Tttthms His Enormous Incomes Chihuahua, Mexico.—Gen. Luis'Tor- mas, whose wealth Is conservatively tttlmated at 9200,000,000, celebrated the seventy-fifth anniversary of his blisth at his home In this city a few days ago. Gen. Terrazas is said to be the largest ihdivldual land owner in the world, his estates la western Mexl- •o approximating more than 16,000,000 •o* He owns several hundred thou- sand head of cattle, horses, sheep and goats. Some of the richest mines la Mexico belong to him. He and his son-in-law, Enrique Creel, the acting governor of the state, control the banking business of this portion of Mexico, and they are largely Interested also in some of the big finan- cial Institutions of Mexico City. Three- fourths of the residences an<f business houses in this city of 50,000 people are owned by. Gen. Terrazas, and he' re- ceives an enormous Income from rent- als. Most of the large industrlal'plants in this city and throughout the state were established and are owned by Gen. Terrazas and Gov. Creel. Despite his advanced age Gen. Ter- razas devotes several hours each day to directing the management of h>« many-interests. He recently mad* a horseback journey of more than *00 miles, inspecting his ranches an\' farms. It was not an infreqent oc- currence while on his trip to spend ten or twelve hours a day in the saddle. He employB many thousands of Mexi- cans and is highly regarded by them all. Gen. Terrazas has been constitution- al governor of the state of Chihuahua for many years. He retired from the active duties of the office a few years ago and had his son-in-law, Enrique C. Crele, appointed to the place as act- ing govehior. Gov. Creel has Ameri- can ideas and the state is making wonderful industrial progress under his direction. H1 CATS ABLE TO STOP TRAINS . Engineers Say Eyes of Feline Family | Are Like Signal Lamps at Night . Brookfield, Mo.—"Did you ever see a black cat's eyes when they were in the line of an electric light?" asked Ben Woodlief, traveling engineer for the Missouri division of the Burling- ton road. "If one steps on the rail- road track ahead of the engine and looks up the engineer sees two vivid lights ahead of him as large and Clearly defined as any signal service lights on the road. Sometimes they afe rede but most generally green or white. In the night time, of course, the engineer can't see the cat, and all he can do is to run in obedience to the cat-eye signals. If they are white he goes ahead, without slack- ing; if green he is cautious; if red he applies the air to make a stop. Sometimes a train Is brought to a dead halt before the engineer learns what's up against him. The running men tell me that the eyes of polecat's and rabbits are almost as perfect sig- nals as cat's eyes. No, there's been no talk of training-cats to act as sig- nalmen. Engineers would stand for It, because they hate cats on general principles, and If they had their way would be happy to lay the universal feline on the rails In front of their locomotives and crowd on all steam." SEEK RELICS OF IRELAND. Deputation Coming to United States 1 to Obtain Objects for Exhibition at Dublift in 1907. London.—A deputation is going to America to obtain objects of historical Interest for the international exhibi- tion to be held at Dublin in 1907. Prof. Thomas H. Teegan, principal of the Central Training college, Dublin, hat sailed for New York, and Father Pat- rick Lally of Galway add Col. McHack- ett of Dublin will follow. They will visit all the larger cities to obtain rel- ics in the possession of families of Irish descent and objects associated with the Napoleonic era held by Amer- icans. . While the exhibition is being strong- ly supported opposition to it has been aroused in some quarters. The Irish nationalists are especially opposed to it, John E. Redmond, leader of the Irish parliamentary party in the house of commons, explaining that what Ire- land desired at present was a national and not an international exhibition, as the Irish Industries are not sufficiently developed to be placed beside the man- ufacture of oher countries. Representations have been made to the state department at Washington not to support the exhibition by en- couraging people to exulbit Sells Snakes by the Foot. Mount Holly, Pa.—There appears t* be an abundance of snakes in Burling- ton county, and many residents of tb5 pine land districts find marketing the reptiles a source of considerable profit, In bis searches Hiram Kilpatrlck, ol Woodmansle, caught six pine snake; that averaged five feet in length. . These were .sold to George V. Bozarth, a dealer at Chatsworth, at the rate oi 15 cents a foot. Kilpatriclc took the snakes "to market" wrapped around his arm, as he had no other way te carry them. Hadn't the Capacity. The baby of a Maryland family had been through a siege of chickenpox. The infant's sister, a girl of ten years, being met by the minister's wire one day, that good woman naturally In- quired as to how the baby was get- ting on. •'He's some better, thank you," said the little girl, a shy and noncom- mittal child "Very much better, I trust," said the minister's wife. "Oh, he couldn't, be much better." responded the child, "because, you see. he's too little."—Harper's Weekly. A ' MOM FANCY TO PACT. Delightful ahd Novel Experience Rudely Dispelled. - Oh, thank you!" exclaimed the de- lighted wife, as her husband handed. her a large bunch of money and told her to go right down town and buy everything she liked. "Don't mention it," replied the hus- band. "I want you to have everything your heart desires in the way of dresses and bonnets this winter. I realize that I have not been as gen- erous as I should have been, and I hope I may be able to make up for it now. Here, take this double handful ot $20 gold pieecB, too. Look out, there! You're dropping them." But the double handful of gold 20a fell to the floor and went jingling here and there, and the husband laughed merrily until—, B-r-r-r-r-r-r! " " It was the alarm clock, and Bhe heard the voice'of her husband say- ing: "I'll be late to work again to-day. Say, lend me half a dollar, won't you? I have not enough money for carfare and lunch thlB morning." It is such distressing occurrences as this that make women wish they had married the squit-eyed, freckled boy who afterwards left home and berame a plutocrat HE CARRIEO THE 8AMPLES. A certain York county preacher for a long time had been dosing himself with a fiery concoction prescribed for some stomach trouble. One day while dining at a hotel he treated himself, as usual, to the regulation heroic dose. An inquisitive Boston drummer on his right hand inquired the reason for tak- ing the medicine. The preacher ex- plained hiB stomach diffioilty, and the benefits of his treatment, and the drummer, who was himself subject to indigestion, then related his own symptoms and politely requested the privilege of trying the remedy. The sympathetic preacher freely gave him a very generous dose, which speedily took effect. As soon as the traveling man recov- ered his breath and wiped his tears he thus accosted the minister: "I understand that you are a preacher?" "I am, sir." "Do you preach hell-fire?" "I do, sir." "Well, you are the first preacher that I ever saw who carried 'round samples of it."—Boston Herald. QUITE NATURAL* The Maiden—What do you do when you fall in love with a girl?

