The contract for keeping the church and town hall clocks in order was given to a new man. Unfortunately from the start he experienced a difficulty in getting the clocks to strike at the same time. At last the district council requested an interview with the watchmaker. "You are not so successful with the clocks as your predecessor." he was told. "It is very misleading to have one clock striking three or four mintites after the other. Before you took them in hand we could hardly tell the two were striking. Surely you are as competent?" "Every workman has his own methods, gentlemen." replied the watchmaker, "and mine ain't the same as H.'s were." "I'm decidedly of the opinion that it would be for the general good if they were." remarked one of the councilors. "Verv well. sir. in future they shall be." came the reply. "I happened to write to him last week about the trouble I had with the clocks. ar:d-but perhaps," he added as he produced a letter and handed it to the chairman. yoa'd like to see what he said." "Dear sir." ran the letter "about them clocks. When you get to know what a cantankerous lot of busybodies the council consists -of you'll do the same as I did for fifteen years forget to wind up the striker of the town ball clock, and the blooming jackasses won't be able to tell that both clocks ain't striking together!" London TitBits. Steered Straight. "If I thought that any girl would accept me," casually remarked the bashful Mr. Man. "I'd propose tomorrow." "Why not this evening?" asked Miss Fosdick coyly. The affair will take place in about a month.

WAS OBJECT OF CHARITY
DURING THE SEVERE COLO WEATHER, AGED WOMAN SUFFERED GREATLY UNTIL SHE WAS GIVEN NEEDED RELIEF. After having attained the advanced age of 102 years. -Granny" Maria Taylor, colored, an ex-slave, died la her miserable shanty of a home on South Sixth street yesterday morning. Granny" Taylor was a well known character In this city. She was born a slave and came to Richmond after tho civil war, where she has resided ever since. During the severe cold weather of the past two weeks "Granny" Taylor has been the object of much charity by the different organizations of the city. However, efforts to induce her to move into more comfortable quarters were futile and she Insisted on dying in the old weather beaten housu she had called her home for the past forty years. Death From Exposure. It is thought her death was largely due to exposure and lack of proper food. There are forge holes In the weatherboarding of the shanty and the wind is permitted to whistle through the humble quarters. Those who vis ited the home of the aged colored woman were moved to pity by the pathetic circumstances which surrounded the case It was the centenarian's desire that she be permitted to live until alter Christmas, and arrangements wero being made by the Associated Charities and Salvation Army to make her Christmas a happy one. The funeral will take place Tuesday afternoon at -o'clock, from the South Sixth street Methodist church. The burial will be at Earlham. Curious Laws In Mia. Sobs of the oM laws of Nepal. In dia, were curious. Killing cows ranksd with murder as a capital onrenss. sor Instance.

As tho fata ox too fruit was uncertain, tho girl won supto becooM a widow, xo obtain divorce from a husband' a wife had Anlv to Disco a botol nut under his puiow and depart. In Nepal tho day Is considered to begin when It Is light enough to count tho tiles on the roof or distinguish the hairs on a maa hand against tho sky. Ancient Sacrifices. Many Roman and Greek epicures wero very fond of dog flesh. Before Christianity was established among tho Danes on every ninth year ninetynine dogs were sacrificed- In Bwooon each ninth day ninety-nine dogs were destroyed. Bat later on dogs wero not thought good enough, and every nintn year ninety-nine human beings war immolated, tho sons of the reigning tyrant among the rest, in order that the life of the monarch might bo prolonged.
