York alone. These are the New York | “Count the seeds. There is a perfect City, which has 04 pnpils and has gradu- j craze over it. Nearly every lady who ated 208; the New York hospital, with I comes along here doing her day's mar- 48 pupils and 192 graduates, and Mount keting says, 'Send me up a pumpkin, Sinai, with CO pupils and 111 graduates. There are also smaller schools in the city, but, great or small, Bellevue must always be honored as the pioneer. Her graduates are at the bead of moot of the important schools and hospitals in the country, and have even gone so fat afield as England, Italy and China. The next school to be established was the New York city, which was started by the commissioners of charities and correction in 1877, and is entirely sup ported by the city. Until 1889 it was known as the Charity Hospital school, because it began there, but as it grew its work spread, until the old name was misleading and bad to be changed. It is now the largest and in some re spects the most importuit of all the schools, as it nurses five different hos pitals—Charity and Maternity on Black well’s Island, the Infants’ hospital on Randall’s Island, Gouvernenr, at Gou- vemeu^Slip, and Harlem, at the foot oi East One Hundred and Twentieth street, the two last being accident or emergency hospitals, while at Charity the cases are largely chronic. Besides the pnpils oi the school there are thirty-two perma nent trained nurses at Charity and Ran dall’s Island, making nearly a hundred in'nll, for whom the superintendent it directly responsible, and over whom she has full authority. The other schools in the city are supported from the funds ol the hospitals which they nurse.—Mrs, Frederick Rhinelander Jones in Scrib ner's. Flsli with Ilnm Label*. If any one engaged in sea fishing should capture fish with brass labels tied to their tails with aluminum wire or a black silk cord an explanation will no doubt be somewhat eagerly desired. There are hundreds of fish so treated in tho sea, and it need not be concluded that prac tical jokers have lieen at work. The brass label is an indication that tiio fish wearing it 1ms been in the hands of the grave men of science who are investigat ing the habits, the food and tho growth conditions of fish in Scottish waters. Twc objects are served by the label attach ment. In tho event of the fish being recap tnred by any one who will give informa tion to the scientific cruisers of the Scot tish fishery board on the Garland there will be something known about its mi gratory habits, its rate of growtli in a state of freedom may also be investigat ed. It might be thought that the chance of meeting with these labeled fish again would be very small, but it appears that the Garland cruisers themselves lmvo re- captured 2) per cent, of the plaice nnd 18 per cent, of the cod wearing their medals. But only plaice, cod and skate were recaptured. The experiments nre to be continued on a large scale. They do not interfere with tho health of the fish, which when recaaght are plump and in good condition.—London Illustrated News. si olin la the Older. Among a certain coterie in thi* city more or less speculation' was a short time since going on concerning the rela tive ages of Senator Charles B. Farwel] and his brother John V., tho merchant prince. It wns of no use to consult the public records, for they differed nnd were not reliable. And as John V. simply shook his head and smiled in answer to inquiries on the subject, and as tho senator when in Washington de clined to express himself in writing, the individuals interested were compelled tc let their thirst for knowledge continue nnslakencd until the latter should re turn. When he did return he was ill, but that was no obstacle, and upon gain ing his prince the committee put the question to him. The se.%ior looked at them for a moment, raised himself on his elbow and replied in feeble tones: "I was bom first, but John is the older." Then ho laydown on his pillow, turned over, nnd the committee, bursting with a plethora of information, withdrew.— Chicago Herald. Wealthy. A prominent citizen of St. Paul wus in Minneu;>olis and met a former acquaint ance whose ordinary condition was what is known as impeeunions. This time, however, his face was fairly beaming. "How are you?" he asked in a cheerful bass voice as he extended his hand to the man from St. Paul. “First rate. How are you?" "Splendid! Do you know"—here he dropped his voico to a confidential key —“I’ve been given the use for life of a half million dollar estate over on Nicol let avenue?" “Yon haver asked the other man in utonisbment “Yes; the pnblic library."