The Feat OF a Crazy Gymnast.

"Senor Mirande, gymnast, eclipsed
all his previous flights while delirious
from fever at New York, the other
evening. He had been so violent that
he was tied to his bed, but he broke the
cords, and with a shrek turned a SOM
ersault through the third-story window
and hung to the easement by his hands
his body swaying to and fro forty feet
above the sidewalk, while he shouted
to his friends: $50 away! I'll climb to
the moon!" Then he swayed his body
with increasing rapidity and let go, but
he grasped the metal leader of the house,
went up it hand over hand with the

There is more truth than poetry in
the following paragraph from the st.
Louis Globe Democrat: Wendell Phil
lips, who is n of the most perversc be-
ings on the face of the earth, and who
Is an impracticable politician, because
he is always from five to fifty years
ahead of his time, refuses to believe
that the interests of the freedmen will
be safe in the hands of the violent mig
ger-hating bourbons Of the south, and
he predicts hat the transfer Of control
to the bouibons will undo all the work
Of the war. One Of the reasons that
everybody denounces Wendell us a vio-
lent agitator is the fact that his predic-
tiohs always become true, and there is
no answering his arguments.

Burying q Fort.

Quite an original method of taking a
fort is described in Blackwood's Maya
zine. In 1896, a large Russian army
besieged the Turkish fort of Azof, which
was situated on a plain, strongly forth
fed, and had a small but well disci-
plined garrison. No common approaches
could be made to it, and the Turkish
cannon swept the level with iron hail.
In this case the engineering skill of the
Russians was bafled, but General
Patrick Gordon, the right-hand man of
Peter the Great, and the only one for
whose death it is said he ever shed a
tear, being determined to take the place
at any cost, proposed to bury it with
earth by gradual approaches. He had
a large army; the soil of the plain was
light and deep, and he set 1000 men
to work with spades, throwing up a
high circumvaiiatio lion Of earth wall be-
fore them in advance. The men were
kept in gangs, working day and night,
the earth being thrown from one to an
other like the steps of a stair, the top
gang taking the lowest place every half
hour in succession. In five weeks the
huge earth wall was carried forward
nearly n mile, until it rose to and
above the highest ramparts, and the
earth began to roll over them. This
caused the Turkish Governor to hang
out the white flag, and give in. Had
he not done SO, General Gordon would
have buried the fortress.

agility Of . monkey, and suddenly
plunged forward, landing upon the top
of a shutter on the top floor. Then he
swung on the fragile blind, which it
was feared would be forced from its
hinges by his weight, and suddenly
leaping in the air, grasped the gutter of
the house. He ran along the edge with
seeming indifference at the height at
which he was performing, and then
started to descend headlong the shutter
Of the adjoining house. Away he went,
leaping from shutter to window-sill,
until the top of the stoop was reached,
when he slid down one of the posts to
the street, escaping in the darkness.
He was finally caught, but died next
day.

The Days Before Teapots.

Two centuries ago tea was unknown
to our ancestors. 1t is difficult to think
Of the breakfast tables of those days,
with the nut brown ale as the only bev-
ersge. People would break fast at six
or seven in the morning, dine at twelve,
and sit down to dissipa.cd supper
say at half-past five. In China, India,
Arabia, Tartary, Persia and other bar
barous countries, the inhabitants were
slipping tea ont of little blue and white
cups that would fetch their weight in
gold now. while our civilized progeni-
tors drank beer out Of pewter. 1t seems
50 strange, but yet it is true. The
Dutch were the first to bring the little
leaf to Europe, They were the great
merchants of those days, and were
always introducing from the East new
sources of commerce. But tea was to
come to Europe as u drug before it be-
came popular as a drink. In 174l q
Dutch doctor. by name Tulpius, wrote
the praises of the new medicine, and
twenty yesrs afterward tea had passed
from the apothecary's drawers to the
round tables Of the restaurant. Then an
English peer took it up. 1t is recorded
Of Lord Arlington that he was tue first
to bring lea into England. What a lux
ury it was may be very easily guessed;
and the price was almost prohibitory.
The East India Company got the mo
nopoly of the tea trade between China
aid England. and on that occasion it
presented the King with truly royal
gift. The gift was two ounces OF tea.
but then the price was guinea an
ounce.
THE man who has nothing to do is
the most miserable of beings. No mat
ter how much wealth man possesses.
he can be neither contented nor happy
without occupation. We were born to
labor, and the world is our vineyard.
We can find a field of usefulness almost
anywhere. In occupations we forget
our cares. our worldly trials. and our
sorrows. 1t keeps US from constantly
worrying and brooding oyer what is
inevitable. II we have enough for our
selves, we can labor for the good OF
others; and such task is one of the
Host delightful duties worthy and
good man can possibly engage in.
The New York Society for improv-
ing the condition Of the poor. in its re-
port says that while acknowledging the
good results Of the expenditure Of mon
ey appropriated to the society by the
city from the excise fund, it cannot re-
frain from expressing the conviction
that the practice Of sppropriating the
city's money for charitable purposes re-
suits in more injury than benefit, the
tendency being inevitably to make
pauperism respectable and permanent.

Plain Truth.

In domestic happiness the wife's in
fiuences is much greater than her
husbands. By her management of
small sums, her husbands respecta-
bility is created and destroyed. No
fortune can stand the constant leakage
of extravaganza and Encouragement,
and more is spent in trihes than
woman would easily believe. The
one great expense, whatever it may
be, is turned over and carefully re-
fected upon ere incurred; the income
is prepared TO meet it. But it is pen
mics inn erceptiby Hiding away, which
do the mischief; and alone the wife
can stop. for it does not come within
mans province. There is often an I'M
suspected trife TO be saved in every
household. 1t is not in economy alone
that Il e wife's attention is so neces-
sary, but in those matters which make
a well-regulated household. An I'M
finished crueI-stand, Il missing key, n
shirt, soiled table-cloth, a
with its old contents
sticking hard brown about it, are really
nothings; but each can raise an angry
word or cause discomfort.
