Greenville had two alarms on
Saturday before Christmas. The
first was about four o'clock P. M.
caused by lire on the roof of Dr.

without damage to the building.
About ten o'clock at night
alarm was given coining from the
prisoners in jail. That building
bad caught on lire under iron
to one of i be calls. There was
not wood enough to burn much.
but the iron bad to be cat
through and a hole knocked through
the lower part of i lie brick from
the outside before the lire could be

took i hours. Some members of
the Fire Company as well as some
citizens worked hard to get the lire
out. we cannot estimate the dam-

great.

Thus the ordinary yard fowl may

been looked upon as feathered fortune

their cages of trained birds, stand at the

passers by to allow the little feathered

France is universally held as a foreteller
of death, and its is not much
liked by English peasants. But in
America, among the population,
the brown owl, if uttering its hoot on the

site if on the left. In France and Bel-
the cry of the white owl is sup-
posed to foretell all sorts of misfortunes.
However, the counteract; remedy is

throwing a pinch of salt into the fire

Two crows, in some parts of Scotland,

Immense Gains In Force.
What science and invention is doing
for the human race was tersely
plainly presented. Note the following
Compare a galley, a vessel propelled by
oars, with the modern Atlantic liner, and
first let us assume that prime movers are
non-existent and that the vessel is to be
propelled galley fashion. Take her length
as some feet, and assume that place
found for as many as oars on each
side, each oar worked by three men, or
men; and allow that six men under
these conditions could develop work equal
to one horse power; we should have

we should have horse power, with
men at work, and at least the
same number in reserve, if the journey la
to be carried on Contrast
the puny result thus obtained with the
horse power given forth by a
large prime mover of the present day,
such a power requiring, on the above
mode of calculation, 117.000 men at
work and men in reserve; and
these to be carried in a vessel less than
feet in length. Even If were
to carry this number of men in such
a vessel, by no conceivable means could
their power be so as to Impart to
it a speed of twenty knots an hour,
weighing as it would some tons
gross.
Prime motors can do what human
muscle can never accomplish. Take a

that flies at the rate of sixty miles an

The Methodical Family.
Plainness and solidity mark whatever
belongs to the family. Tho houses, at
the corners of Thirty-third and Thirty-
fourth streets and Fifth avenue, in which
John Jacob and William Astor have lived
for years, are simple to baldness, are in-
deed ugly without, though very comfort-
able internally. But nowhere is there
any sign of ornament for the sake of
ornament. Richness is blended with
something of severity. The
passion for the and
decorative is not visible.

mainly dinner parties, but give
them sparingly, and always see that they
are fully and correctly advertised in the
social columns of the newspapers. Even

who are methodical and considerate of
cost in everything. They are trained to
be so from their infancy. Hence,
pulse, sensibility, romance, sympathy,
whatever belongs to the emotional or
ideal, is, if it appear, sedulously repressed.
Mrs. John Jacob Astor, who recently
died, was devoted to the poor, attend-
to their wants personally; but she
used in charity, I am told, only the in-

Waste of Power.
What a waste of brain power there is
in swindling. The swindler has all the
forces of law and order arrayed against
him. He is sure to be tripped up sooner
or later. The of a mistake is his
liberty, and the mistake Is bound to come.
The ingenuity he expends in his methods
if applied in a lawful direction is almost
sure to net him a larger return in cash
than it does when put to a crooked use.
The swindled person generally deserves
little pity. He expects to take
advantage of somebody, and he get
taken in himself. Cupidity is at the bot-
tom of both sides of a

over it about five pounds of floor. Clear-

worked the flour in for half an boor,
