Novel Photography.

On Tuesday night at the Royal
Academy, London, in the presence of
Sir Frederick Leighton and most of the
.academicians and associates, many stu
dents and guests, Mr.. Muybridge, of
Palo Alto, California, exhibited series
of Illuminated photographs illustrating
the attitudes of men and animals in mo-
ton. The photographs show that the
movements which we call the gallop,
the trot, etc, consist of large number
of movements, no one of which is pre-
cisely the gallop or the trot as it is repre-
sented by painters or to ourselves. Mr..
Muybridge thinks the conventional
gallop" of art is wrong, and that it does
not even represent rightly the impression
made upon the retina of the eye. How
ever that may be, the photographs re-
veal entirely new movements, some of a
most surprising character, and which
could not have been imagined by per-
son who had previously seen nothing of
the kind, for, of course, these photo
graphs are not the first of the kind, al
though they are the most perfect. In
particular they clear up aquestion which
has been debated ever since the time of
Xenophon with regard to the position a
horse assumes in trotting. The photo
graphs of birds show the wings sonte-
times quite below the body which it pro-
pels--a position not depicted at all in
European art, although it may be seen
in the pictorial representation of the
japanese and of ancient Egypt. After
the lecturer had, so to speak, dissected
the movements of the horse, the stag,
the hound and the human athlete, by
showing a series of photographs taken
instantaneously at very short intervals,
he reclothed these figures with life by a
rapid revolution of an instrument like
the zoetrope, and SO threw on the screen
the photographs of the animals actually
in motion-leaping, running, etc; but
by making the speed somewhat less than
in real life, enabled the spectators to
study the movements more accurately
than they can without such assistance.
At the conclusion Mr.. Muybridge
thanked the Academy for the honor
which it was about to confer on him. =

Ancient Engiishmen.

The earliest race of men who peopled
England. says Grant Allen in KnoWtedge'
were the black fellows of the paleolithlc
or older stone age. They were low
proved, fierce-jawed, COUGHING Great
ures, inferior even to the existing Aus
tralians. and were all swept away in the
last glacial epoch. Long after the gla-
ciers of the ice age had cleared of the
face of the country, second race occu-
pied Britain, some of whose descendants
almost undoubtedly exist there at the
present day. These were the neolithc,
or stone age men, who have been identified
with great probability, as branch OF the
same isolated Basque or Eustrarian race
which now lives ameng the valleys OF
the western Pyrenees and the Asturias
mountains. Our knowledge of them IS
mainly derived from their tombs or bar
rows-great heaps of earth which they
piled above the bodies of their dead
chieftains. From these have been taken
their skeletons, their weapons, their do
nestle utensils and their ornaments.
In stature, the neolithic men were
short and thick-set, not often exceeding
five feet four inches. In complexion
they were probably white, but swarthy'
like the darkest Italians and Spaniards,
or even the Moors. Their skulls were
very long and narrow; and they form
the best distinguishing mark of the race
as well as the best test of its survival at
the present day. The neoliths were I'M
acquainted with the use of metal, but
they employed weapons and implements
of stone, not rudely Clipped like those
of the older stone age, but carefully
ground and polished. They made pot
terry, too, and wove cloth; they domesti-
Gated pigs and cattle, and they cultivated
coarse cereals in the little plots which
they cleared out of the forest with their
stone hatchetS or tomahawks. In gen
eral culture they were about at the same
level as the more advanced Polynesian
tribes, when they first came into contact
with European civilization. The bar
rows which they raised over their dead
chieftains were long and rather narrow,
not round, like those of the latter Celtic
conquerers. They appear to have lived
for the most part in little stockade villa
ges, each occupying small clearing in
the river valleys, and ruled over by a
single chief, and the barrows usually
cap the summit of the boundary hills
which overlook the little dales. Inside
them are long-chambered galleries of
large, rough-hewn stones, and when
these primitive erections are laid bare by
the decay or removal of the barrow,
they form the so-called g Druidical mon
uments' of old-fashioned antiquaries, a
few of which are Celtic, but the greater
part Eustrarian. I-- .L.LL -----L .h-

Charley and the Bull.
A TRUE STORY.

