arrangement. He wrote a
letter to the prohibition director, and
this is what he said:
"Say, do you know what Jim Dan
dy is? Well, Jim Dandy is a fellow
who can keep up with all this = red
tape and monkey business connected
with alcohol. And I'm not q Jim
Dandy."-Indianap News.

Ex-Convicts Hold Reunion,

There is one news story in New
York that the newspapers kindly
suppress each year. AT least they dc
not mention any names. In one of
the big hotels there is an annual
dinner in private banquet hall. Well
dressed men in evening clothes to the
number of forty attend. There is
nothing about them to indicate that
they are anything but what they are
successful business men. They dis
cuss over their meal the topics of the
day and all know each other by first
names. But when cigars are lighted.
walters and bus boys are driven out
and the doors are locked. Then
they discuss the past. All are ex-
convicts who have served terms in
Sing Sing. Two or three former ward
ems are usually the guests of honor.
They have proved that an ex-convict
can make good.

Whale Hide for Tire.

The leading novelty at the recent
automobile show at Seattle, Wash,
was a tire made from the hide of a
Pacific coast whale. Except for it's
pliable nature and a light red color
none would have suspected it being
other than the rubber product.
At the tannery where it was turned
out it was said that such tires can be
manufactured at one-fOurth the cost
of those of rubber. The hides of
shark, wolf fish and whales can be
used. AS to the supply of these fishes
it was assured auto owners that it is
ineXhauStible.
Another assurance was given to the
doubling ones in that a single whale
skin will produce over 500 standard
tires.

Tryinq to Save the Elk.

The elk are in danger of eXtermina-
ton, 10000 head supposed TO be in the
Yellowstone having disappeared. This
seems to be caused by cattle men graz
ing their herds on areas formerly oc-
cupied by the elk, which perish in
great numbers when they find their
old pastures denuded. Ranchmen in
many cases have fed them hay out of
pity and the federal authorities have
bought and stored hay in the hope of
preserving the breed. Cattle men are
not much interested by these splendid
examples of animal life, so that the
government should do something on
a large scale to preserve them.-Scien-
tific American.

Finuerprints Without Camera.

Through a discovery made by a
police sergeant in Washington, D. c.,
it is possible to take permanent fin
gerprints from transparent object
such as a sheet of glass-without the
use of a camera. On the fingerprint
on the glass he sprinllleS a covering
of aluminium powder, and a contact
print can then be made direct on to
a piece of sensitized film or photo
graphic paper.

City and Country People.

The best and most hopeful feature
In any people is undoubtedly the in
stinct that leads them to the country
to take root there, and not that which
senus them f1Ocking to the town and
it's distractions. The lighter the snow
the more it drifts; and the more
frivolous the people, the more they
are blown, by one wind or another
into towns and cities.-JOhn Bur-

Worlds Seed Garden.

According to writer in the Mentor
magazine, more seed is being grown
In this country than in Europe A

more than three thousand acres to
seed plants. One sweet pea bed is
300 acres broad. There is a seed mar

Corned Beef.

The "corned" in ''cOrned beef
comes from the verb corn" which
Webster defines as follows: ITO pre-
serve and season with salt in grains
to sprinkle with salt; to cure by salt
ing; now. specifically, to salt lightly
in brine or otherwise. as to corn beef. >

Would Spare Daddy's FEELINGS.

Marion is fond of her daddy and
never wishes to hurt his feelings. One
day she ate too much candy and made
herself so sick she had to go to bed.
Every little while her daddy would go
in to see how she was, and finally,
when he went in, before he had time
to ask her, she said: Don't ask me,
daddy, for will have to tell you ]
feel worse"
