slider the most simple and yet the most perfect
instrument Of the kind ever invented.

One of the prevailing misconception.
regarding whales is that they are fishes
when, on the contrary, they are close
allied to the horse AMI COW, being mani
mails, and giving milk like them, neve!
taking water in as do fishes, and brea h
ing air just as we do. Another belief
held also by old whalers is that whale
spout water this in fact, is just as mucl
an lmpossibility as it would be for
man to fill his mouth with water an
spout a stream six inches in heigi
through his nose.
There is a special arrangement .
valves in the whale to prevent water set
ting into the nostrils. By a spccia
arrangement of blood vessels, whale
are enabled to remain under water, o
hold their breath near, if not quite, IL
hour. The breath during this tire be
comes heated, and the nostrils file
with mucous. Now, when the whale
PUSHES to the surface, this vapor rushc
out of the lostrils with great force, All,
coming in contact with cold air con
denses Immediately, and becomes watt
and falls in a fine shower-like rain {
spray. This may also be intensified b.
the mucous in the tubes, and if I'll.
whale spouts just before it reaches tn
surface, the intervening water is hurle,
aloft; but the water is never reall
forced from the lungs.

knocks w against a Sankchinni, white
lady ghost, that sat on a low branch
The reveugeful creature at once took
her by the throat, thrust her into a hole
in the tvee, and went in, taking her
shape so completely that the mother-in-
law, that universal inmate of the Hindu,
hut, was deceived. The only difference
was that, whereas the wife had been
weak and languid, the ghost was brisk
and active. ''She has turned over a
new leaf; so much the BETTER" said the
motherin-law, when the errands and
the cooking were done in next to nc
time.
But one day the old woman caught
sight Of the ghost fetching something
from the next room ghost fashion, by
stretching out long arm-for ghosts
can stretch their limbs a great way
though not as far as Rakshasi,
can. She said nothing, but tolt
her soE and they watched, and befor,

though they knew there was no fire il
the house. Looking through a chin
they saw that the wife had thrust he
foot into the oven, and that it was burn
ing like bit of wood "Shes u ghost,
they whispered as they went for til,

ghostship by screaming, and was thel
beaten with slippers till she confessed an,

What He Did Find.

A countryman from Onion creek, who
was on visit to a friend in Austin, saw
gas burning for the first time in his
life. He inquired where the gas came
from.
''It passes all around, two feet under
ground, replied his city friend.
Sometime after his return home, the
countryman wrote to his city friend:
81 have dug up the earth six feet deep
all around my place, but l haven't yet
been ableto find any gas, but got dead
oodels of worms to 90 fishing with.

A HIDEoUs CRIME.-L;zzie Wilson.
pretty little girl of fourteen, lived with
her father, VIM. H. Wilson, brick mason
from Pennsylvania, in the new city OF
Roanoke, Va. They lived in a row OF
houses on the edge CT the city. On Thurs
day evening of last week, after dark, it
being about O'Clock, Lizzie was walking
home with two younger sisters along
Rutherford street. Their father was alb
sent in Dayton, Ohio. The two younger
girls ran on ahead towards home by an
other street. Entering the house they
asked if Lizzie had come, and at that mo-
ment heard her scream in the distance.
Their mother sent friends to see what was
the matter and they found the girl lying
dead in a field a hundred feet back OF the
street. with her throat cut from ear to ear,
her head being nearly off. No person ! al
been seen near her. 1t is supposed that
she was suddenly seized by ruff ans w:,o
dragged her into the field for the purp ,se
of outrage, but fearing her screams would
bring exposure, cut her throat and left
her. The greatest excitement exists in
Roanoke, and public meetings have offered
$3.50 for the arrest of the murderer. The
young girl was a pure and virtuouS one,
and her dreadful fate should hereafter
keep girls eff the streets after nlght..z Vir-
einia is not the Virginia Of other days,
and a new and different population is now
within her borders.

Accidents on the Railroad.

Last Thursday, Ludovic Boutinon, a
Frenchman of education, land apparently a
man of refinement, having in his pocket
diploma from college in France, fell I'M
der the fast express train on the G. & O..
road at Allegheny station. and had one
of his legs SO badly crushed that it had to
be amputated by Drs. Gatewood and Rich
ter. His account Of himself was that he
was recently from France and having
spent all bis money in New York was
trying to reach his destination, New Or
leans, by getting a ide On the cars. He
fell while attempting to leap back on the
platform of the baggage coach, from.whlch
he had just gotten down on seeing the con-
ductor approaching. He was carried to
the McCurdy House.
Ga Saturday evening at Midland juno
ton, on the G. & o. road, a man named
Webb. while coupling cars, fell lengthwise
on the track under train, and car
wheel ran up on his knee Seeing his con-
dition, Capt. Wright, Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio yard, who happened to be near
signaled the engineer to move up, but the
engineer mistaklng the signal, moved
the wrong way, the truck running all the
way down upon the mans leg, and eff at
the foot. Notwithstanding this, it was
found that no bones were broken, and the
probability is that he will recover entirely.

EATEN BY PANTHERS.-A dispatch

EATEN BY PANTHERs.-A dispatch
from Huttonsville, W. Va. dated Nov. 2,
says Asbury Atwater borrowed buggy
that he might visit a sister in Braxfon
county. EARLY in the day a daughter of a
Mrs. Adams left home to visit with sew
eral miles distant. The next night a
stranger returned the horse which he had
found wandering about in the woods.
The buggy, broken to pieces, was found
in the road about twenty miles from this
place. A search discovered the dead body
of Miss Adams in the bushes, few rods
away. It has since been discovered that
it was the intention of Atwater and Miss
Adams to elope, and that they met after
leaving the house. Atwater is missing.
It is not believed to be a murder, but 1T is
thought that they were attacked by a
number of panthers which have OF late
infested the woods.
