a TRAVELLED noe.

Few people vino travel on the London,
Brighton and South Coast Railway know
what distinguished character has free
pass On every branch Of theline, of which for
several wears he has taken daily advantage.
Ii is between two and three years ago that
a fox-terrier, big in bone and not over we'll
bred, jumped into a train that was leaving
Brighton for Horsham, and settled himself
in the guards carriage. Little notice was
taken of him as frat, but after a time he
began to be person OF great interest. No
one knew where he came from or to whom
he belonged but every day he was ready
for an early start in an early train. Some
times he went to Portsmouth, sometimes
to Horsham, sometimes only to nearer sta
tons; but the most remarkable part
of his arrangements was that he
always got to Brighton in time to
90 bv the last train to Lewes, where he
always slept, leaving again by the first
train in the morning When the friend
from whom | first heard this story land
who vouches for the truth of it) last heard
of ".Jack," he still continued this practice,
and always spent the night at Lewes sta
ton. About year and half ago, the
London, Brighton, and South Coast Com
pany began to look upon him as one OF their
regular servants, and presented him with
collar bearing this inscription, Jack
London, B., and S. Coast Railroad Com.
pany." My friend told me that on one &C.
casion, some months ago, he traced Jacks
movements on one especial day, and prob.
ably it was a good sample of many another.
He arrived from Brightonby a train reaching
Steyning at 1850 there he got out for a
minute, hut went by the same train to Hen
field. Here he left the train aud went to
public-house not far from the station,
where biscuit was given to him; and,
after a little walk, took later train to
West Grinstead, where he spent the after
noon, returning to Brighton in time for the
last train to Lewes. He was rather fond
of the Portsmouth line, but never, l be-
lieve, has come so far as London. He gen.
orally takes his place on or by the guards
wheel, and sits looking cut of the window.
1t would be very interesting to know in
what the fascination of this perpetual rail-
way travelling consists. 1t certainly shows
an immense amount of instinct and OBJ
servation, and the regularity and punctu-
atty of Jacks daily life are lesson to
many two-legged traveller. Whether he
considers himself sub. guard, or director,
or general overseer no one can tell, but
there is, it seems, an idea of duty in his
movements what he has to do tpr thinks
he has to do) he does faithfully, and SO far
is a telling example to his fellow-tr travellers
on the London, Brighton and South Coast
Railway. Il Dramatic News.

CHAPTER HI.
coMMoT1oN AT THE RENSSELAER,.

COdM0TI0N AT THE RENSSELAER,,
Archer felt more and more embittered
toward Philip Royden, as he gained new
glimpses of Christmas ingenuousness and
innate purity. Intelligent and clever as
she was, in certain directions, she had not
sufficient knowledge OF the world, or of her
own disposition, to protect herself. a
woman in feeling, she was child in sppre-
hension; and thoroughly selfish fellow
like RoydeD, who was ruled by his vanity,
might have destroyed her morally, had not
better man drawn the sting from her
trapsgression, and made her see humanity
at least g part OF tin fairer light. He
could understand hut too well how danger
GUS such girl as Christina might be to
herself and to a man of the best intentions,
though he could find no excuse nor
palliation for the conduct of Royden, who,
he believed, had deliberately planned her
seduction, and had had the baseness to
brag of it afterward at his club.
"Confound such wretch, he mentally
declared, she ought to be killed for the
public good !"
The evening of the day that Archer had
formed his covenant of friendship with
| Christina, he went to the Rensselaer, in
anything but an amiable mood. He could
not Danish Philip Royden from his mind,
and several of his intimates noticed, as he
walked up and down in the clubhouse.
that he was out of sorts. They could not
engage him in conversation he answered
questions monosyllabically, and was Alto
gether unlike himself.
Beginning to be conscious that he would
better seek solitude, he was on the point
of geing out for long stroll. Just then
Philip Royden entered with two or three

SNAKE With A SCARLET TONGUE.

Tonganoxie, KS, is afflicted with snake
story. Not many days ago colored man,
while ont looking for cows near 1ouganoxie
creek, started TO pick up what he thought
was a club, when the object suddenly fat
tened out, and the next thing the man
knew was that huge heart shaped head
was coming toward him, and scarlet
forked tongue was Tipping about close to
his face. He started at once for home, fear
lending him strength to break through
barbed wire fence on his way. When he
arrived in town and told his story the citi-
zens were at once aroused, for they believed
him. His story was to the effect that when
he saw the head coming toward him he saw
an immense snake uncoil itself, black in
appearance, and fully twenty feet long.
His story was verified day or two after
by German woman, who, while hunting
paw-paws near the spot, saw an immense
serpent with nearly ten feet of its body
hanging from a tree, with a huge
for something. She became SO badly
frightened that she ran back to her home,
and Ia broken English said she had seen
g der teufel." After this the citizens be-
came so much excited that they turned
out with revolvers, shotguns and other
weapons to search for the monster. One
man saw it near tree, and described it
as fully twenty feet long He fred at it
three times with a revolver, and thinks
ne struck it twice, as it squirmed some at
two of the shots and paid no attention to
one THE first). That there is such mon-
ster in the neighborhood of Tonganoxie
there can be no doubt, as Quincy Bald
win, who lives near the town, has heard
peculiar noises about his house of nights,
and has seen tracks across the road in the
dust near his house that measures eighteen
inches, and corresponded with the reports
of the size of the reptile. 1t is thought
that the serpent is the mate of the one
captured some years ago on Tonganoxie
creek, and whose skin was stuffed and
placed in the museum at Lawrence. 1t
seems from reports to be very much longer
than the one referred to, but snake looks
mighty big when one first sees it.

