Very few nice girls have lool
mothers.
It takes wit and grit to paddle
your own canoe.
It is hard to feel at home with
people who never make mistakes, j
Fame is nothing more than the
enjoyment of being abused to
your faoe now, and being
praised behind your back 100
years hence.
A western lover says of his
adored one: "Her last words
fell like great rocks into the sea of j
sorrows, and splashed the briny
water into my eyes."
A verse writer says that na-
ture likes to let the best of us
find out from time to time that,
after all, we do not know much.
A soldier who remarked he had
been in seven engagements was
interrupted by a small boy, who
said his sister had been engaged
eleven times.
A cynical brute suggests that
the reason that the women were
not given beards is because it is
almost impossible to talk while
one ia being shaved.
The more people know the leas j
they talk about it.

Geo. C. Ross, special attorney
for the interior department, and
Wm. P. McConnell, United
States Indian inspector of Idaho,
have gone to Tallequah, Indian
Territory, to investigate what is
known as the 8120,000 steal.
This matter involves the reputa-
tion of several prominent citi-
zens of the Cherokee nation, and
also two or more prominent resi-
dents of 8t. Louis, and the out-
come will be watched with great
interest by all the people of tho
Territory, as well as elsewhere.
.'i. Japan disclaims any intention
of attempting to dominate the
.Hawaii Island in the event of the
failure of annexation to tho
United States, and considers it
hardly fair to attempt to draw
Japan into tne annexation mud>
die without just cause; believing
that the annexation question
should be settled solely on its
merits as a national issue, in-
cidentally adding that Japanese
immigration in Hawaii involves
nc other question than that of
demand and supply. As soon as
the demand for Japanese labor
in Hawaii ceases will Japaneso
immigration cease.

Charles T. Hill, writing in St
Nicliolnrion tho"Flro Patrol of New
York," «ayn:
No doubt many people beve no-
ticed, when un nlurm of tire has!
sotiniled iidiI the fire apparatus
arrives, u big rwl wagon dasbiug up,
filled with men wearing red Are
bat* and white rubber coats. They

the regulation firemen, but tlu ir
work is dii'ft'itut, and few people
know tin:t they rejre^cnt a separate
branch of the ftu: uervico and 0110
entirely unconnected with tho reg
ular department.
In Ist w Vv.rk the 0TKi;r,iznti0n is
known iih tl;n"fiie jnttol, 'anil it in
controlltil arid xup.ported by the
iioaid of tile ri'do liters, acting
for the various tire inniiiMUec coin
ponies.
Praetiniily, tlim detrtebinent of
the Bie patrol that lopitiiis at
every alarm (|f hie 111 simply the
representatives of all the li.hi.ranee
companit H [>ut together Tho com
pan if- me n-n':>ed proportionally
for the mpport of this patrol, and
Iho iinmeiisw iiuiount of pn.jierty
saved uiinually by this efficient body
of iiu'ii proves that the money is
well spent This organization is
found iu nearly every large city in
the United States, and is known va-
riously under such nauies as fire
patrol, protective department and
salvage corps, bur their work in
uacli city is praetieuliy tbesiitne.
Among tho greatest dangers U
navigation is collision canned bj
fog, which aiitit's principally fnw
tho fact that while olio ship can
hear by signals that another ship it
near or approaching neither vwsoi
cau determine in what direction tbe
other is moving. To overcome this
•lifliculty % system based on sirens
and fog horns hits been devised
which, while simple, appears to be
effective, lluviug duo regard to the
usual direction of vessels over the
principal ocean courses, a singh
sound has been takon to indicate a
common course, say easterly, while
combinations of two sounds indicat*
all of tho usual points of the com
pais. Thus ;s course due west is in-
dicated by u single horn blow, one
due east by a i.isen Mow. noith and
south by com I bullions, micIi us two
horns and two wbiMilus, and so ou.