President Accepted It as a Sample, But Wanted More—How Federal Pris- oner Saved Life by Hla '•i-' Quick Wit •' Col. John S. Mosby, the famous guerilla leader, who attended a G. A. R. banquet in Boston a few nights ago, war delighted with the cordiality and good will of his hosts. "Whatever doubt there was in my mind about the war being over disappeared while I was in Boston," he says. "They sim- ply overwhelmed me with kindness. At the banquet I sat next to a man whom I had captured during the war. When I first sat> down I was rather proud that I had captured him. We had not been together a half hour be- fore I began to be sorry that I had captured him, and before the last speech was made I was genuinely sorry that he had not captured me." Col. Mosby, who is now an assistant attorney in the department of justice, has always been noted for bis sense of humor. It went a long way once to- wards saving a man's life. Col. Mosby and his men lay all night in ambush near a railroad waiting for a federal supply train. It finally came along, and was captured by the confederate, who, however, lost two or three of their men. This did not please Col. Mosby, and he showed it by some of the things he said to the federal pris- oners. "As for you," he said to one of these men, "I am going to hang you the moment I see the sun rise to- morrow morning." "I hope it will be a cloudy day," said the Yankee. The reply so pleased Col. .Mosby that he did not hang the man who made it or anybody else. In- stead, the prisoners were confined and later exchanged. It was about the same time in Col. Mosby's, career that he made his famous gift to President Lincoln. His headquarters were at a, Virginia farm- house, and one day the'guards brought to him a man who said he was a farmer and was on his way to Washington to sell some produce. "What reason have I to believe that?" demanded the con- fereate leader. "How do I know you are not a spy? How do I know that you will come back if I let you go?" The man's manner was so earnes that it impressed Col. Mosby, who finally told him that he might go. "Now that I have done something for you," he said, "I want you to do something for me. I want you to take a present from me to Abe Lincoln." Thereupon he borrowed a pair of scis- sors, clipped off a lock of his own lux- uriant hair and gravely handed it to the farmer. "You give that to Abe with my compliments," he said. The man took it and started for Washing- ton, promising earnestly to return on the second day following. He was as good as his word. He presented himself promptly on time and informed Col. Mosby that the pres- ent and the compliment had both been delivered. "And what did he say?" demanded the guerilla leader. ,"Oh," said the farmer, "he Just laughed and said that if he ever caught you he would not be content with one lock of your hair. He would take the whole of it. But I am sure he did not mean that literally." Worse .Than Losing Money.. A new form of freak election bet is detailed in the following story from a Biftem, Utah, correspondent of the' Chicago Chronicle: "Jules Verne Hall, the famous globe trotter, in order to pay an election bet must refrain from talking during the next, three months. Violation of the agreement means a loss of $2,500 posted as a forfeit. "Twice during the last four days has Hall been within an ace of losing. On Wednesday night while absent- mindedly gazing across the sage brush an enemy carelessly m qui red: 'Will you have r. drink?' "The wosd 'Yes' was on his lips, when Hall with a powerful effort re- strained himself and merely nodded assent. Thtsn an argument was start- ed as to the relative merits of the Eng- lish and Russian navies. Hall is a native of the British Isles and when everyone present agreed that Rojest- vensky could have defeated the Eng- lish home lleet, poor Hall spluttered until he grew red in the face. "The doots were locked and he could not escape, so to save his $$2,500 he gagged hftnself with a blanket. He Is suffering as few men have suffered. Because he dare not speak he has been living on ham and. beans, and he can- not protest when his companions lock him outside the "abin." A Turkish Millionaire. Mouammer Bey, son of the richest man in all Turkey, who will be heir to more millions than any other -person In the Ottoman empire, save the heir of the sultan, is in Boston on business, and before he leaves the business men will have something like a cool halt million of his money, while he will have tons of Boston's most improved shoe and cotton machinery. There is nothing about the sleek appearing man of 35 years, with hla rotund figure, to indicate that he is to be at some time in the future the rich- est man in his native land. He is just as democratic as any of this coun- try's wealthy men, and one wouldn't have to make a very big stretch of imagination to pick him out as an American. Muamtner Bey, unlike most of his fellow countrymen, is highly educated, and instead of wasting his father's vast wealth by riotous living, he has' mastered the many great Industries that his father controls, and is adding to the fortune. Those who have come In contact with him say that he is as keen as the proverbial Yankee man. The Knowing and the unSCnvWtog.

