why ihe Prisoner Wept.

A San Antonio darkey was on trial
for stealing money from house on
Saledad street. Julian Van slyck, the
attorney for the prisoner, IN bis address
to the jury said:
Gentlemen, my client Is poor man.
He was driven by hunger and want TO
take the small sum Of money. All that
he wanted was sufficient money 10 buy
bread, for il IL in evidence that he did
not take the pocketbOok containing $500
that was In the same bureau drawer. IL
he was professional thief he certainly
would have taken the pocketbook."
The eloquent attorney for the accused
was interrupted by the conyulsive sobs
Of his client.
"why do you weepS" asked Judge
Noonan, who was on the bench.
"Bekase didn't see dat ar pocketbook
in the bureau drawer" was the reply.

EisIfernran's Luck.

In Scotland they have n curious way
OF fishing that takes the medal for the
ease and repose with which II !, con-
Quoted. The fisherman, we will say, is
after pike. Selecting big goose from
his barnyard, or half-a-dozcn geese, as
the case may be, he ties baited hook
and line about five feet long to their
feet, and on reaching the water turns
them In. The birds swim out, and the
fisherman lights his pipe anG sits down.
In few minutes fish sees the bait and
seizes 1t, giving the goose good pull.
The bird starts for shore full tilt, fright
ened half TO death, dragging the Hsh
upon the bank, where II IL unlocked.
The line being rcbaited, the feathered
fisherman Is again sent out 10 try lts
luck. A flock of geese can make quite
a haul in the course Of the day, the
human fisherman having only TO take
off the game and bait the hooks, the
pulling In and hooking being done by
the birds.

How Long we Should sleep.

The latest authority on this veXed
question, DR.. Malins, says that the
proper amount of sleep to be taken by
man is eight hours. So far as regards
city life the estimate is probably correct.
Proverbal wisdom does not apply to
modern conditions Of social existence.
Give (hours) for man, seven for
woman, and nine for pig" says one
proverb; and second, quoted by Mr..
Hazlitt in his English Proverbs, de-
clares that nature requires five; custom
allows seven; laziness takes nine and
wickedness eleven" These conclusions,
were, however, drawn from observation
of country life. Physical fatigue Is
more easily overcome than intellectual.
Which Of us when travelling in the
country or abroad, or in any way sep
arated from the ordinary process of
thought and anxiety, has not found
that he could, without difficulty, do
with couple of hours less sleep than he
was in the habit of taking? Men, how
ever, who follow an intellectual pursuit
are exceptionally fortunate if the pro-
cesses of restoration occupy less than
seven hours. More frequently they
extend to eight or nine hours. Kant, l
see it stated, took never less than seven
hours. Goethe owned to requiring nine.
Soldiers and sailors, on the other hand,
like laborers, do with much less guam
tity. / am afraid to say how few the
Duke Of wellington regarded as essen
tial. A schoolmaster under whom at
one time | studied, hard working man
at the acquisition OF languages, pro-
claimed loudly that he never took more
than five hours sleep. The hour at
which he rose in the morning gave
some color to this assertion. Only In
after life did / discover that a two
hours post-prandial siesta was not in
eluded in that allowance.

Getting Logs 10 Market.

The California Architect and Builder
gives the following graphic account Of
the mode adopted in Nevada for getting
logs to market. A chute is laid from
the rivers brink, up the steep mountain
to the railroad, and while we are telling
it the monster logs are rushing, thun-
dering, flying, leaping down the de-
cliyity. They come with the speed of a
thunderbolt, and somewhat Of its roar.
A track of fire and smoke follows them
fire struck by their friction with the
chute logs. They descend the seventeen
hundred feet of the chute in fourteen
seconds. In doing so they drop seven
hundred feet perpendicularly. They
strike the deep water with Il report that
can be heard mile distant. Logs fired
from a cannon could scarcely have a
greater velocity than they have at the
foot of the chute. The average velocity
is over one hundred feet 4 second
throughout the entire distance, aud at
the instant they leap from the mouth
their speed must be fully two hundred
feet per second. \ sugar pine log some
times weighs ten tons or more! What
missile! The water is dashed into the
air like grand plume OF diamonds and
rainbows, the feathery spray is hurled
to the height of hundred feet. 1t
forms the grandest fountain ever be-
held. The waters foam, and seethe, and
dash against the shore. One log having
spent its force by lie mad plunge into
the deep waters, has floated so as to be
at right angles with the path Of the de-
scending monsters. The mouth OF the
chute is perhaps, fifteen feet above the
surface of the water. A huge log hurled
from the chute cleaves the air, and
alights on the floating log; you know
how bullet glances, but can you imag-
inc a saw-log glancing? The end strikes
with heavy shock, but glides quickly
past for short distance; then crash
like the reverberation of artillery, the
falling log springs, vertically, into the
air, and with curve like a rocket falls
into the water, a long distance from the
log it struck.

