A most appalling sound was heard in
the nursery, and the astonished father,
with his hair on end, ran to see what
was the matter. He opened the door
and looked in. Willie was sitting astride
his drum, kicking it with both feet.
Johnny was twisting the cats tail and
bringing forth bowls of dire agony.
Tommy was whirling a rattle, Bobby
Stapleford, a neighbor's boy, was super
intending a fight between two vociferous

barrel, half n dozen other casual young
sters were pounding tin pans, and all
were yelling atthe tops of their voices.

A Postal Clerk.

W. A. McCombs, one Of the most
efficient railway postal clerks running be-
tween Cheyenne and Ogden received
notice yesterday from Washington that
his services were no longer required by
the p~ostofice department. No reason for
the dismissal was given. Mr.. McCombs
has been in the service for the past four
years, being appointed from Nebraska
during the Cleveland admistratiou.
Not knowing why he should be dis
missed when the rules of the civil service.
under which the railway mail service is
supposed to be working, provide for re-
movals only for cause, Mr.. McCombs
has written to Second Assistant Post
master General Whitfield, requesting to
be informed why he should be discharged.
The answer will be looked for with con-
siderable interest not only by Mr..
McCombs, but by his numerous friends.

The wishes of a curious character,
who was named Hilkington, better
known as Squire Hawley, were fully
carried out a few years ago at a place
lear Doncaster. He was buried in his
own garden, amid the graves of his dead
cattle, which had been stricken down by
rinderpest. He was laid out in full
hunting costume, including spurs and
whip, and was placed in a stone coffin
weighing upwards of a ton, which had
to be lowered into the grave by means
of a crane. His old pony was shot and
buried at his feet, and at his head was
laid the bodies of his favorite dog and
an old fox. All his property was left to
his groom on condition that these fu-
neral o~bservances were fully carried out;
in default the estate was to go to the
priest of Doncaster for the benefit of the
Roman Catholic church. The groom,
however, did not suffer the bequest to
himself to lapse.-CasselPs Journal

Omitting lakes, which are in many
cases natural reservoirs, the largest res
ervoir Or artificial lake in the world is
the great tank of Dhebar, twenty miles
southeast of Udaipur city, Rajputana
province, India. 1t covers an area of
twenty-one square miles. The masonry
dam is 1000 feet long by 90 feet high; 90
feet wide at the base and Is at the top.
In southern India, also, there are some
immense reservoirs. That of Cumbum
in Cuddapath district is formed by dam
ming the Gundlakamana river by a dam
81 feet high thrown between two hills.
The reservoir has an area of fifteen square
miles. The Sulekere reservoir in Mysore
state is very little smaller, and next to
Cumbum is the finest in southern India.
Compared with these artificial lakes,
Loeb Katrine Supplying Glasgow, four
and one-half square miles. and Vyrnwy
reservoir Supplying LiverpooD, nearly
two square miles, are insignificant in
size. The Manchar tank in Scinde has
an area of $50 square miles, but only
when fed by the waters of the river dur
ing the months of food. In dry months
it shrinks to quite a small area.-New

that wasn't full of the prettiest girls going
all dressed in the most dazzling of
short skirted costumes and black
stockings. In real life there are
Summaries where the young la

seminaries. Being in this place the
