4 Romantic Story.

The following story has come to the hearing of the Atlanta (Ga.) Co'astitx- tion: Many years ago there was a young fellow named Bigelow sent by his father to Yale college. The father was very rich, and the youngster lived in grand style at the university. Suddenly the old gentleman broke up and had to with draw bis son from college. The boy, however, felt the necessity of an educa- tion, and determined to have one any how. He therefore went to work and learned trade as machinist. While he was at work his old associates cut him and refused to have anything to do with him. The young ladies with whom he had been a great favorite failed to recognize him when they met him. One day when going from his work he met wealthy young lady who had been his friend. He had his tin dinner bucket over his arm, and supposed she would ext him as all the rest had done. She smiled pleasantly, addressing him as Tom" "and insisted that he should call and see her as he had always done. She
 
 as am concerned" The years rolled on. The young work-boy became i'm mensely wealthy. and is now the mayor of New Haven, with an income of S100, GOO year, and owner of q factory in | which 1.5OO men and women are en- ployed. The young girl grew to woman- hood and married. Her husband bor- rowed large sum of money from MT. Bigelow, and died before he had paid it, leaving his family with but little prop. erty MT. Bigelow sent her. with his condolence, a receipted note for her hus. bands indebtedness; and now the sor of Bigelow, the millionaire, is going te marry the daughter of the ore woman who was faithful and true to the young work boy at college.

The Vatican.

The Vatican, then, is an immense and irregular pile of buildings, erected at different times, and with little attempt at architectural unity. IL consists of countless halls and rooms, and these surround courts with colon nades and fountains. Many of them are lighted from above; but others, especially i'll the library, look out on sunny garden spaces where are close-clipped hedges, trim 1ower-beds, and orange and lemon trees laden with golden fruit. The halls given up to the statues and pictures ing to Murray-are cold and stately in their effect; and, despite Scaldi7o here and there, they chill one to the marrow of his bones in half an hour. The Etruscan and Egyptian museums be- heath are gloomy, but the library halls are warm and bright. Their walls are adorned with frescoes, their doorways and columns are of marble in all varying tints. The bookcases are of rare woods, some paneled and carved, some painted with fruit and flower designs on white or gold ground. These are all you see, the books being invisible. Rare, marble tables hold presents made the popess by kings and emperors in the last century; Sevres vases from the King of Prussia; malachite from Prince Demidoff; splendid can- oselabras from Napoleon l.. little Prince Louis's baptismal font sent by Eugenie so long ago; rare Illuminated missals whose covers are adorned with embroid- cries of gold and gem; a wonderful fald- stool from Tours, a mass of delicate carving in light brown wood, all ferns and wandering vines and bell-fowers, and lace-like canopies over ivory saints six inches high which jewel the sides i; all these are but little of the beautiful things you see. You walk through hall after hall filled with rich and rare and curious articles, and get from every window glimpses of garden green or silvery fountain. You look back from the last hall down vista so long that you cannot distinguish objects at the other end. The whole effect is of be- wildering richness and beauty. But all these museums are much alike, sup pose, to ignorant eyes. The first one seen always stays in your memory as biggest and best.-Good Company.

The Hudson River Tunnel.

The tunnel that is now being con- structed under the Hudson river be- tween Jersey City and New York was originally intended to be single one, with an internal diameter of twenty four by twenty-six feet. The plans have now been changed. the change consisting in the driving of two separate tunnels, each fifteen feet in height and sufficiently wide to allow the passage of the largest sized cars. The reason for the change is not the eimpracticability of the original plan, but the greater strength to be found in the double tunnel. and consider able saving of expense in the construc- tion thereof. Another point in favor of the double system is the heavy wall be- tween the two borings that will prove of great value in holding up the roof and superincumbent mass of water. A sheet iron casing, three. eighths of an inch in thickness, will be carried some fifteen or twenty feet in advance of the workmen, thus protecting them from any possible caving in of the roof or sides. All the brick work will be placed inside of the casing. With these changes in the plans the managers and engineers feel more confident than ever that complete success will attend their efforts to connect both sides of the Hud- son by subaqueous railway.

