COLOR OF RAGE. Discovery That lied Affccls Men Sim- | llarly to Animals. Why does the bull so strongly object to a red rag? While the professional physiologists do not. as yet. appear to have found any satisfactory explana tion of the fact, a French manufactur er of photographic materials professes to have discovered that bulla are by no means the only members of the animal kingdom who are excited by anything red. A large number of hands are cm ployed in the manufactory, both male and female, and most or the work has hitherto been performed in rooms to which all the light that was admitted came through panes of red glass. Hard ly a day passed without some terrific disturbance taking place among the workpeople. Now it was a duel al most to the death between two of the tnen, now between two of the women; sometimes the melee was general. "Workshop regulations" were absolute ly ignored, and no amount of fines or other punishments seemed to have any permanent deterrent effect. This state of affairs was assumed, until recently, to bo inseparable from work carried on in uncomfortable conditions. At length it occurred to some bright spirit that the red panes of glass might be at fault, and it was decided to try what the effect of green panes would be. The effect was instantaneous. Froni that day a sudden peace fell upon the whole workshop that had never been known before. Bickering and lighting ended as if by enchantment, and voice of man or woman was never heard raised above a whisper. Flower's Experience In Congress The late Roswell P. Flower, of New York, used to tell some amusing stories of his Congressional experience. "The House of Representatives is the only place I ever got into where money didn't count," he remarked the last time I saw him. two months or more before his death. "A rich man is act ually handicapped there. In the first place, a country member is naturally prejudiced against the Representatives from the city, particularly those from New York city. They seem to think that the New Yorkers are a lot of high waymen. You find the same spirit in national conventions and State legis latures, and the fact that a city dele gation wants something is a good rea son why a countryman should vote against it. The easiest way to kill a bill in Congress is to have.the Now York Chamber of Commerce send in a memorial asking its passage. Then every countryman will vote against it sure. "When the city member is rich that makes him all the worse. During the first session I was in Congress I spent more than SIO,OOO trying to convince my fellow members of the House of Representatives that I was a good fel low. 1 gave them dinners and wine tind picnics and set it up for them every , hance I got. and while they enjoyed it as much as anybody, it only made them suspicious. Tuey could not understand why I should spend my money enter taining them without some base motive behind it. I was a city man represent ing a country district. In other words 1 was a wolf in sheep's clothing, and i hey were very shy of me. 1 didn't ask anything of anyl>oily. 1 only wan led to be popular and give the boys a good time, but the more 1 spent on them the worse they got. "Toward the close of the first ses sion," continued Mr. Flower, "after ev erybody in the Hon.* had accepted my hospitality and drunk my wine and eaten my terrapin, 1 tried to get a bill passed—a bill giving a pension of sl2 a month to a poor old woman up in my district, whose husband and son had died during the war. The cost of one of my dinners would have paid her that pension all the rest of her life. Some how I couldn't get that bill up for a long time, and when l did get it up pretty nearly everybody on the Demo cratic side voted against it. I went over to Joe Blackburn and 1 said: 'Joe, why in the old Harry don't you [ fellows vote for my bill?' and he took j me over in the corner and gave some, good advice. He opened my eyes to ; the situation, but I didn't believe him. 1 could not conceive that the Democrat ic members of that House were such confounded fools as to suspect me of 1 trying to play thetu for suckers, and : I says, 'Here, Joe, you take that bill and see if you can get it through.'! Darned if he didn't call it up the next day during the morning hour, and it ; passed without objection; but if they j had known It was my bill it wouldn't have got a vote. "This feeling wore olf after a while. They found out that I wasn't a high wayman or a conspirator, but just an ordinary good fellow." Curious Christian Names 1 remember hearing the following! story from the late Canon Itardsley, author of "English Names and Sur names." There was once a woman "a little 'cracky,' I think," said the i Canon, by way of parenthesis—who 1 had a son whom she had christened "What." Her idea seems to have been that when in after days he was asked his name, and kept saying "What." amusing scenes would follow, which was likely enough, especially if the bo\ was careful to pronounce the aspirate. Such a scene did, I believe, occur once j when he went to school, and was told, as a newcomer, to stand up and furnish certain particulars. "What is your name?" asked the teacher. "What," blurted out the boy, amid the laughter j of the class. "What is your name?" asked the master again, with more em phasis. "What," replied the boy. "Your name, sir!" roared out the infu riated pedagogue. "What. What!" roared back the terrified urchin. The sequel I forget, says a writer in Notf. and Queries, but I believe it was one o: those cases in which the follies of the parents are visited on the children of; the first generation.

