FA HUNT FOR t :: AN EXPLOSIVE } , HH? t ? i ? . 0 I 0 ??????? I 0 ? O ? ? ? ? I had breakfasted with the colo nel at his club, one of those dreary, Iorgo establishments which remind vnu of an overcrowded cemetery Jvhcre thc owners of the land get rich on their dividends. Outside it ros rainy, damp and misty. Inside tho members were regarding each other with disdain and calculating what effect the humidity of the at mosphere would have on tho var-* nish of their patent leather bbota. "Suppose wo get,out of this/' said the colonel briefly as he regarded the street from the broad club win dow. ?Where to ?" said L "Paris," ho said laconically. "Done," said I. And then the bflq was ordered to bc packed and the journey began. We left Waterloo station and we were trying, like, old sailors, to transform a railroad compartment into a comfortable smoking divan. It was then I first noticed the colo nel's Gladstone bag. It had been reposing peacefully in tho rack above my head, and I threw it down in hopes of using it for a pillow. Somehow it slipped and fell to the floor. "Look out!" said the colonel. 'If you dropped that bag a year ago that way, I wouldn't have given much for your chances of living; no, nor mine -either." I saw then there was a history in the bag and said, "Why?" "It isn't a long story, but may keep you awake. I'll tell you about it. When I left the army and re turned home from India, I was not very fltell off. I had studied ex plosives in the east, ?ind some one at tho club recommended me to a French company which had been formed about the same time to per fect a new explosive which, they were assured, would be favorably considered by the war office. The salary was good and the subject in teresting, so I accepted their offer. "I established my laboratory out side of Versailles and went to work with a will. In my experiments, however, I found myself all at once out of nitroglycerin, which I needed absolutely. I wrot? to the company. No dynamite was to be had. Then j I went up to tho French war office and saw the secretary. He was sor- j ry, so very sorry, but at the present ! time, in the clisturbed state of the j country, etc., ho regretted that it ' would not be in his power to fur nish nitroglycerin to private per sons. However, he would do what he could, and he gave un a letter to j Colonel Majendie, chief of explo sives in London, who, he said, would surely honor my re Juest. "That night I took the club train to London, and next morning at 10 o'clock found me at tho chief's of fice. I presented my letter and stat ed what I wanted. The chief re garded me with suspicion (you must remember it was during ihe dyna mite scare in England), and the more I explained the less he believ ed me. various officers were intro duced, one after the othei^ for no other purpose, I believe, than to take down my personal character istics as a professional dynamiter. "At last the chief said that, in accordance with articles so and so, sections this and that of tho office rules, he would be reluctantly com pelled to refuse my request. ,cThen I got tired. "I told the chief I wanted the ex plosive and meant to get it. *But you can't,* said he. 1 will/ said I, 'and carry it through London, too, whether you like it or no.* *We'li see/ said Majendie; 'You will said I, and I left him.' "That night when I walked home io my chambers I felt rather dis couraged. There was ten pounds of nitroglycerin which I must have, and Lord only knows how many people Majendie might put in the way of my securing it. 1 wandered about London aimlessly for a week, and at last, when just about to de spair, luck turned. Near Birming ham, I heard, a company hacEbeen formed to work a mine and used ex plosives. "I took the next train from Lon don and went there. There was a 'little village near tho place, and from it I drove out to the works. I shall never forget it. When I got to tho mine, I met a hungry looking man, who asked me roughly what I wanted. I saw he was the person I was after. ".'Come ono side/ I said. 