Spring Fashions.

Sashes serve TO redeem many plain
toilette.
Blouses of gauzc, tulle, or lace are
worn over low-necked dresses.
Some of the new shapes OF straw bon
nets look like hussar's helmet.
Long hair-pins, with Rhinestone
heads, are snowy and fashionable.
Lovely Persian embroiderics are Inn
ported for silk and very fine wooleL
dresses.
II Is not fashionable now TO have ones
gowns made uncomfortably tight about
the arms aud bust.
A pretty fashion for plaln-colored
wooden dresses, Is 10 have the jacket
facing. plastron and sash Of bright SUI
rah.
Black tulle is covered with n snowy
jet embroidery for draperies aud plas-
tron, with many pendants from the
center of the flowers.
Seersucker makes very useful every
day washing dress, and may be utilized
for travelling in warm weather, as II Is
cool and stands rough usage.
Turbsns are to be much worn, both
down on the forehead and back on the
head like a bonnet. They are made Of
straw, cloth to match the dress, and
tinsol goods.
Princess dresses are coming In again.
They are made very much like those
made fashionable several years ago,
with the exception Of loose sort Of
jacket that Is arranged In front.

The Latest in Explosives.

The latest thing in explosives is
blasting paper. Dynamite, it is claim
ed, is nothing to it, and it can be made
at so small a cost that the present con-
dtion of the dynamiters' treasury
would suffice to furnish enough Of it to
blow all England into "smithereens."
1t is a patent of a Viennese by the name
Of Petry, and is now coming into use
in excavating for building purposes. 1t
is made Of common blottiug paper. The
paper is coated with hot mixture COM
posed Of seventeen parts OF yellow
prussiate Of potash, /. parts of charcoal,
35 parts of refined salt, 20 parts Of chic
rate of potash, and ten parts Of wheat
starch, added to $500 parts Of water.
The sheets are dipped in the boiling
mass and dried. Then they are cut into
strips, which are rolled into cartridges,
and the article is ready for use.
The old plan Of telling trees by means
vi tue axe anu WeuSe mas idiiSH iEto
disrepute. The lumbermen in Canada,
Maine and Southern forests now use
dynamite, which is more expeditions
and effective than any means yet tried.
Several channels are dug underneath
the tree at the roots or bored into the
trunk. The dynamite cartridge is then
placed in these channels and exploded.
The tree, instead of being scattered or
mutilated, as is often the case when the
wedge and axe are used, is lifted right
out of the ground and falls intact.
Large logs are split and stumps raised
by the same means.

An Accommod a Ting Judge.

One OF the keenest things ever said on
the bench Is attributed 70 Judge Wal
ton. While holding term Of the SUI
preme court In Augusta he sentenced a
a man to seven years In prison for .
grave crime. The respondents counsel
asked for a mitigation Of the sentence
On the ground that the prisoners health
WAS very poor. "Your honor" said
said he, 81 am satisfied that my client
cannot live out half that term, and l
beg Of you to change the sentence"
"well, under those circumstances"
said the judge, 81 will change the SEN
tence. will make II for life instead OF
seven years." IL is needless to add
that the respondent agreed to abide BY
the original sentence, which the judge
permitted him to elect.-LerisfoS (As')
