SIGNS OF EARLY SPRING.
lom* Sn> by Prof. Von Joggleby
from Hla Study Window—
Backyard Sconoa.
“I know when spring is at
aand,” said Prof. Ton Joggleby,
according to the New York Sun,
‘‘by the things I see in the range
of backyards in view from my
study window.
“I* the sheltered corner of some
ef these yards, where it ie pro
tected from the cold winds and
where It gets not only the direct,
but from the sheltering fences,
the reflected rays of the advanc
ing season’s warmer snn, the
grass begins to grow green while
yet there may be in other parts of
the yard patches of snow and ice.
The eager graas responds to the
first call of spring.
“And so do the dwellers in the
houses to which these yards are at
tached. On that same day in some
of these yards there were people
out raking up the winter’s debris;
the scraps and pieces ef paper,
and the twigs and the sticks, left
on the ground after the melting
away of its winter covering. They
had sensed the approach of spring
and they were cleaning up; and on
the first occasion, anyway, they
were moved no doubt not so much
by a desire for neatness and trim
ness in their several yards as by
an inward prompting to get back
to them once more; to mother
earth.
“It doesn’t matter to me what
the ground hog may say, or how
many other indications may
point, I always know when spring
Is at hand by these two signs, by
the coming green of the tufts of
grass in the sheltered corners of
my back yard, and by the appear
ance of my neighbors at work
cleaning up.”
NOT THE ORIGINAL BQAT.
Shell Seen by Visitors at Columbia
Not the One in Which Her
Crew Won at Henley.
Columbia students and ♦gradu
ates will be disappointed to learn
that the old shell hung in the uni
versity trophy room on Morning
side Heights is not the original
boat in which the Columbia crew
won the Visitors’ Challenge cup
at Henley in 1878. The shell, says
the New York Sun, occupies the
most prominent position in the
room and has been pointed out to
every visitor as the only American
boat manned by a college crew to
win at Henley.
The first doubt as to the authen
ticity of the boat was expressed
several months ago by Francis
Sedgwick Bangs, a trustee of the
university, who has always been
prominent in Columbia’s rowing
interests. Subsequent investiga
tions have shown that on the day
before the Henley crew sailed for
America Capt. Goodwin sold the
two shells which Columbia had
laKen vo rjHgiH.nu iu uamunu^n
university, where they were used
till a very few years ago, when
they were broken up.
There is some consolation for
the Columbia men in the fact that
the oars used by her crew in this
race, which are also on view in the
I trophy room, are the real ones
lbrought back by the crew and sub
sequently presented to the uni
sersity.
\ The Summer Season,
r ^ti^hen one reflects upon the
delightful weather which pre
vailed so generally in October,
says Four-Ttack News, and the
even more perfect weather in No
vember, it naturally calls forth the
query, “why do we call ‘the sum
mer season’ from July 1 to Sep
tember 1?” It is absurd! June
and September,—even October
and often November gives us more
delightful weather than July and
August. I, for one, vote unani
mous!^ for a longer summer sea
son, f<* a fuller period in which
to enjdv the beauties of nature,
for natnre is so varied in her
moods, knd so lavish with her
charms that she deserves more of
I our attention, and the more atten
tion we lv^stow the more we learn
to admird her every phase and
fancy, ant the more we admire
the bettenoff we are, for every in
fluence winch nature exerts is for
the good. \

•as Fish Welghlnt 125 Peaade
j with Rod aad Reel.
Edward Llewellyn, a comet soloist of
tie Catalina Island band, Is a most en
thusiastic and picturesque angler. I
Recently he made the record Jewflsh
eatch. one weighing 425 pounds; the oth
er morning he though he would inscribe
the tuna record also on his diadem, and
taking the Catalina hiked out after the
biggest specimens of the tiger-fish to be
takes. He had uncorked hut a small por
tion of his stock of patlencs when his reel
began to whizz.
And then It whizzed. By consummate
skill Llewellyn prevented the fish from
getting away In the first grand rushes,
and then he began on the aggressive. For
an hour and 21 minutes a fierce fight
lasted. It was a formidable-looking crea
ture that was at length brought alongside
the boat, and there was debate, after it
was gaffed, as to whether it would be a
i welcome addition to the crew.
Hung up on the raek here, the creature
began to excite comment. To the casual
observer it was but a moon-fish, a rather
anusual eatch, but occasionally caught
and brought in by being entangled In the
tshenpen's nets. This, however, wme
eaught" with a hook and rod and reel,
something unknown to fishermen hith
erto. A glance at the fish also showed a
radical difference between this and the
sword-fish.
Ttfl Rurnrrf fa rwkf ark Iatif ffmef a# flam
genuine sword-fish of this length; the
lower Jaw Is unduly elongated; It has on
Its back a collapsible fin, which, when
extended, stands up 15 Inches above the
fish, but folds down Into a grove, until
It Is unnotlceable; the tall Is like the
screw of a propeller, and very similar
In appearance to Jhat of the tuna.
The fish sharps are all guessing. The
like of this has net been seen here before,
nor can any enlightenment be had from
any books on the subject to be bad here.
The strange creature Is nine feet long
and weighs 125 pounds. The sword Is
>4 Inches long and the tall Is 39 across.
MOVE MILLIONS AS RAGS.
Unbonded Government Clerk Carries
Money from Washington to Now
York In a Salt Case.
CoL Edwards, chief of the division
of Insular affairs, recently told the
story of a bureau clerk’s remarkable
trip a few days ago with $3,000,000 of
government cash. The clerk Is Marion
E. Beall, whose home is In Fort
Wayne, Ind. For fear of robbery ths
officials kept the trip secret until after
the clerk had delivered his precious
burden in New York.
