The Solar Record.

AT precisely twelve o'clock every day
the Naval Observatory ut Washington
telegraphs the time all over the country.
The instruments of the Western Union
are in the room where the computations
are made, and just three and n half
minutes before noon, operating ceases
in telegraph offices all over the country,
at great loss and Inconvenience some
times. The wires are then put in un-
broken connection with Washington.
A note of warning is sent in advance,
and at the second when the observer
notes the passage of the sun over the
sevcnty-ffth meridian, the electric cur
rent flashes the news all over the coun-
try, and thousands of clociis-sevcn
thousand in New York City alone, it is

READS UPSIDE DOWN,
Curious Case of Perverted Vision In
Pennsylvania Girl.

Curious Case Of Perverted Vision In a
Pennsylvania Girl.
very peculiar case of perverted
vision has been presented to an oculist
Of York, Pa. says the New York Journal
little girl of ten years, the daughter
of one of this city's most respected citi-
zcns, was discovered by her school
teacher to be unable to read her read
ing exercise unless the book was held
upside down. The teacher Immediate
ly communicated the fact to the par
ents, and they became very much
worried.
The oculist was called in and an ex-
animation made of the childs eyes.
They were found to be entirely normal.
The only conclusion arrived at was
that the strange freak of vision was
the result of habit of trying to read
with the book pages in I'm unnatural
position, habit contracted some years
ago when the child was first sent to
school
At this time the child in writing
numbers upon slate always made
them upside down, and as it was never
observed or corrected she gradually
drifted into the habit of reading the
same way.
The only means of cure possible is to
teach the child every thing over
again as though she never knew any
thing before. This will be carefully
done and a cure of this really phcnom-
email case is aDxiously looked for in the
near future

RURGLED FOR A WAGER.

a Society Man Steals Silver from Swell
Houses to Win n Bet.
II heard the other day good story,
which my informant believes to be
true" writes the "NIan About Town"
in the New York Star. 81 give it for
what it is worth: A young man nbout
town made bet of five hundred dollars
that he could visit number of fashion
able receptions on single afternoon
and carry off five hundred dollars worth
of silverware. According to the terms
of the bet he was not to visit any
house where he was known. He mere
ly picked out n list of receptions from
II society paper, called cab and started
on his predatory expedition. At the
first house he was about to take @
silver-mounted brush from the mems
dressing-room when an application of
the teeth convinced him that the article
was not worth the risk. Accordingly
he dropped the brush and contcnted
himself with some other article. He
visited three or four places, and at each
took something of value. Finally, just
after he had slipped several spoons into
his pocket at one place, big man with
heavy mustache said to him. IIave
you every thing you want?'
Affecting to understand the other to
refer to the eatables, he of the bet an
swcrcd: Yes, thank you; I'll not eat
any thing more When the young
man left the house his qucstioner, who
was detective, saw him get into the
cab and heard the instructions given to
the driver. When the maker of the bet
arrived at the next house he went to
the drcssing-room and promptly began
poclcting silver. But in the midst of
this the detective emerged from under
the bed and attempted to arrest the
supposed thief. The latter, however,
being an athlete, shook Off the detect
i've, tripped him up, and when those in
the house reached the scene succeeded
in pcrsuading every one that the dc
tcctive was the guilty man. This ac-
complishcd, the young man FASTENED
home, did up his plumber in packages
addressed to the owners and sent each
package home by messenger boy
cautioned to deliver his packages and
answer no questions. The audacious
young man won the bet and escaped ar
rest"

AN AZTEC SACRIFICE.

specimen SCCno In MEXICO IN tho Days OF
tho MontcxumAs.
Fiftytwo years constituted the Aztec
cycle, says the Detroit Free Press. To
this cycle was added a complement of
thirteen days, intended to make the
solar and civil years agree. II was be-
lieved that the world would come to an
end on the last night of u cycle, and
that the gods, II merciful, would light
their fires on the distan& mountains. If
the world did not come to IN end the
Aztecs congratulated themselves that it
would survive another cycle, and the
thirteen complementary days were
passed with fcasts, sacrifices. and bac-
chanals.
In the temple of Iruitzilipochtli there
was to be n gladiatorial combat, which
was nothing less than sacrifice. The
six ministers of the ceremony were ut
hand. Topiltzin, the chief among them,
clad in n crimson vestment, with q
crown of vari-colored feathers, was per-
forming the duties that preceded q sac
rifice to the god, and the others, with
white robes bordered with black, their
faces hideous with somber pigment and
mouths painted white, assisted him. A
crowd filed the stone walls of the tenn
pie to witness the spectacle, surging
with impotence about the temalcatl Tor
round stone platform, eight feet Highly
where the combat was to take place.
The victim, prisoner of war, is
brought in. Armed with only short
spear and shield, he is placed upon the
temalcatl, tied by one foot and con-
fronted by an Aztec warrior, fully

