Strang* Way In Which Public Cam*
to Laarn of Operation on PresL

Aboard Benedlct'a Yacht.
By E. J. EDWARD8.
In August. 1893, there was printed
a newspaper report that told In de-
tail of a serious operation performed
upon the upper left Jaw of President
Drover Cleveland while he waa at sea
on the yacht of hla friend, B. C. Bene-
dict of New York. The report was In
Ibo best senae of the word sensation
ei; the operation waa the aole topic
of national discussion.
For some time thereafter the truth
of the report was disputed by several
newspapers, and It waa thought ad-
visable by those who were near Presi-
dent Cleveland at his summer home at
Buzzard's Bay to give out a qualified
denial of Its accuracy. But later, the
late Daniel 9. Lamont, then Cleve-
held a reception In the anthropological
museum of the affiliated colleges, and
amused and instructed his guests by
weaving a primitive flsh net. Of a
sudden he stopped weaving and fixed
his eyes on a tall blonde who wore a
hat under which Isbi could bide.
The blonde's face grew rosier and Ishi
kept staring. Then he grunted and
gurgled something to Sam Batwee, who 8ome 300 odd Tea" ago Capt.

The little colony, after an edventur

held services on a Sunday. Ten days

That "Old-Fashioned Man."
In reply to an inquiry as to what has
become of the old-fashioned man who
used his coat lapel as a pincushion, a
correspondent writes to the Kansas
City Star, from the town of Humboldt:
'The aforementioned old gentleman
has changed the location of his pins
and you will now find them in his vest
at the lowest point in front, on the
left-hand side. As to the old gentle-
man himself, he changed his own lo-
cation at the same time that he
changed the location of the pins. In
fact, being a wise old boy, he moved
to Humboldt. As he is a modest and re-
tion In the world.
Three hundred years ago the Kenne-
bec was bordered with dense pine
woods, and the pinnace was built from
materials cut right at hand. Today
the materials for the steel ships are
brought a thousand miles, and the
masts for the schooners come round
the Horn or overland from Washing
ton. But the members of Popham's
colony, by some strange fate, shaped
the destiny of three centuries of their
successors when they began shlpbulld'
ing on the shores of Sagadahoc.

To Factorylze the Farms.
That the tendency of the age is for
larger farms and better methods, with 1
a saving of cost by the use of modetn j
machinery, was the consensus of opin-
ion expressed at the fifth annual meet-
ing of the American Society of Agri-
cultural Engineers at St. Paul.
"There Is an increasing demand and i
we must make room for the master
mind in the agricultural field. There
are 8,000 less farms In Iowa this year
than last," said Prof. J. M. Davidson
of the Iowa State Agricultural college.
"An agricultural survey made in
Thompkins county. New York, showed
that the small farmer was at best only
making laborer's wages and that the
larger farmer was making money. It
means that the farmers must put the
farm on a factory basis and quit
guessing at profit and loss."
Ambitious.
A colored elevator boy at Bretton
hall remarked proudly to one of the
guests whom he often encountered:
"I'm going to quit this job next
week and go In business for myself.
I'm going to run a restaurant"
"Is that so?" replied the guest.
"Now, that's fine," he went on.
"You're ambitious."
"Yes, I'm ambitious to eat."—Ex-
