PERSONALITIES.

Vennor, the Canadian weather guesser,
it is said, has dark, brilliant, restless
eyes, and a half martial air.
The Rev. Mr.. Green, of Raleigh, N. c.,
is the lightning baptizer, he having i'm.
mersed l40 persons in seventy minutes.
Queen Victoria Invariably trausacts her
public business between breakfast and
luncheon, and hard y once in a month does
her Majesty concern herself with what
Lord Beaconsfeld termed "afIairs" at any
other time.
A pretty story about the Princess Eu-
genie, sister of the King of Sweden: She
recently sold her diamonds to raise funds
in order to complete hospital IA which
she is interested. When visiting this hos.
pital, after its completion, a suffering in
mate wept tears OF gratitude as she stood
by his eide, and the Princess exclaimed !:
" All now see my diamonds agaiu."
Hiram II. Arnold, aged % years, is dy-
ing of want at San Francisco. He claims
to be a nephew of Pocshontas, the famous
Indian princess. PustiIg this and that to-
gether, the Cincinnati CdEimercial calcu.
lates that Arnold's mother must have been
nearly l46 years old when her son was
born, and Pocahontas did not become his
aunt until about III years after her death,
she having died Of small pox in England in
June, 1871.
The life Of Lord Spencer at the Vicsregal

the park. MountecvPe@emen patrol the
roads of the park, detectives Turk in the
bushes, and British soldiers. guard the APP
proaches. When Lord Spencer goes TO
Dublin Castle he always chooses different
path from that followed On the previous
visit. When he goes out for drive he is
accompanied by dfagooua, and the friends
who may ride with him are warned not TO
start without their revclyers.

All OLD MAID AND AN HONEST MINER.
Bow Two califcrnia Girls Created a Breeze
on Train
Va q a ! gill
Laramie Boomerang

Another one of those annoying sleeping
car mistakes occurred on the Union Pacific
the other night. In the car were two
young California girls. two kiln dried old
maids and a Montana miner. When the
berths were made up at night the two old
maids had double berth next the Montana
miner, ami on the opposite side of the aisle
were the two California girls, dyingto have
some fun. Oue of the old maids retired
moderately early, but the other one kept
fitting back and forth between her berth
and the dressing-room until everybody got
mad. Finally she went to the dressing
room with her toothbrush, and after scrub
blng her teeth pretty thoroughly sac came
back to retire. In order to avoid any error
she had pinned piece of paper on the
curtain of her berth, which piece of paper
one of the California girls had changed to
the curtain which concealed the Montana
miner.
When the old maid returned she had her
teeth in one hand and her brush in the
other. She put the brush inside the cur
tain and laid the teeth down near the old
miners head and began to slowly climb in,
softly hummipg the fragment of an old
song as well as any one could who hasn't
any voice and who has taken out her teeth
for the night.
The harmony awoke the miner, who
looked reproachfully at the venerable maid,
and said : You must go right away from
here, now, or shall scream right ont and
betray you. Please 60 away, or shall tell
your sister. l will hand your teeth back
to you, and you can steal back TO your own
bed without being detected. Even if you
have no respect for yourself, consider
my prospects, and do not come any
nearer than you are. Consider your age,
too. A woman at your age should be
making her calling and election sure.
She should be circumspect and con.
siderate. Go back quick before the con.
ductor comes and my life is clouded for.
ever. / am unarmed and defenseless
have only the memory of an upright life
and ticket to Omaha. l will give you
the ticket if you want it, but do not want
to blast that blessed memory"
Then he damned her on the nose with q
pillow and threw her teeth out on the floor
with crash. As she rode in the car dur
ing the following day with her mouth
caved in, people pointed her out to each
| other and shook their heads sadly, and said
they would not think it to look at her, and
a commercial traveller from Dubuque went
and slept the following night in the second
class car, where he felt that he would be
safe.

HUBBELL's CoNsTITUENCY.-The Phila-

extorting of voluntary subscriptions;o r po-
litical purposes from ike postoffis en-

Then the Deputy Postmaster went INTO the

The letter was opened, and foun,l TO be
a circular from Mr.. Jay Hubbells, com.
mittee, informing the black and white
tabby that the committee believed she
would esteem it both duty and pleasure
to. make to its fund contribution OF moi
less than two per cent. of her salary. II
came out that some wag in the office had
forwarded to Washington complaint that

ls divided IN the center, the end Of one
half having hollow and that OF the other a
corresponding projection, somewhat like

OF the wheel bears against guu-metal col
lara. At the center, between the tube and
the axle is gun-metal bearing in which the
axle can revoive. The wheels act IN such
manner that in running along straight both
they aud the axle turn together as in an
ordinary pair of wheels, but On passing
round curve the axle slips in its Joint, 80

An arrangement of the bichromate of
potash battery has been introduced by +.

an earthenwsre jar fitted with an overflow
spout near the mouth, and on the bottom

except at the foot, where it enters the
amalgam of zinc and mercury, passes down
the middle Of the jar. Two carbon plates
arranged parallel to each other are sus-
pended from the mouth of the cell by a
frame and connected by an electrode.
The battery of these cells is built up by
placing each one little below the one be.
fore it on a step, platform, or stair, so that
the overflow liquor of one cell may run
into the next, and thus continual circu-
lation of waste liquor may be going on
from the high reservoir to the low one.
The circulation prevents polarization OF
the plates aud produces powerful and
steady current. The electromotive force
of each cell is from l9 to volts, and its
internal resistance is mere fraction OF an
ohm

She bends her fair head so it catches the light,

But what, she is blushing her play, too, ha.
