—C. W. Coleman in Harper’s Bazar.
Most people are seemihgly anxious to
secure good fishing to themselves, which
is very natural, and will expend a large
sum in order to stock waters for private
use. Naturally they select waters which
are so situated that they can supervise
them, and therefore these waters are
generally confined or restricted. It is
reasonable to consider waters which are
80 situated that the movements.of the
trout are hindered, to be in no sense superior to artificial ponds, and will in time
surely run out. ;
My idea is that general waters should
always be selected fcr continuous stocking. First find a good stream and test
its qualities, and afterward it should be
seasonably replenished. A great déal of
money is annually squandered in starting artificial ponds and confined streams,
which, if properly used, ‘would have
“given excellent returns. If you have
money to spénd on fish culture do not
waste it, but invest in a proper stocking of a good public stream, and keep
it up. You will in time find that
you are not obliged to pay out large
sums in railroad fare, and consequent,
board at hotels in distant parts, if you
are judicious and persistent_in stocking
home streams.—American Angler. ~~

Human Remains In Texas,
It is reported that near Currizio
Springs, Tex,, an oval topped mound,
covered with petrified human skulls,
has been discovered. The mound is cig:
cular in form and about 100 feet high
aud on one side is joined to ashort range
of hills of abonf the same height. On
the summit and for some distance down
the sloping side it is covered with what
appear to be smooth, spherical bones,
which npon close examination prove to
be, it is said, petrified human skulls distorted into grotesque shapes, =
It is further stated that by. removing
the loose dirt and sand from the orifices
of the face the unmistakable human
eountenance is geyealed, Bones of other
classes are also said to be found there,
and from al] appearances the whole
mound is formed of human skulls,—

Tastes of Some Well Known Writers as
Seen from Their Avowals.
The Book Buyer has been sending out
to literary peoplé’somé™ blanks which
they are required to fill out, telling who
are their favorite prose authors, poets,
painters, etc., their favorite books, heroes
of fiction, what they most enjoy ‘and
most detest, and so on. _Seme-ef the results are amusing—neneis very instructanything else, for instance, to see Mr.
Brander Matthews attempt to reconcile

and his favorite poet, Dobson, with his
favorite musical composer, Wagner: but
when, opposite the sentence, ‘‘Where I
should like to live,” he writes ‘‘New York
of course,” we begin to comprehend as
well as to be amused. Mr. Joel Chandler
Harris makes a very frank and cheerful
avowal of his preferences; it is odd to see
Uncle Remus including Landor among
his favorite authors of prose; but one
would expect Shakespeare and Burns to
be his favorite poets, and it is consistent

Mr. T. Russell Sullivan writes the best
Tot of answers in the lot—which is as
much as to say, of course, that the Listener is most in sympathy with them.
His favorite authors of prose are Steric,
Sir Thomas Browne; his poets, Shalespeare, Heine; his painters, Velasquez,
and Sleep, which is a ‘‘goak;” his favorite play is “Othello,” and his favorite
heroesjin fiction aré Mephistopheles ‘and
d’Artagnan; his favorite heroines in fiction, Juliet and Beatrix Esmond; his
favorite heroines in real life, ‘The Uncomplaining Poor.” He mostly enjoys
travel, and most detests an electric
street car, while the ‘‘historic event a
which he should like most to have been
present” was the interview between Eve
and the serpent!
Miss Agnes Repplier’s ‘answers are illuminating as to the character of that
gifted lady. Naturally Scott is one o!
her favorite prose writers, and Keats
goes with Shakespeare in poetry, while
oer favorite composers are Gounod and
Yerdi,_That “Marius the Epicurean”
should be her favorite book is rathér a1
odd thing to some warm admirer of Mr
Pater, who doesn’t share Miss Repplier’s
general romantic and sanguinary taste:
in literature. The exquisite civilization
of “Marius” seems very far away fron
the silly barbarism of “Ivanhoe.” But
whether it is she whois inconsistent or
whether they are, each party probabhs
would not leave it to the gther to de
zide. Of course Miss Repplier’s heroin
in real life is Mary Stuart, and: the his“toric évent at which she would most like
to have‘ been present. was the battle of
Agincourt. No circular need come from
the mails to find that out.
The literary ladies, by the way, who
have such an unwomanly taste for gore,
and who pour out so much tardy ink in
the praise of thirsty sword, illustrate
anew the-tendency of their-sex to com<¢

