Some t??'.::ihiuk;;thcy; aire eaifati because they have heavy 1aunoV~ lie Believed The Bear Story. "ID Austin one afternoon," says Senator Bailey, of Texas, according to Harper's Weekly, a humber of State legislators and not a few lawyers were telling stories of bear hunting. A six-footer from the Uuadaloupo bottoms told a story of slaughter of the Brnin family that would have been calculated to astonish the late Baron Munchausen. The teller of this story was, of course, th* hero of the devastation related/and it seems pretty clear from hie recital that he had exterminated all the bears, once so thiok, in the dense canebreaks and swampy jungles of his regies. "When the six-footer had finished bia tale there arose a ohorus of dis sent. Netrly every man present swore roundly against the improbabil ity of the adventures. In fact, sev eral of his auditors did not soruple to apply a plain epithet to that individ ual, and a general clamor ensued. "Agaiubt this vapular verdict there was found only one chars pion. This was a very little mao, who up to that timo bad not spoken a word. V 'Gentlemen,' remarked he, when the noise had subsided, 'I believe every word our friend has uttered. You aro incredulous simply because you. haven't had his opportunities for slaughtering big game. Now, I myself have had experiences in that line, back in old Mississippi, that I almost dread to toll you of, lest you should think that I, too, were draw ing on my imagination. " 'I opuld tell you of the greatest bear bunt in history, baok there on Beer ?reek. We etarU? our gama one Saturday morning and followed him through six counties, camping on his trail every night. His traoks were of the size of a bushel measure. At the end of the third week we caught up with him, our dogs having followed bis trail. I had the lead of my comrades, sud as I approached the scene I gave a yell of encourage ment to the dogs. With that they closed in. on the bear. With the stroke of his terrible paw, that bear .slew forty-eight of the best hunting dogs in Mississippi, and the rest fled. I avenged my dogs by shooting the bear through the brain. -Ho weighed some twelve hundred pounds.' "When the" wiry little man had fin ?shed his story there was not a word, except from the man from Guade loupe. 'That's an infernal lie!' he shouted. "In a twinkling vthe man .from Mis sissippi 'had jumped for the fellow, and. they went to the floor, the little fellow on top, choking his adversary vioiously. " 'You don't believe it, eh?" de manded he, fairly raining blowB upon that prostrate victim. Then take that, and'that, and that. Don't be lieve ii? X believed your bear story, and you'll believe mine, or I'll beat you to a frazzle. "Gasping for breath and begging for mercy, the defeated one rose tb his knees and blurted out: " 'Tho gentleman is telling the truth?. There's no aooouoting for what a beer will do when be gets irri tated." -i-. im m ,'" Hyst?ries of Steel and Ires. Although the steel and iron indus try is GU? of the mightiest of tho world-, and offers such rewards that some of the greatest chemists and other scientists study nothing el BC, there are. lots of apparently simple puzzles about it that np one has been able to solve , yet. The man who dis covers tho right answer to one or two of them may make a million dollars put of it. Every one who handles steel-knows; tliatit gets "tired" at times. Altera piece of steel has been subjected to a severe strain for a certain period, it may suddenly show a deeided weak ness. Then the ezpertB say that it ts tired; and BO it is, for if it is allowed to rest awhile, it regains its old strength. '^^BSvSS Recently it has been found that a ite?? beam\eau be made stronger by increasing the load on it gradually-, in other words, by exercioing it jobi as a man exercises his muscles when ?li? wishes ip make?bem stronger. Very often new steol will not pass tests.that it should pass, but after a few weeks it is found that it has growni better and passes the teeto beautifully. Then, again, steel that vies perfeo? when St wa? tested often gets '}.:BipX.'; , lt. cracks or becomes brittle, ^though cibor steel made at tha Bamo Mm* iu the ?ame way ,4feiains perfectly sound.'

