FearTu% Footnam - Football had its enemies among the parly Puritans in England. In 1583 one PAillp Stubbes produced a work entitled "The Anatomie of Abuses," wherein there is a very fierce attack on football. The game was played with vigor in the sixteenth century "Whosonever scapeth away the best goeth not scot free," writes the au thor, "but is either sore wounded, cralsed and bruised, so as he dyeth of it or else scapeth very hardlie, and no meruaile, for they have the sleights to meet one betwixt two, to dashe him against the harte with the elbowes, to hit him under the short ribs with their griped fists, and with their knees to catch him upon the hippes, and to pick him on the neck, with a hundred such murthering devices; and here'of grow eth envie, malice, rancour, choler,^ba tred, displeasure, enmitie and what not els; and sometimes brawllig,' conten tion. quarrel picking, murther, homi cide and great effusion of blood as experience teacheth." The Puzzle Master. To the present writer, who never got the hang of a single puzzle In all his life without help, Sam Io'yd'was the most remarkable peis6n Ii the 'world, for he Invented 10,000 puzzis in more than half a century of diablical activ ity. He began when he was six by scaring the cook with ventriloquial voices In the kitchen chimney and tak Ing the rabbits out of the pockets of his mother's guests in the parlor. At ten he was a noted chess player and Invented many chess problems. He studied to be an engineer, along wlth side dashes Into painting and drawing, languages and mathematics. But his propensity to puzzle was too much foi him. While still almost a youth he Invented and drew a puzzle In fifteen minutes, printed the first edition at a cost of less than $5 and made $10,000. Who said he would have remained am engIneer when he could make $10,000 In fifteen minutes?-American Maga zine. Cattle, Locusts and Railways. In running railways in Brazil there are two difficulties to contend with which the European traveler does not know-cattle and locusts. The cattle cannot -be kept off the track. Miles and miles of it are fenced In, and yet the cattle manage to force their way through and then cannot get out The cowcatcher is efficient, but not suffi ciently so, as the trains are often de railed by an ox being caught either between the cowcatcher or cylinder and the rail or even between the loco motive and the truss of a bridge, but such accidents are hardly ever serious. Locusts are less common, but occa sionally travel along in clouds. When they come to earth they may pile up to a foot deep in the cuttings, and, of course, the locomotives will skid along uselessly. This happens but infre. quently.-Cassier's Magazine. Bridges In Korea. Some idea of the delights of travel Ing in Korea is given by the following description by a traveler of the "bridges" in that country: A first class bridge In Korea is simply an assort ment of planks nailed together. These are scarce. A second class bridge is a series of isolated stones, from one to another of which the visitor may jump A third class bridge, much the corn monest variety, is Invisible, Its posi. tion being indicated by a couple of posts, one on each side of the river. They mean that you may safely wade across, as the water will probably not go much above your chest Creation of a Knight. The ceremonies at the creation of a knight have been various. The prin' cipal were a bor on the ear and a stroke with a sword on the shoulder. y ohn of Salisbury tells us the blow 'with the naked fist was in use among the ancient Normnns. By thisitwas that William the Conqueror confe:-red the honor of knighthood on his son Henry. It was afterward changed Into a blow with the fiat of the sword on the shoulder of the knight.

One of the most gallant generals that ever surrendered to the enemy was Osman Pasha, the immortal de fender of Plevna. Surrounded by an immeasurably superior army of Rus sia, Osman kept his flag flying for 142 days. inflicting a loss of 40,000 men on the enemy and losing 30,000 of his own garrison. It was only when both provisions and ammunition failed that he decided on that desperate attempt to cut his way through the investing army. The attempt, one of the most daring and resolute in history, failed, and Osman wa~s at last compelled to admIt defeat.

On one occasion Handel was caught in a shower of rain and, being unpro vided with an umbrella, was obliged to reek shelter In a blacksmith's forge. Either Handel was in a silent mood or else the blacksmith showed no con versational symptoms, for In a little while the latter began hammering away at his anvil, accompanying his work with a song. He little thought the use his visitor was making of him and his anvil, for it is saId that Han del was listening all the time to the strokes of the hammering on the anvil, which, by producing two harmonic sounds, aceording in time and tune with the tune the man sang, formed a bass accompaniment. Handel, on reaching home, remembered the air and the hammer accompaniment. He wrote down both, and so we. owe to a shower of rain the composition known as "The Harmonious Black-smith." Charles Kean's Afflictions. Charles Kean, the actor, could not pronounce the consonants "in" and "n." In the first scene with Jarvis in -"The Gamester" he began by inquir ing, "Well, Jarvis, ;what says the world of me? I'll tell thee what it says. It calls me a false friend, a faithless hus band, a cruel father-In one short word, It calls me Galester!" In Shy lock he was wont to say: "You take by lIfe When do you take the beans whereby I live." But his most unfortunate slip oc curred in the last line of "Money," where Evelyn says that in order to en joy the good things of life we require "plenty of money " In this situation Keani always brought the curtain down wvith a roar by sarcastically re marking that the one thing necessary to cornplete their happiness is "plenty of putty!"

