The death of Jose Maceo, the late

was characteristic of the irrepressible
spirit that made the American colonies

Cuba In the end. An eyewitness, Just

Maceo, being shot through the neck
with a rifle ball, fell headlong to the

The women of England who work in
factories, etc., make it a point of digni

with them on holidays and Sunday. It
Is Interesting to know that they are
as much taken by a gaudy appearance
as men are, for we are informed by
undoubted authority that they will pay
6 shillings to have a Highlander to
walk beside them, 2 shillings and six
pence for a blue-jacket, and 18 pence
for a marine, the latter not being so
picturesque. And oftentimes as they
pass each other on the street the girl

Joseph B. Bishop. In an article In
the Forum on the "Social and E-o-nomic
Influence of the Bicycle," points
out that the present interest In bicy
cling is in no sense a "erase," which
will disappear In a short time, as did
the roller-skating craze, for Instance.
On the contrary, the bicycle is a perma
nent factor in modern life, which Is
producing social and economic changes
of far-reaching Importance. In ex
planation of his faith in the perma
nent of the wheel Mr. Bishop savs
"The simple fact Is that the human
race has discovered a new power for
its own use. From the earliest dawn
of civilization man has been r rri-
menting with the wheel, which he In
vented to increase his powers of lo
comotion. He has pressed Into this
service the horse and various other a;
inals. steam, electricity and compress
ed air. Finally he has hit upon a de-
vice which makes bis own body the
source of power. He has placed
wheels upon bis feet and at a result
finds his powers of locomotion multl
plied by five and even ten. Instead of
walking five or ten miles with more or
less effort and fatigue he finds himself
traveling ten, twenty, fifty, and even
a hundred tulles, according to his phy
sical vigor and experience, with little
perceptible fatigue and with a most
delightful sense of animation. The
winged sandals of Mercury are his
henceforward. We have become a
race of Mereurys, In fact, and the Joy
wnicn is reit over the new power
amounts to a passion." Having once
become the possessor of this isiwer the
human race is not going to abandon
It. The bicycle must be looked ujion,
therefore, as a permanent factor.
It seems tua- there Is danger lurking
In love songs in summer as well as In
strawberry Ice cream. The young man
who calls upon a young lady while
the dog star is In the zenith and while
Cupid Is wearing nothing but a palm
leaf fan, should beware of the pile of
sheet music that lies temptingly on the
corner of the piano. It looks Innocent
enough, but It was put there with de
sign; It 'Is full of the microbes of
trouble. It Is also full of promissory
notes. A wealthy young man who re
sides at Davis Junction, 111., called up
on one of the winsome belles of the
classic village the other evening. The
calorie was too hectic to permit of the
ordinary caresses that are Indulged in
by young people, aud so the young mar
foolishly toyed with a large sheet of
warm music bearing on its richly illu
minated title page the words. "Oh,
Promise Me," by De Koven. Not sat
isfied with fondling the music he broke
off several bars of It. while the young
lady looked into his face with her
dreamy gazelle eyes and pounded the
piano. The young man now finds hitrt
self the defendant In a suit for $5.n(if
brought by the young lady for alleged
breach of promise to marry. Of course,
it has produced a sensation In the mu
sical circles of Davis Junction. The
young men who are given to painful
vocalization have already banded to
gether to secure nn official Insjs-ctlou
of sheet music during the summer
solstice, to the end that each piece may
have its specific gravity, temperature
and volatility duly registered on the
outside cover. It is also recommended
that music of the sizzling kind that
will thaw out frozen water pipes be
marked with large red "danger" s
bels. The sons of the rugged yeoman
ry of the bucolic solitudes that have
more voice than sense must Ie protect
ed from the wiles of the clever maid
ens who tempt them with music that is
laden with midsummer proposals In

Smoklng Kaffirs.
The Kimtx'riy knfflrs are extremely
fond of cigars, but they smoke with
the lighted end in their mouths. When
this peculiarity was first mentioned to
me I supposed that my informant was
cracking a somewhat vacuous Joke, but
to my amazement I saw numerous In
stances of the reality in the compound.
The native first lighted his cigar by
the ordinary method, then fuming it
around deftly he arranged the hot,
glowing end In the mouth, and, tucking
away his tongue In his cheek, proceed
ed to Inspire and expire the fumes,
gradually consuming the whole of the
cigar. The smokers assured me that
the process was warm, comforting,
delicious and far superior to the usual
mode. On snlequeirt trial I found
that the knack Is less difficult to ac
quire than might be supposed.

