UNIQUE LIVING PICTURE
Chivalrous" Efforts' to Rescue an Imper
illed Housemaid While the Neigh
bors Looked On Ingenious Device
That Won Him Fam
Whon Jones berame a suburbanite
In the Oranges It was with Rome mis
giving. Hut he found the neighbors
congenial and then he thought he
would like It. Then came the Sunday
uiornlng when he slept late.
He was awakened by a tremendous
rapping on his door.
"t.et up! ("Jet up!" cried his wife.
"Mary is stranded oa the roof!"
Mary was the housemaid, a woman
of Immense beam and great depth.
Mary had decided that morning that a
rug needed dusting. She was shaking
It out Of the window when it slipped
from her grasp and slid down the root
of the extension.
Without thinking of conseiiucnrrs,
Mury crawled down the roof to the
edge and got the rug. Then she looked
back. A few seconds' contemplation
of the ang'e ord the smoothness of
the roof convinced her that without a
mountain stick and guides and ropes
there was no hope for her In return
ing the way she came. She surveyed
the surrounding landscape and then
peeped over the edge of the roof.
That, didn't reassure her. A careful
measurement would have made the
distance from the roof to the ground
about thirty feet. Then she screamed.
"Help! Oh, Mrs. Jones! Police!"
Mrs. .(ones looked over the situation,
became frightened and woke up her
husband. Hy the time Jones had
donned n dressing gown and appeared
at the window, most of his neighbors
and their servants were around the
house shouting advice to Mary. At
the sight of Jones's tousled head and
blinky eyes, they set up a cheer that
echoed and re-echoed among the hills.
Jones was not pleased a bit by the
demonstration. He thought he detect
ed a Jarring note In the cheers. The
work of rescue had to be done, how
ever, and Jones pulled himself to
gether. "Oet a ladder," he shouted, and
waited for his command to be obeyed.
Some one found a three-foot ladder
and It whs brought around to the ex
tension. When Jones thought It was
In place ho told Mary to step over the
idge of the roof and cn to the lad
lor. Mary peeked over and saw the
rpladder twenty-seven feet away.
"(iraclous. Mr. Jones," she shouted,
I can't reach that."
"Why not?" demanded Jones, who
as tired of being a living picture for
ala fellow townsmen.
"It's too far away," explained Mary,
and to convince Jones willing hands In
the crowd held up the stunted ladder
for Jones to look at.
With a roar Jones retired, while
the crowd cheered again. Mary, left
alone, began screaming with so
mucli vigor that the crowd informed
Jones in chorus that he was Inhuman,
but nobody made an attempt to help
him out of his predicament, aside from
making suggestions, some of which
were intended to be humorous and
others sarcastic.
Jones stormed around the house for
a while, becoming angrier every min
ute, and then remembered that In the
cellar he had a rope which he had used
in packing furniture when he moved
from the city.
Jones threw the rope to Mary and
told her to tie It around her waist.
Mary wan a little squeamish as to
what would happen after that and
Jones had to explain. The crowd up
roariously approved of the plan,
which gave Jones some doubts about
its outcome. He told Mary that after
she had tied the rope around her
waist he would keep It taut and she
could walk up the roof using the rope
48 a sort of brace.
The scheme didn't seem to strike
Mary as the most brilliant in tie
world, but she obeyed her master's in
structions. Hy the time she had the
rope fastened securely around her ex
pansive waist Jones had been dragged
half-way out of the window. There
was not enenigh rope to encircle
Mary's waist and at the same time
give Jones leeway, so she had to untie
the rope to allow him to climb back
into the house.
If a circus had struck town Jones's
fellow citizens that Is not the phrase
be uses to describe tbem couldn't
have been more pleased. They howled
at Jones until bis ears began to ache.
Jones bunted around the house for
more rope. He bad to upset every
thing In the cellar to get it, but final
ly found a piece that, added to the
Brst piece, would be enough to let him
' stay Indoors while Mary put It around
her walat.
