WHERE YOU CAN'T HIDE.

b Berlin the Police Know the Whereabouts of Everybody. You can’t hire a girl in Berlin, writes frank G. Carpenter, without going to the police, and you have to make out two statements whenever you hire a servant. One of these statements is for your landlord and the other for the police. They desoribe the girl as a passport does, giving her age, size ana the color of her eyes and hair. You have to state where she came from, and when she leaves you have to send in another statement saying she has gone. If you say she is a good girl and honest and the reverse is true, and she goes somewhere else and shows herself to be a thief, you are liable to be fined for giving her false recommendation. This is the same with all sorts of servants, and a dishonest pereon cannot get a plaoe here under false pretenses, nor oan a man here easily esoape the payment of his debts. One of the curious institutions of the city is an intelligence office, as it might be called, where reoords of these passports are kept, and where you oan go and find out just where any man or woman is stopping. If John Smith, who owes you a bill, moves to another part of Berlin to esoape you, you have only to go to this offioe, and by paying a few oents you will get a report which will tell you just where he has lived in the oity and where you may find him at present. There is no chanoe for a man to escape or hide here, and the argus eyes of the Government are always upon you.

Berlin.

Frank G. Carpenter, the well-known correspondent, is muoh impressed with the way in whioh Germany’s capital is governed. While almost every oity of consequence in the United States is yearly getting deeper and deeper into debt, Berlin is making money and is at the same time magnificently governed. Beyond all her expenses the oity makes a profit of about 41,250,000 a year. She owns two-thirds of the gas stock and sees that the people get good gas and that the streets are well lighted. On her gas the oity realizes a handsome revenue. Then she insists that every house shall be insured by the city, and forbids any other company doing insurance business in the city. This is another profitable source of revenue. These are only samples of many ways adopted to give the people good service and at the same time make money for the city instead of allowing private corporations to make It Berlin’s government is run for the benefit of her citizens and not for a horde of politicians.

The Income of Millionaires.

Less than 40 years ago the American millionaire was considered a rare bird, but now there are more than 4,000 millionaires in the United States, and the man worth from $10,0(10,000 to $20,000,000 is so oommon that his presence excites little, if any, comment. To-day this nation possesses not only the greatest number of rich men but also the richest of any on the globe. A list of America’s ten richest men, with the Bums they are worth, would be made up as follows: William Waldorf Astor, $150,000,000; Jay Gould, $100,000,000; John D. Rockefeller, $90,000,000; Cornelius A’anderbilt, $90,000,000; William K. Vanderbilt, $80,000,000; John Jacob Astor, $70,000,000; Henry M. Flagler, $60,000,000; John I. Blair, $50,000,000; Leland Stanford, $50,000,000; Collis P. Huntington, $50,000,000. The fortunes of these ten men foot up the stupendous total of $790,000,000, a sum the vastness of which baffles human comprehension.

Wales Not a Happy Man.

The Prince of Wales Is far from being a happy man. He has waited so long that he has about given up hope of ever being king. He is already a grandfather, while his mother seems destined to live many years yet He has seen everything worth seeing, met everybody worth meeting, is debarred from mingling in politics, seems to have no mission in life, no purpose to carry out. His position in life prevents his acting like a sensible man; he must keep up certain forms, submit to being toadied to, and be at the beck and call of everybody who has a social ax to grind, Wales is perhaps not a very able man, but he is too manly to be satisfied with his present merely ornamental position In life. He is not half as happy as the average American citizen who has something to do and who is not ashamed to do it.

The Center of the United States.

The exact situation of the geographical center of the United States is a surprise to anyone who has not given the subject careful attention. The most eastern point of the United States is Quoddy Head, Maine; the western, Attoo Island, Alaska; the most northern, Point Barrow, Alaska; the most southern is Key West, Fla. The center of the quadrangular figure formed by uniting these four points is looated as the orossing of 55 degrees north latitude and 110 degrees west longitude, about 420 miles north of the northern line of Montana. It is also true of the United States as of Great Britain, that the sun never sets on our territory, for when it Is 6 p. m. on Attoo Island, Alaska, it is 9:86 a. m. of the following day at Eastport, Maine.

