ELECTRIFIED,
How the Guests OF a Philadelphia Hotel
Were Startled.
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press.
A gentleman leaning against one of the
iron pillars in Dooder's cafe on Saturday
evening was observed to pitch suddenly for.
ward nearly falling on the marble floor. He
turned very pale, and looked about him to
see whether his involuntary action bad been
noticed. 1t did not appear to have been, and
he walked back to the pillar and examined
1t critically. Then he walked around It and
looked up to the ceiling. He look at the
floor, and then to satisfy himself whether
the post had moved from Its. place and
kicked him, he pressed hard against It with
the palm Of his hand.
In, another instant the gentleman was
sprawling on the floor. He got up, and
finding himself beginning to attract atten-
tion, be walked back aud sought Mr.. Dooner.
"Is this place haunted hs asked, .'er have
you familiar spirit which knocks people
down."
Then he explained what had taken place.
Nonsense" said Mr.. Dooner; "show me
the post, and I'll hug 1t If you say So"
Mr.. Docner was shown the post and he
put his arms around 1t. But IL was not for
long. In less than two seconds Mr.. Dooner
was where, his guest bad been few minutes
before. At the same time howl of rage
was heard in the bar-room. Mr.. Dooner ran
back. A man was standing there with .
halfemptied glass Of wine In his hand.
stWhaf droo fhio -

went through me like galvanic battery.
Do you
He was interrupted by another man, who
entered suddenly, with yell and mrt.ered
imprecation.
"What's the matter here ?" be asked rath.
er angrily. 'Iput my hand on m iron post
out there" pointing to the cafe, "and | be-
lieve am paralyzed."
BY this time group Of excited men had
gathered around. ssThe place ID bewitcbed.n -

who was smiling broadly, ..rs nothing Of
the kind. These gentleman have all re-
ceived all electric shock. Make an ex.mi. |
nation, and seq II am not right"
The hotel proprietor sent for the manager
Of the Electric Power Company on Arch ST.,
above 10Th. He came, and In less than five
minutes had solved the mystery. 1t was
found that steel screw, from which de-
pended an electric light, had been pushed
too far through the lath aud plaster, and
came In contact with an iron girdcr. The
girder rests on the pillar, aud the base of the
pillar res,e on another girder beneath the
floor. The gentlemen who were Knocked
down had cnmplet~d the circuit by touch.

Some day shall be dead.
Some day this tired head,
With all the anxious thoughts it now doth
know, ..... +..r. '-. $780,.
..- Shall be laid low.
This body, pain-racked, i'll,
shalllie Mt length, and still,
Under the clover and the wind swept grass,
Nor hear you pass.
That were, indeed. strange sleep,
When even you might weep,
And come, and go-even you-unheard of me
As bird or bee.
Nay, sweetheart, nayi believe
Here is no cause to grieve.
One SO wayworn, Of trouble SO opprest,
Is glad Of rest.
Perchance, when that release
Hath wrought its spell Of peace,
oer this unquiet heart, long vext with woe.
Herts-ease may grow.
Who loves me will no, weep.
When that lie asleep,
But rather joy to think such sorrow NAV
Have end some day.

PERSONAL AND GENERAL

General Manager Gardner telegraphs that
the Minister OF Public Works on Tuesday
authorized the opening of the Mexican Ma
tional railway to public traffic, from Laredo
to Lampazos.
The annual convention Of the American
Society OF Civil Engineers will be held al
Washington, Tuesday, May 10Th, continuing
in session four days. The programme is an
interesting one, embracing a visit to the
principal objects of interest in and around
Washington, iaclu1ing trip to Mount
Vernon, special excursion on the Poto-
mac and very probably call on the Pres
ident. The annual address will be deliv-
cred by Ashbel Welsh, Eq, president of
the society. The list of papers to be read
covers a large number of subjects and can
not fail to prove both entertaining and in
structive.
The attempt to establish an uniform
standard of time, in place of the present
variety of standards, which the American
Society of Civil Engineers has undertaken
TO inaugur ate, is certainly Timely" The
traveller who makes a thorough tour of the
United States by rail is obliged to change
his watch 80 times if he keeps up with the
railway time-pieces. At Bangor, Me, it is
1888 pm. when at San Francisco it is sos
am, and all the way the changes go on,
based on purely arbitrary standards. To re-
M mber Just when one standard gives place
10 another, SO as to avoid getting left by the
train, is one of the travellers constant sources
of care and annoyance. That reform is
possible has already been demonstrated, and
it is TO be hoped that railway IN lnagers will
co operate in the movement therefor by re-
plying 10 the questions which the above
named society has sent out

M. Ambrose Thomas's new grand opera,
Franeojss de Rimiai, has been successfully
given in Paris. The Hbretto is founded on
a well-known passage in the divine comedy
OF Dante. The poet, wandering through hell,
under the guidance of the spirit Of Virgil,
meets two souls lest tightly clasped in each
others arms. He questioned them, and
learns how they had on earth loved with a
guilty love that had brought their eternal
ruin; in spite OF their torments and Temorss
love has survived and still binds them indis-
solubly together.
