Easily Bottled Dispute Concerning Ownership of Hens. Magistrate Jormon onco spont a itiroincr In n llttlo town In South JcrHoy and made tho acquaintance of a Justico of tho peace who held mora offices than Pooh Dah himself, "Ho wan," Bays Jormon, "a notary public, i a storekeeper, superlntfendcnt of tho Sunday school, n lay preacher, post master, coroner, a farmer and a few mora things thnt I can't recall now. Ho was a shrewd old fellow, as a decision in a caso that I heard will go to show. Two farmers had a dis pute about the ownership of somo poultry, and ench plcadod his own case. Each sldo had an equal num ber of witnesses and thore was somo tall swearing dono all round. If I had been sitting on tho caso I would have given it up nts a bad Job, or sent it to court for trial. Dut that's Juat what bo didn't do. "I forgot to state that in addition to all his other functions ho was IiIb own countable. Tho hens were in court In a coop and he ordered that a con stablo should take tho coop to tho roadway opposite tho farms of tho liti gants and turn tho creatures loose. And ho did tho job himself and got his feo for doing it The lions settled tho caso by going directly to one of tho farms, and tho Justico declared that they know thoir way home, and gavo Judgmont accordingly." Philadelphia Press. BOSTON LIKES 8ENATOR DANIEL. Virginia Statesman Makes Distinct "Hit" at the Hub. Senator John Warwick Daniel of Vir ginia was tho lion of the occasion at tho recent dinner of the. Itoston Mer chants' association. A Boston dally declares that "from the moment tho company was seated Mr. Daniel was 'the cynosure of all eyes. A certain power radiated from his finely cut countenance and somehow it seemed as though where ho sat thero was tho head of tho tablo. A genuine south ron, a gentloman from Virginia, of tho old stock, and of clearest titlo to tho much-abused 'F. P. V.,' with all tho graces and outward marks of that dis tinction. With Good Effect. It was at a clmmbor concert by a famous string quartet, says tho Chica go Journal, nnd tho two largo hatted, chatty persons of tho matinco typo who eat directly boforo tho music lov ers wero so communicative as to their affairs and those of nil their acquaint ances thnt tho recital was of small pleasure to the appreciative and long Buffering couple directly in tho rear of the conversatlonalisti,, "I am sorry we could not havo heard moro of your conversation," tho patient palo lovor of muslo wrote on tho margin of his program, "but tho violinist has Incon siderately been making himself heard from time to time. I nm sure, how over, If you speak a llttlo louder he will understand nnd give way to you." "I would like to drop that in their laps," he said, passing It to his com- panlon with u savage gleam in his eye. "but I don't quite dare." "1 do, then," said the mild-voiced young woman at his side, and in somo sudden and Inexplicable manner tho paper appeared beforo the eyes of tho voluble persons before her. They looked wrathfully behind them, only to encounter a row ot Immobllo faces, all eyes raptly regarding tho stage. Thoy glared to the right and to the loft of them, with no moro satisfac tory results. Then they Bulked, which had the desired effect, and the remain der of tho evening was a distinct suc cess in their vicinity. The Wild Duck.

An expert nurseryman says tho hardiness or nonhardiness of trees de pends largely upon where tho seeds from which the trees in question sprang came from. Satisfactory re sults are seldom experienced by planting n seed obtained from the Sunny South, say. IJy planting seeds gradually further north, however, trees may be at length hardened and acclimated until a seed from such a tree may be reasonably expected to thrive nnd mature its fruits. Trees, llko people, acquire their habits from tho climate in which they live. Tho northern tree knows in stinctively when the time has como to ripen" its fruit The southern tree follows tho same instinct, being n no hurry, as there is little likelihood of real cold. With transplantlngs further north its habits changes. Tho great trouble with most people is that they want to Jump n tree from South to North at one move. This samo Idea is evident in tho at tempt to bring .various fruit trees from Russia to the northern United States. Apples and plums from tho land of tho Great White Czar have taken kindly to tho below zero conditions of tho gentlo Dakotas. FOR ECONOMY ON RAILROADS. Effective System Recently Introduced by James J. Hill. James J. Hill has Introduced a new economy on the railroads which ho controls. Each engine has a tab kept ' on Its daily employment and against it is charged every cent used for oil, fuel, repairs and operation. Thus if englno 200 Is found to be costing more than engine 250 tho engineer of tho i former Is asked to explain. Tho samo plan Is to bo extended to every car on tho system. Then the conductors and englnemen who mako tho best show ing are to have bonuses. Tight Clothes Cause Distress. Some of the most eminent physl clans in tho world declare with em phasls that tight gloves, shoes and I clothing havo a tendency to causo colds and a great deal of suffering during tho winter, no matter how warmly a person may be clad. Ho says: "Tight Bhoes on anyone's feet will nrrest the circulation! and while, of courHo, tho foot might not freeze, It has no chance to get warm, and thus Invites the cold, with a good pos sibility of pneumonia stepping In to chnrgo uji moro trouble to the tight shoes. Tho same thing Is true, though In a leseor degree, of tight gloves on tho hands, and a tight collar or tight neckband on a shirt is apt to causo a cold in the head by interfering with the veins in tho discharge of their duties. Shoes and gloves that fit snugly ought to bo worn in tho win ter, but thoso that are tight are abso lutely dangerous, extremely so be- cnuso tho general public knows so llttlo about It."

