several minor crevices. Sure enough the

James says, on the suspected gent.eman's

it, in huge tin kitchen, q turkey was
browning itself into climax. All of a

the tin kitchen was blown into a thousand
atoms, the dismembered turkey flew
through the atmosphere, and the old tom
cat disappeared up the chimney. The
old gentleman and his maiden sister were
horribly "skeert," but not materially in
jured, aud the former was the first to win
his voice.

GA soldier at Madrid lately stole a
gold cup from an altar dedicated to the
Virgin, and was arrested He boldly de-
clared that being in distress he had APP
pealed to the Holy Mother for assistance,
and that while engaged in prayer and
contemplation of the four millions worth
of jewelry displayed on her brccaded pet
ticoat, she stopped, and with charming
smile, handed him the golden cup. This
explanation was received by the Court in
profound silence, and the case handed
over to the ecclesiastical commission, to
whom it at once occurred that, however
uconvenient the admission OF the miricle
might be, would be highly impolite to
dispute its impossibiity. The soldier
was therefore declared not guilty and
told not to do it again.
