In tho Government of Ivied, Kassia,

A kind-hearted woman at La Crosse,

Hibernating Alligators.
The other day Mr. Sim Howlei, who
li ve - in Mitchell County, Ga., wv walk
ing around his mill-pond, which is sit
uated at thc forks of two creeks. In his
percgeriations he came across a cave.
Leading from it through the earth wa?
apparently a large burrow. Ho obtained
a pole nnd began investigating. The
cave and burrow extended somo twenty
feet. He dug into it, and between five
or six feet beneath the surface he, came
to seven alligators. They were large,
old rusty fellows, ranging from four to
ten feet in length.
They were sound asleep, enjoying
their winter nap in accordance, with the
queer habit of t lie ie hibernating saurians.
They were promptly dispatched. There
is an old belief, that when the alligators
find tho winter approaching they gobble
down a number of plue knots to fill, up
their aching void-., and then take their
lengthy siesta. Mr. Bowles thought
this would be a good opportunity to teat
thia belief, and accordingly on? of the
reptiles waa out open. Within it wa*
several lightwood knots, and now Mr.
Bowles la ready to testily to the truth of
thia theory as to the capacity of. the alli
gator for digesting tho knots of the pine
while slumbering through the winter
months.-Atlanta Comtitution.

WISE WORDS.
A sharp point is whoro the sonso of

Imagination will do for a change, but
only lun?tica depend upon it.
Shabby originality is better than a
brilliant display of borrowed ideas.
Tho only thing that still astonishes
one is that pooplo are still astonished at
anything.
No ono neod to hesitate about what to
bo when honesty is always ready to be
embraced.
People who discover they are reading
something very simple should realize
that vanity is displayed by critical talent.
Happiness is moro frequently found
among peoplo who havo tact than among
I those who havo good hearts and mean
well.
Ask a favor from your enemy and you

Audacity of a Rat.
Pittsburg, like other cities, has it?
rats. Whether Pittsburg has more than
ita share in proportion to population and
territory is a question for social statisti
cians to determine. Whether, too, tho
rata of the Oas City differ from tho rod
ente of other villages is not known, but
ono was discovered tho other day that
had the courage of its convictions.
A man was wending his way thc other
night through tho court yard in tho rear
of tho Sovonth Avenue Hotel toward
Smithfield street. Ho felt something
dart at him and catch hold of tho end of
his trousers about the heels. Whatcvei
it was it clung to him with a tight grip,
and looking down he saw it was a large
rat. With a violent kick ho slammed
tho animal across thc court yard against
an ash barrel. It rolled over apparontlv
lifeless, but it soon recovered and rc;
newed tho attack. The audacity of. the
rodent U'C^t'f'r: ?ts opponent, and tin
ve? to ?nc case beat a hasty retreat.

Acquiring: Personal Grace.
Ono of tho best-known teachers ol
physical culture and oratory in tho city
tells of a certain prominent divine who
recently carno to him for instruction in
thc art of prayer. Tho prayers wore
carefully discussed from tin: oratorical
and dramatic standpoint, nod tho clergy
man asked for frequent rehearsals until
he was satisfied that each phraso waa
mado to carry its utmost weight of elo
quence. Lesions wero then takon up in
the art of posturing, of genuflection and,
above all, tho divino asked that special I
atteution be given to tho art of making
thc sign of the cross in tho most graceful
j manner possible.
"Nor was this a novitiate in orders,"
said the teacher, "but a middle-aged and
successful clergyman, who had simply
como tn the conclusion that personal
grace and eflcctive oratory aro more es
sential to-day than simple devotion."

The Emperor's Decoration.
A romantic story attaches to the new
decoration announced by the Emperor of
.hipan in commemoration of Emperor
Jimmu's coronation, 2f?50 years ago. Thc
distinguishing feature of the decoration
is a golden tish hawk. Thc legend is
that dui in ; Jimtnu's conquest of eastern
Japan thc aky mu day became suddenly
dark, and r. fish hawk of golden hue
settled on thc Emperor's crossbow. The
bird threw off a brilliant light, by which
the enemy were dazzled and thc Emperor'a
forces wero victorious.

Funeral of n Burmese Queen.
The Rangoon (India) Gazette reports
tho burial reccutly of the Mcebya Queen, ;
ono of tho wives of Kiug Mindona Miu,
whoso body had been lying some time in
state at thc residence of her daughter,
near Raugoon. About 9 o'clock the pro
cession, which was nearly a mile long,
started. White umbrellas, tho special j
symbol of Burmese royalty, were numer
ous, and tho priests mustered in strong |
force. The shrines and other ornamental
structures were ablaze with gold leaf, thc |
bands of music numerous, and tho cart- j
loads of presents for tho priests would
have sufficed to stock a bazaar with al
most every conceivable article of food
and wearing apparel, beside crockery,
kerosene oil, fans and furniture. The
Princess, a? chief mourner, walked ir.
front of thc coffin, preceded by her roth
nuo of fifty white robed women walking
in pairs; beforo them girls strewed tho
path with roses. Tho Princess, like hei
attendants, was dressed in pure white,
and wore no jewels whatever. She and
her maids of honor bore in their hands
the white rope attached to thc coffin. .
Tho latter was slung from a pole anil ?
carried by bearers. Over it was thrown 1
a splendidly decorated pall, piled high
with bright flowers. The scene of the
cremation was on thc slope of the Shcay
Dagon Pagoda, near Dalian, where an
inclosuro had been erected round th*
funeral pile, upon which thc gilt coffin
was laid to thc sound of weird music.
By desire of tho Princess tho coffin wa.?
opened to enable her to tako a last look
at her mother. The pile was then set fire,
and after the body had been entirely
consumed thc ashes were taken away to
be cast on thc broad bosom oh the Irra
waddy.
