A sleepwalker.

Miss Sadie Lord is a pretty girl, who
lives in Clinton, on the Bangor, Maine,
railway. One cold night she got out of
bed from her mothers side and went to
the next room. Her mother missed her
from her side and followed her, where
upon Sadie, in the thinnest of night
garments, made a dash out of the door
and ran almost directly in front of the
express train, which came laundering
along the track. The frightened moth
er shrieked as she ran after her, but the
girl sped on her course, and by miracle
just missed the train. On she dashed
into the darkness and barely escaped
drowning in the deep and turbid river
Kennebec. The mother had the church
bell rung, and all the men that could be
summoned in the night made search
for the missing girl. She was found far
from home, sleeping under an ox-cart
in farm-yard. During all this time
the girl was in a profound sleep and was
surprised and terrified when she came
to her senses. This phenomena of SOM
10 NCiy CullOuSs cOplc
have been known to take risks when
unconscious, that would appal them if
awake. They seem to be able to see
with their eyes shut and to know the
perils of their path with all their senses
apparently closed to the outside world.
There is very pretty and popular opera,
entitled " La Somnambula," the heroine
of which is young girl who, on the
night before her marriage, wandered
into strange gentleman's room. Her
lover thought she was unfaithful, but by
happy accident, he and his friends
saw her the following night walking
while asleep and crossing dangerous
bridge over mill stream, which no one
would dare go near in their waking
hours. Of course all ended happily.

What will be the expense for thatY"
asked the minister.
Twenty-Five per cent. of the gross
receipts for six weeks and one-thiHi of
the foreign contributions for twelve
months. 1t don't come out of your
pocket and you reap the benefit. "
What does it cost to abuse another
minister ?"

minister. "What does the heretical

''It's more than can Afford" sighed
the parson.

bnation schemes. I'll get a ominie to
go for you and you hit back. Cost you
one hundred and fifty dollars apiece.
How does that strike you? We can
effect reconciliation afterward for fifty

ministers and pick out your man. Take

there you are"
How do pay for this Y'' asked the
parson.
Twenty-Five dollars down aud the

The money was paid, and the agent
having secured enough for peddler's
outfit, solemnly swore to lead an honest
life thenceforth, abandon his evil associ-
ations and quit all schemes that in any
way savored of illegitimate enterprise.

The Worst Liar He Ever Met.

Among the inmates of county in
sane asylum in neigboring State is a
man who is often perfectly sensible, and
when accosted at such times causes visi-
tors to wonder why he is confined there.
This inmate entered into conversation
the other day with caller whose dress
proclaimed him a clergyman. Said the
madman
cit was too bad, was it not, the killing
of Grant at Chicago?"
"It was" said the minister, who fol-
lowed the accepted custom of asserting
to the statements of lunatics for peace
sake.

EYES," replied the clergyman.
"And was not Queen Victoria MUIR
dered in her palace?" To this query
from the mailman the clerical visitor
once more answered in the affirmative.
The lunatic, with "damnable iteration,'
named, one after another, dozen living
royal personages, all of whom the clergy
man was led to admit, had been put out
of the way. Finishing his catechism,
the mailman turned on the clergyman
and said, fiercely:
"Your dress shows you to be minis
ter, but you are the worst liar ever met
in my life"

even the village and the landmarks,
said that he couldn't live, and the
rascally servant robbed him and fled.
The narrator recovered, but had COM
pletely lost his mind. He was maniac
for year or more. He then drifted
through many adventures, served In
the rebellion and was wounded in front
of Richmond in 1864. He finally settled
in California, having married mean
while a Miss Williams, Of New York.
All his children are called after the
Tlchborne traditional family names
No reader can finish the account with
out the conviction that the man is
telling the truth, and 1t will not be
surprising If, as he alleges, so soon as
he shows himself to the friends of his
youth, he will be rehabilitated. The
result will be singular vindication of
the penetration and trustworthiness of
the English bench, which, in spite of
national outcry, swept aside the plausi-
BILE fabrications of Arthur Orton, whom
half of England firmly believed then
and believes to this day to be wronged
and prosecuted nobleman.

A Romance of History.

