made with service rifles in many cases
where no range exists, and where it is only
possible to fire with some device of this
kind. An ordinary cartridge case is en-

bullet in it's mouth. which together occupy
the position of the service bullet. the part
occupied by the service charge being filled
up by a chamber containinga piston, which
is struck by the regular breech block piston

Strange and Mysterious Warnings Needed
in Time to Escape Death.
Il want to tell you a story said DIR.
Moliere, a well known physician. I'm
not u superstitious man, nor do believe
in dreams, ,Dut for the third or fourth time
in my life was saved by a premonition.
1 got aboard car No. 81, on the Sutter
street line, at the ferry, to ride up to my
Office. AS usual walked to the forward
end of the car, took seat in the corner
with my back to the driver, and, pulling
aipaper from my pocket, was soon deeply
engrossed in the news. Suddenly some
thing said to me. Go to the other end of
the car
''Acting on impulse I changed my
seat, and so rapid were my movements
that the other passengers in the car
noticed them. Remember, was sitting
in the first place with my back to the
driver. l was paying no attention to
anything but my newspaper, and the
premonition. if may 30 call it, could
not have come from any outside inf1u-
ence, such as seeing approaching danger:
but, sir, / had not been in my new seat
more than five seconds when the tongue
of a heavy loaded wagon crushed through
the size of the car just where had been
first seated, and had / not changed my
seat mysback would have been broken
by the wagon tongue.
+'As / said, - continued the doctor Il
am not superstitious, but the incident
have just related, taken in connection
with other incidents of a similar nature
occurring in my life, make me believe in
spite of myself that there is q divinity
that shapes our ends. rough-hew them

In answer. to a question as to what
similar warning or premonition of dan
ger he had ever received, DR.. Moliere
said: "Well, one time was riding on
the Michigan Central railroad. 1t was
bitter cold night, and when 1 entered
the car my feet seemed frozen. walked
forward and took seat next to the
stove in the forward part of the car,
putting my feet on the fender. In a
short time gentleman changed his seat
and came and sat beside me. The
traia was running at a high rate of speed
and the draught soon made the heater IT
the car red hot. Suddenly there came
to me a premonition of danger, and
turning to my companion said: If we
should meet with an accident, a collision
for instance, you and would be in ba6
place. We would certainly be hurled OF
that red hot stove.

. The performers were well drilled and
the music was charmIngly given. To
specify the good work of each one would
take up too much space but all the par
Elephants were worthy of praise. The
"Bo-Peep" of little Miss Georgia Samp-

little lady did remarkably well. Little
"Boy Blue by Charley Clarke was also
well given This young gentleman is
somewhat of new conner in our city
having arrived here but few months
ago. His charming voice and pleasing
manner won him many enconiums dur
ing the evening.
A cornet solo by Mr.. Benton was given
at the conclusion of the operetta and
then Miss Grubbs Tableaux Dart com
pany took possession of the stage and
finished what was to all pleasant even
ing.
A recitation '.Aunt's first visit to the

pleasing manner that she won well

All of emotive and illustrative gesture
of the company were well given and the
entertainment by them was thoroughly
satisfactory. The tableaux were very
fine and it seemed hardly possible that
in the short time Miss Grubbs had in
which to drill the young ladies that they
could have been bought to the perfection
of movement and action to which they
have attained. The yonng teacher must
have had extra fine material to work
on in order to have produced the effect
which she did.
Throughout the whole evening there
was no noticeable break and everything
ran smoothly. The training of the "Bo
Peep performers was all that could have
been desired, and for the tableaux the
long expected calcium lights were pres
ent and handled in manner that added
much beauty to what was a thoroughly
successful entertainment.

A Peculiar Crisis Which Is Now startling
 IrcnCh Dealers.

4 Peculiar Crisis Winch Is Now Startling
 Trench Dealers.
 Paris is experiencing just now a curi- ouS crisis in the bOol; trade. These arise from time to time, for the pub fishing trade is no more free from ovcr- production or "glut" than any other branch of commerce.. There arc about dozcn authors who command the French market, and some four or five whose popularity seems ineXhaustible. Hut the number of novclists is to be counted not by dozens, but by hundreds. And still the publishers go on issuing. A few days ago, says the Chicago Her ald, the publishers of one of these pop ular authors had forty-fve thousand copies of his last venture returned to him. They were the volumes that had been sent to the different railway sta ti1ns; there had been scarcely any sale; they all came back. And yet this au- thor was very popular.
 The explanation is the prevalent plan of sending works first through the press as fcuillctons. The novel had lost its freshness; it was discounted before it was issued. The system IS found to tell on the more expensive volumes. Lately an art publication, an edition de luxe, magnifccntly brought out, illus ,ratcd with original engravings, tbcr- ally announced and generously criti- ciscd, came back to the publisher with only one copy sold; second venture, published at q guinea, obtained a sale of six examples, and then the edition was sold out at one and onc-half francs copy. At present it is understood that there are three million volumes of novels on he hands of Paris publishers which cannot be got rid of, And this number grows from day to day. It was even proposed that these unstable vol umcs should be distributed at country fIirs as prizes for children iust"ad of gingerbread or sweets, but tigt the pre- feet of police intcrfered and stopped the practice.

A STUDY OF NOSES.
some Observations by a Noted Physiog-
 nomlst.

Last year Prof. Annie Oppenheim went to the military exhibition to study noses, says a London letter to the New York Herald and then made an exam ination of the old pensioners in Chelsea.
 Every one of them nearly had the prominent part of the nose at the top" she said. When the nose comes bold lv out at that part it is the sign of an aggressive spirit. When it projects more midway it shows disposition to resent attack or defend friends, but without that spontaneous impulse to combat which you find in the real fight CT and which is conspicuous in all the portraits of the distinguished generals or soldiers which one secs.
 You can almost tell persons character from the nose alone, Nshe re- marked "All great men-have great noses. The Greek nose, which has no protubcrance, but is straight, argues great senses of aesthetics, of beauty, but no character and no power of con tcntion.
 Large nostrils show courage. Peo- ple of fearless disposition breathe fully and freely. All the firrcer animals have dilated nostrils. The dropping nostrils show hiStrionic talent. If the nose also droops it denotes tragic power, and if only the nostrils the capacity is marked for the interpreta- ton of comedy.
 "Whcrc the nose is thin at the bridge it shows generosity, while nose that is thick at the bridge argues acquisitivc- ness. When it is 'tip-tilted like the petal of a flower the person is inquis- tive. A projecting nose argues dis position to investigate. It is ahead of ,hc person, as it were, and wants to scent out things"
