The architect who designed the plane for the library and natural his tory building, tho Howe building and a number of tenements belonging to the l’erklne institution, and the Mas sachusetts school for the blind, of Boston, is himself a pupil of the school and totally blind, lie also de signed the plans for tho kindergarten for the blind. His name is Dennis Reardon. "First I got the idea of what I want in my head,” he said, speaking of his work to a reporter. "Then 1 draw tho plan in raised lines. I do not get the correct measurement, but the plan I hare assists me in e xplaining to a draughtsman. 1 give him the figures and then he draws the plan with the correct measurements.” He showed the reporter a plan for tenement houses. Running his finger lightly over the raised lines, he ex plained where the bay window was, how far it was to project, the folding doors, closets. Sometimes, instead of raised lines, he uses pins and a string lu a pin cushion. He says he does not read as rapidly as those who have been educated to it from childhood. Adults seldom grow so proficient as children who have grown up in the sch'ool. Mr. Roardon is also foreman in the printing r oom which furnishes all the books and reading material for the blind in the institution and also the books contained in the public library in Boston, Fall River, Provi dence, Portland and many other New England cities. The only charges made are those for transportation. Their large printing business has out grown their room and an addition is needed very badly They are trying to save enough to enlargo their quar ters, and no doubt, with a little aid from the friends of the institution, it could soon be accompli shed. His next work will be the plan for the annex. FRENCH POTTERS. Clmrlj Imitate the China of AU the Vamaut Maker*. Entering a china shop recently I asked the dealer the price of a small and very beautiful piece of Delft which had attracted my eyes for weeks whenever I happened to pass the window. Knowing it must be very expensive 1 had so far resisted the temptation. Much to my sur prise the dealer named a very moder ate price. "It is not Holland Delft, you know,” he said. "The same piece in Holland Dolft would cost twice that at least" "Well, what is it, then, if not Hol land Delft?" I asked. “To be Delft it must be made in the Holland potter ies." "That is no longer true,” said the dealer, smiling. "Strictly speaking this is not Delft, for it was made in France. At the same time we call it Delft, and even an expert of the first order would find it difficult to dis tinguish it from the genuine article exaept by the marks of the pottery, on the back. To all purposes, artistio and otherwise, it is Delft. Now, here is a piece of real Holland Delft, and I will wager you anything you like you cannot tell the difference." This was true, though the pottery marks were altogether different. The dealer went on: “Modern French potters are the cleverest imitators in the world, and of late years it is next to impossible to distinguish their imitations of modern Dutch and German and even English wares from originals, except by the marks, for the French seek to Imitate, not to defraud. "Their industry and cleverness, however, are in a certain sense un fortunate, notwithstanding the ex cellence of their wares, for they make famous glazes and patterns cheap and common, and thus lessen the value'of originals. , A Callage Departure. The students of Wellesley have nut into practice a new and original idea with respect to servants. This is nothing more than a series of “serv ants’ socials,” L e., pleasant social gatherings at w hich the girls as hd»> tesses and the servants as guests mebt upon terms of perfect equal ity. Thd' first of these affairs was not a success however, us not a servant put in an appearance. The next Satnrday even ing things went off better. Each girl sent eaph maid a polite invita tion by mall, in which the sender’s calling card was duly included. The entire scheme is under the direction of the Young Womon’s Christian as sociation of the college. Tbt Stflhk Halnmt. “The way the very fashionable and very young man wears his hair these days," said the wife of a Western senator, “reminds me of the way an old backwoods aunt of mine used to cut my brother's hair. She used to turn a big bowl up over his head and then cut olt what hair hung below the edge of the bowl. My brother hated it, but the modern young man seems to yearn for it, and 1 can’t think of any other way he can pos sibly produce the shock-headed effect he is so devoted to” Cold Contained la Can Water.