The crowd waa pretty tired when
Jones appeared at the window the
third time, and he waa permitted to
throw the rope to Mary with a few
weak cheers. The scheme was a
great success.
Mary, with some trepidation, to be
sure, walked up the roof with the as
sistance of the rope and Jones, and
when she got to the top be "flung her
in the window," as he explained to his
city friends afterward.
To make matters worse a marked
copy of the newspaper was sent to
Jones's office. Now he has pence
neither at home nor at work. If
be can get his wife to consent lie in
going to sir up his suburban home.

APPLAUDED HIS SPEECH.
A Good Joke on Himself Told by Sena
tor Smoot of Utah,
According to tho chroniclers, Sena
tor Heed Smoot is not much of a
politician, nor yet a Hanlcl Webster
when It comes to oratory. He was
assigned by his Kopublican Central
Committee, therefore, to deliver his
maiden effort before the foreigners In
a southern t'tah village. Ills advent
had been widely heralded, and the
hall In which the meeting was to be
held was crowded with swarthy Swed
ish farmers when Mr. Smoot turned
on his eloquence.
The npplause was not all that he
had expected. Only one person, an
Old man on the front row, seemed ex-
coptlonally Interested. He applauded
wildly, laughed at all the speaker's
Jokes and manifested every sign of
excited appreciation.
After Mr. Smoot had finlshod, his
enthusiastic auditor arose to speak.
Feeling grateful the Senator deter
mined to show his appreciation in like
manner. The old man's remarks were
entirely In Swedish, which was, to
Mr. Smooth, denser than Greek, but
noi to be outdone, Mr. Smooth, fol
lowed the Inflections of the speaker's
voice and whenever he thought ft
cliiiiax was reached led the applause
wildly.
"I cheered and stamped on the
floor In a most undignitlcd manner," i
said Mr. Smoot, In relating the story, '
"and I was at a loss to understand
the curious looks centred upon me. 1

the speaker.
"Not a word,' I confessed, 'but It's
a good speech, Isn't It?'
'Well,' he replied, 'you may be in
terested to know that he's translating
your speech. None of these people
understand English.' "
A Terrible Tiger Fight.
A desperate encounter with a tiger,
resulting in the death of Mr. C. A.
Pelham Hogers, Assistant Commis
sioner of Chanda (India), Is recorded
In the Pioneer of India. Mr. Hogers
was out after a tiger at a place called
Homragarb, on April 22, nnd wounded
the animal, hitting It In the forefoot
The next day Mr. Hogers had an at
tack of fever and could not go out;
but on tho 24th he took up the pur
suit, and his men having ascertained
exactly where the tiger was lying, he
boldly proceeded to walk it up. The
tiger charged him suddenly, but he
managed to get in two shots, brenklng
one or both of the beast's laws. It
seized him, neverthe'ess, and a pro
tracted struggle ensued; the disabled
tiger, with Its Jaw and one paw shat
tered, being deprived of Its most
formidable powers of mischief. Mean-
while, Mr. Hogers's "syce." who had
accompanied his master with n spare
12-bore gun, nnd solid bullets, opened
fire on the tiger, and after ten or
twelve shots succeeded In dispatching
it. Unfortunately one of these bit the
sportsman, Inflicting a severe llesh
wound In the thigh. When delivered
from tho tiger Mr. Hogers was found
to have sustained a terrible clawing,
scarcely a part of his body having es
caped, lie was almost scalped, and
his right arm especially was badlv
torn. Nevertheless, he retained con
sciousness, and after a long and dis
tressing journey of 120 miles, was
conveyed to Chanda, where he died
rrom exhaustion six davs after thn i
accident.
Character in Necks,
Wise persons are always discovering
some occult kep to feminine charac
ter. Tests applied to the shape, tex
ture and color of a woman's hands, of
her feet, of her eyes and of her hair,
show virtues and shortcomings In uer
nature. The woman with the swan
like nock is said to be a creature
wIiobo mentality, to use a modern In
vention In words, dominates her ex
istence. Physically delicate, the long
necked woman Ib mentally much alert,
tut sensitive to an extraordinary de
gree. She Is timid and suspicious, yet,
where her trust is betrayed, bears her
woe In silence without a sign.
