CAST OFF FROM A WRECK. Tailless Cats Which Founded a Community ! on the New Jersey Coast. ; Long Beach, the narrow strip of sand seven miles from the mainland on iwhich the village of Beach Haven, N. J., stands, contains the only tribe of tailless cats in- the United States. These cats were not detailed, says a correspondent of the St. Louis Globc ,'Democrat. They were born without itails. Early in this century a large English brig was wrecked on - that Ipart of the Jersey coast. She became ia total wreck, but the sailors' lives were saved, and so were the lives of a jlot of cats. These felines came from the Isle of Man and belonged to a curious breed found, only on that ! island known as Manx cats. At first ithe animals were quite tame, and fre quented the vicinity of the lighthouse, ;where they nightly held open-air con certs that were not harmonious enough 'to rriArit. t.hft armreciation of the jlightkeepers,' and ultimately resulted In their being driven away. The !f elines took to the woods and managed "to subsist during the first winter on birds, thousands of which lived in the swamps. The cats increased rap idly : in number, - and in a :few. years small pack's of them could be found almost anywhere in Barnegat's woods. Their outdoor life made them savage, and the breed seems to have increased in both size and courage, for eventually they be came so fierce that they would stand and show fight toward anyone who in vaded their homes. They are curious looking creatures. The front legs be ing shorter than their hind legs causes' , them to make big jumps as they go about, yet it is said they can easily out run an ordinary dog. The eats make good fishers, and when fish are plenti ful they go along the beach, and, as the breakers run up on- the shore, car rying with them small butter-fish, mul lets and silver bait, they jump into the shallow water and with their sharp claws pin a fish to the sand and the outgoing wave leaves their prey ex posed. Then, before another breaker can roll in, they catch the fish and take it up on the dry beach and devour ,it. At times dozens of these strange looking cats can be seen on the beach making meals off the surf clams that are cast up by the tide. For the past twenty or thirty years Long iBeach has 'been a famous summer resort. Many of the cats have been killed by tourists or frightened back into the swamps. .Occasionally some humane visitor en deavors to tame one of the animals. It is hard work, but when the effort is successful there is no more domestic .or affectionate pet than a Manx cat. WHISKY TRULY SANCTIFIED. A Flask Is Wallpd Up in a Kew Jersey Church. Thedistinction of having a quart flask of whisky walled up in the structure belongs to the Sacred Heart church of this city, says a New Bruns wick special to the New York Sun. Al though the church has been built for over ten years, this was not generally known until recently. Ten years ago last October the corner stone of the church was laid, and the work of building the edifice was pushed as rap idly as possible, so that lefore the dawn of the new year the walls were up to the first story. The cold was in tense at this time, and some of the masons' employed on the building ac quired the habit of depending upon stimulants to keep their blood in circu lation. Consequently a large quart flask was brought into requisition, and frequent trips were made from time to time to a hotel to keep it filled with the enlivening fluid. The men had their whisky with great regular ity until an incident occurred unex pectedly one day that upset their cal culations for the time being. The flask had just been replenished, and the men were making ready to en joy it, when they were startled by the sudden appearance of Father Mulligan in company with several other ecclesi astics, who had come to make an in spection of the progress of the work. The man who had the flask happened tabe quick-witted, or the secret would have been out. 