'You use dynamite here V " *Yes,v for oxplosiveB., r "Do you want ?20 P '"Yes".' '"j^hen get me ten pounds of ni troglycerin if yon can.' "I gave him the money, and ho put it in his pocket. " 'Wait here/ was all he said. "That evening I drove back to the little country hotel with my treasure in the Gladstone bag. ? put it in thc room, locked the door .and slept outside, for I knew the fumes bf the nitric acid would es cape through the bag. In the morn ing I got up early and took the train for London with my precious cargo. ''At London it took but a short time to rush into a compartment of tho Paris express, which waa, just de parting. "Here .my real trouble began. I put my precious bag on the frame m iront of me. Tho carriage was crowded, and I began to doze after "the train started. Suddenly I_look -,.. if ed Tup. Xf?llowpass?nger liad seiz ed the bag and was about to throw it to the floor to make. room, for some of his own luggage. Luckily I seized it in time. If I hadn't well, I wouldn't have been here now to tell the story, "After the train had progressed half way to Dover one man in the impairment said: 'Blast this rail way servioe! Here I got a head ache,, the first in my life, through the ventilation.' Another also com plained of ? headache, and oj the time we reached Dover there were sever very ill men in the compart ment. r~ "I was, ill, too, bu*. I knew the cause. It was the fumes of nitro glycerin. . "At Dover as we got on the boat there was unother narrow escape. A stupid porter seized the Gladstone bag and tried to balance it on his head. I rescued it in time. "We got aboard the boat at Calais all right, and I sat pensively watch ing that infernal bag, which rested quietly, as if it had not been filled with dynamite enough to blow up the ship, within ten feet of me. The passage, thank neaten^ was smooth, but I felt pretty well done up. I left the bag and walked down into the cabin, thinking of the cus tom house officers who were await ing us on the other side. At last I saw a man- an interpreter, a Frenchman-and I decided to make him help me. I sat down in the cabin and began to weep. It isn't hard if you know ho\v. He said, *Does monsieur require anything ?' I looked up, wiped away my tears and told him my .sorrow. "It was to the ?effect that my wife was dying in Paris. She had tele graphed me, and I was about to soothe her last moments by my pres ence. He became immediately in terested and begged me to cheer up. I agreed "to do so on condition that he would join me in a bottle of cham pagne, which he did gladly. As we walked I slipped two napoleons into his hand and said: " *Now I want to get away quick on the first train. Pvc nothing but a satchel and don't want to be de tained by the customs house at Ca lais. Can you arrange matters ?' He swore that he would and kept his word. When the boat landed, my ? satchel was carried triumphantly ashore on the shoulders of my friend the interpreter, and I passed the customs house without a mo ment's delay. "And so we went to Paris-the Gladstone bag, filled with nitroglyc erin, and myself-and in course of time arrived at the Gare du Nord. I hailed a passing cab and directed the driver to my address, but cau tioned him to avoid the rough streets on the journey. Like all Parisian hackmen, he did just the opposite till I stopped him. *My friend,' said I, 'do you know what's in that satchel you have between your legs on the box? Well, sir, there's enough dynamite to blow your whole outfit to the devil, and if you don't drive quieter the chances are against you. You nev er saw a more careful driver after ! that in your life. j "Finally I arrived at my rooms, and the next day I got up early, for j I was beginning to get afraid of that infernal satchel by this time ! myself, and went to Versailles, where I stored the stuff safely in my laboratory and exploded it at my leisure. "I wrote to Majendie in London afterward, telling of my success, and received a short reply saying that I ought to be in jail this min ute. "Funny, isn't it, that these Eng lish officials have no sense of hu mor?" And here the colonel lit another cigar, while I watched the Gladstone bag reflectively. < A BlUer Retort. Mme. d? Stael was angry with the Count de Choiseul for witty stings .and sarcasms of which he had made her the subject. Once the two ene mies met in a drawing room. Mme. de Stael and the count greeted each other on account of the laws of po liteness. "We have not seen each other for a long time," said she. "Oh, madame," replied he, "I have been ?11" "Have you?" "I thought I was poisoned 1" "Alas I Perhaps you had bitten your tongue." This terrible cut fell like a thun ?erbolt on the count, so famous for his slanders and scandals.