Every Anierlcau is interested in a city that in many ways dwarfs every other municipality on the globe. You would go Boston if business or pleasure called you lhe> e, to Chicago if you were forcod to, and even to Philadelphia, but everybody has gone to New York some day beoause it is the ?merioau oity-in a case by itself. Its growth is something to marvel at. A western boom town seems like a oountry oemetery in comparison. There are sixty theatres-more than I in any other oity in the world-and ono-third of them were erected in the last six years. A few years ago, after an expendi ture of millions, tho Now York water question was supposedly settled for half a century. Nov/ moro millions must be spent, for tho population has overtaken the supply. The new school buildings completed last yoar will more than house a school population equal to the cntiro publio sohool attendanoe in Omaha, yetthcu sauds of school ohildron are going tc schcol half tho time in order that double uso may be made of school buildings. Every year there is addod to the fire department men and equipment equal to the entire department of a city Uko Atlanta. Still there is ory of "inad equate fire protection." There are over 8,000 mon on thc New York police foroe. They, with their families, would populate a rc .peotable city. New Yorkere sa] thugs run riot because of the small ness of the force. Homes are no longer ereoted in No? York proper. That is because the en tire territory is being given over. ti flats, hotels, thentreo, skyscrapers noe business houses. It is a city of churches, of saloons of politicians, of graft, of pleasur and of sorrow. Its pleasures, its philanthropies, it business and its sins are all on gigantio scale. It is today a pulsing, living adver tisemcnt for a mighty nation, am Americans are proud of it.-Atlant Journal. Wouldn't Commit Forgery. Among tho candidates for appoinl ment to a vaoanoy on tho police foro of an Irish town WSB one Patriok Mn? phy, whose appearanoe before the um j cr was hailed with Cries of "Ho can' write 1" The mayor ssid he was onl there to take down the names of a] plioBLts, who would come up a fori night later for examination. A friend set Murphy in a fail round hand to copy "Patrick Murphy and kept him praotioing at it assh uously. When tho eve.itful day a rived, "Take that pin," laid the ma] or, "and write-write your name. As. Pat took up the pen exelamatioi arose: "Pat's a-writin'! He's got quill in his fist I Small good will do him! He can't write with it!" All were dnmfounded when Murph recorded his name in a bold, ronn hand and the mayor deolared "That* do," but one of them shouted: "Ask him to writ? somebody else' name, yer honor!" "Write my name, Murphy," sai the mayor. "Write yer.honor's name,".exclaim ed Pat. "Mo commit forgery and g in' into the police! I dar n't do i yer honor 1"- London Tit-Bits.

An Alarming Symptom. "Patients often bave suoh absurO ideas about things!" sighed the doctor in charge of the tuberculosis division of the hospital, says the New York Tribune. "Now, there's the subject of hemorrhages. I had a pationt brought in here who was said to be a bad oase. He had been on an egg and milk diet, yet was np better. I asked him if ho had ever had a hemorrhage, and ho said that he had ono very bad one. " 'Tell mo about it,' said I. 'How were you taken?' " 'Well,' said ho, 'I got hit on tho head with a stick. I bled awful, and tho doctor said it was a bad hemor rhage. He had to take eight stitches to stop it.' "An Irishman occupied abed in thc tuberculosis ward, and one morning as I passed his bcd I asked: 'Well. Pat, do you raiso anything?' Ile didn't understand me. 1 'Do you raise anything when you cough?' I said again, but as he couldn't got what 1 meant through his head I went off. In a fow moments he called mo back. 1 'Oh, doctor,' he said, 'I'vo been noticing, and I do. Every time I cough I raiso me right leg." To Prevent Mistakes.

Stranger: "Oh, I bog your pardon ! Landlord: "What for, sir?" Stranger: " Why-or -sir, do yo know what ever beoame of a youn squirt named Chiggers, that clerke in Pummy's grocery store?"

Stranger: "He was-and he hasn' any more sense nn? than he had iher I'm Chiggers. Shall we call it standoff? -Chicago Tribune. Loss of Taste.
