A Roy Saves q Shin.

At Bourbon, the most neglected port
in the French Indies, q number of ves-
sells rode at anchor. Suddenly tidal
wave was signaled and q cannon-shot
conveyed the order for all vessels TO
leave the port. The crews hastily re-
gained their vessels and in less than half
an hour all ships but one had left the
port. The one which remained deplte
the order was a large brig in ballast, on
whose deck not living soal could be
seen. 4 second shot was fired, and the
brig slowly pivoted and with Tapping
sails made for the open sea. An hour
later it was discovered that the entire
crew of the brig had been detained ON
shore and the only living creatures on
board were lad fifteen year old and the
Captains dog.
In order to obey the order twice given
the lad must have let the anchor chain
slip and cut the hawser, but where could
he get the strength TO hold the helm
against cyclone! Three days passed
and all the vessels had returned to port
but the brig, and fears gained ground.
Suddenly, on the morning OF the fourth
day, naked mast was seen against the
horizon. Like stick at first, 1t grew
longer, and then a hull appeared. All
the sails were furled, and the brig-for
it was the brig-was sailing under masts
and cordage only, kept on her course by
her little jib, hoisted third high. A
quarter of an hour later a tug was at its
side. The brig was brought back after
more than three days terrible strife with
the elements.
After seeing no one come the boy,
knowing that to stay was destruction,
had let the anchor slip, sawed the haw-
ser, and grasping the helm, set her head
for the sea. Slipping rope with run
ming knot larboard and starboard to pre-
vent sudden lurches, ne remained at his
post with the dog, sleeping and waking,
nearly one hundred hours.

Nearly Buried Alive.

In view OF the many strange nervous,
cataleptic and kindred conditions which
are so common nowadays, it is not I'M
reasonable to call attention to the posi-
bilities, which would seem occasionally
to occur, of premature burial. A narrow
escape of this was recently communicated
direct to the writer.
The lady was the wife of the medical
officer attached to eth regiment She
was stationed at - Island, where, at
at the age of twenty eight, she was safely
confined. Shortly after this she was
walking out with an attendant when she
was taken suddenly i'll with a painful
spasm of the heart-what appears to
have been an attack of angina pectoris-
and was conveyed indoors and propped
UP with pillows, suffering great pain,
and, although medical attendance was
summoned, nothing was of avail, and
she died-at least, in the opinion of those
around her. 1t was the custom there to
bury at shutdown any one who died dur
ing the day.
She would never have lived to tell the
story but for an accident, which happened
in this way: Her nurse, who was much
attached to her, was stroking her face
and the muscles of her jaw, and presently
declared she heard sound of breathing.
Medical attendance was summoned and
the mirror test applied, but the surface
was undimmed. Then, to make sure, they
opened vein in each arm, but no blood
flowed. No limb responded to stimulus,
and they declared that the nurse was
mistaken, and that the lady was dead
beyond doubt.
But the nurse persisted in her belief
and in her attentions, aud did succeed in
establishing sign of life. Then mustard
applications to her feet and to the back
of her neck, and burnt feathers applied
to her nostrils, which she remembers
burning her nose, completed her return
to consciousness. -Iocsin.

A Quail Extinguishes a Headlight.

On the Kanawha s. Ohio Railroad a
quail flew against the headlight of loco
motive one evening, breaking the glass
and extinguishing the light. The quail
was picked up for dead and given to the
baggagemaster, who revived it. Soon il
was as clipper as ever, and was turned
loose to 60 on its way rejoicing, while the
train ran the remainder of the way in
darkness.

IN THE EVENING.

In the evening of our days
When the first far stars above
Glimmer DINNER, through the haze,
Than the dewy eyes Of love,
Shall be mournfully revert
To the vanished lnorns and Mays
OF our youth, with hearts that hurt
In the evening of our days?
Shall the hand that holds your own,
Till the twain are thrilled as now,
Be withheld, or colder grown?
Shall my kiss upon your brow
Falter from its high estate?
And, in all forgetful ways,
Shall we sit apart and wait
In the evening of our days:
Nay, my wife-my life! the gloom
Shall enfold US yelvetwise,
And my smile shall be- the groom
OF the gladness of your eyes;
Gently, gently as the dew
Mingles with the darkening maze,
I shall fall asleep with you
In the evening of our days.

Canova,s rheseus and centaur.

l mentioned some time ago that Ca
nova's famous marble group Of TheseJs
and the Centaur was being transported
from the Greek temple erected over it
in the Volksgarten of that city to the
museum of art on the other side of the
ring. The Centaur was transposed with
out difficulty and is already on the ped
estal which fills the recess of the first
landing on the magnificent staircase of
the museum.
Yesterday the Theseus was laid upon
one of the low heavy carts built ex-
pressly for the transport of weighty OBJ
jects, and was drawn through the gar
dens toward the gate. The cart had to
pass over one of the water drains which
run under the Volksgarten. The weight
was too much for the thin vault, which
gave way, and suddenly the cart sank on
one side, turned over, and the statue lay
shattered on the ground The right
arm, which holds the club on high, was
broken off at the shoulder. The statue
was raised and placed under the trees of
the Volksgarteh, whittier the whole city

mishap gets ahoat. Vienna Cor. Lon
