ten minute wait in this scene, and, in
the garb of the priest, with cigar in his
mouth, he was chatting away about
Fechter and other celebrities that have
passed from the earthly stage forever
Suddenly he arose, laid down his cigar,
and stepped TO the door TO listen. 'Ah,

and disappeared. A moment later
there was confusion of loud voices
on the stage, concluding with a ring
ing "One" in the rich tones of Mr.
O'Neill. Then there was the peculiar
roar into which applause resolves it
self when it reaches the back of the
stage, followed by the rumble of the
falling curtain. 1--WE killed him"
said the priest with smile, as he pro-
ceeded to v nge his dress for that of

1t appears that the ingenious re-
porter who, during the visit of EN-
peror William and King Humbert to
Naples, disguised himself as a waiter,
and succeeded in establishing himself
behind the kaiser's chair during the
banquet that followed the naval re-
view, is. not TO be credited with the
conception of an original idea in
journalism. An English scribe, dur
ing the Franco Prussian war, when
the French general Bataillc occupied
Saarbricken for a brief period, and
had his meals sent from a hotel in the
town to his tent on the hill, assisted in
taking him his food, dressed as a
knight OF the napkin, and, in conse-
quence. was enabled TO send to his
paper an account of what he had seen
and heard. Again, when the lieuten.
ancy of the city of London went to
Windsor to present its congratulations
on the recovery of the Prince of
Wales, n newspaper man, III an imitn-
ton Windsor uniform, joined the dep
utation, and, although stopped at the
door of the throne room. eventually
sat down with the luncheon party in

The public sales In England usually takes
place In August and despite the great de-
preston in agriculture still existing, Shrop
shires met a ready sale last season, the high
est being $3.50 and 500 for sheep that was
sold and the highest average for the sea-
son for the rented ones being $500 per head
with hundreds of them sold and rented at
from 500 to 500 each, these sales and let
tings being made where this breed of sheep
Is the best known and originating from.
One more important fact might mention is
the trials of Ontario Experimental farm of
Canada In 1875 the experiment was con-
Quoted during a period of five years, five
weather lambs of the different grades being
selected each year. and being subject to ex-
actly the same treatment, were sold as year
lings, an accurate account was kept of the
amount and cost of the food consumed by
each lot of five, amount of wool sheared
and price obtained and at the end Of five
years balance sheet was made as follows:
lst on wool, Shropshires grades average
weight 0 pounds at 5. d., Merino grades
average weight Z pounds at l 8. Q d. ed
the weights OF carcasses and price per pound
obtained for them is shown as follows:
Shropshire grades average weight 1865 pounds
at 3 d. Merino grades average weight l45
pounds at 215 d. The balance shows the
following scale of profit: Shropshire grade
S6.6S, Merino grades $4.S7. l might con-
tnue, If time had been at my disposal, to
give you facts and proofs at great length

shires of America only number about TO-
600 and they are here to stay and to make
the number 10000, 600 millions in less than

The Sieve nth Son.

In France seventh son in direct
succession is called II maroon. In Or
leans, during the present century, the
following was written concerning the
marcou: IF man is the seventh son
of his father, without any female in
tervening, he is a marcou; he has on
some part of his body the mark of a
fleur de lis, and, like the kings Of
France, he has the power of curing
the kings evil. Al that is necessary
to effect cure is that the marcou
should breathe upon the part affected,
or that the sufferer should touch the
mark Of the iieur de lis. OF all the
marcOus of the Orleannais, he of
Ormes is the best known and the most
celebrated. Every year, from twenty,
thirty, forty leagues around, crowds
of patients come to visit him; but it is
particularly in holy week that his
power is most eflicacious; and on the
night of Good Friday, from midnight
to sunrise, the cure is certain.
A darker superstition concerning
the seventh son exists in Portugal. 1t
is there believed that the unfortunate
being who is the seventh male in direct
succession, is in the power of the
Prince of Darkness, by whom he is
compelled, on every Saturday even
ing, to assume the appearance of an
ass. In this guise, and accompanied
by troup of dogs, he is compelled to
race over moor and through village
until the light of the Sabbath dawns,
when he may resume his human form
for another week. Fl. S. Bassett in st.
