In the early part of the nineteenth century Vauxhall was the resort of many respectable persons, especially of those who came up from the coun try to see London sights. During one season It was Infested by a band of roughs, who made It their occupation to insult and molest the most quiet, de cent people, especially any whom they guessed to be country visitors. They became such a nuisance that several men about town, among whom were Lord Alvanley and Keppel Craven, laid a plot to get rid of them. They hired Mendoxa. the fiunou prl7.e fighter, and dressed him up a n dean, with a shovel hnt and npron Another prize fighter, a short ninn. wns dressed as a middle aged lady and passed as the dean's wife, und one evening they were seated at Vatixlmll in a conspicuous position to watch the fireworks. It was not long before the old fnshloncd. countrified pair attract ed the attention of the gang, who as sailed them with every kind of coarse raillery aud Insult, all f which thev bore very meekly. At length one of the persecutors, growing bolder by Impunity, stepped up to the dean and squirted an ornngp into bis eye. On this the dean, rising said in a meek, quiet tone. "H.enlly gentlemen, I have borne a groat deal but I must put a stop to this." With that his hat went one way and his coat another, and. followed by his "wife," ae sprang Into the middle of the party, hitting nut In ail directions Filled with astonishment and terror some fled and some fried to show fight, but the handling they got from the prize fighters was too severe foi the fracas to last long. All the time Lord Alvanley and be friends, who were In the boxes, wore calling out lu delight: "Go li. Mr Dean! Give It 'em. Mrs. Dean!" An effectual stop was thus put to the an noyance.

The Way These Ferocious Little In sects Defy the Freshets. There areVcertaln ants that show wonderful Intelligence, and the "driver ants" not only build boats, but launch them too. Only these boats are formed of their own bodies. They ore called "drivers" because of their ferocity. Nothing can stand be fore the attacks of these little crea tures. Large pythons have been killed by them In a single night, while chick ens, lizards and other animals In west ern Africa flee from them In terror. To protect themselves from the heat they erect arches, tinder which numer ous armies of them pass lu safety. Sometimes the arch Is made of grass and earth and la gummed together by some secretion, and again It Is formed by the bodies of the larger ants, which hold themselves together by their strong nippers while the workers pass under them. At certain times of tho year freshets overllow the country Inhabited by the "drivers," and it Is then that these ants go to sea. The rain comes suddenly, and the walls of their bouses are broken in by the flood; but, Instead of coming to the Biirfuce lu scattered hun dreds aud being swept off to destruc tion, out of the rulus rises a black ball that rides safely on the water aud rifts away. At the first warning of danger the little creatures run together and form a solid body of ants, the weaker lu the center. Often this ball Is larger than a common cricket ball, and In this way they float about until they lodge against some tree, upon the branches of which they are soon safe and souud. rearson's Weekly. ' GOVERNMENT ANIMALS. Branding Them Is Provided For by Army Regulation!. Whenever you see the letters "U. S." branded on the left fore shoulder of an animal, make up your mind at once that that beast Is or was at one time the property of our rich old Un cle Sain. Thou again If you knew the key to the system of branding utilized by the quartermaster's department, United Stales army, you would in n moment lie able to tell the organization of the army to which that animal was as signed Immediately after purchase by the government. Itnindlng public nulmnls Is not a matter of choice, but Is provided for by the army regulations, which direct that- "Public animals shall upon the day received be branded with the letters 'U. S.' on the left fore shoulder. Horses assigned to organizations will also be branded on the hoof of one fore foot one and one-half inches below the coronet with the designation of the company. Branding irons of uniform size and design will be supplied by the quartermaster's department, let ters 'U. S.' to lie two Inches in height, letters aud numbers of hoof brands on the same line to be three-fourths of an Inch high, the letter to precede the number and blocked so as to pene trate the hoof one-sixteenth of an inch. For example, the hoof brands on horses assigned to band, Ninth cavalry, would be CBO; to Troop A, Fifth cav alry, would be A5; to Company A, bat tallon of engineers, would be BEA."

FRANK'S RESTAURANT HUMAN STOMACH HAS Animals Are Healthier Because of Strong Digestive Apparatus- An Interesting Interview was re cently obtained with L. T. Cooper, the young man whose theory and medi cines have created such a sensation during the past year. Mr. Cooper, in speaking of the re markable success of his medicine, had this to say on the subject: "My medi cine regulates the storaactL That Is why It Is successful. The human stom ach today has become degenerate, and Is the cause for most ill health. In the horse, the dog, and the wild ani mals generally, you see bo nerve ex haustion, no chronic debility. They are not shut up day after day with, practically no exercise, and they are not able to stuff themselves with food when their bodies have not had enough work to justify it The human race has been doing this for years, and look at the resnlt half the people are- complaining of poor health, not real illness just a half-sick, tired, droopy feeling. They don't really know what Is the matter with them. ,: "I know that all the trouble is caused by weak, overworked stom achs. I have proved this with my medicine to many thousands of peo ple in most of the leading cities of this country. I expect to do the same thing in Europe next year. This is the real reason for the demand for my preparation.'' Among those who have recently been converted to Cooper's theory Is Mr. Monroe Brown of 8 Hancock Street, Winchester, Mass.
