Army Adventures.
from the N. Y. Times.1


Capt. .Ewart's adventurous reconnois-
sance from Fort Meks, at Alexandria, in
the course of which he rode ten miles
through the darkness of night accompan-
led only by native interpreter, over q
district where large bodies of hostile
troops were said to be in motion, recalls
a similar, but even more daring, exploit
which attracted considerable notice dur
the Crimean war. After the victory
of Alma Lord Raglan altered his plan of
action to one which required the imme-
date establishment of the British feet in
Balaklava harbor. It was of vital i'm
portance to communicate at once with
Admiral Dundas, which could only be
done either by long and hazardous
circuit through stormy sea, or by
sending messenger across completely
unknown country swsrming with savage
Cossacks, with the risk of plunging at
any moment into the midst of the whole
Russian army. Lieut.. Maxse volun-
teered to perform the latter service, the
desperate nature of which was sufficient
" shown by the fact that Lord Raglan
burst not imtrust him with any written
dispatch, but merely gave him verbal
message to the admiral. Starting at
night, and steering himself by the stars
across WIDE track of rugged and quite
unknown country, with the chance of
being speared or taken prisoner at any
moment, the brave lieutenant reached
his goal in safety and the projected
movement was successfully accom-
plished.

The PIoddinq Millions.

A New York Sun reporter has been
Investigating the footsteps of the many
millions who walk the streets of New
York. "Investigate" is a good word
for it, too, because in the original Latin
it means to look after the tracks or foot
prints of anybody or anything. Nearly
all the steps Of public buildings are
worn hollow, and the wear upon the
steps o. the elevated railroad stations is
so great that combination of iron and
India rubber, to prevent wear and slip.
periness, has been devised. The curb
stones where people wait for vehicles
are followed out. A deep furrow is worn
upon the steps Of buildings, like those in
front OF A: I: Stewards, running the
whole length OF the building, where peo-
pie have left the sidewalk and walked
along on the step. The renewal of stone
steps, curbs and stairways in large city
is not infrequent.

Timely WARNING,

For the benefit of cigarette smokers
we shall state that physician call atten-
ton to the fact that if tobacco smoke be
instantly elected from the mouth and
throat before descending into the chestand
made pass through cambria handker-
chief drawn tightly across the open lips,
apermanent deep yellow stain correspond
ing in size and shape to the opening be-
tween the lips, and having numerous
spots of darker hue pervading it, will be
left on the handkerchief; but that the
prolonged puff from the chest after in
halation from cigarette fails, under
similar circumstances, to produce any
but scarcely perceptible and speedily
evanescent mark. What in the latter
case becomes of the substance which
stains? This physician thinks it re-
mains in the lungs, and he therefore con-
dennis the common manner of smoking
cigarettes as dangerous.

They Are Strangers Now.

A Middleton young lady never tires of
relating an amusing occurrence of the
sleighing season last winter. She was
enjoying a ride in company with two
Hartford gentlemen, and she was driv-
irg. One of the gentlemen slyly inserted
hand in her muf and lovingly pressed
her disengaged hand. She blushed and
withdrew it just as the gentleman on the
other side slipped his hand in her muff.
She knew by the action of her adorers
that the hand pressures were frequent
and loving within the the silk lining of
the muff, for first one face then the other
would bob forward and catch look at
the sweet face and eyes which prompted,
