demanding many thousand victims.
In the following year it was again our
own country which suffered most from
the destructive element Each of the
years since then had one or more dis
astrOus floods here or there, but the
most dire calamity of this kind in late
years was the inundatiOn caused by an
overflow Of the Yellow river in China,
by which over 1000, 900 of people were
drowned and 1, 100000 lost their shell
ter. a smaller inundation took place
there in 1888, which year has charged
against it a number of floods in sew
eral parts of the world.
But while floods are common oc-
currence with all their frightful de-
structiveness and frequently much
more fearful in magnitude than the
one we bewail at present, there is
something about the Johnstown catas-
trophe which makes it peculiar-pe-
culiarly horrible. 1t is the fact that
human carelessness, or rather human
recklessness, seems to be responsible
for it.-Chicago Mail.

FOR OUR YOUNG READERS.
MORNING AND NIGHT.

Good-Morning peeped over her eastern gate,
To see if the children were up;
And laughed at bumblebee coming home late,
Who was caught in hollyhock cup.
Good-Mocning has eyes like the CLINT Of the
skies
When they're bright as the sun and the stars
mixed together,
And her lips are so sweet, and her steps are so
fleet
She can dance like thistledown, fly like a
feather.
You ''never have seen herT' Oh, mei Oh. me |
What dull little sleepy-head you must bel
Good-Morning can sing like a brook or bird;
She knows where the fairies all hide;
Some folk, hard of hearing, say they never have
heard
Her sing though they often have tried.
Good-Morning has hair made of sunshine so
rare,
The elves tried to steal it to weave in the
weather;
Which made her afraid, the bonny wee maid,
To swing on the gate many minutes together.
You never have seen her?' All, mel All, me!
What cross, lazy lie-abed you must bel
ood-Night is her neighbor, dear little soul,
Who swings in hammock, and not on gate.
She half shuts her eyes with great yawn, SO
droll
1t would make an owl laugh, will venture to
state.
Goodnight always brings the most wonderful
things,
To hide in the children's beds, glittering and
cleaning!
Such tales she can tell and she tells them SO
well,
You could listen all night and believe you
were dreamingl
You never have heard her?'' Oh, me! Oh. me.
What small naughty wide-awake you must bel
Goodnight has a house full Of beautiful toys,
That she keeps for the children-no grown
folks are there;
And she carries them of, the wee girlies and
boys,
To her magical palace, and, oh, how they
starel
Good Night never frowns when she sees the
white gowns
Come trooping to beg for more stories-the
dearl-
But with kisses and smiles, the time she be-
guiles,
And bids them to come again soon-do you
hear?
You "never have been there?' All, me All, me-
What very sad, grown-up young chick you
must bel

Warning to Chinese Dudes.

The acting Governor of Kiangsu,
Hwang, has issued proclamation call
ing attention to the sumptuary laws of
the collected statutes of the Ta-ts ing
Dynasty, which he says will be vigor-
ously enforced as regards wearing ap-
parel. The people of this province
(Which includes Soochow and Shanp-
hai), are, he observes, notoriously ex-
travagant in their way of living, striv-
ing to surpass each other in the rich
ness of their apparel, and their want
of propriety is shown in the crowded
state of flower boats and restaurants
where men and women assemble to-
gether. The bright-colored Jackets
and waistcoats of the young men, en-
brOidered at neck and sleeves with
flowers and other ornaments, are shock
ing to the view of sober, respectable
citizens, who know that money should
not be squandered by men on such
things. 1t is a Governors duty to
watch over the behavior of the people
committed to his charge, and he warns
them, therefore, that young men
dressed in foolish, extravagant way
will be arrested and punished, and the
responsibility of their fathers, elder
brothers and tutors will not be over.

