r Ban. w ..iton to Seattle Z Oallanh;r, a fane,-. . from lieu ton. M r. G&.. sA the pioneers of the nonnl , .id has lived on the same place aty years or more, .taking ap a ,r section a a bometttead from the .rnraent. By years .of hard toil he i cleared ap and improved a splendid jC, which, though secluded from the , Jtaide world, is a model ranch, of which the owner is juMtly proud. Mr. Gallagher is not riven to hunting and does not indent wild game of any kind, and to this muy be ascribed the tameness of a number of animals which make the woods in that vicinity a homo. One of these, a blactc bear, has for a year vim tod his stockyard almost daily and eaten with the cattle, lying down arnon the calves and displaying neither fear nor ferocity. Mr. Gallagher goes among the stock and frequently pauses within two cr three feet of his hearahip, not only in the yard but in the woods. lie pays no at tention to the bear and the latter never offers to molest him on the contrary, eats with evident satisfaction pieces of bacon and other scraps from the table that are thrown ont to him. The bear is a handsome 300 pound fellow and ap pears to enjoy the company of the cattle. Other pets are a pair of fawtis that run around with the young stock on the place, eating with the calves and lying down among them as contented as though with their own kind. They evi dently come from the vicinity of Cedar lake, where considerable hunting is done and from which section game is being driven. Mr. Gallagher Kays he had rather part with the hest cow on his place than one of the fawns. This is tbo second time fawns have taken up their abode at tliis place, the first pair coming there about five years ago and remaining with his stock for two years, even going into the stables and being locked -'np over night. He gave them to a neighbor, who in turn presented them to friends at Snohomish and up the Skagit. This sounds fishy, but not only is it vouched for, but it is further said that wild ducks and geese alight in his yard and show no fear in his presence, though, the appearance of a stranger is the signal for flight. Mr. Gallagher never hunts and will not allow , hunting on his place nor interference in any way with his pets, either quadrupeds or winged. Seattle (Wash.) Press-Times. Women What is there I'roforu so incongruous in woman professor in universities, where men are educated with women? This is the question Mrs. M. Louise Thomas and others are asking, who are trying to raise funds to endow a woman's chair in a northern university. Why is it that a woman teacher is deemed so necessary through all the grades, from the primary to those of the graduating class of the high school, and yet she should he deemed 60 pernicious and disastrous in colleges? Whether these are good rea sons or not, the experiment is to be given a fair trial, for very recently the bill providing for a woman professor ship at the State University of Michigan has become a law. Not far behind comes the news also that the University of Denver, which numbers about 800 students, has con ferred on a woman the honor of naming an important professorship after her that of literature to be known here after as the Mary Lowe Dickinson chair of belles letter, which chair has just re ceived as an endowment from ex-Governor John Evans the sum of $50,000. Brooklyn Eagle. How the Uilliuen Turn Tail. It is possible that before our soldiers get to close quarters with the enemy they will see the latter "turn tail." Let them not be deceived. Turning tail is a different thing with the hillmen to what it is with us. The inhabitants of one group of villages, the Rengman, are no ticeable for wearing a caudal appendage. This, of course, is not natural. It is fashioned of wood, eighteen inches long, carved upward, tapering to a point. This is fitted to the back, being sus pended from the shoulders and secured in position by a sash, which is tied tight ly around the waist. This singular ap pendage is worn in battle, and is intend ed to signify defiance. The wearers turn their backs toward the adversary, and, by balancing the body alternately on either leg, wag the tail defiantly in his very face. National Review. Where Genlos Tires. At one of the table d'hote dinners of the Fellowcraft club one man said: "I know that your device might be the erse of Eviradnus, 'Without ever being absent or saying I am tired.' You write five or six columns every day. Tell me this, Is literary work tiresome or is it not?" The other replied: "Not to the mind. It is nothing to unroll the ara besques of fantasy, but the bending over one's paper and the guiding of one's pen give pains in the back." It reminded a third person of an interview with Sarah Bernhardt, when he asked, "In playing so many emotions, in affecting so much suffering, don't you feel terrible pains in your heart? "Oh, no," she said sadly: it's in the legs." New York Times. He Paid the Bills. She You are always talking about the fashions.

The cultivation of the india rubber tree on the island of Trinidad is receiv ing much attention.

