After the Rain. k
The declining sun shone suddenly and
brightly thro' the mist,
Like a sudden flash of memory; it
, seemed but to insist,
To show how the wet grass sparkled
r and how the ivy shaded tower.
The stream so dull and sullen, now
# smiled 'neath its leafy bower.
The little birds did twitter and chirp
so gleefully,
On the verdant hedge's branches that
dripped refreshingly.
A moment?and its glory no more
was to be seen
The light was all withdrawn, but
from the spring time's green
Arose a fragrant odor to tired man
and beast.
It seemed a benediction from God's
dear, kindly hand,
To His very own creation, the chief

SOME FAMOUS HOAXES.
Some l*ractical Jokes of an Earlier ll<
Age Than Ours.
Hoaxes exist in every profession
and walk of life; they flourish in ev- ar
ery age and clime; they ply their art
either as a means of livelihood or
from the sole desire to gull the cred- dz
ulous public. It was the latter which r0
incited that prince of practical jokers.
Theodore Hook, to perpetrate the b*
most audacious of all hoaxes, the Ber- m
ners street hoax, that for the time re
roused all London to laughter and in- in
dignation. Hook bet a guinea tnat a
certain modest dwelling in a quiet th
thoroughfare leading out* of Oxford ta
street would become the most notorious
house in town,and set about winning
his wager by addressing over a
thousand letters, containing orders
to tradesmen, with the request that tr
they would at a certain hour on a certain
day deliver their goods at a cer- th
tain house in Berners street. Besides th
the unfortunate shopkeepers, who fo
suffered much loss through damage 1)6
to their goods, others were* included w
in the "fun." The lord mayor, the
lord chief justice, the archbishop bf de
Canterbury and the commander-in- aE
chief were among the many victims
that fell into the trap, and, duly arriving
at the appointed spot, exper- or
ienced most unceremonious treat- to
ment amid the turbulent and exas- co
perated throng.
As the result of a bet between the th
Duke of Montague and Lord dies- on
terfield that the former would, by th
advertising an utterly impossible per- ea
formance, find fools enough to fill he
a playhouse, it was announced that *'1
on Januar\ 10, 1749, on the stage of is
the Haymarket Theatre, a person in
would get into a tavern quart bottle,
and while there sing several na
Bongs. On the evening appointed for' Bi
the accomplishment of this marvelous
feat the house was packed from W
Boor to ceiling, among the expectant a
audience being no less a personage of
than the Duke of Cumberland. For w<
a while all sat in patient silence, but. lis
on the curtain not rising, catcalls and m
whistles soon swelled to open riot, bt
Someone threw a lighted candle up- cii
on the stage and a general stampede tie
for that part of the house immediate- bl<
!v followed, and in the melee that to
jnsued the Duke of Cumberland lost Hi
tiis sword. tv
The papers, especially those of the
Jacobite party, made great fun of co
this affair, and in old England ap- de
oeared this burlesque advertisement, or
having reference to the Duke of wl
Cumberland's loss: "Found entangled pli
in the slit of a lady's demolished
smock petticoat, a gilt-handled sword
of martial temper and length, not
nuch the worse of wearing, with the
Spey curiously engraved on one side, Ri
md the Scheldt on the other; sup- or
posed to be taken from the fat sides or
pf a certain great general in his cr
hasty retreat from the battle of Bot- it
tie Noddles, in the Haymarket. Who- T1
sver has lost it may inquire for it th
it the sign of the Bird and Sinking as
Land, in Rotten row." lii
A hoax eqaully diverting, and with lu
ao harmful issue, was that originat- th
ing with Daly, the manager of the
Dublin Theatre, who wagered that us
within twenty-four hours he could in- w:
troduce a perfectly meaningless word tb
into the English language, to effect ns
which he chalked on every wall to m;
which he could gain access the four in
letters, QUIZ, which at once set er
all Dublin wondering as to their m
significance?wondering in vain, the b?
sole result of the general bewilder- th
ment being the calculation of a word Si
that has remained current till the re
present day. ' ai

