The tender, budlil1e hopes of a Lewiston
youth who has been dreaming the first few
winks of loves young dream are crushed,
and he sometimes thinks that he never viii
recover, butwe think he will.
He has been keeping a young lady in
Raymond up nights a good deal lately, and
she has been reciprocatng the attachment.
The only party 10 TIC aasir who was not
warmly -and deeply in earnest was the
young lady's father, and for some reason
or other he didn't seem to warm up a bit
and didn't seem to pay much attention to
it one way or the other. The Lewiston
young man has been over there a good
deal, his disease of the heart keeping him
restless at home Now and then he has
hitched up the horse of his father-in-law-
never-tO-be and has taken his girl out to
drive in the sober moonlight, and by a jul
dicious care in getting the sleigh out noise
lessly he has finally learned how TO evade
suspicion and drive with one hand at the
same time
A large, mellow night came along and
stopped at that town very recently, and
the young man was carac0ling the old
mans horse over the hills gayly. Coming
back he committed a great error He tied
the horse with a slip moose. The horse did
not die. He was discovered before death
had claimed him for his own, but he was
almost moribund and the flash that had
erstwhile been in his eye had flashed out.
He was depressed beast.
The old gentleman made no charge Cor
the extra kerosene, coal and wood that had
been consumed in the front parlor, but he
says that young man withsuc danger
Gus familiarity with slipknots can't have
his girl, and the match is otf.-Lewiston

If African women are to be transported
to Granada to fifty adorn these ancient

vie with them for the right, for the Anda-
lusiau is far more beautiful gem, and
worthy Of being born in the shadow of the
Alhambra or the Aicazar
Her form is soft and flexible, the quint-
essence of the word 'pliantn applied to
her. She crouches in the smallest corner;
she robs the sharpest angle Of its sharp
nessby sliding stealthily around it; she
winds her pple.body through the narrow
est crevice. Her senses partake daintily Of
what may be offered to them. Her nose

chalice OF the rose; her lips sip but single
drop from the fiery malaga and reject the
rest.
Her most powerful sense, unsuitable, yet
held in check by her. aud holding others
within its wondrous ban, is her large,
beautiful eye In the midst OF the snowy
splendor Of her face this strange, black
flame is the confession Of the extremes
which unite in her breast Chicago Globe

Some extraordinary revelations have Just
been made at st. Petersburg as to the man
ner ia which certain frontier IortreSses re-
Gently constructed. and, as 10 was sup
posed, strengthened, have actually been
built. It appears that even in this perilous
field of enterprise the jerry builder has
been reaping rich harvest At two sep
arate fortresses his frauds have been oe-
tected. "A commission of revision on IN
snecfinr the walls Of the celebrated strong
hold Novo Georeievsh, formerly known as
Modlin. and situated between Warsaw and
the German frontier, found that the newly
constructed outer walls were not more
Substantial than those Of piece Of theat-
scenery.
A thin outer layer Of half bricks con
cealed a hopelessly rotten fabric composed
Of the veriest rubbish-gravel, brick dust,
sand and chalk--the whole being utterly
incapable Of withstanding cannonade by
guns Of the smallest caliber. These facts
having been reported 20 the minister OF
war, the chief constructor Of the fortress
was arrested aud tried by court martial,
but he escaped withso light penalty IS
dismissal from the service, it having been
proved that be suffered from painful af-
lection Of the eyes The chief constructor
Of the fortress OF Doubno, the other sJfone-
hold concerned, was not so fortunate. The
fortress was inspected by the Grand Duke
Nicholas shortly before his illness, and he
found the walls built SO contrary to the
rules Of military engineering that they
were incapable OF affording any real de-
Tense against modern engines Of war.
In accordance with the report which he
made TO the emperor on the subject, an
order was issued that the whole Of the
walls ia question should be rslzed TO their
foundations and rebuilt. The chief con-
structor solved the problem Of his own
punishment by blowing out his brains,
and all bis subordinates who were 10 any
degree responsible were sent to Siberia.
Every endeavor has, Of course, been made
to keep these occurrences from the knOwl-
edge Of the public, but the facts Of the case
have come to hand through a thoroughly
Trustworthy channel.-Leeds Mercury.

