FEAR IN HIGH PLACES, The Psychological Views of a Famou* Steeple-Climber. P. F. O’Neil of Charlestown, a Meeple-cihnber, asked if he ever felt fear In high places, answered: “Of course, I feel fear at times. Fear is common to all mankind. Nut to feel foar is not courage; to overcome fear is the true quality of courage. Not long ago Prof. Taussig, of Harvard, who is Interested in the matter from a psychological standpoint, wrote to me a similar question. YYhttt 1 told him l will tell you. “I divide the nerve force of a man Into two parts-the impelling force aud the restraining force; the same impell¬ ing forte that causes: a body of recruits at first to run under fire, and the re straining force that causes them to overcome for various reasons the first natural fear. So in climbing, one un used to it is by the natural Impelling force of Ills nervous system afraid— afraid that his legs, his arms, hi* sup port will give v.ay and plunge him down. Shakespeare, who touched on all human emotions, touched on this feeling of fear In high places, when in 'King lAtar' he pictured JSdwafd at the cliffs of Dover. "The only way to get over the natu¬ ral fear is by squiq. restraining force, from either within or without. 1 re¬ member once, when a new hoy at sea was ordered aloft by a mate, that lie trembled with fear, and begged to lie let out of it: ‘Upon my soul, sir, I can’t go up there.’ This was his first Impelling Impulse. But when the mate touched him up with a rope's end, he was at the top of the mast so quick that the mate could not follow him. The pain on his outer nerves brought him to bis senses, and made him exert his restraining force. So If you Imp pen to be with any one who shows signs of fear in a high place, a few smart slaps on the face will bring him to himself. The right medicine for un¬ conquerable four In a high place is im¬ mediate pain on the outside nerves. “Fear can be overcome like any natural passion, I remember that when 1 began to climb 1 felt sensations of numbness In (lie hack of my head; and at such rimes I used to stop and devote myself to restoring courage. The way to do It Is to remember Hint support is nt hand, and that It de¬ pends only upon yourself to make use of it. “Climbing lfl, in fact, really a less dangerous occupation than driving a restive horse or an eleclrlc enr; for (lie safety of the climber depends almost entirely on himself, while In (lie oilier ease many chances of accident are be¬ yond bis control.” Boston Transcript. rCl NAM Fa)>K 1 UBS I TI H do fiOt Mail) thv> bnnd» or kj>oi ihe kettle.

He spent a portion of the summer at Long Branch, and during the time had a number of weak spells. It was not admitted then by his physician or family that he was seriously ill. About a month ago Mr. Hobart’s ill "ess took o decided change for worse, shortly after that a notice was jsguftfl by Hobart’s family to the public admitting that the vice presi dent’s condition was very critical and that little hope of his recovery was en tertained. Sorrow At Wnalilngton. All the flags in Washington wore half-masted out of respect to the mem¬ ory of Vico President Hobart. The announcement of his death, while not unexpected, came as a distinct shock and cast a deep gloom over the city, where he wan loved and honored, j , Secretary of State Hay, upon whom the succession to the vice presidency ; falls, ^ was visibly ^ affected when he left ^ flo Baid uo arrange . j president menffi j ia d and ye t been all the made, members but that of the his cabinet would attend the funeral. By the death of Mr. Hobart the j office of vice president of the United Staten becomes vacant for the rest of President McKinley’s term, on the law provides no succession. A president pro tempore of tho senate will bo elected by that body when congress assembles. Garrett A. Hobart was eminently successful both in business and iti pol itics. His reputation as a man of affairs and as one of tho shrewdest business men in the country was per¬ haps greater than his reputation as a political leader and statesman until his election to the vice presidency three years ago. Mr. Hobart was born in 1844 at Long Branch, N. J. His ancestors on his father’s side were En glish and on Ufa mother’s side Dutch, Thirty-three years ago he was grad¬ uated from Rutger’s college and began teaching school. Three months later be entered upon the study of law with Socrates Tuttle, a prominent lawyer in Passaic county, and who was at that time mayor of Paterson. Young Hobart is said to hare arrived at Pat erson with but a dollar and fifty cents in his pocket, and from this small l>e ginniug ho made his way, unaided, to wealth and prominence.

