A SOCIETY 'ITEM.
An Object Lesson in the Ethics of No-
menclatnre.
It was at. tho Emerald,ball, and the.
young society} reporter sharpened her
wits and her pencils, that full and satis—
factory description of each costume
might be presented. Surrounding her
were those most desirous of seeing
their names and gowns in print, and
in the crowd stood a shop girl, gowncd
in flimsy pink cheesecloth of'1r.describ—
able out.
When her turn came for inspection,
says the New York Times, it was with
a hopeless.eye that the reporter sur-
veyed the toilet. The artful question,
however, was asked as usual:
“And your name and gown?”
“Miss Matilda Jenkins, attired in
pink crepon and diamonds,” was the
studied and prompt reply.
“Pink crepon,” wrote the newspaper
woman, delighted with the new and
elegant name for cheesecloth, but her
pencil refused to add “and diamonds”
until her quick eyes" had discovered on
the girl’s collar a tiny rhinestone as
big as a pinhcad. Then “and dia-
monds” went. down in the notebook as
proudly as if announcing tiaras and
‘ stomachers of purest luster.
The next day all the girls behind
a notion counter exclaimed enviously
over a well-worn newspaper clipping.
which read: “Miss Matilda Jenkins.
attired in pink crepon and diamonds,"
and when the society reporter glanced
over the printed words she felt never
a pang as to the accuracy of the in-
formation she had given to the public.
THEIR TURN TO RUN.
The Experience of Two Bear Hunters in
the Mountains of Oregon.
A bear hunt which terminated in
a manner at once d isappointing and sur-
prising, is described by the. Portland
Oregonian. It occurred in the. moun-
tains of Oregon, whither two gentle-
men had betakcn themselves for a.
vacation trip.
Several days were spent in trout fish-
ing. Then one of the men expressed
a. strong desire for a day’s shooting
for larger game. They set out the
next morning bright and early, and
after hours of fruit-less tramping were
about returning to camp, when sud-
denly they saw straight before them a
brown bear sitting on his haunches,
under a bluebeiiy but h, and gorginrr
himself 11 ith the be1 ries.
Both hunters fired, and the bear, with
an ugly gioul, disappeared. The men
hastened after him, l at were unable to
overtake him. For half an hour of
more they followed the trail. Then all
at 011cc they came to a. clearing. In
the clearing was a. cabin, and on the
porch of the cabin sat the brown bear
with one of his forelegs in a. sling!
The hunters were greatly taken
aback, as may well be supposed, but
were still more surprised when they
saw a man hastening toward them with
a gun. They turned and ran, the man
after them. They got away in safety,
and learned afterward that the bear
was a. family pet, the owner of which
was naturally angry at finding it ill-
treated.”
A LAND WITHOUT ANIMALS.
Strangers in Japan Are Forcibly Struck
with This Lack.
Japan is a. land without the domes-
tic animals.
strikes the stranger so forcibly in look—
ing upon Japanese landscapes. There
are no cows—the Japanese neither
drink milk nor eat meat. There are
and these are import-
ed mainly for the use of the foreign-
crs. The fruit cars in the city streets
are pulled and pushed. by coolies, and
the pleasure carriages are drawn by
men. There are but few dogs, and
these are neither used for watch dogs,
beasts of burden nor in hunting, except
by foreigners.
There are no sheep in Japan, and wool
is not used in clothing, silk and cotton
being the staples. There are no pigs—
pork is an unknown article of diet, and
lard is not. used in cooking. There are
no goats or mules or donkeys. Wild
animals there are, however, and, in par-
ticular. bears of enormous size. One
of these, seen stuffed in a museum, is
described as “big as an ox.” Beside an—
other stuffed museum bear is pre-
served in alcohol the mangled body of
a child the bear had eaten just before
being killed.
W'ar, of course, is acquainting the
Japanese with the use of animals. The
army has cavalry horses and others to
drag the field guns. The empress, also,
in obvious imitation of European roy-
alties, is an expert horsewoman, and
saddle horses are kept. for her use.
IN THE FAR WEST.
How Freighters Kept the Whisky’s Weight
and Quality Unimpaired.
A. man at one of the hotels the other
night told an interesting story of how
the freighters of the far west used to
supply themselves with whisky, says
the Louisv1lle Courier-Journal. He
said that some years ago when all
freight was hauled in wagons, he hap-
pened to make a trip of several hun-
dred miles with a. train of wagons car—
rying'merchandise to remote stations.
Nearly every wagon contained one or
more barrels of whisky.
“The first night out I noticed,” said
he, “great activity around the whisky
barrels. The wagons each had a
hatchet and a gimlet. They would
knock up a. hoop, bore a hole, draw all
the whisky they, wanted, then put
about as much fine gravel in the barrel.
as they had drawn out whisky, drive a
plug in the hole and put the hoop back
in place. V
“I learned afterward that the bar-
rels were weighed and the, 'whislgy
tested before it was turned over to the
freigliters. and that when it arrived at
its destination it was again weighed
and tested. The gravel supplied the
weight and biilk and the quantity re-
mained the same, and this is why it
was used instead of water to supply the
place of what had been taken out.”

