SOlacing Tilted Lover With Some
KeepsakeS.

Quite romance in real life was enacted a
few days ago, wherein a Dover gentleman
figured as the hero. This young man, accord
ing to the State Journal, has been paying atten-
ton to young Miss in the lower part of the
state, which soon ripened into an engagement
OF marriage. The day was SET and tine eager
groom passed the intervening time in feverish
expectancy. Finally the long-looked for
moment arrived, he donned his best bib-and-
tucker and hied himself to the residence of his
fair inamorata. His face was wreathed In smiles
as he boldly entered the gate and raped at the
door which separated him from ali that was
dear to him in life. The door was opened: he
entered, inquired for his love, and what was his
establishment to find that she had been mar
ried six weeks before to another man. Filled
with rage he rushed to the new home O; the
faithless maiden and demanded an EXPLANATION
After season the young lady succeeded In
quietfng his passion, and In order to ease him
down as gently as possible, permitted him to
escort her to church that evening, which he did.
Feeling that she had ruthlessly DESTROYED his
peace and happiness, she puzzled her brain to
find some way by which she could make repara-
ton, and finally took of her ring and gave him
as q souvenir Of the episode. The father. wish
ing to do his part also. presented the young
man with pair Of little goslins, but which
were too small to be removed from the mother

sadly wended his way back 20 Dover, swearing

The great Importance Of the coming transit
of the 9th of December, in the estimate of men
OF science, may be seen IN the preparation now
being made for it's observation. Forty expedi-
tionsto witness it are already projected, and the
number will be largely increased by those of the
United States. Italy and Austria, which have
not yet been announced. The French govern
ment will send eight expeditions to the following
points: four In north latitude and four in south
latitude In the north the stations chosen are
the coast OF Florida, under the charge of Colonel
Perrier; Cuba, under NJ. d'Abbadie; the coast of
Mexico. under NJ. Bouquet de La Grye: Martini
que, an island of the French Antilles, under NJ
Tisserand. In the south the stations chosen
are Santiago in Chilli, under NJ. Leclerc; Santa
Cruz, river Of Patagonia, under NJ Fleuriais:
Rio Negro. the northern boundary Of Patagonia
under M. Perrotin; and Port Desire or Chubutt.
also in Patagonia, under N. HIATT The men,
Ders OF all the expeditions are now preparing
for their work at the observatory in Paris.
where by means Of model Venus and q model
sun they are practising on imaginary transits in
hopes of being able to observe with scientific
accuracy the passage of the real Venus over the
real sun in December. They will start for their
the intervening time after their arrival in dill
gent preparation for the event.
The object OF this great expenditure Of time
labor, money, and brains is the hope that the
oUSeTFeTS Inlay determine, WIN an accuracy
never before attained, the earths distance from
the sun. For this is the unit Of celestial meas
urement, and as long as the doubt concerning
its accuracy exists, SO long there is doubt in the
estimate OF celestial distances. But cloudy
day will render months of unremitting labor of
no avail 1t is estimated that the weather at
half the stations will be unfavorable but great
deal may be learned from the observations made
at the other half, where the favorable conditions
prevail, according to the law Of averages. The
four southern stations of the French expeditions
are in the south temperate zone, and the 9th of
December will be near their summer sOstice,
like the 9th Of June at the north. The localities
favored with clear sky on this meridian at the
time of the transit will be specially fortunate,
for the short winter days are not hopeful in
their conditions. A transit of Venus is not q
glorious phenomenon like total solar eclipse
1t is simply the passage of round black ball
over the suns bright face. But it is visible all
over our western world, and no human eye that
now looks upward to the stars will ever again
behold its recurrence. 1t is the last chance for
trying this method Of estimating the suns dis
lance until the advent Of the year 2004.-Proui-

and easy in his theology. holding, as he still

They are four inches thick each side, and
lined with apparent traces of ham. The assay
also shows up some indications of butter of the
Queen Anne period, but not in paying quanti-
ties. They can be reduced by strong acids or
intense heat, but can not be crushed BY friction
AS food they are not nutritious, but perfectly
harmless. Professor Doremus. who has sub

not enough ham in two billion of them to en-
