THE MINISTER'S STORY.

snows AppreoiatHMi.
Bev. Dr. Britt of Omaha, who offi
ciate as editor of The Veteran, dearly
loves a pood story and can tell one as
vrcU aa listen to one. Dr. Britt was for
year a leading miciiter in the Metho
dist church, but resigned on account of
ill health. He served in the Uuion ar
niy for four years and earned the right
to wear a badge of the Grand Army of
the Republic, and his service in the ar
my makes bim peculiarly fitted for kis
position of editor of the Grand Army
organ of the department of Nebraska.
A few days ao Dr Britt was telling
of one of his ministerial experiences. It
occurred years ago in Illinois.
On the coldest n'ght in the winter of
J 678 Dr. Britt retired to bed in a well
wanned bedchamber and prepared to
Bleep the sleep of the just Just as he
was dreaming of a donation party that
did not eat more than it left he was
aroused by a knock at the front door.
When he answered the knock, a man
stepped into the room and shock the
enow from his coat.
"I want yon to go out near Mott's
echoolboute and marry a couple," said
the stranger.
Mott's schoolhonse was nine miles
frota town, -ad Dr. Britt naturally ob
jected to traveling that distance through
a blizzard.
Why not wait until mcmiag?" que
ried the doc-tor.
"It can't be did, parson," said the
etraufit r. "The man has got to start for
t'oLth Amtrica in the morning an
want to take a wife with him. His
j.-irl has tlejdily refused him np till
three hours ago, an as he's got to start
tomorrow he wants to marry her an
take bir along."
Dr. Britt hud been married just long
enough to appreciate the situation, and
finally consented to go. He wrapped
himself up as warmly as possible and
took hi place on the spring seat of the
lumber wagon that was to convey him
to the bridal scene. It was the coldest
ride he had ever experienced and re
minded him of that icy night before the
Sunday that Donclson surrendered. Bat
the home of the bride to be was finally
reached. A few neighbors were gather
ed, and as soon as the preacher was
thawed out he performed the marriage
cercmoLj.
The next morning the bride and
groom started for tkrath America and
rode to the railroad station in a lumber
wagon with Dr. Britt The doctor went
to the station with them, and just be
fore the train departed the groom called
him to one side and thrust a sealed en
velope into his hand.
Dr. Britt thrust the envelope into his
pocket and hastened home. Calling
Mrs. Britt into his study, be opened
the envelope to gaze upon his fee.
The envelope contained a f 1 bill and
a 50 oent shinplaeter. Omaha World-Herald.

James Payn tells of a well known
singer many years ago who in the pride
of his heart greatly exaggerated to the
tax collector his own assessment "The
fact is, " he confessed to the commis
sioners, "I have not 1,000 pence of cer
tain income. " "But are you not stage
manager to the opera house?" 'Tea,
but there is no salary attachod to it"
"But you teach?" " Tea, but I have no
pupils. " "Then you are a concert sing
er." "True, but I have no engage
ments. " "At all events you have a very
good salary at DruryLana" "Avery
good one, but then it's never paid."
Under these circumstances the tax was
remitted.

UNCLE SAM'S MENAGERIE.
Aiiimala Kept at the Department ot Ag
rl olt.r. roe ExpertmewtaJ Pnrpoaca.
It is not generally known that the de
partment cf agriculture has a menagerie
In connection with it, but each is the
casa The menagerie is not a very large
one, nor dors it contain any raro cr
strange animals. Mott of them are of
the domestic variety.
It is a part cf the division of animal
industry, and the animals are used to
develop interesting cases of disease and
to illustrate the effects of an epidemic
cr a particular kind which the division
may wish to experiment on with a view
i stamping it out and to tst various
kinds of foods vt which a trial is thought
to be efficacious.
Comprised in this collection of ani
mals are rats and mice, guinea pigs,
rabbits different sorts cf fowls, some
cattle and aheep and a few others. The
larger of the animals are kept at the
breeding place of the department, on
the Beuuiiig road, while others are dom
iciled ia tho basement of the division
of animal industry laboratory, near the
bureau of engraving and printing.
Dow a in the basement, under the lab
oratory, whicb was visited recently by
a reporter, were seen a number of coops
and cage:, in which were grouped guin
ea pigs, rabbits and chickens. The
animals srenied to be perfcly at home
and formed a seemingly happy family,
as some guinea pigs were in the cage
with rabbits. One of the little white
and black creatures was nitibling at the
whiskers of a sleepy looking rabbit,
which blinked contentedly, as if it en
joyed the operation or was too lazy to
resist any trespass on the part of the
guinea pig.
A dilapidated looking chicken, which
had much the tame appearance as has a
tramp who has been forced to saw wood
fur a raeal at a "friendly inn," rested
on top of a cage. - The guinea pigs seem
ed to be the life of the place and ran in
and out with apparently little or do
concern whether "school kept or not"
On some of the cages where the rab
bits were confined, printed in large
black letters, was the word "rabies."
Upon the cards also were the warnings
to the attendants and others not to put
their hands in the cages. This meant
that the animals bad been inoculated
with hydrophobia virus, and it was
therefore dangerous to handle the ani
mals. A further precaution taken in
such cases, it is said, is not to inoculate
animals carnivorous by nature, as they
become terribly ferocious, or any ani
mals whose chief means of defense is by
biting.
A cat or dog, for instance, will strive
to bite when afflicted with the disease,
while a rabbit which is purely a vege
tarian, will simply mope and die with
out making any resistance.
It was stated that one steer, which
bad the "blackleg," remained at one
of the experiment stations for about
eight years, and the persons there really
became attached to it Washington