The throat that denotes obstinacy
is short and thick and usually belongs
to the girl with athletic shoulders and
not many Inches In stature. The girl
with anatomical traits of this sort is
extremely good-natured, though she
obtains her own way by persistence.
She Is alHO noted for her executive
ability, and on this account does not
mind mounting plntforms or organiz
ing societies that will help her sex a
step forward on the road to complete
emancipation. Chicago Tribune.
Brief and from the Heart.
IJttlo Alice always said her prayers
egularly before going to bed. One
night, however, as she rested her
head on the pillow, she remarked, In a
questioning way;
"Mamma, my prayers are so much
longer than the one nurse says in the
morning. Can't I say bers when I'm
tired?"
"Does the nurse pray in the morn
ing?" asked the mother, with a puz
iled look.
"Yes," said Alice sweetly. "She
says, 'Lord, have I got to get up?' "
Two-year-old Willie, who takes a

Hi! HI DR
The Justice Insisted on Land
ing His Big Fish.
THEN HE TIED THE KNOT
Comedy as Well as Tragedy Is Eternal
All Over the World Story of the
Justice of the Peace All Ends
Well.
There Is always something to see, to
bear, or to learn, wherever you go.
The eternal tragedy, the eternal com
edy, go all over the world. Yesterday
Art showed me a farmhouse, where ft
few months ago ft discontented soul
killed his wife and himself, shooting
his wife while she held ft three-months'-old
baby In her arms. "We
were going to lynch him then," said
Art artlessly, "but as I rode through
the edge of the wood back of the house
I saw him lying there looking at us.
He was dead. He had shot himself
three times. Nervy, wasn't he?"
Again, as we rode on, he showed me
ft little house by the roadside. "Old
woman lives there, eighty-five years
old," said he. "The town keeps her.
Her husband died a while ago, and
she can't run the farm. She used to
be an English noblewoman years ago,
and she ran away with the coachman
and came to America. They lived here
ft long while. I guess she was an Eng
lish noblewoman all right, too, for
once in a while she comes down to
town and gets a pint of alcohol, and
she drinks It straight, and never bats
an eye."
Hut, as I was going to say, I saw an
odd-looking fly In Art's collection, a
combination of squirrel hackle and
apparently quill nnd silk body. Art
said that fly was a very good one,
very hurd to wear out and very use
ful on the local streams. "The fellow
that makes tbem lives here," said he.
"His name's Hubbell. He's the Jus
tice of the Peace." I somehow liked
the sound of Hubbell, J. P., and pres
ently looked Into the matter. The
room of R. W. Hubbell, Justice of the
Peace, Is more angling shop than Jus
tice shop, and here I learned how
these very killing local flies are made,
ha-ing a long talk over these and
kindred subjects.
"I find that early In the spring this
white Bilk grub I tie. with a bit of
worm on the end. will kill trout be
fore they will rise to the fly. My first
fly Is the black gnat but you see I tie
It different from any black gnat you
ever saw. The next Is what I call my
Morning Helle, squirrel hackle and
green body, and so. Then I make a
mosquito, with gray body, and here's
a grasshopper with yellow and brown
body and gray squirrel hackles I
never use any feathers In any of my
fly-tying. I'm proud of my grasshop
pers. You don't have to chase 'em,
and they don't come off. They're bet
ter than the real tiling.
"Fishing?" said the Justice, tiping
back Judiciously. "Well, It's more Im
portant than anything else, some
times If not all the time. Hut there's
some folks who don't seem to under
stand that. Now, not long ago I had a
young fellow and a girl up before me.
They'd been engajred, but had a falling
out, and I guess the fellow was going
to leave the girl because she changed
her mind. I knew the pickerel wre
biting out here In the mill pond, and it
was time to be out, so I heard the case
fast as I could, lined the young fellow,
sent 'em all out, and went Ashing. In
less'n n' hour I heard some one holler
In', and saw a fellow motioning, over
the bank. It was the town marshal.
