The cabmen in Paris during the recent
rains became unbearable One curious case
of incivility in the first place and assault in
the second was brought into court. During
a heavy downpour cabman who had forgot
ten his waterproof pulled up and attempted
to seek shelter inside his vehicle. His fare
naturally objected to this arrangement, and
fight ensued, which ended in the fare being
dragged out of the cab. The struggle was
being continued on the pavement, when a
couple of policemen, CALAMITY quitting the
shelter of a doorway, arrived on the scene,
and, having separated the combatants, who
looked as if they had been pulled out of the
river, installed themselves in the cab and
took down the DISPOSITIONS of both parties.

A Fly Lives Ten Months in a Lady's Ear
lEaston ga Free Press.]

About ten months ago common house-fy
crept into the ear of Mrs. Joseph Fisher, of
the American Hotel. The surrounding parts
soon became infamed and very painful. The
sense of hearing was speedily impaired, and
finally lost altogether. After months of suf-
fering, on last Thursday evening, as she lay
in her bed, she became conscious of the de-
parture of the intruder from her ear. She
called an attendant, and, on searching, they
found the cause of the trouble, as stated, a
common house fly, lying on the pillow, we'll
covered with the cerumen of the ear. Mrs.
Fisher is more comfortable since its removal,
although her hearing has not yet been
restored.

Literature has been ransacked by genera
tiOns of commentators, who have sought for
illustrations of Shakespeares plots and the re-
suit of their researches is the book before us;
but we need not suppose that everything is
yet discovered. Renewed attention to this
subject will probably be rewarded by some
discoveries; thus Miss Tulmin Smith read a
paper before the New Shakespeare society,
last April, on the Bond story in the Merchant
of Venice" in which she traces it to an old
English poem, entitled "Cursor Mundi, "
written at the end of the thirteenth century,
This is the earliest form Of the story yet known
in which Jew appears. Many Of the stories
printed by Mr. Hazlitt have little appearance
of being Shakespeare immediate models and
it is probable that the books he used are lost.
Lost books are sometimes found, and we
may hope that in the course of time some Of
these may be grabbed out of obscure corners.
The second part Of Mr.. Hazlitts collection,
which consists of the foundation and .other
plays, is peculiarly valuable, as it contains
the Contention" the ''True Tragedie of
Richard ILL.," Legge's "Richardus Tertius,"
" Timon of Athens" and Shakespeares own
first sketch of the Merry Wives of Wind
sor,' besides the six plays printed by
Nichols. Nicholss collection cannot be said
to be edited at all, for the plays printed
from late editions are without any note of the
dates of the first editions This fault is recti-
fed by Mr.. Hazlitt, who prints from the best
copies, which in some instances are uniqua

Three Young Girls Attacked by Buck
Deer while Rowing Across Pond.
New York Sun, 4th.l

Yesterday afternoon, three young women
residing near the Big Brink Pond, in Shoholf
township, Pa, started to go berrying. They
were obliged to cross the pond to reach the
woods. Before entering the boat they saw
something in the distance swimming in the
water. Thinking it was dog, they paid nc
further attention to it, but started on theil
way across the pond, which is about two
miles wide
After rowing for several hundred yards,
the girl who was plotting the boat saw what
they first thought to be a dog swimming in
the water was a buck, which was coming di-
rectly toward them. Having a clumsy pair
of oars, it was some time before the boat
could be returned, and then the deer had
reached to within q few yards of them. The
girls became greatly terrified, for the deer was
fast gaining on them, and from the way it
snorted and plunged, they were satisfied it
meant mischief.
While the one rowed with all her might the
other two padded, thus somewhat increasing
their speed; but the deer was slowly gaining
on them, and knowing they could not reach
the shore before being overtaken, they ceased
rowing to prepare for the inevitable battle.
When the deer, snorting and plunging, had
reached to within a few feet of the boat, it
stopped for moment. Then it made sud.
den plunge, and as its head struck the side of
the boat, the brave girls brought down their
raised paddles upon it with such force as to
drive it under water. The girls again raised
their only weapons, and as the head rose to
the surface they again brought their paddles
to bear upon it with the same result
When the deer again raised from the water
it seemed to realize that this was to be the
death struggle, and its eyes cleaned like balls
of fire. 1t made lunge, and threw its force
feet over the side of the boat, near the oar
locks. This nearly capsized the clumsy craft.
and threw Maggie Jordan, the Oldest of the
three, into the water; but as she fell she
caught the edge of the boat, and was hauled
in by one OF her companions. Then the
heroine at the oars, as she felt the animals
breath in her face, raised paddle and struck
for her life, and as the blow fell across the
deer's head the blood started from its nostrils,
and it sank back helpless and seemingly
dead but really only stunned. The girls then
started for the shore, leaving the deer strug-
Cling between life and death in the water.
Reaching the shore, one of the girls ran to
a small log cabin, an eighth of a mile distant,
in which lived family by the name of Ber-
ger, and told what had occurred. Mr.. Berger
seized his rifle and went to the pond, where
he found the wounded deer yet struggling in
the water, few rods from the shore. He
rowed out to it, and Selling it by the antlers,
cut its throat, and then towed the body to
the shore. The deer was the largest ever
killed in the neighborhood, weighing 227
pounds

