Eatltih Judges' Black Otp. There Is one particular i*rt of the drest, belonging to the order of the coif --the black cap--which*tb® judges In Bngland always put over their wigs when passing sentence of death. Little is known concerning this black cap, and many mistakes have been made about It. Sergeant Pulling, In his work, "The Order of the Coif," says: "The black cap, or sentence cap, of the judges and sergeants is certainly'not the coif, as Lord Campbell repeatedly states. It Is, on the contrary, the cov­ ering expressly assigned to veil the coif on the only occasion when the coif is required to be hidden^ By the ancient privileges of the sergeants the coif was not to be taken off, even In the royal presence. The chief insignia of the order was to be so displayed when sit­ ting on the bench or pleading at the bar, but this rule seems always to have been departed from in passing sentence of death. "The head of the administrator of justice was then covered, as a token of sorrow, by the black sentence cap. This cornered cap, black caip, or sen­ tence cap, as it is sometimes termed, is a pfece of limp black cloth, which is put on top of the wig. The cap is rarely put on except when a prisoner has been convicted of murder, and then the Judge places the cap on the top of his wig and passes sentence of death." When the Judges sit in the criminal courts and when attending church in state, they always carry the black cap in their hands as a part of their regular judicial attire. The black cap is also worn by the Judges on the day when the new Lord Mayor goes in state to the royal courts of justice to. be sworn An.--Gentleman's Magazine.

The best is the cheapest, and the best is always best.

Shooting Bullets Into Snow. Some experiments were made recent­ ly In France on the penetrative power of bullets through, snow. The results were astonishing. The Lebel rifle was used, and at a distance of 160 feet the bullet penetrated only five feet into the Snow target. A bullet from a Lebel rifle has been known, it is said, to go throngh a tree of three and a half feet In diameter. That it should only penetrate eighteen inches farther into such soft stuff as snow seems altogeth­ er startling. The explanation suggest­ ed by the experimentalists is that the rotating bullet picks up particles of snow as It goes in and so gets "balled, or blocked up. Worth Try Inn, A fanner recently wrote his name and postoffice address on a postal card and addressed it simply to "DEERING, CHICAGO." By return mail he received from the Deering Harvester Company a catalogue with over 100 fine half-tone illustrations, containing a picture of the largest factory in America, a "twine booklet" on the subject of binder twine, a copy of the Deering Farm Journal, and a personal letter--all for a postal card Try it. kept His Promise. Some minstrels recently started on a tour, and advertised in a town to give a performance for the "benefit of the poor. Tickets reduced to 25 cents." The hall was crowded, and the next morning a committee for the poor call­ ed .upon the treasurer of the concern for the amount the said benefit had net­ ted. The treasurer expressed astonish­ ment at the demand. "I thought," said the chairman of the committee, "you advertised this concert for the benefit of the poor!" "Well," replied, the treasurer, "didn't we reduce the tickets to twenty-five cents so that the poor could all come?" Vast Extent of Canada.