One of the pathetic stories of the storm that swept up the Atlantic coast a few days ago was that of the death of Capt. Matheson, of the schooner Nellie Floyd, wrecked off the North Carolina coast. It is of especial inter- est in this section, because Capt. Matheson and his vessel were well known hereabouts. For a number of years they had been frequent visitovs at Carolina and Georgia ports, where ship and master became familiar fig- ures. When the Floyd foundered and it, was certain that she must leave her bones in that marine graveyard off the North Carolina coast, a life raft of hatches was constructed, and the crew, including the captain, piled on It As they were about to push off, trusting to fortune to be picked up by a passing ship, Capt. Matheson looked back upon his beloved schooner, then in its death thrpes. His heart smote him. He felt like a deserter. The suffering but inanimate bulk called to him, and he'could not resist the call. "I am going back, boys," he said; "good-by and good luck to you." Then he scrambled back to the decks, by that time awash and fast settling. And In sight of the crew the ship and her captain went down to their fate. It is one of Kipling's favorite themes to illustrate the affection of a captain for his ship, and an engineer for his machinery. It is one of the conten- tions of purists that one cannot love anything incapable of returning affec- tion in kind, but it is no stretch of the truth or license of language to say that the sea is fairly peopled with skippers who love their craft with such' devotion that they prefer death with them to life without them. Such was the case with the British Admiral Tryon, who refused to be rescued when some few years ago off Africa the battleships Victoria and Camper- down came into collision with such flisastrous results to the former, Ad- miral Tryon's flagship. There are those who will assert-that a good ship and a good master come into_ closest understanding and affection for each other when they have long sailed to- gether. The master is jealous of the care of his ship and that she shall have the very best treatment, while the ship apparently does her best to demonstrate that the kindly care is fully appreciated. Capt. Marry at says that a ship will become sick and sul- len and cranky under the hand of a new master after an old and kindly one has been removed from her. She misses the petting and, according to the fashion of her sex, resents the deprivation. Capt. Matheson, who died with his schooner, was a type of the sailor who loves his ship and who will give his life for his love.—Savan- nah News. Feminine Cynicism. The strenuous army of faddists, kgitators and apostles of all things extraordinary are either resting on their laurels or preparing for a great winter coup. It is now more than nine days since anything was pro- nounced deleterious to our health.— Lady's Pictorial. Man to Blame. Women are more prone to deceit than men, says Good Words. From the time when Scheherazade told her lord 1,001 lies to keep the peace it has been the accepted way. And the men, not the women, are the most to blame. It is what they like and they get It.

