CHANDLER’S MISTAKE. "‘73

no Displayed a Corkscrew Among Ga.
field’s Constituents.

Senato'r Zach Chandler, of Michigan,

was found dead in his room at the

Grand Pacific Hotel, in Chicago, 011

[33:

 

November 2, 1879.; That year was the '

the first time that Charles Foster ran
for Governor in Ohio, and Chandler
made a series of speeches throughout
the State during the campaign. '

*Just a month prior to the day he died
he spoke in the little town of Chardon,
in the northeastern part of the State.
Judge Ed-munds, of Vermont, then a
United States Senator, was announced
to speak with Chandler, but he did not
put in an appearance, so Chandler and
General Garfield—it was in Garfield’s
district—Jaddressed the meeting, which
was a big one.

There was no building in the town
large enough to hold the crowd that
gathered, so a rough platform was

built on the east side of the Court.

House in the public square. In the
course of his speaking Chandler
brought out his jack-knife, opened it
and placed it across his notes on the
table to prevent a. brisk October wind
from blowing the‘lji away.‘

He was followed’ by Garfield, and at
the close of the meeting a crowd of the
country folk called at the hotel to
meet the distinguished guest. Garfield
knew them all, and, introduced them
one by one to Chandler. The Michigan

Senator asked numerous questions

about the farmers, their social condi-
tions, etc. He learned, among other
things, that the people of the county
prided themselves on their unrelenting
antipathy to intemperance. One man
regretted that the Michigan Senator
could not be present some time at one
of their Sunday evening temperance
meetings.

After the crowd had dispersed Chan-
dler turned to Garfield and said:

“Say, Garfield, why didn’t you tell
me something about your constitu-
eats?”

“Didn’t I tell you that they were the
best people you would find in the
country?” Garfield retorted.

“Yes, but you didn’t say anything
about their being such fierce temper-
ance folk.”

“Well, I may have forgotten that,
but you- have found it out for your-
self.”

“Yes, and your forgetfulness has ru-
ined :my reputation.”

“How so '3”

“During all the time I was speaking
my jack-knife, with the corkscrew
opened, was in full sight of the au-di-
ence, and you never said a word. It’s
too late now. I shall never dare look
your constituents in their faces again.”
~Philadelphia Ledger.

They Wouldn’t Sing “A Spanish Hymn.

During the excitement over the ex-"
plosion- of the Maine an incident oc-.

curred at the University of Pennsyl-
vania/which demonstrated the patrio-
tism of the students. At the usual
chapel exercises one morning the open-

ing hymn was given out, and the huge

pipe organ swelled out the prelude.
Usually the six hundred or eight hun-
dred students using 0111‘. the 'hymn with
great fervor, but this morning the first
line 01 two were sung faintly, and then
the organ alone carried on the tune.
The organist gazed around] in amaze-
ment, the dean wore a, puzzled expres-
sion, and members of the faculty pres-
ent were mystified. The second stanza
was but a repetition of the first, and
when it came to the “Amen,” which
every student, whether musically in-
clined or not, always swells pan with
all his vocal might, the samelsilence
prevail-ed. The explanation of it all
was that the name of the hymn was “A
Spanish Hymn,” and the word had
been passed around not to sing, and
they didn’t—Philadelphia Record.

A Story of the Kaflir King.

Once, and only once, is- the colossal
intellect of Barney Barnato known to
have unbent over light literature. As
a rule the great man did not waste his
time in reading. But once when he
was very much worried over finance
and complained ‘that he could not
“forget his work,” Mr. Raymond lent
him “The Story of the Gadsbys” and
got him to read it, and Barney found
forgetfiilness, and thus he spoke unto
his friend:

“Do you know, I put it in my pocket
when I went down to the office, and,
looking at it again, I sat there till I
had finished it. I did what I do not
ever remember to have done before,
and clean forgot a. board meeting.
0— reminded me of the meeting, but
I set to finish.”

But Mr. Raymond could not get him
to read anything else. —Golden Days. .

 

Wants to be up with the Times.
In' Nebraska there is a man aged

I . fifty-two who is going to school with

his younger children. He is not by

any means illiterate, having a fair'

education gained in his youth, but he

says that he desires to be up with the,
times, so has entered school again. It
‘ is a humorous sight to a stranger, but

the teacher and the other small pupils
take it with perfect gravity.

 

Not to the Swift.

“You told me this horse had won
half a dozen matches against some of
the best horses in the country. He
can’t trot a mile in six minutes to save
him.”

“It was in ploughing matches that
he took the prize, sir. ”—Boston Travel-
er. .

 

 

The Old Saw.
De Short—“You notice, perhaps, that
l have sold- my gold watch, and now

carry a silver one.’

Harduppe—"Yes, old man; it’s only
another proof of the old saw, ‘Clrcum-
stances alter cam' you know.”—

The “Antisplre” Methods by Which the
Work of the Miller is Obviated.

