2 Detectives Story

"Pve heard your affecting speech Jack,' the detective went on. 'and i was really prime! Only one fault Ii had-the whole thing was one of you ingenious works of artful dodging.'
 "Who are you?' now asked the amazed prisoner sharply scrutinizine the man behind him.
 Simply Edmund Darke, of Scot land Yard.
 ''Rapine started and turned red and pale by turns, and finally broke out into laugh and observed:
 Yes, Darke; I fatter myself I have "done" the crowd, Judge, detective ano al. So you admired it, eh?'
 "' Immensely was the response; and then thief and thief-taker joined in 2 quiet laugh at the humbugged assem. blaze, who had heard every word be. tween the two men, and gave vent to ::Heir ve1ation and chagrin by declaring that hanging was too good for such [ blarsted humbug.
 "Rapine, or Jack Romaine, his propel name, only laughed in the faces of hi. dupes, and good naturedly kissed hn hand to his Lordship on receiving hl sentence"

How the Bey of Tunls Lives.

The palaces of the Bey are splendid and incongruous; the Rardo, an hour from the capital, is fine sample of Oriental architecture and decoration, spoiled by Parisian upholstery and vul- gar European carpets. Dar-el-Bey, his only town residence, is magnificent and neglected; his real abode is in sep- arate building, walled, and standing in garden, near the Bardo. He goes to the Bardo once week, to sit in judg- mcnt on his subjects and receive the Ambassadors and Consuls of the Great Powers; and then there is brief stir, and the Court presents stately picture. Tt is, however, only an external brill fancy, and it cannot deceive the visitor as to the misery reigning within the Moorish Empire" Mahomed Es Sa- dock Pacha Bpy is an amiable enough Prince, by all accounts; fond of chil- dren, but childless, and very simple in his habits. He has only one wife, and though he pays her formal visit of an hours duration at her castle every day, he rarely sees her, as the hour of his visit is generally one appointed for de- votion, and on his arrival he goes to a small room in the palace to pray.
 He IS supposed to know nothing of the management of his possessions; be- fore him all is desolate ruin. Which ever of his palaces he shall die in will be dismantled and left to decay, for a Boy must not live in palace in which predecessor has died. "None of them has had himself transported into the street on death approaching, and there are more than dozen palaces in Tunis to-day which cannot be used by the Beys. A melancholy example of this absurd custom is Mahomedia, once the magnificent residence of Achmet Bey, who had it built thirty-five years ago at cost of 10,000,000 francs. This palace, with its secondary buildings and villas for ministers and dignitaries, was situated two miles out of town and when Achmet Boy died, the furniture was moved, the floors, glazed tiles, doors and windows were broken out and dragged to another palace. The heavy marble columns, statues, the curbs of the wells, etc., remained be- hind with the walls, and he who passes those imposing ruins to-day might think thousands of years had passed over them. The hand of the Arab de- stroys thus in our day in the midst of peace, as his ancestors and the Vandals did centuries ago, only in time of war. So much for Oriental culture Lion don Spectator.

Popping the Question.

The custom which reserves the right of proposing to the stronger sex is not so universal as many suppose. An Israe- litish widow had by law power of claim ing in marriage the brother of her de- ceased husband, in which case, as the privilege of the male was transferred to the female, that of the female was like wise transferred to the male. He had the power of refusing :; the refusal, how ever, was attended by some mortifying circumstances the woman whom he had thus sligLted was to come unto him in the august presence of the elders of the city, and to loose the shoe from his foot and spit in his face. A custom somewhat similar to this remains ct present among some of the Indian tribes. When the wife dies the husband is obliged to marry the sister, or in her stead the woman whom the family of the deceased wife shall choose for him.
 In the state of New Granada the right of asking is promiscuously exercised by both sexes, who, when thoy feel the passion of love, declare it without the least embarrassment; and among the Cossacks the same thing is said to be carried on still further, and the women more generally court than the men. When young lady falls in love with a man, she is not in the least ashamed to go to his fathers house and reveal her passion in the most pathetic manner, and promise submissive obedience If he will accept her for wife. Should the man pretend any excuse, she tells him she IS resolved never to go out of the house till he gives his consent; and &C., cordingly takes up her lodging there. If he obstinately refuses her, his case becomes exceedingly distressing; the church Is commonly on her side, and to turn her out would provoke all her kin dred to revenge her honor so he yields or flies.
 As the two sexes in Greece had but little intercourse with each other, and a lover was seldom favored with an oppor- tunity of telling his passion to his mis- tress, he used to deck the door of the house where his fair one lived with flow CTS and garlands; to make hbations of wine before 1t, in the manner that was practiced at the temple of Cupid. When a love affair did not prosper in the hand of Greek, he did not endeavor to be- come more engaging in his manner and person; he did not lavish fortune in presents, or become assiduous in his at- tentions, but immediately he had re course to incantatlon philters-in con- posing and dispensing of which the women of Thessaly were reckoned with the most famous. These potions were given by the women to the men, as well as by the men to the women, and were generally so violent in their operations as for some time to deprive the person who took them of sense, and not un- commonly of life.

She Wanted Comedy.