'Without a moment's hesitation he quickly stowed the Cask in between the inner and outer walls, while the other men went on with their work, consoling themselves with the thought of the good cheer that awaited them when the visitors de parted. They reckoned iu vain. Father Mulligan and his friends re mained close to where the men were working for a long time. Although the wall was gradually inclosing the precious whisky bottle, the masons did not dare stop work for fear of exciting suspicions. r When the party finally took its de parture, to their di.imay the masons found that the flask was out of sight, and all efforts to get it were unavail ing. They did not dare tear the wall down to get it, so the whisky remained in the wall, and the filling of cement Bealed it securely. - The men who were engaged in erect ing the building lived out of town, and the story of the flask was recalled sev eral days ago, when one of the men, who was" visiting this city, went to the church to . attend service, and thus had the incident brought to his memory. He It timid the Business. American temperance agitators would not enjoy .themselves in Austria. jC native of a small village, after a long cataleptic trance, a year ago, declared that he had been to liearen and had been commissioned by the Almighty to return and teach the peasants'the wickedness of drinking spirits. Soon the entire village took an oa'th of total abstinence. The district governor com mitted the man to the madhouse, where the doctors kept him for six months and then declared him sane, lie re sumed his agitation and in a short time seven villages had taken vows of abstinence. The result was that a num ber of liquor dealers to whom the gov ernment had granted licenses refused to keep their ecu tracts. The district judge gave orders hat the dangerous agitater be arretted if caught preach ing abstinence. Don't Delay. It is your duty to yourself to get rid of the foul accumulation in your blood this spring. Hood's Sarsa parilla is just the medicine you need to purify, vitalize, and enrich your blood. That tired feeling which ef fects nearly every one in the spring is driven off by Hood's Sarsaparilla, the great spring medicine and blood purifier. Hood's Pills have become the favorite cathartic with everyone who tries them. An exchange says: "Speak no evil of the absent; that is cowardly. Likewise, speak no evil of the pres ent ; you might get licked." BROWN ' S IRON LITTERS ' cures Dyspepsia, In digestion & Debility. FROM FARM TO BARROOM. Tne Journey and Gradual Increase In Price of a Bushel of Corn. ' Illinois is the great corn state and Teoria is the center of its most prolific 1 A belt. Peoria is a great grain mar-net and especially for corn. Vast quanti- j ties of the golden grain are shipped . into that city for general distribution ; and loaded into its mammoth eleva- tors by the hundreds of thousands of i bushels. A great deal of corn is shipped ( from Peoria, but a vast quantify Js , used thure. There is more corn used in Peoria than in any three cities in ( the union, even though these cities be j New York, Philadelphia and Chicago. The reason is obvious, says the Peoria j Herald. Peoria is not only the center j of the great distilling interests, but there are located two of the greatest sugar houses in the country. Down the capacious maws of the great dis-j tilleries are poured every day 20,000 j bushels of corn. The sugar houses j use from 5,000 to 10,000 bushels more each day in the year. To supply the . constant demand the product of 1,000 i acres of rich corn la nds is daily shipped j into Peoria for home consumption, j Aside from these there are fully 5,000 bushels used daily for other purposes. So that it is safe to estimate that fully 9,000,000 bushels of corn are used in that city annually for manufacturing and other purposes. The greater part of this is manufactured into spirits. It is wonderful to consider the changes made by a bushel of corn in its transition from the owner s crib to the glass of the consumer. These changes are various and far reaching. They are other than financial. But consider simply the mere element of value. Corn was sold the other day in Peoria for 35 cents per bushel; It came all the way from Nebraska, perhaps, where it brought but 25 cent's. In transit two dealers received a commis sion of 1 cent each. The railroad -company received 8 cents for its freight and other charges. The distiller paid 85 cents. lie took and converted it into four and a half gallons of finished spirits and fed one of his steers on the refuse. The distiller sold the spirits to a local dealer for $5.13, of which Uncle Sam received S-t.05 as a tax on the spir its, leaving a balance to the distiller of 4 73 cents after he had paid 35 cents for his corn.' The spirits, after being well watered and compounded, are sold at a profit by the compounder and rectifier to the dealer, who sells out at 15 cents a drink. The four and one-half gal lons have swelled to nine, and before it gets through it swells many a head and also the revenue of the city where its lines may be cast: So that, in its travels from the Nebraska crib to the Chicago saloon, that