Ferd Harlow ss THE CASH GROCERY The Tribvm CHARM OF THtf OLD SONGS The Old Favorites Arc Perennially Popular with All Classes j of People. i Old songs are the host , for they i carry us back fo the days that were radiant with sentiment and were part of poetry and ro- nance , declares the Kansas City Journal. They stir our natures In heir profonmlest depths , and , caching below the callous of our ictrescent hearts , play strange ac companiments upon the long dis- ised strings of our remembrance. Who can resist the subtle potency of those oltl songs that stop the world in tear-smiles that we may wave a salutation back through i rift in the storm of years to the y'outh and maiden of the long ago ? That the old songs are best lias > cen shown in the perennial popu larity of Patti's "Home , Sweet Home , " Emma Abbott's "Annie Laurie , " Jennie Lind's "Kathleen Mavourneen , " Christina Neil son's ' "Way Down Upon the Su wnnee Kiver" and Melba's "Coin- in' Through the Rye. " We do not ilways associate these immortal songs with ( he great singers who | have included them in their con certs , but the singers are often re membered because of the songs themselves. There are few who can remember the many acrobatic irias of tl.i splendid vocal artists who have commanded almost fab ulous sums for their singing , but no one can forget when they yield ed to popular demand for the old ; s. Palti or Sembrich or Melba - ba or Calve never had more sin cere appreciation in the suprcm est moments of her triumphs than when she descended for the time from the classics of foreign com posers and sang the simple love ballads that sent thrills through world-weary hearts and caused withered palms to stir in tremu lous applause. HOLDERS OF ODD RECORDS Waltz That Lasted Six and Three Quarter Hours Egg Eater's Capacity Other Marks. Thooe who fail to gain distinc tion through other means iieem to seek oddity t f performance , and every little while there appears a challenge from some ' 'champion egg eater" or other freak , says the New York Herald. The lO-quail-in-IO-days perform ance has been outdone by a man who recently ate a whole goost each day for : M ) days , the fowl weighing from ( i to U pounds. Other records in this line are fill soft-boiled eg js daily for six days , six quarts of beans inJO minutes , smoking 00 cigars in 11 hours without once taking a drink.

BLACK DEATH , RATS , FLEAS ji i j It Is Believed Tlmt Germs on Rodenta i Arc Accountable for Terrible - j rible Plngue. The origin and nature of the black death , which devastated Eu rope during the middle ages , has never been clear , sajs Collier's. It Heems certain that the infection j was brought by the ships of cer- , taintradcrsescaping from the Cri mea , where they had been at tacked by the Tartars at a town on the lliver Don. During the at- lack the Tartars were stricken * with violent plague , which caused i great loss of life among them. In | the hope of giving the curse to the j people of the besieged town , they ) thiew bodies of their dead into the town. Their- hopes were ful filled , and ( he defenders were also attacked by the plague. These traders took to their ships and sailed to various European ports , Constantinople , Venice and Genoa , leaving the black death everywhere behind them. This black death had certain striking1 features in common with the Born-1 bay plague of India. A careful search of the records of Indian history has shown Unit there had been an outbreak of plague in In dia just previous to the time of the Tartar siege and the introduc tion of the black death into Eu rope. These Tartars might very easily have taken the disease from the people of India. If that is the true story of the train of events , then the black death of the middle ages was the modern plague , adis- case which we know to be caused by a certain specific bacillus. Efforts have been made to learn the means by which this dis ease is carried , and what causes ] lead to an outbreak. Certain facts bearing on these points have lately come to light and may lead to a correct knowledge of the means of plague transmission. Itats have the disease and rat fleas have been examined and found to contain quantities of the plague bacilli. Ordinarily the rat fleas are not found on man. During ep idemics of plague , however , these rat fleas are found in notable quantities on human beings , and there is no evident reason why they may not inoculate man by their bites. Doubtless these things have something to do with the spread of the plague , although enough is not yet known to allow the whole chain of events to be made out. HISTORY IS A NEW STUDY. Recognition by Universities of Im portance of America's Story of Recent Dale. It seems incredible to stu dents of the present day that within the last three decades only has American history been con sidered of enough importance to be given u place in the study courses of our large universities , Ilcnhy Cabot Lodge , in the [ I Reader Magazine , says : ' 'A little more than 30 years ago a boy could enter Harvard college | and after four years graduate . J with the highest honors without , ' knowing af the existence of the t Declaration of Independence 01 ) when the constitution of the Unit ) ed States was framed. What was j true of Harvard was true of othei universities and colleges. Amor s ican history was not included n ithe scheme of the higher educa h tion. Boys entering college wen n required to know something ol g the history of Greece and Rome cbut not of their own country. Dur d ing the four years of the collegt s. course they had an opportunity t ( study the history of England am Europe , but never to learn a ugh ( > of the United States. This con l s dition of education was merely ai " ' indication of an attitude of mini 1 then passing away , but which IKK v once been predominant. The USH 10 al opinion seems to have been dm * ing the first httlf of the nineteentl " ' century that there was no Ameri 1S can history worth telling , npur ° 1' from the adventures of the enrli 11 * est settlements and the events ell ll > the revolution , wuicji were bet ! 01 connected so closely with the his I tory of Europe that they migh be deemed of importance.
