PORTRAIT OF MME. CHOUTEAU \
An Interesting Relic of St Koult’ Karljr
Day * Preserved.
One of the most interesting of tho
family heirlooms preserved by des
cendants of the first Chouteau family
in St. Louis is a life-size portrait of
Mme. Marie Theresa Chouteau, wife of
Pierre Chouteau, and who is credited
with having been the mother of St.
Louis. The picture is owned by Miss
Martha Berthold of 4218 West Pme
boulevard, a great great ganddaughtor,
her father's mother having been a
Chouteau and the granddaughter of
Mme. Marie Theresa Chouteau. Aside
from its historic value the picture is
prized as a curious relic. The painting
is made on a surface of wood so care
fully planned as to deceive the observ
er into the belief that it is canvas. It
was painted by a traveling artist whose
name was not preserved, but who
showed by the quality of his work that
he was not a novice. The picture, it is
believed, was painted while Mrs. Chou
teau sat on the porch of the cabin
which in the very early days served
herself and her husband as a homo.
Covering tho shoulders was a hand
somely embroidered shawl, fastened at
the neck suggesting that she must
have been out of doors when she posed
for her portrait. On her head and com
pletely concealing the hair was a ker
chief, knotted just over the forehead,
after the style in vogue in the primi
tive days. The date of the portrait is
unknown, but it is believed to have
been painted shortly after Mrs. Chou
teau’s arrival at the river settlement,
which was in 1774. The bloom of youth
was still upon her cheek and the ex
pression of young womanhood in her
eyes. The picture has been handsome
ly framed and hangs in the upper hall
r the Berthold residence. A glass has
never been placed over the portrait.
The picture is highly cherished by
Miss Berthold and her relatives, and
she proposes to place it on exhibition
at the World’s Fair.—St. Louis Globe
Democrat.
POKER FLAT OF TODAY.
Little Reminder of the Famous Cali
fornia Camp of 1852.
In 1852 Poker Flat produced $700,000
In gold bullion in a single month and
celebrated the event with a triple
hanging. Then came the public spasni
of virtue which caused the John Oak
hursts and the “Outcasts of Poker
Flat” to depart from thence and die
of cold and starvation on the snow
bound road to Sandy Bar. There aro
no “Oakhursts” nor “Uncle Billys” in
Poker Flat today, and when the
stranger makes the slow descent and
suddenly, by a sharp turn in the trail,
comes upon the famous camp, he finds
in that huddle of cabins little to re-,
mind him of the Poker Flat of 1852.
The famous slope presents. almost a
picture of utter ruin. There are but
eight persons living in the old town,
while a hundred dead ones sleep in
the. cemetery. Some of the graves are
marked with wooden headboards, some
with stakes, but m..ny have nothing
above them. Nearly all of them were
laid to rest without religious rites,
save a Bible reading by old Charlie
Pond, who, though a professional
gambler, was selected for the religious
office, owing to his excellent voice and
oratorical ability. In 1853 and 1854
there were 2,000 souls In Poker Fiat,
and fifteen stores, five hotels, three
fiance halls, and seven gambling
houses. There is but one man left to
day of that original company. He is
Henry Wagoner, an old and grizzled
veteran, who delights to tell how In
1856 a circus came to town and sold
1,500 tickets of admission at $20 each.
----'■—
“Get Umjr.”
There is a whole sermon in the par
lance of the day, "get busy”—that Is,
get to doing something; get to work;
be a doer of the word and not a hear
er only. A dozen synonyms will sug
gest themselves for the colloquia ism,
yet it has, perhaps, a pregnancy of
meaning and a rugged force which
none of them quite duplicate, as is
often the case with the living speech of
the people, as compared with the dead
speech of the books, “(let busy” is the
gospel today. The man who does not
get busy is distanced from the start.
The stress of competition, the eager
pursuit of wealth and advancement,
leave no chance for the man who idles
his chances away. Get busy at some
thing; even If it is not quite what
you like, do the best you can, and
hope for better things. But while you
are hoping, do not stop working. Get
busy—keep busy. Get busy for the
good of the community. If it isn’t all
it should be, try to make it better,
more prosperous, more progressive.
Don’t sit like a big frog, croaking all
the time, and never trying (o do any-,
thing else. Get busy (n a hopeful, help-,
ful enterprising yay. The man who
gets busy has no time to be a busy
body; his only Interest In the affairs of
others is to help where he may.