that headed an article
in the New York Sun, giving account *-'
of an aerial voyage across the Atlantic.
Nearly everybody believed in the
preposterous statements, and the circulation
of "the sole paper that had Li
the news" increased by leaps, and es
and title of "The Baloon Hoax" is m
included among the tales of Edgar in
Allen Poe. if
The imposture of Charleston?too rc
well known to need retelling?was ai
surpassed in audacity by that of the
youth Ireland, whose Shakesperean
forgeries form the subject of Payn's ^
novel, "The Talk of the Town." In- p
cited by the almost universal acclaim =
with which some spurious signatures er
and minor documents of the poet sc
woro rofpiv-pd he had the hardihood n<
to "discover" some unpublished plays ki
by the master's hand, one of which, w;
"Voltigern." was produced by Sheri- cc
dan at Drury Lane. Its stilted bom- w
bast, however, disgusted and unde- fi(
ceived the critics and public, and o^
Ireland, finding his position no longer ta
tenable, made full confession of his fu
knavery. More extraordinary still th
was the hoax perpetrated in the fa
CASTE AMONG HOBOES.
eal Wanderers I>esj?ise "Bums and
Panhandlers."
"Mission stiffs, panhandlers, bums
id strikebreakers are not allowed.
2t out!"
Thus reads a neat pasteboard card
tngling in the window of a little
om on the first floor of 816 CallowU
street, Philadelphia. It is flanked
a card announcing the established
of a "Hobo Employment Buau,"
and urging every hobo to walk
and "join the union."
If the passerby 13 a bit dazed by
is apparently contradiction of invitions,
and if he wonders how the
mm" genus differs from the "hobo"
inus, he has only to walk in and inure
of Joe .Millar, who claims to
tve crossed the country on freight
ains more than one hundred times.
The hobo will always give someins
for lodging or meals while on
e road, and he has the most pround
contempt for the man who
tats his way from place to place
ithout working.
Bums, on the other hand are the
irelicts who strew the park benches .
id fill the workhouses.
Panhandlers are street beggars.
"Mission stiffs" are down-and-out- ,
\
s who won't work and are willing
exchange "conversion" for bread,
ffee, and a free bed.
"The hobo is the itinerant laborer,
e fellow who saws lumber in Maine
ie week and punches cattle in Texas ,
e next" says Joe Millar. "In the
,st the average public confuses the t
>bo with the tramp, but in the west,
here he obtained his nickname, he
often a welcome guest at the farm
harvesting time."
The hoboes of America, or if you
ust be dignified, the International
-otherhood Welfare association of
J
aempioyea, .Migratory auu uaauai
orkers, have organized to demand .
10-hour day and a minimum wage
15 cents an hour. They have a
?ekly journal. The Hobo News, pubihed
in Chicago, by August Schureyer.
They have an I. B. W. A.
itton, with the word "justice" enroled
by the name of the organiza>n.
The significance of the emem
is that justice fe the keynote
liberty. "Justice." comments the
3bo News, "is what we want; liberis
what we all prize."

^ Is Pie Vanishing?
This is the question asked by the
chmond Times-Dispatch. It depends ,
l what he calls pie. If he means
ie of those tough things, mostly
ust, and with a modicum of fruit,
ought to have vanished long ago.
len some housekeepers understand
e art of making tough pastry about ,
, hard to digest as rubber dumplgs.
That is not pie. It is the desion
and snare. It is an insult to

A HI MAX PEDIGREE BOOK.
Government May Establish Bureau
to Record Brides and Bridegrooms.
We have splendid new races of
horses, cows and pigs. Why should
we not have a new and improved1
race of men?
A century of breeding and training
has added 50 per cent, to the
efficiency of the trotting horse. The
same period has seen a grave degeneration
of the human race in the
most civilized countries.
A new species of hen has been developed
which lays 300 eggs a year.
The civilized human mother shows a
steady decrease of vitality which it
is plainful to consider.
These are a few of the interesting
facts and arguments used by Dr. J.
H. Kellogg in his address on eugenics
before the National Conference on
Race Betterment at Battle Creek,
Mich. Dr. Kellogg virtually pleaded
for a record book, stating the qualities
of human parents and the way
in which these qualities are preserved,
improved or lost from generation
to generation. This idea receives
the strong support of the many scientists
who wish to check the alarming
decrease of American vitality and the
degeneration of the human race in
the populous centres of America and
Western Europe.
The human pedigree hook would
be known as the Eugenics Registry
Office. Every man or woman intending
to marry would be able to turn
to the records of the office and ascertain
the pedigree of the life partner
:hat he or she thinks of taking. This [
is just what everybody now does be-1
fore buying an expensive horse, dog I
or cow.
The suggestion of a human pedigree
book may shock persons with
petrified 'taboo" notions concerning
marriage, but why, argues science
shouldn't we have as good a guarantee
with a husband or wife as with
a horse or dog? In time, it is argued,
every human being would be
proud to have his or her pedigree en
i r-\ t o Krvoir
ICICU ill 111V. /?/ /?.
The idea that the human race is
degenerating is naturally unpopular
with human beings, but it is strongly
supported by science. The evidences
of improvement in material
comfort and scientific knowledge are
so numerous that we imagine we are
progressing in every direction. As
a matter of fact, proof is accumulating
that the human race in the most
civilized countries is deteriorating.
The fact that the average length of
human life has more than doubled
in the last 200 years has been accepted
as showing that the vital stamina
of the race is improving. We have
now every reason to believe that this
apparent gain in longest}* is due
to the saving of many feeble lives in
infancy, while the length of life of
mature persons is decreasing, indicating
that the vitality of the race
is really failing.
Dr. Charles H. Ward, at the session
of the American Dental asso-1
ciation said that human teeth were j
degenerating. The evolutionists prophetic
visions of the coming man as a
bespectacled, bald-headed and edentulous
individual of infantile proportions,
but bulging head, appeared to
him not improbable. - Dr.
Scott Xearing, professor of eco
nomics in the University of Pennsylvania,
states that the native-born
population of the United States in
the year 1800-was doubling itself every
25 years. The continuance of
the ratio would have made the nativeborn
population 100,000,000 in 1900
and 800,000,000 by the year 2000.
As a matter of fact, the native-born
population in 1900 was only 41,000,000.
It has been demonstrated that
at the present rate of decrease the
birth rate will cease within a cencury,
and the American nation will no longer
exist.