The demand for bread among the
poorer classes of Italy, which in many
districts has been quite alarming of
late, has increased the. interest in that
country in any and every method sug«
gested for reducing the cost of' “the
staff of life” to needy consumers. Were
it not that even the hungry to a great
extent demand white bread, the open-

ing of shops for the sale of the new,

“antispire” bread, as it is called, an in-
vention of M. Auguste Desgotte which
does away with the work of the miller,
might be attended by a greater suc-
cess.

The “antispire” bread is made direct-‘
ly from the wheat, and a great saving
in the cost of' manufacture is credited
to it. After the wheat has been thor-
oughly sifted and cleaned it is subject-
ed to a bath in tepid water for several
hours. When it has thus been soaked
it is poured into a machine which re-
duces .it to a. homogeneous paste. This
machine is'composed of a double line
of thin spirals working in opposite di-
rections. By these spirals the soften-'
ed wheat seeds are well kneaded. At
the end of thespirals is a double cyl-
inder which receives the paste and
makes it still more-compact and ready
for shaping into loaves and baking.

The quality of the bread made by the
new process is variously estimated. Ex-
cellent judges and unprejudiced prac-
tical bakers admit its excellence, and
say- t-hat any taste can be suited by hav-
ing due regard to~ the leavening, man-
ipulation and treatment in the oven.
Italian experts who have investigated
the matter express themselves favora-
bly upon its digestive properties and
pronounce it most nourishing: In col-
or the “antispire” bread is very brown;
its odor is agreeable and taste quite
palatable. A cardinal virtue claimed
for it is that it never gets mouldy and
will remain “fresh” for days—New
York Herald. - ‘ .-

HOW WILD ANIMALS DEE.

[longer Gets Them Even it They Escape
the White Man’s Gun. ,

What becomes of all the dc ad birds
and animals? 4

Some of them, hastened in their ex-
its by villainous saltpetre, go into
cooking pots or yield up their blood:
dabbled feathers for woman’s adorn-
ment. But how about those who die
anatural death?

It is the rarest thing to find the bod-
iesof ' ild animals, except such as
have plainly died in conflict or by ac-'
cident.

It is probable that animals almost
universally hide themselves when they
feel the pangs of approaching death.
Their chief foe is hunger, coupled with
old age. Distemper kills foxes and
wolves as well as domestic dogs and
cats. Chills and .heartdisease count
animal as .well as human victims. , .Old.
animals die of indigestion, especially.
.When their teeth become too poor to"
permit of chewing their food. .‘j

Tumors, diphtheria and consump:
tion are frequent animal complaints,
and anthrax, influenza, glanders and
cholera claim their share. Rabies
comes in epidemics among wild ani-__
mals as well as tame ones. It was so
common among foxes in 1830 to 1839
in France. and Switzerland that fox
hunts were organized for the protection
of domestic animals. .

All this, however, doesn’t explain
What becomes of the dead animals.
Perhaps 'that'will cease to be a mystery
when we find out where all the pins

THE FIRST ORGAN GRINDER.

The Organ Be Carried Was Provided For.
in His Will.

When barrel organs, once the uSual
acco-mpain‘ment of the magic lantern,
came into use, a native of the Province
of Tende was one of the. first who trav-Z
eled about Europe with this instru-
ment.

In his peregrinations- he collected
money enough to enable him to pur-
chase from the King of Sardinia the ti-
tle of Count of the country where he
was born—for which, probably, in a
time of war, he did not pay above 1,000
guineas. '

With the remainder of his money he
purchased an estate suit-able to his rank
and settled himself peaceably for the
remainder ofr his days in his man-’
sion. ,

In the entrance hall of his. dwelling
he hung up his magic lantern and his
organ facing the door, there to be care:
fully preserved till they moldered to
dust; and he ordered by his will that
any one of his descendants who‘should
cause them to be removed should for-
feit his inheritance, and his patrimony
revert to the next heir, or, in failure of
1 successor, to the hospital .of Tende.

Only a few years ago the organ and
lantern were still to be seen carefully,
preserved.-~Cincinnati Enquirer. ‘

 

The Kansas Jack Rabbit Ahead.“. 'i
An Emporia man heard a disturs
bance in the night, and on getting up
to see what was the matter found his
bulldog engaged in a desperate struggle
with a jack rabbit. Concluding that
it was dangerous to interfere, he went
back into the house and shut the door}
In a short time the outside struggle
ceased, and looking up,- he was sur-'
prised to see a jack rabbit looking in
over the transom of the front door.“
[11 the morning he went out and fourid
the bulldog dead in the front yard,
with marks of rabbit teeth. all over
his person, bearing mute testimony to
his brave and desperate struggle. —Em-

"BREAD MADE. DIRECT FROM WHEM '

 

Fashion- in Headgear.
Alluslon has already been made to
1e great number of shapes in which