Speaking of the union label Mr. Oompers said that there were thirty seven different organizations now fisinc the label and that tt was growing in popularity very rapidly. He defended the boycott as a legal aud proper weapon f> r the workingman, holding that what he had aright as an iadivid- 1 ual to do, he was justified in uniting with others to do. ARMY LIFE AROUND MANILA. Regulation* for the Bivouac After the Fight Ing of the Day. The soldier’s life in the Philippines must be of exciting interest to those far away, when we read of his bravo deeds and hardships as seen on the field of action. After the din and ex¬ citement of the day’s battle, the sim¬ plicity and regularity with which towns are occupied after the capture is absorbing in itself. No looting is permitted, though nearly all houses are found vacated. Every officer and man is tired out following the elation, manoeuvring, and attacking during the day through tlie inire of rice-paddles and deeply plowed sugar fields, wading and ford¬ ing streams without a moment’s pause to learn of depth or bottom. The lines of troops go to their as¬ signed places for the might’s bivouac encamped in strictly military order, and ready at any instant to form in order of battle or to inarch, Places for each organization are indicated and understood before the stacking of guns is permitted. Confusion and dis¬ aster, especially at night attacks, are otherwise more than likely to occur. Ilut much is yet to be done, and done promptly, that early rest may be given. The regimental commander quickly reconnoitres the best points for outposts, and before ranks are broken has the outpost details formed and sent to occupy these points; cover¬ ing his front, flank, and connections un¬ der the officer of the day, the execu¬ tion being further superintended and reconnoitred by tbe field officer of the day, wlio improves or corrects posi¬ tions. Outposts are very important; they cover approaches to the main body, discover movements of the ene¬ my, and give timely warning; prevent surprise and give rest and quiet to the army. Cossack posts, so called—although in reality an American idea—are general¬ ly adopted. Each post consists of three sentinels and a non-commissioned offi¬ cer—one of the sentinels on the look¬ out' in a tall tree or on a housetop if available; the others are ten or twen¬ ty yards in support and resting with arms at hand and without removing cartridge belts. Arms of the troops not detailed for outpost duty are now stacked, ammun nitlon belts refilled, sentinels posted over the water supply, that water be not wasted or riled; that the water near the troops be guarded for their use; that next below for the animals, and further down for washing pur¬ poses. Details are made to bring w-ood and water to tbe company cooks, who soon have the steaming coffee and sup¬ per ready for the soldier, who is then wrapped In his blanket, if he has been able to carry it, or, perforce, it has been brought up on bis company cari¬ bou cart. He is additionally fortunate if by good luck his bivouac is near some of the nipa huts, which ho is allowed to occupy. But do not imagine a snug little furnished cottage, for although hastily abandoned, there is not a bit of furniture or kitchen ware or any blankets in the houses, which are ab¬ solutely denuded of everything, if such tilings ever existed there. And so our Tommy Atkins turns ill for the night’s rest, probably broken by the alarms and firing on the lines toward 3 or 4 o’clock in the morning. lie has not troubled himself to put on liis pa¬ jamas, and so is ready at the 5 o’clock reveille, under arms, awakening cheer¬ ful and eager for another “scrap.” On tlio march he has learned to avoid excessive drinking of water and to have his canteen filled until water which lias been boiled, or. better yet, with weak tea, slightly sweetened, be¬ fore starting. I commend this highly, from practical and personal use, and it Is most refreshing. Spirits, especially before exertion, only give transient strength. The clanger of heat exhaus¬ tion is lessened by wearing a wet cloth or some wet grass in the hat. The Filipinos say: “Los Americanos don’t fight fair. Instead of going back after a battle to have dinner and smoke cigarettes, they keep on going ahead and want to fight again.”—New York Times. TRYING TO HELP MATTERS. The Little Brother Was Aaxieus to Earn Some Motley. No youth who has not yet been through the trials and tribulations of courtship has any adequate conception of what they are, says tbe Detroit Free Press. Out in the suburbs there is a handsome group of residences and tbe people occupying them are largely a community unto themselves. They have their own "set," they exchange visits instead of calls, ami gossip about each other with all the freedom that obtains in a small town. A young man from down in the city regarded one of the girls out there as his “steady,” aud was correspondingly attentive. At every visit he ran a gantlet. In winter there were faces smiling from the window panes, and when weather permitted he had to pass groups that studied every phase of his looks and movements as though lie were an imported curiosity. The climax came during one of the earlier summer evening'meni. evenings Tt was licht long after the and those who were not in their gardens were on the front verandas, so that nothing passed unnoticed. One youngster had broken his bicycle, while trying to ride tjirouah an old gr“S annle tr«* and »h„ Uirgm of the was at the seem girls SrriT brother spied AT.?•"""*« him.