Hard on the Lawyer.

A New York lawyer, distinguished in his profession, owns a delightful summer home in Vermont. His neigh borp there tell this story about his youngest child, a girl not more than 10. After much coaxing she prevailed on her father to buy her a donkey and cart. The first day of the donkey’s arrival he was permitted to browse on the lawn. The child followed the animal about, and thinking his countenance wore an uncommonly sad expression she <-antiously approached, and, striking his nose gently with her little hands, said “Poor donkey! You feel lonesome, don't you? But never mind, papa will be here to-morrow, and then you will have company."

She Has the American Spirit.

Mrs. Ye, wife of the head of tie Korean legation at Washington, seems to have been Imbued with the spirit of Amerioan independence very soon after her arrival in this country. She entertains in the American fashion, conforms to our style of dress and has recently joined the Presbyterian Church. She accompanies her husband to all public receptions, not wholly to his delight, although his experience several years ago taught him the folly of objecting. On that oooaslon, it will be remembered, the lady climbed through the kitchen window and followed her husband to a reception after he enjoined her to remain quietly el the iacpttaa.

The Democratic Sentinel.

IN A MASS OF SNAKES.

ThiOllng Experience of a Sum Hand In a Well in Connecticut. The long drought in the Conneotlout valley, during whioh the farmers have been compelled to get their water from the river, Induced Farmer Alexander Penfield, living near Middletown, to clean up a long dissued well on his S remises. For this purpose he sent his ired man, a Pole, to the bottom of it in a bucket. The Pole had not labored long before he was disturbed by a singular buzzing sound like the humming of a swarm of bees, and a moment later he began to see snakes. From every crevice in the stone curb of the well serpents thrust forth their heads, hissing loudly, then advanoed their bodies, little by little, Into the well, whioh were followed instantly by still more snakes, all crowding on the frightened workman and tumbling on each other into the bottom of the dimly lighted shaft. There were black snakes, water snakes, striped snakes and adders. For awhile the Pole waged a desperate battie against the serpents with his shovel, simply to protect himself from their attack, but in a few moments he was completely invested with a hissing, writhing, squirming, tossing tangle of serpents in the bottom of the pit, while a shower of snakes was continually falling upon him from the walls above his head. Finally he called for aid and was hauled to the surfaoe. Subsequent examination revealed the faot that he had killed thirty-four snakes with his shovel.

A Disagreeable Complaint.

The affection known in hot climates as “prickly heat,” is not confined to the tropics. Certain occupations induoe it. For example, cooks, bakers, grocers, brioklayers, and washerwomen have it, and in a very painful and serious degree sometimes. It is a non-contagious disease of the skin, characterized by the appearance of small, hard papula, slightly red, accompanied by severe itohing. The disease appears on different parts of the body, but generally on the front of the forearms and hands, the sides of the neck and face. It is often due to irregularities in diet and habits. The best treatment is simple, unstimulating food and drink, and proper attention to the general health. A daily cold or tepid bath should be resorted to. This affection is the cause of the peeling of the skin of the hands of some people in the fall, apart from the effects of sunburn.

He Wanted No Sympathy.

The milkman gathered himself up from the ruins of his demolished wagon, scraped the whitish-gray mud from his clothing, smoothed out the dents in his hat, wiped from his whiskers the dripping fluid that had drenched his face when the oatastrophe came, gave one glance at the runaway horse disappearing down the street, surveyed the dirty-white puddles that represented his stock in trade and turned to the crowd. “All I've got to say,” he observed, rolling up his coat sleeves and speaking in the tone of a man accustomed to ealling oattle, “is that the first son-of-a-gun that says a word about its being no use crying over split milk is going to get his blamed head punohed. ”

It Weakens the Brain.

