Thomas Atkins. The name of Tommy Atkins, which la a sobriquet of the British private soldier, the world over,, in Honk Kona, Mandalay, New Zealand, the Soudan and the Transvaal, had an official on Instructions to non-commissioned offl cers, as John Doe and Richard Hoe are used In contract forms and other legal papers, for purposes of Illustration. Sample blank returns were furnished to show sergeants and corporals an l recruiting officers how genuine ones should he made out, and Thomas At kins, private, Company B, was the fle titloiiH name always used. Model In (Hvldual reports were also Included in the regulations, signed "Thomas At kins, private. Company It,” or "Thomas Atkins, X, his mark.” Hence when a recruit arrived at a garrison the sot ,Hers usually addressed him ns Thomas Atkins until they found out his real name. Drunken soldiers reported themselves as Thomas Atkins when they were taken up, until the publi; took it up, and Tommy Atkins became an affectionate synonym for the gallant warriors of Her Majesty's land forces —Chicago Record. Stimulating Stamp Sales. The postmaster of a little town in Ohio adopted an Ingenious plan to In crease the sale of postage stamps and so Increase Ids salary. He gave a drink wHli every ten stamps and gave a stamp with every drlnti. Everybody In town soon developed un Intense desire for stamps. The postmaster had, how ever, forgotten the trifling preliminary of taking out a liquor license, and the government, which did not, of course, object to tbc sale of stamps being stimulated, arrested him for stlmulai ing tho people in an illegal manner. A man with such an ingenious turn of mind is, however, not likely to remain long in obscurity. He will be heard from again. Philadelphia Inquirer. Hawaii ami .lapan.

This and other reports were flowed by denials and there seems y h % ... Hl0 tnith of anv y them. One thing is certain, however, and that is that the administration is greatly alarmed at the situation in the house of representatives. situation It was this phase of the that had the cabinet in session Friday. The Cuban matter took up all the time of tho president and his members. As grave as'tlie situation is on account of the attitude of the Spanish, it is as serious in the eyes of the administra tion as the attitude of the republicans iu the house. Currency Reform May Fall. The death knell of all efforts at cur reney reform was sounded in the sen ate at Friday’s session. given Thurs A premonition of it was the day in the decisive vote by which Stanley Matthews resolutions were given the right of way over everything oise; Friday the fate of ail the various efforts to pass such reform laws as will “commit this eountrv more thorough * , ty . «v standard . i in....... was settieu.

This was a surprise to the sil ver men, who had expected to be told that the resolutions would not be al lowed to go through the senate with out the hardest kind of a tight. An agreement was reached that thero shall .he a vote next Thursday. In tho meantime there will he several speeches. Senators Turpin and Stew art have already given notice of their intentions in this respect and some of the republiccns will set forth their views. Those western republicans who have lieen talking silver are to he smoked out.

A San Francisco dispatch says: During the past 4S hours 17 vessels, earryiiq; iu the aggregate more than tour million teet of lumber,have passed ic through the golden gate. Ibis ar rival of so many lumber laden vessels is due wholly to the unprecedented demand for touage to engage in the Alaskan trade.

