A Troublesome Worm.

It was funny to start with, but twice
as funny when the great mystery was
unraveled. At one Of the Lewiston
school buildings the janitor, who is
painstaking and careful, had been ac-
cused of negligence in sweeping the floor
He denied the charge, and said he swept
the floors regularly and carefully, but
that no matter how well he did it, the
next morning the floor was covered with
dirt and the result of his sweeping went
for nothing. He couldn't understand it.
Only one solution, ghosts-and he didn't
believe in ghosts.
Due investigation of his sweeping was
made by the authorities, and they found
that the sweeping was well done. The
next thing was to investigate the floor,
and here they found the solution. On
lifting some Of the planks, they found
the under flooring full of borers, the
meanest kind of worm, one that works
out in the night and drags it's dusty self
all over things in general, stirring up the
dirt in the cracks so that the first foot
steps of the morning will send the dirt
all over the floor. This was the solution
of the mystery and the death of the borer.

a Thousand Guineas the Fee.

The largest fee ever paid to a Scotch
advocate was that of 1000 guineas sent
to the lord advocate with his brief in
the recent action with reference to the
Murthly estates. Five hundred guineas
was the fee at first sent, but this was
not enough to induce his lordship to
leave his duties in parliament Some
time ago the lord advocate received a
fee of 800 guineas in a court of sessions
case-till then the highest fee known in
Scotland. 1t is curious that both fees
should have been supplied by American
millionaires, Mr. Kennedy and Mr.. Ross
Winans, and it is equally curious that
both of them lost their actions in the
court.-London Truth.

An Everlasting Chimney.

To build a chimney that will draw
forever and not fill up with SCOT you
must build it large enough, sixteen
inches square; use good brick and clay
instead of lime up to the comb; plaster
it inside with clay mixed with salt; for
chimney tops use the very best of brick,
wet them and lay them in cement NOR
tar. The chimney should not be built
tight to beams and rafters; there is
where the cracks in your chimneys
come, and where most of the fires origi-
nate, as the chimney sometimes gets red
hot. A chimney built from the cellar
up is better and less dangerous than one
hung on the wall. Do not get your stove
pipe hole too close to the ceiling, but
about eighteen inches from it.-New
York Journal.

Consumption Among MONKEYS.

The monkeys in our menageries usual
ly die of consumption. Recent investi-
cations which connect pulmonary tuber-
cles with bacilli, and indicate that
the germs of these pestiferous creatures
may be communicated by the breath,
render it matter of small surprise that
the poor creatures, confined together in
the detestable atmosphere of such places
as the monkey house of the Geological
gardens, should become thus infected
and speedily die. It is a curious fact
that the keepers of Gagged animals in
menageries are usually victims of pull
:nonary consunption.-New York Tele-
gram.

How City Water NAV Be Wasted.

In a recent water works report a table
is published giving in gallons and hun
dredths of a gallon the discharge of water
per minute through various sizes of orr
fees at different heads. Rough calcula-
tons are also made showing the i'm
mense quantities of water which escape
in the small streams sometimes allowed
to run from faucets in cold weather to
prevent freezing. It is also shown that
stream the size of pin running one
year with head Of $50, will flow lis, 6S2
gallons, at loss, counting at the rate Of
ten cents per 1000 gallons, Of $11.57.-

Cheap Literature.

Some idea of the quality of what is
known as penny dreadful" literature in
England may be obtained from the state
ment that lady, the wife of well
known physician, had occasion to com
plain several times that her cook neg
lected her duty. Finally this negligence
became so gross that the mistress was
compelled to haul her over the Goals.
What was her amazement to be calmly
informed by the young woman that she
was SO much occupied with the novel she
was writing for weekly paper that she
had no time to attend to her duties in

DO DOGS HAVE MINES!
Strange Stories of the Power of Magnet
Ism Over Dumb Brutes.

