Mean men have said that women should be the world's foremost; lin guists, as they certainly have the gift of tongues. Elisabeth Colton. of Bos ton, has turned that sarcasm Into a compliment, for she Is credited with a knowledge of fifty-four, languages For many years she has given especial attention to India, and it is said she Is able to converse with all -ths divisions of natives In their diversity of tongues She Is deeply Interested In the women of, that country, and Is hopeful there will be a great improvement in their condition soon. As a rule the student of the women of India Is a confirmed pttslmlsV but Miss -Colton tends to optimism. She 'finds the women are beginning to realise advancement de pends almost entirely upon their own Iclatlve. They ars grasping opportunities-to enter schools and show a greater aptitude for learning than the men of that country. J, ' '.

Is the special virtue of China and Japan. From It springs loyalty to the emper-o.-. who is regarded as "the father and mother of his people." There are no greater favorites with the Japanese than the "four and twenty paragons of filial piety," whose acts of virtue ara the subjects of Chinese legend. One of the paragons had a cruel stepmother, who was very forfU of fish. Never repining at her cruel treatment of him, lie lay dowji on the frozen surface of a lake. The warmth of his body melted a hole in the ice, at whidh two carp came up to breathe. These he caught and took home to his srtepmother. Another paragon, who was of the female sex, clung to the Jaws of a ti ger that was about to devour her fa ther untlll the latter escaped. The drollest of, all these stories is that of Rorashl. This paragon, though seventy years old, used to dress in baby's clothes and crawl about on the floor, his object being to delude his parents, who were really oyer ninety yeare of age. Into ths idea that they could not be so very old, after all, as they bad such an exceedingly infantile sou. Monkey a Shoplifter. Paris correspondence Chicago Inter Ocean. One of the most singular captures ever effected by the Paris police was made when they took into custody an acrobat named Miguel Androval, who is attached to a traveling circus in the outeklrts of the city. It htM been remarked that Andro val -went constantly shopping in Parts, without, however, making any pur chases. He was suspected of being a thief, and finally two detectives were told to watch him. In a large establishment the man requested to be shown some Jewelry. While he was examining it the detec tives observed the head of a tiny mon key emerge from Androval's coat pocket. Then the monkey's paw shot out, and while the shopman's atten tion was diverted the animal eelsed several valuable rings and withdrew to its hiding place, its owner then remarked that he did not see any thing Which suited him end left In a shop a few yards further on he was shown a variety of costly lace. The 4rick was repeated. The monkey snatched a piece of lace and dived Into Ai.-droval's pocket The detectives immediately placed the acrobat under arrest Lands a 400-Pound Fish. Spokane correspondence Chicago In ter-Ocean. Four sturgeon, the largest being 10 feet t Inches in length and weighing 409 pounds, were caught by Gustave Patten. Frank Vincent and 8- C. Wamsley. of Ilo, Idaho, in Snake river, near the mouth of Red Bird reek. southeast of Spokane. A twoi horse team was required to haul the' 1.110-pound catch to town. The men used 00 feet of heavy rope as a line, the rod being a tree. A steel foook waa baited with a large eel and weighted with 20 pounds of lead. To permit the fish to play on the line the shore end was fastened to a tree, which swayed with every move mint of the sturgeon tn their endeav. orsto get away. Ths fishermen say they had the most difficulty in landing the smallest fish, which Vas tlx test in length and weighed 200 pounds, , It fought and lashed the water for almost an hour before it was brought to the river bsnlsr These sre the largest fish caught in the Snake river this season, where students of Issak Walton have bees busy for months.

Mr. James was absent from home snd Mrs. James and children were at Cspt John Anderson's where the sccldent occurred. The children were playing tn ths yard when the boy stumbled over stick of wood, pitching for ward into , the boiling pot, both hands and arms to above the elbows, which were badly burned.