CLEO'S THRIFTY MOTHER.
Wnohed and Ironed the Dancer's Clothe
and Walked Miles For Twenty Cents.
The parsimony of foreign celebrities
who come to this country has been fre
quently amusing to Americans. Thero
have been some very striking instances
of it in recent years, but the mother of
Mile. Cleode M erode seems to have car
ried off the palm in this respect Sal
vini, it is said, was so penurious that be
bought a sandwich on the stive t for 5
cents rathr than pay for his supper at
a hotel, and one of the stories told about
him on bis last visit to this country was
that once in Philadelphia he gave the
porter of a hotel a penny and told him
to buy him three tacks. The actor had
discovered that his trunk was damaged,
and he wanted to repair it himself.
I Tamaqua was notorious here for his
stinginess. It was said that he sold the
tickets sent to him in view of his artist's
privilege and hired bis own brother as a
' valet because he could be got at a cheap
figure. Then be nsed to make him roll
his trunks around on a truck at tho for
eign custom bouses rather than pay the
porters a fee for the work. Herr Van
Biene marked aa a curiosity and sent
back to England a hotel bill of fare on
which he had marked the price, fl.SO,
for a tenderloin steak as one of the won
ders of an extravagant and youthful
country. It may have been nothing
more than good business judgment
which prompted Mile. Calve to look for
a business manager while she was here
and then express the greatest astonish
ment that such an assistant of the most
capable kind could not be hired for $10
) a week.
These are 6ome of the stories told
bout the highly paid foreigners who
come to exhibit themselves here. But
Cleo's mother holds the record. It is
said that she astonished the servants at
i the Imperial hotel by washing her
' daughter's clothes in the bathtub and
ironing them herself. On the day before
they returned to Europe the ballerina
and her mother were seen on lower
Broadway. They had gone down to one
of the exchange offices in order to get
1 100 in French money. It was raining.
An acquaintance met the two just as
they were coming out of the office.
"Why, that wretch inside." ex
claimed the mother indignantly, "wants
to give rue only 617 francs for $100."
Then- lime, la Mere de Cleo de Merode
put up her umbrella with a mighty em
phasis and stepped out on to the side
walk. "Why, a man offered me 518 up
town. But I thought I could get 520
down here. Now we shall have to walk
up town, for otherwise there will be no
profit lfit for us." Then Cleo and her
mother started to trudge up town. The
dancer received $9, 000 for her appear
ances here. New York Sun.

Ian MneUren en Scott.
"Scott was all gold, and even the
nuggets are not enough; the gravel
ought to ( sifted and the gold dust
gathered in, for Scott had such an afflu
ence of knowledge, legend and poetry
that he did not write by measure, but
put his hand into his pocket and threw
out money that any might pick it up.
What one is afraid of is that Scott is
being ra'sed to the elevation of a classic,
and that is the same thing as taking a
man out of the house of commons, where
he is an active figure, and placing him
in the stately seclusion cf the house of
lonis. I do not know a single page of
Scott that is not readable, and I do not
know a single page that would shake a
lull's faith or bring a blush to a wom
an's thvik. Why do not people read
Scott as they ought to? Some say that be
is not interesting, and others object to
his style. Why, Carlyle himself brought
the charge against Scott that be was
amusing. Amusing! One of the grand
est functions of fiction is to be amusing
in the right 6ense that of lifting up
the weight and care of daily life from
men's minds by leading them into re
gions of sentiment and romance. "
The Kearast Approach.
An English tourist visited Arran, and
being a keen disciple of Izaak Walton,
was arranging to have a day's good
sport
Being told that the cleg, or horsefly,
would suit his purpose admirably for a
lure, ho addressed hinistlf to Chribty,
the highland servant girl, "I say, my
girl, can you get me some horseflies?
Chrioty looked stupid, and be repeat
ed big question. Finding that she did
Hot yet comprehend him, he exclaimed :
"Why, girl, did you never see a
Lorscfiy?"
"Naa, sir," said the girl, "but a
wanse saw a coo jump ower a prsahi
pioe." Rambler.