In England the proper tion Is one in every 22, in Germany one in 31, In France one In 60, in Italy one in 125, and in Spain one In every 325. Proof of Strong Soul. The tendency to persevere, to per- sist In spite of hindrances, discour agements and impossibilities, it is this that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.— Thomas Carlyle. Elephant Can Travel Fast. The elephant, commonly supposed to be slow and clumsy, can, when ex- cited or frightened, attain a speed of ?0 miles an hour, and, what Is more. It can keep this rate of progress up for half a day. Finds No Balm In Solitude. The heart which loved once and which abandonment struck, does not become easily accustomed to solitude. As If it were avid for new sufferings, It repulses calmness and indifference. —Madame Romieu. Mo"« Women's Rights.

• • Chihuahua, Mexico.—Gen. Luis'Tor-mas, whose wealth Is conservatively tttlmated at 9200,000,000, celebrated the seventy-fifth anniversary of his blisth at his home In this city a few days ago. Gen. Terrazas is said to be the largest ihdivldual land owner in the world, his estates la western Mexl-•o approximating more than 16,000,000 •o* He owns several hundred thou­sand head of cattle, horses, sheep and goats. Some of the richest mines la Mexico belong to him.

He and his son-in-law, Enrique Creel, the acting governor of the state, control the banking business of this portion of Mexico, and they are largely Interested also in some of the big finan­cial Institutions of Mexico City. Three-fourths of the residences an<f business houses in this city of 50,000 people are owned by. Gen. Terrazas, and he' re­ceives an enormous Income from rent­als. Most of the large industrlal'plants in this city and throughout the state were established and are owned by Gen. Terrazas and Gov. Creel.

Despite his advanced age Gen. Ter­razas devotes several hours each day to directing the management of h>« many-interests. He recently mad* a horseback journey of more than *00 miles, inspecting his ranches an\' farms. It was not an infreqent oc­currence while on his trip to spend ten or twelve hours a day in the saddle. He employB many thousands of Mexi­cans and is highly regarded by them all.

Gen. Terrazas has been constitution­al governor of the state of Chihuahua for many years. He retired from the active duties of the office a few years ago and had his son-in-law, Enrique C. Crele, appointed to the place as act­ing govehior. Gov. Creel has Ameri­can ideas and the state is making wonderful industrial progress under his direction.

CATS ABLE TO STOP TRAINS

. Engineers Say Eyes of Feline Family | Are Like Signal Lamps

at Night .

Brookfield, Mo.—"Did you ever see a black cat's eyes when they were in the line of an electric light?" asked Ben Woodlief, traveling engineer for the Missouri division of the Burling­ton road. "If one steps on the rail­road track ahead of the engine and looks up the engineer sees two vivid lights ahead of him as large and Clearly defined as any signal service lights on the road. Sometimes they afe rede but most generally green or white. In the night time, of course, the engineer can't see the cat, and all he can do is to run in obedience to the cat-eye signals. If they are white he goes ahead, without slack­ing; if green he is cautious; if red he applies the air to make a stop. Sometimes a train Is brought to a dead halt before the engineer learns what's up against him. The running men tell me that the eyes of polecat's and rabbits are almost as perfect sig­nals as cat's eyes. No, there's been no talk of training-cats to act as sig­nalmen. Engineers would stand for It, because they hate cats on general principles, and If they had their way would be happy to lay the universal feline on the rails In front of their locomotives and crowd on all steam."

