Sounds at Sea.

1t is well-established fact that the
widespread sails of ship when rendered
concave by gentle breeze are most ex-
cellent conductors of sound. The cele-
brated Dr. Arnott relates the following
circumstance as a practical proof of this
assertion:-A ship was once sailing along
the coast of Brazil far out of sight of
land. Suddenly several of the crew
while walking along the deck noticed that
when passing and repassing particular
spot they always heard with great dis
tinctness the sound of bells Ginning
sweet music, as though being rung but a
short distance away. Dumbfounded by
this phenomenon they quickly communi-
Gated the discovery to their mates, but
none of them were able to solve the enig-
ma as to the origin of those seemingly
mysterious sounds.
Several months afterward, upon re-
turning to Brazil, some of the listeners
determined to satisfy their curiosity.
Accordingly they mentioned the circum-
stance to their friends, and were informed
that at the time when the sounds were
heard the bells in the cathedral of St.
Salvador, on the coast had been ringing
to celebrate feast held in honor of one
of the saints. Their sound, wonderful to
relate, favored by a gentle, steady
breeze, had travelled distance of upward
of one hundred miles over the smooth
water and had been brought to focus by
the sails at the particular locality in
which the sweet sounds were first heard
This is but one of several instances of
similar kind, trustworthy authorities
claiming that it has often happened un-
der somewhat similar circumstances

A Drummer i'm a Dilemma.

1t appears that Western drummer
was hidden to that festivity known as a
lawn party and the tale further showeth
that among the refreshments provided on
that festive occasion were some cherries
The drummer was conscious that there
were depths of social etiquette which he
had never been able TO sound, and as he
was after all fellow of sense, with the
American adaptability, and did not wish
to do that which was not according to
the best usage, he bethought him that it
were we'll to watch those about him with
a view to getting clews. In the matter
of the cherries he was especially troubled,
as he did not know in the least what was
the proper method of disposing of the
stones when once the fruit had passed
his lips. He decided, therefore, that be-
fore he attempted to eat any of the
luscious looking fruit he would wait and
see what his young and beautiful hostess
did in this delicate manner.
81 watched her," he goes on to say,
"and soon had the pleasure of seeing her
slip a cherry between her lips, redder
than the fruit itself. took up one from
my own plate, preparing to eat it as soon
as | saw how she disposed of the stone; ;
but when she took the stone between her
fingers and snapped it at her grand
mother found myself quite as much at
a loss as before-for, you see, had no

supposed that the fan, which occupies
such conspicuous place in the toilet of
every Spanish woman, would arrive at
its greatest degree of elegance and per.
fection in that codntry. Such, however,
is not the case. The Spanish product is

A CITY OF PALACES.
A Glance at London in the Middle
Ages.

Ages.
You have now to learn, what believe
no one has yet pointed out, that if Lon
don could be called city of churches, it
was much more a city of palaces. There
were, in fact, in London itself more pal
aces than in Verona and Florence and
Venice and Genoa all together. There
was not, it is true, line of marble pa
lazzi along the banks of Grand Ca.
nal; there was no Piazza della Signoria,
no Piazza DELI Erbe, to show these build
ings. They were scattered about all
over the city; they were built without
regard to general effect, and with no
idea of decoration or picturesqueness;
they lay hidden in the labyrinthine
streets; the warehouses stood beside and
between them; the common people dwelt
in narrow courts around them; thew
faced each other on opposite sides Of
the lanes.
These palaces belonged to the great
mobiles and were their town houses; they
were capacious enough to accommodate
the whole of Barons retinue, consist
ing sometimes of four, six, or even eight
hundred men. Let us remark that the
continual presence of these lords and
those following did much more for the
city than merely to add to its splendor
by the erecting of great houses. BY
their presence they kept the place from
becoming merely a trading centre or an
aggregate OF merchants; they kept the
citizens in touch with the rest of the
kingdom; they made the people of Lon
don understand that they belonged to
the realm of England. When Warwick.
the Kingmaker, rode through the streets
to his town house, followed by five hun
dred retaners in his livery; when King
Edward lV. brought wife and children to
the city and rode out to fight for his
crown; when royal tournament was
held in Chepe-the Queen and her ladies
looking on-even the boys understood
that there was more in the world than
mere buying and selling, importing and
exporting; that everything must not be
measured by profit; that they were
traders, indeed, and yet subjects of an
ancient crown; that their own prosperity
stood or fell with the well-doing of the
country. This it was which made the
Londoners ardent politicians from very
early times; they knew the party leaders;
they felt bound to take side; and they
quickly perceived that their own side
always won, which gratified their pride.
In word, the presence in their midst of
king and mobiles made them look beyond
their walls. London was never Ghent;
nor was it a Venice. 1t was never Lon
don for itself against the world, but
always London for England first and for
its own interests next Harper's Maya
zine.

