A Tableau Vivant.

Another fracas in the Jones family
| This time it is a little out of the usual
Toutine and looks rather serious:
BRIDGET, the one faithful servitor and
general factotum of the house, has just
taken her vacation of two weeks-seml-
annual-and gone to visit her sister,
Mrs. Mulkooney, and her last words on
leaving seemed almost prophetic viewed
I,v the light of subsequent'events,as the
historians say. "Yese III be in hape OF
thruble afore git back to yese; l feel
i. in nv bones,'' was her valedictory
remark. A successor was installed at
once, however, and things seemed to
jog along about as usual until one un-
lucky day, when Jones took it into his
head to remark to his wife at table as
the dining-room door closed on the new
girl:
"Quite a treasure-not a bad-iooklng
girl either, Maria!"
81 don't know what you see good
looking about her, snapped Mrs;
Jones. eff you admire red hair and
freckles and a snub-nose, why then
suppose she is to your taste"
az didn't say she was good-looklng,
did L." asked Mr.. j. with dignity, while
secretly quaking in his boots: ~ re-
marked that she was not bad looking,
by which [ meant evil, vicious. etc. l.
couldn't have told you whether her hair
was red or blue!" s4s5.
He looked so injured that Mrs. Jones
fastened to pacify him, and they parted
| the best of friends, and when he had
came home at night he had u little sur
| prise for his wife, though it wasn't just
what he had planned, as it turned out.
1t was Mrs. Us wifely habit to run
down and open the front door when she
saw him coming in the evening, so that
| he wouldn't have to sand IN the dark
vestibule and tumble for his latch-key.
Jones was in quite festive mood This
evening, owing to s'snacksn with Po-
tation after business closed, and as MS
wife held the door open he skipped IN
and gave her rousing smack that
might have been heard in the next block.
s'Kitchee-kitcheeI he said. playfully.
with one arm around her waist-''put
title hand in my overcoat pocket ana

But the screams that sounded through
the Jones mansion took all the playful
ness out of the unhappy man, and as he
asked, hollowly; ssMaria, what does this
mean?n Maria herself appeared in a
glare of light at the top of the stairs and
saw the wretched Jones and the new
girl, and, not realizing that it was all a
| dreadful mistake, tainted dead away.

weather in general, but if this domestic

Mrs. Hess, heavy-set, muscular wo-

COralS and Coral Reefs.

Prof. Joseph LIE Conte, in recent
lecture on corals, corrected a wide
spread misunderstanding respecting
corals and coral reefs. The popular
idea is, says NJ. LIE Conte, that these
animals are little insects; that they
build like ants and bees do, and when
they are alarmed they disappear into
their little burrows, and these reefs are
accumulations of millions of these little
insects in generation after generation.
The fact is the coral animal is polyp,
belonging to the group of radiatia; that
it consists of limestone deposits in the
shape of hollow cylinder with top and
bottom disks, surmounted with tenta-
cles, containing stomach and envel-
oped with gelatinous organic matter.
The tentacles or arms are provided each
with mouth for the absorption of food.
The coral is coraline limestone after the
gelatinous organic envelope is decayed
and removed. The animals which build
reefs are not much larger than pin
heads.
Reef building corals will not grow at
depth of over 100 to 120 feet. There
have been reef-building corals found at
dead--drowned by being carried below
tUGII ucpbu. Ills COuuIlcS UO
coast lines and submarine banks Corals
will not grow where the temperature is
lower than sixty-eight degrees at any
time-that is, the ocean, not the air.
Therefore they are confined to the trop-
ical regions. They will not grow except
in clear salt water; hence there is al
ways break in reefs opposite the m outh
of river. Finally, they demand free
exposure to the beating of the waves.
The more violently the waves beat, the
more rapidly the corals grow, because
the agitation gives them ventilation.
Corals will grow in the face of waves
whose beatings would gradually wear
away a wall of granite. The four kinds
of coral reefs found in the Pacific ocean
are fringe reefs, barrier REEFS, circular
reefs, inclosing lagoons in the ocean,
and small lagoonless coral Stands

THE Supreme Court of Tennessee has
decided the funding act of 1881 to be uncon-
stitutionaI, upon the sole ground that the
Legislature could not make valid contract
that the coupons upon the compromise
bonds should be receivable for taxes for 80
years. In all respects the act was regarded
as constitutional, and majority of the court
held that the charges OF bribery and corrup-
tion against the Legislature could not be
entertained by the judicial department.