Tiuuranc* Moo Of tan Baa Cp Afllmt Them. “Insurance men ran np against some very queer customers,” said Frank Arnold, who is one of the flro risk takers from Hartford. “This is especially true of the individuals who think that their buildings are fire proof. Some of them are so absolute ly assured that fire cannot hurt thorn that they regard the suggestions of an agent aB to the advisability of placing a policy with his company very much in the nature of an insult. Several years ago I went to see a man in a Western city who had just com pleted one of the buildings guaranteed to be fire-proof. The walls were of brick, inclosing a steel and iron frame, but every partition was pine, and the floors were of the. same material. “A diversity of business was carried on in it by various tenants, and in several instances the stock carried was of the most combustible nature. The proprietor nearly kicked me out when I hinted at insurance. He had built his structure, he said, for the very purpose of being relieved from the outrageous impositions of insur ance companies, and proposed to keep free from any agreements with them. Ten hours afterward a fire alarm was sounded for the engines to go to the buildiug. They reached it to find its interior a roaring furnace. The next day fragments of brick wall and a mass of bent and twisted columns and girders were all that re mained of the fire-proof building. It was only another proof of the fact that fire-proof buildings burn faster and hotter than any other structures erected. This may seem paradoxical, but it’s true nevertheless.” MASSACHUSETTS’ CODFISH. An Emblem Whloh Hu Hone In the State Home for Over a Century. The famous codfish which hung from the base of the dome in the Massachusetts state house, and inside the old room in which the representa tives used to meet, has always attracted the notice of visitors and sometimes moved them to ridi cule. The following account of its origin is given: “In 1866 Charles W. Palfrey, editor of the Sa- < lem Register and a member of the house for several years, under took to gather all the facts that could be learned about the placing of the figure in the chamber. On Wed nesday, March 17, 1784, John Rowe, a member from Boston, moved permis sion to hang the codfish in the house as a memorial to the importance of the codfishery to the welfare of the state. The motion prevailed, and shortly after the emblem was placed in position, and there it has remained undisturbed through all the vicissi tudes of the years which have inter vened. Once it was painted, but it has never been taken down from the iron rod by which it is held in posi tion. Mr. Rowe, who presented the figure to the commonwealth, was a well-known citizen of Boston, and a conspicuous patriot, being associated with Samuel Adams, James Otis, John Hancock and other leaders of the period. lie was interested in commerce and was an extensive prop erty owner along the water front, Rowe’s wharf and contiguous terri tory being among his possessions. He died on February 17, 1787.” LARGE OYSTERS. In some Parts of the World One Makes 'a Poll Meat Pliny mentions that according to the historians of Alexander’s expedi tion oysters a foot in diameter were found in the Indian seas, and Sir James E. Tenncnt was unexpectedly enabled to corroborate the correctness of his statement, for at Kottiar, near Trincomalee, enormous specimens of edible oysters were brought to the rosthouse. One measured more than eleven inches in length by half as many in width. But this extraordinary meas urement is beaten by the oysters of Port Lincoln in South Australia, which are the largest edible ones in the world. They are as large as a dinner plate and of much the samo shape. They are sometimes' more than a foot across the shell, and the oyster fits liis habitation so well that he does not leave much margin. It is a new se nsation when a friend asks you to lunch at Adelaide to have one oyster fried in butter or eggs and bread crumbs set before you, but it is a very pleasant experience, for the flavor and delicacy of the Port Lin coln mammoths ai-e proverbial even in that land of luxuries. Clean at Drown Paper. Paper cigars are one of the most recent forms of adulteration in Ger many, where two manufacturers hare been punished for making them. In one case only the outside leaf con sisted of tobacco, the rest of the cigar being composed of brown paper preriously steeped in tobacco juice and then dried. In the other case, the cigar maker had actually entered into a contract with a paper manu facturer to make for him a special kind of brown paper with tobacco remnants and paper pulp, the sheets being afterward cut into strips and rolled into the form of cigars. Ulrnt of the Qaall. The toothsome reed bird and quail will have a rival in this new claimant for popular favor. It is the tinamou, a native of South America, whence they are exported.