QUEER MEXtO&N CUSTOMS. Convenient Manner of Performing a Dreaded Society Duty. Some of the Mexican customs save much trouble, says a corre spondent of the Boston Herald. You are invited out to dine. On { rising from the table you tliank your host? for their hospitality? and thus is your dreaded dinner call accom plished. Now, I contend that this is most civilized and amazingly con venient. No Mexican arises from the table without expressing Ins thanks for the hospitality extended to him, and always this is dono with . old fashioned grace of speech. The poorest man you have at table, per-' haps, as I haye seen, a humble ranchero, would not forget this lit- 1 tie act of thanks, not for his life. j A man of rough exterior will sit ; down to meat with you, and, though j ho may mix up his forks and bran dish a fork in the air along with his j knife as he *alks, he will observe many graceful customs, offering whatever is passed him to a lady; at his elbow and if ho gets a tidbit insist on his neighbor sharing it. In country places your host in true Moorish fashion will put a choice morsel in your mouth. At bottom Mexican etiquette is Moro-Spanish. and many of tho most familiar arti clea of food hark back for their or igin to the Arabs. Especially is this so in the matter of sweetmeats, and the famous alondigas, meat balls of small size with a stuffing of eggs and sometimes of spices, are Moorish for a thousand years. On the tables of the well to do the des sert is a matter of wonder and shows the Arabian taste for sweets. Some times half a dozen delicious pre serves will be seen. The people have a very sweet tooth. lt 8pelled the Name. I He walked up to the hotel xagis- j ter and signed his name with a | flourish, "E. K. Phtholognyrrh." | "Look here, Turner!" exclaimed the clerk, who knew him well, "Are they hunting for you or what? Where do you get that outlandish name?" "Get back, my boy, get back! You're slow," replied Turner airily as he lit a cigar. "That's my same old name, written in plain English and pronounced as usual-just '?Tur ner.' Look at it. Of course I do it just to get them all guessing. They wonder what nation I am from; what my name is. I can now hear people talk about me all around. It is, as I said before, English spelling. : Thth,' there is the sound of 't' in : 'phthisis; 'olo,' there is the 'ur* in j 'colonel;' 'gn,' there is the 'n' in ; 'gnat;' 'yrrh' is the sound of 'er* in j 'myrrh.' Now, if that does not spell < 'Turner' what does it spell ?"-Chat. Wearing Out the Nerves. Many people wear themselves out needlessly. Their conscience is a tyrant. An exaggerated sense of duty leads many it person to anx ious, ceaseless activity, to be con stantly doing something, overpunc tual, never idle a second of time, scorn to rest. Such are in uncon scious nerve tension. They say they have no time to -"*st, they have so much to do, not thinking they are rapidly unfitting, themselves for probably what would have been their best and greatest work in aft er years. Self control of nervo force is tho great lesson of health and therefore of life itself. To under stand how to relax is to understand how to strengthen nerves. Hearty laughter is a source of relaxation, as are also all high thoughts, as those of hope, beauty, trust or love. Re laxation is found in diversion. London Doctor. . 4 I Reckoning Without His Host. A little. story from the Atlanta Constitution seems to indicate that Tennyson is not a name to conjure with always: A poetical traveler, stopping at a Georgia inn, dismounted from his horse and called to tho landlord, who was lounging on the veranda: "Wrinkled oJ?ti?r; sr1"? and thin. Hero ls custom come your way; Take my brute and lead him In; Stuff his ribs with moldy hay." "Ef you say that ag*in," said the landlord, "I'll lam you side tho head ! with this hickory! Thar's a boy ! here to look after tho bosses !" "My good man," explained thu traveler, "I meant no offense. I I was only quoting Tennyson to you." "Hang .Tennyson !" exclaimed the landlord. "And tell him I said so! Neither him nor you kin make a stable boy o' me !" Woman. Nobody who ever loves a woman ever asks himself why ho loves her; ho doesn't care why.

One of the officials connected vrith the secret servico branch of the treasury department, recently dis cussing the methods of counterfeit ers, stated that in spite of their great skill und industry they hod never been able to make u bill which did not have ouo or moro vulnerable spots. Perhap? the feature of good treasury notes which counterfeiters have found it most difficult to hui tate is tlie two blue silk threads which run lengthwise through them "In the first place," he said, "the silk threads are put in the paper when it is made at the factory. To make paper of the kind used by the government requires a big plant and lots of capital, so counterfeiters are kept out of it Even if they had the necessary money they wouldn't be fools enough to risk it all for the chance of making bogus bills. It would bo exceedingly unprofitable for a paper manufacturer who al ready has a factory to mako thc pa per, because to do so is a peniten tiary offense." The writer was then shown a two dollar bill which had a single thread running through ita center. "This, ' continued the secret servico man, "is I the only bad bill that I ever saw i with a silk thread in ;*. Even this has only one thread .stead of two, so it would not lie dangerous to a skilled teller. I have never heard of moro than two other bills like this one. It is easy to seo that the coun terfeiter split this note, put in his thread and then pasted the two parts together again. "The frayed edges show that. The fellow must have been very stupid not to know that genuine money has two threads instead of one. An expert can easily tell when a bill has been split in two and pasted togeth er again, so thc silk threads would not deceive him."