Last week when q student who rooms
in one of the downtown blocks was
coming out of his room, he was stopped
by the excited tenant of the room next
to his, who wanted to know if he kept
q telegraphic instrument iff his room.
On being answered in the negative the
aforementioned tenant became still
more excited, and told long story
about hearing some one telegraphing,
apparently inside the wall. He had
noticed it several times, and, being
somewhat of an operator, had even
made out to read parts Of the message,
but could make no sense of them, as
they were evidently in cipher. Conse-
quently he was beginning to have Wis
ions of internal machines, and was
scraping together in his memory the
various Irish agitators of whom he had
expressed an unfavorable opinion, for
the purpose of having them bound over
to keep the peace; also, he was about
to order . coffin Immediately, in which
to keep the pieces when the machine
went Of. The student, when the man
had got far enough along in his story
to propose visit to the nearest life in
surance Office, remarked that there
was only one explanation for the curl
Gus phenomenon-his chum kept dog
which was in the habit Of lying in the
corner of the room near the wall, and
the wagging of his tail against the foot
board probably produced the mysteri-
Gus noise. The order for the coffin
has been cancelled and the insurance
agent has lost customer, while the
badly frightened tenant is congratula-
ting himself ON being the only telegraph
operator who has ever succeeded in
reading the wagging Of dogs tall

placed at his disposal, and every incum-

corruption fund.
But the end has been reached. The
bubble has been punctured. The sober,

Perhaps it would be paying too great
compliment to even the most enlight-
ened natives of India to suppose that
they are wholly free from superstition
that attaches credit to the influence of
the Evil eye. On some occasions, it is
not proper to look at the party adj
dressed, in case such an opportunity
should permit IN enemy to cast an evil
eye; and it is against all etiquette to
remark that person is looking well or
growing fat, since it may be supposed
that such excellent condition may ex-
cite envy, and that the observation, &C
companied by malignant glance.
would cause the object Of it to dwindle
and fade. 1t is believed that q woman

those ON whom she casts her eyes suffer
- il they were possessed by evil spirits.
In India, no less than in other coun-
tries, there has existed. and still exists,
. profound belief in the existence and
evil influence of witches. Though not
very frequent now, ct one time cases
were brought continually before the
magistrates of complaints preferred