A TRUE STORY.
Once there was little boy named
Charley, who was not afraid of any,
thing. He would pick up frogs or bugs,
or walk up to dog or goat and pat him
just as if he was an old friend. But he
was a good boy. and never hurt any
creature. He drove the cows home
every evening. Charley loved the cows
that gave him such good milk. and he
used to talk to them as he drove them
along.
One day Charley thought he would
cut across lot that was fenced in. He
had only walked little way when he
saw big bull trotting towards him. Do
you think Charley was frightened2 Not
a bit. He knew it was of no use to run.
As quick as he could, he pulled up u
handful of grass and held it out to the
bull
The bull was feeling very ugly, for
the men who put him in the field had
beaten him. and choked him with the
rope around his neck. But when he
saw Charley standing there so bravely,
he knew the little boy did not want to
hurt him. He stopped, looked at Char
ICY Il iliolncuJ, anu tleu quietly dte the
grass from his hand.
Charley pulled some more grass and
gave him, and then some more, and
more, until the bull had enough. Char
ley walked away, with the bull follow
ing him to the fence.
! The next evening he pulled some tur-
nips and carried them to the bull. He
liked them very much. Every day after
that Charley carried something good to
his big friend.
But one day Charley's father passed
by the field. He was terribly fright
ened to see his little boy on the bulls
back, riding around the lot He shout
ed to him, but turned pale when he saw
Charley take hold of the horns and let
himself down over the bull head He
expected to see the animal toss the lit
tie fellow in the air; but he only rubbed
his black nose against Charley and let
him run to his papa.
The next day the bull was taken
away, for Charley's papa did not want
him to have such dangerous friend

geological Metropolis Company Uim-
ited.)o .s.s

1.-The Geological Metropolis Company
Uimited)" is the title of an association
the object of which is to provide a
''burial-place for pet animals, dogs,
pussy-cats and little birds. From the
office of the new company, No. q Hen
rietta Street, Cavendish Square, there
came to us the other day circular from
which the following is an extract:
awe are anxious to meet and provide
for want which, in this great metropo-
lis of 100000 souls, has been pressed
upon us by many people. We propose
to establish battle-ground within few
miles Of London, where pet animals,
faithful dogs, cats and birds can be
placed after death; and. if wished for,
tribute to their memory erected by those
who love them. Having heard of your
kindly feelings to the animal world, we
ask you to permit us to place your name
among our patrons. There Is no La
bility, but any assistance will be CRATE
fully received
The circular also proposes to establish
a home for aged and infrm animals.
which would also serve as depository
for pets when their owners are abroad.
The honorable Secretaries of the Zoo
logical Metropolis Company .Qimited)
are Dr. j. Harvey and Mr.. r. Howard
Hutton.
The idea seems grotesque at first, but
after all, in spite of its somewhat high
sounding title, the new Metropolis Com
pany undoubtedly seeks to supply an
existing want, Those who live in the
country have no idea of the difficulty of
disposing of the bodies of dead pets in this
great stony wilderness of London. There
is no receptacle for them but the dust
bin, and a person need not be excessively
sensitive to shrink from summanly CON
signing the remains of an animal that
may have been almost a livelong COM
panion to the clutch of the scavenger.
Every one has read Byron's inscription
to the memory of his dog; but, if Byron
had lived as the majority of Londoners
live, he would have had to see the re-
mains of his friend carried off in the
dung-cart along with all the garbage of
the streets. On the whole, therefore, a
pussy-eats' cemetery is not quite soysu-
pertluous an adjunct of London life as
some may be disposed to imagine, Pal

POOLING GRANDPA.

