When Jnck.ion Dined!
' \ ' While the dinner hour still clings to
the nooutlruc ninoug country people it
has advanced in the cities until now it
occurs at any time between noon and
midnight. And that reminds us, says
the Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser, of
oue of the many stories about Colonel
Davy Crockett. While he was a member
of congress and was at ids home in
Tennessee some one asked liiin about
the dinner hour in Wusldngton. He
said the common people ate dinner at
12, the next nbove them at 1, the merchants
at 2.'the representatives at 3.
, ihe senator! (ft 4, members of the cabi?
net nt ft and tbe vice president nt 0.
"But when do-.s the president dine?"
"What! Old Hickory*:" said Crockett.
. anxious to fix n time that would suit
bis idea of Jackson's grcntucss. "Well,
he don't cat till next day!"
Women In Pnrln Street*.
It Is quite a feature of Paris to see
Streams of open carriages, privato and
hired, taking folks for an after dinner
drive along the grand boulevards,
Which -are thronged with proinenaders
and groups of people sitting outside
cafes-talking. Now and again a carriage
will stop to deposit its burden in
front of a cafe aud return later, cither
to this or another to'which its occupants
lmve migrated.

THE BALKY HORSE. l *,

For the benefit of those who have ,
boo t enured a great deal of anxiety by v
a balky horse. Inst trains as well as ^
tempers and sometimes even ruined |
the l.jise, the ne::t time they have the
experience to ru.i across a balky horse, 8

out of a hundred. (1

head a moment. Take a hammer or c
even pl?k up a stone In the street, f
tell the driver to sit still, take his lines, ^

must keep his lines taut and not pull ^

If I hare tried this once, I have tried i
it COO times, and every time I have j
suggested it poople*hnve laughed and 6
even bet ?C and bottles of wine that I
could not do it. Ro far I have won every
bet. This may make you smile, but
a horse lias more common sense than t
most people are willing to give him 1
credit for. The secret of this little trick t
is simply diversion. I am a firm believ- e

The Little Flutter Noll. (
Forty years ago in certain parts of I
the United States it was the custom to i
grow long nails. I well remember 3
some of the swells and puffers who 1
aooica more nucnuou 10 men* tiluc f
linger nnils than th^y did to their 1
teeth, and often have I seen the lifth t
digit with a claw on it an inch and a i
quarter in length. The nail was car- 1
ried in a stall, and on occasion was
split nf'.er the manner of a steel or
quill pen, so that its wearer could sign
his name to a check with it, says a
writer in the New York Press. The i

Where Women I'roponc.
In the Ukraine, Russia, the woman
Iocs all the courting. When she falls
u love with a man, she goes to his
souse and informs him of the state of
icr feelings. If he reciprocates, all is
veil, and the formal marriage Is duly
irranged. If, however, he Is unwillr.g,
she remains there, hoping to coax
dm to a better miml. The poor fellow
'aunot treat her with the least disourtesy,
nor lias he the consolation of
icing able to turn her out, as licr t
rlemls in such a case would feel bound ^
o avenge the Insult, ins remedy, {
lierefore, if determined not to marry
icr, Is to leave his home and stay away ,
s long as she is In It. A similar prac- . j
ice to that in the Ukraine exists among

PATH OF OCEAN CABLES. '

Arvoxa (he Atlantic.
There seems to be no logical reason
why cables cannot be laid across any
section of the oceans of the world. m?
matter how great the depth. Some puslions
of the Atlantic cables arc tilts*
miles below the surface, and this Is not
necessarily the cxtiMue depth, for the
cable may and probably does pass
from the top of one submarine bill to
another without drooping materially
Into the deep vail ya between, says
Llpplncott's Magazine. The greatest
known dcptli cf the sea Is 4(l,(KU> feet,
or 7 :?o mil s, found in the1 south Atlantic
midway between the Islr.iwl of
Tristan da Cr.nha and the mouth of
the ttio do la Plata. Soundings bars
been made to the depth of ii7,4MO f?*
In the north Atlantic south of Newfoundland,
and about lll.oco feet, ar
nearly (P 1> miles, is reported south of
. t?
I in.: i.;-n.n;:;:;s. i*;vrn sur'a cuordlOm
depths as th so need nut hinder cable
laying so far sis the theory Is eonccrnril.
but in practice, for reasons of
econotay hi tnaint sain nee and otherwise,
it Is found Inst to take advantage
of favoring conditions in the
ocean's bed. To illustrate, all of the
ealiles between the t'nitcd States nnd
Europe run up along our coast until
they reach the neighborhood of Newfoundland
before starting across to
tlu ir destination in Ireland or Ernnce.
The reason for this is found in flh*
range of submarine tablelands, forming
an ideal cable bad, which lies between
the three latter countries.

The gnmest of salt water fish, nftcf
the striped bass, is the weakfish, or sen
trout. Tl:e sport of angling for thcia
is generally enhanced because, feeding
as they generally do near the surface.
It Is possible to fish for them with light
tackle. The best places to find them
in the vicinity of New York are Jamaica
bay, the southwestern shore of
Stateu Island and the mouth of tbo
Shrewsbury river. While they haro
been caught weighing upward of twenty
pounds, a six rr ten pounder Is a
good sb:e, and the average will only
run from one to two and a half. Tbero
is never any doubt when a weakfish
bites. lie dees not nibble around tho
book, but takes the bait at one fhflr
swoop and then starts o!T with it iiko
a limited express with time to rnnko

while fishing is the one who is apt to
