A Stage Fire.

In a piece by Victor Sejour, entitled
"La Madame DIES Roses" there was
shown a spacious hall in a palace, with
a terrace and staircase at the back,
which were consumed in the flames.
The effect Of the servants and others
flying through the flames to make their
escape, of the falling rafters, the sparks,
the lurid red which filled the whole
scene, was so complete that the specta-
tors rose from their seats in alarm.
Nothing was more simple than the
agency employed. The ordinary lime
light, turned on to the full, suffused the
stage with a flood of light, and seen
through crimson glasses impaired II
fierce glow Of the same tint. Any va
por of the whitest kind moving in such
a medium would at once give the no.
ton of volumes Of lurid smoke. Ac-,
c~ordingly, a few braziers filed with a
known as ''lycopodium" are
placed at the wings, each fitted with a
sort of forge bellows, each blast pro-
a sheet of flame and smoke.
The lights in front being lowered, rows
Of little jets, duly screened, are made
to follow the flues Of the beams, raft
ers, ETC., and thus make these edges
stand out against the fierce blaze. The
view, therefore, from behind, has thus
an almost prosy and orderly aspect;
but the effect is complete. There is all

The Betting Mania.

The New York correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune writes: Of all the
utterly disconsolate men in the world,
those fellows in this city whose money
is tied up in the pools sold on the cleo
ton results are the most miserable.
Those who bet on the Republican side
will not give up, while those on the
Democratic side who imagine they are
winners arc unable to secure their win
nings. 1t is estimated that there is an
aggregate of 81, 500, 900 held in the pool
boxes, of which John Morris.ey holds
Sl,250,000. The feelings of those who
have made investments in the pools
may be imagined when a report was
bulletined and extensively circulated
last Saturday night that one of the pool
sellers had absconded that day with
over q half-million dollars Of pool
money. All day Sunday inquiries were
made among the booksellers as to the
truth of the story, and not until Sum
days papers definitely contradicted the
rumor did the excitement finally SUBJ
side.
1t is related of a Republican politician
who has wagered heavily in favor Of
Hayes and Wheeler that he lamented
on the morning after the election that
he had lost. TO console mis- wife, who
looked daggers at him as he confessed
his folly, he said: "Now, my dear, l
had intended il l had won to eXpend it
all in buying you a magnificent pair of
diamond solitaires, the very thing
you've set your heart on" She could
not smile even with this explanation,
but, woman.like, bore the inward pain
without an outward murmur. The next
night the husband came home in IL hap
py mood, exulaiming as he entered the
house, "It's all right my dear; Hayes
is elected-the latest returns make it
out a sure thing; and l have won my
bet" The wife smiled this
time, but said nothing. She
read the Times in the morning
with great glee, and her husband in
sisted that it was all true. The next
Saturday the wife quietly proceeded to
Titlany's and selected a pair Of soli-
taires worth $500. Still she said moth
ing, but on the next (last) Monday
evening her husband and herself were
to join q theater party to see the
"Shaughraun, when she surprised her
other half by wearing the diamonds.
He asked her where she obtained them,
and when she explained that she bought
them at Tiffany's upon the strength of
his statement that he had won on
Hayes, he was inclined to retort. "But
my money is tied up in one of those IN
fernal pools, and it may be months be-
fore | can get it out, and perhaps
never" But he did nothing of the
kind. He informed her that the next
time she bought any thing of that sort
she had better do it with cash in hand
she might make a better bargain
that's all!

Good Wine Needs No Bush.

The following true adventure had its
foundation in the waggery of a gentle
man who may he called Mack, and &C.
Cured a few days since in a drug store
not far from the Public Square:
Entering the drug store Mack winked
at the clerk, and ut the same time took
from the counter a two dollar and a
half bottle of wine, which he slipped
under his coat. Approaching the pro-
prietor he said: 81 was compelled to
take q lot of wine ON a baddebttho 9th.
er day, and came in to see if l couldn't
sell you three or four Dozen"
1ssVnSA u~uoUAui, sulu MT. IrO-
p~rietor, ''as there isn't much call in that
line just now. What kind of an article
is itPn
"Here is a sample" said Mack, hav-
ing deprived the bottle of its label while
under his coat. "Try it,"
Mr.. Proprietor shook it, looked at the
light through it, and finally pulled out
the cork for a taste. Making some-
thing Of a wry face, he said: 81 don't
know about that, Mack, il hasn't just
the flavor l like. | couldn't get over IS
cents a bottle for it."
"Don't go too FAST" said Mack;
"before you pronounce an opinion you
ought to get better acquainted with it,"
GAN right" said Mr.. p, taking the
hint; "come into the back ROOM"
So into the back room they went, sat
down socially at "a table, and began to
canvass the situation in a remarkably
friendly manner, while Il couple of
clerks outside enjoyed the situation
amazingly. The wine all gone, Mack
arose to go as the druggist said: "Sev-
enty-five cents a bottle would be all l
could get for that, but if you're minded
to bring down three or four dozen, III
give you 40 cents per bottle for it,"
GAN right" said Mack, "you just
look for me around some of these
days"
1t is needless to say that ne did not
come. 1t is also needless to say that
the druggist is anxiously looking for
him, ready to give him Il reception far
more full of esprit" than was the
Vince Cleveland Leader.

Old-time Emigration.

Emigration in these days of steam
boats and railroads is comparatively a
trifling matter. But q hundred years
ago, when oX-teams and saddle-horses
were the only means of conveyance, it
was quite a serious matter. Then when
a party of e%migrants started from a New
England village for interior New York
or the Ohio River, they assembled on
the church-green, where religious serv-
ices were held, and the venerable pas
tor commended them to the special pro-
lection of Almighty God.
An old gentleman, who when but four
years old was carried by his father from
Vermont to the interior of New York,
tells some interesting incidents of pio-
neer life in 1890. A cart, two wagons,
two yoke of oxen, four horses, a few
sheep, hogs and cattle, and a little
household stuff, formed their worlds
wealth. They rode in wagons until the
roads became so bad as to force them to
journey on horseback. The wagons
were left behind until the roads settled.
The father rode one horse, the little boy
was placed on q pillow tied behind the
saddle, with a strap under his arms
buckled around his fathers waist. The
little girl sat on the pommel, supported
by her fathers arm; a larger girl rode
the horse which carried the bed and
bedding; II yearling colt tagged after,
and the rest of the party drove the live
stock.
Some of the privations were ludi-
crous. The family had arrived in the
country before sheep-shearing, and the
boy needed clothes. Not until next
spring could cloth be made. His moth.
err cut up al old cloak, and from it
made a little coat with pockets. His
grandfather got a sheepskin, out of
which he made the boy a pair oil
breeches. lie took off the wool, rubbed
it, pulled it, and then nailed it TO the
wagon-box to dry. 1t was very poorly
but the boy was cased in a pair
of ~sheepskin brooches. The skin was
dry, and ratified like parchment, and,
owing to the small size of the skin, the
brooches extended but a little lower
than the knees. In dry weather the
breaches ratified; in wet weather they
would stretch and become ilabby. When
they dried they would be shorter and
than ever. Thus pantalooned
and coated, he spent a very pleasant
season, until, sheep-shearing having
come around, he got a pair of wooden
pants - Youths Companion.