Under the direction of ths insular
department the mints and the bureau
of printing and engraving have been
making money for use in the Philip
pines. To. Mr. Beall was assigned tbs
duty of overseeing the shipment of
the money to the island possessions.
Ths bureau of printing and engraving
turned out $3,000,000 in $1,000 bills.
The Insular department wanted to get
the money to New York. Beall went
around to see the express csmpanies
about the cost of transporting ths
treasure. ‘‘Eight hundred dollars,’’
said each of the companies.
“That’s too much,’’ said Col. Ed
wards when Beall reported. “What’s
the matter with you putting the
money in a suit case and taking it up
yourself?"
"Why, sure, I can take It if you art
willing to trust me with it,’’ said
Beall.
Ths money was put ia a suit cass
and Beall, although not even under
bond, carried it from this city to New
York, whence K was shipped.
NEARLY WEDS BRIDESMAID.
MlnUter Had Reached Fateful Part
When Bride, Realtelagr Situ
atloa, Calls a Halt,
But fat a sudden protest by the bride
the bridegroom at a wedding in St.
Mary’s church, New Britain, Conn.,
would have been married to the brides
maid the other day. Peter Wood and
Miss Rosa Strader, the principals, en
tered the church with Stephen Ferry
and Miss Edwina Softleigh, the best
man and bridesmaid. When the party
■eached the altar the bridesmaid, In
stead of retiring in favor of the bride,
remained at the bridegroom’s side.
Rev. J. T. Winters began the cere
mony, but just as he had reached tht
fateful part Miss Strader Jumped up
and asked Father Winters to stop.
An explanation followed, the young
women exchanged places, and the
ceremony went on. The bridesmaid
had never attended a wedding before
Famofif Old Cloek Stops.
Thousands of Parisians who are in
the habit daily of setting their watch
es by the famous clock on the bourse
were filled with dismay the other
week when the famous timepiece was
seen to lose several hours In the
course of a day and then stop alto
gether. For many years the bourse
clock has been considered one of the
Infallible chronometers of the city.
Apparently the recent additions and
Improvements of the old bourse have
been too much for Its delicate mech
anism. _

“NATURE NEVER GIVES UP.*
X Phrase That Is Full of Meaning for
the Sick in Either Body
or Mind.
A phrase from a recent magazine
article is so suggestive and so full
of encouragement that it seems
worth while to make it the text for
one of our small sermons, says
Woman’s Home Companion. The
phrase is: “Nature never gives
up.” You may with profit say this
over carefully and thoughtfully
and let its full meaning come to
you: “Nature never gives up.”
Nature is on the side of health,
and sanity, and consequent happi
ness. Hard as your case may be, |
the great Mother is lighting the
battle with you. Has disease got
into your bones? Nature has mar
shaled her forces to combat it,
and with marvelous strategy has
set engiaes to work which are en
deavoring to circumvent the en
emy. Nature is working in con
junction with the physician and
yourself. That is a thought
which ought to cheer you. You
have been imprudent, possibly—
It n nn<1 1 nf t ATIO Vnn
have taken such ill-care of your
God-given body that your friends
have set you down as hopeless or
worse. You have told yourself
that there is no hope for you. Na
ture has not given you up. She
wants you to live and work and be
healthy and happy and in the
event of your neglect of yourself,
she is still fighting for you. She
has no moral idea in doing this.
She just does it. Perhaps you de
serve to be given up. Many of us
do, it sometimes seems. But Na
ture is blind to that. Of course,
she is not all-powerful. She can
be overcome. She fails often.
But you will do well to remember
that in every case while there is
a spark of life left, she is trying.
Let that thought brace you. Buck
up, and give Nature some help.
I should like to think that we
could carry the analogy into the
moral world as well. Do you not
believe that there are forces as
yet unvalued which are fighting
the fight for good in the souls of
men? Bad a man or woman may
be—there is exterior pressure to
make him or her better. ..There is
law; there is education; there are
all the societies and institutions
whose object is to help the down
fallen and the unfortunate. But
are there not other forces, too?
Does not the great Mother of
Souls fight continually for the
spiritual health and sanity of all
people? The thought is comfort
fng, stimulating, encouraging. It
Is the business of every individual
to add all his personal strength
to all encounters with evil, physic
al or spiritual. He can do so more
heartily and with better faith for
success if he remembers that “na
ture aever gives up.”
INTERESTING CHILDREN.
Youngsters of Oriental Ministers at
Washington Never Heard of Christ
mas Before Coming Here.
There are in the foreign colony
In Washington quite a number of
children who never heard of
Christmas until they came to the
land of the free, says the Wash
ington Times. Among them are
the two sons and the daughter of
the Chinese minister, the young
sters of the Korean legation, and
Osman Sureya and Ali Haidas,the
black-eyed little sons of Chekib
Bey, the Turkish minister. When
Wu Ting-Fang was Chinese minis
ter he adopted +he American
Christmas to the extent that his
young son was allowed to go to
the white house each Christmas
morning with a bouquet almost as
large as himself designed as a
token for the first lady of the
land. In the Chinese colony are
several children who have been
enjoying an American Christmas
for some years pas t. These for
tunate youngsters are the chil
dren of Yung Kwai, the secretary
interpreter, wrhose wife is a New
England woman.
Magnificent Distances.
The diocese of Ki& watin, in ltu
pert’s Land, is one of magnificent
distances. Bishop Lofthouse once
walked 200 miles to fetch a doctor
for his wife. Many of the Indians
walk 25 miles to church, and the
bishop has baptized scores of ba
bies which had been carried 150
miles on their mothers’ backs
over hard-frozen snow. At night
the family sleep, wrapped in the
deer skins, on branches laid upon
the snow.
