PeotiHnrltie* of Crtste.
One of the strangest peculiarities of
human nature Is its inclination to
Imitate the misdeeds of others. Crime
Is epidemical. A particularly dreadful
murder, the details of which are set
forth In all the newspapers, often has
the effect of inducing similar crimes.
One of the mi sons, and probably the
chief reason, why public executions
were abolished in Engl*" J .vas that
instead of acting as a deterrent the
execution had the contrary effect of
Inciting to murder.
In 1885 a woman of Geneva, named
Lombardi, killed her four children.
She admitted that she had been read
ing of a woman who killed her hus
band, and the very circumstantial ac
count had made her wish to imitate the
crime, but as her husband was dead
she killed the children. This is only
one instance out of hundreds which
have come to our notice.
The infectious nature of self murder
receives a striking testimony in the
following Incident: Dr. Oppenheim of
Hamburg had to examine the body of a
man who had cut his throat find had
died after sonte days of suffering. The
medico told his assistant that death
would have been immediate if the man
had made the cut in a way which he
illustrated, and he was startled two
days later to learn that his assistant
had attempted to commit suicide by
lacerating himself in that very manner.
The man admitted that he had never
thought of suicide until the day of the
examination and the doctor's remark.—

Prismatic Color*.
Mrs. Opie, the widow of the great
portrait painter, whom some one has
called the "Inspired peasant" never,
even in her old age, lost her love of
bright colors. A little girl, Emma
Martin, afterward known in literature
as Emma Marshall, visited her one day
and experienced a rare pleasure. She
says:
On a screen in her drawing room
were hung a number of prisms, which
were suspended from chandeliers be
fore the bell shaped globes came Into
fashion. I sat on a stool at my moth
er's feet, wondering what those long
bits of glass could mean. Presently the
brilliant rays of the western sunshine
filled the room.
"Now," said Mrs. Opie, "thou mayst
run over to that screen and give it a
Bhake."
I did as I was bidden. "Be gentle,"
Bald my mother in a warning voice,
but I gave the screen a vigorous shake.
Emerald, ruby and violet rays danced
on the walls and celling and delighted
me so intensely that I kept repeating
the process; then my mother, afraid of
mischief resulting, came and drew mo
back to her side. Mrs. Opie looked at
me and said:
"If thou lovest bright colors, thee
will never see anything more beautiful
than the rainbow God sets in the sky."
Con I*l \ot Report Golf.
When the amateur golf championship
was played at Wheaton in 1807 there
was but one Chicago newspaper man
who had the remotest conception of
what the game was. Accordingly, the
newspapers, with the exception of the
Chicago Tribune, agreed to syndicate
the work and put It all In this one
man's hands. The Tribune refused to
enter the combination and depended
upon the exertionns of a member of its
own staff. But the Tribune reporter
speedily realized his helplessness and
appealed to his brother of the syndicate
for aid. The latter obligingly handed
over his copy, and the Tribune man set
to work to make a few minor changes
so that its kinship to the original should
not be too apparent Later In the
evening he met his generous bene
factor and told him of the changes he
had made.
"In particular, the account of the
play at the sixth hole between Forgan
and Douglas. You said that 'Forgan
rimmed the cup for a half.' Well, you
know, old chap, that Forgan Is a bunk
er down town and a big man, while
Douglas is just one of those Scotch
men. It seemed to me rather cheap to
have Forgan doing that sort of thing
for a half, so I Just made it read that
'Forgan rimmed the cup with Douglas
for a hundred.' "—Washington Capital.
Anttt 'Mint I'lßhl Spider*.
Few more wonderful adaptations are
seen in the whole round of nature
than the webs spiders spin to entrap
the wary ant. They are not high hung,
lacy affairs, caressing every bf'Vze, but
low set, silken tubes stretched In the
grass, the crevices of rock or about
tree roots. Ants of every size creep
heedlessly into them. The spiders eat
them with relish, but occasionally a
very little spider and a very big ant
engage 111 a duel to tiie death. If the
spider can bite, the ant can sting, and
does it with a right good will. The
Spider does not try to get rid of such an
ant as he does of a wasp or bee too
strong to be safely attacked. Such an
Insect, which threatens destruction to
the web. is often cut out of it by the
web builders. The entangling cables
are not 100 1!, but the web rays neatly
snipped in two, first those underneath
and at the very last the highest fila
ment Often the letting goof such a
captive means destruction to half the
nest. But some spiders are wiser than
some people. They know not merely
whtu they have enough, but when they
have too much.

While they are accumulating knowledge
on the profound sciences, are often so
ignorant of their own natures that they
allow local disease to fasten on them to
the ruin of the general health. Back
ache, headache, nervousness, point to a
disordered or diseased local condition
which should have prompt attention.