I didn't pay any attention to him, for
I didn't want to be disturbed, but
blmeby he motioned so hard I started
over towards him, nnd just as I did I
got a bite, and hooked a big pickerel.
At last I heard what the town marshal
wanted. 'Say!' says be, 'them folks
wunts to git married!'
" 'Well, why don't they, then 7
says 1.
" 'But they want you to do It,' says
he. Wouldn't that cramp you? Here
I'd just fined him, and now I was
busy.
" 'There ain't no hurry about that
said I. I thought maybe she'd change
her mind again. All this time that
pickerel was Just chargin' round, and
I had all I could do, to keep him out
of the weeds.
"'They can't wait!' hollers the town
marshal. That made me mad. Couldn't
wait! Here I'd Just fined the man!
'You go on buck an' tell 'em they got
to wait!' says I to the town marshal,
'I'm busy, and I allow it's a sight more
Important for me to get this pickerel
'n It Is for them to get married.' So
I went right on and played my flBh,
ftnd at last I got him in the boat. He
was a beauty. Then I went on in and
married 'em, but not before. I want
to tell you. Some folks are Just natur
ally unreasonable." Forest and

PROFESSIONAL TASTERS.
Lucrative Industry Based on a Culti
vated Palate.
There are many people in this world
who make a good living by having a
cultivated palate. Their sense of
taste Is such that by exercising It
they can be assured of a bljr yearly
Income.
Any one who visits the toa district
In New York will see In the offices
of the big tea dealers men who for
ever taste tea out of tiny cups. These
are the tea-tustcrs, and though they
never drink tea, their sense of taste
Is so accurate thnt they can tell nt
once the grade and value of the tea
in the boxes from which their sam
ples are taken.
In every large wine dealing estab
lshment there is a wine taster, who
never swallows wine, but whoso busi
ness it is to taste samples of all wines
and deride upon their quality. He
can tell when ft wine Is ready to be
put on the market and Just what Its
grade is.
Hut the most curious branch of the
tasting profession Is one which has
lately become a paying business for
women In Paris. There sevena! wo
men earn good salaries by driving
from one house to another Just before
dinner Is ready to serve and tasting
the various dishes which the cook
has prepared.
They taste, they criticise, thoy rec
ommend addition of some flavoring
or seasoning, and then rush away In
their carriages to the house of the
next customer.
They are called dinner tnstcrs, nnd
ft part of their duty is to suggest Im
provements In the manner of prepar
ing dishes.
Thus, If one cook Is inclined to use
too much salt In his dishes and an
other too little, these things are Jot
ted down, and a report made to the
master of the household, who thereup
on requests the cook to reform his
way 8.
This business of dinner tasting Is
said to be one which cannot be fol
lowed for any length of time without
Intervals of rest, for, paradoxical as It
may seem, a dinner-taster, If she
kept continuously at her trade, would
be In danger of starving to death.
Of course, the taster never eats of
the food which she examines, but
merely tastes It, and this continual
tasting of so many different kinds of
food gives her a disgust for food of
all kinds, so that It Is with the great
est difficulty she c-an bring herself to
eat a square meal.
So once In a while the dinner
taster has to take a month off; out
she gets excellent pay while she
works, nnd can afford to loaf at least
one-third of the time nnd eat some
thing. Washington Post. i
Underwater Signalling.
The cause of three-fourth of the
shipwrecks and loss of life at sea
seems about to be removed. It Is not
a wire or even the air, but the water
this time that Is used to transmit
sound vibrations. For some weeks
there has been Installed on the steam
ers of the Metropolitan Company of
Koston an apparatus which may yet
make it possible for the vessel beat
ing about the coast In a storm to
know where the rocks and shoals are
when the fog will not permit the light
to be seen and the noise of the wind
drowns the sound of the bell-buoy or
the siren; for a battleship to know of
the approach of n submarine, and a
flshingsmnck of the approach of a
liner off the Hanks of Newfoundland.
