SULLIVAN JBKfo REPUBLICAN. W. M. CHENEY, Publisher. VOL. X. London has more than doubled ita population in the past half century. Collectors of autographs remark that, while the typewriter never will supplant holograph letters altogether, it will mako them scarcer and more valuable. The Boston Globe flguros it out that 31,000 out of our population of 65,- 000,000 own $:>(■>,250,000,000 of our Nation's total wealth of $1)2,010,000,000, otherwise one man out of every 2000 owns more than all the rest of the 2000. The announcement that California would shortly becoino the seat of an ex tensive perfumery industry is now re ported to be without adequate founda tion, as the flowers are said to lack tho strength of odor required to make the manufacture of extracts profitable. Determined not te lose its reputation as the great obituary paper of the country, the Philadelphia Ledger, with what the New York Advertiser esteems ccmmendable alacrity, has secured auto graph obituaries of all tho members of the Peary relief expedition. It could not have been a very cheerful occupation for the writers. A woman of inventive mind, dis covered by the New York Sun,is experi menting on a rubber coating for iron stone china used in restaurants and do mestic porcelains. She thinks these should be as feasible as the noiseless tire nnd tho mounting of chair leg* iu libra ries and reading rooms. Incidentally she expects to find in her invention a large fortune, but her aim is distinctly phi lanthropic. The New York Independent believe? that the cultivation of athletics at girls' schools and colleges is likely to receive some stimulus from an award made by the United States Treasury Department to Miss Bertie Burr, of Nebraska, for rescuing two young women from drown ing. Miss Burr, who learned how to swim at Lisell Seminary, Auburndale, Mass., will receive, not-the silver medal awarded for heroism, but the gold medal only granted for cases of extraordinary daring and endurance. A novelty in business enterprise is soon to be introduced iu New York City, according to tho News. It may be tersely described as a beuevolent pawn shop. The mere suggestion of a pawn ship with an aspiration higher than three per cent, a month makes this subject highly interesting. It ii said that cer tain wealthy persons, connected with the Charity Organization Society, have determined to establish pawnshops throughout the city, to bo operated at cost. Bcnevolcuco and philanthrophv usually fail in the conduct of business enterprises, however, and the project of a cut-rate pawnshop may disappoint its well-meaning projectors. Flying machines for use in war liavs engaged no little attention of late on the part of inventors. Maxim, the designer of the famous gin, claims to have pro duced one which can ho controlled. Ho | declares that he can till his aerial car with explosives and hover in it over the city of London, holding that great me tropolis at ransom to the extent of as many millions of pounds as he chooses to mention. Thm situated he can announce his terms by dropping a small package containing a statement of them and his ' ultimatum of "Cash or Crash!" His | contrivance is a cylinder of aluminum ! containing a three-fourths vacuum, its collapse being prevented by strong ribi inside. It is propelled and steered by ' electric gear, and is further sustained and balanced by the wings of a great aeroplane, with an automatic arrange- j incut of a compensatory nature that brings the machine immediately lurk to j the horizontal when it tends to vary I therefrom.

And I would drink it in With the scent of the roses rich and rare; But still the battle's din Kings in my ears and deafens me; 1 cannot hear the strain. The noise of the world, its misery. Throbs like a bitter pain. But now and then, as in despair I seek to rend the bonds. Comes a burst of harmony on the air To which my heart responds; And then the echo of the fray A moment seems to cease; Though the wondrous harmony dies away. That moment brings me peace. And then I pray 1 may retain A peacefulness of heart. Though the warrior's laurels X fail to gain, Or riches of the mart.

