The Unintentional Hishwayman

An occurrence Of short time ago has SO
amused English circles in Rome, and is
altogether so absurd, that we arc induced
10 mention it. An English gentleman
Just arrived, and now living with his wife
at one of The best hotels, after good din.
ner sailed out TO smoke a cigar and sur
vey the "City of the Soul" A brigh;
moon suggested the Coliseum and thilh-
er he bent his lonely steps, skirting the
Palatine, the Palace of the Caesars, and
the .Augustan Halls, and musing in silent
sadness on all around, holding sweet con-
verse with his soul and Byron. 1t is diff,
ficult to say to what conclusion he might
or might not have come on finding him.
self, for the first time, in such a place as
the Coliseum at such an hour, had moi
his grand and gloomy reveries been inter.
rupted at the sound of footsteps hastily ap.
preaching him from behind. He turned
around and beheld the figure of man at.
tired in the garb of priest. who. had is
sued from one of the rents OF ruin" and
who passed him so closel y as to rub
against his shoulder. In so doing the fig
ure in black lad almost disappeared be-
vond the Arch of Constantine, when hon
est John Bull bethought himself of his
watch, and, feeling for it, found not
what he sought. A moments reflection
determined him to follow the willy priest,
until he came up with him in space
where lurkers might not be hid so, poun-
cling upon his man, he demanded the res
tituuon of his property. The priest I'M
derstood no English, and our friend no
Italian but, as substitute for language,
the Englishman showed his fists, and
pointing 10 the watch pocket of the other,
made himself so well understood, that the
terrified and trembling ecceslastic at once
surrendered the watch which satisfied
his antagonist, and he returcd home.
On recouuting the affair to his lady, how
ever, he was not little astonished when
she pointed TO his own watch, living on
his dressing-table, which he had left be-
hind him on going out He drew forth
the other from his pocket, and glance
showed HIM that without intending 1t he
had been guilty Of highway robbery. On
going to the police the next day with a
friend, to explain the business, he found
that the priest, well known in Rome, as a
venerable and holy man, had already been
there, and deposed that, on taking his us
ual constitutional" after the heat of the
day, he had been accosted by a CARR

aces been obliged to deliver up his watch.

The NorthernL


The investigations in this country and
Europe into the nature and causes of the
Aurora Borealis, are educing certain facts,
that are found amenable to certain laws,
which may finally lead to the solution Of
this astronomical puzzle The Society Of
Edinburgh in 1910 ascertained that the
auroral appearances quite faithfully cor
respond 10 the Giurnal and annual varia-
lion or disturbances of the magetic needle.
They are most at o'clock, increasing to.
wards and diminishing from that hour oil
the night. They also greatest at the equi'
noxes, and least at the solstices. They
have also monthly variation of frequency
or INTENSITY, which depends obviously on
the age of the moon, being the greatest
when the moon is about at the end of her
first and third quarters. The results Of
these investigations are interesting.
