CINE WITH HIS WIFE.

The old story of q room with a num-
Der of windows, one of which dlsap-
peared every day, and the o grad
ually contracted until it crushed its oc-
cupant to death, evidently haunted the
brain of o despairing Partisan icweler
who recently committed suicide. The
unlucky Frenchman, incensolable for
the loss of his better half, became sub
iect to a species of somnambulism. He
vas accustomed to veal q gold necklace,
one of his late wife's favorite ornaments,
and he used to say to his friends that
the necklace daily grew smaller, and that
his wife was thus p~ainlessly killing him,
much to his Joy. The fact was that
the somnambulist rose every night
and went in his sleep down to his in
struments, knocked off a link Of the
necklace and put on the fastening again.
Next morning he found the collar small
er, and having no recollection OF what
he had done, attributed the event to
supernatural influence. This continued
for some time, when the necklace grew
SO small that, in fastening it on, the
hapless widower actually garroted him.
self to death.

while tapping and testing the wheels,
vas astonished to find, secreted on top
of one of tho wheel-trucks that sup
port the body of the passenger car, a
middle-aged mar, who in this manner
had stolen a passage. The stranger
was told to vacate his dangerous hiding
place, and, upon creeping out, appeared
to be cold and stiff. He stated that he
had come all the way from California,
and had travelled altogether in that
manner. Such o thing is terrible to
contemplate. The only wonder is that
he was not struck ~dead-while telling

Leon Foucault, but the death of that
savant and She events of 1870 and 1871

4 few years ago, says the Cincinnati
Commercial, an American lady while
studying medicine abroad, having been
refused admittance to a purse of med
ical lectures IN n of the most noted
universities in Germany, determined TO
put on male costume and pass herself
off for a youngman. One day manner
lean Consul was summoned to a hotel
to see a lady from the United States.
As there WAS no reception room in the
hotel, he was shown to the room irdi-
Gated In the note he had received by the
servant. He looked in vain for the
lady, but saw what he supposed was a
young man sitting on a trunk. He
was soon undeceived. The "boy"
said h. was simply in disguise, and set
forth at length the reasons for such ex-
traordinary conduct. She said she was
resolved to attend that course of lect-
ures, and had called in the Consul to
give her real name and place OF resi-
dence in the United States, so that in
case of trouble she could appeal to him
for protection. The position of the
Consul was q novel one, but he finally
consented to take the lady's statement,
and promised TO keep the secret invlo-
late, unless she was discovered. This
did not happen. The disguise an
swered the purpose /; the lady remained
at the institution a year, passed
through the course with honor, and is,
doubtless, now applying the knowledge
gained in her practice somewhere in the
United States. We suppress all names
of persons and places for obvious rea
