REGULARITY OF HABIT.

One of the most difficult of all mi.
nor habits to acquire, says an able
writer, Is that of regularity. 1t ranks
with that Of order. The natural in
cljaation Of most persons is to defer
to the last possible moment, or to put
of to another time, where this can
possibly be done. Yet habits Of reg
ularity contribute largely to the ease
and comfort Of life. A person can
multiply his efficiency by 1t. We
know persons who have a multitude
of duties, and perform . vast deal of
work daily, who set apart certain
hours fer given duties, and are there
at the moment and attend rigidly to
what is in hand This done, other en-
gagements are net, each in order, and
q vast deal is accomplished, not by
strained exertlon, but by regularity.
The mind can be SO trained to this
that at certain hours in The day it will
turn 20 q particular line Of duty, and
at other hours to other and different
labors. The very diversity is restful
when attended to in regular order.
But let these run together, and the
duties mix. and what was before easy
is now annoying and oppressive, and
the exact difference between many is
at this point. There are those who.
confuse ard rush, and attempt to do
several things at once, and accomplish
little, while Others will quietly pro-
ceed from one duty to another and
easily accomplish a vast deal of work.
The difference is not in the capacity
OF the two, but in the regular meth
DDS Of the cue as compared with the
irregular and confused habits Of the
other Scientific American.

TIE BEAUTIFUL TOWERS OF
SILENCE.

'One Of the novel incidents Of my
trip" continued Dir. Anthony, was !,
visit to tie Towers Of Silence, near
bombay, Hiiadoostan. In these towers
the dead arc placed to be deyoured by
ynltures. There are several of them,
and they are situated in beautiful
grounds set out with sllubbery and
flowers. As I walked through the
place ! saw hundreds Of the great,
bald headed, hit!eous yultures seated
among the boughs of the trees. Di-
reetly | noticed that there was 3 COM
motion among the ungainly creatures.
/ inquired Of my cicarone what might
he the matter? lie answered that q
funeral procession WIS coming, and
the Vultales recognized the prospect Of
banquet Oh d toothsonle caglaver.
The procession fled by .us, all tie
mougnefs dressed in white The corpse
OF deceased was carried Oh q bier with
q white cloth covering it. AS the cor
tege saovei slowly towards the silent
tower the yultures scared along over
it, and lighted finally on the top Of
the hollow tesyer. The moment the
body was placed inside they swooped
down into The tower. At their grue-
some feast I could not. see them.
This is tho Indian say OF <lisposing Of
the dead. After the vuIsures have
picked the bones the skeleton is burn
ed and the ashes baried.-Dessger Re Re

PUGlLlSTIC NOTES.
Joe McAuliffe Is DispIeased with Hi

Joe McAulife Is DispIeased with His
Trip to England.
The Directors of the California Athletic
Club met last evening in secret session at
their rooms. Whatever business was trans
acted was kept from the reporters. In fact,
the Secretary said that there was nothing
done, and he had no information to impart.
La Blanche and Mitchell were present, but
it appears that the Directors took no action
in their case which was postponed TO flu
ture date.
Tonight the contest between the middle
weights was to have taken place, and those
who had wagers pending on the result
might just as well call it square" and
draw down bets.
Joe McAulffe has been experiencing
some trouble in England. Judging from
the cablegrams which have been received
at New York, it appears tina: Slavin has
been laying his plans to get the Califor-
MAN TO fight him on the grass under London
prlze-ring rules. The Pelican Club has cut
down its figures, which were ut first
$4,000 to $3.50. McAuliffe positively refused
to meet Slavin outside of the Pelican Club.
and unless that organization keeps to its
original agreement it is probable that
Joseph will shake the English dust off
his boots and take an early steamer for New
York. The Engligh ronghs are taunt-
ing the big fellow and trying
all means TO get him TO sign with Slavin for
a London prize-ring fight, but as McAuliffe
does not know the first thing about the old
rules Of fighting the prospects of match
are very dubious.
These reports, however, are not as yet
confirmed and leading sportsmen of this
city think that there must be mistake
somewhere in the McAuliffe management,
as the Pelican Club has good reputation
for square aud honest dealing.

GOT THE WRONG MAN.
Charlie Bracket Mistaken for n MoIde
and Assaulted.

Charlie Bracket Mistaken for a MoIder
and Assaulted.
Charles Bracket, the politician, walked
into the rooms of the Republican Executive
Committee last night about 10 o'clock, and
rs he entered he asked, do look like an
irOn-molderp"
Those present confessed that he did not.
His appearance resembled more closely that
worn by Kilrain when he emerged from the
ring in Mississippi on that hot July day
when he made the mistake OF going against
John l.. Sullivan. He wore decidedly
weary look and his features were sadly out
of line. One ear was swollen to enormous
proportions, his nose TeSembed a beer
bottle in shape and size, one eye was draped
in hues of black and his lip protruded like
that of an Erie-canal horse.
When questioned about it he claimed that
his head had been used as football by
two men who evidently misto0k him for a
nOn-uni0n mOlder.
81 was standing" he said, "early in the
evening on the corner of Mason and 0'Far-
rell streets when two strangers approached
Inc, and, after looking closely at me, one of
them said. Well you -, have you got a
pistol tool?
II didn't catch on at once and asked
what they meant. We'll show you what
we mean, you iron-molding cur! and he
struck me fearful blow in the face, knock
ing me down. They dragged me into the
street and kicked ME about the face and
ribs; but | managed to tell them they were
mistaken, as | was not an iron-Worker
They looked at me and evidently saw their
mistake, for they took to their heels and
disappeared. l picked myself up the best
| could and went into a saloon, where
washed off the blood. The men l had never
seen before and do not know that | could
Identify them"