Slum property apparently has its
drawbacks, though it is generally re
garded as tbe most profitable, for most
cf tho owners do not as a rule allow
such trifles as repairs to reduce the
amount cf the rents.
"This work is breaking np my nerv
ous system, " said a man who bas been
ccllcttiiig rents for years in some of the
went f luiLS. "I am really beginning
to ft 1 that I shall meet my death at it
"Much ill feeling of which I am tbe
victim is engendered between landlord
and tiUtct over the question of repairs.
It dots liot pay to be always repairing
scch broken down property, thongh of
course repairs are always being asked
for, and some people have a decidedly
nnpleaiant manner of trying to impress
on n.e the necessity for such.
"They ere continually alluring me
into all sorts of undseirable traps. I
nearly broke my neck once by walking
cp a dark staircase in which a few
boards were broken and loose, and the
woman who had asked me to walk np
calmly told me to get my master to
have it mended. If there is a dark, rick
ety staircase without a banister, I am
sure to be asked to walk np it and on
cne occasion I was nearly frightened out
of my wits ly my head coming in con
tact with some banging paper and plas

when tluy hear I am about, put pails of
water and broom handles in the dark

other preparations far bestowing similar
delicate attentions on me.
"Only recently a woman asked me to
come and look ct tbe awful slate of re

to a large cepboard and opened it and

VICTIMS OF GOITER
Tbe IlesM Is IlrenKht on by Drinking
Snow Water.
The vauVy of the Rhone bas been
quite noted for it gniter victim, al
tlioigh I am happy to say that through
the iucreused watchfulness cf be au
tlx ritica there now is au abutement of
the discaso. Many different causes arc
assigned to the b rriblo affllctiou this
enlargement of the glands of the throat
goiter, or "big neck," as it is some
times call ol and even tbe best inform
ed arc far from being unanimous as to
its origin or prevention. The peasants
theuiKt Ives say it is brought on by the
habitual use cf snow and glacial water.
Tim water is so cold it acts as a counter
irritant and so in'llaiiies the throat, but
this explanation hardly holds, as tbe
inhabitants of the upper regions are not
so of u-n afflicted as are the people in the
lower valleys. Tho uso of chemically
impure water, especially hard water, is
given as a cause.
Tho experiment has been made where
the water of certain wells was nt d to
the exclusion of all other water. With
in a short timo goiter symptoms begau
to manifest themsclvis whero none
had been before. Sometimes this dis
ease is epidemic. An instance was
noted where in a garrison oue out of ev
ery 20 men becamo afflicted. Iufants
are seldom born with goiter, but after
it once taki s hold the progress of the
disease is very rapid. I believe that it
is rarely fatal, but because of this cn
larcment of the gluuds and the conse
quent oistiuuremect of the throat it is
niort repul.-ive, aud yet the natives are
so accustomed to seeing it that they do
not ueeiu to cure. It probably is simply
a source of discomfort rather tban mor
tification In fact, in some portions of
France. Italy and Switzerland a gniter
is a thing to be prized and to be exhib
ited, for ii possession exempts a man
from mil:; y service. Young men have
been know u to resort to certain wells
supposed to convey this poison to the
blood tur.t they might evade conscrip
tion. l;cn Savoy was annexed to
France, vigorous measures were adopt
ed to stamp out if possible this hateful
disease. There was a heavy penalty for
drinking the water of forbidden wells,
and then the little children were treat
ed in tbe hope of curing them. Lozen
ges of iodine were administered, and
out cf 6.CC0 children 2,H)0 were cured,
aud more would have been helped had
not tbe parents iguorautly opposed the
giving of tbe rt medics. Tbe villages al
so were cleaned and sanitary measures
insisted upon For, aside from all other
causes, it is quite agreed that goiter may
be transmitted or bo sporadic. Like
diphtheria, it is a filth disease, and of
ten has its origin in the negligent hab
its of tho villagers. These peasants re
fuse to live elsewhere than in the old
"dorfer" (villages), each morning going
far away to the fields, but returning at
night to their overcrowded homes,
where men, women and children, cows,
goats aud donkeys dwell together fra
ternally. Chicago Inter Ocean.
SHOWED HIS BAGCAGE.
Thero Wasn't 31nrh of It, but It Satisfied
the Clerk.
It is not always necessary to travel
wis.li three or four Saratogas, a dress
suit case, a uuudle of rugs and a bird
cape iu order to obtain good accommo
dations at hotels.
Occasionally there does exist through
out this hospitable land a hotel which
docs not require a certificate as to a per
son's ancestry, status in life, past his
tory aud future movements before its
clerk permits coin the privilege of a
room. At least this is tbe firm belief
advanced by a young Chicago couple
jut back from their wedding trip.
Down last one day the train wended its
way through the woods aud heights of
the Adiroudacks aud miles away from
civilization halted at a lone platform
bordered by a piny wildness too allur
ing to lie eliuiited by westerners freeh
from prairie lands.
"Train stops I boor and 15 minutes,"
ununuucod tbe young husband who had
made a flash for the conductor. Out on
the platform and up tho charming road
wandered these two, and time flew.
However, they kept en eye ou their
watches aud reached the platform with
ten minutes to spare.
- Bet the train was gone.
A luue man perched at the end of the
platform explained in a bored way in
the face of their indignation that it was
15 minutes and not I. hour and 15 min
utes that the train stopped.
" When is tbe next train?" the trav
elers begged.
"There isn't any," sweetly sai4 the
native.
"Where is a hotel?" they shouted.
"Up tbe road the other way," the
sphinx said in a tired way and turned
to watch the antics of a grasshopper.
Up the road the other way they went
aud discovered in the wilderness a ho
tel with a haughty clerk, electric lights
and all modern improvements.
"Any baggage?" inquired the man at
the desk as the young man registered.
The travelers gasped in consternation
as they stared wildly at each other with
tbe sudden shock of realizing that troua
Ecanrtraveling bags and umbrellas were
speeding miles away from them.
"Ob, yes!" gulped the young husband
lirily. "Buggage of course, ' He
plunged into one pocket, drew out a
small comb, his wife's powder box and
its accompanying square of chamois,
which he gravely laid before the clerk.
That geutleman never moved an eye
lash. "Front!" he called. "No. 2271"