variably styled the Moor, Cassie the heuten
ant, Iago the ensign. We might at first come
to the conclusion, in considering these two
plays, that Shakespeare had followed hi
original closely in Romeo and Juliet" be.
cause it was an early work, and had allowed
more scope for his imagination in his middle
period when he wrote "Othello," but this
view is negatived by the fact that in "Wln
ter's Tale" Zone of his very latest plays), he
followed most closely story which, curious
ly enough, was written by Robert Greene,
the university playwright, VINO was Jea GUS OF
his early fame
Having said a word in favor Of Brooke s
poem, we must not forget to give its share OF
praise to Lodges pretty little story OF
"Rosalyde," which was also entitled
"Euphues's Golden Legacie." This reads
like prose version of 'As You Like 1t, " so
closely have some of the incidents been fol-
lowed by Shakespeare. Many of the names
are alike though some were changed for the
better in the play. Shakspeare's Celia is
named Ainda by Lodge, but Alinda and
Rosalind take the names of Aliena and Gany-
mede when they fly the court. The prose is
interspersed with pleasing verse, for the
shepherds and shepherdesses are ready to
breek out into song on the slightest provoca-
ton. Phebe's scornful reply to her lovers
fine phrases is worth quotation as specimen
of Lodges poetic vein
When love was first begot,
And by the movers will
Did fall by human lot
His solace to fulfill,
Devoid CT all decelpt,
A chast and molly fire
Did quicken mans concept
And woman's brest inspire
The gods that saw the good
That mortals did approve
With kind and holy mood,
Began to talk OF Love.
But during this accord
wonder strange to heare:
Widest Love in deed and word
Most faythful did appeare.
False semblance came in place,
By jealousies attended,
And with double face
Both love and fancie BLENDED,
Which make the gods forsake,
And men from fancie file
And maidens' scorn make,

In Giraldi Cinthio's novel Of the Moor of

the most exquisite of poems is Shakespeare's

for the breach of the peace, but, instead OF
responding, he telegraphed the secretary
of state that "the person of the United
States consul at Trpoli was IN danger
and asking protection. Several United
States war vessels were dispatched to Tri-
poll, the customary apologies were made,
and "the insult fully atoned for"
From reading the official reports, sum-
married above, 1t is left somewhat in doubt
whether the national honor was insulted
when the sailor wanted light, because he
made the consul chase him instead of vol
unfairly allowing himself TO be shaken, or
when he was summoned to appear before
the police court TO answer for criminal
violation of the laws of Tripoli. but we
may venture to express the opinion that
the honor of the United States was as
much furnished by the uhseemly acts of
the consul as it was by the summons of
the police court or the request of the
smoking sailor. But the insult is fully
"atoned for" although the breach of the
laws of Tripoli remains unpublished. Per-
haps the honor of the United States would
be saved from good many insults, II the
government were trihe more careful in
selecting consuls, who are supposed-a vio-
