LOVE AND THE WITCHES.

Yt was little, fearful maid, Whose mother left her alone: Her door with iron bolt she stayed, And 'gainst it rolled lucky stone For many night she'd walked with fright when witches by the house had flown. To piping lute in still midnight, Who comes a-singing at the door, That showeth seams Of golden light-- "Ah, open darling, l implore"2 She could not help knowing twas Love, d. though they'd never met before. She swiftly shot the iron bar, And rolled the lucky stone away. And careful set the iron door ajar- Now enter in, Sir Love. pray; My mother knows it not, but have watch ed for you this many day" With fan and roar of gloomy wings They gave the door a windy shove: They pcrched on chairs and brooms and things;
 Like bats they beat around above Poor little maid, shed let the witche in with love.

A Six-FIngered Queen.

Sir Thomas Wyatt, an ardent ad- mirer of Anne Boleyn, left some man uscript notes upon her life, which were privately printed in 1877, and repro duced in an edition Singers of Cav endish's Life of Cardinal Wolsey," in 1925. In the description of the Queen is this passage: There was found up on the side of her nail upon one of her fingers, some little shew of a nail, which was yet so small, by the report of those that have seen her, as the workmaster seemed to leave it an oc- casion of greater grace to her hand, which, with the tip of one of her other fingers, might be, and was usually by her hidden without any least blemish to 1t.

How Many Times Do You Chew?

A party of three men. says the New York Sun, fell to talking over the news from England that Mir Clad stone chews every mouthful of his food 22 times. They agreed to ob- serve their own habit at dinner that day, by counting the motions of the jaws in eating, and to make report when next they met. IL was found by the report that all three oi them out did Mr. Gladstone, in one respect at least Number one ascertained, by actual count that his teeth ordinarily operate from 35 to 40 times upon meats, from 20 to 80 times upon dry bread, and from l ? to 20 times upon two counters did not differ widely from the foregoing report, and prob ably they fairly represent the food chewing habits of people who give heed to the duty of mastication.

A Cheap Non-Conductor.

A French engineering firm at Bou- logne has begun to use a very cheap and efficient non-conducting pipe GOV ering consisting of mixture of wood sawdust with common starch used in a thick paste. The mixture is said to adhere perfectly to iron pipes if all traces of grease are removed before applying 1t, and one inch of this coat ing is said to be as serviceable as the most costly non-conducting natarislA New York 1OsxAal.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
NEW YORK, June 1.-THE following en-
try is in the hall of records: Transferred
Brownstone house No. 232 West Forty
sixth street, Mrs. Kate Anderson to Miss
Mary (. Williams. Consideration 81
Miss Williams is q well known medium
who presides over a spiritualistic conclave
on Sunday afternoons. Mrs. Anderson is
the wealthy widow of John Anderson, the
well known tobacconist. The story in
volved in the above transfer for q nominal
consideration Of property valued at s25,O 900
furnishes a curious parallel to the case of
Luther R. Marsh and Nine. Diss Debar
Mrs. Anderson is abroad and her friends
say steps will be taken to recover the
property. The story Of the Widow Ander-
sons capture by the materializing psychic
is long one. In book which Mrs. Ander-
son wrote and had published at q cost of
many thousands of dollars, she gives the
details of how she was led into the spirit
ualistlc camp. It was several years
ago that Widow Anderson first began
attending the seances of Mrs. Williams.
Mrs. Williams would disappear into a
cabinet and then the visitor was enabled to
hold converse with the spirit Of her dead
husband, John Anderson, and she would
also see spirits Of notable men at
these seances. Mrs. Anderson was told
the medium ought to have habitation Of