The queen had remained inactive during ths conflict and had taken part la cleaning up" the nest. When ail was again In order a worker ant ap proached her and after a short antennas conversation began to tug at her wings. Apparently this was to give' her royal sister to understand that she must now discard them and assume the responsibilities of egg-lay. lng. ths work for which she had been most carefully reared. The young queen was not inclined to give up her gauzy appendages,, however, so presently the worker re-' sumed her efforts to loosen them, but with no show of animosity. Falling to accomplish her purpose, she next caught the queen by the antennas and led her gently about the nest and then held her In a corner for at least 20 minutes. During this time the other ants came and touched her caressingly with their antennae, and one went so far as to offer her food from - Its mouth. It was a cleat- case of coax Inv They wanted this queen mother to deposit eggs snd found a new col ony. I do not know what arguments finally overcame the queen's reluctance to give up ber freedom. The next day I saw that she had yielded to the entreaties of her sisters She was wingless and depositing very minute eggs. The black ants have what appears to be good-natured wrestling matches among themselves. They are con stantly on the move doing something, carrying the unwieldy cocoons from one place to another, regurgitating food for a companion or making elab orate toilets. UNDERGROUND BANQUET. How tlte Founding of the LeadvUIe Mining Camp Was Celebrated. Baltimore American. "On the first day of the present month I was a guest at one of the most remarkable dinners ever given," "remarked Judge A W. Rucker. the brand new Congressman from Denver. "This banquet was held 1,000 feet below the surface of the earth in the chamber of a mine on the outskirts of Leadvllle. The chamber, which had been transformed Into a magnifi cent dining room, was about 40 feet wide by 70 feet long and had a lofty roof. A kitchen had been Improvised and a clever chief got up a dinner tor 200 people that none of the swell hotels of New York would have re pudiated. The guests were nearly all 'seventy-nlners,' that Is to say, pioneers In the old days of 1871, when Leadvllle'a fame as a greater pro ducer of the precious metals attracted the attention of ths world. "This feast was given in com memoration of the birth of the min ing camp, and those who made nrterry the adventurous souls who figured then. "On the day of the function we rode to the mouth of the tunnel, where we made our descent Into the bowels of the earth through a tierce blizzard, one of the worst I ever saw tn the West. Getting In the big cage that took us down the-shaft to this queer banquet hall far below Lead vllle and the surrounding towns, we landed in a brilliantly lighted room that was as inviting and serene as a tropical isle. The contrast between It and the storm through which the party had come was curious tn the extreme, but It added greatly to ths joyousness of the occasion. Municipal Cleanliness. Springfield Union. The street commissioner or New York says: "Some day the people are going to wake up, and things won't be thrown in the street" But things will be thrown in the street in every city Just so long as cities do not pro vide receptacles at convenient places to receive tjhe stuff. Waste cans on the curbing do not appeal to one's esthetic taste, but they serve a very useful purpose, as Berlin and other progressive European cities have found out They keep a considerable quantity of waste paper, fruit skins ami other things from littering up the streets. Some American cities pro vide these waste cans, and It Is sur prising the amount of rubbish they ccflect tn the course of a day that oth erwise would have been thrown Into erwise wouia nave oeen inrown imo the strset to make additional work for the sweepers In Berlin they have perfected a system of collect ing the rubbish In these cans so as not to strew H along the street as Is some times done with tha scavenger wagons la use In Springfield and other places, la Berlin covered carts empty the con tents automatically and prevent the contents being thrown about. And this Is only one of many things that European cities do better than Amer ican cities, yet over there they do not boast of their, wonderful progresslve r.eca. We ars Just beginning to learn some Important lessons in re gard te municipal cleanliness. "Wlde-Awake" Watchman. AshevUle Citizen. ' Two "yeggmen" escaped from the county Jail at Greenville, 8. c, by blasting a hole through the stone floor and escaping into the apartments below, occupied by the jailer and thence to the street And the funny part about It Is that as they were recognised ss an especially desperate pair a special guard was set over them to wateh night and day to prevent their escape. This watchmen was, or was supposed to be, lp the corridor near their door, yet the prisoners blasted their way out and he didn't know they were gone until the next morning. Neither did the jailer hear any unusual noise, but-th'en the jailer was asleep. How that wide-awake watchman could let them give him, the slip In that manner Is hard to 'un derstand. It couldn't have happened in North Carolina. " Those Sosth Carolina Editors. Wilmington Star.

New York World, There was a firs la the cellar of a big tenement No. lit West Twenty, fifth street' last night hut- that has little to do with the story. It serves only to introduce one large black cat. four very small black kittens, a tender-hearted battallton chief, and two sympathetic firemen. . The firemen were pumping- water Into ths cellar, when the big black cat rubbed against the leg ot a firs man and "me-owed." The ftretnsa. shaved her away, she went to another fire man anvKrecelved the same trestmsnt Finally she rubbed up against Bstal lon Chief Langford. He noticed that after each 'tme-ow" she would walk off tn ths direction of No. 1(1 West Twenty-fifth street on the . ground floor of which was a butcher shop. "Seems to me thst cat has some thing on her mind." he said. "Acts as if she wanted ma to follow her," Ths chief followed the cat . In frost of lit she raised herself a a level with the window of ths butcher shop and gaged In, making; piteous cries. Langford peered in and saw Strange coloring of a Water Una ire, nestling In the window four black kit tens. - . - "Well, here's a chance to save some lives, snyhow." said, ths chief. He ordered Firemen Wlttemeyer and Bol linger to break open the door. The cat, scrambled inside, leaped upon the window ledge and carried one of .he kittens to ths sidewalk. Langford gathered up the other three and laid them down beside kitten No. 1. The kittens were gasping and almost suf focated. Ths chief sent a fireman for warm milk. While the kittens were coming back to life the mother cat rubbed against Langford's boots and purred her gratitude. Later, the kit tens were taken into a neighboring doorway, the blase was drowned out, and the sympathetic firemen departs!. Hawkstow tn Real Life. Watauga Democrat There Is quite an interesting little Jetective story going the rounds lit Watauga Just now. In short, It is this: Some time since a man by the name of Jones, In very poor attire cams into the western part of the county, and after a short courtship was mar ried to a Trlvett woman on Rich mountain.

Perhaps he Is being held on the Nebraska farm awaiting the campaign of 1212 to be again of fered to the county or township which will give Bryan the biggest vote.

The foods we eat furnish energy for the body Just as burning coal makes steam for an engine. The' experiments of Prof. Frankland, Ph.