desperation; his coarse, black hair
struggles about his face, and his thick
purple lips CULVER as he views the we'll
armed soldier before him.
At word they fall to the fray. The
spears clash, and they fight like de-
mons-thc victim with the desperation
of certain death, the soldier to uphold
his vulor among his comrades.
Suddenly, realizing how unequal the
contest, and that his fate is sealed,
whatever the outcome of that battle,
the prisoner throws away his shield
and spear, and presents his breast to
the soldiers weapon. pause, O
blow, and the victim falls heavily to the
stone.
In a tricc the priests, with frenzied
shouts, and hair streaming about their
dcmoniacal faces, are upon the temal-
catl, and have borne the dying man to a
block of green jasper, on whose convex
surface they throw him. This is the
sacrifcial stone, and Topiltzin, who now
takes the name of the god to whom he
sacrifices, opens the breast of his vic
tim, tears out his heart and offers it,
still palpitating, to the sun.
Then the bleeding trophy is placed in

decapitated and his head deposited In

skulls of sacrificed prisoners of war are
set into the walls; the soldier claims the
body for his own, and bears it away TO,

ssThese, among other things" said a
prominent dealer in real estate, "have
caused the lots of the Exchange Addi-
tion to sell so rapidly and make them
continually in dsmaAd."
The property known as the Exchange
Addition is situated in the southwest
portion of the city. All of its land is
within a radius of one mile from the
Union depot.
From its sloping surface magnificent
views of the surrounding country are
obtained and large number Of resi-
dences, many of them beautiful and
costly structures, are being erected on
the property.
Just across the river lie the lands of
the Crystal Spring Company, on which
numerous impro vements are being made.
Two iron bridges are to span the Roa-
noke river connecting the Crystal Spring
lands with those of the city.
Numerous industries are to be located
across the river, and an iron bridge is
also to be built from the lands of the
Exchange Addition across the river to
the property of the Roanoke Power
Company.
To the south Of the Exchange Addi-
ton the Presbyterians have secured a
site for the erection of fine female
seminary.
An electric street car line will run by
the property, giving comfortable and
quick means of transportation to any
part of the city.
Cheap houses cannot be erected on
this property, there being restriction
on every sale that no houses shall be
erected costing less than $1,000.
The lots are now being sold at $3.50
each, and are being disposed of very
rapidly. Gray & Boswell are sole agents
for the property and will be glad to
have parties interested inspect it.

MUST BE CONDEMNED.
The City Has Not Power to Cede
Its Cemetery.

a meeting Of the Directors of the Real
Estate Exchange was held yesterday at the
exchange, President W. Il. Boyee in the
chair.
Adolph Sutro addressed the meeting on
the subject OF the City Cemetery removal.
In MS opinion the exchange should endeayor
TO get the United States to condemn TIN
cemetery, as 1t could not be sold By the CRY
under any act of the LEGISLATURE He be-
heyed that IL would be benefit TO the city
TO have all OF the land condemned by the
government. as that portion not necessary
LOT 1ortIneatIoDS would be tran sfOrmed into
beautiful park. Even if the city received
only enough money to buy a new cemetery
and remove the bodies thereto, the GuyerT-
ment improvements resulting from having
the cemetery abolished and park estab-
listed 10 its place would be sufficient CON-
pen sation.
Harold Wheeler. attorney for the board,
reported that IN his opinion the only legal
and practical method OF transferring tine City
Cemetery to the Government would be by
condemnation proceedings on the part of the
Government An act of the Legislature
enabling the city to give the cemetery to the
Government would not i'll fact give toe
proper authority to the city. The CITY can
not be empowered by any act of the Legs
lature To eede or sell the land. the title hay-
ing been acquired similarly to that of park
lands.
The attorney. therefore, thought there was
no use for legislative act; but the Legs
latnre should be asked 10 authoriz,; the city
to purchase land for city cemetery, that IN
the event of the Government condemning
the cemetery ut POInt LoboS the city
would have authority to buy other lands b
which the bodies Of the INDECENT dead might
be removed.
The board instructed its Committee on
City Cemetery Removal to confer with It's
attorney, the Mayor and other city officials
about bill TO be Introduced in the Legs
latuTe. authorizing the city to purchase
lands for a new city Cemetery.

General Sherman and the Newspaper War
Correspondence Old Tecumsehn and
the Would-Be Assassin.

Colonel Boudinot of Visalia, who is
spending few days at the Palace, was for
time On General Sherman's staff during
the Atlanta campaign, and tells the follow
ing anecdote of the General, which he saws
has never been in print:
During the famous march to the sea ten
men belonging to Hampton's Legion band
ed themselves together with the ayowed
purpose OF assassinating Sherman, and by
chance one OF our spies discovered the Mot
and obtained descriptions of the men, One
OF them succeeded in working his way into
our lines, but was captured and identified.
Seeing that it was all day with him he made
clean breast OF the whole affair." but lie
was, nevertheless, sentenced to death. GEN
eral Sherman heard of it and ordered me to
conduct the prisoner to his headquarters.
On his arrival The General eyed him sharply
for moment, and said in that quick,
nervous way SO familiar to all who know
him: so, my man, you intended to kill me,
ELI? am going to let you go uDcondition-
ally, and when you return to your command
present my compliments TO your command
ing officer and tell him that my death would
be OF no benefit to the Confederate cause.
Every officer In my command above the
rank OF Major Is familiar with my plans,
ana there Is not one among them but IS
capable OF executing them
turning abruptly to me lie added: Con
duct him beyond our lines and give him his
liberty"