A negro's juicy appreciation cf pos
sum in, at was well illustrated upon a
recent iiccaiii when a lady with whom
the ;arrat r is acquuintnl paid a visit
to Now Orleans. She told bim the
ftory. She was walking down Cliartre
street curly one morning, intending to
vihit the celebrated French market of
the Crescent City, and ou her way she
met a very old colored man coming
from tho opposite direction, evidently
from the market, as ho was carrying in
one band a posum and in tho other a
small s-tlit wcoden banket of sweet po
tatoes. Tho eld man's face was b ant
ing with good naturo aud wreathed iu
smiles of anticipatory pleasnre. He look
ed so joyouily into tbe face cf th. lady
that f be, tots could not help but smile
at bim, whereupon he held tho possum
up aloft and said, "Oood eatin, missy,
goodeatin." She ."-topped for a moment
lot ted at tho childlike, happy face of
tho old negro and said, "So yon like
possum, do you?"
"Liko possum, missy! I loves pos
sum. Diu-e ain't no eatin liko possum.
De possum am good, bnt do gravy
with sweet potatoes is better. Did you
never cat possum, missy? Deu you
didn't know what good eatin was. But
niebbe yon all wouldn't know how to
cook Mr. Pcssuui, fur dar's ebbyt'ing
in do kuow bow."
"Well, then, tell me bow you cook
it," she said.
Tho old man set the possum aud po
tatoes down ou the pavement, or, as
tbey call it iu New Orleans, the "ban
quet" and with a look of earnest con
centration began with: "Now, don't
you never forget jest what I'ze gwiue io
tell yon about how to cook de pos-sura.
Well dc fust t ing you does is to get
your possum. D.it may be easy fur you
nns, but 'tiiu't fur me dat is, always.
Well, den, when you's dun got your
possum yon skins him fust Den you
puts him into do pot with cold water
an put do pot over a hot fire, an den
yon arbilcs him not too much fur
you do&u't want to lose any of his nice
sweet fat Deu yon takes him ont of de
pot on you dries him iu a clean towel.
Den you pnts him into a big fryin pan
Den you scrapes de skin oJT your sweet
potabxs au yon puts dem iuto de fame
pan with Mr. Possum. Den yon has
your stove red, an den yon puts do pan
an possum au potatoes iuto da oven
an deu go away fur a littlo while, but
not too long.
"Den when yon comes back yon puts
in a littlo hct water, an den you begins
an bastes do possum an de sweet pota
toes, an you keeps on a-bastin an a-ba?t-ia
till de possum is a good trown
j st'like my color an de sweet potatoes
is soft an jnicy on de gravy is almost
black an plenty of it Den you takes it
out of di oven, an den you seta do table,
uu deu well, den yon bars dc doors,
fur de smell of cooked possum goes a
long ways, an wheu you have only ouo
possum you doau't want much com
pany besides yourself. "
Now, there is your recipe for cooking
possum and given by probably one of
tho bct chefs for that di.-Ji in the world.
