I)?potiam Verana Liberty. Those acting for the state those who represent the public authority do they- claim an Inherent right to rule? Io they exercise arbitrary power? If so. the government is imperial. Are they merely the agents of the people, usiug ouly expressed and delegated powers? If so. the government is a democracy. The former is the European idea, the latter the American idea. Retween these two Ideas there Is an irrepressi ble ccnllict. The germ of one Is des potism, of the other liberty. Converting the Chinaman. Wheu I first met him the Greek archimandrite had been 40 years in Peking, and had never beeu anywhere else except for two caravan journeys to Russia. He was an elderly gentle man, with a smile like P.eujamin Franklin's, and was famed at the Chi nese c apital for keeping the best wines and the lest tobacco. He was a bachelor, and today I recall him when I try to fancy Epicurus In the body. He wore the Chinese pigtail and clothes to match, and people said ho could give Chinese mandarins points on etiquette. He gave me, at hast. many happy hours, for he talked with a frankness and facility rarely united In a Russian, least of all an archimandrite. One i'.:iy, for Instance, I asked him bluntly how many converts he bad made. He answered that he thought he had made one. but he did not wish t !. taken as stating this positively. When I returned to China after an in terval of 21 years, all my Inquiries led been shot from under" him in the fight , of the previous day. aud he had taken possession of an animal that seemed to suit the work. In the battle a few hours later he was riding across a field la which there were numerous stumps. Suddenly the performance opened The guns roared and the air was filled with smoke and noise. Before Colonel Marshall knew what was happening the horse had his four 'feet ou one ot the stumps aud was gayly dancing in a circle. In the mean time the firing was increasing, and the situation was anything but comfortable, but the horse kept on as if he were enjoying it. "It was not until afterward," said Colonel Marshall, "that I found the horse had belonged to a circus and had beeu trained to do this act amid the firing of cannon." LCVS RULES ALL. And I tbat my litnba were oldf And said 1 that my blood a cold And that my kindly Ere was fled AsJ my poor xriilurvj heart wis tkad And that I niitfht not ting of love? How could I to the dearest theme Th4t er wanned a minstrel's dream. So foul, so lalse a recreant prove f How could I name love's very name Nor wake my harp to notes of flame? In peace Love turns the shepherd's reedk In war he mounts the warrior's steed; In halls in cay attire U seen. In hamlets dances on the green. Love rules Om court, the cauip, the Brora, And Hitn beli-w and saints above. For 1ve is heaven, and heaven is love. Sir Walter Scott. Tte Deadliest Poiaona. The discoverer of prusslc acid was Instantly killed by inhaling oue whUf of his own handiwork. Pure prusslc . a'Ul Is never sold or handled. The smell 4f it Is always fatal. It kills not In three minutes or half an hour, but the Instant it outers the lungs as a gas. The mixture or dinarily sold as pruss4c acid is OS parts water to two parts of the drug. Even In this form It is very deadly. A 20 Ier cent mixture of the acid would kill nearly as quickly as if pure. Atropine, though It has no harmful odor, is so deadly that as much of it as would adhere to the end of a moistened forefinger would instantly cause death. Cyanide of potassium has a pleasant smell, which Is not Injurious, but a small quantity swallowed kills at once. Pure ammonia, if Inhaled, would cause death almost as quickly as prus- sic acid. When a carboy of nitric acid is bro ken, some cue has to suffer. It will burn wood, eat through Iron plates and destroy whatever It touches. Such an accideut once happened iu au acid fac tory. Every one rau away, leaving the acid to amuse Itself by setting fire to things. Soon It was seen that the building would be destroyed and Jundreds of people thrown out of work, and four men volunteered to put out tho lire in the acid room. They succeeded and came out all right. Five hours later all were dead. ... Mr. Cam'pbells a.enral Adventure. Robert J. Campbell of New York had an odd and even awkward experience one day which illustrates forcibly a peculiar phase in the practice of law in the metropolis. Returning home late at night, he was attacked and se verely beaten by a drunken stranger. To allay the apprehension of his fam ily Mr. Campbell explained that he had been struck by a street car. He was put to bed aud a maid sent out for liniment and bandages. She re turned with a strange doctor, who proceeded at once to make a miuute examination. Tho examination disclosed that the patient was suffering countless Injuries, most of them lucurable, to his spine. knees, thighs, shoulders and arms. Mr. Campbell, who knew how little ho was hurt, was even alarmed by tho result. and his family were thrown Into al most senseless fear. The following day the doctor returned and announced that he was not a physician at all, but an "accident" lawyer that Is, one who sues corporations for damages result ing from physical Injuries. Ho also brought with him several alleged wit nesses to tho street car accident, all of whom were willing to swear to any thing for a consideration. Saturday Evening Post. The Plaee of the Duel. Mrs. Mlunie Walter .Myers, In her "Romance and