Jay Gould's Hook. Occasionally sortie person knocks at the dior of J -7 Gould's office in the Western Union building with a copy of "The History of Delaware County, New York, by Jay Gould," to sell. An im pression exists in the minds of many people that Mr. Gould is desirous of suppressing this publication as com pletely as possible, and that he will pay almost any price to get possession of the few stray copies that are left. Resi dents of Delaware county are authority for tho statement that several years ago un agent of Mr. Gould's scoured that county for these books and lought near ly all of them at fancy prices. When ever a copy of this particular history of Delawaro county is displayed in that county at the present day the older resi dents will advise tho owner, "Jist yon take thet down ter New York, an Jay Gould'll give yer thirty or forty dollars for it." It is certain that nobody in Mr, Gould's oCice ever heard of his paying any such price for one of those books. And nobody is able t explain why Jtlr. Gould should want to suppress the pub lication, unless it is that he thinks there is too much sentiment in it for a man of his present reputation. New York Times. The Unreasoning Crowd. Speaking of the meer things to be seen on the streets, il is really astonishing how instinctively one person imitates an other. A man with a passion for psy chical research has been proving this by tome experiments which are, to say the least of it, original. Going along about dusk the other night in advance of a small party of folk, he suddenly turned out into the muddy street, as if avoiding something in front. Unquestioningly every person behind did the same thing in snite of the mire. It isn't likely that they felt the full humorous force of the incident in quite the way he did, however, when they saw him face about and walk calmly back in the beaten path. The sheep went to all the trouble of jumping over a bar of dust, to be sure, but it would really seem worth while if human beings could think a little more independently and for themselves. The truth of it is, it is just this blind unreasoning herding to gether that leads to half the accidents and panics which are cropping up on all sides. Boston Transcript. Antidotes for Snake Poison. The effect of snake bite depends partly on the condition of the snake and partly on that of the person bitten and the part attacked. No effectual antidote has yet been discovered. Ammonia and per manganate of potassium will not suffice, although a solution of the latter will lake away the poisonous property of the snake's venom if it be mixed therewith. Immediate amputation of a bitten toe or finger is the best course, as the delay of a few seconds may suffice to convey the poison into the patient's circulation. If from the nature of the part bitten amputation cannot be performed, a very tight ligature applied after cauterization and sucking the part is the best course, and the administration of stimulants is generally recommended. Quarterly Review. Bice and. Wheat at Weddings. Throwing rice and wheat at a wed ding is a relic of an old Roman custom, and has probably been common in Eng land since Roman times. Brand gives several authorities for it. Friend refers to the case of the bride of Henry VII at Bristol in 1486, when wheat was thrown upon her with the greeting, "Welcome and good luck!" Rice is used similarly at weddings in India, and the substitution of this grain for wheat in our own country of late years may be partly due to that fact; but where wheat cannot readily be come at rice would naturally suggest itself a a substitute. Notes and Queries. A Physician's Fees. South Africa responds to modern in. novations. A recent traveler in Kaffir land tells this incident: As we were upsaddling, there passed us a man driving a small flock of goats and several head of cattle. This was the husband of a lady physician who is ruining the practice of the local witch doctors, and he was taking home his wife's fee for attending a patient. Youth's Companion. Not the Man in Question. A laborer in a rough felt hat and long smock walked the other day into the Shakespeare library, and after looking attentively for some time at one of the custodians, went up to him and said, "I say, zur, be you Mr. Shakespeare as Tve heer'n speak ov?" The custodian ex plained to Hodge that he was not the gentleman referred to. London Telegraph. About Salad l)milD( Every one in New York who catl naiad thinks that there, are a few people in town who can tfjake a fairly good talad dressing, but tliat noneof them can come up to the dressings made by him (th thinker). "I tell you, sir," said Boggs, the gour mand, as he deluges the lettuce with ITreaso, "that fellow Snoggs thinks he knows how to do this, but he doesn't have any more idea t it than a cow. Think of it, ho puts in more vinegar than oil!" At the same moment Snoggs is mixing a dressing in another part of town and snickering to himself as he remarks: "I was very much amused the other night at the way Boggs did this. He actually made a dressing without vinegar! Ha: Ha!" and every one laughed. Then there is Juggins, of West Thirty fourth street, who also has his peculiar views. "Any man," he declares, "who puts mustard in a salad shows his igncv ranee." Muggins, of East Sixty-seventh street, also has decided convictions. "What do you think," ho roars out; "1 6aw Jugging putting mustard in a salad dressing." Then some put in sugar. Others think this an awful absurdity. A few use a dab of Worcestershire sauce. Others would rather be lynched than follow their example. The funny thing is that there is only one way to make a salad dressing. That is the way known to tho reader of this article. But the funniest thing is that the same diner out will devour the dressing made by Boggs and join in with his jokes at the expense of the dressings made by Snoggs, Muggins and Juggins. Then the 6ame man will eat at the table of Mug gins and apparently sneer with that per son at the efforts of Snoggs, Boggs and Juggins. There's a lot of conceit and deceit about salad dressings. New York Her ald. A Really Absentm tnded Woman. An absentminded woman put herself on record the other morning in a cross town car, which she boarded at Sixth avenue, bound east. She paid her fare, said "Third avenue" to the conductor, took a second nickel for her ticket on the elevated, and, shutting her purse, gave herself over to some evidently absorbing thought. The car was full of changing people, as is usual with crosstown cars, ar 1 a moment later the conductor, making his round again, noticed the nickel and me chanically reached for it. The wo nan gave it to him without a word and iode on. Near Fourth avenue she suddenly started out of her reflections, glanced around, 6aw that she was near her des tination, took out a third nickel to have it ready and once more knit her brws in meditation. Before Third avenue was reached the conductor passed her again. This time she proffered him the nickel, which he would stolidly have taken save for the intervention of an old gentleman Beated opposite. "Madam," he said, "you have already paid your fare twice." The woman started and looked con fused, then a light dawned on her face, she thanked the gentleman, put her nickel into her purse and the purse deep into a mysterious pocket somewhere in the back of her dress just as Third avenue was reached. When last seen she was hurrying up the stairs strug gling to fish the purse out in search of the heretofore too convenient nickel. New York Times. They Foond the Indiana. One night in the tent I heard a cow boy tell this story: He was with a big outfit moving cattle, and one day, some where near the line separating Colorado from New Mexico, they encountered a settler's cabin which had been plunder ed by Indians. The settler and his wife and children had been killed. The fore man was sent for, and he immediately ordered that the cattle be allowed to take care of themselves while the cow boys went after the Indians. Three par ties set out at once, one commanded by the foreman and the other two by ex perienced men. One party came back in a day without finding any trace of the Indians. Another party came back in two days without finding any trace of the Indians, but at the end of the third day the third party came back whooping and yelling and firing off their pistols, they had found the Indians, killed every one of them and captured their ponies. Cor. Topeka Capital. The Ice Invasion. On both sides of the Atlantic equally, the intercalation of fossilized forests bears authentic witness to the sweeping over the land of two great waves of ice invasion. The trees manifestly grew where the glaciers had been; again the glaciers crept forward to constitute themselves the sepulchers of the trees. The second advance, however, fell short of the first, and succeeded it at an un known interval of time. Opinions are much divided as to its true significance. Dr. Wright inclines to connect the "forest beds" with merely partial oscillations of the ice front. Edinburgh Review. Fences in England. English bar fences have the appear ance of being bottom side up somewhat as an y looks when inverted. But it is all right; lumber is scarce there, and it isn't necessary to have the bars so close together up where the horses and cattle are as down where the sheep and pigs would be tempted to crawl through.