Hunting the Kangaroo.

An Australian correspondent of the Chicago Tribune gives this description | of kangaroo hunt: At nine o'clock in the morning ten men (including myself) | started on horseback, with four dogs, on | a chase. All were experienced in the l business except a young Englishman | and myself. We took no firearms, a large stick being the only weapon to be used. We had no difficulty in finding the animals It was disdained to avoid such fences as we found, and we jumped several of height of four to five feet,
 always approaching them on full run.
 We divided the party, half going to each
 side of partly open plain. I soon saw
 large kangaroo and two small ones
 coming toward our party. We waited
 till they were near enough to see us,
 when they made a right angle, and went
 off at an astonishing pace in jumps of fifteen to twenty feet in length, going from eight to ten feet in the air at each
 jump. We went for the big one, but he
 quickly got beyond our sight, the three
 having already distanced the dogs. The
 kangaroo dogs hunt by sight, like the
 greyhound. These three were all lost,
 we learned, as we met at the point
 agreed upon. We next surrounded
 another large tract of forest plain and
 meadow, this time dividing the dogs.
 In few moments hundred or more
 kangaroos came bounding toward the
 party with me. The dog with me
 started for them, and all the dogs and
 men were at once in pursuit. The kan
 garoos divided into several parties, each
 dog selecting one to follow and each
 man following some one of the dogs.
 My dog went for boomer-a full grown
 male kangaroo-and 1 also, in company
 with two others of the party. The
 boomer stood up, took a look at us and
 then flew. We followed him among the
 trees and branches, jumping logs and
 debris of all kinds and across plains at
 fearful rate. The horses needed no
 urging; their blood was up now. The
 dog "laid to it," but made no sound.
 When he would get near the kangaroo
 the animal would make jump at right
 angles and change his course, while the
 dog would shoot on distance before ht
 could turn. After run of this kind fol some distance the kangaroo started for , swamp. After reaching that and goinl in distance he turned his face towart us, standing up on his hind paws to height of seven feet and prepared fo 3 battle. The dog went for him and tn } fight commenced. The dog succeeded il | getting hold of his tail and was carrie, in the air some distance by repeate jumps. The dog then lost his hold an was seized and put under the water l Owing to my having the best horse n was first to come to the dogs. aid. n n was warned by shouts not to approac d the animal but disregarded them an !, showed myself good kangaroo hunter a The animal proved to be eight feet long
 The rest of the party killed two smalle 0 ones, and later in the day at anothe e chase another large one was killed. Tn Q females do not fight, but run so swift y that they ale rarely overtaken.

How to Write We'll.

An article in the American Grocer in- sists that it is possible for every one to learn to write well, unless prevented by old age or some physical defect. It gives the following directions for ac- quiring good handwriting:
 The first thing to learn is tine proper holding of the pen, and to acquire this we refer to the published directions on the subject. Next, instead of proceed ing to copy an elegant letter or copy line, give especial attention to the ele- mentary forms of letters, the strokes, pot-hooks," continuous ms" and ''us'' given in writing exercises; not the formal ''pot-hooks" of school children, though they should be mastered, so much as the more free and flowing sim pie turns of commercial penmanship. IL S person can make these properly he must afterward be able to write well, and until he is able to make them his hand will always be poor. The advan- tage of these elementary forms is that they show where the fault lies, and con-
 
