CAPT. CARRIE OF the British shl Wayfarer.
which arrived in Oakland, Cal, fet DAYS ago,
154 days from Antwerp, reports ahseird phen-
nomenon on the night of Nov. ID The Way-
farer was then in latitude.52o S0I buth lop9i-
Cute 90 ~ west. IL mad been bloting several
days, but with nightfall the air ecame per
fectly calm and the sea as smolh as glass
Overhead the sky was as black as Tx from the
dense masses of heavy clouds, ad with the
barometer at $3.50 a rain storm walooked for.
The expected downpour did lot occur,
but instead the sea glowed with phospho-
reScence beyond anything the oldSt mariner
had ever seen. The ships surroundings were
llt up so that it was possible to rea on deck.
Nobody cared much for reading, hgeyer; the
contrast between the light from the ea and the
inky clouds was so grewsome thai all hands
could not help feeling that someunnatural
catastrophe was about to occur, The crew
were much relieved when a breezedissipated
the CLOUDS, and the phosphorescece disap
peared at the same time.
SENATOR JOHN W. DANIEL of Virinia is Of
medium size, with a clean-shavenface and
classical features Despite a wound received
while campaigning in the Shenandoh valley,
which makes it necessary for him to use
crutches, Senator Daniel, says be New
York Recorder, gets through with a good
deal of active work. Among the southern
people he occupies as a pubic speaker a posi-
tion similar to that held by Daniel Douherty in
the north. A hard student, lawyer o ability,
with winning address and courteous banners
he is a conspicuous figure in public as veil as in
private life. II is an unwritten law in tia United
States Senate that q new member mustoccupy
his seat for year in silent attention tolnd ad
miration of the wisdom of the patriachs of
that august body. Daniel had been at Is desk
but a few weeks when he took occasion d reply
to some remarks of Senator Edmunds The
feeling of amazement and Mortified asAnish-
ment which agitated the NeStorS of the Snate
at such display of irreverencs has a pahllel
only in the case of the master of Oliver Twist
when Oliver asked for another bowl of worn
house soup. But they listened to Daniel then
and have done so ever since whenever he get
up to speak.
THE FRENCHMAN who is going to walk Oh
stills from Paris to Moscow ay be setting
very general fashion without knowing it. 1t i
very delightful to walk on good high stills; a
any rate. it was delightful once and if it wa
delightful once, why should it not be so still
Stills as mode of locomotion have certain ad
vantages over the bicycle They are mucI
cheaper and more convenient, and one is no
| dependent upon good roads, nor, in fact, Of
any kind of roads. In few years time W
may expect to see stills replacing bicycles, an,
| silt clubs taking the place of wheelmen'
| leagues. Perhaps it won't be an unusual thin;
| 10 see men and women marching down tn
middle of the principal streets of our cities, a.
on stills, on their way for afternoon iaunt il
the country. 1t would be an imposing spectacle
1t is easy to calculate what an immense gail
walking on stills would be, in the way of sp9eC
and the amount of ground that could b,
covered, over ordinary walking. One may tax,
with them steps which would vary from twic
to three times the length of the usual step, de
pending upon the hight of the step of the still
from the ground. Surprising that ones aver
erage walking st ep is thirty inches. A silt, tn
step of which is exactly the same hight fror
the ground as the length Of ones leg, increase
the lel gth OF the ep to sixty inches
and consequently doubles the distance covere
with the same number of steps and the sam
amount of exertion. Therefore, if one can wal
twenty miles day without stills he woul
walk forty miles with them. Then there ar
other advantages that should be considered
One would never wet his feet with stills, an
would never need rubber boots. He could wal
with impunIty in the streets of the cities at an
time of the year. Partisans of the romanti
school of literature, ardent admirers of 81
Walter Scott and Lord Macauley, would natu
ally seek to emphasize their admiration for th
characteristic method of those classic writer
by going about habitually on stills.