RECOLLECTIONS OF GREAT MEd
Justin McCarthj Telia Home Oood
btorlea of Sleu Me Ha Met.
Of the great men be has met Justin
McCarthy has some exceileut stories
K relate. A few of these he rc-eutly
recounted In a lecture in the Tyne
Theater, Newcastle.
Among his most cherished memories
Thackeray. Those who knew Thai k-
eray from his book will readily con
ceive that he would take infinite delight
In telling a story against himself. Here
Is an anecdote that he used to relate:
Thackeray found much pleasure iu
taking long walks Into the country.
When on one of these excursions with
a brother Journalist, "Jacob Omnium,"
who, tall as Thackeray whs, was even
taller than the author of "The New
comes," the two gentlemen came across
a country fair. Observing a tent where
"giants" were exhibiting themselves,
they agreed to enter. When Thackeray
was preparing to pay the usual admis
sion fee the attendant at the door re
marked: "We make no charge to the
profession, sir."
An Instance of very smart repartee
on the part of John Bright Is told by
Mr. McCarthy. Mr. Bright, unfortu
nately, bad on one occasion to leav
his parliamentary and other duties on
account of an affection of the brain.
Recovering from the attack, Mr. Bright
resumed his active Interest In public
affairs. But In the course of a debate
a member of the House of Commons,
with surprising and Inexcusable Inde
cency, replying to Mr. Bright, said that
that gentleman had been suffering
from a disease of the brain. With
comparative self-restraint the famous
repealer retorted: "That Is a disease
which Providence itself could not In
flict ujon the noble lord."
Mr. McCarthy remembers very well
the only speech he ever heard the great
Duke of Wellington deliver In the
House of Lords. It made a decided Im
pression upon the future Irish leader.
The man of iron wore a blue frock coat
and a pair of white duck trousers, the
only person be knew, except his friend,
Gibson Bowles, who adopted such un
mentionables. A bill was under dis
cussion and Wellington criticised It
adversely. The j eer in charge of tbo
bill remarked bitterly that the noble
duke did not understand the bill. Then
Wellington rejoined: "I have read I.
tnree times; and If, after that, I don't
understand the bill I must be a
fooL"
Among the anecdotes Mr. McCarthy j
relates Is one concerning himself. At
the close of a lecture In Glasgow he
turned to the chairman and said he
hoped he had not spoken too long. "Na.
na," said the Scotchman, "aw then'c
ye hae had a vera patient audience!" -London

Changes Color at Will.
A human chameleon who changes
color upon coming Into contact with
various hues lives in Manchester, N.
H. So strange a characteristic would,
of course, command for its tiossessor
a good salary In a dime museum, but
in this case the possessor is a lady who
has no desire for notoriety and lHks
upon the phenomenon as a dreadful
affliction. It Is caused by disease, of
course, but the physicians have never
been able to determine the nature of
the complaint. The color of her eyes
remains brown and her hair black, but
her face and hands change to suit the
color of her clothes. She does not dare
wear ribbons nor any of the shades of
blue, red, green or yellow. In pure
white her face Is ghastly, and the color
of her hair anil eyes makes It even more
so than it would be if they were light
er. Black renders her so dark a bru
nette that there might be a strong sus
picion that she was not of the Caucas
ian race. She, therefore, weurs none
but sulslued grays and browns, which
render her less noticeable. The afflic
tion, for it Is a great affliction, came
upon her gradually and Is steadily
growing more pronounced.
Materials tor Burnt Wood Work.
As of old the master wood carvers
and violin makers hoarded flawless,
dry tyiod, so must the whmI burner of
to-day keep a vigilant eye upon the
lumber yards, and lay lu a stock of
flawless, dry wood. His material can
not be too well seasoned. It must be
white, free from gum and soft; white !
because contrasts are wanted, and free
from resin that it may not turn black
with age. As It Is the flts-r of the wood
which Is blackened or carbonized, not
the resin, it is obvious that the freer
the wood Is from gummy sutstances
the better. The most satisfactory fire-
etching has been done on panels of
French poplar, which is soft, white,
I close grained, and free from gum. The
common white wood or yellow poplar
of America yields readily to treatment
with the hot Iron, and can be success
fully used in conjunction with harder,
rarer woods, as beneath the magic
touch of the burning tool It becomes
rich aud olld. The harder woods are
more difficult to work, but, by combin
ing the natural grain of woods like
maple or oak wit the rich burnt tones,
beautiful results may be obtained