William Waldorf Astor, owner of tbe Pall Mall Gazette, according to a Lon¬ don dispatch, leads a very solitary life. He goes down to his office at 11:30 each morning. There he attends to bis estate and newspaper business for a couple of hours, and remains in bis of¬ fice, as a rule, until after 5 o'clock, not even leaving for luncheon, Lunch is cooked in the office, one part of which is fitted up with perfect cuisine ar¬ rangements. Tbe chef conies from Carlton House Terrace for the purpose. Astor usually lunches alone except when he is joined by his daughter, but be sometimes invites Sir Douglas Straight, the editor of tlie Pall Mall Gazette, or Lord Frederick Hamilton, tbe editor of the Pall Mall Magazine, or the business manager of the papers. After lunch, about 2:30, lie gets the first edition of the Pall Mall Gazette, which he goes over with ids secretary, making criticisms and suggestion. Then he sets to his literary work, and it is believed by his entourage that he has some big book of reminiscences or history on hand, at which he works regularly, consulting a large number of books of reference and occasionally going to the British Museum, where he sees the books in the private readers’ room or consults scholars engaged in special researches. When he is living at Cliveden, on the Thames, which he bought from the Duke of Westminster, he comes to town just the same every day except Oil Saturday and Sunday. He seldom goes out to dinner or entertainments of any kind, and sees no Americans regularly, with the exception of Am¬ bassador Choate and First Secretary Ilenr.y White. Novelties Seen in tbe Shops.

A space of more than 40.000 square yards has been given by the city of Leipsic for the purpose, and the mound which will be surmounted by the monument—it will be an immense earthwork - 250 feet square at the base—will be thrown up in the course of the coming year. The monument will be about 250 feet high, ad the figure of the archangel Michael, which will stand on the east front, surrounded by war furies and genii of peace, will be about twenty five feet high. It is expected that the monument will he finished in time for the centennial clebration In 1913.

The Tahitans are said to be the peo¬ ple most servicable to the traveler. They seem, in fact, to command at all times tlie principal conveniences of life. Half an hour of daylight is sufficient for building a house of tbe stems and leaves of the felii banana, and fire is produced by rubbing sticks. If tbe running water is deeply sunk among stones by working in banana leaves, they bring it to the surface. The chase of eels, which in those dripping mountains become almost amphibious, offers another instance of their Ingenuity. They tear off with their teeth the fibrous bark of “puran” (Hibiscus tili aceus) and a moment after apply it to noosing small fish. If one is sent for fruit, he will usual¬ ly make a basket on the way by plait¬ ing the segments of a coeoanut leaf. A mat will be manufactured with al¬ most equal ease. Clothing is always at hand and a banana leaf‘serves for an umbrella. Tumblers and bottles are supplied by single joints of the bam¬ boo, and casks or buckets by the long stems, and whether you ask for a hatchet, knife, spoon, toothbrush -or washbasin, the guides will never be found at a loss.—San Francifco Chron¬ icle.
