Plenty Of Henrys.


Prince Henry VII of Reuss, German am:
bassador at Constantinople, is mentioned in
the latest war kilograms. It is curious
family, this family of Reuss, tracing its de-
scent back to Henry the Fowler, the great
German Emperor who died in 936. since
the beginning Of the eleventh century all the
heads Of the house have been called Henry.
At first they were distinguished by descrip-
tive appellations, as Henry the Rich" Hen
ry the Stout" or Henry the Valiant" but
subsequently they adopted numbers as more
convenient, and in the year 17O1 it was settled
at a family council that the figures should not
run hig her than 100: When Henry @ is reached
the next prince is Henry L This is the house
Of Reuss-Greiz. Prince Henry VII belongs to
all the princes are Heinrichs, and are distin-
guished by numbers, the series beginning
again with Heinrich I at the beginning of a
new century. The present prince of Reuss-
Schleiz is Henry XIV, son of Henry LXVII.

A Quaint Legend Of the Rainbow.

According to popular, belief in Ger.
/ many, the extremities Of rainbow al
y ways touch streams, whence It draws
water by means of two large golden
dishes. That Is why it rains for three
days after the appearance Of rainbow,
because the water must fall again on
the earth. Whoever arrives at the
right moment on the spot where the
rainbow Is drinking can take posses
sion OF the golden dish, which reflects
all the colors Of the rainbow; but II
nobody Is there, the dishes are again
drawn up into the clouds. Some saw
that the rainbow always lets dish fall.
This once happened at Reutlingen, in
Suabia. 1t broke In several pieces, but
the finder received q hundred guilden
sor II. AT Tubingen people used Co run
TO the end Of the rainbow, which ap-
peared to be resting over the
Necker or the Steinach. to "a.
cure the golden dish. Usually
II Is considered wrong to sell the
dish, which ought to be kept as an heir
loom Ia the family, for 1t brings good
luck. A shepherd In the Suabian Alps
once found such dish, and he never
afterwards lost sheep. An unfortu-
nate native OF Henbach. who cold the
treasure ct a high price, was struck
dumb on the spot. Small, round gold
coins, marked with CROSS or star. are
frequently found in Suabia, and the
peasants declare that these were manu-
featured from rainbow dishes by the
Romans when they invaded Germany.
In the Black Forest the rainbow used q
golden goblet, which 1t afterwards
dropped. A shoe thrown into a rain
bow comes back filled with gold. The
Servians have theory that passing be-
meath rainbow changes the sex.
When double rainbow is seen. Sua.
bian peasants say the devil would like
to Initiate a rainbow. but he cannot sue
coed. The Esthonians called the rain.
bow "the thunder OF Gods SICKLE" A
theory existed In the middle ages that
the rainbow would cease to appear a
certain number of years before the Last
j Judgment; and Hugo Won Timber, in
an old German poem, mentions forty
years MS the prescribed time.

An Unpleasant Accident.
NAV York Gayette.I


One OF those amusing, yet ludicrous
accidents. which will happen In the best
OF families, occurred on Wednesday last
on Second Avenue, opposite No. 80, The
facts. as far as could be ascertained, are
as follows:
"A Young man had an engagement to
take his love out buggy riding. On the
morning In question he appeared before
her fathers door with one OF those spi-
der.like vehicles, which are probably
constructed with the view OF ascertain.
Ing how light buggy can be made, and
at the same time be serviceable.
The lady Ia sweet sixteen. She is full
OF life, fun and frolio, and Is decidedly
enabonp0i7,t. weighing about lao pounds.
As the young gentleman drove up his
lady-love WAS standing on the top step
At the front door, and was shortly joined
by her venerable father. who had his
gold spectacles elevated on his fore
head In order to get distant view Of
the future son-in-law.
Adonis jumped out OF the buggy pre-
paratory to assisting the young lady in,
but she suddenly took one OF those
strange freaks to which the dear sex are
all subject.
The buggy was standing In readiness,
and the young lady thought that an
opportunity presented itself to convince
her lover that she was not clumsy, II
she was fat, and that the present was q
good time to show him her agility.
BE that as 1t may, she gave quick
skip, and selling the side of the buggy
landed In the centre OF 1t.
JIG she had stopped there, all would
have been we'll, but alas the thin
boards OF the buggy unable to stand
the pressure, gave way, and the lady
continued her descent.
There was q piercing scream, O plung-
Ing horse, with young man holding to
him; bundle OF muslin in the buggy,
and two little gaiter boots pointing to
whiting six inches of the ground
under It.
Paterfamilias rushed to the rescue
and detached the horse from the
buggy. He then got up on one side
and the young man on the other, and
tried to raise the young. lady up.
"Oh, !stopl" you are killing me" she
shouted.
The boards had broken in the centre,
downward, and when they attempted
to raise the young lady out Of her pre-
dicament these sharp splinters would
catch In her flesh Did you ever see a
wire mouse-trap2 IL not, 20 and get
one, stick your finger through the
entrance funnel and try to pull 1t out.
You will then understand the sad fix
that our young lady was in.
The old man comprehended the sit
uation in moment. He told the young
man TO get down and break the splint-
ers off. Young lady screamed, ooh,
qon'tl" and young man wouldn't.
Ait this stage OF the proceedings q
practical neighbor came up with O
Ratchet, and the young lady was soon
sextricated from her unpleasant t,itua-
tion, and disappeared behind the front
door.
He don't know whether the young
lady sustained any serious injuries or
mot, and we are not going to ask any
questions Of that young man.

was her child wanting to get In, opened
the door and beheld the victim OF most
horrible death. There stood Jimmie
with the last vestige OF clothing burned
| from his body, except his boots and a
little flannel collar, and his body down
to his feet burned almost into q perfect
crisp. Mrs. Fritz picked him up, ran
into the house, and began bathing him
with oil. The feelings of his mother
at this time no one but mothers can tell.
Yet her frenzied cries never seemed Tor
moment to daunt him or affect In the
least his presence of mind. He told
them to go after his little brother; that
he had left him at the fence, couldn't
help him over, and about how the acct
dent happened He said Guy was play
ing in the fire with stick and set him
afre; when his clothes began to blaze
he ran to the water bucket to put 1t out,
but the bucket was empty, and he then
began to scream. Getting no reply
from any one, he said he ran into the
yard and began to swear, thinking his
mother would come to correct him for
swearing, as she had often done, but no
to where his mother was, and after GO
ing some distance he thought Of having
left his little brother shut up in the
house. He went back after him, saying
he might be burned up also They then
started together, and in crossing the
branch he said he thought of lying
down in the water to put the fire out.
but was afraid he might die. And 1t
was afterward found that he had gone
through two gates and fastened them
both, having to climb upon the fence to
pin them. his father having often
.scolded him about leaving gates open:
The father Immediately sought medical
aid, but to avail nothing.

Cool.

Towards the close of the fight OF Inker-
mann, Lord Raglan, returning from taking
leave Of Gen. Strangways, met sergeant
carrying water for the wounded. The SER
shot came bounding over the hill and knocked
his forage cap out Of his hand. The man
picked 1t up, busted it on his knee placed it
carefully on his head and made the salute,
while. "a neat thing that, my mani" said
Lord Raglan. "Ycs my lord, returned the
sergeant, with another salute ''but miss is
as good as mile" The commander was
probably not surprised by such an exhibition
He was badly hurt at Waterloo, and says the
Prince Of Orange, who was in the hospital
Il was not conscious of the presence of Lord
Fitzroy Somerset until heard him call out,
that arm away till ] have taken off my ring 7
Neither wound nor operation had extorted a
groan from him."
