A wrltor who has been traveling through the pine forests and rough farming country of the Auvorgno region was impressed by the large number of farm houses that woro not occupied. Tho region appears to bo much like the hilly sections of Northern New England, and no doubt tho land hnri boon abandoned to forest growth for similar reasons In both Instances. Tho soil is rather thin nnd too rough for successful working by machinery. Accordingly, many of tho farmem emigrntcd or obtained work In tho cities. Of late, however, tho French farmers of this section noto a returning tendency on tho part of their former neighbors, many of whom were dissatisfied with their city experience, and find tho farms more attractive than formerly because of Uio higher price of farm products in recent years.

It is said that one of the most boautiful ladles in French society today was first revealed to her husband on tho walls of tho salon. It was while visiting the salon in 1S7S that the youthful Marquis de C. was struck by tho childish beauty of a young girl. one of the prominent figures in a pic ture of a village fete. Her tumbled golden locks, her dancing blue eyes and tho freshness and graceful abandon of her figure so fascinated him that ho sought out the artist and lenrnod from him that the "little witch" was the daughter of a poor peasant near Avranches. where the picture was painted. To seek out tho peasant nnd to make the acquaintance of his fas cinating daughter, child of nine summers, was soon accomplished, and tho marquis lost his heart even more completely to the real than to the pictured maid. With the father s approval he had the girl oducatod at one of the best schools In Paris, and nino years later, on her eighteenth birthday, the maid of the village fete blossomed into the still more lovely Marqulso de C. An Interesting Book. A French marquise whoso country house is crowded with guests during tho hunting season hit upon the origi nal idea of placing a register at the disposal of her visitors In which to record their desires and criticisms.

Ilrnnnlgan carrlod Ice for tho Sylvan Springs Ice Company. He was a goodly young follow, standing six feet one In his stockings, with a countenaneo deoply bronzed by woathor out of which his wide, blue eyes laughed unceasingly. His tlannol shirt, open a little at the base of the. strong, round throat and his broad felt hat. indented with a veritable "Denver poke, gave him a cowboy effect. Ho was perfectly cognizant of this and traded Oil It With tilt) titnlils nf flu ni. rious houses on his beat, before whom ho swaggered not a little, dropping hints of a western past, strown with nun an scalps. And was you over thoro. now. .Mr. nrannigau?" one of thorn once asked him, and ho answered ambiguously: Aw, nn' if I hadn't a been how would I get the wownd on me crown?" "What wownd on your crown?

Brannigan called mis sort or tiling "Passing the time.", It is only fair to add that ho nasscd it in no worse ways. But he was to learn that there was a type of womanhood demanding more differential anproach. Tho first time ho saw Alma was on a hot afternoon In August, when she nau just come down from Nova Scotia ana was leellng the atmosphere of the south end oppressive. Her mother, who kopt a boarding house, and had combined with that responsibility tho care of a shiftless second husband and his two small boys, had written to Halifax that Alma was needed; and Alma, who had a good place thero, had dutifully responded to the maternal summons. She was a slender, darkhaired girl, with a delicate complexion, and slim, ladylike hands. lirannlgan. swlnnInK in with his huge Ice-block, took a swift, appreciative look at hor, dumped tho ico in Its recentnrlo. nriti Rfnntiml swing for conversation.

"Yo'll not stay here; the old lady can't kapo no gyurl moro than a wook; 'Us a hole of a place!" Alma looked gravely at him. and he wondered, until sho said: I'm Mrs. Brown's dauchter from Halifax." Brannigan went away at that, sud denly speechless. He saw her nearly every dav after. but did not seem to make much head way.

Ho marched forth ra diant. riio ride out on tho open car was very pleasant Alma enjoyed every ' bit of it. though sho asked herself frequently: What was she about?

That Was Pitchers may como and pitchers may name of "Old Hoss" Radgo, but the bourne goes on forever. I have talked to many groat ball players who havo lamented to mo the fact that baseball famo Is so ephemeral that It was not worth tho gaining; and, while no doubt this is in a great measure true, there Is ono pitcher who has left a name thnt promises to roll on for many, many years. Each year hundreds of pitchers claim attention of the world; nnd each year they are promptly forgotten. But Illinois produced a man who, although now 11 years deceased, has a bright er name than any of the great multi tude. In the great campaign of 1SS4, when the Providence club, then a member of the National League, was fighting a bitter game with Philadelphia, a cat astrophe occurred that seemingly would disrupt its chnnces of winning the pennant. A player named Sween ey, who was pitching, was ordered to go into right field to chnngo places with "Cyclone" Miller. At that time it was not permlssable to take a pitcher out of the game. Wheroupon Sweeney promptly walked out of the game, leav ing the team with only eight men and with one pitcher Charles Radbourne. Two men tried to cover the field, with the result that Providence was completely snowed under. A meeting of tho Directors was held to decide whether or not the club should be dlsbanded. Certainly a professional team was never In a sorrier plight Radbourne was npproached, and the proposition put to him. "I can win it all riKht." said he auletly and In a matter-of-fact tone, world has ever seen. Radbourne ostabllshed a record that has nevor been equaled, one that will live when more games Hadbourne won 2G. In four games with Boston ho had three shut outs; only one run was scored and only 17 hits were made. This defeat was suffered at the hands of Buffalo by a score of 2 to 0, and oven then only five hits were made off him. showing that the defeat was not due to poor pitching. Needless to say, Providence won the pennant or, rather, Radbourne won the pennant. But the great player had to pay the price. No arm could stand the awful strain without great agony. Morning after morning when Radbourne arose he could not lift his arm as high as his waist. He had to brush his hair with his left hand. But he did not give up the gnme; he would slip out to the park about two hours before the rest of tho team put In an appearance and would begin the excruciating process of limbering up. He would pitch tho ball only a few feet when ho would first go out; but he would keep on trying, time after time, rubbing his arm with his left hand, sometimes his faco would be drawn up into contortions, but never a word of complaint left his lips. Half nn hour before the game -was to begin the plnyers would slip out to see how "Old Hoss" was getting along; they would sit silently on tho bench, waiting for his nrm to get into condition. When he was able to throw from second to home base a rousing cheer would go up, for they knew that meant the winning of the game for them. Radbourne claimed for his home Bloomlngton. 111. This city has other famous pitchers to Its credit, namoly, Jadk Powell and Clarke Grimth. After his great season with Providence managers all over the country were upon his heels. Flattering offers poured In, and he was not under contract with Providence for the next season, either. When the contest was over tho late Ned Allen, president of the team that season, sent for Rabbourne. ho laid the release before him nnd closo beside It a blank contract Radbourne looked nt them both for several minutes and then slowly took up a pen nnd filled the blank out for a sum only $2,000 higher than he had been getting and tore up the release. Allen almost fell on his neck and wept for joy. Portland Orcgonlan. Explaining It, The tortoise had won the race. "I didn't half try." said the hare, with a yawn. "What's tho use?