The Echo at Work.
When we had climbed to the top of
the mountain, we observed an old man
sitting on a rock with a pair of field
glassed in his hands. Every now and
then he would look earnestly through
them and then whoop continuously for
a time with a vigor astonishing, con
sidering his age. For a time we ob
served him from a respectful distance
till finally, being naturally curious, I
went up to him. "Why," I asked, "do
you rubber that way and then yell so
loud?"
lie turned and eyed me calmly, with
a dignity which could have been born
of nothing but a great responsibility.
"If you talk to me." he said gravely,
"you'll take my attention, and I'll lose
my job. I. sir, am the echo at the
Mountain House down yonder."
At this point it became necessary for
him to howl again, and 1 retired much

Good Coffee.
It Is said by the best authorises that
while there may be r>u patented coffee
pots with more or less intricate interi
ors no Letter coffee can be made fn any
of them than in the common 2fi cent tin
pot. P.ut there is one important item
to remember: The coffeepot of any style
must be bright and clean inside. Old
grounds standing "in it or neglect to
rinse It clean and wipe it out will grad
ually cause muddy coffee In spite of
good material or the best method of
making.
Coffee is either boiled or filtered. For
boiling it should be ground rather
coarse, but for filtering It should be
powdered. Breakfast coffee is usually
boiled. To one cup of ground coffee
add one egg beaten with one-quarter
cup of cold water. Stir well together
nml then pour over five cups of boiling
water. Stir and set where it will come
to a boil. T.et It boil for three minutes,
then draw to the cooler part of the
range. Pour in one-quarter cup of cold
water and let It stand ten minutes to
settle. It may then be strained into a
silver pot which has been heated by
filling it with boiling water.
For after dinner or black coffee make
a boiled coffee of double strength or use
one cup of pulverized coffee and pour
three cups of boiling water over it, one
half cup at a time. Never allow filtered
coffee to boil.

An old rule for hanging pictures was
that water colors, black and whites and
oils should not be hung in the same
room, but this rule is rarely regarded
now. It is, however, inartistic to see
them arranged in the same group, and
a little care will easily avoid It. It has
come to be pretty well understood that
pictures should not be hung on a level,
though this rule does not mean that
there should be no symmetry or plan In
their grouping. Too heavy pictures
should not top very light one. A natu
ral sense of proportion must be regard
ed. With this general idea in mind
square, oblong and oval pictures may
be satisfactorily arranged, always pre
mising that the pictures are worth
hanging In any event. Some -of the
modern bargain counter art depart
ments have to answer for serious sins
of taste.

The Rmrntlalii of Beauty.
There is a distinctive something—a
manner of dressing or a correct carriage
—that makes the American girls head the
list by their natural right to precedence.
They have their faults, to he sure, but
such faults as are easy to correct. Loud
voices are the commonest lapses into the
unbeautiful and simple. I never realized
this so much as I did on my last voyage
from the other side of the Atlantic. On
shipboard there was a crowd of girls who
had been finishing their educations
abroad. They sat ou deck and chattered

ANTIQUE FIENDS.
Women Who Spent] Their Time and
Money Unearthing Old Relic®.
The antique craze is like u malig
nant fever when it seizes a woman,
she rarely gets over it. There are
three stages—the first when she simply
admires the collections of her friends,
the second when she begins to haunt
auctions and "read up," the third when
she spares neither time nor money to
obtain some broken down treasure and
when if 4 fair means fail she will not
hesitate even at foul ones. This sounds
dreadful, 1 know, but I have in mind a
perfectly respectable woman of my ac
quaintance who was so fascinated by
a brass knocker on the door of an un
occupied farmhouse that she crept
there in the dead of night and—well,
there is no other word for it—stole it.
Women in the second stage fall easy
victims to the so called antique deal
ers. The profits of these people must
lie enormous, for certainly the expenses
of the trade are not gVeat. It does not
cost much to bury modern colonial fur
niture until the worms and the mold
have done their artistic work; neither
are ovens or acids particularly expen
sive when you can sell a plate which
cost you a quarter for $7 or SB. Now
adays I hear the path of the antique
dealer is made even more easy. There
are factories which turn out real four
teenth century Nuremberg chests (with
| p-]i r 1 ,: 1
SHE HAUNTS AUCTIONS,
the wormholes in them) and real colo
nial spinning wheels (with histories at
tached to them, if desired). But, of
course, tlie woman relic hunter knows
nothing of these things.
She goes on paying her good money
for musty and rickety furniture, bro
ken plates and hangings falliug to
pieces. She bids against herself at
auctions and makes up by cheating un
suspecting country people. When she
visits at some old house, she goes about
slyly nicking the palut off the furni
ture in search of possible inlaying or
rummaging in the attic for forgotten
treasures. She is a pest and a bore,
and people are afraid to let her into
their houses, but what would youV It's
her way of enjoying life, and Just now
it's a way very much in style.