CONRAD the Emperor of Germany,
~ was remarkable for his unsparing
punishment of all who crossed his pur-
pose. A quaint but true legend recites
that certain Count Lupold, who was
one of those fearing death, fled into
remote forest and lived in hut with
his wife. 1t happened that the Emperor,
while hunting came to the spot, and
passed the night with them. This
night the counts wife became the
mother of a son, and the emperor dream
ed that the child born would be his heir.
AS the same dream re.ocurred twice, he
was greatly troubled, and the next morn
ing he commanded two of his servants
to kill the child. They took it away:
but being moved to compassion 10y its
smiles, they placed it under tree, and
brought back hares heart to the em-
peror. a certain duke, passing by soon
after, found the child, and took it home
to his wife, and adopted it as his own.
Afterward, the emperor being with this
duke, and hearing him relate, as forest
adventure, the history of this boy, who
was then present began to suspect that
the victim had escaped. Being confirmed
in the opinion, he took him into his
service as a page, and then sent him
with letter to this empress, in which
he charged her upon pain of his dis
pleasure, to have the bearer put to DEATH
The youth set out, and after seven days
came to certain priests house, who re-
ceived him with great hospitality. The
priest was struck by his comely air, and
by his travelling so far. While he slept
he looked at this letter, and discovered
the horrible fate that awaited him so
erasing the writing, he substituted these
words:
"This is the youth whom have chosen
as the husband of our daughter. charge
you to give her to him quickly"
Next morning the lad awoke refreshed,
and said.
Adieu, dear host"
The priest replied:
Remember me when you are en-
peror."
The boy only laughed, esteeming it
jest; so they parted. On arriving at
Aix-la. Chapelle he delivered his letter,
and so well did the stratagem succeed,
that when the emperor wrote soon after,
to ask if his order had been obeyed, the
empress assured him that the nuptials
had been celebrated with great celerity
as he desired. The emperor hardly be.
lieved his eyes when he read her letter.
Mounting his horse, he rode off imme-
diately and with great speed to Aix.la-
Chapelle. On his arrival the empress
presented their daughter and son-in-law.
For long time the emperor seemed lost
in astonishment and uncertain what to
do. At length nature prevailed, and he
exclaimed:
1.-THE will of heaven cannot be re-
sisted !"
Then he compelled tne two squires to
reveal what they had done and the count
to come from the Black Forest and re-
ceive back his son in peace from the
emperor, who left him as heir, and who
succeeded him as Henry II. On the
spot in the forest where the child was
born was erected afterward the monas-
terry of Hirschau.

An Old Mystery Revised.

THAT famous query which convulsed
Il England, "would you be surprised
to learn ?" quoted from the volumes of
Dr. Kenealy's cross questioning in the
famous Tichborne trial, is pertinently
revived in the appearance of new
claimant to the ancient barony of De
Ilchenbouen, Hampshire, England. The
full narrative of the new Roger is a
remarkable document, whether it be
veracious or not. The present Roger is
a well to,d do ranchero in the land of
gold, at San Diego, California, and his
statement, if it had no other merit,
possesses the substance of the finest
wrought fiction and certain indescrib-
able charm of vraisemblance, which
will go far with all but judicial
tribunal to establish the claim he makes
of being for thirty years a self disin-
herited member of the British nobility.
In the Arthur Orton testimony the
claimant, while making by the aid of
relics and mementoes of the lost heir
perfectly coherent story, every proba-
complete forgetfulness of all that related
to his youth. The real Roger Itch borne
had been born and brought up in
France, yet Arthur Orton couldn't
speak or understand word of the
language. The real Roger had enjoyed
the careful education of the Jesuists,
yet Arthur Orton could not tell whether
the Eneid was written in Latin or
Greek. Arthur Orton was gross,
ill educated, unrefned sailor. The
present claimant is the opposite of all
this. He remembers distintly his child
hood. He names the play fellows with
him at the Jesuit school. He names
and describes his tutors. He names
incidents in which persons still living
can contradict or corroborate his recol-
lections. He revives scenes betwixt his
father and mother that no one but an
intimate could have known. He assigns
the motives to his aunt, Lady Doughty,
which rendered his love for Kate
Doughty fruitless, and he unlocks the
mystery OF the famous lost package,
sent her family solicitors, which, though
the object of prolonged search, could not
be produced on the trial. He declares
that document contained foolish vow
that he had made, that if he ever wed
Kate Doughty he would rear a chapel
on the Tichborne estate worth 100000
francs. Whereas Arthur Orton declared
that the document contained confess
sion of his seduction of his cousin.
He left Europe to avoid the enmity of
his aunt, who was passionately averse
to his marriage with her daughter Kate.
That he had heard her protesting to
mutual friends that her daughter should
never marry that " French dog" The
story is coher ent and conclusive so for
as the circumstances and motives go.
Nor are the reasons of his long disap-
pearance and obscurity improbable. He
crossed the South Atlantic and through
many vicissitudes reached the heart Of
the South American continent, when
his body servant, who he believes was
sent with him for his ruin and murder,
left him stunned and mai med from the
results of fall from his horse. The
