That was a magnificent feat per formed by a French regiment when they were fighting the Austrians. It happened a long time ago. but the Inci dent was marked by such superlative valor that It will never be forgotten. The regiment, under Colonel Walhn bert, was sent to take an intrenchment of the Austrians in the heights of the Simplon pass. Arriving at the point, they found the enemy solidly intrench ed in what appeared to be an Impreg nable position. In front of their re doubts and quite separating them from the French force was a deep chasm through which ran a mountain torrent. How to get across was a problem seemingly impossible to solve. But the colonel was equal to it. He found a long, straight tree with a trunk almost a foot in thickness. This he ordered to be cut down, and the trunk was ac tually thrust across the chasm under a galling tire. The colonel gave the word to pass over-one man at a time. The fi'st was shot and pitched down to deatL in the chasm. The second and third .hared his fate, but presently a few succeeded in the desperate at tempt. Then the colonel followed, formed the little party on the oth'. side and charged. The enemy, uum founded at such extraordinary brav ery, left their position and tied.-Cas sel's.

Pap Perkins, Postmnaster of Jericho, Tells How DisNenNion Marred the Discussion of the Proposition and How the Project Ended. [Copyright, 190, by C. B. Lewis.] It was Enos Hopkins who got the idea that Jericho should prove her pa triotism to the world at large by dis playin the American flag for seven days a week. He got the idea one Sunday inorniD as he lay in bed, and he hugged it to his soul and chuckled over it for a week before he said any thing to a livin soul. Everybody knew by his actions that somethin was up, but they ceuldn't tigger out exactly what it was. At length, when Sat urday night came. and there was the usual crowd at the postothce, he shot off his gun. He had his speech all pre pared. He told how the American flag was first flung to the breeze-how men cheered for liberty as they saw it-how it had given freedom to a con tinent and brought happiness to mil lions. Men had fought cheerin for that flag, and aen had died blessin it. He wanted it h'isted in Jericho at sun rise every day in the year, and he wanted children to cry for it and men and women to venerate it. Monday was wash day in Jericho. and front yards and back yards made a beauti ful showin of sheets and shirts and TorG T "HAVE WE NO PUBLIC sPRKRIT AMONG US?" towels and tablecloths, but above them all would flap and flop the flag which had covered the heroes of Bun ker Hill as they died in the cause of liberty. As soon as the crowd had recovered from its surprise and begun to cheer Deacon Spooner said It was a mighty strong pint and one worthy of a leadin patriot of Jericho. He was heartily In favor of the idea, and he would then and there contribute 13 cents toward the purchase of a public flag. He also thought a vote of thanks was due Enos for his cuteness in thinkin out the idea. A foappin, floppin tlag h'isted to the balmy breezes of Jericho would give the town worldwide fame and probably grndhic had veed the roetin Bun had Hille a teydkiled nhemse whil lwrpet imiyh.fa fiet Ashsn was thenrowd head oere tonghpt a an ongwrthy of sar teat too ereichhodr.

W.c a.n salnes Wetot cst., WeMaDe LC1"tes to rde said he was glad his dog had bit the ear off that.hog and that he'd like to serve Joel the same way. Deacon Spooner rattled on the stovepipe with his car.e until he quieted the racket, and then he said: "Feller patriots, but have we no pub lic speerit among us?" "We have!" yelled the crowd. "Then let us exhibit it. Bein my cooper shop is the highest buildin in town and bein the American flag has got to flip-flap in the breeze to be see' and venerated, I unselfishly offer to put up a pole and take charge of the flag." "So do I!" shouts every man in the crowd. Then Squar Joslyn made a speech. He told how a million men had died for that flag; how its stars and bars had made tyrants tremble: how a young nation had worshiped it and made all the world respect it. He wound up after ten minits by offerin to float it from his boss bari, but only hisses and groans follered. There was signs that three or four patriots would soon be punchin each other's head when Lish Billings strolled in in that careless way of his. Deacon Spooner pounded and rattled till be got order and then said: "I want to hear from Lish Billings on this matter. Mebbe he can suggest somethin. Lish. what place in Jericho would you say the American flag ought to float from'" "How many stars are there on the American flag?" calmly asks Lish. Nobody could tell. "Well, how many stripes?" Nobody could tell. "'Pears to me," said Lish as be start ed to wander out ag'in-"'pears to me that as none of you can tell the differ ence between the American flag and a tablecloth you'd better hang up an old arms blanket most anywhere and let it go at that." And at the end of five minits more there wasn't a patriot left in the post office, and nothin more has ever been said about buyin a public flag. M. QUAD. A PORTER'S MISTAKE. The Story of a Lady's Frlzzes and an Actor's Rage. As the porter passed through the car she called him aside. There was a whisper and a gleam of silver. - "Now, remember they are in the yel low satchel." "Cyan't miss dem, ma'am." "You won't let any one see you?" "No. ma'am." "The major is sitting in that car." "He won't see rte, ma'am." "Well, here is the key." The porter took the key and passed through to the next car. "Guess dis am it," he said, slipping the thin key in the lock of a yellow satchel. Ile put his hand in the satch el and pulled out a bunch of hair. Then he relocked the satchel. "Heah's yo' frizzes, ma'am !" "Don't speak so loud." "Anything else, ma'am?'.' "That's all, I believe. I just have a minute to put these on before dinner." The porter reached the platform in time to meet an irate tragedian. "Not a step!" he thundered in tones that almost lifted the porter's cap. "What have you done with my whisk ers. boy ?" "Your whiskers, sahi?" "Yes; my false beard. The passen gers say you opened my satchel with a skeleton key. WVhere are those whisk ers?" "Laws." muttered the porter. "Ah went in de wrong satchel!" Just then a lady passed toward the dining car. "Dab's yo' whiskers. sah," grinned the porter. "on top ob dat lady's bald!" -Chicago News. The Dust of Ocean. A "dusty" ocean highwvay sounds al most incredible. Yet those who are familiar with sailing ships know that no matter how carefully the decks may be washed down in the morning and how little work of any kind may be done during the day nevertheless if the decks are not swept at nightfall an enormous quantity of dust will quickly collect. Of course on the modern "liner"~ the burning of hundreds of tons of coal every 24 hours and the myriads of footfalls daiy would account for a considerable accumulation of dust, but on a "wind jammer," manned with a dozen hands or less, no such dust pro ducing agencies are at work.. And yet the records of sailing ships show that they collect more sea dust than does a steamer, which is probably accounted for by the fact that while the dust laden smoke blows clear of the steamer the large area of canvas spread by the sailer acts as a dust collector.-Mari nr. The Star Chamber. The "star chamb'er"' was so <.alled from the place in which the court was held in one of the rooms of the king's palace in Westminster. Upon the ceil ings were stars, hence the camera stel lata, or chamber of stars. It was of very ancient origin and had excessive powers, but could not pronounce the death penalty. It was abolished by act of parliament in 1641 during the reign of Charles I, but this unfortunate mon arch was sentenced to be beheaded from this same "star chamber." It Hurt Him.

