A PRANK THAT ENLIVENED A SNOW
BOUND MINING TOWN.
The Resurrection of a Supposed
Dead Lawyer Was a Mutual Sur
prise to the Community and to the
Victim of the Tricksters.
"Life in a mining camp when it is
snow bound," said a prominent mining
man of Chicago the other day, "is a
dreary time, and men will do anything
for the sake of a little amusement.
The story I am going to tell you actual
ly did occur, and at that time we all
welcomed the joke as a godsend and
made a hero of its perpetrator.
"The winter of 1803 rested an appall
ingly heavy hand on the Ccour d'Alene.
Buried many feet deep under a mass of
fleecy snow, the country lay prostrate.
So intense was the cold and so heavy
the weight of the snow that it was pos
sible to work none but the. richest
claims. Ingress to and egress from
that bountifully rich territory was a
feat that none but the hardiest man
dared essay, for it was an even chance
that death from exposure might be the
lot of the one who attempted it.
"Wallace at this time was a thriving,
busy, prosperous town where the arti
ficial excitement of a mining boom ev
erywhere betrayed itself. The shutting
down of many of the mines had left a
large number of men living in Wallace
with nothing to do. Time hung heav
ily on their hands, and nothing was of
too small importance to attract interest
provided it held out the hope of killing
a few hours of the dreary time of wait
ing.
"Just at this period the most promi
nent young lawyer of the town fell ill.
There wasn't anything particular the
matter with him except a heavy cold
and impending fever; but, being some
what of a hypochondriac, he at once
believed himself to be in a dangerous
condition. He promptly took himself
to his bed in the rear of his office, de
nied himself to all but two or three of
his intimate friends, installed a nurse
to look after his wants and promptly
gave himself over to that luxury of be
lieving himself to be really ill which Is
so dear to the hypochondriac's heart.
"The three men who were his friends
and who were admitted to his apart
ment took advantage of the conditions
surrounding him to perpetrate a prac
tical joke that has since become fa
mous in the northwest. They gave out
the news that the lawyer, one Jack
Greene, had died, and as his mourning
friends they received the camp, which
called in a body to express its regret.
"In the meantime Greene, In the next
room, heard nothing, the visitors being
naturally quiet in -the presence of
death. One of his friends went to the
local undertaker and, informing him
that Jack was dead, purchased a cof
fin. Alleging the hard winter and con
sequent hard times, he beat the 'under
taker down one-half in his price. The
undertaker, however, got even by sup
plying a plain pine box painted a deep
black. This was placed in Jack's office,
and in the dead of night lumber care
fully weighted to the weight of
Greene's body was packed inside it by
the three conspirators. The lid was
then screwed down, and the following
day John Greenie, followed by the en
tire population of the town of Wallace,
Ida., was laid away in the cold, cold
ground.
"About ten days later Jack, having
enti-ely recovered his pristine health,
appeared upon the street. To say that
his advent created a sensation is to put
it mildly. Three or four superstitious
miners, thinking it was his 'ha'nt,'
straightway took to theIr cabins on the
hillside and to prayer and fasting.
The only woman in the camp had a fit
of hysterics and fainted dead away.
Greene, however, stopped the general
panic that his appearance was precip
Itating by stepping into the Crystal
Palace saloon and there absorbing his
four fingers of 'red eye' in a perfect'ly
natural and earthilke manner.
"It was hard to tell whether the town
of Wallace or Jack Greene was the
more astonished by the explanations
that there ensued. At length, when
those present had become convinced
beyond cavil or doubt that it was
Greene in the flesh and not Greene in
the spirit-although by this time it
must be confessed that spirit in great
plenty was in Greene-they sent for
the three conspirators.
"'What did you do it for?' was the
question addressed in blunt and simple
terms to the ringleader.
"'Well, I'll tell you. You see we
wanted to run Jack for a town office
and we thought in this way we could
get a line on how he stood with the
community. But'-and here he slapped
a wad of newspaper clippings down
on the bar in front of the astonished
and aggrieved Greene, 'Jack, you won't
do. Just read those obituaries and see
what the people think of you. Why,
after such a send off as that we
wouldn't dare to run you for the office
of picking fleas off a yellow dog that
was locked up on the town farm.'"

A Ligration Which Takes Place Aft
er the Creatures' Birth.
Flatfishes keep their white and blind
side on the muddy or sandy bottom
and pretend that the upper and spec
kled side is a part of that bottom. This
they do to avoid observation, for in
spite of their awkward shape they are
swallowed at sight by pertinacious ene
mies, to the manifest discomfort of
both. A greedy cormorant curling up
and attempting to swallow a plaice,
which tries to be as disobliging as pos
sible, affords an object lesson not soon
forgotten on the way not to behave at
mealtimes. But the bird usually suc
ceeds in its object, and the flatfish, in
spite of persistent elrorts to retain Its
natural flatness, al. last disappears
down the round, elastic throat of the
cormorant. With a view to avoid un
pleasantnesses of this kind, soles are
wont to hide themselves in the sand,
keeping only their eyes above the sur
face to act as sentin 1s.
In reality the dark surface of a sole,
plaice or turbot is its side and not its
back. It is true tha 1 both eyes are vis
Ible, which is not the case when a
mackerel or a conger is laid on its side,
but this Is simply owing to the fact
that one eye of a flatfish has since the
creature's birth passed across what we
may call the bridge of its nose to keep
company with the other eye.
The wandering eye begins its migra
tion at a very early age-so early, In
deed, that it is a little difficult to detect
it on its journey. A plaice a fifth of an
inch in length and 5 days old carries
one eye on each side of its nose. When
three-flfths of an inch long and about
2 months old, the left eye has crossed
over to the right side. Lemon soles
when one inch long-or 2 months old
have the left eye on the edge of the
head, but when double that size and (
months old both eyes are found on the
right side. A sole assumes its lopsided
aspect by the time it has been hatched
2 months. When a turbot is half an
inch in length. the right eye just be
gins to peep over the center arch of the
bridge, at three-quarters of an inch it
Is half way across, and at an inch the
passage is complete and the two eyes
look out from the left side of the head.