Realism of the South ern Gulf Coast," gives an account of one of the last challenges to a duel which occurred in Louisiana. The af fair was between M. Marigny, who be longed to one of the oldest families of Louisiana, and a Mr. Humble, a sturdy es-lIacksmith of Georgia, who "had be come a man of ioliticaI consequence. M. Marigny took offense at some re marks of the Georgian and sent him a challenge. The big ex-blacksmith was uonplused. T know nothing about this dueling business," he said. "I will not light him." "You must," said his friend. "X gentleman can refuse." "I am not a gentleman," replied the honest sou of Georgia, "I am only a blacksmith." "But you will be ruined If you do not tight." urged his friends. "You will fiave the choice of weapons, and you can choose so as to give yourself an equal chance with j-our adversary." The giant asked time In whjch to consider the question and ended by ac cepting. He seut the following reply to M. Marigny: "I accept, aud In the exercise of my privilege. I stipulate that the duel shall take place In Lake Pontchartrain, In six feet of water, sledge hammers to be used as weapons." M. Marigny was about five feet, eight Inches In height, and his adversary was seven feet. ,The conceit of tho Georgian so pleased M. Marigny, who could appreciate a joke as well as per petrate one. that he declared himself satisfied, aud the duel did uot take place." Bine Jar Tree Planter. An old time Arizona woodchoppcr says the blue jays have planted thou sands of the trees now growing all over Arizona. He says these birds have a habit of burying small seed in the ground with their beaks and that they frequent pinyon trees and bury large numbers of the small pine nuts in the ground, mauy cf which sprout and grow. He was walking through the pines with an eastern gentleman a short tini ago when one of these birds flew from a tree to the ground, stuck his bill In the earth and quickly flew away. Wheu told what had happened, the eastern man was skeptical, but the two cut to the spot and with a knife blade itg out a sound pine nut from a depth of about lt inches. Thus It will b? seen that nature has plans of her own for forest perpetuation. Some Queer Definition. Bailey's Universal Etymological Dic tionary, with the subtitle. "An Inter preter of Hard Words." was tirst pub lished In London In 1721. Most of Its definitions are eccentric, and some of them Incredibly so. Here are speci mens plucked at random: Man. A creature endowed with reason. Thunder. A noise known by persons not deaf. Lightning. A meteor. A Rainbow. A meteor of divers colors. Weapon Salve. A sort of ointment which is said to cure a wound by being applied to the sword or other weapon that made the wound. Balloon. A football; also a great ball with which noblemen and princes use to play. Cow. A beast well known. Milk. A food well known. Peacock. A fine bird. Elephant. Tho biggest, strongest and most Intelligent of all four footed beasts. Medlar. A fruit which Is grateful to the stomach, but Is not ripe till It be rotten. Snow. A meteor well known In northerly and southerly climates, es pecially beyond the tropics. Mouth. Part of the body of a living creature. Eye. Aa Instrument of sight. . The ReKlnter of the Voice. I lie register of tho voice is some times confounded with the range. There are two registers to the voice. whatever its quality. These are term ed the register of the chest and the register of the head. The chest notes are given In full. even tones and with the natural voice. The tones may be either open or closed. They are given from the chest and' the ack cf the nose. Head tones come from tho bridge of the nose, and if untrained are apt to develop au unpleasant shrillness. In a trained voice it is impossible to detect where the chest register ends. Xew York World. Paderewakl the Deceiver. This is Bow a Kansas newspaper man criticised Taderewskl: "We heard the Polander Paderewskl play the piano In Convention hall, Kan sas City. The fellow Is deceitfuL He makes you think all the time he Is go ing to play a tune, but he never does, lie flirts all around a tune, but never touches it. His hair looks like a wig. but it Isn't, He deceives you In a hun dred ways. He makes the sweetest sounds you over heard that were not a tune. He has his piano so trained that tho doggone thing will keep right on playing when he Is not touching it. He reaches out slowly and strokes It. drawing back his elbows like a man brushing a girl's hair. You see tho moonlight, and you're there with your girl, but somehow she doesn't love you. You know the sorrow of that, and that's why we don't like Paderewskl. We wouldn't go to hear him again, but we wouldn't take 100 for what we heard at Convention hall." i Planta Tbat Dear Jewel. One of the directors of Kew gardens, lecturing at the London institute on some curiosities of tropical plant life, said that among these were the pearls sian.

Italy, but there are now no traces of It. Count Ugolino della Gherardscha, whom Dante Immortalized, was the head of the Guelphs. and because of his tyran ny and accredited attempts to place his country In bondage he was antag onized and finally conquered by the chief of the Ghibelllnes, who Imprison ed him, with his two sons and two grandsons. In this tower, the slow method of starvation being employed as the manner of their death. The door of the tower was locked and the keys thrown Into the Arno. Mnateal Flab.