There is one animal which lives en tirely in trees, but is able to maintain its position during slumber without the least exercise of muscular force. This is the sloth, common in the forests of tropical America. Its long claws are so bent that they hook over the branches and allow the creature to hang upside down like an animated hammock. Cu riously enough, the hammock appears to be a South American invention and is universally employed by all the In dian tribes of the Amazons. Perhaps the primitive human dwellers in this region took to sleeping in hammocks after observing the habits of the sloth. The great ant eater, which is both a kinsman and fellow countryman of the sloth, has an enormous tail, which it uses in a very remarkable manner. I recently saw two of these strange ani mals lying together asleep, and they had arranged their tails so cleverly that their whole bodies were hidden from view. Moreover, it was evident that this caudal covering would afford excellent protection from the weather, for the central solid part of the tails acted as a kind of ridge pole over the highest part of the sleepers' bodies, so that the long fringes of hair sloped downward on each side like the thatch upon a roof. Like the sloths, many kinds of bats sleep suspended by their hooked claws without any muscular exertion what ever. Some of the large fruit eating bats of the tropics, which do not sleep in holes like the species common in I southern latitudes, but which hang sus pended to the branches of trees in the open air, adopt a position which it would be difficult to beat for economy and comfort. Gould's fruit eating bat, common in the warmer parts of Aus tralia, suspends itself upside down by one hind foot and wraps its body in the tentlike folds of its wing membranes, which extend right down to the an kles. Its shoulders, to which the mem brane Is attached, are humped up so as to act as eaves to shoot off the rain, and when asleep it draws its head un der their shelter and nestles its nose among the warm fur of its chest. SAVED BY PALMISTRY. Tattered Individual Proves His Case by Showing Ulu Hands. "Reasoning from antecedent proba bility," said the justice to a prisoner with a soppy hat and a turned down mouth, "I would say that when this policeman accuses you of being a tramp he is speaking with a high re gard for the truth." "Knowing little about logic," the de fendant replied, "I am unable to say whether I am guilty on that proof. But by palmistry I am innocent. My life line is good, my capacity for hard work is simply astonishing, and my confidence in my own ability is su perb." "Score one for palmistry. Now hold up your hands." They went up. "I can't tell whether you have work ed by the looks of those hands," said the justice. "But in the interest of the spread of knowledge I will digress and say to you that an article known as soap was invented some years ago." 'Never heard of it," said the prisoner cheerfully, "and I know just as much about my guilt or innocence as I do about soap. You might try me by a jury of my peers." "Your peers are too busy tellng fairy tales to bartenders on this muggy morning to come out to help the ends of justice. The dollar they'd get for fury service would make them die of heart disease." "A doctor told me I'd never have that," the prisoner said. "I'm not intensely interested in the state of your health," the justice said coldly. "I don't know whether you're a tramp, and neither do you. I am in clined to the opinion that you are, but T guess no policeman will arrest you between here and the corner." The prisoner made the trial trip suc cessfully and was seen no more.-Chi cago Journal. "Low Neck DInners." A few days ago a lady in pursuit of a cook was interviewing and being inter viewed at a certain employment bu reau. "I shall want you to go into the country with me," she remarked to the mighty personage, who was eying her from head to foot "Yez, main; and do ye have low neck dinners, mamn?" Mrs. Cook inquired. "'Low neck din ners!' What do you mean by that?" said the lady. "Well, nmam, do yez eat yez dinner in low neck dresses? I hey a fri'nd who says she'll not take no place unless the family eats in low necks, an I thought I wouldn't either." So this is what we are all coming to! Not even our domestics will endure "plain living." and if one wants a $6 cook she can't have her without prom ising to "eat in low neeks."-Boston Herald. The Dog's Watchfulness. The dog's watchfulness, so much and so thoughtlessly lauded as the expres sion of his devotion to man, is merely the instinctive watchfulness necessary to his safety in a wild state and is a characteristic which he would exercise quite as readily for his own kind and the preservation of his lair as he would for the bereIt of man. When be barks at strange dogs or gives warning at night of the approach of strangers, it should not be overlooked that he con siders his own home is disturbed. though it may be the home of his mas ter. .Mu ch depends on the point of view.-B.
