LENT IN PARIS. '
Marked Contrast Between the Lib-
eirty of the Present Day and
100 Years Ago.
Cardinal Richard allows Parisians
during Lent a regimen that is not- very
.hard. They may have meat every day
rexc ept Wednesdays and Fridays, though
:newer meat and fish at the same repast;
Eielg .; every day, except during the last-
-‘Lhrce days, and. the poor are authorized
ito use fat for their cooking. We are
'here very far from the extraordinary
regimen that once ruled Paris in this
‘matter. - Up to the very momentiof the
revolution it was the prefecture of po-
‘licc that forced a Lenten diet on Paris,
and a. very rigorous one it was. The
Ebutchers’ shops were closed and. the
Epoliee spent their 40 days in nosing
'round the kitchens to seeif they smelled
:meat. It- was thus, as history records,
.Marquis de Bau-firemont had- her kitch—
.-en invaded and all the succulent
viands with which it. was stuffed con-
fiscated for the benefit of the Hotel-
Dieu, which alone had the privilege of
possessing meat in Lent, and this, of
:course, for the purpose of dealing it
.out to the sick. ‘

A MONARCH IN" CKPTIVITY.
Present Habitation of Samory, an
African Pd‘te'ntate, Dethroned
by the French.
Some interesting details in regard to
the present condition of‘Sam ory, the de-
throned African monarch, have lately
been received by the French minister of
the: colonies. Samory is now at Kaye’s,
where, he occupies a camp, which is
guarded by a company of soldiers. ’He
has 15 wives-‘with him, and 16 of his
children and: several servants. He-
spends his time in reading the Koran
and smoking cigarettes.
To out-ward seeming Samory is calm
and contented, but at, heart he. is quite
the reverse. He cannot. rid himself of
the idea that he will be murdered some
day, and whenever one of his guards
happens to fire a shot he is confident
that his last hour has com-e. Hebrood-
ed. so much over his! coming doom that
he quit-e lost. his Senses recently and
made a. determined but. futile effort to
commit. suicide.
Samory still retains with him a few
’ pieces of his barbaric furniture, but
all his gold and silver treasure, which
mainly consists of gold rings andzlsil-
ver plates, has been confiscated by the
Enench government- and is to be sold.
His silver cuirtass, however, a massive
and unique work of art, will'be placed
in the war museum. at Paris. Samcry,
it- is said, has grieved much over the
loss of these treasures, and it- is con-
sidered doubtful whether his captors,
no matter how kindly they may treat
him, will ever be. able to reconcile him
to his lot.
Byron Forgotten by ills Race.
The eclipse which has'come over By-
ron’s: fame is strikingly illustrated by
the report that of the $20,000'needed for.
the proposed monument at Aberdeen
only $52,000 has been subscribed. and
that it is probable that the project will
be abandoned. In all Great Britain
there is no adequate monument to the
poet, who, in the opinion of his con-
temporaries. was the greatest English
bard since Shakespeare.

SMALL—FEED LOTS. .
They Are Valuable Because They
Form a Reservoir for Making
and Saving Manure.
When we. see a farmer Scattering his
fodder and hay out to his stock over
several acres of ground it is quite ev-
ident that he is making a mistake, es-
pecially in the Way of saving manure.
for much of the fertility evaporates
and goes to waste. If the cattle are de-
horned they can be bunched in a. small
lot. and fed in a rack of. boxes. From
their night. quarters: in the stable I
turn during the day four cow-s on a
space measuring 25 by 40 feet, where
they eat. fodder; In an adjoining lot of
about half this area are kept three
yearling cattle which have a straw
shed for shelter. An additional lot
comprising about three-flourths of the
space of cow lot furnishes a place for
horses during the day. Thus the stock
is removed from the graveled track
vle'ading through barn yard to stable
doors. A rick of straw adjoining these
lots‘furnishes a supply of litter which
along with the corn stalks will be
thoroughly rotted by next fall and
ready to be hauled out and scattered
over the young clover. It will amount
to 5'0 wagon loads. Thus it. will be seen
that small feed. lots are'essential in
forming a reservoir for making and
saving manure—the most complete fer-
tilizer, embracing as it does all the ele~
ments of- pl-ant- food—W. ll. Port-er, in

"I‘n married"
The author of “Cannon and Camera,”
J'a- war artist at the front” in Cuba.
says that after the destruction of the
Maine, Father Chadwick, her chaplain.
could be seen going hither and thither,
now on the shore and now afloat, cars
ing for the bodies recovered from the
wreck, and setting down all possible
notes which nfight lead to their iden-
tification. Holzer, his zealous and in-
defatigable assistant, was among the
wounded, and.took his fate like a hero.
When he was dying, in hospital, Capt.
Sigsnbee said a few cheering words to
him, and held out. his hand. “I can't
shake hands with you, Ciapt. Sigsbee,”
said. he. “My hand isnot- in condition,
sir.” “Ah. my lad.” said the captain,
“you took the wrong ship when you
chose the Maine." “No. sir! No. sir!
it was the right. ship. I have nothing

to regret. Soon after he died.

THE LUCKY STONE.
:A New Stonefrom Rue-in Is the Fash-
lonable Favorite at
Present.
‘ .The latest thing in mascots comés
from Russia and resembles a whitecar-
buncle. It combines the translucency
of the moon-stone with the. fire of the
opal, and can be graphically compared
to a bit of petrified sunset. A young
woman from the czar's domains has
charge of an exhibit of native goods
in a fashionable locality. and in the
midst of a, case full of enamels and
icons the lucky stone shines and al-
lures. Further down‘the avenue .an
enterprising Turk sells similar stones
with protestations and assurances of.
all it» will do for its owner. says Har-
ijT’S Bazar.
“The. birth stone is limited in its pow-

The last bit of mysterious po-
tency, like its predecessor, jade, brings
all the heart’s desires—that is, if you
wear it and believe in it constantly.
In olclen'days talismans were consid-
ered infallible; the most precious of
them all described in black letters or
vellum manuscripts with the owner’s
blood and the devil’s signature. was
the small bone or jewel found in the
head of toads and snakes. These rep-
tiles were. symbolical of wisdom, and
their hid-den treasures were sought for
by those who knew or their existence.
Knowledge is power, and the
groping for truth in those dark ages
has led to the present realization that
the “knowing how” and “doing it"
will bring more than all the lucky
stones and Weird mascots in the world
piled together.
Our Soldiers \Vere Good.
The records of the judge advocate of
the United States army show the re-
markable fact that throughout the late
war there was not. asingle case in which
the death penalty was imposed ,upon
any soldier on account of violation of
the military law. This is believed to be
without parallel in history. Crimes
were committed, but they lac'ked-mala
ice or premeditation, and there were no
desertions because of cowardice or
treachery. The soldiers of the United
States deserve well the high estimation
in Which they are held for their moral
and mental as well as their physical
qualities.