Imprisonment tends to weaken the brain, Bays a Philadelphia police official. This places a released criminal, especially one who has served a long term, at a deoiled disadvantage in his efforts to bury the past and begin life anew. I do not believe that these so-called homes for reformed convicts wield muoh influenoe, if any, in molding the future of criminals. The tendency, it occurs to me, would be to bring together a dangerous olass of crooks who might Improve the occasion to conooct schemes of outlawry.

One of Nature’s Queer Freaks.

A local shell dealer in Atlantic City, N. J., while going over a consignment of imported shells recently, found a curious freak of nature in the shape of a -hell on which was plainly decipherable he word “Paris." The letters forming 'he word were very irregular, and a close examination showed them to be natural and a part of the shell. The shell on which is to be seen this strangely formed word, is a native of the Islands of Mauritius. It will be placed in the \cademy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia.

He Has Clothes for a Lifetime.

If the Emperor of Germany shduld retire from the ruling business to-morrow he would have clothes enough to last him his lifetime. It is said that he has a thousand suits, besides twelve dozen suits of underclothing and fifty dozen socks and handkerchiefs. Some of his suits are uniforms which would not be available if he became a private citizen, but there is no doubt that he could keep his stock of underwear replenished from the sale of these extra uniforms, and retain a little pocket-money besides.

An Absent-Minded Man.

There is a very absent-minded attorney in Auburn, Me. Some time ago he went to a livery stable and hired a team. When he had finished his drive he took the team to another stable and left it. He was well known and at neither stable was any question made. Discovery came after eight days and from each stable the attorney received a bill—from the former for horse hire and from the other for boarding the animal. He resolved to keep his wits about him in the future.

Eaten by a Panther.

A report from Deep Fork, Oklahoma, says the wife and baby of a settler living near there disappeared some time ago. The other day the head of the child and portions of the body of the mother were found in a panther’s lair. A large force of armed men are looking for the panther.

Had to Eat the Shells.

One night this week two well-known New York printers sat down to a remarkable feast. One ate the meats of a quart of peanuts while the other ate the shells. It is needless to say that the feast was the result of a wager, and the fellow who fed on husks bet on Harrison.

He Locked Up His Verses.

I It is a singular fact that when the late Lord Tennyson wrote a poem he invariably had it put in type and looked it up for a number of years. If at the end of the allotted time he still liked the verses he corrected them and had them ttMkfetA if not he destroyed them. 4

RENSSELAER JASPER COUNT f. INDIANA) FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 10 1893

THE LARGEST BABY EVER BORN. The baby which for general size, height and weight, takes the oake as being “the largest on record” was born in Ohio on the 12tn day of January, 1879. The “average baby” weighs from six to nine pounds. This giant infant’s weight wa» exactly 23J pounds. He (it was a boy) was 2J feet in I eight (the common run of babies range from 16 to 20 inches in height) and had a head measuring 19inches. Its oute littlo pink foot measured inohes and was as thick as that of the average eighteen-months-old child About six years prior to this extraordinary e ent the same woman gave birth to an eighteen pound baby which was 24 inches in hen ht. Although this may be thought to be a wonderful story by those not informed as to the real facts, it will be shorn of some of its seemingly Mulhattonic marks when it is known that the parents themselves were two of the largest people in the United States at the time of the occurrence related above—they were Mis. and Mr. M. Y. Bates, the former known as the “Nova Scotian Giantess," and the latter as the “Kentucky Wonder.” Mrs. Bates was (if memory is not at fault, she died five or six years ago) 7 feet 9 inches in height, the father of the baby giant being about two inohes less in stature.—St. Louis Republio.

ILLITERATE SCHOOL TEACHERS. Here is an item that will interest school teachers generally: The eighty-five teaobers in the sohools of Lockport, N. Y., had a spelling contest the other day, to the great delight of their pupils, because some of the teaohers did not altogether cover themselves with glory. Of the eighty-five only five spelled ( “Ranßselaer” correotly, and 74 per cent of the whole number misspelled “acknowledgement.” All of the following words were wrongly spoiled by more than hulf the teachers, and several of them by more than fifty: “Supersede," ’’resuscitative,” “excellence," “benefited,” “business,” “medal,” “maintenance," “milliner,” “pretentious,” “gaseous" and “concede."