Un til then this punishment was Inflicted in open court, generally In the pres ence of the judge, generally in the presence of the judge. the necessary Implements-the iron brand, the chaf ing dish and the iron gripper for keep ing the hand steady-being always In readiness. The usual brand was an "R" applied to the left shoulder.

The Clemson-Winthrop Agricultural and Do mestic Science Train. Owing to circumstances oyer which we had no control the date of the starting of our train has been some what delayed and it is now planned to get it under way about the 5th of June, and arrive at Manning June 22nd. The people of this State should un derstand that while this train is plan ned and equipped by Winthrop and Clemson colleges yet had it not been for the hearty and liberal co-opera tion of the railroads of this State its operation would not have been pos sible. The three great systems of the State, the Southern, the Seaboard Air Line and the Atlantic Coast Line have from the very beginning met the proposition in the most cordial and liberal manner. Not only are they furnishing the equipment in 'the shape of cars for this train but they are also moving that train entirely free of charge. I think it but proper that this fact should be known as an evidence of the interest that these roads are taking in the welfare of the people of the State. Since the last notice of this train was given to the public another car has been added thereto by Winthrop college. This car will be filled with an exhibit of Household conneniences and should prove quite an attractiye and cf educational value. It has also been found possible to add more stock to the equipment of the Live Stock Car so this feature will be es pecially complete. The visit of this train should be of particular interest to the boys of the various corn clubs of the State and it s expected that they will turn out in force, therefore, special work along the line of corn judging and cultiva tion will be given by Prof. Napier and the train will also be accompan ied by Prof. C. B. Hadden who is now in charge of the Boys Corn Club work in this State, working under the joint direction of Clemson college and the U. S. Farm Demonstration Work. Miss Hyde, in charge of the Win throp, cars, will have a competent corps of assistants and has outlined an extremely interesting program for ladies who visit the train. It is hoped tliat everyone will real ize that it will' take the -full day to get the maximum of benefit from this train and that they will make it a point to reach it early. One day is all he time that can be alowed at a sin gle point and we want to urge all who can to be onJiand promptly so as to get the greatest benefit out of thetrain possible. Clemson College. S. C.

The island of Dominica is the home and natural habitat of the hercules bettle (Dynastes hercules., the very largest known species of the coleoptera or beetle family. Full grown speci mens of this gigantic representative of the hard winged bug family average six inches in length from the tip of their pincers to the termination of the wing covers. It has a long black horn growing out of a head wich is even darker than the horn itself. On its lower surface the horn is covered with a thick setting of gold colored bristles. which the entomologists say are used by the insect in capturing Its prey. Another and shorter but more power ful horn grows out from beneath, the two forming a powerful pair of pin cers. The creature has six powerful legs, each armed with claws. The elytra or wing covers are of a dapple gray color and the underparts of the body black. Takren all together, It Is a formidable creature, with strength sufficient to catch and hold a bird of the size of the English sparrow.

The shopattend ant turned to get them. The man did not move; but, as it happened. there was a mirror in the opposite wall be hind the counter, put there for the special purpose of detecting thieves. In this the attendant saw a tiny brown head poked out of the customer's pock et; then a long, thin, spidery arm flash ed out, seized two rings and vanished.

The music of "The Lost Chord" was composed under mnost touching condi tions. Arthur Sullivan was watching by the bed of his dying brother, Fred erick. One night shortly before death the invalid sank Into a peaceful sirm ber. Arthur, who attended his broth er day and night, took the oppor tunity to read, and It happened that his eyes fell on Adelaide Anne Proc ter's poem, "The Lost Chord." The verses Impressed him greatly, and mu sic appropriate to them suggested It self to his mind. Taking a sheet of music paper, he began to write, and so absorbed was lhe in his task that he sat hour after hour working at It until the song was completed. -Probably the acute emotional conditions under which the music was composed ac count largely for the power to touch the emotion~s which undoubtedly "The Lost Chord" possesses.-George Leon Varney in National Magazine.

"It is not the general custom on the Quest-Etat to avoid ac cidents," he said, "but I will ask the director to see what. can be done." The express arrived safely without the smallest mishap, but six hours and a half late, during all which timo the Russian prmece's secretary had been waiting on the platform.