Little Charlie, bue-eyed boy,
In the morning wakes with Joy,
Thinking: Now I'll dress me quick,
And on my Grandpa play trick"
Down the stairs he goes, at last
To his Grandpa runs 50 fast.
" Hurry, Grandpa. dor he cries,
. With scared look in his eyes;
" There's f1rel OH dear me!
Our house will burn! Come quick {" cries he.
Poor old Grandpa, scared to DEATH
Follows Clarke, out of breath;
Toward the kitchen fast they run.
Charlie, brimful of his fun
(Means no disrespect, you see,
Such little boy is he)
Laughs and gayly cries: Halo!
. IL only 1n-the stove-you know"
= Why, bless my stars !" thinks Grandpa Then
" April LIST has come again.
The April day is bright and fair,
The sunbeams frolic everywhere;
And by-and-by says Grandpa "Who
would like to take driver Would YOU
My Charlie boyY' All. Charities ewes
Grow brighter than the sunny skies
ON, Off he runs, Il happy boy,
ride with Grandpa to enjoy
Comes back all nicely dressed, at last,
His heart with pleasure beating fast
But Grandpa is not going to ride.
Poor Charles blue eyes open wide
WIN disappointment. "Grandpa, Won
Said you would gov' THAT'S hardly true,
My boy" says Grandpa; for, you know,
asked if you would like to go.
You mustn't mind if April jokes
Are sometimes played by elder folks
As we'll as little boys and we
Must April-Fools together be-"

American Nerves.


Men prematurely bald, old, 'unabe
to carry their liquor" and anxious be-
You'd their face years, are getting con-
spicuously common in America. The
slow sententious Yankee of the stage is
becoming rare in the cities, and the
cool individual who offers the suspicious
stranger cigar-light stuck in the muz-
zle Of revolver is happily confined to
Deadwood Greek or Gouge Eye Gulch.
The women are more lovely than ever;
their faces are the faces of angels CHS
eled in marble; but the pallor is I'M
healthy, and the lovelness of the Amer
lean girl is, to a great extent, incipient
disease. 1t is, like their beauty, part of
that nervousness which is affecting their
race. Their minds are untroubled by
the cares of housekeeping, for most of
them live in hotels or in boarding
houses. In Europe they contract daz-
zling marriages. But they soon fade;
and while the English matron, and even
her sister of Canada, who leads much
the same kind of life, is still in her
prime, the once beautiful Americoine
is often a lean hysterical haunter of
health resorts. The future is not
pleasant prospect. AS men of leisure
depart from the busy multitude, it is
difficult to see what they are to do with
| their money. There is limit to the
number of greenbacks which people can
spend on house. and even
a modest fortune is cumbersome
to carry about in diamonds
and watch-chains. They can, of course,
always 90 to Paris; but Tuileries Amer
lean, us this hybrid Gaul used to be
called in Napoleonic days, ceases to be
an American, while if he stays at home,
it is hard to see how the rich average
republican is to spend his money in any
other way than that which has produced,
and is increasing, the nervousness of his
race. Competitive examinations, which
will, in time, add their worry to the end
less voting and electing of the present
time, are calculated to intensity the
trouble. But for long the evil will not
be much noticed. The country will be
fertilized by continuous stream of
fresh-faced, simple-lived emigrants from
FUSED up Europe" These will mingle
with the humber natives, and, since the
truc-born Yankee of New England and
the ''fust family Americans of tie
South are notorious for the fewness of
their children, will keep up the popula-
ton of the United States. Meantime,
the learned folks. without the fear of
patriotic papers before their eyes, will
AFFIRM that the European is not natural
lied in the New World. At best he is
nervous edition of the gallant from
whence he sprang, and were it not for
the new blood that is ever recruiting his
jaded life, would dwindle away and be-
come Standardization World.

Sayings Imputed to Tallyrand.

