Mr. Wittich’s horse figured in the first one. While standing in front of Whitehead uHuether’s store it suddenly bolted and went down the street like a. rock- et. Everybody who saw it got ex- cited except the owner. After ad- miring the animals speed for a minute or two he proceeded very leisurely to follow it, remarking that getting into a splutter wouldn’t make the horse step The animal was finally captur- ed without any particular harm having been done. Two ladies figured in the next runawav. These were Miss Mary Harrison and Miss Jennie Hudson. The horse becoming frightened at a reaping machine. ran all .he way from Adamson’s tile yards to its own stable. All went well until the stable was reached. but there a. wheel was smashed on passing through the door. The young ladies escaped without injury, but got a pretty bad fright.-â€"Walk- etton Telescope. I need and all I want, but it goes against the grain to be compelled to go to work two weeks sooner than the town teachers.” For our own part we have never been able to see any good reason why town schools should have longer holidays than the rural schools, and if the former class of schools were to open acouple of weeks sooner it would be a great re- lief to many parents.â€"Walkerton Telescope. The public schools in the rural dis- tricts re opened on Monday of this week. In towns and incorporated Villages they have two weeks longer. The teachers in the country think this is unfair. They can see no good reason why the school law should make fish of one and flesh of another. As one teacher remarked to the Tele- scope.-â€"" I have had all the holidays into an insurance fund. In case he is disabled he is permitted to draw a certain amount out of this fund for a period not exceeding 26 weeks. In case of death. his heirs draw the whole amount for which his life was insured. So far. the fund is all right, but proper provision does not seem to have been made for the man who is dismissed from his office or who voluntarily throws it up. A case in point is that of James Dougan, who was dismissed from the section at Dunkeld. He had paid about $400 into the fund, but on applying for a refund in quiting the servnce. he has been informed that if he can produce evidence of complete disability he will be allowed seventeen fiftieths of the amount which he paid in. This. of course. he cannot do, and the chances are that he will get nothing. â€"Walkerton Telescope. at Zion City, near Chicago. For some years past Mr. Leggett had suflered from cancer. His friends at Zion promised him a speedy cure if he would only go there. and go he did. But Dowie could do nothing for him, and he died there just as he would have died here. by slow de- grees.

Mr. Hensm-an, contradicts the story that Rhodes ever used the phrase “he never met a man whom he could not buy." The germ of this notion, Mr. Hensman says, “is to be found in the Daot that One day, many years ago. when discussing his proposed telegraph wire from one end of Africa to the other, somebody asked him how he proposed to carry it across the Soudan. which was then under the domination of 'the Khalifa. ‘Oh, leave it to me,‘ Rhodes answered. ‘I never met the man yet that I could not come to an agreement with, and I shall be able to fix things up with 'the Khaiita when the time comes.’ This is the true ver-' sion of a story that in its distorted form has been so widely circulated.” Yes, the tan eler wou’ld have to' have his stomach pumped out; mo t dist net.- 1y, yes. â€"N.

If he had a mind to write anything to his friend, he directed his needle to every letter that formed the [words which he had occasion stor, making a little pause at the end of every word or sentence to avoid confusion. The zfriend, in the meanwhile, saw his sympathetic needle moving of itself .to every letter which that of his correspondth pointed at.

Apropos the renewal of the Shake- speare-Bacon controversy, an article by Willi-am Sheppard in the “Era" on the making of anagrams is enlight- ening. “A correspondent has asked me,” says Mr. Sheppard, “to furnish him with some good anagrams on the names of famous people. He further informs me that he has spent a good deal of time trying to make an acceptable anagram on the United States, and has failed to do so. With reference to this failure, 1 would remind him that he must not be discouraged. The task he has attempt- ed is an enormous one. United States has just a dozen letters. Now, mat-he- maticians will tell him that a dozen letters will admit of seven thousand and twenty-nine millions (7,029,000,000) of possible transpositions. Old Cam- den has vividly described the vexation of soul undergone by anagrammatists when oft-repeated effort, with an oft- repeated approximation to success, have finally resulted in loss of time and labor: “Some have been seen,’ he says, ‘to bite their pens, scratch their heads, bend their brows, bite their lips, beat their board, their paper, when they were fair for somewhat and caught nothing herein.’ Again, let him comfort himself by the reflection that no one has yet succeeded in making a good English anagram on United States. Anagrammatists have been forced to fall back upon the more fluent and manageable Latin. It has been discovered that the letters forming United States may be transposed into 9 the following Latin words: In te deus stat. “God stands in thee." Inde tutus stat. “Hence thou stand- est safely." i Dentatus est. "He has teeth,” the “he” evidently referring to Uncle Sam. He had come on her dosing In a ham. A“- -_‘ “_‘ For the reverse of the picture, the most notable example is afforded by “Ben Hur." This book had no sale worth mentioning for a year after its publication, and was considered dead. Now it is said to have attained a cir- culation surpassing that of any other American novel, with the single excep- rtlon of “Uncle Tom's Cabin." Someone might prepare a curious and entertaining article on three classes of books in light literature: 1. Those that have had an immediate large sale. and have then gone to ob- livion. 2. Those that ’have had no sale at first, but afterward have met with large success. 3. Those that have been popular at the start and never lost their popularity. The first class would be the largest. Probably the second class would be the smallest. Tiwo that would shine in .the third are the ”Autocrat at the Breakfast Table” and “Reveries of a Bachelor." book. Mrs. Stephens’ “Fashion and Famine" was the best selling novel of its day, and three translations of it were published in France. But to-day it is difficult to find a copy of it any- where except in the lumber-room of a public library. Another example may ‘be seen in the sudden popularity and subsequent deadness of “Robert Els- mere,” the author of which is still writ-mg successful books. Were it not that it might seem like telling tales out of school, something could be said or centain books that have begun life with a phenomenal sale, which has stopped suddenly and unaccountably. as; it at some mysterious signal. son, this and “Uncle Tom's Cabin" would seem to be closely analogous. But while the “Fool's Errand" has al- most, if not quite, gone out of circula- t'ion. .Mrs. Stowe’s great novel, thirty years older, still sells largely in several editions, and at many libraries ls called for more frequently than any other ‘U-â€"- to run the sale into the hundreds of thousands, because they thought it showed how an equal distribution or all property might be brought about. Now it appears to be dead. Helper'a “Impending Crisis” attained a sale of 140,000 copies. forty years ago, which was. as great an achievement as halt a. million ,would be to-day. That was because of its bearing on burning po- litical questions and the tact that it was systematically attacked in Con- gress. Now you can occasionally find a stray copy of it in a second-hand shop. Tourgee’s “Fool’s Errand," twen- ty years later, reached about the same circulation.
