M. Pastcur'. Intellectual Activity.

"Did you find NJ. Pasteur an interesting

observances Of the church. But he ap-

he is, perhaps, the least talkative of all

A Touch of Superstition.

A curious story was recently told me
respecting the queen regent of Spain,
which goes to prove that even that intelli-
gent lady Is not free from the touch OF
superstition to which it seems that all
feminine minds, even of the strongest, are
liable. On the day that the offer of King
Alfonso's hand to the Archduchess Chris
tina was officially made known TO that
young lady, she had, by some mischance,
on rising put on garters of different col
ors. As the great good fortune Of her life
had come to her on that day, she never
henceforward would consent to wear a
pair of carriers to match. One might be
pale blue and the other rose color, or one
was white and the other scarlet, etc.
Thus il became a habit with the keeper OF
the royal wardrobe to order at time sew
eral pairs of these silken articles, always
of different tints.
But one day. while King Alfonso was
very i'll, It was discovered by the lady in
waiting on the queen that by some mis-
chance there remained on hand only three
or four pairs. and they were all of one
color-pale blue, il remember rightly. In
the hurry of Donna Christmas toilet, for
she was in haste to return to her husbands
bedside, this change in the small detail OF
her attire passed unnoticed. That day the
king died, and when the young-widow,
woe-worn and heartbroken, was about to
retire to rest, she suddenly became aware
of the lapse from the small superstition
of her happy years. at was an omen!'
she exclaimed, and she wept bitterly

Insularity is in some respects happy
condition, but it fosters q strange blind
ness toward some very important political
truths. ] not now speak merely of its
narrowing influence. We must all be
more or less aware OF this. We must be
aware that we live in kind of seclusion,
in kind of half ignorance that other ma
tions really exist, that other languages
are spoken. When nation thus secluded
arrives at great wealth and power this
narrowness blends with dissatisfaction.
and the compound which results is that
peculiar character which foreign politi-
clans know by the name of John Bull.
They think him very conceited, very self
satisfied, and they are astonished at his
ignorance Of all the affairs which seem to
them most important.
1T is prodigious,4 said Prince Kaunitz a
century ago. what these Englishmen do
not know" II with all this ignorance the
English prosper and grow rich, and keep
an inviolate soil, when almost every coun-
try is trodden at times by foreign armies,
these foreigners can not help respecting SO
much success; but yet they do not admit
the explanation Of it which commends it.
self to us: they do not think we are pros
porous simply because we are wise and
virtuous, for they hold to their opinion
that we are ignorant, but they think that
our insularity, the cause Of our Ignorance,
is also the principal cause Of our pros
perity, since it keeps of enemies and di-
minishes the difficulties of foreign policy.

The Family Of the Dead Dictator.

The name of Nine Barrios, the wife of
the dead dictator Of Central America, is
frequently mentioned in the public prints
of late 1t is said that she gave $4,000 to
promote the recent expedition on the City
of Mexico. She is a remarkable woman.
Rufino Barrios, strong as he was in iron
will and despotic tendencies, had help
meet in his wife. He had nine children,
four of them by former wife. All Of
them have been left to the care Of Nine.
Barrios, and are living with her here.
The eldest son comes from West Point
every Friday night, being student at the
military academy there. A gentleman
who was well acquainted with the affairs
of Gen. Barrios told me that the general
left property to the amount of $4,000, 900.
About third Of this went to Nine. Bar

A Boston girl Of 20 OF ther,abouts, one
of the reigning bellies belonging to one OF
the Back Bay families, was swinging down
Beacon street the other morning, with
cheeks flushed by the sharp cir and the
glow Of health pulsing all through her
body She was out for her morning con-
stitutionar and also to give the same tonic
to a hopelessly ugly Skye terrier that was
tightly clasped by one arm just below the
swelling line of her well-proportioned fig
ure, and whose shaggy face peered out in
the world with the air of disgust that only
Skye terriers wear Opposite the public
garden the girl and dog were met by an
other girl walking more leisurely and
without a canine incumbrance. There
was kiss and few words Of chat that
were soon ended by the exclamation from
the girl who carried the pet well, good
bye, Maud, dear, must be back home by
10 o'clock, for Larsen comes at that hour
to give sweet little Topsy his bath. Do
come and see me- And so the girls sepa-
rated.
Topsy was the ugly dog, of course, but
who was I.arsens He is respectable
young German who earns an honest living
by going around to the houses Of the best
people and giving baths to dogs. For
small dogs he has 80 cents, and for rs cents
he washes any size dog, no matter how
large, and furnishes his own soap and
towels too. This is the latest Boston no
ton, and it grew up from a well-known
lady's kindness. The German was out of
work, and was known to the lady to be
deserving. She had no work for him, but
she put her brain to work, and then went
around among her fashionable friends get
ting their promises of what dog patronage
they could command. The result is that
Larsen now has as a regular clientele as
many dogs as he can attend to.-Boston

Girl. at a Fencing Academy.

Since IL is the fashion now to be robust
and muscular, many Of the young girls Of
New York are devoting a great deal Of
their time to the art of fencing. On
Broadway, in the vicinity Of the Metropol-
itan opera house, is well-known fencing
academy, presided over by good Hooking
French professor, where any morning may
be seen bevy Of young women, attended
by their chaperones, preparing to do
battle with the deadly foil in custom
which appears to be a combination Of a
Roman warriors dress and that Of a
Brighton Beach bather. Short-sleeved
tunic, trousers reaching TO the knee, long
stockings, with canvas sandals, broad
belt, heavy gauntlets, and, when far
enough advanced, an iron mask, make up
this startling toilet,-New York Cor.

THE FISHERS OF GLOUCESTER TOWN

Thirty.four fisheries Of Gloucester town
Last year in the angry seas went down:
We read Of them lost, in a line or so,
Nor stop to think of the widows woe,
Nor the orphans sigh for the brave who die
Altar at sea when the storm is high.
Thirty -four gallants Of Gloucester town,
Hard-working fellows, Of no renown;
But widows ten and orphans score
Watch and wait for the thirty-four,
And mothers weep DER babies that sleep,
To the doleful dirge of the Graded deep.
Roll, pillows, roll, with roar and frown
Over the fishers Of Gloucester townl
Others will seek thee who foam and fret
The orphan mendeth his fathers net,
And he looks afar DER the angry bar,
Where the glossy backs of the dolphins are.

Several little boys, who always play

Light from n Pound of Coal.

Franklin institute tests indicate that
one pound Of coal burned under good
boiler yields light Of about twenty can
dies by the incandescent electric system.
The same weight of coal gives from the

eighty being ordinarily available on &C

gas from one pound Of bituminous coal
yields from fourteen to seventeen candles.