bushel of corn has increased in value from 25 cents to many dollars, and with its constant running mates has furnished employ ment to at least to fifty men or more and has contributed to both the nation .al and' municipal revenues. Such magic there is in the juice of the golden corn. Of the juice of that one bushel of corn, at least 100 persons have im bibed, from the pious old lady who took it for "la grippe" to the jolly old toper who took it for "the tight." To resume, that bushel of corn was thus scattered on the highways of busi ness and pleasure: Farmer, 25 cents; railroads, 8S cents; commission men, 2 cents; distillers, 72 cents, 72 cents; feeder, 10 cents; Uncle Sam, 4.05; compounder and rectifier, 25 cents; re tail dealer, 810; city, S3. The con sumer got whatever was left in the spirits, each according to his strength or weakness. CAPABLE OF GREAT EXPANSION. The Swell Toad Not Naturally Big How to Have Fun with Him. What is called the "swell" toad on the Carolina and Georgia coast is in his natural state only about six inches in length and four inches across the back, but he is endowed with wonderful ex pansive facilities, being capable of in flating himself like a Yale football on the slightest provocation. Many tales are told of his poisonous qualities and of the death-dealing fluids that are stored away at the base of his fangs, but all naturalists agree that the toad is nonvenomous, and that stories to the contrary are but bits of idle folk lore. Be this as it may, the coasters handle him (when they condescend to touch the ugly creatures at all) as charily as they would a live rattler. The under portions of the body of tho "swell" are of a dirty yellowish white, corresponding almost i exactly to the eolor of the true bufo's belly, but where the latter is smooth the former is as prickly as the pod of a "jimson weed." In order to see him swell out of all proportions it is only necessary to rub this prickly surface with a'cane, stick or other object. To do this prop erly the creature must, of course, be turned upon his back, and the funny part of the whole experiment is this: He cannot expel the air which the ir ritation has caused him to inhale until he has been turned right side up. Al though originally a six-inch animal, the St. Louis Republic says it has been known, to expand until it is' as tight as a drum and had lost all semblance to animated life.. It has even been re lated of them that they would con tinue to expand nnder irritation until the body would finally burst from over inflation. The Greatest Pyramid. The great pyramid of Gizeh isfh'e largest structure of any kind ever erected by the hand of man. Its origi inal dimensions at the base were 704 feet square, and its perpendicular ncignt in tne Highest point is 4S8 feet; it covers four acres, one rood and twenty-two perches of ground, and has been estimated by an eminent English architect to have cost not less than 30,000,000, which in United States cur rency would be about S145.200.000. Tr, ternal evidences proved that the great pyramm was begun about the year 270 Is. C, about the time of the birth of Abraham. It is estimated that about 5.000,000 tons of hewn stone were used in its . construction, and the evideuce points to the fact that these stones were brought a,di:.ta!K-e of about 700 miles from ouarrio? !n a jI-.j.

"Without dogs the larger portion of the great Eskimo family peopling the barren northern coast of America would find it impossible to exist in its chosen home." So writes E. W. Nel son in his "Mammals of Northern Alaska," They are used in the winter for hunting, sledge-drsiwing and the like, but in summer are mostly left to shift for themselves. They receive much hard usage, as well as do much hard work, but are described, never theless, as a rollicking set, full of play, fond of human society and quar relsome as schoolboys. Mr. Nelson credits them with a vein of humor and declares that their varying character istics can be read in their faces. They are worth from two dollars to fifteen dollars apiece, according to age, size and intelligence. For sledge-drawing they are harnessed in teams of either seven or nine three or four pairs and a leader. The load is from three hun dred and fifty to-seven hundred pounds and the course is mainly through un broken snow or over rough ice. With a team of seven dogs and a load of more than three hundred pounds Mr. Nelson made a journey of more than twelve hundred miles in about two months. The last sixty miles were made, over a bad road in a continuous pull of twenty-one hours. They