BY EMMA A OFPEH. PO, I can't say I enjoy George's sick days at home," said Mrs. Par fitt. "He's sure to be poking into things and making himself generally disagree able. Dear boy! he isn't that way any other time. I'll war rant you, Conny"— Mrs. Parfitt shot a humorous glance at her husband's ex tremely pretty young cousin, who stood, in street attire, waiting for her—"that he won't want to give me the money for my new jacket to-day at all. But there's the Carpenters' reception Thursday,and— Wait for me! I'll try it." And Mrs. Parfitt ran down stairs, with a v.iliant smile. She found her husband in the library. He was young and comely, but a strip of red flannel on his throat, a shawl untidily worn, and a gloomy expression of coun tenance, did not improve him. "I'd stay at home, dear," said Mrs. Parfitt, "if there was anything I could do for you." "There isn't,"said her husband, short ly. "This beastly cold has got to wear itself out." "Conny and 1 are going out for a lit tle shopping, then. And if you can let me have the money for my spring jacket now, George? I'm a little late about getting it as it is, you know. It's the tan one, with a striped satin lining—aw fully pretty —ai Brtght's—" "I don't know anything about any jacket!" George snapped. "I'm harassed enough in mind and body, Kate, without your persecuting me." "In mind?" said Mrs. Parfitt, patiently resigning herself. This was one of George's days at lioroe, "Yes, in mind!'' He threw off his shawl, and sat up and glowered at her. "What do you think about Hugh Dudley and Constance, anyhow?" "Hugh Dudley and—Constance?" Mrs. Parfitt stared a little. "That's what 1 said. He's coming here all the time, isn't he? What's he coming for?" Mrs. Parfitt looked into her lap. A smile dawned on her fresh lips. "I—really, I—" she jiurmured. "I feel responsible for Constance,'' said George, scowling impartially at everything. "I asked her here, and if shi does anything to—to disgrace the family,l shall feel to blame for it. Hugh Dudley I Would Uncle Joe or Aunt Agnes want her iO marry Hugh Dudley? A mere— mere—" no fit term presenting itself. "I don't like himl" Mr. Parfitt proceeded, warmly. "In the coffee busi ness! And I don't believe he knows who his grandfather was!" Sirs. I'artitt looked oddly demure. "Isn't the coffee busiucss creditable, George, dear?" she queried. "And the Dudleys are a very good family, George, really, and everybody likes Hugh." "I don't!" George retorted. "Hugh Dudley!—when, with the slightest en couragement, Thomas Danfoith—" "Oh!" Mrs. Parfltt murmured. "You needn't think tint has set inc against Hugh Dudley, though. It hasn't —it hasu't at all. It isu't merely that Tom's a friend of mine; it's the differ ence in the fellows. Tom's a brick—a brick, Tom Dauforth is!" said Mr. Par fltt, with an emphu-u which amounted to ficrcenost. "And forCoustance Beryeu to deliberately take up with the worse n:nn of the two, wheu she might have the better, it galls me! I'll never in/ito her here agaiti, lulu I you that—nor any body else! ' He flung back into his chair. "1 think Conny will—perhaps—be living litre before 1 .tig, dear,'' nis wife rejoined, mildly. She had retreated to the hall.

They were engaged, you know, and then they had some ridiculous trouble or other; and Grace and I have been so chummy ever since I've been here that Mr. Dudley came right to me with it. He's been here two or three times to tell me things to tell her, and I've told her all of them, for Grace was foolish and hasty, and it really wasn't Mr. Dudley's fault at all, and I've been anxious for th*m to make it up. And now they have. He came this morning to get me togo there with him, and he met mo on the street and we went. And Grace began to cry when she saw him, and I came away, and—" Constance was sympathetically tearful. "We'll never quarrel, will we, Tom?" she demanded, tenderly. And Tom stroked her hand. "Kate!" cried Mr. Parfltt, sternly. But his wife, laughing till her pink choeks were red,- slipped her hand through his arm. "You're a dear, good boy," he avowed, "and I was a mean, drendtful girl to do it! But, George, you were so cross about my jacket that I wanted so— you're always a little cross when you're at home sick, you know—and I thought you'd know it so soon anyhow, and it was a temptation, and—l'm awful sor ry." said Mrs. Parfitt, pleadingly. "Where's my pocket-book?" said George. "You shall have that jacket. I meant you to all the time. I'm over joyed and rejuvenated and cured, and I'm going down to the office."— Saturday Night. Drawn by the Wehfootetl Cows. The wobfooted cows who inhabit tho marshes along the St. John's River in Florida—l know that they are webfoot.ed, for Captain Lund says so, and Captaiu Lund never lies—are of some use after all, it seems, aud this is the how and the wherefore of it. In the merry month of April the water in the St. John's gets very low, and the two big steamboats, Frederick De Bary and City of Jacksonville, which go up and down it during the winter season, are sometimes hard put to it to get over the numerous bars. If it were not for the webfooters, Captain Lund says—and Captain Lund never lies—they would never get up to Sandford and Comfort Cottage, and would have to come North a month or more before they could be ol service. The worst bar of all is Volusia Bar, and here four times a day, at the hours when the steamboats are due, a number of Floridians put iu an appearance with from four to eight yoke of the gay aud festive kind, almost too thin to cast s shadow, hitched up for business. Then follows a scene such as few steam boat men have ever witnessed. The cows are hitched to the boat by three stout chains, the drivers iai*e a shout, and with all steam on and a mighty tug-of* war, the stout iron steamboat is dragged through the mud and sand and landed in deep water again. Captain Lund says he has a set of iron tires which he puts on the paddle wheels the first of May, which enable him to take short cuts across the country, thus shortening the distance by about one half, and as Captain Lund was never— no, never—known to draw the long bow or to tell a story which was not strictly according to Iloyle, down go tho tires across country and all. And yet there are people who persist Ingoing to Europe strange siarhts for to sec. It is otic of the wonders which no man, ami not very many hundreds of womeu, can fathom.—Now York Herald. Freak of u Thunderbolt. The annaU of a French Academy of Science tell of a tailor's adventure with a thunderbolt. He lived in a house pro vided with two chimneys, one for a fire place and the other for a stove,tho latter not iu use. D.tring a thunderstorm a tremendous report was heard, and every boly thought that the house had been struck by lightning. Instantly a blue flaming ball dropped into the flroplacj aud rolled out into the room, seemingly about six inches above the floor. The excited tailor ran around the room, tho ball of tire playing about his feet. Sud denly it rose above his head aud moved off toward the stovepipe hole in the coil ing, which had a piece of paper pasted over it. The ball moved straight through the papar aud up til.- chimney. Wheu near the top it exploded aud toru the chimney into thousands of fragments. The sight of the debris left by tho ex plosion showed the family what would have been the consequences had it ex ploded while on its gyrating passage through the room.—St. Liuis llepublic, \ Struuge Disease.