The child is the father of the man,
so the proverb runs, but altered to"the
girl is the mother of the woman" It
would be even more true. The other
day 1 came home from an afternoon
tea thoroughly disgusted. The entire
conversation had been gossip and fault
finding—servants, neighbors, husbands,
It was all the same thing. I could not
bring away one single improving
thought, one wise or witty saying.
Just as 1 was about to enter the nurs
ery I heard my small daughter's voice
raised in an eager whisper, "It's a se
cret, Margie, and you must pwomlse
you won't tell." I could hear Margery
gasp with excitement "Hope I'll die if
1 do!" she muttered in the same stage
whisper. "Well, then," cried the small
Informer "what d'you fink? Judy
cheated dis morning! I sawed her!"
At this moment I entered the room.
The whole episode reminded me un
pleasantly of Mrs. Binks' confidences
at the house 1 had Just left These
confidences involved the reputation of
a neighbor. "But of course this is
strictly confidential, my dear," she
whispered, and of course she had told
the same thing to 20 others, and before
nightfall every one la town would
know.

One of Sothern'n Joke*.
That Inveterate Joker, Sothern the
aetor, had made an appointment with
Toole, the comedian, to dine at a weli
known London restaurant. The hour
of meeting was fixed and Sothern ar
rived some few minutes before the ap
pointed time. An elderly gentleman
was dining at a table Jit some little
distance from that prepared for the
two actors. lie was reading a news
paper which he had comfortably ar
ranged before him as he was eating
his dinner. Sothern walked up to him
aud striking him a smart blow between
the shoulders said:
"Hello, old fellow! Who would have
thought of seeing you here? I thought
you never" — The assaulted diner
turned around angrily, when Sothern
exclaimed: "I beg you a thousand par
dons, sir. I thought you were an old
friend of mine -a family man whom
1 never expected to see here. I hope
you will pardon me."
The old gentleman growled a reply,
and Sothern returned to his table,
where he was presently joined by
Toole, to whom be said:
"See that old boy? I'll bet you half
a crown you daren't go and give him
a slap on the back and pretend you
have mistaken him for a friend."
"Done!" said Toole, and done it was
immediately with a result that may
he imagined.
Not an Ednratrd Doit.
In the "Floresta Espanoia" of Mel
chlor de Santa Cruz the author has an
anecdote of Cardinal Pedro Goncalez.
That prelate noticed that one of the
priests In his retinue, a Biseayan, car
ried a short sword under his cloak.
The cardinal reproved him and told
him that it was wrong for a cleric to
carry arms. The Biseayan replied that
he carried the weapon to defend him
self if he were attacked by a dog. The
cardinal said that in case he saw a dog
running at him he should begin to re
cite from the gospel of St. John. The
priest acknowledged that this was a
good way, but held to the dagger, "be
cause there are some dogs who do not
understand Latin."

Tipping the Iluteher.
Did you ever buy your own steaks
and get the worst In the shop nearly
every time? An old friend has had
that misfortune, and he Is always will
ing to pay two or three cents more a
pound than any other customer. Hav
ing listened calmly to his title of woe,
I Inquired if he had acquired the
practice of tipping the butcher. Tip
ping the butcher? No! He thought
it was a sufficient tip to offer the
two or three cents more a pound.
"That offer," I tried to explain, "goes
to the proprietor direct, or his block
man thinks yon are trying to make a
thief of him by Inducing him to hold
out for himself the extra price. It will
never work.
"Just say to your cutter: 'See here,
old chap, I've been dissatisfied with
my steaks for some time. Come out
and take a drink, and tell me how to
•elect good meat.' He's too busy.
Then slip a dime into his hand and
say, 'Have a glass of beer when you
get out,' or a quarter and say, 'Have a
*mlle with me when you have time.'
Repeat this performance and presently
your steaks are the delight of home.

MILITARY CAMPS.
Accommodation.* For the Solillfr
!<<•> h at the I'an-American l' » posi
tion.
Many military organizations intend
to visit the Pan-American Exposition
during the summer. Arrangements
have been made to provide first class
accommodations for them.
The Exposition will maintain a per
manent camp within tlie grounds for
the accommodation of about 200 men
at one time.
This camp will be supplied with
tents floored, cots, buckets, basins, pint
cups, light, water and sinks, for the
use of which no charge will be made.
It will be necessary for visiting organ
izations to furnish their own blankets
and subsistence.
There will be no accommodation for
cooking in this camp, but the visitors
will no doubt be able to make satisfac
tory arrangements with restaurants on
the grounds at reasonable rates.
It is expected that organizations tak
ing advantage ot these camp privileges
will, iit such time as may be agreed
upon beforehand, give military exhibi
tions without charge in the Stadium.
Bands in uniform will he admitted to
the grounds free. Organizations using
tills camp will pay one general admis
sion per man when they enter the
grounds and must be governed by the
rules and regulations laid down by the
Exposition Company.
On account of the large number of
organizations now applying for camp'
facilities at the Exposition the use of
this camp will be limited to a period
not exceeding six days for any otic or
ganization.
Large bodies of troops visiting the
Exposition must be quartered outside
the grounds, where a large camp for
this purpose has been established.
Major Charles J. Wolf is in charge of
the Military Bureau, and he is kept
very busy these days furnishing infor
niatioti to organizations intending to
visit tlie Exposition.
The little bee Is very busy at the
Pan-American Exposition, gathering
and storing honey in glass hives in full