A Brakeman's Rapid Ride.

Frank Bisbee, brakeman on the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad,
took the fastest ride he will probably
take in this world the other afternoon.
He rode on the top of freight car from
Haydenville, Mass, to Hospital Hill,
Northampton, distance of six miles, in
five minutes. The car was clicked"
down the line, but went too far and
struck the down grade. Bisbee put on
the brake, but it did not hold and the car
dashed over the rails at frightful speed.
At one time, when the car had not
reached its fastest rate, the express on
the other line ran by its side for a short
distance, but the car, with its solitary
passenger, soon left it behind and did not
slack up until near Florence, where there
is slight up grade, and Bisbee, as he
neared it, prayed that it would stop his
dangerous ride.
But up the hill went the runaway and
then down the other side, where there is
a down grade of sixty feet to the mile as
far as Northampton. The people stand
ing at the depot held their breath and
opened their eyes with surprise as the
car, now going at the rate of more than
mile minute, ran by. Bsbee, who
was standing and clinging to the brake
wheel, waved his hand to his brother, who
is baggagemaster at the canal depot, and
who, as he saw the terrible peril his bro
ther was in, dropped his baggage and
started down the track after the car. A
mile further was Hospital Hill, and the
aagitated baggagemaster breathed more
freely as he saw the runaway begin to
slack up and in few moments come to a
standstll, while his brother quickly de-
scended from the roof unharmed. II New

OVER THE RANCE.
Over the range

Over the range
Inc rifted range, where the purple and gold
Vi the high hills lift like picture unrolled-
We pitch our tents.
BY the groves of the gnomes, by far-voiced
streams,
That cry like lost Pan in our lotus dreams;
Where our dreamdulled ears catch the sor-
rowlul sigh,
The piteous plant of the pines as we lie
In their shadows dense.
Over the range
Bohemia blest; while the suns sandaled
feet
Still circle afar in their fiery beat
Through dust and heat
By the marts of men. Here the gold and
blue;
And the star-strewn ways are our ways, and
you
And will forget tolls pltess rods;
Aye, forget, while we drink the wine of the
gods,
For the grapes are sweet.
Over the range
In peak-sentlneled parks, by dim-aised
groves,
We lay down our lives and lift up lost
loves,
dear heartsease
We kiss them swift, for these dreams are
brief
As the breeze that fondles the falling leaf
They vanish away as the red rivers run
Thro tangled hills to the fugitive sun
By the sunset seas.
Over the range
The purpling peaks-when our dole is done;
Our locks grown gray meath an olden sun
LIES love grown strange.
We will close the book that is read, and
hence,
With holy hands, we will pitch white tents
By shimmering streams on a shadowy shore

Island Customs.

Natives of the Maldive Islands hold to
certain ways of domestic life that to us
seem decidedly unsociable. To eat alone
insures their highest idea of happiness;
TO retire into the most secluded corner of
their homes, to draw down the cloths
serving us blinds, that there be no loop
mole through which an outsider might
peer in, is essential to their pleasure
while refreshing the inner man. One
writer suggests that such caution may

about; possibly, says another, lest incan-

some wildwood tramp, rites of hospitality
be demanded at their hands. In the
latter case the interloper would probably
be an inferior, and to break bread or eat
salt with any one beneath the host in
rank, riches, or dignity is among these
peculiar people an utter impossibility.
Philippine Islanders are quite the re-
verse; sociability is their very life, and
hearty companionship at meai-times the
height of pleasure; if no person is near,
search will be made in haste, for, how
ever hungry the savage may be, he will
not eat alone

two or three yards from each other, turn
their backs, and in such modest fashion
eat, each from his own basket, in pro-

Spanish Fans.

The folding fan was introduced in
Franco by Catherine de Medicis, and
under Louis XIV. the manufacture be-
came great industry. Large guam
titles of costly fans are produced in Paris

thin yet tough preparation of kid skin,
satin, gauze, tulle, crepe or parchment,