J\Iuinline the Ox.
A Vienna correspondent writes that
there is a law in Austria which makes
it a very serious offense to insult a
public official, or even to offend his
dignity in any way. Public officials in
clude all railway employes from traffic
director to porter, policemen, tramway
drivers and conductors and municipal
street cleaners. Recently an electric
tramcar ran into an omnibus and over
turned it. One of the omnibus pas
sengers, Frau Sidonie Lankh, wife of
a well-known doctor in Vienna, wa»
badly cut and received a severe shock
to her nerves, which prostrated her
for weeks. After the collision, in her
alarm and pain, she cried, referring to
the driver of the electric car: “The
wretched fellow! Why couldn't he stop
sooner?” For this expression she was
summoned and sentenced to a fine of
£1 13s 8d "for insulting a public of
ficial.”
Earn Mnioy Rootling IlaU
A new industry, which is proving a
source of considerable revenue to i
small boys who live near the suburban
pleasure parks, is that of “hat rescu
ing.” The youngsters station them
selves around the scenic railway* and
toboggans and when the headgear of
some unlucky passenger 1* blown off
during the rapid ride—an accident
which occurs at almost every trip of
the flying cars—one of them seizes it
and hastens to the stopping place.
Very few persons have nerve enough
to send the polite rescuer off-without
rewarding him—Philadelphia Time*.
Fllft One-Ont Conscience*
The Conscience fund at Washington
was enriched by 1 cent contributed by
a Toledo citizen who recently pur
chased a lead pencil from a Canadian
at Buffalo, paying 2 cents for it. Ha
learned subsequently, to his great hu
miliation, that the Canadian had not
paid the duty, amounting to 1 cent.
To relieve a conscience-stricken mind
he inclosed a 1-cent postage stamp in
a letter to Treasurer Roberts. The
writer did not disclose his name.—
Boston Evening Transcript.
Improving tlie Potato*
A new method of improving the po
tato is credited to M. Michalet, as a
result of experiments made in the De
partment Vaucluse, France. Ho ad
vises that the potato plant should be
stripped of its blossoms and the crop
tubers will be improved In quantity
and be richer in starch. The flower
is not nt all necessary to the well
being of the plant, which in the pro
cess of blossoming consumes starch
and other vegetable substances.
Brown straw Hats In New York*
A student of men's Bummer hats
says there are fewer brown straws
worn in New York than any other city
in the country. “I have never heard
any explanation of it,” ho said, "but I
suppose it is because the atmosphere
in New York is not foul as it is in
cities where soft coal is burned. I
know that In St. Douis and Pittsburg
you will see almost as many brown as
you will white straws.”—New York
Sun.
Tarrot’S Melancholy Word*.
One of King Edward's pets whioh
has long been kept in the hall at Sand
ringham is a small green parrot, which
his majesty purchased personally from
a boy In Trafalgar square while pass
ing through there privately with his
equerry one day. The bird is a splen
did talker. What has always been his
favorite expression is a meloncholy
one now: "Now, then, hip, hip, hurrah
for the queen!”
Mtxtug Commerce anti Art.
The subject Is under discussion In
France of substituting fruit trees along
the roads in place of the fine speci
mens of arboriculture now in exist
ence. It is argued that the fruit trees
will bring in some revenue to the gov
ernment, and in that respect will be
of greater value than those which pro
duce only leaves and blossoms.
Timber About Puget Sound.
Probably no place on earth will aver
age acre for acre the timber that the
Puget Sound region can furnish. It
is flr, cedar, spruce, hemlock, and ald
er, as well as maple and other woods.
Jts Douglas flr—the most common vari
ety—has been found superior to yel
low pine and other woods heretofore
us*d for c:.r building.
Timber of Oerman Fore.tt.
The total annual production of tim

this is supplemented by an import of
4,600,000 tons. The materisl progress
of the country would not be possible
had it not the large home production
to fall back upon.—New York Post,

DEPTH OF A RAINFALL.
Thi Ingenious Method by Which It Is
Accurately Measured.