LOST THEIR MINDS MEN MADE INSANE IN THE PHIL IPPINES. News and Notes From the War in the Philippine Islands, Classified and Condensed for Busy Newspaper Readers. • Lieutenant Gilmoro and nineteen other American prisoners, rescued from the rebels arrived at Manila on Saturday night from Vigan. They were found on December 18 near the head waters of the Abalet River, af ter they had been abandoned by the Filipinos. Although tanned and ruddy from exposure, Lieut. Gilmore is weak and nervous, showing the results of long hardships. He speaks warmly of Aguinaldo and very bitterly of Gen. Tino, declaring that while In the form er's jurisdiction he was treated splen didly, but that after he fell into the latter's hands he suffered everything. After the party were captured they were all taken to San Isidro, where Lieut. Gilmore, who had been wound ed in the knee, recovered from the effects of his injury. They were then marched to Vigan, where, under Aguinaldo's orders, they received ex cellent treatment. When Gen. Tino arrived at Vigan, however, they were thrown into jail and were held incom municado for three months. Gen. Tino, who appeared to have been a bloodthirsty individual, issued orders condemning to death any natives who were friendly to the Americans. Lieut. Gilmore wrote five letters to the General asking for food and blank ets, and requesting that the prisoners be allowed to take exercise. No at tention was paid to these requests for some time, but eventually Gen. Tino visited the prison and promised th;it the Americans should have what had been asked for. Needless to say the promise was never fulfilled. The lieutenant in command of the party told Lieut. Gilmore that he had re ceived orders from Gen. Tino to kill all the American prisoners, but he said that his conscience forbade him to commit murder, and he therefore intended to abandon them to look out. for themselves. The following soldiers, declared to be insane, have been sent to Washing ton, 1) C„ from the Presidio Military Reservation: Sergeant Thomas F. Col lins, Company G, Sixth Infantry; Ser geant Owen H.

The loss of the insurgents was severe. One hundred prisoners were taken. SPORTING NEWS. "Tom" Sharkey is responsible for the statement that in the future he will act as his own manager.

