Tx projde in the eleventh congres- sional district are fast finding out that their prominent candidate, Samuel L. Powers, Esq., Is one of the ablest moen wbe has been mentioned for the office of o ngressman for many years He is essentially the ideal polltictan in that he is butest, affable, magnetic, earnest and progressive We defs any candidate or any que else to match him in any par- ticular, Ile deseives the normnation and we have every teauch to believe he will get it. - Hyde Park Gazette.

The legal right of a baby to yell in New York city's linnts. whether the neighbors object or not seems to have been definitely est.t ished by the holding, under heavy ba . of a can- tankerous old bachel r who assaulted a woman living in his flat because her infant made such vocal disturbance that he was "unable to think." and then caused her arrest as the motber and mainta'mer of a nuisance Inas much as the average baby will yell when it happens to want to, whether t has any legal right or not. the in- cident is not important except as it cars for an expanation from those New Yorkers who are always crying aloud tbe praises of their city as to why a baby born and nurtured amidst the delights of flat life in the great metropolis should ever want to yell.

A man with n genealogical record not rasily ruatebed is Mose> Chamberlain, of Milton, Pa., born in 1.12. the twen- ty-third child of Col. William ('hamber- lain, who commanded a New Jersey reg- iment in the revolutionary war. He was married four times and had seven children by the first wife, four by the second, four by the third and eight by the fourtb. Only one survives, thongh their descendants numlwer over a thou- Band. The life of the survivor nnd that of h's father reaches back to 1736, when Washington was four years old.

A New York superintendent of schools says: "We have had more cases of corporal punishment to investigate this year than usual. Our boys seen more than ever given to fighting. I think it is due to the way in which most of the newspapers explnit the doings of prize fighters. Not only is a great deal of space devoted to prize fights, but the pngilists and scenes at the ring- side are fully illustrated. Now, all this has a bad effect on the boys, and is the cause of most of their disorderly acts."

Palmas shoukl not be kept in a very shady place. The danger in doing so consists in the haul effect shade has on the soil. It often sours away from the light, and this hrings on an nn- healthy condition of the roots, which sonn shows itself in the foliage. It as a good plan to have two sets of plants for room decoration. Give each set Its turn at the light. Ty this I do not mean that I would put them in strong sunshine. But I would place them near a window where the soil could get the benefit of direct light .- Ladies' ilome Journal.

Capt. Craigle Corroborates the Sto- rles of The Rich Gold

"Lape Nome, according to the ohl- timers, will be the greatest mining cump in the world. Nome City, ns it Is now called, is right on the coast of Behring spa. nud extends for some miles along the shore. Along the beach the miners rock out gold and make from $5 to $50 or more & day one man This sounds like a statement that ad- mits of doubt, Init it is a fnet Ote man told me himself he had worked with three others for 14 days, and they had rocked ont jus. $6,000, nll hard-earned gold, but they had it to prove the state- ment Then up nlong the several creeks-Anvil, Discovery, Snow Gulch. eta- the yield is really enormous The famous claim here is known as No. 1. on Discovery, und hns turned ont about $1,000,000. A few days ago a nugget weighing 30 olinees was found, and about 1 month ago one weighing n little over 19 ounces was taken from the sluice boxes on the same elnim. Same men have u centrifugal pump down on the beach below the town, and have slice boxes running back to the soil. called tundra by the natives, which is filled with fine gold of n very pure lunlity

The town has Increased in five months from ahout 25. tn 3.000 inhabitants, and it is thought when navigation opens in the spring there will be 30,000 or #),000 peo- ple here. Coal is $75 n ton, lumber $125 per 1.000; yet people are building and settling here. Our new quarters are very comfortable-frame covered with corrugated iron. We are all nicely set- tled for the winter. I am told the northern lights as seen here are beyond description. and the moon as bright and clear as crystal, which in a measure will have to make up for no day or sun. If our monthly mail scheme only

proves successful there are many worse places than Cape Nome, even though so isolated and distant. We hope for great things in the spring; more United States troops and better facilities for communication with the ontside world during the long fall and winter season."

A certain amount nf freshness is natural and desirable in youth, but there is a young man In social Wash- ington who is offensively and incura- bly fresh. One day last week, how. ever, he had a setback, which to most persons would have been ample for all purposes. He was at a tea, and had been presented to a young woman from Ohin who believes in heroic treatment of desperate cases, which she very soon perceived his to be. In the course of the conversation she suggested that something might be learned from the past.

"Oh." be said, "I am the heir of all the ages In the foremost files of time, and I can't waste my precious mo- ments looking back, like Lot's wife." "At least." she responded, with a sweet insinuation, "the result in the case of Lot's wife could acarcely be possible In yours."

"I don't quite understand," he said groping for her meaning.

"Don't you remember she turned into a pillar of salt ?" He understood it then, for a won- der, and somehow afterward the conversation Inst interest for him,- Washington Star.

The Wonderful Cinm.

The clam's body is completely shrouded in the muntle except for two openings, through one of which the foot can he pushed out, while the other is for the siphon what is commonly known ns the "neck" of the clam. In sume respects the clam may be better off thau other folks; for he has a little brain in his foot. lle also has gland which seuretes strong fibers, from which he spins a "hyssus," and hy It can attach himself to any object he likes. He does not have to search for food, but waits for it to come to Lim, and it always does. Ile makes for himself n burrow in the mud or sand und attaches himself to the ho :- tom by this hyssus. Then he thrusts his siphon up through the mud and water, und thus maintains communica. tion with his world. The siphon hus two tubes, the water flowing through one und out through the other. The clam lives on the minute organisms, an- imal and vegetable, found In the water -and gets a living that is so satisfac- tory to him that he has come to be adopted as a type of contentment and happiness .- Rockland Opinion.

Difficult Postoi Service.

A Yukon mail carrier writes to the general superintendent at San Fran- cisco, telling how he has hnd to sacrl- flce "celerity," one of the requirements of the "star" postal service, to "safety"* in some recent experiences. On his ar- rival from the trip up Forty-Mile river he found the Yukon jammed with huge cakes of ice, which it was unsafe to cross because of the great holes through which a man or mail pouch might easily fall. Whenever any mail has gone to the bottom in an ice jam, he Rays, every man thereabouts feels cer- tain that at least a dozen of his let- ters were in that particular pouch. So this cnrrier waited a favorable oppor- tunity, which came on November 6. when his party started forth at day- light. They made ten miles before sun- down, baving two sleds loaded with 300 pounds each drawn by dogs. The ice was piled so high In some places that they had to chop a pnasnge through it rather than attempt to go over. These are some of the difficulties that Uncle Sam's servants in the postal service have to surmonnt,-Yonth'R Companion.

No one who has not been an African kopje can easily realize it. It is not a bill so much as the stump of a hill what is left of it after ages of de. the nudution; but the special feature of It is that it is almost invariably covered with a breastwork of bowlders. Trop- feal torrents have washed awny earth and all the soluble components of the rock, and what is left consists of heaps and lines of detached masses of sandstone, ironstone or granite. The kopjes are the Boers' fortifica- tions, and they have any number of them .- Cardiff Western Mail.
