BUhop Fat V» • Good Fickt, *■« tk« Sparta Cklpped la Bishop Worthington of Omaha is now a strict churchman. His sermons are severe in doctrine and hold out little hope to sinners unless they repent However, the bishop knows human na ture. He learned it in the beet school for an education of that kind—the far west. s Years ago, when Mr. Worthington was a recent graduate from the theolog ical seminary, he began his gospel work in Butte, Mon. The town was then a mining camp pure and simple. It had saloons, dance halls and gamMing rooms, but neither church nor school. Its inhabitants were rou|h, tough and ready—manliness was their god; and it was this manliness which made the west what it is. At college Worthington was a boxer and an oarsman. In Butte these accom plishments served him well, for they gave him a strong arm and a qufek eye. His gospel services were held in a feint. There was no money to build a church. One day as he was walking along the principal street the bully of the town approached him. “Do you want to fight?” asked the desperado. “No,” replied the clergyman. “Then take that!” But “that” never came. WttWfag ton warded off the blow, and with his good right fist sent the bully to gram in scientific fashion. That night the affair was talked Over in Cy Henry’s gambling house. “I like that chap Worthington/’ said Bill Johnson. “He strikes a good blow. Let’s all play for him tonight.” The proposition was agreed to, and the next morning |l,Boo won at faro was presented to the minister. ' That money built the first church in Butte. —Chicago Chronicle. , ORIGIN OF KALAMAZOO. Pretty Leuend That la Reapamwlhle For the Town’s Name. The name of Kalamazoo, like Oshkosh and one or two others, has come to be to foreigners a synonym of American absurdity. It is often chosen, for some occult reason, to illustrate that form of vernacular English known as “United States.” But all thought of ridicule vanishes when its romantic origin is considered, for it is the echo still lingering about the memory of two dusky lovers, who, in that long gone time when Michigan was the home mainly of Indian tribes, lived and loved on the banks of the riv er which now bears their names. Kahla, the young warrior, was straight of limb and eagle eyed, while to Mahzoo had been given by the Great Spirit the many graces and virtues for which Indian maidens have become noted in song and legend. Life to these two possessed all the charm which true affection has ever granted to lovers, and the days, as they came and went, brought only abounding joy. Each summer evening, as the twilight deepened and the time drew near for her lover’s return from the chase, the maiden watched from her bower in the swaying branches of a giant elm over hanging the river’s edge for the first sign of his coming. As the bow of his canoe shot round the curve away in the distance her clear musical voice called to him, “Kahla, Kahla!” and from the young warrior came in loving tones the response, “Mahzoo!”—Chicago Times- Herald. Twain's Material For Stories. In Beilin, when one pays his fare to the conductor of a street car, he receives a ticket, which is soon afterward col lected by an inspector, who boards the car at a fixed point. One day, just as a joke, Mark Twain paid his fare 15 times on one trip, each time throwing the ticket out of the window or under his seat as soon as he had deposited the regular fare with the conductor. A few minutes later the inspector would get on the car and demand tickets all around. Os course Twain had none to show and had to buy another, apparent ly with reluctance. The performance amused the American, dumfounded the conductor, who had never met so reck less a passenger, and tickled the native passengers, who thought the foreigner well punished for his negligence. By this modest investment material was obtained for a Capital story, which net ted Mark Twain just |SOO. —Ladies’ Home Journal. Homesick. A recent article on homesickness re calls the reply made by a young Swed ish maid to her mistress. It expresses clearly, though in imperfect English, what every sufferer from homesickness feels. “You ought to be contehted and not fret for your old home, Ina,” said the lady as she looked at the dim eyes of the girl. “ You are earning good wages, your work is light, every one is kind to you and you have plenty of friends here.” “Yas’m,” said the girl, “but it is not the place where I do be that makes me vera homesick, it is the place where I don’t be. ” —Youth’s Companion. The Real Reason. Smithers—Why don’t you run for school director, Brown? Brown—Well, you see, sir, there is the farm to look after, and the work on the roads, the timber to cut, the strong party feeling, my views on the educa tional question, my tax theory, my ideas of the money problem, and then, be sides—my wife wants to run.—Harper’s Bazar.