I ar rived at the small western door of the prison as the invalids of the convoy were being brought out and placed on three fpringless carts. There were about eight or ten in each cart (not Jews), old men. old women and others, of various ages, plainly in extreme debility. They seemed utterly helpless and care less and presented a very sad sight. A few women were present, evidently in terested in the fate of the prisoners. They carried bags and tins, which I saw at once were meant to given to some loved one in the convoy. I noticed two of these women particularly, the one a very ladylike jerson of middle age, with regular features, telling that sho was uot a Russian. Her companion was a mere girl of perhaps sixteen or seven teen, with an undoubtedly Jewish coun tenance. My information was that there would be either two or four Jews in the convoy, for very few now remain in the prison, the rest having leen removed, and it was by their features, bearing and dress 1 should recognize them. While I was thus observing things around me the procession of prisoners began to defile from tho small door mentioned. They came two by two, chained together by handcuffs, and closely guarded by prison wardens. The prisoners were of both sexes and varied in age, appearance and dress. Some wore prison garments, some wore their own clothes and some the con vict's dress with the yellow diamond on the back. TWO INNOCENT JEWS. As the convoy passed the group of women alongside whom I stood, I noticed a commotiou among them. The Russians ejaculated prayers after their wont; the elderly lady and girl became excited. I scrutinized the prisoners closely, being well stared at by them and scowled at by the guard, but could detect no Jew. Features upon which vice and crime and misfortune and misery were stamped in indelible stains there were in plenty, but among these 1 noticed no Jewish face. Just as the rear was coming up, and in the 6ftf? row from tho last, 1 noticed two handsome open countenances. These were what I was in search of. There could not be a moment's hesita tion. Here were two Jews. The one was a stalwart, elderly man, with a beard and ruddy face, on whom prison life had been able to do little hurt. The other was likewise tall, with short black beard and more pronounced Jewish features. The two Jews were chained together. Probably they aro to be sent to the same neighborhood. As 1 expected, the lady and girl were looking for these two prisoners, like my self, and attempLeit to pass the bags with the little new kettles and panni kins to their relatives or friends. The nearest warder, seeing the attempt, shouted "Neelza," or "That is not al lowed," and raised his drawn sword as if to strike the girl, who was in front of her companion. Falling back with a sigh, the girl seemed not to despair, but to hope for another chance, with that in domitable perseverance 60 characteristic of the race. STRICT GUARDS. Afterward at the railway station I saw the same pair engaged on the same merciful errand, but whether they suc ceeded or not 1 do not know. I could not help them, but only might have compromised them with the authorities by inquiries. After traveling by railway to one of the western provinces Jfcithin the pale the Jewish prisoners will be marched on, presumably, as they are at the moment I write, in chains, to the destination assigned them. The names of these two Jews I could get if it were necessary, and I know that they are not charged with any offense, but are merely being 6ent away by the czar's ukase, and not having money enough to pay their railway expenses, or, more probably, having given over to their dear ones the money they possessed, they are ignominiously herded with criminals, and chained like them. I once thought of taking a camera to photograph them, but I do not think the evidence so obtained would be stronger than that now given. It is not easy to photograph particular individuals in a crowd in motion, nor can it be done without exciting notice. As 1 was three times warned by the sentry that it was not allowed "to look," as he put it, prob ably I should have been expelled like a Jew if I had been caught photographing what the Russians consider is a private affair of their own. Having seen what I have recorded, no honorable person can iispute the evidence. I have only seen two, that is true, but had 1 been ad- I mitted into the secret of what was going on earner l snoma nave seen many. Moscow Cor. London News. Took Moody for a Hickman. It is related of Moody, the evangelist, that he was sitting in his family carriage at the Northfield station recently as a train came in. A 6tranger, mistaking him for a hackman, ordered him, with some show of authority, to drive to the hotel, and, without a word of dissent, the great preacher did as he was bidden. He refused to take any pay for his serv ices, however, and this excited the curi osity of the man, who appears to have been a minister. He was dumfounded to learn that the hackman, to whom he bad also made free comments on Mr. Moody's work in the course of the drive, was none other than the evangelist him self. Springfield (Mass.)

"Have you got any buff trimming to go with this staff?" asked a flashily dressed woman of an assistant in a large draper's near Regent street the other day. "I think so, miss," answered the polite young man, taking down a piece of goods and spreading it on the counter. "Buffi Do you call that buff?" ex claimed the woman. "That's too dark for a buff." "But, miss, that is" "It's too darkl I can see it is." "Why, of course it's dark, madam," persisted the man. "It's blind man's buff the new shade, you see." He sold the goods. London Tit-Bits. A Boot nnd Sboe Museum. One section of the great historical col lection at Dresden is literally a museum of boots and shoes, being, it is believed, unequaled in the world as a repository for the footwear of celebrities. Among the things of interest shown are a pair of shoes worn by Martin Luther at the Diet of Worms, and the toilet slippers of the great Maria Theresa. In a sealed case are shown the boots worn by Na poleon at the battle of Dresden, and the jack boots of Peter the Great. St. Louis Republic A Warm Day.