The aparaUiR Is extremely simple. It
amounts to nothing more or less than
ringing a bell under water which the
pilot or captain can hear telophonlcal
ly. Screwed on both sides of the
vessel's hull are two receivers, which
ure connected by wires with thel
wheelhouse. These receive the vibra
tions from tbe bell banging In the
water on the side of the lightship.
The navigator has only to put the ear
piece to his ear and ascertain on
which side the vibrations are the loud
er, in order to know the direction of
the lighthouse and his own position In
the fog with comparative accuracy.
For fishing vessels a ball receiver
has been provided, and this Is used to
get more delicate Intonations aboard
ft steel vessel. The value of the ap
paratus was put to a good test recent
ly when the steamer James S. Whit
ney was approaching the Hoston light
ship on her return from New York.
The lighthouse was obscured by rain
and fog. Thanks to the signal ap
paratus, the captain Immediately
heard the bell and got his direction.
It was not until five minutes after
that he heard the lightship's whistle
for the first time. Collier's Weekly.
A Day of the Pope's Life.
The daily life of Plus X. Is as busy
and as simple as that of his predeces
sor, Leo XIII. He rises at 5, cele
brates mass at 0, which Is served by
his private secretary, Mgr. Hressau.
After hearing another mass In thanks
giving, he breakfasts; this consists of
a simple cup of black coffee. Then
follows a walk of about an hour, dur
ing which a visit Is made to a little
grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes erected
In the Vatican Gardens. The rest of
the morning up to 1 p. m. is devoted
to correspondence. Interviews with sec
retaries and high officials, public and
private audiences. At 1 o'clock tbe
Pope dines, and his dinner consists of
one dish of meat. After a short siesta
he recites his breviary and then re
sumes work until 0, when he takes a
walk In the loggia of the Vatican.
Visitors and pilgrims are frequently
received there. From 7 until 9 o'clock
Plus X. Is again at work, and then
private devotions engage his attention
until about halfpast 10 o'clock, when
the day's work of the new Pope comes
to an end. London Daily News.

Pearj's Last Word
Explorer Telii ol His Advance to the North
What is believed to he the final
word fr tn Commander R. E. Peary
before hU return from his attempt
to reach the North Pole was re
ceived by the Peary Arctic Club of
Brooklyn last week. The message
came from Etah, North Greenland,
and reads:
"Etah, North Greenland, August
1 6, 1905. Cape York was reached
August 7, twelve days from Sidney.
The voyage was unusuilly favora
ble. No ice anywhere. Natives
nnd dogs were secured and joined
the Erik at North Star Bay, August
9: transferred to Erik and Roose
velt proceeded to Etah immediately
to overhaul machinery and prepare
for ice fighting. The Erik visited
all the settlements, securing natives,
dogs and walrus, joining the Roose
velt at Etah, August 13. Natives
are in prosperous condition; plenty
of meat, abundance of dogs and lo
cated this season detper in Melville
Bay and Inglefield Gulf than for
years. The Roosevelt overhauled
machinery, filled with coal and
leaves Etah for the north with
twenty-three Eskimo men and some
two hundred dogs, August 16. Ice
extends from LUtlefield Island to
Cape Isabella, but apparently is not
heavy. This may make the estab
lishment of base at Cape Sabine
difficult. No ice was seen south of
Littlefield Island. All wel'. on

A later report from St. John's,
New Fouudland says:
The Peary expedition auxiliary
steamer Erik returned here from
Cape Sabine, Greenland, last nignt,
reporting that the Arctic ship
Roosevelt with Commander Peary
on board, left Cape Sabine for the
north August 21. The officers of
tbe Erik fear the Roosevelt will not
get very far north this winter, con
ditions in the northern waters being
very adverse. Ice floes ore unusu
ally heavy already, and much bad
weather has prevailed. On the
voyage to Greenland the Roosevelt
proved an eminently satisfactory
vessel.