THE MISSISSIPPI'S FLOOD. WHAT CAUSES THE GREAT RIV ERS ANNUAL OVERFLOW. Rivers and Bayous Hare Built Up Ridges on Which They Flow—ln undating lho Bottom Lands. EVERY spring tho Mississippi Riv er, swollen by the melting of the snow in tho Rocky Moun tains and by the nbundnnt spring rains, threatens with inundation the low lands of Mississippi and Louisi ana. Not infrequent it breaks through the bonds which confine its course and spreads its muddy waters over thousands of square miles of that fertile region, destroying the fields of young cotton and cane, and burying the fertile soil be neath layers of river mud. Those who read accounts of these in undations, of their wide-spread destruc tion and of tho immense areas covered by them, may be at a loss to understand how the mere fact of this river overflow ing its banks can lead to sucli extensive floods. These bottom lands are a peculiar re gion. Originally a shallow arm of the gulf, they have been filled by deposits from the river. Even at present nine tcnths of the region is a marsh covered with grass or cypress forest, through which flows the Mississippi with its branches, and which are intersected by countless bayous, forming an intri cate network of water courses. All tho streams, with scarcely an exception, flow upon the tops of ridges. These rides are low, rising but ten to twenty feet above the intervening ares of marsh, and range iu breadth from a few rods up to perhaps four miles. The stream bed is in a notch upon the summit. These ridges have been built by tho streams. In former times, before the streams were confined to their beds by levees, they overflowed their banks with every high "tide," as the flood is called. The river, always muddy, is in time of flood heavily charged with scdiiucnt, brought perhaps from the high plains and the Rocky Mountains. Wbcre the stream is rapid it has no difficulty in bearing onward its load of sediment, but, when its velocity is checned, as it is when the stream is suddenly broadened, it is lorced to deposit some of it. When the stream overflows its hanks it be comes thus broadened, its velocity is checked, and it consequently deposits some of its load, the coarsest material first, the liner material later. Ity this process of overflow have the rivers and bayous built up the ridges 011 which they flow. Tho ouly habitable and tillable parts of this region are the geutle slopes of these river ridges, aud upon these, which form but a trilling proportion of the en tire area, the inhabitants are congre gated. The roads commonly follow the river, running immediately at tho foot of the levee, and it is along these roads that the houses are found. The planta tions stretch in narrow strips buck from the river. The levees, which are built continu ously along both sides of the river and principal bayous of this region, are sometimes ton or twelve feet in height, and in time of flood tho river is fre quently full up to the top of the levee. One may ride nloug the road under the levee with tho water of the river live or six feet above his head. When the river is in flood the levees are patroled night and day by the in habitants, watching lor tin? slightest in dication of weakness. A thin stream of water the size of one's linger breaking through the lower part of the leveo may in an hour, if unchecked develop into a break or crevasse which can not be closed, and which may involve a loss of millions of dollars to the neighboring country. Such breaks are often caused by the bur rowing of animaN,or more frequently by rice flumes or openings throi,di the levees for the purpose of letting water into tho rice fields. Scarcely a spring pnsse* that such cre vasses do not occur from such trifling origin. Tho levee, once broken, the waters pour through, lapidly Widening the breach, and rush down the slope of thu river ridge direeily aa ay from the river. On reaching the swamp, the cur rent is broken aud diverted and the waters, spreading up and down sttcaut, gradually ri*e back toward tin- levees mi either side. They pour also through the swamp, anil extend to (hn ridges of neighboring streams, flooding the > ulti vated lands upon them. Thus it i-. o isy to nee that, since tiie whole country lies below tlu level of the river, if a way is onee opened for the water into the coun try.it may spread indefinitely and involve widespread ruin and destruction. —Cour ier-Journal.

Freaks of Human Vision. "I do not suppose this world looks alike to any two persons," said Thomas McHeury at the Southern. "A dozen of us were looking at the moon the other night. To one it appeared the size of a five cent piece, to another much larger than a cart wheel. To one it appeared a well-rounded globe, and to another a fiat circular piece of brass. I noticed this diversity of human vision once in Ualvestou, Texas. I saw a man named O'Dell shoot a fellow gambler named Quiulan to death. lie tired four shots from a large revolver. At the trial one man testified that Quintan had a knife lu his hand at the time of the shooting. Another thought it was a cane, while a third expressed the opinion that it was a billiard cue. I was standing facing him when he was shot, and would make oath that his hands were open and con tained nothing. Those who testified were disinterested spectators, and told on the stand what they honestly though they saw. The shooting began in a sa loon. Quintan ran out, followed by O'Dell, who kept shootiug. Some thought one shot was fired in the saloon, others thought three, yet all were look ing right at the two m»n. You often hear people say that what they see they know ; but they dou'l.
