4 T0oTHsOME ROMANCE

A touching tale of mans inconstancy
and cruelty comes to us from Evans
vile, Ind. It is but the old story of
superficial affection and ruthless deser-
ton, but there is a slight variation
from the usual details which gives the
case special interest. But fewshort
weeks ago the relations existing be-
tween certain man and woman of the
town mentioned were of the closest and
warmest. Mutual VOWS were inter-
changed, and, for once, the course of
true love promised to run as smoothly
as the muddy Ohio meandering past
the towE. It is recorded that the
amorous lover, in the. depth of his
affection, even went SO far as to present
the lady with set of false teeth to re-
place the natural ones missing from the
lips where his were wont to stray and
sip the honey-dew of love. But man is
tickle, and this man wasn't any excep-
ton TO the rule. He allowed his affec-
tions to transfer themselves to another
Evansville maiden. Then came the
unkindest cut of all. The new inamo-

the hard hearted lover went TO her he
had deserted, and, wrestling away the
set of false teeth he had bestowed, pre-
sented them to the new love. No won
der that outraged maidenly self-respect
rebelled at such an act The first
wearer of the teeth now wants the as
sistance of the police to recover the
useful apparatus, aud there is great
commotion over the case in the society
of Evansville. The case, taken alto
gether, is remarkable one, and sug-
gests one interesting query: Are all
Evansville women toothless? Will the
Evansville papers explain the matter ?

ALGERIAN RACES.

M. Topinard concludes his paper on
the anthropology of Algiers, by draw
ing attention to the five periods which
characterize the anthropological history
of the colony, and which are those of
the brown-skinned Kabyles; the light.
skinned Kabyles; the Numidians, to
whom we must refer the greater num-
Der of the Berber inscriptions hitherto

and lastly. the Aryans. NJ. Topinard
is of the opinion that in the fair and
dark-skinned Berbers we have kindred
race with the oldest West European
races, and that therefore, with due re-
gard to locality, we have evidence that,
European colonies could be made, like,
those tribes, to flourish in various parts
of Algiers. In the meantime, however,
as General Faidherbe has remarked, it
chronological importance TO investigate,
and, If possible, arrest, the causes which
are diminishing the numbers of the
native population, whose existence is
the more important from their being
the best able to bear the climate and
cultivate the soil. nj. Topinard con-

any important constitutional faint,
while famine, war, and many other
causes depending upon political condl-
tions, are probably the most Important
agents in the process.

SINGULAR.

The Galveston NeaOs relates roman
tic story of Texan murder and the dis
covery of the murderer. It is to the
effect that some weeks since, in the Cot
tonwood neighborhood in Guadaloupe
county, MIR. Job brennan and his wife
and daughter, when returning from
meeting, were shot by wayside assassins.
Near the bodies piece of gun wadding
was found, but partly burned, and tracks
leading toward the house of an old
man. a German named Kunda, and his
son Fred. In the old mans house, on
the mantel shelf, was found torn Ger

LAND SLIDE ON THE AMAZON.

The banks of the Amazon are not just
the place one would like to locate a
house, if we may believe Mr.. Bates.
He says that canoemen on the Upper
Amazon live in constant dread of the
landslips, which occasionally take place
along the steep earthly banks. especially
when the waters are rising. Large yes
els are sometimes overwhelmed by
these avalanches of earth and trees.
One morning / was awakened before
sunrise by an unusual sound, resem-
bling the roar of artillery. was lying
alone on the top of the cabin it was
very dark, and all my companions were
asleep-so lay listening. The sounds
came from considerable distance, and
the crash which aroused me was sue
ceeded by others much less formidable.
The first explanation which occurred to
me was, that it was an earthquake for,
although the night was breathlessly
calm, the broad river was much agita-
ted, and the vessel rolled heavily.
Soon after, another loud explosion took
place, apparently much nearer than the
former one; then followed others. The
laundering peal rolled backward and
forward, now seeming close at hand,
and now far off; the sudden crashes
being often succeeded by a pause, or a
long continued dull rumblng. At the
second explosion, Vicente, who lay
snoring by the helm, awoke, and told
me it was terra cahida," but could
scarcely believe him. The day dawned
after the uproar had lasted about an
hour, and we then saw the work of de-
struction going forward on the other
side of the river, about thre e miles off.
Large masses of forest, including trees
of colossal size, probably two hundred
| feet in height, were rocking to and fro.
and falling headlong, one after the
other, into the water. After each ava
| lanche, the wave which it caused re-
turned on the crumbly bank with ire
| mendous force, and caused the fall of
other masses, by undermining them.
The line of coast along which the land
slip extended, was mile or two in
length the end of it, however, was hid
| from our view by an intervening island.
It was grand sight, each downfall
created cloud of spray the concus-
sion in one place causing other masses
to give way long distance from it. and
thus the crashes continued, swaying to
and fro with little prospect of ter
mination. When we glided out of sight,
two hours after sunrise, the destruction
was still going on.-Mr. Bates NeaO

The English government has an ele-
phant on its hands in the iron-clad
Devastation. She was designed a. far
back as the early part of 1869, and sbe
has never yet been trusted in really
rough ocean waters. There was tall
of sending her to Vigo this autumn to
see how AtIantac waves agree with her !:
but the visit Is postponed, for it has
been discovered that all openings to be
below, except from the hurricane deck,
would have to be closed for four or five
days, and toward the end Of that time
the atmosphere between the decks
would become "pOisoned air-bath. >

MISUNDERSTANDING.

The majority of the boats used in the
fisheries are ordinary fishing boats
three parts decked over, and carrying
one mast with an ordinary lug-sail.
They are from eighteen to thirty feet in
length, and are manned by crew of
four or five men, one of whom is spe-
cially engaged for the purpose of haul
ing, while the rest are divers. In some
cases the men own their own boats, but
generally they are hired for the season,
which extends from June to the middle
of October. No wages are paid the
remuneration consists in an equal share
of the produce of the fishing. The
profits of good diver reach as high as
forty pounds a season. Diving is prac-
ticed from a very early age up to
forty years, beyond which few are able
to continue the pursuit. It does not
appear, however, that the practice has
any tendency to shorten life, although,
as the diver approaches forty, he is less
able to compete with his younger and
more vigorous brother. The time dur
ing which a Syrian diver can remain
under water depends, of course, on his
age and training. Sixty seconds is
reckoned good work, but there are rare
instances of men who are able to stay
below eighty seconds. The men on the
coast, however, make extraordinary
statements as to the length of time
their best hands are able to remain
under water, and gravely assert that
eight and ten minutes are not impossi-
bilities. For the benefit of the curious
In such matters, we give description
of the manner of diving The diver
naked, of course with an open net
around his waist for the receptacle of
his prizes, scizes with both hands an
oblong white stone, to which is attached
rope, and plunges overheard. On ar
irving at the bottom, the stone is de-
posted at his feet, and keeping hold of
the rope with one hand, the diver grasps
and tears off the sponges within reach,
which he deposits in his next. He then.
by series of jerks the rope, gives
the signal to those above, and is drawn
up-very thankful to once more breathe
his native air, one would imagine.

An application of photograp ny,
which is aptly described as startling,
has been hit upon by an English anna
teur, whose name is not given. The
inventor claims to have discovered a
method of fixing the image of an object

half an inch in diameter, an impression
from which can be afterward enlarged
TO the necessary size. The plate is
