PLEASANT SURPRISE.
Reproduction of Washington's Head
 quarters in the French Capital.

Reproduction of Washington's Head
 quarters in the French Capital.
 After the surrender of Yorktown and the departure of the French, Washing ton established his headquarters at New burg on the Hudson. The house in which he lived is carefully preserved and shown as an historical museum.
 There IS pleasant story of LaFay- cite S affectionate remembrance of the life there. Just before his death, (which occurred in 1884, he gave a dinner party in Paris to the American Minister and some friends who had been old associates Later in the evening, when it came time for supper, the guests were ushered into room which was in strange contrast with the elegance of the apartments they had been in. The ceiling was low with large beams crossing it; there was a single small, uncurtained window and several small doors. It more like an old-fashioned Dutch kitchen than room in French house. A long, rough ta- ble was meagerly set. A dish of meat stood on it, some uncouth-looking pas try, and wines in decanters and bottles, ready to be poured out into glasses and camp-mugs.
 Do you known where we are now?" asked Lafayette, as his companions looked about puzzled, and as if in a dream. ''Ah! the seven doors and one window! and the silver camp-goblets! We are at Washngton's headquarters on the Hudson, fifty years apor' He had reproduced the room as surprise to his friends-Horqce E. Seudder &s St. Nicholas,

4 SACRED SHRINE.
The MiracIeWorking Grave of a Persian
 Saint Visited by Thousands.

The Miracle Working Grave of a Persian
 Saint Visited by Thousands.
 The Persian thinks an awful deal ot the shrine of Shah Zadeh Abdul Azim, erected in mosque but short distance further on from the ruins of Rhei, on the road to Ispahan. The mosque has broad domc, like all Persian mosques, heavily gilt, and that glitters in the fierce sunlight so as to make your eyes ache when mile away. Around the mosque number of other fine mosques have been built, and fourishing little town-strange sight that in Persia-has grown up all around it. The road to the shrine is level and in fair condition, and it is every day from sunrise to sun down thronged with the pilgrims re- sorting to the miracle-working grave of the saint. These pilgrims are of all con- ditions and stations, the women and girls predominating, however. and car riages, carts, wagons, takhteravans Git ters) and kedShawehs (big baskets, one on each side of the horse or mule) bearing the piously inclined, as well as horses, camels, mules and donkeys performing the same office, pass back wards and forwards in endless rotation all through the sunny season, from April to December. As 1 said, these pilgrims, or hadjees, are of every walk of life, from the mightiest to the humblest; from the feeble old man tot tering under the weight of years to the lusty child of three. Even the Shah re- sorts to this shrine, and before he un- dertakes any lengthy voyage or any thing of an unusual nature, he goes to bow down before the gaudy little structure erected in the interior of the mosque in honor of the departed imaum.
 Often petitioners will avail them selves of this, and before Nusr-ed-Deen set out on his last trip to Europe, some years ago, he was waylaid by a mu- tinous regiment, to whom a request, reasonable enough in itself, had been refused, with the purpose of enforcing their prayer, if need be. The Shah sped past them in his carriage without notice, and some of the enraged soldiers threw pebbles at his glass doors, one breaking pane and few splinters striking him in the face. He had nearly the whole regiment put to death or mutilated for this afterward-all he could get, at least. That the women are in the majority among these seekers after the saints favor may appear strange, but it is easily explained. First of all, the Persian women are better Mohammed- ans than the men, and then they have more requests to make. They will ask for anything-from a husband to the death of rival or of her child. It is said that they also use this trip for the purpose of atfording them rare op- pertunity for flirting and intriguing The fact is true, at least, that you will meet more handsome women and girls on this brief stretch of six miles of road in day, and more unveiled ones, than you can anywhere else in month"; Wolf Ton Schier6rGod t's Sa1a F'rars- cisco CrOnicLe

PROGRESS OF MEDICINE.
Is the Science One That is Making Rapid
 and Reliable Advances?

Is the Science One That is Making Rapid
 and Reliable Advances?
 The art of killing has made vast strides since prImeval men fought with the thigh-bones of their deceased rela- tions, and in these days of torpedoes and Gatling guns no one will deny that it continues to develop with rapidity which must be highly comforting to Malthusian economists. The art of healing, on the other hand, has certain ly not progressed to proportionate ex- tent, and scoffers may even be found who maintain that it has not advanced a single step since the time of Hippo crates. Pessimistic views of this kind are not uncommon among clever peo- pie who are enlightened enough to see the shortcomings of medical science without having sufficient knowledge to appreciate either the difficulties in the way or the manner in which they are met. The opposite tendency is, how ever, more fashionable at present, and the ever widening area of conquest achieved by science in the dark realm of disease is the theme of constant jubilation in tho lecture room and the press. Without any wish to damp honest enthusiasm it may be hinted that such rejoicings arc often premature.
