There was a tremendous rumpus end excitement in a prominent drag store : oh Chestnut street, near Twelfth, the other day. A fair maid, strolfSeg down the street with a large ma-stiff, stopped in 'the store for soda. The place was crowded, and among the crowd were twe other ladies with two other dogs. The other dogs were considerably smaller than the mastiff, but by a light ning calculation they decided that by combining forces they might take a fall out of him. Instantly acting, the rum pus began. In one-fifth the space of time it takes to write it the air was filled with snarln, yelps, barks, growls, dog hair, female shrieks, children's howls and screams, soda water, muffs, small packages and male profanity. Women and children clambered upon the counters or fled into the street; the clerks and soda water boys grabbed the fighting dogs, and the big mastiff was dragged out upon the pavement, where a crowd had already gathered. Seeing" his mistress on the outskirts or the crowd the mastiff gave a bound toward her and hurled an old gentleman and a small girl flat on their backs. The crowd scattered as if it had been an egg Ureal Feats of Strength. Iyu1nn hue rwwn n1rt nirui1 l.itelv I, feats of strength that are certainly re- rPoultry, tie.

First there was a man named Sandow. who was an enormously powerful man; he was succeeded by Saraiwon, and he in turn by an Irinh American named Sullivan. Curiously, the three names begin with the letter S, which is also the initial of "strength." and of the (Jreek word for strength (sthenos). Sullivan, the latest comer, is thirty years of age, stands 5 feet 8 inches in height, and weighs 1C8 pounds. His appearance presents little that is nn nsual in the way of muscular develop ment, and his biceps are neither very large nor wonderfully rigid. It is in his neck and jaw that his strength chiefly lies, and the majority of his feats are 6uch to bring this peculiarity into special prominence. . At an exhibition given in London he fastened a chain to a 56-pound weight, and the other end being griped be tween his teth, swung himself around and around until the twirling chain as sumed a nearly horizontal line. .

Philadelphia Record. Easter Lilies. The attention the florist pays nowa days to the Easter lilies is a marked one; for not so many years ago the demana for the beautifully simple white flower was exceedingly small. They found the readiest sale with churches then, and it was rare indeed to find a private house decorated with these flowers. Even the churches did not require so many as to make the pro duction of the Easter lily more than a mere incident in the work of a florist's gardener. Now it is a feature of his la bors in the fall to pot thousands of bulbs, Besides the usual amount of care ex ercised by a good gardener in raising flowers of any kind, these lilies require especial attention. Before or after the Easter season there is very little demand for the flower, and he must see to it that the buds appear just as Lent is ushered in. To have the plants flower several weeks before or not until the season is closing means a big financial loss. Plac ing the plants in a dark room delays the buddins until the time arrives for them to be salable, and then the forcing be A Cruel Joke on Itoomers.

A few days ago, Mrs. Andrew Reid, Jr., of Mount Vernon place, who , is a native of France, and whose brotner is an artist in Paris, made one of the rich est art discoveries that has ever come to light in Baltimore. Mrs. Reid is a great lover of art and knows a good picture when she sees one. For a long time she has been in the habit of hunting through secondhand stores for old paintings. KflvAral davs aero, bv chance, she walked into a store on North Charles street. There she saw a dilapidated looking old picture, which represented the head of a French peasant. At first she did not pay much attention to the picture, but went on to examine the other old things in the store. By chance she returned to the picture, and it struck her as being a remarkably fine piece of art work. She turned it over and looked on the back, and there was the artist's name. Before her was one of the most valuable pictures in Baltimore. She immediately called the dealer and asked the price of the picture. He stag gered her by asking twenty dollars. She paid the price, took the picture home with her, and now it cannot be bought for less than thousands. It was a rich find, truly, as there are only two other pictures in Baltimore by the same artist. The picture is by Jean Baptiste Greuze, and on the back of it is "Jean Baptiste Cireuzo. 1 -io to Mr. William T. Walters owns one of the pictures, for which he paid a big price. and Mr.'LeonceKobillon owns meoiner. Ir. Walters viewed Mrs. Reid s picture yesterday and pronounced it genuine.