It is decidedly gamy in flavor, and sells for <6 a dos es. The bird promises to become a .favorite. WITH TICHBORNE. Captain Andanon Throw* a Uttla Light Cpoa th* Famous Cuft When Captain Anderson, of the Mar itime Exchange, Philadelphia, read that the real heir of the Tichborne estate had been found in an Austra lian lunatic asylum he said: "Well, I am not surprised. I hare known the whole story, so far as a man can know anything, without any certified data to go upon. I was chief officer of the bark Hoppet, Captain Westerberg, when he sailed from Rio, in October, 1857, bound to Melbourne. Among our passengers were two men who attracted considerable attention. One was a big burly man and the other a slim youth with a small black moustache. The former was hail-fel low-well-met with everybody, but the latter was very retiring and showed a morose disposition, seldom answering the courtesies of passengers who casually greeted him. They were evidently partners, however, and both seemed to have an unlimited com mand of money. We reached Mel bourne about the middle of December of that year, and they both landed and that is the last I saw of them. "During the trial in England I came across the photographs pub lished, and I recognized the big fel low and young Tichborne as our mys- ’ terious passengers on board the Iloppet. The big man was called Tom by his companion, while the younger man’s name was Deslille, but his companion often addressed him as Roger. The statement that he was lost on the passage from Valpa raiso to Rio* Janeiro is wrong. Ac cording to the statement of the de feated claimant, the vessel, the Belle, was bound from Rio to Melbourne. Now, no such vessel could be traced in Lloyd's list or the Shipping Ga zette. Why? Simply because she did not exist. This man, Tom Castra, and young Roger Tichborne sailed in our vessel and were landed at Mel bourne all safe.” SNAKES ARB TOOLS OP TRADE. A Recent Federal Decision In Mew Fork so Settled a Case. Snakes are “implements and tools of trade,” under certain conditions. This important fact has been settled with due judicial solemnity in the suit of Miss Jeannie Magnon against the board of general appraisers. Miss Magnon is a snake charmer. She came to this country on the steam ship Bohemian on May 30, 1894, and brought twenty-eight trained snakes with her, which she intended to use during her engagement at Hagen back’s exhibition. The collector of customs decided that the twenty-eight snakes were subject to duty as animals, and Miss Magnon appealed to the board of appraisers, which sustained I the decision of the collector. Miss Magnon appealed to the courts, and Judge Wheeler in the United States circuit court of ap peals, handed down a decision re versing the board of appraisers’ opin ion aud sustaining the plaintiff. “The importer in this case,” says the judge, “is a snake charmer and imported twenty-eight snakes in her actual possession and used by her in exhibi tions of her skill in that profession and which are not for sale. A duty was assessed upon them as animals. She claimed they were free under paragraph 686 of the tariff act of 1890, which exempts implements aud tools of trade, occupation or employment. These snakes are clearly instruments within the meaning of the law. They are instruments with which she prac tices her profession, and are her pro fessional instruments. As such she seems to have been entitled to have them come with her duty free.” To Ebonlis Wood. The wood is immersed for forty eight hours in a hot saturated solution of alum, and then brushed over sev eral times with a logwood decoction, prepared as follows: Boil one part of best logwood with ten parts of water, filter through linen, and evaporate at a gentle heat until the volume is re duced to one-half. To every quart of this add from ten to fifteen drops of a saturated solution of indigo, com pletely neutral. After applying thi s dye to the wood, mb the latter with a saturated and filtered solution of verdigris in hot, concentrated acetic acid, and repeat the operation until a black of the desired intensitv is ob tained. It must always be remem bered when handling chemicals that great care must be taken to protect the hands. Will You Marry M«? A funny incident occurred on a re cent Sunday in a church at North London. A young man who carried a collection plate after the service be fore starting put his hand in his pocket and placed, as he supposed, a shilling into the plate, and then passed it round among the congregation, which included many young and pretty girls. The girls, as they looked on the plate, all seemed astonished and amused, and the young man, taking a glance at the plate, found that he had put, instead of a shilling, a con versational lozenge on the plate, with the words “Will you marry me?” in red letters, staring everybody in the face, while one of the congregation had capped it by a second lozenge, on which was printed “Name the happy i day.” _ nought a Temple. Dr. Austin Waddell, the great Bud dhist scholar, who has been working in Nepaul and Thibet in order to carry on his studies, purchased a Lamaist temple, with all its fittings. He then persuaded the priests who went with the temple to explain each detail of the ritual and its meaning, and so possessed himself of invalnable oriental lore. The priests were oblig ing enough to convince themseWes that he was a Buddhist reincarnation, so they hindered him in nothing./ SUPERSTITIOUS MUSICIANS. The Producer* of Sweet Sound* Hart Some Fanny Prejudice*.