Probably one question that has puz
zled the lay mind is how the depth
of a rainfall inay be accurately deter
mined. Tho way it is done is this:
A funnel whose larger aperturo rep
resents a surface of 10 square Inches
Is placed In a position where it may
catch the direct fall of the rain, with
the rim of the funnel extending per
haps an inch or more beyond the plat
form to which it may be fixed. This
is for ahe purpose of preventing any
rain from being wasted into the fun
nel and increasing the true fall. Frqm
this funnel the water runs to a tube,
which bears an exact and carefully
determined ratio to the area of the
funnel's mouth, say one-tenth. If,
therefore, the tube shows water to the
depth of an inch, it Is clear that one
tenth of an inch of rain has fallen.
The tube Is provided with a carefully
graduated scale, so that the fall may
bo readily seen. Three Inches of rain
would show a depth of thirty inches in
a tube one-tenth the size of ahe receiv
ing aperture, and the decimals of an
inch could bo quickly noted by ob
serving tho scale. If placed on the
roof of a building, the apparatus
should be kept away from tho edges, to
prevent any peculiar slant of the wind
carrying into the funnel a larger pro
portion of rain than would fall into
it under normal conditions. The larg
er the aperture of the receiving fun
nel la made, the more accurate will
be the results obtained. A curious
fact that has been noted in connection
with rainfalls is that gauges placed
on roofs usually gather less water than
those placed on the ground. This is
accounted for on tho theory that the
rain in falling absorbs some of the
moisture of tho air and the greater
distance it falls the larger will be the
bulk of the individual drops.—New

GOVERNMENT CLERKS.
Thrift Among Them Increases Under
civil gervlco Rales.
One of the most satisfactory results
of the establishment of the civil serv
ice law and regulations here, according
to an old officer of the government,
has been the increasing unpopularity
of the borrowing habit among clerks,
writes the Washington correspondent
of the New York Times. The uncer
tainty of tenure of office under the
spoils system tended to carelessness
in the use of money, and carelessness
brought on the necessity for anticipat
ing pay by borrowing, sometimes from
persons of small capital who demand
ed extortionate interest for their
loans. Since efficiency has come to
be the condition of retention in office
and not political influence, thrift has
Increased, and hundreds of clerks who
were once In the habit of borrowing
from month to month are now saving
money to pay for homes purchased on
the instalment plan, and in such in
stalments that many years are given
in which to clear off the incumbrance
acquired with the property. The de
partment money lender as he used to
be has almost disappeared, and it is
asserted that there are no longer ex
members of congress here who derive
more money as interest than they ob
tained in a year as members of the
house. This class of lender was the
most dreaded and respected, for when
he operated he learned to exercise his
political influence in a cruel and wan
ton manner in case his exorbitant
Interest was not paid on time.
A Lender's Triumph.
Liszt was the first pianist who
played whole programmes by heart.
Weber seems to have been the first
conductor who was able to get along
without a score. An acident proved
this. At Dresden, one evening, Mo
zart’s “Magic Flute’’ was to be given,
conducted by Weber. The moment to
commence was drawing near, when It
was observed that the score of the
opera had not been placed on the di
rector’s desk. Great consternation was
among the musicians. The court was
expected to arrive at any moment, and
the ( 'estra well knew that Freder
ick . t would be enraged did their
inst.i .ts not burst into harmony as
soon l. \e appeared. The anxiety ex
tended to the audience; Caroline, the
wife of Weber, looked at the empty
desk before her husband with agita
tion. Weber saw *he danger, but he
smiled, and, without losing sang froid,
sent some one to search for the score;
but the court entered at about the
same instant. Weber glanced at his
trembling wife to reassure her,
grasped bis baton, gave the signal to
begin, and conducted the entire first
act of the opera from memory, with
out a note of the music, with Ids usual
vigor and ability, even amusing the
oirhestra by pretending to turn the
pages at the proper moment. The af
fair soon became noised about, and
reached the ears of the royal family,
who personally overwhelmed Weber
with compliments.
The llualness Side of Yachting.
Many private yachts are built as
auxiliary business institutions. The
owners use them for the entertainment
of their business friends, and they
find that a business deal can be made
to better advantage in a luxuriously
furnished cabin, or on a deck arranged
for the comfort of the visitors than In
an uninviting office. But the majority
of the steam yachts owned by Ameri
cans are maintained, at great cost, for
the pleasure which may be derived
from their use. - While some of the
vessels make long cruises, others are
kspt near home, but always ready at
short notice to carry the yachtsman
nnd his friends to foreign ports, and
:.here is rarely an important meeting
of yachts In European waters where
ihe United States is not well reDra.