GEORGIA LUMBERMEN MEET. They Diligently Seek Relief From Rail* roa<l Kxactious. For the second time during the month the members of the Georgia Sawmill Association met in Cordele for the purpose of considering restric tions placed upon them by the rail roads in regard to loading cars. The mill men are very hopeful that bie roads will make them the proper concessions. The association is willing At to hear some of e the extra expenses of . loading according to the recent rulings ° f tlie "*•*<»,bat think the roads should also shave the expense. STRIKERS HOLD THEIR OWN. Through Kympiithj They are Raining Ke ©rafts Ou All Sides. A special from Boston, Mass., says: Fhe sum total of new features iu troubles was the shutting down of the Cabot mill, at Brunswick, Me., be cause of desertion of help in sympathy with striking weavers, and the un nouncement that a small mill of the Social Manufacturing Company, at Woonsocket, R. I., would shut down for a few days for a lack of orders, A side issue brought up during the day was labor legislation in the Massa legislature. It will be remembered that the Ark wright Company, in recommending a cut-down of wages, laid stress upon the competition of southern mills through a longer working day. The club furthermore urged the repeal of restrictive measures in force iu Massachusetts, With the first inkling of an attempt to carry out this recommendation labor representatives in the house introduced bills for new legislation for a 55-hour week, no over time for women and children and to investigate the present textile situation. So on the fourth day of the strike the popular interest was directed to legislative hulls rather than to New Bedford. In Fall River the discontent is grow ing and the mill officials know it and are apprehensive. Forecasting the future, theevidences of stubbornness of the operatives in defending their position is shown in Biddeford, Me., where arrangements for serving strike rations are being made. There the citizens, even Chi uese laundrymen, are centributiiig money and societies are offering ail sorts of aid. The strike may assume accute con ditions there sooner than at any other place, judging from local indications. TIMES ANTICIPATES TROUBLE. London Paper Dincugseis Representative Hitt’s Speech on the Cuban Question. The Loudon Times, in an editorial on Representative Hitt’s speech in the house of representatives a day or two ago, says: “We assume that President McKin ley does not wish his hand to be forced by the opposite party. He does not want war with Spain, because his heart is set upon promoting the eco nomical and commercial development of the United States. Yet it seems doubtful whether he will prove strong enough to resist the pressure brought to bear upon him. One of the usual kaleidoscopic changes in American politics has just been effected. The Cuban question is evidently much graver than it was two days ago, and the government is not any stronger. An accident may precipitate any thing.” UNANIMOUS ASSENT LACKING. liquidation Plan of Chestnut Street Na tional Hank May Fall Through. With Thursday expired the period set by the comptroller of currency for the receipt of depositors’ assets to the plan of voluntary liquidation propos ed for the Chestnut Street National bank at Philadelphia. Unanimous assent is necessary and it was stated that all the depositors had been favorably heard from except a very few. Apart from the few withdrawing de positors, the state has not yet assented to the plan and it has an account in this bank of $205,000 from the state treasurer, aud this may prove a stum bling block to the success of the plan. OBJECTED TO AGREEMENT. Many HundredMen Thrown Out of Work By M»ehi e an Ship Builder.. Wheeler* Co. s shipyards at Bay City, Mieli., shut down Thursday morning, throwing 700 men out of work, as a result of the riveters refus ing to accept a 7 per cent increase in wages. The riveters had been on a strike several days, trying to obtain the same Beale of wugeH pftia in When the riveters declined the com pany’s offer of increase, the company resolved to close the yard and endeav 01 . j 0 enl ploy an entirely new force, The riveters would have accepted the proffered increase had they not been required to sign an agreement individuals, not and to act as a body, but as to agree that the company retain 10 per cent of their wages as a forfeit against quitting without its consent.

I’av Their Lament Devotion. !■’ nn A-I,y Hueil Pncliytlerin. A circus ami menagerie in now mak ing a tour through the Rooky Mount ain country, aud, according to the Nchraaka Stute Journal, the white ele (>haqj it carries has made a deep re ligious impression on the Indian visi tors to the show. At a Montana town a party of Ban nock Indians entered the menagerie tent aud began to inspect the numer ous dens of wild nuimnls with the unemotional interest of the taciturn red man. Presently, however, the old chief was seen to start, aud then, with a cry, he ran toward the platform con taining Keddali, the white elephant. The other Indians followed, and, en circling the chief, gazed at tho curious animal with expressions varying from abject fear to the most pronounced form of awe-stricken wonder. Slowly tbe old chief drew from under his blauket a small square of deerskin and held it aloft. In the centre, worked in white heads, and showing consum mate skill in the design, was the figure of au elephant. The chief pointed to the design and then at Keddali, while he hastily uttered a few guttural ejacu lations to his companions. Suddenly much to the surprise of the crowd that had by this time surrounded the party, the entire group of Indians threw themselves upon the ground in a posi tion of adoration before the white ele phant. Presently the chief arose, fol lowed by liis companions, and then, replacing the deerskin under his blanket, led the way into the big tent. An effort was made to discover the meaning of the strange proceeding, but the Indians refused to talk. Au old hunter, however, volunteered the information that the Bannocks have a tradition that ages ago their fathers came from the laud of the white ele phant, and that they had come to tbe circus for the express purpose of pay ing their. devotions to the strange beast. If this was the true explana tion another link has been furnished in that chain of proof which seems to connect the American aborigine with the people of the Far East. WISE WORDS.

