Fats of Valerien of Rome, Captured by the Persians. One of the tnsst remarkable stuffed skins en record was that of Valerian, emperor of Rome, who was taken prisoner and afterward kept in chains by Sapor, kins of Persia. He was either killed in a tumult or by order of his conqueror, who was perhaps fearful of losing his rai-.iable living trophy, in the year 2U0. The botty of the dead emperor was treated with no more delicacy than when it held the spark of a living one. It was skinned. The hide after being tanned was stuffed, painted red and suspended In the chief temple of the capital. It remained there for mauy years and was the popular spectacle for holiday makers and visitors from the country. But It was put to more Important ends than this. It was made a diplomatic engine of much significance and efficiency. In after times it often happened that the Roman envoys at the Tersian court had misunderstandings more or less serious with the government to which
they were temporarily accredited. When these ambassadors from Rome grew arrogant in their demands. It was the custom to conduct them Into the presence of the stunTed skin of the exemperor of Rome, where they were asked If humility did not become them at sight of such a spectacle.
CONSPIRATOR BECOMES INSANE.
Henry Nettles, an Indianapolis colored man who is short, stacky built and bow-legged, today took Luther Trevan, colored, who Is big and powerfully built, back to Indianapolis to
answer a charge of petit larceny, Nettles claiming that Tievan stole from him three weeks ago a suit of clothes
and an I. O. O. F. pin. Nettles la not
an oincer nut wnen he was askea it he was afraid to take Trevan back with him to Indianapolis he laughed
scornfully. "I'll take him back if you
will lend me a pair of handcuffs," said Nettles. This was done and passen
gers on a west bound interurban car stared wonderlngly when the short captor boarded the car with the gigantic prisoner. Nettles at police headquarters stated that he and Trevan had lived in the same boarding house and had worked for the same concern. About three weeks ago, Nettles stated, Trevan entered his room and stole the clothes
and the lodge pin. The latter he
pawned in Indianapolis and then skip
ped out for parts unknown, it is claimed. Wife Supplies Clew. Nettles stated that Wednesday Tre
van telephoned to his wife in Indianapolis stating that he was in Rich
mond, his former home, and asked her
to join him here. Mrs. Trevan went to Nettles and told him where her
husband was. . Without losing any
time Nettles boarded a traction car and came to this city. He located Trevan then swore out a warrant for
his arrest. Trevan was placed in cus
tody Wednesday night.
This morning Trevan asked to see
Nettles. When Nettles was taken to the city jail Trevan looked him over with a sneer on his face then asked.
"What are you going to do with me?" Nettles returned the stare, then answered. "I'm going to take you back to Indianapolis with me.' Nettles then
left the jail. Prosecutor Jessup told
Nettles that he had a right to take
Trevan back with him as Trevan had committed a felony and that the law
provided that In such cases any man
had the right to arrest and to bring
to justice the person who committed the felony.

There's a Reason
Schoolboy AniHeri. Here are some assertions from compositions by American schoolboys: "Franklin's father was a tallow chandelier. "The elioate of North America Is embracing." "This song is In the key of B flap." "There are five bowels a, e, 1. o and u. "The snow is painting the town white." "He lived in Canabridgepork.' "Man is In the muscular gender because It denotes a male." "Th?y went to the foolish (Polish) church." Question: "What is geography?" Answer: "Geography is round, like a ball."
It Is an Indiscreet and troublesome ambition that cares so much about fame, about what the world says of us; to be always locking In the faces of others for approval; to be always anxious about the effect of what we do or say; to be always shouting to hear the echoes of our own voices. Longfellow.

Many Legends and Traditions That Link Them Togethor. In all countries in which the witchcraft delusion now exists or in which It prevailed in former times we find folklore stories connecting those mysterious bogies with the plants of those particular regions. Even the great Shakespeare causes hi witches to discourse learnedly on the diabolical properties of "hemlock dlgg'd 1' dark" and of "slips of yew silvered in the moon's eclipse." They are supposed to have had their favorite flowers as well as plants, and in England at the present time foxglove is spoken of as "witch lells" and harel?lls as "witches' thimbles. The common ragwort is well known as the "witches' horse." the tradition being that they mounted rank growths of that species of weed and "rode the skies," just as the dame with the pointed hat rides the broom In the familiar picture. In Germany and throughout northern Europe It Is the belief that witches float from place to place on beds of hay, composed largely of witches' blossoms and "devil 6plkes," this last bing a species of dwarfed slough grass. St John's wort, which Is now so popular for shoulder and buttonhole bouquets on St John's eve, was formerly worn for the express purpose of averting the crafts und subtleties of the witches, bogies, ghosts and spirits which the European peasantry believed walked abroad on "that night of witching mysteries."
