A SLEEPING BEAUTY.

Some twenty-three miles distant from
Knightstown, Ind, in German settle
ment, there is beautiful young woman,
some 81 years of age, daughter of Casper
Schmidt, who is to all appearance quite
dead, having been in that state for nearly
twelve months past. She awakens, how
ever, every twenty-four hours, precisely
at ten o'clock at night, and will converse
with the family and others for about
twenty minutes, when she will again
relapse into the comatose state and re-
main so until ten o'clock the following
night, at which hour she revives to the
minute, throwing out her arms and hold
ing her hands together and raising her
self upon her shoulders until the spec
tators imagine that her bones are crack
ing. She remains in that laborious state
for the space of ten minutes. when she
comes to perfect possession of her fac.
ulties. She eats and drinks little or moth
ing at all. She never could be persuaded
to attempt to eat any food but three times
during thirty-two days, and then put thu
three together she did not eat any mon
than child a year old would take. AfteI
conversing few minutes this remarkable
young lady will suddenly clasp her hand
together, throw her arms into the sam'
manner as when awakening, and return
into the same somnolent state a. befor
until ten o'clock the next night. st

A WHISTLING BUOY.

A new buoy has been invented by NJ.
Perrin, of Havre, which includes the
novel feature Of announcing its position
by means Of whistling, and hence is
known as the automatic whistling buoy.
In shape the body is similar to the ordi-
nary conical buoy, except that about three
feet from the extreme top it is made fiat.
On this are fastened two small tubes,
through which the air goes into the inte-
rior, and between these tremendous
whistle is fixed. Around the whole is a
hand-rail, and two steps are placed, so
that the summit may be reached from q
boat for painting, repairing and other
purposes. Besides, there is manhole.
From the bottom of the cone large iron
tube, about 80 feet long and between s
and feet in circumference, is attached.
When in use, more especially in heavy
sea, the wind, on going down the small
tubes in the top, is Immediately forced
out through the whistle by the perpetual
bobbing up and down of the buoy. The
noise, it is expected. will be so great that
it will be heard for miles off from the
place where it is moored, thus giving am
pie notice of the dangers that surround it.
Another device for making buoys con-
spicuous at night is by painting them
with luminous paint. This paint is pre-
pared by mixing with the ordinary ma
terials sulphate Of lime or other phos.
phorescent material. On exposing the
painted surface to daylight, the light Of
burning magnesium or Of the electric arc,
the light waves seem to set the mole
cules of the salt into a vibration which
lasts for several hours. The result il
that on taking the painted surface into a
dark place pale violet light is emitted
1t is claimed that buoys painted in thu
way would be visible at night, but the
idea hardly seems practicable. Lighting
such buoys by compressed gas has, how
ever, been tried with considerable success
on the English coast.-N. Y. Sunday

CAUGHT By FRoG.-A Thomaston
man was crossing the railroad track in
that town, the other day, when his foot
became fastened in ''frog." Every
effort to release himself was unayailing,
and to add to the unpleasantness of the
situation he knew it to be near time for
the train. In vain he struggled-the
foot stuck fast. The cold drops Of sweat
stood out on his forehead in profusion,
and his soul turned sick with fear, as far
away he heard the ominous whistle Of the
fast approaching engine. He shrieked
aloud for help, and tore at the death trap
with fearful frenzy. Nearer and nearer
rushed the awful mass, the ground trem-
bling and quaking beneath its weight.
On-on it came, while the sickening fear
of death made the mans heart stand still.
Nearer-nearer came the moving messen-
ger Of death. and with a diabolical shrek
went past. And then the Thomaston
man thought what fool he was not to
not to remember that he was on side
track that hadn't been used for six years.
He pulled his foot out of the boot, re.
moved that article from its position put il
on the end of club, and kicked himself
all the way home.-Rockland Courier.