Strange Stories of the Power of Magnet
ism Over Dumb Brutes.
Even MI. Jingle and Mr.. Jesse never
thought OF applying animal magnetism
to sporting dogs But this Is part Of
''The Scientific Education OF Dogs" as
practiced and taught by III. e." II
have held a lot of dogs by the magnetic
power Of VIII from doing wrong hun
dreds OF yards away from me, says "a.
h, !" ard he adds that If he unbent his
mind by making . remark to q friend
the spell was broken. It cannot be the
power Of the human eye, hs thinks, that
acts thus, for how can the eye act at
quarter Of miles distance? He might
shut his eyes and try If the magnetic
power still lasts. ITO be first rate dog
breaker man must have lots Of animal
magnetism" which, according to this
philosopher, is developed by force Of
will. But what is win. or is it form
of "magnetismY'
Even in dog breaking we reach at once
the debatable land Of metaphysics, and
are embarked on Schopenhauer's specu-
lations before we know it. or animal
magnetism exercised by the rider on the
horse little need be said. The man may
influence the beast by contact uncon-
sciously, not by twill force" It is diff
ferent when III H." turns distant dog
from particular corner of field by
simply wishing with all his force. The
whip and the will had better be kept
separate as much as may be, and some
dogs answer TO the will which merely
sulk under the whip.
The cleverest Of III. HIS" dogs was
retriever. He was fishing in her COM
pany, caught his fly on a stump of the
opposite bank, sent the retriever across
the water for it, and she brought it
safely. When friends fly caught in a
bough of a willow some feet above the
water, the dog swan across, climbed
into the top of the bush, jumped, fastened
on the bough as she fell, bit it through,
and restored the tackle. ...-.
The dog was sent for wounded NAL
lard which was swimming below the
ice. She ran eighty yards down stream,
broke hole in the thin ice, and waited
like cat at a mouse hole. There she
caught the mallard as he came I'D to
breathe. If this was not reasoning what
is reason? But some other power must
have been exercised in the following
case: "H. H." left his dog at the front
door of a house, with friend to watch
its proceedings. He himself left the
house by the aid of ladder set against
high window in the back and walked
away. The dog began to be uneasy as
soon as the master had thus escaped, and
was with him in five minutes.
Could he have been guided by smell or
was he attracted by animal magnetism?
If the human mind can really influence
that of dog from distance, the force
which we call mind must be common to
man and beast, and Sin that equal sky"
retrievers may keep III. H. s" company.
The attention of Mr.. Romaines and of
the Psychical Society, as well as the
study Of sportsmen, should be given to
the subject We are only beginning to
study the psychology of animals, and
yet it may be the proper starting point

The Polite Frenehman.

When Gen. Moreau was in the United
States he was once the victim of a rather
drou misunderstanding. He was pres
ent at concert where piece was sung
by the choir with the refrain:
Tomorrow, tomorrow"
Having a very imperfect knowledge
of English he fancied it to be cantata
given in his honor, and thought he dis
tinguished the words:
'To Moreau, to Moreau."
Each time the refrain was repeated he
rose to his feet and gracefully bowed
on all sides, to the great establishment
of the audience, who did not know what
to make of it.-Le Figaro.

Powers of the English Language.

Professor Jacob Grimm, the author of
the most learned German grammar and,
jointly with his brother, the best German
dictionary, says: "Among all the mod
ern languages none has, by giving up
and confounding all the laws of sound,
and by cutting off nearly all the infec-
tons, acquired greater strength and
vigor than the English. Its fullness of
free middle sounds, which cannot be
taught, but only learned, is the cause of
an essential force of expression such as
perhaps never stood at the command of
any other language of men,"

GEN. FREMoNT's LENlENcY.
Tne Pioneers Clerneney to Condemned
Mexican Prisoner OF war.

the Pioneers Clenency to Q Condemned
Mexican Prisoner OF War.
Just before the capture of San Luis
Oolspo the men under Fremont had
been subjected to great exposure and 30
privation and hardships of all kinds, and
their hatred Of the Mexioans had reached
Its height In fact, it was pretty clearly
understood that If any Of the enemy was
unfortunate enough TO fall into their
hands they would spend but little time
or sentiment in disposing of him.
On Dec. Is. two days after the taking
OF the town. the pickets captured Don
Jose de Jesu Pico, who was called Totci.
He was tried by court martial on the
charge of breaking his parole, was found
guilty and was sentenced to be shot.
The fact that Pico was leader rendered
him still more an object of hatred and
dlstrust, and on every side were heard
murmurs of approval when it was decid-
ed that he should pay the penalty of his
treachery with his life.
The execution was ordered for half
past 10 o'clock in the morning, and at 10
o'clock the whole battalion was ordered
to parade on the plaza, where the execu-
ton was to take place. The prisoner
was confined in room in the Mission.
Fremont. with two or three of his Of
hcers, was present awaiting the coming
OF the prisoners family to take their last
farewell of the beloved husband and
father. The prisoner, with bowed head,
was seated on one side, and opposite
stood Fremont with folded arms and
face unmoved from its usual stern de-
nleanOr
The officers in grim silence were
grouped about when the wife, with her
eight or nine young children, entered
dressed in the deepest mourning. The
wife'was beautiful woman of stately
bearing. and the children of delicate and
refined appearance. No word was ut
tered to break the silence, which had
grown oppressive. Then the children
fell upon their knees, and with fearful
eyes and outstretched hands mutely
begged for the life so dear to them.
Among the officers present was that
stern soldier, Capt. Richard Owens, who
had never feared a living foe, but whose
eyes were then dimmed with tears at
the pathetic sight before him. Sudden
ly, for he could no longer control him
self, he uttered the one word, ''Colonely
Fremont's face relaxed its determined
expression, and he exclaimed, Eyes.
Dick, know we had rather meet thou
sand Of them in the field tomorrow than
take this one life" Turning to the pris-
oner he said. "You are pardoned; you
are free"
The prisoner fell upon his knees at
Fremont's feet and pressed the hem of
his cloak to his lips, exclaining brokenly
in Spanish: ''My life was forfeit You
have given it back, and henceforth it
shall be devoted to you" Instantly
Pico ordered that his horse be saddled,
and from that day on there was no more
devoted follower of Fremont through
danger of every kind than the man
whose life he had given back to him.