are much af fected by the moon. During full moon half the night is spent by them in howling in chorus. "During the entire winter at St. Michael's," says Mr. Nel son, "we were invariably given a chorus every moonlight night, and the dogs of two neighboring villages joined in the serenade." He speaks of its "wild, weird harmony," and seems to have found it agreeable rather than other wise. The influence of the moon is also very apparent when the dogs are traveling. They brighten up as the moon rises, and pricking up their cars start off as if they had forgotten their fatigue. The fur traders take advan tage of this fact, and sometimes lie over during the day and travel at night. The dogs endure an astonish ing degree of cold. Mr. Nelson saw a female with two newly-born puppies lying upon the snow near a hut, with no sign of shelter, when the thermom eter ranged from thirty to thirty-five degrees below zero. OBEYED ORDERS STRICTLY. How a Collector Secured a Six Weeks Holiday and a Partnership. "When I was a youngster of seven teen," said a successful business man to a Detroit Free Press reporter, "I got a job as collector with a man who was about as strict a martinet as I eve- saw. He insisted on everything being done just as he said, and there were times when life was verily a burden, but I stuck to him for six months, then we had a difference. It was this way: One morning he called me up and handed me a bill on a man I knew and said for me to take it around and col lect it. " 'It's one of our standbys,' he said, 'and every collector I ever sent to him reported him absent or not findable or something. Xow you go and don't come back here till you see him. " 'Do you mean that?"' I asked, as two or three clerks looked up. " 'You know me,' was all he said in reply and I went out after my man. "He wasn't at home, the people said, and wouldn't be for six weeks. So I stuck the bill in my pocket and went oil up the country on a visit. The old man sent after me half a dozen times, but my folks could only tell I was out of town, and I never paid any atten tion to a letter I got from the boss, but went on enjoying myself. Then I came back and had a visit -with some othef friends and at the end of six weeks I called on my man again with the bill. I found him at home and told hirrr what I had done, and he paralyzed me by paying the bill with interest. Two hours later I stepped into the boss' ofiice. "'There,' I said, before he had time to gather his wits, 'is the amount of your bill and interest. He was out of town for six weeks and I -couldn't see him before. You told me not to come back till I did see him, and I was obey ing your instructions. I had a rattling good time and the house owes me six weeks' salary.' '; "The old man gasped, got blue in the face and I thought he was going to ex plode, but he didn't; lie gulped it all down and stuck out his hand. " 'Young man,' he said, 'you ought to have been a soldier; I'm going to put .you in charge of the collection de partment and double your salary, and,' concluded the merchant, 'when I was twenty-five I was a partner. A tihoulish Ilaaher.v. In Brussels there is a restaurant en titled the Cafe de la Mort, the walls of the subterranean chamber being hung with paintings of skulls, skeletons and crossbones, the chairs are stools, the tables coffins and the beverage, which costs six cents a glass, is called "mi crobes." A performance takes place nightly in an adjoining vault. On the black curtain rising a man is disclosed standing upright in a cofBn.' As the assemblage watches, his white bones are gradually seen to shine forth through his ciothes'until he becomes a grizzly skeleton. A death certificate is then presented to the principal aetof in tliis optical illusion and the perform ance closes. How Swimmer Drown. The Northwestern' Lancet offers a new explanation of the sudden drown ing of good swimmers, hitherto attrib uted, to cramp. Thejre is nothing in a cramp in the leg to prevent an ordinary swimmer supporting himself in the water by his hands or on his back, nor to cause him to throw up his hands and sink once for all, like a stone. Such cases are attributed to perfora tion of the eardrum, through which the excess of water pressure occasions vertigo and unconsciousness, and a practical caution results to persons having such perforation to protect their , rs with a stopper of cotton when baft- They aJl Testify To tha Efficacy ofiha Wcrld'Rencwned Swifi's ifTOno forth to the nr.tirwlna 3 confounding tho theories cf tfS pnyslclan'3 EkUL There la no blood craaicate.