In HIS DorAGE.-The other day the
police at the Union depot, New York,
noticed feeble looking old man wander
ing out to kill time until his train should
depart, and as ne several times displayed
quite roll of bills he was cautioned to
look out for pickpockets and confidence
men. "Wouldn't anybody rob an old
man like me, would they" he innocently
asked. The warning was repeated, but
he logged around as before, and after a
time was seen in consultation with two
strangers, who had walked him around to
the wharf. An officer got him away
from them and angrily said: There!
You've let 'em beat you! How much did
you lend them," "Wall, they wanted
twenty dollars" he slowly replied. "And
you handed it over, of course" al give
'em a fifty dollar bill and got thirty back" !"
"Well, you'll never see that bill again.

drew down his eye. 1T was countes-

SOME LOST COUNTRIES FOUND
BY COINS.

In citing the historical information de-
rivable from coins, the geographical facts
we acquire from them are Of equal i'm
portance. A case was stated sometime
ago in the newspapers, how an island Of
the Egean, which had been lost, was
discovered by means of coin (the piece
not bigger than half-dime), and how
recent soundings proved the existence of
this isle. There was lost city which
owes its place to coin. For over q
thousand years no one knew where Pan
dosia was. History tells us that at Pan
dosia King Pyrrhus collected those forces
with which he overran Italy, and that he
established a mint there; but no one
could put his finger on Pandosia. Eight
years ago coin came under the sharp
eyes Of numismatist. There were the
Observation-Disclosures on it, but
what was better, there was an emblem.
indicative Of well. known river, the Cra-
this. Then everything was revealed with
the same certainty as if the piece of
money had been an atlas, and Pandosia,
the mythical city, was at once given its
proper position in Brittium. Now, coin
may be valuable for artistic merit, but
when it elucidates doubtful point in
history or geography, its worth is very
much enhanced. This silver coin, which
did not weigh more than quarter Of a
dollar, because it cleared up the mystery
of Pandosia, was worth to the British
Museum $1,000, the price they paid for it.

TOTAL ABSTINENCE IN THE
WHITE HOUSE. esai

Rev. Lyman Abbott in his Washington
letter in the Christian Union, says the
ladies would generally vote for Mrs.
Hayes for a second term. 1t is safe to
say that no lady in the present genera
ton has produced more favorable in-
preston by the grace and simplicity Of
her manners in presiding at the White
House than has she. 1t is worth jour
ney to Washington to see so simple and
unconventional lady at the very head Of
the best American society. Her portraits
do her scant justice. Her face is won
derfully mobile; it constantly expresses
her own genuine enjoyment in the enjoy
ment of her guests. Her laugh is con-
tagious; and it would be as impossible
for photograph or even portrait to
picture the life that sparkles in her face
as for picture to portray the sunshine
that dances on the dimpled surface Of q
lake which ever and anon breaks out into
a quite rippled laughter.
Her social victory is complete, and has
been won after hard battle. The story
has been told before but is worth retelling
She came to Washington determined not
to offer wine to her guests; this was the
determination Of lifetime, and she would
not and could not abandon it. To give
State dinner without wine was declared
to be impossible; all Washington society
was opposed to her; ! believe it even be-
came a Cabinet question. For year
she was target for the sort of arrows
which it is so hard for any woman to
bear unAinchingly. But she bore it all;
by her paaient persistence and her tact
she carried the day and conquered Mrs.
Grundy in her own field. She never has
offered wine; Washington follows her
lead; and l doubt whether any State
capital, not excluding the capital Of
Maine, is a more thoroughly temperance
city than Washington today.
The exclusion of wines and liquors
from the Capitol dates from the days Of
Senator Wilson, but judge that public
sentiment has grown stronger, and that
the exclusion is more complete now than
ever before. As you 60 to Capitol Hill
along Pennsylvania-ave. you come to a
liquor shop with a sign extending out
over the sidewalk. On it are the words {:
''The Last Chance" On the reverse
side, seen as you come back from the
Capitol, are the words: 1.-The First
Chance" Possibly man who under.
stands the appropriate signals can find a
chance for drink at the House or SEN
ate restaurant: but nothing stronger than
lager is drank publicly.-N. Y. Sunday
