pupils were enrolled during the three

Differences i'm People.

There is vast difference in people,
However moralists and metaphysicians
may class them, there are opposite
points among the most similar which
are broad contrasts-sweet and sour,
winter and summer-or any other pro-
verbal antithesis. To some folks the
leaves of q forest are all alike, and a
school full of boys presents only so many
fao-similies of each other. Such person
ages regard all mankind as so many bi-
peds of the difference between them
they are scarcely conscious.
Some people soothe one like strain
of music, while others agitate every
nerve with the irritating power of dis
cord. How much might be said about
the difference of people in their charac-
ters and actions. There are those who
turn pale at the sight of cheese, and 9TH
ers who shudder at the mention of car
rots this one prefers hard eggs to soft,
and that one does not like buckwheat
cakes. These marks by which some of
our race are distinguished from the rest,
are but few of those which crowd the
mind. There are people who actually
detest children these who never have a
moment to spare and those who don't
know how to get through the day. Your
touchy people who are always pricking
up their ears to catch the first faint
sound of an insult, and your people
without humor who can never either
furnish joke or understand one. There
are two causes of the great difference
perceptible in people. Much may GER
tainly be ascribed to education, but
much also to constitutional dissimilarity.
Here is one ON whom good music acts
like enchantment; he cannot sit still
while hearing it !; his eyes fill with tears;
he forgets all his troubles, and when the
tune has ceased it is still in his mind,
bursting out at intervals in fragments
and EXPLANATIONS, and keeping him
awake in the night by its busy mental
repetitions. Who shall say that his ma
ture is the same as that of another who
finds in the Italian orchestra only dis
agreeable scraping, whose lips cannot
hum, whose imagination cannot contain
a tune? And thus on through life and
in every day intercourse if we but OBJ
sereve a lite carefully, we will scarcely
ever find two people ali1e--even those
pursuing the same avocations and united
by the closest ties, are oftentimes the
most dissirnilar in their natures.

Death of a Noted " "Medium."

The Sidney (Australia) Ne,Cs says
Mr.. w. H. II. Davenport, one OF the
brothers whose performances as illusion
lists have created for them worldwide
reputation, died at the Oxford Hotel,
King street, on Sunday morning, from
pulmonary consumption. The brothers
arrived at Sidney three weeks ago from
New Zealand, where they had been Civ
ing a series of performances, but while
there William Davenport broke a blood
vessel, and came to Sidney under the
advice of his medical attendants. He
seemed to be recovering his health after
his arrival here, and was in excellent
spirits, but broke second blood vessel
again last Thursday week, and another
one yesterday morning. This last proved
fatal. He was attended here by DR..
Markey, who, however, with DIR. Hal
kett, held out no hopes that he would
ever recover, the disease having taken q
firm hold on his system. He had been
suffering from phthisis for some years.
He leaves young widow, having been
married five months ago. His funeral
took place yesterday afternoon. Deceased
was q native of Buffalo, and was well
known here and throughout the country
as "spiritual medium, " whose bust
ness il was, with his brother, to give
what Spiritualists term "physical DEM
onstrations.

A Bold Exploit.

The following is from the diary of the
late Mr.. Adolphus, the barrister and his
torian: "May s, 1910: We had dinner
party, among them Mrs. Matthews and
Curran, who told an amusing story of an
agent to q nobleman in Ireland. 1t was
known to some ruffians in the neighbor-
hood that he had collected a large sum
for rents due to his employer. In the
middle of the night he heard thieves
breaking into his house. He jumped
out of bed, and arming himself with a
carving knife stood behind the door, and
closed it, SO that only one could enter at
time, which one would be shown in the
moonlight while he remained in the
shade. -Four of the thieves entered,
and were dispatched one after another,
those without not knowing what had
happened. The fifth saw the CLEAN of
the blade in the moonlight, seized the
man, and tremendous scuffie ensued.
The agent struck several blows with his
weapon, but made no impression. He was
got down and his antagonist over him,
when feeling the knife, he found the point
was bent. He had the presence of mind to
press it strongly against the floor, so as
to turn it back, stabbed his adversary
dead, and, as he was alone in the house
and could have no assistance till the
morning, retired to bed. He was
knighted for the exploit Some one
said to him: I wonder you could go to
bed while there were on the floor the
corpses of five persons whom you had
killed?' His answer was: 1t did make
me very uneasy; I could not get wink
of sleep for nearly an hour ="
