The new star which was discovered last August
in the great Andromeda nebula is reported by
Prof. Asaph Hall to have diminished from seventh
magnitude Brightness to speck barely visible
in the largest telescopes. Some twenty or thirty
such stars have been recorded, but really plaus-
ible theory has yet been advanced to account for
the sudden flaming out and fading away of these

new French clock contains novel applica-
ton of the magnet. The clock appears like a
tamborine with circle of flowers painted on its
parchment head. Around the circle crawl two
bees, the larger requiring twelve hours to COM
plete the circuit while the smaller makes it every
hour. The flowers represent hour divisions, and
the bees, which are of iron, are moved BY two
magnets carried, just under the membrane, by the
clock-work inside the tamborine.

One of the Actors Family.

Alexander Booth, an octoroon, with only
slight traces of African blood claims to one of the
actors family. This is his story as told by him
self to a Cincinnati reporter "I was born slave
in Baltimore, where my mother was the slave and
the mistress of Junius Brutus Booth, the actor,
before he was married. and I was his son. grew
up slave in his family and all the neighbors
knew l was my masters child. After he was
married and had other sons was the body SER
want of the boys, Edwin, Junius Brutus and John
Wilkes. I was several years older than any of
them. was half-grown boy when John Wilkes
was born and was mindle aged man when the
war came and was given my freedom" The
weak part of this story is that the elder Booth
was married before he came to this country, and
his elder son, Junius Brutus, Jr., born before
he went to Maryland. L.. I--.--

English Lords vs.. French Princes.

A wealthy New Yorker and his lovely daughter
were seated in their elegant parlor and the girl
was crying.
"Don't cry, darling; that's papa's DEAR" he
said stroking her bandoline tresses.
"I will cry" she said, jerking away from him.
"You said I should marry an English lord, and
you haven't done it, you mean old thing"
"There, there" he said, soothingly; "it was
not papa's fault, dear. But don't cry, baby and
you shall have one of those nice French princes
who have recently been expulsed."
"Oh, papa, you dear old fellow" and she kissed
him lavishly and dried her tears.
