HERR AMANN, THE MIMIC Why the Succtahe rs Cininane d When the German Actor Imitated Bismarck.

Ss stics show that, whereas Great | P in 1840 produced 75 per cent of | rld’s supp'y of coal, at the pres- ent » 1t produces only 34 per cent.

During the last 25 yc vs the world’s production of pig has inereaged from 12,006,000 to ',000 tons, but the share taken by Great Britain has fallen from 48.8 per cent to 29 per cent, while that of the U nite’ States has increased from 14.1 per cent to 26.2 per cent, that of Ger- many from 11.4 percent to 21.4 per cent, and that of Russia from 3 per cent to 4.7 per cent. Indeed, iron is now be- ing imported from the United States into this country, and, incredible as it may scem, the railway station at Mid- dlesbrough, the center of the iron trade, is built of irom brought from Belgium. Surely, then, the author of ‘‘Our Coal Resorrces at the Close of the Nine- teenth Century’’ is hardly right in thinking that British coal and iron still hold theirown. He argues that other countries of Europe are exhausting their coal »upplies just as Great Britain is, yet the figures he gives show that Ger- many has in reserve, within a depth of 8,000 feet, 109,000,000, 000 tons of coal as compared with our (England’s) 81,68»,000,000 tons within a depth of 4,000 teet. And this estimate does not include brown coal, of which Germany raises 25,000,000 tons anuually.—Na- ture. iron 26. ( On the High C's, Ellen Beach Yaw, the phenomenal soprano, went ona yachting cruise re- centiy in southern California. The waves ¢rew high, and she soon took to her b rth. One of her friends, going to inquire how she was progressing, heard her hi taming a lullaby in a most pecal- iar tone of voice. Her maid came to the door and explained that Miss Yaw was sick. ‘‘ But sheis singing,’’ the vis- itor exclaimed. ‘‘Yes, I know,’’ an- swered the maid, ‘‘but Miss Yaw moans in tune that way so it won't disturb any one else.’’—Kansas City Journal.

Other Eyes. Our I's are just as strong as they were fifty years ago, when have cause to use them. But we have less and less cause to praise ourselves, since others do the praising, and we are more than willing for you to see us through other eyes. This is how we look to S. F. Boyce, wholesale and retail druggist, Duluth, Minn, who after a quarter of a century of obser- vation writes: “T have sold Ayer’s Sarsapa- rilla for more than 25 years, both at wholesale and retail, and have never heard anything but words of praise from my customers; not « single com- plaint has ever reached me. I believe Ayer’s Sarsaparilla to be the best blood purifier, that has been introduced to the gen- eral public.” This, from a man who has sold thousands of dozens of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, is strong testimony. But it only echoes popular sentiment the world over, which has, ‘Nothing but words of praise for Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.’’ we Any doubt abont it? Send for“Curebook” It kills doubts and cures doubters.