—SL Paul Pioneer-Press. largo one; my little boy wants to count the seeds.’ “I thought at first it was jack-o'-lan terns they wanted them for, each as we used to make when I was a boy, but it seems that there is a guessing contest for a pony going on. The child guess ing the nearest to the correct number of seeds in a giant pnmpldn exhibited in one of their windows gets the pony, and these boys nre hunting a few facts on the seed qnestion. 'Tisn't a bad idea, bnt it keeps os produce men hustling for big pumpkins.”—Washington Post. Floral Fashion*. The chrysanthemum is in the ascend ant, and very soon every house, flat or room will be illnmined by its splendid bloom. This is one of the effects of tak ing Japanese art into onr bosom. We have learned the decorative lesson and profited, for it would seem a flowerless antnmn were we to be deprived now of this perfect bit of natural decoration. And another floral idea has also arrived from Japan, one which bids fair to rival the more fragile creations of the green- honse. Dwarfed trees, strange, stunted, gnome like plants, set in the artistic porcelain pots of that land of art and invention, will la) used for dinner table and house decoration. Already they are employing them in London houses, and no donbt in time they will appear here, superseding the familiar rubber plants and palm, and giving that one note of vernal oddity 60 prized by the tasteful owner of a well composed room. —Boston Herald. Lightning Kills Bird*. A singular story is told by a head gamekeeper in Prussian Silesia. A few weeks ago one of his under keepers fonnd in the tract of shooting country under his chargo a covey of partridges, two old birds and fifteen young ones, all lying dead. They were huddled up close together within tho space of a square yard, bnt were too decomposed to show nny reliuhlo signs of the cause of their death. Poison was at first sus pected, as the spot was close to some peasants' allotment, but a careful ex amination of the ground revealed the fact that the birds had been struck by lightning. The flash had struck a little monnd a short distance away, and then conrsed nlong tho ground, and tho grass surrounding tho spot where tho par tridges lay had n burned and yellow ap pearance.—Exchange. Walt Whitman's Humor. Walt Whitman is popularly thonght to have no sense of hnmor, bnt one day a young man dropped in upon him at hit bamble home in Camden, N. J., intro duced himself as a poet, and begged to be allowed permission to read selection! from a bundle of manuscripts which he carried. "No, thank yon," said Whit man. courteously bnt firmly, “I have beta paralyzed twice.”—San Francisco Argonaut. ~ To Lubricate His Words.

The postoffice department will not pay the $1,000 reward offered for tho capture and conviction of Bubo Bur row. There is a standing reward offered by the postoffice department for tho cap ture nnd conviction of nny one robbing the mails. This is tho reward that ap plied to Rnbe Burrow. But it will not bo paid because there was no convic tion, nor has proof been established in court that Rube Burrow robbed the mails. Tho department officers know he did, bnt they never pay a reward with out legal proof and conviction. Thus the captnrcra of Rubo Burrow will fail to get $1,000 of tho $7,500 reward on the head of the noted outlaw.—Atlanta Con stitution. The Parts Hull Ulna. Tho arena of the Rne Pergolese, Paris, where bull fights take place every Sun day and Wednesday, was several days ago the scene of an accident which will probably prove fatal. It was recently thought that greater interest would bo given to the spectacle by the addition of negroes stimulating the bull with point ed cudgels during the fight. One of these men was so seriously gored by an infuriated bull that ho wns carried out of the arena and conveyed to his lodg ings.—Pall Mall Gazette. Mme. Artond, of Paris, died recently, and as not a stiver of her money could be found in the hands of her ngents her heirs began n search for it in the furni ture of her home. After ripping np everything they examined a plaster bust of the Venns of Milo, and there was the treasure, amounting to a considerable fortune. The base of the statue was covered over underneath with oilcloth, and when the covering was removed out tumbled a choice collection of bank notes, bonds, securities and obligations.