THE WHOLE SYSTEM May Become Invaded by Catarrfc-- General Lewis' Ca«e.M«§ AaiboiM by Filipinos at Baler, la Isle of La son--Gunboat Had Gone to tlis Rescue of Spanish Prisoners-- AdaMnl Cables Brief Details. The dispatch from Admiral Dewey re­ ceived at the Navy Department in Wash­ ington, reporting the ambuscade of Lieut. Gilmore and his party, and stating that their fate was unknown, caused great con­ cern at the department. Because of the cruelty known to be used by the Filipinos toward their prisoners it will be a most grateful surprise to naval officers to learn that the heads of Gilmore and the others have not been cut off and their bodies mu­ tilated. Instructions were sent to Admiral Dewey to use every effort to ascertain if the party is still alive, and if so, to secure their release, if possible, either by ransom or in exchange for some insurgents held by the American forces. Gen. Otis and Admiral Dewey have about 1,600 Filipino prisoners in their possession. Aguinaldo's well-known reputation for feathering his own nest leads to the belief, however, that he will prefer to listen to overtures for the purchase of the freedom of the Amer­ icans. According to Admiral Dewey's dispatch the warship's cutter, with fifteen men aboard, was sent from the Yorktown at night to make soundings near Baler, where a small Spanish garrison had been resisting the insurgents for nearly a year. The object was to ascertain how close to the shore the gunboats sent by Admiral Dewey to rescue the Spaniards could go. The cutter had gone for some time when suddenly three volleys, fired in rapid suc­ cession, were heard aboard the Yorktown. A curious feature of the affair is that no reply to the shooting was made by those aboard the cutter, which had a machine gun in her bow. This leads to the impres­ sion that Lieut. Gilmore and his men were ambushed and perhaps all slaugh­ tered before they could raise, a hand in their defense. Dewey's dispatch reads as follows: "The Yorktown visited Balor, Luzon, east coast of Luzon, P. I., April 12, for the purpose of rescuing and bringing away the Spanish forces, consisting of eighty soldiers, thnee officers and two priests, who were surrounded by 400 insurgents, some of the insurgents armed with Hau­ ler rifles, as reported by natives. Lieut. J. C. Gilmore, while making an examina­ tion of the mouth of the river in an arm­ ed boat, was ambuscaded, fired upon and captured. Fate unknown, as insurgents refused to communicate afterward. "DEWEY." A MOTHER'S HOPE. Dse For Over Thirty Years CASTORIA EXACT OOFT or viAirei VMS etmui* MWMT, NM vork on* Still Thinks of Finding Her Boy, Who Was Stolen Fifteen Tears Ago. The finding of Gerald Lapiner, the kid­ naped Chicago boy, has kindled anew the fires of hope in the breast of Mrs. Lizziq Dickinson of Houghton, Mich. Mrs. Dicki inson believes that she may yet find her boy, now grown to manhood, who was stolen fifteen years ago. In 1884 the Dickinsons were living at Florence, Wis., where Mr. Dickinson was a mining engineer and superintendent of the mines. One day the boy, Willie, was stolen. He was then 6 years old. The theory was advanced first that the boy had been kidnaped in a spirit of revenge by some of the miners who were identified with a strike. This theory was abandon ed later, a search having been made in the meantime of all the abandoned shafts in the vicinity in which the boy might have fallen. Almost a year passed before the ai'd of a detective was called, and then a thorough and organized search for the little fellow was made. The ltttle fortune owned by the parent? was-spent in the hunt for the boy by the Pinkerton detectives. Clews were chased from ooe end to the other of the United States. Several times it was believed that success was at hand. One clew, whicb was undoubtedly a true one, led the detec­ tives into the South and into a settlement of negroes, where the boy had been se­ creted for several months. . Unmistaka­ ble traces of the Dickinson boy were found among these negroes, bis playmates having learned the same prayers he re­ cited when at home and also having gain­ ed a true description of his home in Wis­ consin. Bat the boy could not be foand. In the years that have elapsed the moth­ er has never wliolly abandoned hope. The husband is dead, and the broken-hearted mother has traveled ali over the United States. She has seen 153 boys ^about whom there was mystery, pointing to an abduction, and has been the agency of re­ storing thirteen stolen boys to their par­ ents. If living WTillie is now 21 years old.

"Not the General's Cow.** "Tommy Atkins"--the slang name of the British private--1# not noted for his politeness, but for his obedience to orders. Years ago In a seaport town in En­ gland a general and an admiral were neighbors. The general's house was fronted by a grass-plot, on which he pastured a cow. One day his wife com­ plained to him that the supply of milk was falling short. The sentinel accounted for the defi­ ciency--the public trod down the pas­ ture. Thereupon the general gave or­ ders that no human or other animal ex­ cept his cow should be allowed on the grass-plot. He added that If this rule was infringed the sentinel should be flogged. Soon after, the admiral's wife, In haste to keep an engagement, took a short cut over the plot, disregarding the sentinel's order to keep off the grass. "Common soldier, don't you know who I am?" ejaculated the offended lady. _ "All I know is that you're not the general's cow." What Do the Children Drink? Don't give them tea or coffee.

The others prepared for the worst, except one elderly man, who pulled down his waistcoat with an unneces­ sary show of determination. "The title of this little effort," the poet went on, drawing a roll from an unsuspected pocket, Is The Raindrops on the Roof.'" . "Well, of course it aaes," exclaimed the elderly man. "Where would you expect it to drop? When the rain drops on any well-regulated house, it natur­ ally chooses the roof. Perhaps you ex­ pect people to take the roof off when It rains? Or you think that we imagine that It drops on the foundation, or In the umbrella-stand?
