KING FREDERlck's SWORD.

It Did Not Act as a Talisman to John
Brown.
When John Brown went to conquer
the south with twenty three men he
believed that the less he trusted arms
of flesh the more Jehovah might be
depended on to unsheath his sword,
writes Moncure D. Conway in the
Century. The only other sword
Brown considered worthy to be used
by the Almighty was that which Wash
ington was said to have received from
Frederick the Great. One of Browns
men (Cook) came as a spy to Bel Air,
and was Hospitality shown the Wash
ington relics for which he inquired.
Brown told Colonel Washington, after
taking him prisoner, that he wished to
get hold of the sword .because it had
been used by two successful generals. {"
The superstitution cost him dear. In
order to get the sword Brown de-
tached six of his men to go after it
five miles away. He thus lost half a
day and all chance of escape. Seven
teen lives were offered as on an altar
before the mythical sword.

Curious Way in Which a Rogue Monkey
Spoiled an Experiment.
OF that unpleasant trio, the scorpion,
centipede, and tarantula, the first is,
perhaps the most formidable. The
sting of the very large black species,
which is common about decaying
stumps:and hollow trees, is according
to a writer in Chambers Journal the
most agonizing pain known, judging
from its effect on the almost nerveless
Chinaman. A specimen was once
brought me which was covered-tail,
claws, and all-with young scorpions
about half an inch long in constant
motion. It seemed half dead, and,
wishing to see whether the native be-
lief is correct that scorpions are de-
voured by their young, I placed It in
an empty seidlitz powder box.
Unfortunately l was called away for
a few minutes, and on returning found
the box and its contents in the possess
sion of ..'Chelaka, or the scoundrel, "
a monkey so named from the singular
enormity of his crimes, who was crush
ing up the scorpion and progeny with
the relish of an excursionist over a
plate of shrimps.

CONSUMPTION CURED.

An old physician retired from prac-

an East India missionary the formula
of a simple vegetable remedy for the
speedy and permanent cure of con-
sumption, bronchitis, catarrh, asthma
and all throat and lung affections, also
a positive and radical cure for nervous
debility and all nervous complaints,
after having tested it's wonderful cura-
tive powers in thousands of cases, has
felt it his duty to make it known to his
suffering fellows. Actuated by this
motive and desire to relieve human
suffering, will send free of charge, to
all who desire it, thisrecipe, in French,
German or English, with full directions
for preparing and using. Sent by mail

Lo! the Poor Horse.

Probably the maddest race for life
that ever happened in San Francisco
was that of sleepy old nag whose
hitching strap in some way was caught
in the cable slot of street railway.
The animal was obliged to run as fast
as the rapid transit cable pulled him,
until the strap was cut in twain by
coming in contact with cross cable.
The horse was holding back so hard
that the reaction threw him on his
launches, and before he could recover
his equilibrium half a hundred citizens
were holding him down.

Story About . Russian Attacho and His
American Sweetheart.
Perhaps one Of the happiest Of the
long list Of marriages between Ameri-
can girls and foreigners is that OF the
eldest daughter of General Edward
Beale. How the wife OF Mr.. Bakhme-
tieff. Of Russia secretary OF legation
at Athens. Twelve O., thirteen years
ago. as an attachs OF the Russian lega-
>tion, the young foreigner met and at
once fell desperately in love with Ms.
Beale. The young people carried OF
their 1ovemaking under the cover Of
friendly darkness, in Lafayette square,
Washington.
One night the watchman went his
rounds as usual, says the Pittsburg
Dispatch, and thinking the square to
be empty. carefully locked the gates
and departed to his home. Uncon-
scious of this fact the lovers reused
from their absorbing conversation and
prepared to leave the square, Their
CONSERVATION at finding themselves i'm
prisoned was no wise improved by the
subsequent discovery that not soul
seemed to be STIRRING on the streets
who could como to their rescue.
There was no help for it. The only
way out OF the difficulty was to climb
the massive iron spike fence. With
great difficulty the young lady climbed
to the top, when to her horror, just as
her feet sought to secure q resting
place in the descent the gruff voice OF
policeman shouted menacingly in
their ears.
Rapidly giving directions in French
to Miss Beale to proceed with all speed
possible and run for home while he
engaged the intruder in conflict. Mr..
Bakhmetieff successfully tussled with
the fellow until. happy in the knowl-
edge that his instructions had been
carried out, he gave himself into the
custody of the officers, knowing that,
as a member of a foreign legation, he
would be liberated Immediately upon
arrival at headquarters.