SEEK RELICS OF IRELAND.

Deputation Coming to United States1

to Obtain Objects for Exhibition at Dublift in 1907.

London.—A deputation is going to America to obtain objects of historical Interest for the international exhibi­tion to be held at Dublin in 1907. Prof. Thomas H. Teegan, principal of the Central Training college, Dublin, hat sailed for New York, and Father Pat­rick Lally of Galway add Col. McHack-ett of Dublin will follow. They will visit all the larger cities to obtain rel­ics in the possession of families of Irish descent and objects associated with the Napoleonic era held by Amer­icans. .

While the exhibition is being strong­ly supported opposition to it has been aroused in some quarters. The Irish nationalists are especially opposed to it, John E. Redmond, leader of the Irish parliamentary party in the house of commons, explaining that what Ire­land desired at present was a national and not an international exhibition, as the Irish Industries are not sufficiently developed to be placed beside the man­ufacture of oher countries.

Representations have been made to the state department at Washington not to support the exhibition by en­couraging people to exulbit

Sells Snakes by the Foot. Mount Holly, Pa.—There appears t*

be an abundance of snakes in Burling­ton county, and many residents of tb5 pine land districts find marketing the reptiles a source of considerable profit, In bis searches Hiram Kilpatrlck, ol Woodmansle, caught six pine snake; that averaged five feet in length.

. These were .sold to George V. Bozarth, a dealer at Chatsworth, at the rate oi 15 cents a foot. Kilpatriclc took the snakes "to market" wrapped around his arm, as he had no other way te carry them.

Hadn't the Capacity. The baby of a Maryland family had

been through a siege of chickenpox. The infant's sister, a girl of ten years, being met by the minister's wire one day, that good woman naturally In­quired as to how the baby was get­ting on.

•'He's some better, thank you," said the little girl, a shy and noncom­mittal child

"Very much better, I trust," said the minister's wife.

"Oh, he couldn't, be much better." responded the child, "because, you see. he's too little."—Harper's Weekly.

- Oh, thank you!" exclaimed the de­lighted wife, as her husband handed. her a large bunch of money and told her to go right down town and buy everything she liked.

"Don't mention it," replied the hus­band. "I want you to have everything your heart desires in the way of dresses and bonnets this winter. I realize that I have not been as gen­erous as I should have been, and I hope I may be able to make up for it now. Here, take this double handful ot $20 gold pieecB, too. Look out, there! You're dropping them."

But the double handful of gold 20a fell to the floor and went jingling here and there, and the husband laughed merrily until—,

B-r-r-r-r-r-r! " " It was the alarm clock, and Bhe

heard the voice'of her husband say­ing:

"I'll be late to work again to-day. Say, lend me half a dollar, won't you? I have not enough money for carfare and lunch thlB morning."

HE CARRIEO THE 8AMPLES.

A certain York county preacher for a long time had been dosing himself with a fiery concoction prescribed for some stomach trouble. One day while dining at a hotel he treated himself, as usual, to the regulation heroic dose. An inquisitive Boston drummer on his right hand inquired the reason for tak­ing the medicine. The preacher ex­plained hiB stomach diffioilty, and the benefits of his treatment, and the drummer, who was himself subject to indigestion, then related his own symptoms and politely requested the privilege of trying the remedy. The sympathetic preacher freely gave him a very generous dose, which speedily took effect.

As soon as the traveling man recov­ered his breath and wiped his tears he thus accosted the minister:

"I understand that you are a preacher?"

"I am, sir." "Do you preach hell-fire?" "I do, sir." "Well, you are the first preacher

that I ever saw who carried 'round samples of it."—Boston Herald.

COL MOSBY'S GIFT GUERILLA LEADER 8ENT LOCK OF

HAIR TO LINCOLN.

