Alone in the Dark.

Reginald DeMugg stood alone on the
steps of the handsome mansion, the
door of which had just slammed in his
face, and in his ears still rang the last
words of the fair being whom he madly
loved. They were "Go, and never let
me see your face again. You have no
style about yourself" And as Reginald
stood there under the silent stars, he bit
terly repented the act that had left him
out in the cold in both senses of the
phrase. Through the long summer,
through the fall, as the winds waiting
with them the first breath of winter,
had kissed the leaves and left them nod
ding with thousand golden hues,
through the winter thus far, he had been
Madeline Stumy, proud in her own
tion her fathers wealth gave to her.
And had she not looked coldly on Regi-
nald, and already had their friends
coupled their names, and the preachers
who saw them meandering together
thought of probable fat marriage fees.
And now all was lost, and Reginald
might never hope to see that fair face
again, never hope to feel the soft, re-
sponsive presence Of those fairy fingers,
and as we said, bitterly did he repent,
and what had Reginald done?
He had called to take Madeline to a
party in the next block and had not
brought a hack?
And Madeline was not that kind of a
hairpin, but had to have hack if a
party was only in the next block. And
Reginald did not know this Hence the
slamming of the door, and the speech,
and the standing alone under the silent
stars.-Evansville Argus.

Browns Mistake.

Dwight Brown, living near Erie, Pa. i,
is a poor but very devout man. Mr..
Brown, being in destitute circumstances,
knelt down with his wife, and the two
prayed for help from on high. On the
following day, as Mr.. Brown was walk
ing along the highway, he found q
"wallet containing $500 in greenbacks.
just ahead Of him was John Crowell,
had dropped it, but Brown, believing
this to be an answer to the earnest sup
plications of himself aud wife, took the
money home, and there was great re-
joicing in the family, followed by full
meals for his wife and children. The
next day clothing for the half-naked
family was purchased, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Brown earnestly believed they had found
the royal road to wealth. But little
later an officer came with warrant and
arrested the head of the household on o
charge of larceny. At the trial frank
statement of the whole case was made
by the lawyer who kindly offered to de-
fend Brown. He recited the ignorance
of the prisoner, which was accompanied
with devout belief that God had an
swered his prayers in the manner de-
scribed. Some of the money had been
spent as described, but the rest had been
turned over to Crowell, and besides this,
all the household effects Of the poor
man had been put into the hands of the
officers to be sold to make up the def
cheney. The Judge, in passing sentence,
said he understood the prisoner to be q
hard-working man, and that the tempta-
ton had come to him in peculiar man.
ner. He would err, if at all, on the side
OF justice, and so he sentenced Brown
to pay fine of one dollar and to be con-
fined in Jail one day. The case is a
peculiar one, and excited good deal Of
interest.

An Angel Fish Caught.

An angel fish, said to be the first even
brought to this city, was caught with a
hook and line by some italian fishermen
twenty miles outside of Farallon Islands
in very deep water, brought into the
city and sold to al enterprising tobacco
dealer on Montgomery street, where it
was hung up in the window to excite the
wonderment of passers-by. The speci-
men is about three and half feet long,
has a head as large as a mans, beneath
which are pair of wing-like fins,
spreading out over two feet from tip to
tip, from the lower extremity. of the
wings-they are much more like wings
than fins-and the body tapers off to q
small tail. The back of the fish is a
dark gray and brownish color, slightly
mottled and studded with sharp, thorn
like protuberances. The under side of
the fish presents a most curious appear
ance, being colored and shaped from the
neck down the entire body like human
body. The thorax is rib-marked and
the abdomen is singularly man-ike, and
the resemblance to the human organiza-
ton is very remarkable. The novelty
store where it is exhibited number of
scientists.
Charles Wolcott Brooks informed the
Call reporter sent to make the fish's ac-
quaintance that the one brought in by
the Italians is a very rare specimen. It
has heretofore been scientifically classed,
but not generally known as o personal
acquaintance, SO to say, by even the
most favored few. Mr.. Brooks stated
that the squatina, speaking of it in
friendly manner, is habitue of very
deep water, where it pursues the very
pleasant pastime of feeding on founders
and soles. Unlike San Francisco bon
viUantes the squatina is never forced to
accept slice of sturgeon for sole and
pay two bits for it. Yet the sqantina ap-
pears capable of mastering even a whole
sturgeon, having a true fissure mouth
fracturing its enormous head from the
two joints where its ears should have
been set.-San Francisco Call.

TattOOing Confined Criminals.

A correspondent of the Chicago 7ri-
bune proposes that confined burglars,
highwaymen, thieves and rogues for a
first offense should be imprisoned for a
short time and tatooed, say, on the fore
arm. For the second offense of the
same kind let him undergo longer i'm
prisonment and be tattooed on the hand.
For the third offense longer or life i'm
prisonment and be tattooed on the cheek
or the exposed part Of the neck. This
would be the brand Of Gain. Recording
these tattoo-marks would facilitate the
Identification of criminals, as the body
marks cannot be erased except by surgi-
cal operation at the expense Of q perma-
nent scar. The fear OF tattooing would
act as a powerful deterrent to those
about to commit crimes, and also take
away the motive to escape from those
who had merited and received the third
penalty or open tattoo and were SEN
tenced to long periods Of imprisonment

A New Church Beneficiary.

A new scheme has broken out among
the, Eastern churches to provide for
Gods poor" Each church is buying
q farm, to which poor people are sent to
work out their salvation in fear and tur-
nip patches. This combination of re-
hgion and ruta bagas is certainly happy
one, and ought to come into general
practice. Steady work on farm cannot
but be far more preferable to the poor
OF church than good advice and fine
conversation, that Is now lavished upon
them regardless of cost. There is
always something on a farm that any
body can do, and do well, and that will
be worth good wages, If the laborer is
fairly remunerated, and church society
would be sure to do this. Then, in the
fall. when the golden harvest was gath
cred, the church members would of
course give their patronage to their own
farm aad lay in their winter supply of
potatoes, carrots, beets, onions, ETC.,
from their own vines and figtrees, so to
speak. The report Of the Superintend-
ent would show whittier the farm was
drifting financially, and if it needed any
fertilizing top dressing in the way of a
mortgage. Ministers whose health is
poor, from hard study and overwork,
instead Of being sent on an expensive
tour to the Holy Land, could be trans
planted from the sitting atmosphere of
the study to the beautiful air of the
balmy, breezy country, and set to rails
ing cucumbers on the farm. The exer-
else would do them good, even if they
did not raise enough cucumbers for a
mess, and what the church lost on Gu
cumbers it would more than save on
/ travelling expenses. 1t seems to us rs
though the true plan Of salvation has
been struck at last. It In not through
any of the five hundred different plans
advocated by the dve hundred different
churches, but through the modest cauli-
flower, the loviy onion and the golden
crookneck summer squash PecRs