- raw bonnets and hats have appeared,

the hats as usual outrivalling the bon-
nets in the many, caprices of contour
and style in which they are shown.
There is as much latitude ,exhibited in
the varied head-coverings as is evinced
in the construction ofcostumes. Both
bonnets and hats run through small,
medium, and large sizes, the bonnets
developing through numerous modifi-
cations of the French toque, the prin-
cesse and capote shapes, into the more
pretentious Victorian styles which re-
appear this season. In round hats, the
models begin with the pretty turbans
and English walking hats. and grade
up to the yery familiar small cart-
wheel dimensions, these monstrosities
in straw being made up of numerous
dents and smashed-in angles and ec-

«centric curves—an eccentricity which

is noticeable both in crown and brim,

‘with a continuation of the winter’s

wild freaks in garniture in keeping
with the shape of the hat. The preva-
lence of very rough openwork straws
has brought them into the list of head-
wear desirable for travelling uses, yet
they are really not commendable, on
account of their liability to catch and
retain the dust much more than a plain
[smooth braid. The most serViceable
and stylish looking travelling hats are
of English. Dunstable straw or Milan
braid, with a simple torsade of some
appropriate fabric, around the crown,
with loop: of the same, and a few
quill feathers atone side. In spite of
the many fancies that are put forth
among the models for such uses, the
fact still remains that flowers, laces, or
dressy garnitures of any description
are wholly out of place upon a travel-
ling hat.

 

Lovely Summer ~§tylem
The show-rooms of fashionable city

'modistes are now brilliant with color

and filled with airy garments that are
like the breath of early June; and a
wonderful and beautiful effect is pro-
duced by the grouping together of love-
ly evening toilets, bridal gowns, gradu-
ating dresses, debutantes, and dow-
agers’ trained robes, tea gowns, travel-
ling, golf, cycling, and yachting suits,
beach costumes, costumes to walkin,
to talk in, and costumes "in which‘to
do nothingat all.” Some of the brides-
maids’ gowns and the newest ' tea
gowns again copy historical styles.
They have Marie An oinette fischus,
Victorian bodices, early English waists,
Stuart Collars; immense Elizabethan
neck frills, flounc'ed skirts; and some
gowns modelled after still earlier fash-
ions,.open'dow11 the front of the skirt
over petticpats of- brocade or richly
striped-satin, the gown itself being
made of some rich lustrious variety of
plain silk or satin, with numberless
picturesque additions to the bodice and
sleeves.

' Trades Followed ~by Animals.

Bees are geometricians. The cells
are so constructed as, with the least
quantity of material, to have the
largest spaces and the leastpossible
loss of interstice. The mole is a me-
teorologist. The torpedo, the ray, and
the electric eel are electricians. The
nautilus is a navigator; he raises and
lowers his sails, and casts and weighs
anchor, and performs other nautical
acts.

Whole tribes of 1:11 ds are musicians.

Caterpillars are silk-spinners. The
squirrel is a ferryman; with achip or
piece of bark for a boat, and his tail
for a sail, he crosses‘the stream.

The beaver-is an architect, builder,
and woodcutter; he cuts down trees
and erects houses and dams. The mar-
mot is a civil engineer; he not only
builds houses, but constructs aqueducta
and drains to keep them dry.

The white ants maintain a. regular
army of soldiers.

Sauce ‘Tartnr.

A sauce tartar that is made with but-
ter, which a cooking-school teacher
gives to her classes, is a. modification
of the usual method of preparing this

‘garnish. A piece of butter the size of

a small hen’s egg is rubbed smooth and
seasoned with‘salt,’ Cayenne, a little
dry mustard, and a considerable pinch
of sugar. To this is added the yolk of
an egg, the whole beaten smooth. A
little lemon-juice then cuts the thick-
ness, and a further tart flavor is sea
cured by adding a tablespoonful 01
mixed capers and cucumber pickles,
chopped together.

Slave Mart-in Finland.
A'regular slave mart still exists in
many country districts of Finland.
Once a year such paupers, lunatics, and
aged people of each parish as cannot
support themselves are put up at pub-
lic auction, and consignedto those
families or farmers who will board
them at the lowest price offered by the
parish authorities. The helpless crea-
tures are made to work as much as
possible by their owners, who.have the

right to chastise them. .

Chocolate Cream. ,

Boil one pint of milk and add to it
one ounce of grated chocolate. Soak
rather over half an ounce of gelatine
in a little milk, and when the chocolate
boils mix all together and stir till the
gelatlne is quite dissolved. Let the mix-
ture cool, add two well-beaten yolks
of eggs. Stir occasionally till all thick-
ens, pour into a wetted mould and
stand till cold. Turn out your mould
to serve ‘and pour a custard round.

The Only Woman Admiral.

The Queen of, Greece is the only
woman admiral in the world.
holds this rank in the Russian Navy,
an honorary appointment mferred
upon her by the late Czar, because her
father held the rank of High Admiral,

 

.It is a curious circumstance that
some very important inventions have
been discovered by lunatics.
