Baden. Baden is the most famous
watering place in Europe. Every.
thing that money and taste can &C.
compl'sh to improve its many natural
advantages has been done, and the
result is an eminent success. During
the season some of the finest bands
in Europe daily perform in the
grounds set apart for this purpose,
where throngs ofpeople from all parts
Of the world are seen promenading.
In addition there are beautiful drives,
delightful baths, mineral springs and
public halls OF entertainment. For.
merly this place was celebrated for
gambling which was participated in
oy persons Of all classes. The mag.

and hopes blasted by the ventures
here made, and say whether the world
is not improved The Emperor of
Germany has abolished gambling
throughout the empire.

HOW ACCIDENTS sRUN IN

Accidents, like murders, suicide and
crimes of all sorts, run in streaks. The
phenomenon Is as easily demonstrated
by experience as il ID apparently mn
possible of explanation, except on the
philosophers theory that there is in all
things appertaining to life q wave-like
motion, like the regular swinging of the
pendulum of clock, which in itself is
one of the unfsthomable mysteries Of
existenees dimly discovered but beyond
the firm grasp of the human intellect.
In the case of suicide and violent
crimes the unconscious imitatiyeness of
diseased minds has been held to furnish
an explanation, but it can be applied TO
accidents as little as TO fires, which ex-
hibit the same gregarious tendency.
It never rains but .it poufs, ? is the
