' It is told that the locomotive whistle was invented because of the destruc- tion of a load of eggs. ~When- locomo- tives were first built the country roads were for the most part crossed [at grade and the engine 'driver had no way of giving warning of his approach except by a tin horn. One day in 1833 a farmer of Thornton, England, was crossing the railroad track on one of the country roads with a great load of eggs and butter. Just as he came out upon _ the track a train approached. The engine man blew his horn lustily, but the farmer did not hear it. Eighty dozen eggs and fifty pounds of butter ' were smashed into an indistinguish- ' able mass and mingled with the kin- dling wood to which the wagon was re- duced. The railway company had to pay the farmer the value of his buttei, eggs, his horse and his wagon. It was considered a very serious matter, and straightway a director of the company Ashlen Baxter by name, went to Al- ton Grange, where George Stephenson lived, to see if he could not invent something that would give warning more likely to be heard. Stephenson went to work and the next day had a contrivance which, when attached to the engine boiler and the steam turned on. gave out a. shrill, discordant soun1l.—- ’ 1rning Advertiser. He Came for the Third Chicken. Harry had just begun to go to school, and was very proud of what he had learned. One day he thought he would show his father how much he knew, and asked him at dinner, “Papa, how many chickens are there on that dish?” “Two, my boy,” said papa. “I thought you knew how to count?” "You’re wrong.” said Harry, “there are three. That’s one, that’s two, and two and one make three.” “Very well,” said his father;- “your mother may have one for her dinner, I’ll take the other, and you can have the third.” . Mr. Jerry T.

Barling, who is identified with the salmon industry of Alaska as the owner of an extensive canning plant at Karluk, Kadiak Island, is among the arrivals at the Palace Hotel Mr. Bailing brought down with him from from Karluk some of the largest bear skins ever seen in San Francisco. One‘ of them, the skin of an enormous griz- zly, measuring twelve feet from tip to tip, and together with several other peltry of almbst equal size, it forms an interesting exhibit such as is not"‘to be seen every day in San Francisco. Mr. Barling has a. marvellous tale to re- late of a native’s way of killing a bear. It is this: “There are many grizzlies on Ka- diak Island.” said he, “as well as a large. number of cinnamon bears. I was cruising around in a launch in an unfrequented cove one day when I spied two immense grizzlies not far up the creek. They were so large that I did not care to go after them, but when I got back to Karluk I commu- nicated the fact to an Indian who en- joyed the reputation of being one of the best bear hunters in that section. ‘All right,’ he said. ‘Well, you had bet- ter hurry up,’ I told him, ‘because those bears won’t stay there very long.’ I 1sk mammy,’ was his brief 1ej1 1111012 He was 52 years old, but he had to ask his mother. She was the eldest woman in the village, and her opinion carried a great deal of Weight. "‘I'retty soon he started cross coun- try after the bears. Some of the na- tives of Kadiak use firearms on their hunting expeditions. This fellow sim- ply armed himself with a long spear. He greased his head and got to wind- wardof the animals. Pretty soon he heard a tramping in the brush, and knew that the prey was approaching. He .dug a hole in the ground, planted one end of the spear firmly, with the point in the direction of the bear, and then crouched down. The bear came along and licked the head of the In- dian. With a. swift and dexterous movement the native cut a gash in the bear’s 'neck with the sharp spear point. The angered animal drew back a few yards and made a rush. He im- paled himself on the spear and all was over.”—San Francisco Chronicle. The Cannibal Chief. ‘ Among the loyal Maori chiefs in- vited to meet the Duke of Edinburgh, when he was in New Zealand, was one of the original signers of the treaty of ‘Vaitangi, in 1840—11. man who had ever since been a firm friend of the English. The author of Seventy Years in the Victorian Era says that after the reception, an English bishop asked the Governor, “Do you ‘know the an- tecedents of that old heathen, sir?” “No, my dear Bishop,” was the reply; “but I do know that he brought five hundred of his Clansmen into the field to fight for the Queen. So I invited him to meet the Queen’s son.” “IVell,” said the Bishop, “when I arrived in New Zealand, that chief came to me and said he wished to be baptized. I knew he had two wives, so I told him he must first persuade one of them to return to her family. He said he feared it would be diliicult, but he would see what could be done. In two months he returned. ‘Now, missionary,’ he ex- claimed, ‘you may baptize me, for I have only one wife!’ ‘And what have you done with our dear sister, your other wife?’ I asked. He smacked his lips. ‘I have eaten her!’ said he.” He \Von the Bet. A sporting gentleman, who had the reputation of being a very bad shot, in- vited s01ne of his friends to dine with him. Before dinner he sh0wed them a target painted 011 a barn—door, with a bullet right in the bull’s eye. This he claimed to have shot at one thousand yards distance. As nobody believed him, he offered to bet the price of an oyster supper on it. on one of his guests accepting the wager, he pro- duced twO witnesses whose veracity could not be doubted to testify to the truth of his assertion. Since they both stated that he had done what he claimed, he won the bet. During din- ner the loser of ‘the wager inquired how the 110st had managed to make such an excellent shot. The host- an- swered, “Well, I fired at'the door from a distance of one thousand yards, and then I painted the target round the bul- let-hole. To Clean Broadcloth.