A HONOLULU BELLE^"" Mill UeUn Wilder, Halrtll to bugir Mil* lion*—Boautlful and Ecoantrlc, Honolulu, the city of the Pacific isles, lias a policeman. Her name Is Helen Wilder. She is a beauty and the heir ess of many millions made In Ha waiinn sugar. She is twenty-three years old. .Miss Wilder is a regularly appointed special officer of the Hawaiian police force. She wears a soft felt hat on which glitters the silver star that pro claims her a policewoman. She also carries a revolver and is not afraid to use it. She has made several arrests unaided. The honor of being a policewoman was nol forced upon Miss Wilder. To be exact she solicited it. The Hawaiian heiress loves children and animals, and it was in protect her small and lowly friends that she asked an appointment on the police force. It was reported recently that the cap lain of a steam-!. ;i that had put Into port ai Honolulu i'Utl mistreated his children. .Miss Wilder boarded the ship and found tlmt for a slight offence the captain bad locked the children in a stateroom for several days, keeping them on a bread and water diet. To the astonishment of the protesting cap tain she promptly marched him down the gangplank and straight to jail. Recently Mis* Wilder has come into the courts through her zeal as a "cop." She delected one Olaat' Hollefson, a street car driver, in the act of driving Illvl.KX KI MA U WILDER, a mule whose shoulder was bleeding from a cfiatling collar. She compelled him to leave Ids car and passengers and go with her lo the police station, where she had hlni "booked" for cruel .ty to animals. llollefsou claimed that as Miss Wild er had no warrant the arrest was Ille gal. lie claimed $,">,000 damages. The coins decided in favor of Miss Wilder. Miss Wilder is a lielle. She can dancu like a fairy. She is past mistress of the feminine art of coquetry. Two men testify. In gloom of spirit, to the fact thai she is an adept at the game of hearts. She rides a horse with the daring of a van<|iiero. She handles the reins with the deftness and daring of a stage driver. She swims and rows with the grace and strength of a Kanaka. But wherever she is or whatever she may be doing, she carries a pair of hand cuffs to snap ou the wrists of the en emies of children and animals. News has recently come b.v» way of Sou Fran cisco that Miss Wilder has been mar ried. Sumlny In Mexico. Any unfortunate citizen of the Unit ed States who, from an unwillingness to work or take part In the various con cerns of life, has acquired a reputation among his neighbors for being trifling, should emigrate at once to Mexico. Life thct'e seems to wear about as seri ous an aspect as a comic opera, and such a citizen would be looked upon as a worthy addition to the chorus. One of the important things in Mexi co is lo own a game cock, and on Sun day mornings if you leave him tied by the leg to a convenient awulng post while you attend services In the church, you will excite no comment among your neighbors. In fact, the voice of the priest is often almost drowned by Ihe crowing out on the street. Cock lighting and bull-fighting, as every one knows, occupy the same relative" places in tho affections of the Mexican as baseball and football hold in the American heart, and Sunday af ternoons Is reserved for them. The police in an In a Mexican town Is an official of importance and dignity. His uniform may be dirty and ragged, but he wears a cartridge belt and six shooter In addition to his club, and Is usually seen with a cigarette in his mouth. Five or six of these worthies will drag a poor trembling wretch to the police station with a flourish worthy of the capture of a brigand. The .Mexican wears a hat Covered with gold and silver braid, that Is usu ally worth more than all the rest of his anil his family's wardrobe, find It is this, together with the gay>striMd blanket and the swagger of the follow that gives him such nn air of stage make-up. It is always dangerous to judge the people of a town by those most'in evi dence ou the street, but if upon lo set a valuation of the pOWle I saw in some of these Mexican tdwhs I should be tempted to make my cal culations by Ihe dozen or hundred rather than by the single native. With all their love of finery, neither tl»e men not - women are much given to gay col j ors. Black and white predominate, but the bright sun makes It all gay and ! fetching. When a Mexican grows old he seems I to shrink up until there Is little to be : wen of him but a big hat and a scrap of blanket pulled tight over his meagre shoulders. His beard and hair stand out white and distinct from his dark. I shriveled face, which looks like that of a mummy In lts frame of white. ! Life in one of these towns is as abso ! tutely different from what one sees In an American village as though it were n bit of Egypt or India. Yet It may be seen at the end of a three-days' journey from almost any of the Eastern I and Northern States, and is well worth 1 the journey.—Harper's Weekly. FIRE RECORD.

There was danger that the rotary might jump the slippery track and go plunging into the canyon thou- [ sands of feet below. The last report I say 6 that the rotaries were able to keep the road open. Between He' nett and Dawson the weather !i continued clear and cold. The (• graph line has been down betwt Selkirk and Dawson for ten days.

The report, which provides for assessment of members of all Irish societies, was adopted. There were about five hundred dele gates present. It was decided that Philadelphia shall be the headquar ters for the reception of funds and the direction of operation*. Klned for Not t'urin;' a Toothache. "An advertiser has to stick to the truth in South A: . rica." said the rep resentative of a la- : shipping concern. "I know that seen: incredible, but. it's absolutely true. Some years ago a dealer in New-Orli ins sent an assorted lot of patent medicines to an American agent at Santiago. Chili. Among the stuff was a lor of toothache drops, which were warranted on the bottle to cure the worst case of toothache in ten minutes. Here nobody would take such an assertion perlously, but down there it's different. The first man who bought a bottle made an immediate ap plication. and then pulled out his watch.