-New York Her ald. _ A Study of Eyco. A story is told of the courtship of the late Sir George Airy, the famous astronomer. By reason of his ti midity ho seemed doomed to be a bachelor for life. But fortune fa vored him, and he drif U ? into mat rimony in an unexpected way. An intimate friend remarked to him one day: "Have you ever observed Miss -'s eyes? They have the property of double refraction." "Dear me, that is very odd!" he ex claimed. "I should like to see that." Do you think I might venture to call?" And call he did and begged {?ermission to examine the young ad/s eyes. The novelty of the situation may have fascinated him. At any rate, he begged the privilege of a second look at the eyes in a clear light. The problem grew so interesting j that he at length came to the con I elusion to make it a life study. The ? boldness born of scientific curiosity j enabled him ultimately to propose, j He was accepted, and tho strange courtship ended in a happy mar riage. _ Th? Turn of the Sheet. Two lord chancellors of England made the turning over of a sheet of note paper a device for executing their neatest joke. Lord Chancellor Eldon, having been asked by a cler ical friend to give him a certain liv ing, wrote on one side of a sheet of paper: Dear Fisher-I cannot today gi va you tho preferment' for which you oak. I ro main your sincero friend. ELDOK. Turn over. (On tho other side): I eave lt to you yesterday. Sir John {Sinclair, who had done mucK for the agriculture of Eng land and Scotland, thought tho na tion should present him with a testi monial and wrote to Lord Chancel lor Erskine, inviting him to sub scribe to it. On one side of a sheet of paper Erskine replied: My Dear Slr John-I am certain there aro few In this kingdom who set a higher value on your services than myself, and I have tho honor to subscribe (On the other side tho note concluded): -myself ynnr obedient, falthf*.1'. servant. EnsiciNE. English From the Dictionary. A teacher of French now in New York tells a story of the difficulty sho experienced in learning English when she first como here and of some of the ludicrous blunders she made, now that she appreciates the full force of certain of tho terms and words that mado up her earlier vocabulary. Tho teacher had grown tired of chops and steaks and one or two moro standard articles of food, and she yearned for a meal made up of such things os she had eaten at home, notably calf's brains a la vinaigrette, spinach chopped fine with an egg dressing and one or two other dishes. Sho made out her bill of fare all right until she came to tho brains, and to find an equiva lent she had recourse to her dic tionary. This is what she asked for at a butcher's shop, "And, pices, some of-some of zo intelligence of zo calf." ; CASTOR GA For Infants and Children.

D?d Not Know Him. Col. A. Ii. Andrews, first vice prcsi lent of the Southern railway, once oaned his private car to Grover cleveland to go on ono of his periodi cal duck hunts. Col. Andrews took ?roafc care to coach his porter to say 'Mr. Prosident" every time ho ad Iresscd tho HOD. Grover, and by tho linio the ex-president got into tho car tho nogro had it down fine. "Walk in,Mr. President," was the first re mark. "Have a seat, Mr. President," was tho noxt. "Diuncris served, Mr. President," was tho third. "I will show you to your stateroom, Mr President," followed. "This is Col. Andrews' private room, Mr. Presi dent," said the porter. "Nobody uses this room but Col. Andrews, Mr President," said the negro in a pat ronizing way. Mr. Cleveland to humor him, perhaps-, said: u\Vho in the thun der is Col. Andrcws'r 1 "You don't know Col. Andrews?" said thc por ter. "No; who is he?" replied Mr. Cleveland. Tho negro collapsed, and during tho remainder of tho trip he let tho ex-president wait on himself, %s the fact that he did not know Col. Andrews Bcenied to bc *oo muoh for him.-Atlanta Journal. ( Answer. A certain learned professor was in struoting a cb.ss of schoolboys about thc circulation of tho blood.

A little girl, who was being "sass ed" by another little girl, was holding in splendidly, and she continued to keep her peace, whilo the other little girl said, apparently, all there was to say on tho subject: "You were a nice little girl," a person who had overheard the conver sation observed, "not to talk to that other little girl." "Well," the little imp answered, "you see, if I had told her what I thought of her sho would have had a chance to answer back, but as she doesn't know what I think, she cannot do anything about it, candue?" -O ?i" - - The greatest man is he who trou bles himself the least about tho ver dict that may be passed upou him by posterity, but who finds in doing good honest work to the best of his ability, under existing conditions, "its own exceeding great reward."