It has now become that he was a ve ary muc h more nota rble per son than anything he did here people to believe. His experiences in Fu rope were never exploited in this country as they have been abroad, and this neglect probably cost Herr Amann cansiderable publicity. He isa short, stockily built nan, with large, broad face, which is, of course, smooth shaven. He is 43 years old now, and his father was a toymaker in Munich, where the imitator was born. Young Amann would have none of the toyshop and joined the famous company at the Meiningen Court theater. Once, while in Carlsbad, he met Laube of the Hofburg in Vienna, who, struck by his remarkable power of facial expression, advised him to devote his talents to making himself look like real persons instead of trying to be imaginary persons in plays. He took this advice and made up a list of eminent men whom he thought hecould resemble. It will be remembered by those who saw him here that his only assistance comes from the use of wigs and whiskers, with a characteristic bit of costuming occasional- ly when the characters are historical per- sonages as well known as Napoleon or George Washington. Once in Genoa the son of General Garibaldi saw him repre- sent his father and was so moved by the likeness that he burst into tears, but Bis- marck once had an interview with Amann after a performance and did not weep. ‘*] understand that you have represented me in France, Austria and Italy,’’ said Bismarck. ‘Yes, your hichness,”’ answered . the actor. ‘“*‘And how did I please the people of those countries?’’ asked Bismarck. **Oh, remarkably !’’ was the answer. **Indeed,’’ said Bismarck. ‘‘I never supposed that the French, the Italians and the Austrians liked me particularly.”’ ‘Oh, yes!’’ continued the actor, who had grown enthusiastic now. ‘I was greeted with applause on my first appear- ance, and when I took off my helmet the people yelled with delight.’’ ‘Of course,’’ answered Bismarck, ‘‘they cried out with delight when you took off your helmet and my three hairs were visi- ble!’’ Such personal study of the subjects is not frequently possible, however, to Herr Amann, who is obliged, as a rule, to copy conte:iporaneous celebrities from their photes:.:phs.—New York Sun. d him t 1086 Of Revolving Round a Small Boy. As one of the Columbia cars stopped at H street one evening a rather stout woman descended to the strect and walked diagonaliy toward the sidewalk. A little fellow on a wheel, who afterward proved to be the woman’s son, dashed toward her from the rear with the evident and praise- worthy intention of welcoming her home. The brake did not work in time, however, and he collided with his mother with con- siderable force. ‘his enraged the lady, and turning, aft- er she had recovered her balance, she pro- ceeded’ to warm the youngster with an umbrella. Two young fellows, who had no clew to the relationship existing be- tween the thrasher and the thrashed, hap- pened to be passing, and one thinking the punishment administered too. severe, in- terfered, and catching hold of the umbrel- la told the woman she ought to be ashamed of herself for beating a little boy that way. Just at this juncture the woman's hus- band came out of the house, and seeing a man with one hand grasping his wife's umbrella and the other clutching his son's collar, proceeded to mix up with the young man without further introduction. At this the companion of the young man put in his oar, and-the fight promised to em- brace the entire neighborhood, when the butcher, whe lives on the corner and who had seen enough to grasp the situation, separated the combatants long enough to explain matters and save the participants from arrest.— Washington Post.

Hill writes of ‘‘The Fire Patrel’’ in St. Nicholas, the final paper in his series cn the New York fire aepartment., Mr. Hill says: The ‘‘chemical engine,’’ used consid- erably in the fire depurtments of several cities, has aided materially in low< ring the loss by water at small fires. The preparation carried in the tanks of these engines has a double advantage—not only does it extinguish a large body of fire with the use of a small amount of but the liquid itself evaporates ily, leaving very little ‘‘drip’’ in the apartments or floors underneath the fire. The tanks of these engines are charg- ed with a solution of bicarbonate of so- da (baking scda) and water, with a small cylinder of sulphuric acid sus- pended at the top. When the tank is in- verted, this acid is emptied into the soda and water, and the mixture at ounce generates carbonic acid gas ata great pressure. Charging the liquid With this gas gives it the necessary pres- sure to drive it a considerable The hose is coiled around a reel cn of the engine, and a'ways nected with the tanks, so when the firemen ar- rive at a fire all they have to do is to run off as much hose as they need, dash up stairs with the line, give the order to ‘‘dump’”’ one of the tanks (there are two, carrying 60 gallons each), and they are all ready to go to work. The chem- ical cugine has extinguished more than <5 fires of considerable size since it has been in service in the New York depart- ment, a little over a year. It is station- ed on the upper west side of the city, where there are a great number of dwellings and flats, and it has aided materially in keeping down the fire losses in that part of New York. distance. top con Leipsic, Mrs. Isabel C. Barrows, in an article in the New York Independent on ‘‘ Plain Life and High Thought’’ as exemplified at Leipsic university, says: Leipsic is one of the great flower marts of Europe. It isa joysome sight to go through the early morning market and see the flowers of all kinds in masses beyond conception. There is no student so poor that he cannot add to the beauty of his room the charm of a flower when for 2 cents he can havea big bunch of mignonette. This very morning the expenditure of 24 cents gave one literal- ly an armful of mignonette, large and fragrant; forgetmenocts, bluer than the sky of rather gray Leipsic; great golden buttercups like those that grow on the up- land meadows of the Rigi; kornbluimen, the old emperor’s favorite flower, and lilies of the valley in profusion. Plain living, amid flowers, with music, na- ture and friendship at command, may easily lead to high thinking, and the student who is here to strive for ac- quirement of truth may well scorn the trappings of wealth, since wealth is not needed to command the highest and best.