ACTING AFRAID OF DOGS. n Xa the Barest Way In the World to Provoke an Attack. It is curious, to me wonderful, how well dogs understand people. They seem at a glance or very soon thereafter to decide in their minds whether or not it would be safe to assail one who en ters their owner’s premises, says Lip pincott’s Magazine. My own opinion is that-every one of them, big or little, of high or low degree, would like to bite every stranger that be sew. Their love for their master makes them jealous dr makes them pretend to be jeakx* of everybody who approaches them, and tftey debate momentarily whether or not a comer is afraid of them. Ifbe fir not, they either extend a friendly salute, which always is deceitful, or assume to be indifferent If Adis, they give him a bitA ■ftfotok or lem YlMp, than slink away trimpoustoto toifeqwenees. Fovyeart and years I have followed th® role, when visiting a person resid ing out oftown, unless I know positive ly that he keeps no dog of any size, to halt at the'gate, raise a halloo and await not only my host’s invita tion, but his approach and his ao companßmtit into his house. I could not tell the number of times wherein I have been barked at furiously from the inside by dogs whose owners declared that in all their lives they had never done such a thing before to a man of genteel appearance. The counsels and admonitions bestow ed upon me might have excited some gratitude if they had not been wholly useless. I have been asked so many times that it makes me almost sick to have the question repeated, “Why don’t you just go along without noticing such things, not being or at least pre tending not to be afraid? Not one dog in 10,000 will try to bite a gentleman unless he is provoked or sees that he is being avoided. ” • A Cheap Decoration. A prominent German actor, relates Albert L. -Vandam in The Illustrated London News, had fulfilled half of his “starring” engagement in the capital of a grand duchy, and as yet no recog nition of his talents had been forthcom ing in the shape of a decoration. Dis gusted, the player announced his inten tion of departing the following morning. Early on that day the theater intend ant acquainted his grand ducal master with what had happened. The conver sation took place in the garden of the schloss, situated on the road to the sta tion, and suddenly an open carriage with the actor in it hove in sight. “Be quick I”'said the prince. “Get, me that box on my writing table. If go he must, we’ll at any rate try to satisfy him in his ambition.” The intendant ran, and returned just as the vehicle passed the gates. “One moment, Hen B ,” shouted the prince. “Here is something to remember me by. ” The actor bowed low, and went his way. In another moment, however, his conveyance reappeared at the gates. “There are two crosses, your highness, ” he exclaimed. “Never mind,” replied the prince. "Give the other to the coachman. ” Tlt-tat-to. In the Century Dictionary the deriva tion is given from tit, tat, to, “thres meaningless words” used in counting. However, the East Friesio name (ses Koolman’s "E. Fr. Diet”) is tik-tak tuk, evidently a more original form. In this name the word tik has the same sense as E, tick, a mark, in allusion to the mark made by the player on the slate, while tak, tuk, are variants of the same theme, made on the principle of altering the vowel, as in Germanic verbs of the third strong conjugation, such as sing, sang, sung. Hence the name is by do meant "meaningless, ’’ but has an obvious ref erence to the ticks, or marks, made by the players, and the word is threefold instead of reduplicated, because the ob ject of the game is to make three tickl in a row.—Notes and Queries. Merely From Observation. "Is Miss Blinkins at home?” asked Mr. Saunders of the Irish girl who an swered his ring at the door. " Yes, I b’lave she is, sir. ’’ "Is she engaged?” "An is it engaged you say? Falx, an I can’t tell you, sir, but she kissed Mr. Vincent last evenin as if she had nev seen the like uvhlm, an it’s engaged I b’lave they are, sir. ” —Exchange. Those Girl*. She —He kissed me when I was not dreaming of such a thing. Her—l’ll wager you were not. You always were wide awake when kissing was in sight.—Cincinnati Enquirer. If a man could yell as loud in propor tion to his size as a baby can, telephone companies would soon be unable to de clare dividends. —Atlanta Constitution. People who think they are misunder stood often are really understood too welL—Chicago Record. STERN DISCIPLINE. It to Nmm*m7 I* War and Üba Soldier Mart Lear* Sa flataatt. One of Detroit’s retired officers, who fought in two wars and helped for years to restrain the savage outbreaks of our Indiana, thus delivered himself to the Writer: "The very hardest lesson a young American has to learn when he enters the army is that of obedience. For the *nt time, Mb individual authority is de throned. He is as fractious as a thor oughbred oolt that long rebels against the whip and spur. It is hard for Mm to understand that his freedom of action must be subordinated to Military neces sity. He chafes, if he does not openly rebel, but when once whipped into line he makes the best soldier on earth. "My first drillmaster had been my friend and the friend of my family from my boyhood up. Wo had bunted and fished and courted together and ex changed secrets with a freedom that does not obtain among brothers. One day, early in my experience as a soldier, and while everything was being hurried with a view to getting us into Mexico, W' had been drilling till I felt ready to drop. The repeated orders struck pain to my earn and I would have conscien tiously sworn that my musket weighed a ton. At length, when within easy ear shot of him, I shouted, ’For heaven’s sake, Bob, stop this tomfoolery and let’s go over to the tavern.’ "He never looked at me but roared, „ ’Corporal, take that man and drill him ’ like the devil. ’ "The corporal did, and I thought I’d die of exhaustion. I fully meant to challenge the drillmaster and whip him if he declined, but he succeeded in mak ing me understand the imperative neces sity of unquestioning obedienoe in the soldier. It’s tough with the raw re cruit, but the quicker he learns his part the better it is for all concerned.’’—De troit Free Praes. WAYS OF THE BLUE CRAB. * -<■ Some of It* PeouUarltlo* »» Ofwerved »t Now York's Aquartam. While the blue crab is not commonly thought of as a swimmer and does in fact spend the greater part of its time on the bottom, yet it can very easily sustain itself in the water and swim at a very fair rate of speed. It swims end wise, and when swimming it carries one big claw thrown forward and bent back at the middle joint, making a point projecting at that end of the body, while the other big claw trails straight out astern. If it changes direc tion, it crooks the claw it had been car rying straight and lets the other go free. If it sustains itself in the water without progressing, it carries its big daws in front of itself as it would nat uridly do under ordinary circumstances on the bottom, but it has to keep its little claws in motion to sustain itself, and in swimming the little claws are kept actively at work. Besides making a good degree of progress through the water in swimming the blue crab can change its course or swim to a higher or lower level with facility. When frightened, the blue crab movea off ride ways, but when moving about at home and undisturbed it may move straight forward. Its body may be inclined at any angle to the line of .progress, but its motion still be forward, the big claws carried crooked around in front. It may be seen moving thus in one of the larger tanks at the aquarium, in which there are blue crabs, lobsters and other things. The temperature of the watte now just suits the crustaceans, and they are very lively. Blue crabs may be seen swimming here, and also waUdng about, stepping down from stones that are as high as they them selves are wide with perfect dignity, if not grace of manner, and walking or carrying their claws before them.—- New York Sun. The First Teeeap*. Even after tea was introduced into Europe and had come into general use teacups were scarce. At the same time coffee was introduced; but, apart Constantinople, the first coffee cups In Europe date back only as far as 1645 in Venice, 1659 in Paris, 1652 in London and 1694 in Leipsic. From the first, however, the conventional oriental cof fee cup, without stem or handle, was little used, and in Germany not at all The Chinese teacup was used for tea, coffee and chocolate aswelL Specimens of porcelain were undoubtedly intro duced into Europe in the middle ages, yet not till the sixteenth century were cups imported from China in any great quantities, and even then it was as arti cles of vertu. Most of those found their way back into China again, as collect ing porcelain is a lasting fad there, and high prices are paid for good specimens. The collection of Chinese porcelain, if only the genuine specimens are desired, requires immense study and knowledge, as the Chinese are skillful imitators and pat numertras falsifications on the market. IsStrUrtM Odon. Every human being has a specific odor of his own, according to A. Bethe in the Archiv der Gesammten Physiolo gic, by Which he can be recognized not merely by dogs but by persons with sen sitive organs of smell. Thecase is men tioned of -a man who blindfolded oould pick out etch indAvidnal in s company of 20 by his odor. The smell is not born with us, but develops gradually till the age of puber ty, after which it remains unchanged. Members of a family have a kind of common odor. Which persists even When they have lived apart tot a long time. The entire area of the United States is placed at 1,885,017,692 acres, of which 741,702,865 aaies are now owned by individuals or by corporations or states or have passed out of the control ot the general government Savages, on the whole, live longer than civilized people. - | VHP I Un IM I The Kind You Have willicit mF toWWto Wlrnte in nse for over 30 years, has herne the signartwre of under his per- * Allow no one to deceive you in this.