Fashion Notes.


New pokes poke downward in the
forehead
Ivory white is the fashionable shade
of white.
Puffs or ruches are more stylish than
plaitings for edging dress skirts.
Gloves are to have twelve buttons; no
more, no less.
The chief fancy at present in dress
goods is for all kinds of Scotch plaid
fabrics. Wooden goods are manufact-
ured as light as gauze, with wide stripes
divided in checks. They make beauti-
full dresses for slight figures.
The handsomest silk embroidered and
bead embroidered designs are seen in
applique bands, to be sewed on as trim
mings of the handsomest silk costumes.
They are so admirably executed that
they look as if worked on the material
They sell at high prices.
Among the newest dress goods are
Louislne grantees glacees, which, when
the suits are well made, are stylish and
novel in effect. Louisine is a fine quail
ity OF armure in two blended shades, of
which complete toilettes are to be com
posed. Louisne has body and is soft; a
suit OF 1t is most necessary for general
use.
A Paris writer in the Young Ladies
Journal says: The great rage this Spring
is fcete. Our lace-makers have been
making very thick lace, in much-raised
patterns, somewhat resembling guipure
IL is this style of lace which is called
fceIte. The outlines are worked in thick
round thread of pale buff color. 1t is
now the rival of the rich embroidery in
raised work over tulle or other materi-
ais. the patterns of which are not very
different in style. This kind of trim
ming is put on plain, and will therefore
do away good deal with the draperies
OF our costumes. Most of the new
Spring bonnets are trimmed with fcelie.
Flowers are again to be used on bon
nets. They form close lunches and gar
lands with all kinds of leaves and many
shades of flowers. Leghorn capelincs
and large directoire hats are covered
with faille or velvet ribbon bows, with a
number of handsome roses falling over
them. Feathers are also used The
newest straws are rice Ga kind of Pana-
MAJ, which is bright and silvery, and
"Bamboula," coarse straw forming
large, smooth ribs. The laces employed
by modistes are ecru and twine-colored
Spanish laces, Irvine laces, black and
white blondes. and silk laces. The shade
to predominant this year will be Irvine
color.

The Arctic Whaling Fleet.

The twenty or more whale ships which
came down from the Arctic last autumn
have mostly started again for the same
destination. These vessels will not ar
rive in the Arctic before some time in
May. They fish by the way, making
long stretches out of direct course,
sometimes getting well over toward ia
pan and sometimes nosing about the
Okhotsk Sea, for any chance TO strike n
few whales in this latitude Besides the
fleet OF sailing ships, there will be three
steamers in the Arctic this season, viz:
The Belvederc and North Star of New
Bedford, and the new steamer now on
the stocks at this port, which will be
completed inside of the nexttwo months.
The sailing ships are all old-fashioned,
short, oak built ships, which have done
good service in other business before
they were sent around TO the Arctic. -
Some OF them Were packets fifty years
ago. They are still strong. weathery
ships, and seem TO be independent of
all decay The cold weather of the
Arctic and the Saturation of oil have a
tendency 10 preserve ships Unless
these oil vessels get nipped in the ice,
they may be good for at least quarter

Satsnma Ware.

Satsuma ware is sought after in this
country with an eagerness which has no
counterpart in the one where il origin
ates and in fact Is not held in any spe-
cial estimation. In a recent lecture on
Japanese ceramics given by Prof. Il.
Morse before the Lowell! Institute, he as
serts that the japanese themselves state
that yellow clay was not discovered by
them till the beginning of the present
century and that all the large articles
sold rs ancient Satsuma are seldom over
three years of age, are manufactured in
Toxic and are rubbed with charcoal dust
TO give them an appearance OF age
Prof Morse has himself heard the agent
of an American firm dealing heavily in
the ware give an order for n quantity of
this ancient pottery, directing what de-
signs were to be used and telling the
makers to put on plenty, as his custom
ors liked them. All articles of real Sat
suma are small and unstamped, and
cups with handles are never made. The
large pieces are really Awata, the deco
ration being performed by children and
the cheapest grade Of workmcn.