 that one thing. They teach the first principles of writing, without under standing which one may try for 8 life time and never become 8 good penman.- In learning to write there are two dis tinct educations, that of the eye or mind, to an understanding of the char acteristics of good writing, and of the hand, as the servant to do exactly the minds bidding; it is a mistake to fancy that it is merely the hand W mich catches the trick of good writing. Don't try to initiate whole line at once, but go over each letter by itself with the eye. No tice the particular shape and swing of letters and parts of letters, taking, say the tail of s'y'' or "g," initiating it, noting where you fail short, and keep on trying till you are perfect. This habit of taking your work to pieces and examining and practicing on it bit by bit is what will give you progress. Ol course later on, when you feel yourself capable, you can proceed to copy whole lines and sentences. Lastly, supposing that you have considerably improved by the foregoing process, you want tc fall into some particular style that shal be good and shall be your own.
 It is an error to practice copying every piece of good writing you see, perhaps in dozen different and opposite styles There is one specimen-some one per. sons handwriting perhaps. or some par. ticular engraved writing, of which you have remarked, would like to write like that" Take that and make it youl standard. conform to it always and te that alone.

\ Time-Sayfng Invention.

There is apparently no limit to the practical application of electricity to the uses of every day life. The electric light has closeiy followed the telephone, and the latter has become an ordinary commonplace affair. Since then, ac- cording to the Scie1Iyfe American, a novel and important improvement in a special field of telephonic use has been reported from London. Our readers are familiar with the principle of MT. Edison's electromotograph or loud speaking telephone. By employing his small electric motor to turn the chalk cylinder the telephone is made auto matic. Instruments of this sort have been placed in, and a large number more are in preparation, for the London Times newspaper office; and the reporters of the paper, say in parliament, instead of reading their shorthand notes to copy ists, and transmitting the longhand
 opy to. the printer, as heretofore, now read them directly to the telephone, thus saving the time of copying and carrying the report In the printing office the compositor sits at a type-settlng ma- chine, and, as the report is delivered to him by the automatic telephone. he sets the type as one would play tune upon piano. Having no copy to decipher, his whole attention is given to the set ting of the type, and another great saw ing of time is effected. The indications are that by the use of autographic and automatic telegraphy Gin conjunction, perhaps, with stenographic type-writers) reports of public meetings will soon be almost instantly transmitted through long distances and at fraction of ex- pense which such work now involves. By the same process, drawings as we'll as writings, will be transmissible quickly and economically. Such inven- tions open Up lines of progress too far reaching for the boldest imagination to follow.

The military and naval expenditure of Europe in 1879 amounted to $500, ,00O.- GOO. Russia spent $l60. .000, 900, England $l60. 900. .00O, France $l35. 100000 and Germany $io5, ,0O0. GOO. IL is remarkable that England spends more in gunpowder and glory than either Germany or France. The total debts of Europe have risen from Sl0.626. .000, 900 in 1865 to S2O. .324, ,0OO, 900 in 1879. and the greater portion of the additional debt has been incurred owing to armaments.

Ingenious Chicken Thieves.

The Rev. o. c. Wheeler. of San Fran cisco, has delivered fiery lecture against the Chinese. He has discovered some peculiar traits in the Chinese mode of robbing hen roosts. One morning about two o'cluck-it was very dark-a policeman passing along street in the Chinese settlement heard ,as he thought, a rooster crow on the oof of a house. The place attracted his attention, and he cautiously accommodated. He soon dis covered Chinaman standing up against chimney on the top of house, and watched him. It was not long before the Chinaman, peering into the dark in various directions, and finding, as he supposed, the "coast clear" stepped slightly away from the chimney, slap ped his arms against his nides, and crowed SO very like cock that the head of flock in neighboring roost an swered with real crow. Then another, further of, hearing him, responded, and others, more distant still, took up the refrain, until every gallant chanticleer for miles around had given oral testi- mony to the elegance of his manners. The thieves knew the neighborhood, even the premises, where the chickens were kept, but did not know the par ticular spot where the owner had se- creted him. The programme was this
 A dozen or two of them, more or less
 went, each with dark lantern, sta. tioned in different portions of the town
 in neighborhoods where chickens arr known to be kept. The cocks that "fel