AN ABANDONED FARM.
It Surely Was Hard and Stony Land,
and No Exaggeration.
She was on the witness stand in her
own behalf, being also defendant in the
action. She was a sturdy widow, hard
working, shrewd in a deal and garru
lous. A landlord was suing for back
rent on a little farm she had abandon
ed.
"You say that the land was hard and
sour and sterile?'" suggested the attor
ney for the plaintiff.
"That's what I said, only I wasn't so
persniffity abcut it, and I'll say more"
"Just a moment, please. We want
evidence, not opinions. Did you raise
anything on this land of ours?"
"Land of o'lrs!" with a sniff. "You
never owned a thimbleful of it. Yes, I
did raise things on it. It took two hills
to raise a bean and a whole row of
corn to raise a nubbin. I raised a cab
in, I raised a pigpen, and I tried to
raise a goat, but it starved to death,
poor thing! That ground wouldn't raise
dog fennel or even Canada thistles."
"Don't exaggerate, please. You say
the soil was sour'?"
"I couldn't exaggerate about that
ground if I was a lawyer. In the morn
ing when the dew was steaming off in
the sunshine you'd think you was liv
ing next door to a pickle factory. I
kept my sugar in an airtight jar."
"Pshaw! That's ridiculous. I sup
pose the ground was so hard you could
not blast it?"
"Nuthing of the kind. I'm here to
tell the truth. But I'll tell you how
hard that ground was. I ha~d to crop1
my set onions out with a hatchet, and ai

Bedrooms and Breathing.
While no scientist, I think, will rec
ommend less than seven cubic feet of
air each minute for an adult, Dr. Reed
gives ten as the smallest amount that
will meet the wants of the body. All
of this, of course, is not absolutely
used, only needed that purity may be
secured. The average room-12 by 10
and 8 feet high--even if the room is
empty, will consume only 960 cubic
feet, or enough to supply air for one
person for about two hours. Now,
when two or even four persons occupy
such a room, the doors and windows
closed to keep out the supposed "poi
sonous night air," it Is not strange that
the stench of vitiated air is overpower
ing to one who enters the room after
breathing the pure air of heaven, such
as the good Father intended for 'ase.

A Dnall Judge. -
Some years ago King Edward VII
then Prince of Wales, was a guest a
a country house in England, and, pick
Ing up a sporting paper in the blilliari
room one morning, was soon deep Ii
Its contents. A clergyman, also i
guest, noticed this, and, sidling up
asked in a tone that was meant t<
carry reproof, "Is your royal hIghnesi
really interested in that paper?"
The prince glanced around. "I neve1
read anything I do not feel Intereste
In," he remarked.
The clergyman, though, would not b
denied. "Do you know, your roya
highness, that one of my friends hai
lost hundreds of pounds by betting o
horse racing and has never won any
thing?" he asked.
"Well," said the prince as he turne
to another column, "he must have beei

"Save Me From My Frsends."
This saying Is commonly attribute
to Voltaire, who at Ferney when pes

from my friends; I will defend mysel:
from my enemies."
The thought, however, is attrlbute
by the French to Marshal Villars
while Kant discovers It in an Italiai
proverb, and a German collection o:
proverbial wisdom gives It in a modi
fled form. Antigonus, one of the gen

A Legend of the Salty Sea.
, There are hundreds of queer myths
and traditions given to account for the
-. fact that the sea is salt. The Arabs
I say that when the first pair sinned they
were living in a beautiful garden on a
tract of land joined to a mainland by a
narrow neck or isthmus. When it be
came known to the Holy One that his
people had sinned, he went to the gar
den for the purpose of driving them out
and across the narrow neck of land
I Into the patch of thorns and brambles
on the other side. Anticipating what
would be the consequence of their hel
nous crime, they htd prepared to leave
their beautiful garden and had actually
gone so far as to send the children and
goats across into the thicket.
When the Holy One -appeared on the
scene, the first pair started to run, but
the woman looked back. For this the
man cursed her and for such a crime
was almost immediately turned into a
block of salt Compare with Genesis xix.
26. The woman, more forgiving than
- her husband, stooped to pick up the
shapeless mass of salt, when imme
diately the narrow neck of land began
to crack and break. is she touched
what had once been her companion she,
too, was turned to salt Just as the neck
of the land sank and the waters rush
ed through. From that day to this, the
Arabs say, all the waters of the ocean
have rushed through that narrow chan
nel at least once a year, constantly
wearing away the salt of what was
once our first parents, yet the bulk of
the two salty objects is not diminished
in the least.
Huzley and the Clergyma.
A rash clergyman once, without fur
ther equipment in natural history than
some desultory reading, attacked the
Darwinian theory in some sundry mag
azine articles in which he made him
self uncommonly merry at Huxley's
expense. This was intended to draw
the great man's fire, and as the batter
les remained silent the author proceed
ed to write to Huxfey, calling his at
tention to the articles and at the same
time, with mock modesty, asking ad
vice as to the further study of these
deep questions.
Huxley's answer was brief and to
the point, "Take a cockroach and dis
sect it."-Argonaut
It Is said that posts planted in the
earth upper end down will last longer
than those which are set in the natural
position in which the tree grew.
