THE NAME MARY
At One Time It Was Practically a
Bar to MBlrliaoay
Mary ns a Christian name was held
In very singular veneration during the
medkival ages and In some parts of
Europe there existed a Huperstitloua
reluctance among men to marrying any
one who chanced to han been so chris
tened or the bride elect was at least re
quired to change this name for some
other of less sanctity
AU Marys were at one time believed
to be invested with extraordinary tOW I
ers in connection with the affairs of
life Rearing the same name as the I
Blessed Virgin they were considered
worth of more than common consid I
eration and their personal inilueuce
over their husbands especially was un
usual hence many iwn sought au
thoritative ordinances forbidding their
wives to be known as Mary Sover
eigns in some cases dreading subjec
tion to their partners showed a mark
ed distaste for Marys
Thus Alfonso IV of Castile when on
r
the point of wedding a Moorish maid
en made It a condition of the mar
riage that at her baptism as a recent
convert to Christianity she should not
take this name In the articles settle
for the union of Ladislas of Poland
with Marie de Severs there was a i
clause which bound this princess to
change her name to Aloysa Casimir
I of Poland who married Mary
daughter of the Duke of Russia re
quired of her n similar sacrifice to pop
ular sentiment Pearsons Weekly
RATS KNEW CAT WAS ABOUT
They Never Saw Pas and Were OB
Another Floor of Hoaae
1 I have observed recently a rather
curious thing with respect to the rela
tionship between cats and rats and It
has led to a rather interesting reflec
tion said a man who takes much in
terest In animal life For awhile the
rats overran my place At night there
I was no such thing as quiet around the
house They would scamper across the
floor bump up ami down the steps and
cut all kinds of capers We secured a
cat and from the very time the cat
I
I I appeared ou the place the rats began
to get scarce
There is nothing curious about this
fact in Itself But to my personal
4 knowledge the rats have never seen the
cat The cat has remained on one floor
and the rats on another There has been
no chasing and no conflict between
them Now I want to know how the
rats know the cat is on the place
The inquiry has caused me to in
dulge the more interesting reflection
How far can a rat detect the presence
of a cat by the sense of smell Evi
dently at considerable distance Else
the rats at my place would not have
known of the cats presence under the
circumstances Im quite sure that
they have never seen the cat But
they know he Is there just the same
and they have been awfully cautious

What is perhaps the shortest street
in the world Is West South Division
street in BuCfalo Furthermore it has
only one side South Division street
proper run crest from Main but the
old surveyors allowed it to cross Main
street and run for thirty feet en the
west side where it Interacts Erie

A NERVOUS WAIT I
Weird Sanitation When the Cavrck I
Became Totally Dark
I
I went to a Fifth avenue church last
Sunday night said a man who is good i
once a week and quite unexpectedly
got n new sensation The church was
brilliantly lighted but something wont
I
wrong with the electrical apparatus
and all of a sudden most of the lights I
went out Midway in the building two
or three bunches of bulbs continued to
shed a sepulchral twilight but the pul
I
pit was shrouded in darkness and nerv
ous members of the congregation began
to fidget
This condition of affairs lasted for
some minutes until the choir had fin
ished an anthem Then the preacher
arose and requested the people to re
main quietly seated for half a minute
In total darkness when the church
would be fully illuminated again With
the words the few remaining lights
went out and for a space darkness like
that of a coal hole prevailed
hIt was the weirdest most uncanny
wait I ever had Every man and wo
man of the Sill or IOuO In that church
was as still as death almost I sup
pose the darkness did not last a minute I
but It seemed to me to be an hour
I
When the lights again leaped out there
was a sigh of relief from every person
In the church I guess they all felt as
queer about it as I didXew York

HORSEHAIR FOR BOWS
Only Black or White From Russia or
German In tied
There Is a vast amount of horsehair
annually used In the United States for
making and repairing violin violon
cello and bass viol bows All of the
hair comes from Germany and Uus
Bia in which countries the tails of
horses are generally allowed to grow
much longer than here The foreign
hair is also coarser in texture and
tougher than that which grows on the
American horse and these qualities
make the imported article more valua
ble than the domestic product
There are only two kinds of horse
hair suitable for making bows and
they are of white and black varieties
The former is used for violin bows
and the latter which is heavier and
stronger Is the best material for mak
ing bows for cello and bass viols be
cause It bites the larger strings better
The Imported hair is put up in hanks
of thirtysix inches long which is five
or six inches longer than the standard
violin lx > w A hank is sufficient for
one violin bow while two hanks are re
quired to hair a cello or bass viol bow
There are about one and a half ounces
of hair in a hank which is worth from
20 to 30 cents according to the quality
of the hair Philadelphia Record
THE ART OF BOXING
Jllatle Combat Were Highly Esteem
ed In Ancient Time
Pugilism the practice of boxing or
fighting with the lists was a manly art
and exercise highly esteemed among
the ancients In those days the hands I
of the pugilist were armed with the
cestus leather thongs loaded with
lead or Iron This form of athletic
sport was at first only permitted to
freemen among the Greeks but grad j
ually It was taken up as a profession
and lost much of Its prestige
As an illustration of Its early use we
find in Virgils fifth JEneld the record
of a match between Dares with nim
ble feet and confident in youth and
I
Entellus the veteran champion strong
and weighty limbed when the com

Pugilism has been a typical English
sport from the days of King Alfred i
but Its golden age as a profession dates
from the accession of the house of
