Paying a Big Price.

A Broadway car, crowded with peo-
pie, ran off the track into a snow drift,
and was a long time getting back into
place. A fat, rubicund and jocund
passenger, hanging by a strap, pulled
the bell-strap Zone Of them) a great
many times as a signal to 60 ahead, and
laughed inordinately because the car, of
course, could not go ahead. The fat
man got into quite a gale and infected
the other passengers. Everybody
laughed-everybody but the conductor.
He leaned seriously agains: the side of
the door at the back Of the Cur with his
hands in his pockets, and quietly
watched the proceeding q. After the
car got started. the fat man stopped
ringing the bell. but still looked ex-
tremcly jolly. Then the conductor
stopped up to him and said:
"i'ou've rung just thirty.fvc points
on my fare indicator there. I'll trouble
you for $l.75."
The fat man ceased to smile, and
lapsed into seriousness: in fact, became
angry: He paid the price for his joke
though.

A Practical Test.

Not long ago a rantling Chicago COM
munist gathered a crowd and entertained
them with his diatribcs on the inequali-
ties of riches and poverty. He was in
the midst of his fiery declarations that
the capital of the rich belonged to the
laboring classes, when a clear voice arose
from the crowd: you've got a gold
watch, and I haven't any. want yours"
The speaker was non-plussed. Recover
ing himself, however, he said: 81 bought
this watch and paid for it." Don't make
any difference" persisted the voice,
''you've got a gold watch, and l haven't
Il want it! ~ The talker was checkmated,
and the meeting broke up.

In England high treason was once pun
ished byi dragging at the horses tail,
through the streets from the prison to
the place of execution; or by plucking
out and burning the entrails, while the
prisoner was yet alive; or by hanging
by the neck, so as not to destroy life ;
also by beheading, quartering, and
the exposure of the fragments of the
body in such places as the king should
direct.
1t has been found by DR.. FSit that the
ear in women can perceive higher notes
that is, sounds with greater number
of vibrations per second-than the ear
of men. The highest limit of human
hearing is somewhere between forty one
and f3rty-two thousand vibrations per
second. Few persons have equal sensi-
bilities to acute sounds in both ears, the
right ear usually hearing a higher note
than the left. The lowest continuous
sounds have about sixteen vibrations per
second.

On the Pacific coast, when they make
up their minds to see sea serpent, they
generally observe one worth talking
about. Ensign Selim E. Woodwork, of
the United States Navy, tells the San
Francisco reporters that short time ago,
when the Ranger was off the coast of
Costa Rica on a surveying trip, the look
out reported a reef some distance away.
They drew near to survey it, ana aw
that the reef was a huge serpent. he
head was larger than mans body, vi
large, piercing eyes. The body was of 4
dirty yellow color. The serpent was a
slow traveller, and the ship gained on it,
but it escaped in the darkness, not be-
fore several musket balls had been fred
into it without apparent effect.

That was a curious case of the girls in
cigar factory in New York, who fell, one
after another, into swoons and fits of hys-
terics, in imitation of one. who had
tainted. No doubt, says tho~ ri5une, IS
was an instance of those epidemic influ-
enc of which the Convulsionnaires of st.
Medard are the best known examples.
During the Ulster Revivals ofa1s59, sim
liar cases occurred. The explanation
of them is that the emotions, acting on
the nerves, simulate seizures tfl sight of
which has caused the initial ysAcitement.
The influence of the mind upon the body
is practically illimitable. The former
can simulate diseases so closely that the
normal physical effects follow, and this
is sometimes done with contagious dis
eases, death even resulting from purely
mental or emotional processes. This is
what is referred to when it is said that in
great epidemics fear kAls more than the
plague.
