Will Store Bicycles.
Rev, Mr. Gardam and St. Luke's
vestery are recognizing that Hie bicycle
to many ib as much of a necessity as
the horse and carriage is to others
in covering distance and that some
means must be provided to accomodate
win elman who wish to come on bi-
cyles to attend divine service. There-
tore a responsible person will be in the
church house during services to take
charge of weeels that wish to be left in
his care, and no fee is asked for this
convenience. Further, the usual style
of clothing worn by wheelmen and
wheelwomen will not be discouraged
by any means and the golf suit and
divided bkirt will be as welcome as the
double breasted Prince Albert and the
exacting study by Redfern. Many
churches throughout the country are
in this manner recognizing the permanence of the bicycle and one church
in Grand Rapids has built a "wheel
house" especially designed for this fin
de siecle demand,—Times.
OUR OWN MAKE.
One Piece of Architecture  That Is "Ear
Above Comparative Criticism.
Thero was au air of tolerant superiority about him, which made his unfavorable comments on the things brought to
his attention doubly hard to bear. His
Washington host was doing his best to
Ehow him tho city in such a manner as
to leave a good impression, for he had
announced his intention of writing a
book as soon as he got back to London.
Bnt whatever he saw served only to
bring to mind something in Europe that
he liked, better.
"Very good," he remarked as one of
the department buildings was brought
to his attention. "Very good in its
way. Bnt it has the defects which always result from the efforts of a-mere
copyist." .
' 'We are inclined to regard that as a
very handsome building," said his entertainer mildly.
"No doubt. And it does well enough.
Yours is a yonng nation—one that cannot be expected to hold any great eminence for its achievements, either artistic or political."'
"Vou mean that we haven't any style
of onr own?"
"That expresses the idea."
' 'You como with me. I'll show you a
style- of architecture that reflects the
national spirit of this country, something that's our own design and that
commands the respect of two continents. There it is1—the Washington
monument. Ono look at it tells the
whole story, and it doesn't need any
fluted columns or flligrco work around
the corners to make people admire it
either. Upright, massiTC and immutable, it's the biggest thing of its kind on
earth, and it means business from the
ground clear np to the topmost molecule
of the lightning rod."—Washington

The Japanese In California.
Every month sees more Japanese arrive, and a larger percentage of them
are common laborers, who enter tho hop
yards, orchards and sugar beet fields of
California. In fruit packing they have
crowded ont white men and women.
They are as quick as women and girls
in handling fruit and are more accurate
and steadily industrious. They practically monopolize the industry of beet
pulling on the large ranches devoted to
the sugar beet. Complaints of the rapid
displacement of while laborers by Japanese in orchard work induced the labor
bureau recently to make an investigation. They found that the Japanese
worked under a co-operative plan and
that by this means they wero able to
make, contracts at low prices. Several
associations in San l"*rancisco are engaged in house cleaning, dividing the
profits among their members. The'Japanese are doing a large trade in San
Francisco in bamboo ware and matting,
which are nsed mainly for decoration of
rooms. They have cnt into the Chinese
trade in curios and embroidered silk
garments.—Chautanqtiau.

SANDBOX TREES.
The Gigantic Tot*ch Tue I^bts of the Tropics
Havo Explosive "Fruits.
Everybody is familiar with the
"touch me not," the pretty jewel weed
that grows along the side of water
courses. When its seed pods are ripe, at
the slightest touch they will explode,
blowing the seeds in yonr face. The
giant among them is the sandbox tree
(Hura crepitans), a native of tropical
America. Its furrowed fruits are as
large as an orange. Cosmos of Paris
thus describes this Krupp gun of the
vegetable world:
"It is often cultivated as an ornamental tree, tfoth in its native country
and in ether parts of the globe, notably
in certain gardens in the Indies. Its
fruit looks on the outside something like
a melon; it is formed exactly like, that
of our native euphorbias, of sections,
which at maturity separate violently
with so intense, a report that it has been
compared to the sound of a pistol,
throwing its seed to a considerable distance.
' 'With the fruit a very pretty sandbox can be made by cutting a circular
opening in the upper part, extracting
the seeds and then covering the opening. The opposite side is perforated
with little holes. A sandbox thus made
is very difficult to keep, for the time always comes when, aided by tho drying
process, the sections suddenly split, with
a characteristic sound.
"The violent splitting of the fruit of
the sablier is explained very simply by
a process analogous to that which causes
the two halves of a split stick to curl
apart and depends upon the nneqnal
extensibility of the elements of the
valves, which produces the mechanical
effect dne to it at the precise moment
when the sutures, the lines of least resistance, are opened by the progress of
desiccation."
A Deg as a. Witness.
The dog refused to be sworn. It had
a»sort of Quakerlike simplicity and only
affirmed, but its testimony was sufficient to decide a case iii Justice Martin's conrtrconi.
The animal was a large, stately and
intelligent Irish setter. After the human litigants had each told his tale, the
dog took the witness stand.
"."Mow, who is your master?" said E.
D. Loy, who had replevined the dog
from Fred Enderlin, a South Side saloon
keeper, on June 20.
The brute barked, sprang out of the
witness chair and pawed at the feet of
Loy. The animal then went through
various performances at the bidding of
Loy, including running across the street
and back at his command. The dog
wouid not act for the other litigant, and
the court decided that he. belonged to
Loy., The animal was then released
from the custody of Constable Roebuck.
He wagged his tail at the "judge and left
the courtroom with his master.—Chicago "Sews.
