A Glimpse at Jenny Lind.
Oorreg. PhiIadelp Die Telegraph.


And, before 1 quit the theme of song
and singers, let me mention 8 glimpse
that caught before leaving London OF
one of the celebrities of the past. On
leaving the home of Nine. Albaui |
crossed the street to look at the dwelling
of Jenny Lind. The house stands back
from the street, and garden that must
in ummer be very boquet of flowers and
yeTdure extends in tlOnt OF it. A bust
OF the great singer, life ss,' and in mar
BILE, stands in the large bay window that
fronts the garden. And beside the bust
sat an elderly lady in q white mob-cap
and white cashmere shawl, engaged in
partaking of the afternoon cup of tea
that forms so prominent q feature in
English social life She was talking to
some one in the room, and as she turned
to the window I saw again the fsce that
had last locked upon, and crowned with
roses and lighted with inspiration, on
the stage of Tripler hall, % long years
ago. Under the disfguring esp the fair
hair, now plentifully streaked with gray,
was seen rolled back in precisely the same
fashion as that which set all the girls In
America to twisting back their tresses
in those by-gOne years. In other respects
Jenny Lind has greatly changed. Few
could have recognized in the pale, worn
lineaments of the elderly lady the we'll.
nigh angelic countenance OF the greaGesi
singer of our day and generation.

A Wonderful Fountain.
sarnia fontJ Observer,

One of the most wonderful natural
phenomena ever witnessed was seen by
a large crowd of people few days ago
at the home of Mr.. Peter Taylor, who
lives lust outside of the corporation.
For some time Mr.. Taylor has had a
number of men boring for water in the
southwest corner OF his grounds. When
g depth of about enc hundred and fifty
feet had been reached Mr.. Taylor heard
a peculiar rumbling sound, apparently
issuing from the hole, and Judging that
something unusual was about to happen,
warned his men to move to safe dis
lance from the well. Scarcely had they
done so when q fountain of muddy water
shot straight up into the air with ter
rife force, carrying up the boring pipe
with it as far as the fastenings would
allow, and scattering the mud, water
and stones in all directions The sub
terranean noise appeared gradually to
increase in violence, and as they did 80
the expelling force, whatever it was,
seemed to be propOrtionally augmented
until the cone.shaped column obtained
a height of fully $50 feet. Some idea
of the mysterious subtePranean power
which supplied the motive for this eX-
hibitiOn of natural water works may be
conveyed by the fact that stones weigh
ing fully FIVE, six and even eight pounds
were shot up into the air to consider
able height, while showers of rounded
pebbles of smaller size fell like hail
stones upon a circle OF seven yards
around the hole. One large sized stone
struck q timber of derrick in its ups
ward course, and, glancing of, was
thrown several hundred yards into Mr..
William Taylor's grounds, on the oppo>
site side of he road.
The wind was blowing pretty strong
| from the south at the time, and tbs re-
suit was that the roof OF Mr.. Taylor's
| large brick hOuse-one of the largest in
toWn--and its south side was despatched
with the muddy mixture, there being
actually puddle of clay, pebbles and
water several inches deep on the roof
! Showers of the same mixture were car
ried clear over the house and for some
distance along the street north Of his lot
| After the extraordinary spectacle baC
| lasted for nearly an hour and half, thu
fountain appeared to make one las
Grand cffJrt to do better than its best
and then gradually to lose its ascending
force. The series of jerking leaps-fO