- : ••Well, I believe in some signs,” said, jolly Cnarlio Warner, when asked whether he*, in particular, and musicians in general, were supersti tious. Professor Warner in his life time has been connected with all the famous musical organizations of this country. He played E flat cornet with Gilmore’s band, was leading vio lin in various symphony orchestras, besides having had a long experience with circus and minstrel bands. “If musicians are superstitious," said he. “It is because their deal ings with the show people have made them so. Take, for instance, the man with a yellow clarionet. He couldn’t get a job even with a barn storming outtit. I remember when I was a member of Forepaugh’s circus band, when Tony Franks was the leader, Alexander Fischer, now solo clarionetist at McVicker’s Chicago theater, was one of our men, and he joined with three yellow clarionets. “The other members were very much alarmed at this doleful occur rence and importuned Fischeij upon every occasion to get rid of those box wood instruments. The circus per formers ‘got on’ to the color of the clarionets, and came running to Leader Franks with alarm pictured on their countenances. “ ut tne old man sees mose clarionets,’ said Franks, ‘we’ll all get discharged;’ and he told Fisher to either buy instruments of another color or paint the ones he had black. Alexander, however, did not have money enough to make the requisite change and told the leader so. “Driven almost to distraction, Franks sent and bought three hand somo buffot clarionets and hid them in his music chest. , He then told one of the canvas men to take Fischer’s yellow clarionets and drive them in the ring bank for stakes. The man did as he was directed, and the first thing that Alexander saw that night was his clarionets’ mouthpieces and all being driven into mother earth by lusty blows from a twenty-pound sledge. “ ‘Here, what are you doing with my clarionets?’ he yelled; but the brawny circus attache paid no atten tion to him, but kept on until nothing more could be seen of the three ‘tuners’ but their yellow hells. Fisch er hastened to Franks with tears in his eyes, but was instantly mollified when Tony placed in his hands the new black clarionets. “A yellow base viol is also consid ered the harbinger of bad luck. I re call one instance where a corpulent German engaged at a Louisville thea tor persisted in coming to work with a ‘bull-fiddle’ the color of a sunflower: Business at the house kept going from bad to worse, but the obstinate bass player continually refused to make a change in the color of his instrument. “When tiier curtain went up one Friday night there were but five peo ple in the house, and the members of the orchestra decided that something must bo done with that yellow fiddle. After the show they began arguing again with the German, but he re plied that it was all ‘tarn fool busi ness.’ This so exasperated the men that they threw the German and his yellow bass from a second story win dow into the street below, and ‘ho never came back.’” The Legislature. The comiDg session of the Teg-., islature will be especially interesting. After six years the republicans are again in control of both houses. A United States senator will be elected and a host ' of other good things should be done. No matter what your politics you will want to read about the legislature. No matter what paper you read at other times, you should read the Lincoln State Journal during the legislature. It is printed at the state capital and devotes more space to the legislative doings than all the other state dallies combined. The Journal has jumped away up in the lead, having the largest circulation in Nebraska. It is spending more money for news than its competitors. Col. Bixby is its daily poet. It also lias Walt, Mason. Wm. £. Annin, its Washington correspondent, serves up Washington stuff as no other correspondent employ ed by Nebraska papers has ever done it. Annin knows Nebraska people and Ne braska politicians like a book; his let ters are a great feature. Stories are fur nished by Conan Doyle, Rudyard Kip ling, and a host of others who are regu lar contributors to the world’s greatest magazines. The Journal’s price has been cut to 50 cents per month, without Sunday, and 05 cents with Sunday. You should try it awhile. The semi-weekly Journal is only $1.00 per year, and is a gieat family paper, almost as good as a daily for a large class of people. The Journal’s phenomenal growth is due largely to the reduction m price and the policy of attending to its own business not presuming to be a dictator. LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS. NOT1CB.