Excitement on the Island on the Arrival of
the FortnightIy Packet.
The arrival of the mail throws Fayal
into a state of excitement. Half the
population then come to town, and a
hot and steaming crowd packs itself
into the one post-office that the island
possesses. As the postmaster, plainly
conscious of his Importance on an Occa-
sion which happens only once q fort
night, advances with the letters to the
little desk which separates the throng
from the offices the stranger is struck
by the ridiculous disproportion between
the size of the crowd and that of the
packet, circumstance which is OK
planned by the fact that every woman
expecting tidings from husband or son
is accompanied apparently by the rest
of the family. The jabber subsidies i'll

the crowd intimates its destination,
when half dozen hands are stretched
out to receive it and it is passed over
the heads of the crowd to the fortunate
recipient The buzz is renewed after
each announcements; the postmaster
has constantly to repeat his demand
for silence, in which he is of course
joined by such of the crowd as have not
yet received letter. As the delivery
proceeds the crowd naturally gets
nOisier, and the postmaster becomes hot
and angry with the exertion of shout

An Amusing Anecdote Related by Mr. s.
Barring Gould.
1t would doubtless surprise most
readers, as it did Mr. S. Barring Gould,
to be told that feas are an article of
trade of Iceland. At least he so I'M
derstood the statement. Here is Mr..
Baring-Gould's story. He had passed
the night at farmhouse, and in the
morning fell into conversation with a
Danish merchant, who, it appears, had
arrived at the house after he had re-
tired. Finding his fellow traveller very
agreeable, Mr.. Baring-Gould expressed
his regrets at having deprived him of
the guest bed.
'''Dank you," the merchant an
swered; 'but never slip in an Island
bed"
"Did you lie on the bench in the
sitting-room?"
Yes; not like bed in native
byre. 1t is so dirty and so full of in.
sect" Then, after pause, he said:
"You should come to Husavik, and
see of the fair. it will be dare in dree
week."
II wish that l could, but 1 shall not
be in the neighborhood then. What
trade is carried on at the fair, may 1
ask?"
''Oh, de merchants sells of crockery,
of corn-brandy and of clodes."
Chow do the natives pay? They
have no money"
NO" answered the merchant, "but
dey have fleas."
Il am we'll aware of that. but how
comes that to alter the caseP"
Why" replied the Dane, "dey
takes of de wares, and dey gives us de
fleas. De people of Denmark likes of
de Island feas very much"
"a singular taste," 1 remarked.
Indeed, 1 may say, very singular.
What can there be in them so attract
ive?'
"Oh!" with enthusiasm; "dey is
more big and more long dan in any od-
der country"
"Woe's mer' l exclaimed, 'your
statement is cOrroborated by my ex-
perience."
''De colder de winter. de bigger de
feas," remarked my companion.
''And they bring these denominations
to the merchant stations for barterr'
when dey have washed and dried

chant, pointing; ''dare is lot, lying

THE LATEST FREAK.
He Allows Curiosity Seekers to Breal
CObhIe Stones on His Head.

He Allows Curiosity Seekers to Break
CObhle Stones on His Head.
There is a live novelty in an uptown
dime museum that is attracting gen.
eral attention. This drawing card"
is a man who glories in the exclusive
possession of the power to let immense
cobble stones be broken on his head.
The customary grain of salt does not
accompany this museum statement.
The man is as large as life and as plain
to the sight as day-if the established
admission fee is paid. While doing
his 'act" he wears large but frailly
constructed helmet of iron. This is a
sixteenth of an inch in thickness, and
is placed over his head, the base or
lowest extremity resting on his shoul-
ders. There is an opening for the eyes
and nose. On the top is a square groove
in which an ordinary cobble stone is
placed. Then one of the audience is
requested to break the stone. A
common, large-sized sledge hammer is
used in the work of destruction. The
object of the helmet is to Offset the eff
feet of any blow that might miscarry
and land about the face or shoulders.
The man shows twelve tim es day
twelve new and perfectly constructed
stones being used. There is no "fake'
about the hammer, the stones or the
destroying blows. The enemy to the
cObble told a reporter that he first dis
covered that it was impossible to
break his skull when, on shipboard,
he fell from aloft to the deck, dis
tance of one hundred and ten feet. He
landed, according to his story, fiat on
the top of his head, and got up smil-
ing. This fall was the means of put
ting him into an easy livelihood, he
says, and he has become so accustomed
to cObbles that he actually believes the
biggest steam pile driver of the land
would have large contract on hand
if it attempted to smash his upper
quarters. IN. Y. Mail and Express.