PVRODIGAL WITH HIS WEALTH.
Russian Spendthrift Who Squanders Mll-
lionsEvery Year.
Le Petit Sucricr has found a succes-
sor in St. Pctersburg; He is Max 11.,
his age is 22. his pocket money 2,000.-
OOO rubles, and the source of his 1'01'-- 1
enue is ancestral trade. The special
form of extravagance which he has
'made popular among the golden youth
who so speedily molt their golden

11 banquet of extremes, says the 1‘ all
Mall Gazette, a gathering of the fine
flow er of the demi-monde and the most
ragged and ravenous beggars who can
beb picked up in the streets of St. Pe-
tersburg. He lately paid 1,000 rubles
to a. well-known gambling establish-
ment for the exclusive use of their so;
Ions on one particular night. He then
sallied out into the streets and returned
with his beggars‘ opera. Then came
tradesmen, b1.': ging the richest-
dishes; musicians waiters, singers,
the bands of Comus and a jury of 1:)
fair frailties, who were to decide what
reveler had been the wildest and wit-
tiest in the evening’s rev cl. The men
dicants received gold and the ladies
diamonds, and the Christmas tree was
plundered. of its pearl and. ruby blos-
soms. The beggars and nymphs
hailed Max II. as one of the wonders of
the world, applauded with both hands
and showed palms on his returning
path. Meanwhile, the'family of this.
notable boyar are taking alarm and
casting about. vainly for a. remedy. A
gold cure has been found for the dis-
ease of drink, but who will give a cure
for the disease of gold?
ABOUT SPONGES.
Facts Relating to Color, Size and Shape
and How They Grow. .
The color, size and shape of the
sponges are as varied as their distri-
bution; violets, reds, greens are fre-
quent colors, due, perhaps, in some.
cases to mimicry, or protective resem-
blance. In shape and size. says Good
Words, some are flattened, globular
masses of small size, others are great
tree-like growths, several feet. round;
others wide, deep cups, and others lit-
tle lacework tubes of the finest spun
glass. Some are tough and horny, and
live in shallow, and, therefore, rough
water, and need a strong skeletal frame-
work; others are delicate and brittle,
and only flourish in the quiet depths of
the sea. The horny sponge, as the
sponges of commerce are called, from
their tough, horny skeleton, which we
know so well flourish in the greatest
abundance in water from 30 to 4.0
fathoms in depth.
The delicate silicious sponges, how—
ever, which would be utterly smashed
to pieces in this rough water, are only»
found far below this. Along the coa sis
of Portugal and Brazil beautiful speci-
mens were found by the Challenger,
flourishing in great abundance at the
depth of 1,00 fathoms, and from that
down to 2,000 fathoms, or between two
and three miles beneath tho sea level.
they were found lying upon or em-
bedded in the-soft mud which covers the
bottom of the sea. The greatest num-
ber 01’ sponges, however, grow in water
from 500 to 1,000 fathoms in depth.
MODERN NAVAL GUNS.
Their Power Well Illustrated the Reac—
tion of One of Them.
Some time ago the English govern-
ment. experimented with a 13—inch
gun on a ship of the Royal Sover-
eign class. At the first firing of the
gun the entire upper deck was lifted
fromIits position and sprung along its
entire center, so great was the shock.
The United States battleship Indiana
has been specially equipped to provide
against any such disaster and her
decks have been constructed in such a.
manner that naval experts agree that
no such damage can befall her when
the 13-inch guns send out their flaming
message.
Naval experts are agreed, however,
says the Philadelphia Times,
when she is in action and the four 13-
inch guns are performing their deadly
work the explosions will shatter every
piece of woodwork and glass in every
portion of the vessel. That is expected
and prepared for, and for that reason
the battleship Indiana is composed al-
most entirely of iron and steel. She
has been aptly described as an enor-
mous floating steel fort with a. ship
built around it for purposes of naviga-
tJOn. Fully one-half of her could be
shot away and she would still float and
retain her unequaled fighting power.
These facts and figures should'bring'
us to a realization of what a serious
thing war is in these modern times.
Taught by the Same Master.
A professor was waiting for a train
— at. a. railway station, and, having noth-
ing better to take up his mind, began
chafling a half-witted fellow who did
odd jobs about the place. “I say,
Jamy,” said the professor, in a tone
intended to reach the cars of the by-
standers, “were you ever at college?"
“No, sir,” answered Jamy, “but I’ve
been at school.” “Indeed,” said the
witty professor. “And who had the
honor to be your schoolmaster?”
“Maister Black.” “Why,” said the Wit,
“he was my schoolmaster, too!” “Do
tell me!” exclaimed Jamy. “Man,
who’d ’a’ thought old Black could have
turned out two like us?”
Highest Taxed Country.
, Roumania is the highest taxed coun-
try in the world. Every bottle of for-
eign wine has to pay a shilling duty.
A case of whisky went from the army
and navy stores the other day. The
transport tax stamps and other duties
amounted to more than the price of the
whisky. There is a tax oven on female
servants.
There . are now nearly 11,000,000
Roman Catholics in Russia, about one
in ten of the whole population. In the
former kingdom of Poland they form
three-quarters of the population. St.

15, 000 Catholics.