President Accepted It as a Sample, But Wanted More—How Federal Pris­

oner Saved Life by Hla '•i-' Quick Wit •'

Col. John S. Mosby, the famous guerilla leader, who attended a G. A. R. banquet in Boston a few nights ago, war delighted with the cordiality and good will of his hosts. "Whatever doubt there was in my mind about the war being over disappeared while I was in Boston," he says. "They sim­ply overwhelmed me with kindness. At the banquet I sat next to a man whom I had captured during the war. When I first sat> down I was rather proud that I had captured him. We had not been together a half hour be­fore I began to be sorry that I had captured him, and before the last speech was made I was genuinely sorry that he had not captured me."

Col. Mosby, who is now an assistant attorney in the department of justice, has always been noted for bis sense of humor. It went a long way once to­wards saving a man's life. Col. Mosby and his men lay all night in ambush near a railroad waiting for a federal supply train. It finally came along, and was captured by the confederate, who, however, lost two or three of their men. This did not please Col. Mosby, and he showed it by some of the things he said to the federal pris­oners. "As for you," he said to one of these men, "I am going to hang you the moment I see the sun rise to­morrow morning."

"I hope it will be a cloudy day," said the Yankee. The reply so pleased Col. .Mosby that he did not hang the man who made it or anybody else. In­stead, the prisoners were confined and later exchanged.

It was about the same time in Col. Mosby's, career that he made his famous gift to President Lincoln. His headquarters were at a, Virginia farm­house, and one day the'guards brought to him a man who said he was a farmer and was on his way to Washington to sell some produce. "What reason have I to believe that?" demanded the con-fereate leader. "How do I know you are not a spy? How do I know that you will come back if I let you go?"

The man's manner was so earnes that it impressed Col. Mosby, who finally told him that he might go. "Now that I have done something for you," he said, "I want you to do something for me. I want you to take a present from me to Abe Lincoln." Thereupon he borrowed a pair of scis­sors, clipped off a lock of his own lux­uriant hair and gravely handed it to the farmer. "You give that to Abe with my compliments," he said. The man took it and started for Washing­ton, promising earnestly to return on the second day following.

He was as good as his word. He presented himself promptly on time and informed Col. Mosby that the pres­ent and the compliment had both been delivered.

"And what did he say?" demanded the guerilla leader. ,"Oh," said the farmer, "he Just

laughed and said that if he ever caught you he would not be content with one lock of your hair. He would take the whole of it. But I am sure he did not mean that literally."

Worse .Than Losing Money.. A new form of freak election bet is

detailed in the following story from a Biftem, Utah, correspondent of the' Chicago Chronicle:

"Jules Verne Hall, the famous globe trotter, in order to pay an election bet must refrain from talking during the next, three months. Violation of the agreement means a loss of $2,500 posted as a forfeit.

"Twice during the last four days has Hall been within an ace of losing. On Wednesday night while absent-mindedly gazing across the sage brush an enemy carelessly m qui red: 'Will you have r. drink?'

"The wosd 'Yes' was on his lips, when Hall with a powerful effort re­strained himself and merely nodded assent. Thtsn an argument was start­ed as to the relative merits of the Eng­lish and Russian navies. Hall is a native of the British Isles and when everyone present agreed that Rojest-vensky could have defeated the Eng­lish home lleet, poor Hall spluttered until he grew red in the face.

"The doots were locked and he could not escape, so to save his $$2,500 he gagged hftnself with a blanket. He Is suffering as few men have suffered. Because he dare not speak he has been living on ham and. beans, and he can­not protest when his companions lock him outside the "abin."

A Turkish Millionaire. Mouammer Bey, son of the richest

man in all Turkey, who will be heir to more millions than any other -person In the Ottoman empire, save the heir of the sultan, is in Boston on business, and before he leaves the business men will have something like a cool halt million of his money, while he will have tons of Boston's most improved shoe and cotton machinery.

There is nothing about the sleek appearing man of 35 years, with hla rotund figure, to indicate that he is to be at some time in the future the rich­est man in his native land. He is just as democratic as any of this coun­try's wealthy men, and one wouldn't have to make a very big stretch of imagination to pick him out as an American.