“The Criminal Type.”
An important result of the congress at
Brussels on criminal anthropology has
been the discrediting of the so called
“criminal type,” or habitual criminal.
The person. who was born a eriminal,
and must be one, ‘‘nolens volens,” was
supposed to have a smaller capacity of
skull than the average, a more retreating forehead, the back of the head large,
the lower jaw very strong and pronounced, the ears often deformed, the
bair coarse and thick, the beard scanty,
ate.
Dr. Tarnovski, of St. Petersburg, and
Dr. Naecke, from a very large collection
of data, maintained that there was no
special peculiarity in the physique of
criminals, male or female, and the general
tendency of the papers read and discussions on the subject was to regard crime
as. the result of social and psychical
rather than physica] peculiarities.—Manchester Times,
Sending Flowers.
Just a word or two about the packing
of flowers, facts, if you want your gift
to arrive almost.as fresh as when. you
picked them. If you desire to send roses,
insert the cut stems into a raw potato,
and the moisture will keep them from
wilting, while the flowers themselves
should be wrapped in wax paper. For
smal] blossoms, such as violets, sweet
peas or orange flowers, pack them glosely
in damp moss, but never wet «the flowers themselves. Cover always with
waxed paper, and in case-you can procure.a tin or lightweight wooden box it
will insure their safe arrival, as a paste:
board .box is apt to get broken.—St.
Louis Republic.
Effect of the Interstate Law,
A granger riding in the Gars stuck his
head out of the window. Better put
your head in,” said the conductor. The
granger obeyed, and then turned to the
man behind him and said, ‘Why can't !
put my head out?” “You might knock
‘yome of the telegraph poles down,” was
the answer. ‘Oh, that’s it. Well, if
they're so mighty ‘traid ofa few old
poles, I'll keep my head in, That's the
way on the railroads since that new law
went into effect,”"—New York World,
The Age of Fresidents,
When he is inaugurated next March
Mr. Cleveland will lack but a few days
of being 56 years old, which is precisely
the average age of presidents on their
recession, The oldest president was William Henry Harrison, who was 68; Buchpnan was 62; Taylor, 65; Jackson and

The Intricacies of Wall Street.
Just after Jay Gould's death, a wedithy
Wall. street ‘broker made a proposition
to a young man who was not. wealthy
but who had been able to do the broker
a favor, which the latter appreciated
The propesition was couched in language
something like this: ‘Dick, you have

tell you what I will do. I will carry. 100

will eventually go up, but if I should be
the holder of 160 shares it would be certain-togodown. Such-is my luck in
variably, I will take the suit of clothes.’
On Friday this young man figured up
how much he had lost by making the
choice that he did. When Mr. Gould
died, Manhattan was selling at-132.. On
Friday it sold ata fraction aboye 174.
Had the young man chosen the 100 shares
and sold them Friday he would have
been, about $4,200 richer.—New York

Manufacturing Petrified Corpses.
A factory for the manufacture of petrified human corpses has, it is alleged
been discovered in Fresno, Cal. At eas
four petrified people are said to_have
been manufactured and shipped to museums from this place. It may be re
membered that a petrified man created
consilgsahlvor the curiosity were printed
in eastern papers. The thing was seen
nounced a fraud, but it netted considerable money for the ‘‘miners” who dis
covered it, The objects were very carefully made, the bones of the legs and
arms being hollowed out, and in one
vase one arm and a foot was broken off
to show the internal structure. The
fake factory, it is said, stole a genuine
mumunified man—a dried body found on
the plains—from the health officer at
Fresno, fixed it up a little and shipped it
to a museum in the east.—New York Sun.
A Fake Newspaper Man.
According to recent dispatches the
sensational accounts which all the papers
had a few d&ys ago of the storming of
the jail at Bakersville, N. C., the shooting of the sheriff, the desperate battle
between the mob and the sheriff’s posse
and the lynching of three prisoners was
alla “fake,” as the newspaper men call
it, devised by aman named Hyams, assistant city editor of a paper at Johnson
City, Tenn. Correspondents who were
sent from Asheville, N. C., to Bakersville
have returned worn out and. disgusted,
saying there is no trouble whatever there,
nor is there any reason to expect any,
The man Hyams who waa guilty of
telling and publishing this abominable
lie should be discharged from his own
pauper and blacklisted by every respectable newspaper in the United States,—

3 A Life For a Cigarette.
Not many men can have sacrificed
their lives for so trifling an article asa
cigarette end. This, however, is what
has been done by a French private soldier with the curiously outlandish name
of Schwinghedaw. This man, who had
a-bad character in the army for his insubordination, was undergoing. ene of
many terms of imprisonment he has had
at Bicetre military prison, when he
picked up a cigarette end that” had been
thrown down in the exercise ground.
The sergeant on duty ordered him to
throw it away,whereupon the delinquent
became abusive and eventually struck
his superior with his fist. A court mar
tial sitting in Paris has condemned
Schwinghedaw to be sliot.—London