Thero is much more Intellectual cleverness among the girls of to-day than there was fifty years ago. A flippant cousin says: "It does not pay for a girl to be clever; men are afraid of you if you are, and the other girls hate you." The really clever women are those who disguise their learn ing, and poBe as amiable and charm ing idiots. Ladles' Field, Use American Money.

Commissioner Macfarland was the chief speaker at tho dedication of a new public school building in tho northern section of the city. Most of the pupils who were gathered in tho big hall on tho first floor to sing the national anthems and hear the ridvlco of their elders fero quite young, and the commissioner undertook to nmuso them with a little story of a former experience in a Washington public school. Thi3 is what ho said: ' "Ono day I was visiting a certain grado in a certain school, and tho teacher thero was so kind as to ask mo to question the children, so that I could find out how much thoy know. I didn't much relish being teacher oven for a fow minutes, but, chlldron, you don't know what, it Is to bo a com missioner; I Just had to do it. 1 "Well, I stood up In front, and I said: " 'Who can tell mo how tho District ot Columbia is governed?' "It seemed as if tho question woro too hard, and I was sorry I had asked it, because tho teacher had been so i anxious to have her pupils 'show off' before me. Then d little bit of a girl raised her hand timidly. "'Well, how is it governed, my lit tle girl?' I asked, reassured. I " 'Pleaso, sir, the District Is govern ed by threo missionaries, and one of them belongs to the engineer corpse.' "That was news to me, you know, and I had to resign my position to tho real teacher, I was so surprised.' Washington Star. Mine Drainage Planned. Mine drainage operations In South Staffordshire, England, by which 40, 000,000 tons of coal may bo won from flooded pits, are now contemplated These mines havo been flooded for a quarter of a century. The coal area has been split up into various owner sTiips, nnd before n drainage commis sion came into existence each owner was supposed to pump tho water from his own pits. Somo of them failed to do this and in tho end all of the pits woro abandoned. A drainage commis- sion has obtained power to pump out the pits and has secured a loan of $500,000 to do it with. Tho project Is an extensivo and difficult one, but .mining experts declare that It offers no obstacles which modern engineer ing resources are unablo to conquer. Tho ro-startlng of tho mlnos menns a large access of property to a district thnt stands in urgent need of it, and the prospect of restoring this long abandoned Industry has created great interest in tho neighborhood. Learn to Stand Well. Women who wish to preserve the sllmness and the contour of their fig ures must begin by learning to stand well. This is explained to mean the throw irig forward and upward of the chest, the flattening of tho back and the i shoulder blades held in their proper places, and the definite curving in of the small of the back, thus throwing the whole weight ot tho body on the h,PB- This, in a great measure, preserves tfae flguref becfluse jt keepg the mUB. cles firm and well strung, and pre- venU the sinking down of the flesh round the waist, so common in women ovPJ 30 wh,ch ls Prfectly ea8y to ' escape.

A woman visitor at a fashionable resort on the Maine coast last summer went to the Universallst church in the placo the "t Sunday morning of her stay, and (.was politely shown to a seat. There ,- nn v.xmn hnnk hnivovpr hut ho was no nymn D00K' oweer, but the ! occupant ot the pew behind her reachcd over and ulaced one In hr hands. At the close of the service the visitor turned and thanked tho person, saying as she was to attend that church all summer she would like to buy a hymn book. "Well," said tho other woman, "I guess you can have that book if you'll give me a pair of black gloves, No. 7." Very well," said the visitor. The noxt day she went to Portsmouth, purchased the No. One Thing to Avoid. Yes," said the great man, "I am going to write a book of personal rec ollections. I think I am prominent enough to do that, don't you?" "Oh, yes, you're prominent enough, but I'd like to caution you about one thing." "What's that?" "For the purposes ot publication, don't recollect anything about promi nent men now Hying." "But they're just the people I want to write about. Those are the kind of reminiscences that will mako the book sell." "Oh, well, suit yourself, but remem ber that I warned you." "What's tho danger?" "Why, Just as soon as you begin to recollect things about them they will begin to recollect things about you." "I hadn't thought of that," remarked tho great man. Cincinnati Post.
