in American reports of them, there ap-
pears to be touch of American hui

gigantic meteorite which fell, like the
image of the great goddess Diana,
down from heaven, and buried a house
in Texas. Who has forgotten the Bra
lillian monster, which was many faith
oms long, and lived beneath the upper
crust of the earth? Even the progeny
of this animal when they walked about
created earthquakes which Byron
would have called young" The cy-
clones which have ragged lately in Ala
bama, Ohio, and Indiana recall these
prodigies of nature, the great earth
shaking beast, and the gigantic me-

must nature have presented when
whole forests were uprooted, literally
'at one blow" of the wild west wind.
In Tennessee a train was blown clean

The Biggest Speech on Record.

They tell good story of ED" "
Sowles. Years ago he obtained leav-
to write out his ideas" for direc-
tors meeting of the Vermont and Cane
ada railroad. He appeared at Boston,
followed by II darky carrying an old
fashioned carpet bag containing an
enormous roll of manuscript, from
which Sowles read "ideas" through
morning and an afternoon session,
until he wilted the collars of the entire
party. When they broke up, Lawyer
Hard, of Burlington, asked Sowles
which way he was going home, and
Sowles replied by White River juno
tion.
"Oh, yes, of course, you could not
go by Fitchburg, anyhow"
"Why not, prayp' asked Sowles.
because you couldn't get that
speech of yours through the tunnel. !"

A Celestial Tramp.

A Chinaman in New York is never
out at the elbows. He usually wears
n staid and contcnted expression of
countenance, as though he were on the
best of terms with the current coin of
the country. But last evening one
was observed walking along Sixth
avenue, in the midst of the snow and
rain, who had lost all sickness except
that which the storm had given him by
saturating his clothing. He was
ragged and absolutely forlorn. He
was walking on the uppers of his SAN
dals, and covered his hands carefully
in the tattcred folds of his sleeves.
But it was not for long. A liquor
store confronted him and on his right
flank there was row of kegs. He
eyed them wistfully for moment and
then glided across the slippery pave
ment toward them. He drew one of
hi' hands from his sleeves, and with it
came an old tomato-can. He tipped
keg in the most approved fashion,
received the dregs in his can, and stole
into the area of a house in an adjoining
street and regaled himself in peace.
He was a Chinese tramp, but he had
fallen deep into the wicked ways of his
American brother York Times.
