The Bridge Over Red River.

Mr.. Peter scully, of st. Louis, who
has the contraction constructing the
piers of the Vicksbnrg, Shreveport
and Pacific railway bridge, arrived
in our city yesterday morning and
put up at Cumpston's hotel. Our
reporter dropped in on him last
evening and asked an interview re-
garding the bridge, which he, in a
good natured way, informed us he
had no objection to. After he had
charged his pipe, we seated our:
selves in front of the hotel, and held
a real social conversation, in which
we learned from him that he had
been delayed some time on account
of change being made in the orig
inal plan of the bridge, for the foot
and wagon accommodation, arrang.
ed for By our city aud Bossier parish.
The plans are now complete and he
will commence the work of construct

By Capt. Charles w. Hall. author
of "The Great Bonanza .Adrift in
the Ice Fields &c. Svo, illuminat
ed sides, $3.50; cloth. 90. Lee &
Shepard, Publishers, Boston.
A book of mammoth proportions,
profnsely illustrated. So many books
have been written upon the usual
routes of European and Asiatic tray-
el that it is difficult now to excite
the interest Of young readers with
out going out of the beaten track.
The adventures related in this vol
ume are novel and picturesque, and
they follow a comparative new
course. The hero ships on Cape
Ann schooner, bound to Greenland,
is shipwrecked on the coast of Labra-
dor, reaches Iceland, then passes
through Scotland, England, France,
Holland, Russia, Asia, and afterward
crosses Siberia, sails for Alaska, and
from thence to San Francisco, from
there reaching home overland, after
many strange experiences of Sibe-
Ran, Tartar, Chinese and Indian
life. In this long journey, devious
and broken by various accidents,
the reader is introduced to new and
striking scenery, and to peoples lit.
tie known and seldom described in
modern literature. The author has
not aimed to produce sensational
effects, but rather to furnish true
pictures of actual things, and SO
supply knowledge as well as to min
lister to the pleasures of the immagi-
nation. It is book all young
readers will be pleased with, and so
instructive that parents and guard
ians viii favor its introduction
among the young folks.

The Brain During Sleep.

Some curious experiments as to the action
of the brain during sleep have lately been
made upon himself by NJ. Delaney. Work
ing on the known fact that the action of the
brain causes a rise of temperature in the
Uranium, the experimenter found that the
converse of this was true, and that he was
able, by covering his head with wadding, to
stimulate the action of the brain. Dreams
which are naturally illogical and absurd be-
came under his treatment quite rational and
intelligent. He also found that their char
acter was much modified by the position
assumed during sleep, whereby the blood
might be made to flow toward particular
parts of the body, and thus increase their
nutrition and functional activity. These
experiments have but slight value. Those
whose lives are spent in hard work, either
physical or mental, will prefer their dreams
to be as illogical and vague as possible, SO
that the poor brain may not go on working
while the body is at rest. Chambers

A Close Call for Bramley-Handing
the Minister the Wrong Notice to
Read-Equal to the Occasion.
Evansville (Ind. J Argus.


The people of a little town in
Warrick County have been hanging
right over the brink of a church
scandal, but are not aware of the
fact, nor will they be until this copy
of the Argus reaches it's readers
over there. just before the close of
the services last Sunday a good
brother walked forward to the pull
pit, handed the minister an an
nouncement, as he thought, and
asked him to read it to the congre-
cation before he dismissed them.
just before time was called on the
Doxology, the minister said:
''B1 other Bramley has handed in
the following" and in clear voice
he read the note, which ran as fol,
lows:
''MY Own PET BRAN: Are you
never coming to see me again? |
am dying to see my darling once
more and gaze into his beloved eyes,
The old mummy that calls herself
your wife will never find it out. How
can you endure her? Come, darl-
ing, to one who truly loves you.
Your own and only MARY"
The good brother had handed in
the wrong announcement. At the
close of the reading the minister
looked horror"struck, the congrega-
ton stared at Bramley with cold,
hard stares, and his wife rose up in
her seat and glared at him like a
tigress. He was equal to the occa-
sion, however, and, rising calmly and
with look of perfect resignation on
his face, he said:
brothers and sisters: It may app
pear strange to you that [ should
ask our beloved pastor to read such
a terrible thing as that from the pull
pit, but the best way to fight the
devil is to fight him boldly face to
face. The writer of that vile note is
unknown to me, but is evidently
some depraved child of sin who is
endeavoliug to besmirch my Chris
tian reputation. | shall use every
endeavor to ferret out the writer,
and, if discovered, will fearlessly
proclaim her name and hold her up
to the contempt of all good Chris
tan people.
He sat down amid murmers of ap-
probation and sympathy.

lection of him, however, is imperfect,
seeing that | was only l8 months old
at the time. It was in 1924, a few
months before the great actors death.
Talma was playing Manlias. My
father, who was an enthusiastic adj
m'rer of his talent, never missed a
performance. At that time our fans
lily were proprietors of the Palais
Royal, and there was private en>
trance to our box from the palace.
On the particular evening III question
my mother went with my father to
see the play, and she thought she
would like to take me. So l was
present at the performance, half
asleep in my nurses arms, and it
appears that at one time / looked at
the stage. It was just at that part
of the play when Manlius listens to
the reading of a letter. As the read
ing progressed his features assumed
terrible expression, and when, the
reading being over, he uttered the
celebrated gu en- dis-tu?' which used
to draw the whole of Paris to the
Coincide Franchise, at the sight of
his contracted features and blood
shot eyes I was utterly terrified,
screamed, and began to cry with all
child's unconventional vehemence.
The result of my fright was SION ap-
parent. The result of my fright was
soon apparent. The people in the
pit and stalls started to their feet,
and protested in the most unmls-
takably emphatic fashion against the
introduction of child in arms in SO
serious theatre. My father merely
smiled and said, Take that child
away and put him to bed. That is
how l saw Talma."
