Not bein? very high up in the

if they are they represent the larg

the largest whales, as well as the
most gigantic of all liviug creat
ures. is the sulphur bottom. It at
tains a length of nearly or quite
100 feet and a weight of 150 tons.
One individual measured 95 feet in
length, 39 feet in girth, with a
jawbone 21 feet long; baleen
(whalebone) weight of entire whale,
147 tons, and it yielded 110 barrels
o. oil. The sulphur bottom sel

does perform in .this manner it pre
sents a truly wonderful sight.

WILSON A LOVER OP
HIS OWN FIRESIDE
Washington, March 24 ? Presi
dent Wilson yesterday again escap
ed the s.aring of the masses, by at
tending the First Presbyterian
Chireh.
AVith a doien or more Preaby
terliii churches with'n easy reach
o' the White House, the President
has kept Washington folk gesslng
each Suaday as to the one he would
select. Secrctaiy of State Bryan
also was In his pew when the Presi
dent, M 1*8 Wilscn and Jessie arri
ved.
After church, tee President vis
ited for a short time at the Corcor
an Gallery of Art, and passed the
afternoon at home.
The Wilson family was at the
White House last night, and there
were no guests. The cares of polit
ical campaigning during the last
two years often deprived Mrv Wilson
a' the society of his family circle,
but the.o is every indication that
henceforth he will pass most of his
evenings at home.
To his close friends, the President
:ius admitted that he finds more
? ?asy and comfort in the White
House than he has had In many
yeais. The President is fond of
parsing his evenings with his family
and has always sought the quiet and
scclusion of his study. He has been
doing a little work on the prepara
ilon of his first message to Con-:
iliess and occasionally has hid a
political caller, but for the most par
nas disposed of his work during the
day and devoted the evening to
tue family fireside.
?"Giving Quiitir."
The expression "giving quarter" has
? curious origin. When the Spaniards
fought the Dutch in the Netherlands
the re was an agreement between them
that the ransom of a soldier should be
a quarter of his pay.
To "ask quarter" was to offer one
fourth of the soldier's pay as rnneom.
and to refuse quarter, of course, was
to decline to accept that amount
West Virginia.
West Virginia's highest mountain Is
located In Pendleton county and la
known hs Spruce Knob. Its altitude,
according to the United States geoljgl
eni survey. Is 4.SU0 feet The lowest
point In the stnte Is on Potomac river,
2-K) feet above sea level. The average
elevitlon of the state la about 1,000
feet.
Origin of the Sidesaddl*.
The use of the sidesaddle for women
riders Is" traced to the time of Anne of
Bohemia, eldest daughter of the em
peror of Germany, who married Rich
ard II. of England. Previous to this
datt all Englishwomen bestrode their
horse mau fashion, but oo account of
n deformity this German bride was
forced to use a sidesaddle, and the cus
tom became general.