Unbounded modesty is nothing more
Than unavowed vanity the two humble
ooelsance is sometimes a disguised i'm
kertlnence. The reputation of man is
IKE his shadow, gigantic when it pre-
cedes him, and pigmy in its proportions
When 1T follows. More evil truths are
discovered by the corruption of the heart
IMAM by the penetration of the mind.
ihe rich man despises those who flatter
him too much, and hates those who do
not flatter him at all. The imagination
OF men is often the refuge of their
prejudices. That sovereign has a little
mind who seeks to go down to posterity
ioy means of great public buildings. 1t
Is to contide to masons and bricklayers
the task of writing history. The love of
glory can only create hero; the con-
Tempt OF it creates a great man. The
errors OF great men and the good deeds
OF reprobates should not be reckoned in
our estimates of their respective charac-
ters. Theologians resemble dogs, which
gnaw large bones for the sake of very
little meat. Both erudition and agricul-
ture ought to be encouraged by govern
ment; wit and manufactures will come
OF themselves. Too much sensibility
creates unhappiness; too much insensi-
plllty creates crime. What have been
.aught have forgotten; what know, l
nave guessed. Certain acts can be rem
dered legal, but can never be made legit-
mate. Life to a young man is like a
new acquaintance, of whom he grows
dlsgusted as he advances in years. In
love we grow acquainted because we are
already attached; in friendship we must
know each other before we love. A gen
erous man will place the benefits he con-
rters beneath his feet, those he receives
nearest his heart. A narrow minded
man can never possess real and true
generosity; he can never 90 beyond mere
benevolence. If you wish to appear
agreeable in society you must consent to
be taught many things which You know
aresdy. There are many vices which
do not deprive us of friends; there are
many virtues which prevent our having
any. | remember having been told in
my youth that the love of glory was a
virtue. Strange must be that virtue
which requires the aid of every vice.
There are two things to which we never
grow accustomed-th ravages of time
and the injustice of our fellow-men. We
must learn to submit with grace to COM
NIT the follies which depend upon char
aeter. To succeed in the world it is
much more necessary to possess the pen
etration to discover who is fool than to
discover who is clever man.-London

A Western Mine.

A Committee of stockholders who
waited upon the Superintendent of a
California mine to ask why in blazes the
said mine hadn't panned out anything
but assessments were graciously received,
invited to be seated, and the official ex-
planned: 'i
I Gentleman, you are all aware of the
fact that we had scarcely begun work
when the mouth of our mine was blocked
by a land slide. That put us back a
MONTH
They nodded their remembrance.
''Then we had just got in shape to
take out 1000 tons of ore, worth 81, 900
per ton, when the mine caved in. You
recall it?n iia 10

( "Once more we bent ourselves to the
burden of reaping $500 for every $40
invested, when the mine was flooded
by subterranean river..'
That was true also. .1.
Then we had just got the water out
when we discovered that our mine was
located on another mans claim. We
had him shot to prevent trouble, and
once more we were about to declare II
dividentof 200 per cent when the dead
mans heirs put in an appearance.
There were three of them. We chased
one over the range, had another one
hung by the Vigilance Committee, and
/ am happy to inform you that have
four men out after the other and am
every hour expecting to hear that he
has tumbled off cliff. Gentleman,
there is hope ahead-golden hope:
Please come up and drink with me; after
which there will be another assessment
of ten per cent? Val Street Ne,CS.

Death of the First American Humorist.

William Tappan Thompson, whose
death was reported recently, can no
doubt be claimed as the first of the dis
tinctive American Humolists. He
was born in Ohio in 1912. He left the
West in his eleventh year and obtained
employment in the Office of 4 Philadel-
phia newspaper. In 1886 he established
the first literary weekly newspaper the
Mirror published in Georgia. Soon
afterwards he married the daughter of a
prominent Augustus merchant, to whose
sympathy and interest was due much of
the work that made the success of his
humorous book: Major Jones' Court
ship" Afterwards he was editor, of the
Miscellany, of Madison, Ga, and later
still of the Western Continent, of Balti-
more, and founded the NeaOs, in Savan-
nah. Among his other books, written
at intervals between his active news
paper work, were ''The Chronicles of
Pineville' and "Major Jones' Travels"
and he also wrote farce which John Z.
Owens produced with success, entitled
1.-The Vicar of Wakefield.