NEW FISH COMMISSIGNER.

GOV. MATTHEWS DECIDES TO APPOINT P. H. KIRSCH. Gov. Matthews has decided to appoint P. H. Kirsch state fish commissioner, to euceeed Colonel Dennis. Prof. Kirsch is at present superintendent of the public schools at Columbia City, and is esteemed an authority on ichthyology. Since liis graduation at the state university, where he studied under Dr. Jordan in thii branch of natural history, he has done considerable creditable work for the United States Pish Commission, m researches in the r'vers of Kentucky. He is an ardent lover of fishing and has been of much assistance to the retiring commissioner in prosecuting violators of the seining law. Dr. Jordon recommended him very highly. In making the appointment, Gov. Matthews paid Col. Dennis a high compliment for having elevated the office to a high plane of effic ency. Col. Dennis joined in urging Prof. Kirsch’s appointment as one eminently fit to be made. It is believed he can do more tor Indiana waters in getting supplies from Washington than almost any o.her man. Not many years since Prof. P. H. Kirsch was superintendent of the public schools of Rensselaer, and his many friends here wd\ be pleased to learn of his advancement.

INDIANA'S POLYGLOT SENATOR.

The Russian extradition treaty was ratified by the U. S. senate a few days ago. Senator Turpie led the opt.osition to it. He mtrodured a resolution giving the U. S. courts the r.ght, under any treaty, te determine whether or not an offense is political under the law of rations.

The Roby Investigation.

Chicago Dispatch. Tuesday .was a busy day for the officials of the Indiana Racing association, as the committee appointed by the Indiana legislature to visit the Roby track put in an unexpected appearance during the early morning, and had they picked a day in which to witness real winter racing they could hardly have made a better selection, as the mercury had dropped below the zero mark, while a keen and bitter north wind swept across the' prairies. The committee consisted of M. N. Johnson, of Marion county, as chairman; W. W. McManon, of Fulton county, and M. R. Sulzer, of Jefferson county, Jerome Dinwiddie, the member from Lake, and Senator Hobson, of Park, accompanying them as invited guests. The early morning was spent in an inspection of the stables, and the lawmakers were greatly surprised when shown such noted turf performers as Guido, Lorenzo, Hercules and Tobe Bell, the last named being David Waldo’s American Derby candidate for this year. They had no idea, evidently, that such high-class performers were on

the ground. The stable accommodations were a revelation to them, and Chairman Johnson did not hesitate to say that the horses were better cared for, as a rule, than were the family horses owned anywhere in the state. The saddling paddock and weighing room were also visited and the methods of doing business there were explained. The afternoon was given up to questioning the management and the horsemen regarding the racing and the care of the horses, with an evident view of ascertaining whether or not the racing was on the level, whether other gambling games other than bookmaking and poolselling were allowed on the grounds and whether or not winter racing was cruelty to animals. Among those questioned were John Condon, the track’s manager; Tom O’Hara, owner and trainer; George W. Poole, David Waldo and J. G. Reynolds. The testimony of the horsemen was all to one effect, viz: that racing horses in the winter did not hurt them, that on the contrary it did them good, while at the same time it opened up a larger market for breeders of racing stock and prevented the market from being glutted. The poolselling and bookmaking came in for a large share of attention from the visiting solons, and Representative Sulzor managed to pick soveral winners during the afternoon. The examination of the track manager brought

out the fact that several notable improvements had been planned in the vicinity of the track, and that the building of a large summer hotel and several handsome pavilions on the lake front had been contemplated; also a pier where boats could land all through the summer months. Representative Sulzer said bo* fore taking his departure for Indianapolis: “The track and the management have been badly misrepresented by the press of the state, and as a result public opinion has been worked up to a high pitch against it. We had been told that games of all kinds were in full h«>re and that it was frequented by only the worst classes. We found nothing of the sort, but, on the contrary, a well-managed race track, while the crowd was one that would compare favorably with any to be seen at other public places of amusement. It will be hard to make people see things that way, however, lam afraid.”
