FOOLED THE STUDENTS. A Clover Hoax That Was Perpetrated at Harvard University. Richard Washburn Child, the nov ellst. when at Harvard university was the originator of a joke which has become perpetuated in the university. The Bookman describes the incident as follows: "While an undergraduate at Har vard Mr. Child happened to be. among other things, one of the board of cdi tors of the Lampoon. The Crimson, the Harvard undergraduate daily, had

announced that it would print no edi I tion on Memorial day, 1001. At Mr. Child's suggestion the Lampoon issued a fake number of the Crimson, delicately enough caricatured to deceive all but the most observant readers. "The appearance of the college paper was accurately reproduced, even to certain typographical errors for which the Crimson had been notorious, but the contents were such that the whole Cambridge community was for a time In turmoil. Information that the janitor of one of the college laboratories bad upset a jnr of microbes and that all those who had been near the laboratory should report at once to the college doctor; that So-and-so of the crew squad had rowed himself out of his shell, but had renched shore without ill effects, and that the president and fellows of Harvard college had decided not to ofTer President McKinley an honorary degree was given with the utmost gravity. "A statement in the fake that the Crimson was making more money than was warranted and that $1.50 on all $3 subscriptions would be returned that afternoon brought many freshmen to the Crimson office at the appointed time. A sign, hung in the night over the Crimson onVe. reiterated this announcement and was another part of the hoax. Its complete success was for long the talk of Cambridge and the forbidden subject of conversation In the Crimson sanctum." A Bit of Holmes' Wit. Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, the poet and wit, wrote to a committee declining to accept an invitation to deliver a lecture. "I am far from being in good physical health," wrote the doctor, "and I am satisfied that if I were offered a fifty dollar bill after my lecture I should not have strength enough to refuse It." A Real Skeptic. Orville Wright, at a banquet In Dayton, told of an obstinate old Daytonian who. looking up one still afternoon at the Wright biplanes circling smoothly and steadily through the air, said: "When people first told me about this WATCHING THE BIPLANES, here fly in' I called 'em liars. Then when I read about it in the papers I said it was a fake." The old man, watching the biplanes moving in great curves like lazy birds, shook his head thoughtfully. "By crinus," he said, "I ain't what ye mout call convinced yet, nuther." Practical Politics. A political office in a small town was vacant. The office paid $250 a year, and there was keen competition for it. One of the candidates, Ezekiel Hicks, was a shrewd old fellow, and a neat campaign fund was turned over to him. To the astonishement of all, however, he was defeated. T can't account for it," said one of the leaders of Hicks' party gloomily. "With that money we. should have won. low did you lay it out. Ezekiel?" "Well," said Ezekiel. slowly pulling his whiskers, "yer see, that fBce only pays $250 a year salary, an' I didn't see no sense in payin' $900 out to get the office, so I bought me a little truck farm instead."

Brilliant Emerald Hues Tint the Sky at Morn and Eve. , In Egypt, where the atmosphere la very clear, the green tints of the sunset light are peculiarly distinct As the sun descends nearer and nearer to the horizon and is Immensely enlarged its rays suddenly become for an Instant of a brilliant greea. Then a succession of green rays suffuses the sky well nigh to the zenith. The same phenomenon occurs at sunrise, but less conspicuously. Sometimes at sunset. Just as the last portion of th? sun's disk vanishes, its color changes from green to bine, and so also after it has disappeared the ky near the horizon Is green''while toward the zenith it is blue. The fact was. of course, observed by ' the ancient Egyptians, and references thereto are found In Ibelr sacred writings. Day was the symbol of life and nlcht that of death The setting sua being Identified, with Osiris, that god became king of the dead. The netting sun wss green: therefore Osiris as the nocturnal deity of the dead was painted greeu. The splendid coffins of the high priests of Amnion fretjnentlj depict the green sun. and the funeral aeines sre all colored green. This association or oeatn wit a green was onoontnea- ( ly due to the creen tints of the Egyp-. tian sun at sunset Youth's Compao-. Ion. COFFEE WITH AN ARAB. It Protects Even Murderer Where the Cup Hae Been Shared. Describing the hospitality of an Ara. Man home, the "Last Journal of Biso Haonlngton" says: The great event of the visit is the coffee. The host has a kind of brazes shovel brought, ic which be roasts the beans; then he takes pestle and mortar of the oak of Bashan. and with bis own bands be pounds it to powder, making the bard oak ring forth a sons 3? welcome to the guest. Many of these pestles and mortars are heirlooms and are richly ornamented and beautifully black and polished by age and use. Such was the one In question. Having drank .-offee (for the honored guest the cup to filled three times), you are quite safe in the bands of the most murderous. So far do tbey carry this ruperstitlon that a man who bad murdered another fled to the dead man's father and before he knew what bad happened drank coffee. Presently friends came in and as they were relating the news to the bereaved father recognized the murderer crouching beside the fire. They Instantly demanded vengeance. "No. said the father. "It cannot be. He has drunk coffee and has thus become to me as my son. Had be not drunk coffee the father would never have rested txatil be bad. dyed bis hands in his blood," .