Muamtner Bey, unlike most of his fellow countrymen, is highly educated, and instead of wasting his father's vast wealth by riotous living, he has' mastered the many great Industries that his father controls, and is adding to the fortune. Those who have come In contact with him say that he is as keen as the proverbial Yankee man.

The Knowing and the unSCnvWtog. "When it was reported to the direc­

tors that the cashier was looting the bank, they all resigned In a body."

"Why do you suppose they did that?"

"I can't say, unless It was they a ad a curiosity to know something about the matter."—Puck.

SAILOR LOVED HIS SHIP.

Went Back as It Was Sinking and Went Down with It.

One of the pathetic stories of the storm that swept up the Atlantic coast a few days ago was that of the death of Capt. Matheson, of the schooner Nellie Floyd, wrecked off the North Carolina coast. It is of especial inter­est in this section, because Capt. Matheson and his vessel were well known hereabouts. For a number of years they had been frequent visitovs at Carolina and Georgia ports, where ship and master became familiar fig­ures. When the Floyd foundered and it, was certain that she must leave her bones in that marine graveyard off the North Carolina coast, a life raft of hatches was constructed, and the crew, including the captain, piled on It As they were about to push off, trusting to fortune to be picked up by a passing ship, Capt. Matheson looked back upon his beloved schooner, then in its death thrpes. His heart smote him. He felt like a deserter. The suffering but inanimate bulk called to him, and he'could not resist the call. "I am going back, boys," he said; "good-by and good luck to you." Then he scrambled back to the decks, by that time awash and fast settling. And In sight of the crew the ship and her captain went down to their fate.

It is one of Kipling's favorite themes to illustrate the affection of a captain for his ship, and an engineer for his machinery. It is one of the conten­tions of purists that one cannot love anything incapable of returning affec­tion in kind, but it is no stretch of the truth or license of language to say that the sea is fairly peopled with skippers who love their craft with such' devotion that they prefer death with them to life without them. Such was the case with the British Admiral Tryon, who refused to be rescued when some few years ago off Africa the battleships Victoria and Camper-down came into collision with such flisastrous results to the former, Ad­miral Tryon's flagship. There are those who will assert-that a good ship and a good master come into_ closest understanding and affection for each other when they have long sailed to­gether. The master is jealous of the care of his ship and that she shall have the very best treatment, while the ship apparently does her best to demonstrate that the kindly care is fully appreciated. Capt. Marry at says that a ship will become sick and sul­len and cranky under the hand of a new master after an old and kindly one has been removed from her. She misses the petting and, according to the fashion of her sex, resents the deprivation. Capt. Matheson, who died with his schooner, was a type of the sailor who loves his ship and who will give his life for his love.—Savan­nah News.

Feminine Cynicism. The strenuous army of faddists,

kgitators and apostles of all things extraordinary are either resting on their laurels or preparing for a great winter coup. It is now more than nine days since anything was pro­nounced deleterious to our health.— Lady's Pictorial.

Man to Blame. Women are more prone to deceit

than men, says Good Words. From the time when Scheherazade told her lord 1,001 lies to keep the peace it has been the accepted way. And the men, not the women, are the most to blame. It is what they like and they get It.

In the World's Labor Unions. In New York one out of every 19

persons is a member of a labor or­ganization. In England the proper tion Is one in every 22, in Germany one in 31, In France one In 60, in Italy one in 125, and in Spain one In every 325.

Proof of Strong Soul. The tendency to persevere, to per­

sist In spite of hindrances, discour agements and impossibilities, it is this that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.— Thomas Carlyle.

Elephant Can Travel Fast. The elephant, commonly supposed

to be slow and clumsy, can, when ex­cited or frightened, attain a speed of ?0 miles an hour, and, what Is more. It can keep this rate of progress up for half a day.

Finds No Balm In Solitude. The heart which loved once and

which abandonment struck, does not become easily accustomed to solitude. As If it were avid for new sufferings, It repulses calmness and indifference. —Madame Romieu.

Mo"« Women's Rights. Women are as much entitled to

amuse themselves over' the affairs of Mme. la Mode as men are over horse racing or other sports.—World o* Dress.