For several years the sun has been in a

great luminary has been passing through

of the spots themselves.
It takes about eleven years to complete
a sun spot cycle. though the intervals are
irregular Each cycle included q maxi

from 500 miles to $4,000 miles or more, and
they are often large enough to be visible

Forgeries are encouraged by the bad
practices that have grown up in the COM
mercial houses--the use Of stylographic
pens and aniline inks, Many large houses,
recognizing the lack of character in sig
nature written with a stylographic pen,
have discarded them altogether in signing
checks and papers Of similar Importance,
and other firms require documents to be
signed with steel or quill pen. A stlyo-
graphic signature is easily initiated, and
Wien it comes to identifying the genuine
signature 2 difficulty is met, arising from
the effect of the movement on the essential
Characteristic features. Aniline inks are
still more dangerous. because they can be
copied exactly by the use Of copying pads.

GruR Ben Butler.

Butler has great law practice, and
many irons in the fire besides-his bunt-
ing factory, his granite quarries, and so
on and so forth But much of his law
practice is made up of desperate cases,
such as those claims before the court Of
claims which no one else will undertake,
and ia which the compensation is all con-
tingent upon success. Besides, like other
men with many irons in heating, he can
not keep them all white hot and loses
every now and then on one of them.
Then, too, he is pne of the most generous
and charitable of men, He lives on a
scale which seems extravaganza to most
men, keeping up three or four establish
ments-one here, one in Lowell. one in
Boston, and so on-and treating all his
relatives and friends most generously in
all his dealings wifh thehsF
Rough and grun as he sometimes seems,

Chinese Music.

The musical art of a people who rep resent one-f1fth of the earth's popula- tion ought to be studied; if not for the sake of esthetic pleasure, at least in the interest of scientific knowledge. Yet there is scarcely a department in the history or philosophy of music concern ing which the information to be found in the books is so unsatisfactory as that of Chinese music. Even historian of the thoroughness and profundity of Ambros, after devoting many pages to an attempt to elucidate the Chinese theory, seems willing to believe the first traveller who sets down the modern practice of the art as nothing but crude, barbaric, unregulated noise. Crude, barbaric and noisy Chinese music cer- tainly is, but not unregulated.
 Even the little music which can be heard on any holiday in the Chinese quarter of New York will serve to dis close to discriminating ear that it is nothing if not methodical. The diff culty on the part of the historians has been that they have never come in contact with the Chinese, and there fore have had to depend on the de- scriptions of travellers and missionaries touching the practical side of the art. Correctly to apprehend music, how ever, requires special qualifications of education and natural gifts, and these have been possessed by so small a mi nority of those who have written about China that they are scarcely worth enumerating.-H.

A Wonderful Clock.

A marvellous piece of mechanism has recently been exhibited in Paris. It is an eight day clock, which chimes the quarters, plays sixteen tunes, playing three tunes every hour, or at any in terval required, by simply touching spring. The hands go as follows: One once a minute, one once an hour, one once week, one once a month and one once year. It shows the moons age, rising and setting of the sun, the time of high and low tide, besides show ing half ebb and half flood.
 A curious device represents the wa ter, showing ships at a high water tide as if they were in motion, and as it re- cedes, leaves them high and dry on the sands The clock shows the hour of the day, the day of the week, the day of the month and the month of the year. The mechanism is so arranged as to make its own provisions for long and short months. It also shows the signs of the zodiac, equation, and the difference between sun and railroad time for every day in the year.-St. Louis Republic.

Building by Night.

Buildings and other works are now constructed at such express speed that it becomes necessary for the workmen engaged to labor at night as well as during the day. Especially is this the case in London, where ground is valu- able, and where during building opera tions heavy rent is running and no return is coming in. The custom has rendered necessary some form of brill iant artificial light, and many ingenious lamps have been contrived which gen. orally owe their radiance to some form of cheap crude oil. which is forced under pressure into spray, or vapor- ized, and then ignited in a special form of burner.
 A new lamp of this description, called "the Comet" has recently been intro duced, and it embodies one or two new features. It consists of tank, above which is fixed on a standard the coal burner in which the oil is vaporized. The liquid is forced up to this level by means of an air pump attached to the tank. A light oil is used, as it has been found in other systems that those of a heavy description are apt to leave a heavy deposit of carbon in the connec- tions, and SO impede the action of the apparatus.