Three months ago when a new servant girl came to a Bush street family the mistress said she desired to post the girl in advance on one certain little point. She and her husband belonged to ar amateur theatrical company, and in case Jane heard any racket around the house she must not imagine that they were quarreIing. They would simply be re. dearsing their parts. The "play" be. gan on the third evening of the girls en- gagement The husband taunted his wife with extravaganza, and she said he played poker for money, and chairs were upset and foot-stools kicked around, and threats were made of going home to mother. Next morning the mistress said to the girl:
 "Did you hear us playing our parts in the 'Wronged Wife last night ?'
 "Yes'm."
 "It was simply rehearsal, you know, and you mustn't think strange of my throwing vase at my husband and call .ng him vile wretch.
 Three or four nights after that the curtain went up on play called |" The Jealous Husband" and Jane heard sobs, slghs, protestations, threats and exclama- tions. The next play was entitled "Com- .ng Home Tight" and was mostly played in the front hall. Then followed "The Depths of Despair" "Threats. of Di- vorce" and "Such a Wretch" until Jane was at last tired of having a private box and being the only audience. Tine other morning she appeared in the sit ting room with her hat on and her bun de under her arm, and said:
 "Please, ma'am, but I'm going this morning."
 What, going away?"
 "Yes'm."
 "For what reason ?"
 "Please, ma'am, but I'm tired of ragedy. I'm girl as naturally likes to ee hugging and kissing and love mak az on the stage. and when Marks, the lNyer, comes in on the what-do-you-

The war in Soudan is dragging it's slow length along. The weather is too hot for English troops to move, and the Arabs have been whipped so often that they are willing to take long rest. Both sides would be glad to treat if terms are not too costive. England has on her hands the biggest elephant in all Africa and would doubtless be glad to sell out.

History of the Pacific States.

We cannot too highly commend
 this work to our friends. We cannot too strongly urge for it the serious consideration of all good
 men; of all who have a family to rear, sons and daughters to edu- cate; of all who have any stake in the country. or care for it's wealth, progress and intelligence.
 The reasons are plain enough: First-Such work should be en- couraged. The author, MT. Hubert H. Bancroft, has per formed this labor at an immense cost of time and money. Literary work of this kind does not pay pecuniariIy. It is impossible that it should. Therefore, if the in- telligentand prosperous members Of the community withhold from it their sympathy and support, what encouragement is there for anyone ever to sacrifice pleasure and gain to the public good?
 Secondly-It is history of our own country. New historical knowledge, for the reason that history is the recorded exper- fences of mankind. By knowing what others have done, we may profit by their successes, while avoiding their mistakes. And of all histories, the history of our own country should be read and studied first, because it more nearly concerns us. Children should be educated not only to respect their country and tenderly to cherish it's institutions. And how can they know about their country if books are not placed within their reach?
 Thirdly-It will pay pecun- iarily. The well>informed, in telligent men can make more money than the careless and un- thinking. It is not necessary to talk of the benefits to society and to individuals of such a work as this; they are obvious. There- fore, we appeal, with all the strength and influence at our, command, to every respectable member of this community, and say but the works of Hubert H. Bancroft. Subscribe for them all at once, cheerfully, promptly; then read them, and speak of them to your friends, and thereby lend your support to a great and praiseworthy undertaking.

THE POET AND THE CHILDREN.
BY JOHN G. WHITTIER

BY JOHN c. WHITTIER With glory of winter sunshine
 Over his locks of gray, In the old historic mansion
 He sat on his last birthday. With his books and his pleasant pictures And his household and his kir, While sound as of myriads singing From far and near stole in. It came from his own fair city, From the prairie's boundless plain, From the Golden Gate of sunset, And the cedar woods of Maine. And Is heart grew warm within him, And his moistening eyes grew dim, For he knew that his country's children Were singing the songs of him: The lays of his life's glad morning, The psalms of his evening time, Whose echoes shall float forever On the winds of every cline. All their beautiful consolations, Sent forth like birds of cheer, Came fccking back to his windows, And sang ill the Poets ear. Grateful, but solemn and tender, The music rose and fell With joy akin to sadness
 And greeting like farewell With a senee of AWE he listened
 70 the voices sweet a-ad young; -he last of earth and the first of heaven Seemed in the songs they sung. And waiting little longer
 For the wonderful change to come, He heard the Summoning Angel Who calls Gods children homei And to him, in holier welcome, Was the mystical meaning given Of the words of the blessed Master: ''Of such is the kingdom of heaven!"

 Entrymen-Christian names of members of an unincorporated company or association making an entry should be stated in such entry. (Exparte McNeil & Allen, Assistant commissioner March g., 1SS5.)
 Minerals-No law restricting a person to one location on the same lode. Panoche Grande Rancho grant having been pronounced fraudulent by the U. s. Supreme Court, it will not be recognized by the Land Department, and if the claim should be finally reject ed by Congress, McGarrahan could not enter the tract in ques- under the act of July 23d 1866, as a purchaser in good faith on ac- count of the mineral character of the land. A protestant has no right of appeal, (New Idra Mining Company Secretary February 26, 1885
 Homesteads-Arranging, in the form of 8 square, lots found on the land, is not a sufficient act of settlement or improvement, The hearing having been ordered by the commissioner, the cost should be apportioned equally between parties, (Witter vs. Rowe, Secre- tary, March II, 1sS5)
 Private Cash Entries-On lands not subject to such entries may be invalid and voidable but they are not absolutely void, and other entries could not be allowed for such lands while so appropriated, (Weimer ct. al. vs. Ross, Secre- tary, March 8, 1SS6.)