The wonderful alertness and activity of sea lions in the water, which en ables them to get fish for their food in Arctic seas, are qualities that are mani fested in a still more striking way by the captive specimens at the Zoo, says the Philadelphia Record. These three sprightly individuals in the big out door tank have developed into rat catchers that never miss their prey. Rats are pests that naturally thrive about the animal houses, and at nights, when the Zoo is deserted by visitors, the rodents run in all directions. They are fond of water, aud they find their way in considerable numbers to tho sea lion tank to dabble at the water’s edge. They may go to the lake aud seal pond with impunity, but when they venture to the home of the sea lions that visit is their last. Swiftly and noise lessly the sea lion dives aud reappears at the surface precisely at the spot where the rat is peeling into the ffink. One snap and it is all over. The rat goes down the hungry throat at a sin gle gulp. So many rats do the sea lions catch iu this fashion that they are sometimes indisposed to take their early morning meal of fish thrown to them by the keepers. A Kiver That is NoL One of the most remarkable freaks of nature occurs in New Mexico. It is a river that is not a river. No one has ever seen it. The bed of it lies in a valley between the Rio Grande and. Pecos Rivers. It is well defined, and many travelers have followed its wind ings to learn, if possible, what be comes of the great volume of water which should be there. It is not a dead or dried-up stream. It is simply lost. Numerous big tributaries flow into it from the neighboring mountains. Immediately, however, they reach the bed of the main stream they disappear from sight. Thus, for somo reason or another a river which should be 300 miles iu length has no existence which could be proved. Women Hotl Carriers.

Some very competent writers, fright ened by the disproportion between the wheat growirln England and the quan tity needed for our daily bread, have recently urged the establishment of public granaries, for use in time of war. The only wonder Is that the figures which impress them have not made more impression on the public. But while hundreds of thousands of acres of good wheat lands lie unculti vated in England, the proposal to buy and hoard foreign corn is rather too previous. Our best public granaries arc the wheat fields of old England, which have fallen Into partial ruin and pre mature decay. The wheat fields of England have two special claims to consideration, based on their merits, and apart from sentiment, though we have lately be gun to apprehend that national senti ment in great concerns may be as val uable as public spirit in small ones. But the fact remains that the wheat fields of England are the oldest na tional industries In this eonutry, and the most productive In the world. A wheat tUld a thousand years old is quite a common sight in this country. Of course, it has not grown a crop of corn every year in the ten centuries, but during that long sequence of ages, in the fixed and abiding order of this ancient country, that particular area of land has been cultivated, with the production of wheat as its main ob jest, and it has remained as part of the English granary from the days of Edward the Confessor until those of Victoria. Many of the wheat fields are far more ancient than this, hut the record of Doomsday Book is a practical voucher for a period ot 1,000 years. The custom of the Saxon cul tivators, and tho evidence of local names, are proof of a still greater an tiquity of cultivation on some of the best corn land; and beyond the days of the Saxon" lie the last two centuries of Roman occupation, when England was the great wheat producing coun try of the west, and supplied the pop ulation of Rome with daily bread. Perhaps the most interesting feature of our ancestral corn lands is the small degree in which their appearance can have changed in the course of ten or twelve centuries. Their area is much greater than in the old times, when villages were separated by wide wood lands, and only grouped and contig uous in the open country* The early Saxon times were not days in which men cared to lay field to field. There was plenty* of ground available, and of this the villagers cultivated and sowed with corn as much as they needed for their year’s supply.—Loudon Weekl} Country Life. Chronic Rheumatism.
