Occasionally very nervous man will
make q public exhibition of himself.
Such an instance occurred in Nassau
street restaurant Friday noon. A gen.
tlemanly appearing man was observed
by one or two patrons Of the place to
leave his table abruptly, hasten to the
cashiers desk, pay his bill and to almost
run out of the restaurant. Beyond in
dulging in the reflection that it was
pretty warm weather to travel under
such full head of steam, the observers
paid no attention to the mans behavior
at the time After lapse of eight or ten
minutes, however, the same man came
back into the restaurant breathless and
perspiring.
Hufriedly scanning the occupants Of
the room, his eye rested upon well
dressed boy about ten years old who was
giving his undivided attention to a huge
section of watermelon. The nervous
man pounced upon the boy and ex-
claimed half apologetically: "Why,
Tom, | forgot all about you and came
very near going up town without you.
Were you frightened"
mot bit, uncle!" responded the Lad
cheerfully, "lfelt sure you would come
back, SO | ordered another piece oi
watermelon, which you can pay for.
The nervous man fidgeted about unit
the boy finished his melon, and then ht
would have gone away without paying
for it had not the boy reminded him in {
high soprano voice that he owed the res

A Strange Birthmark.

A curious story comes from Salt Lake
City which is attracting much comment
from friends and acquaintance of
Policeman Charles F. Wanless, shot and
killed by Joseph A. Barnes, Sept. Is,
1890, and may furnish medical men
another subject for discussion. Barnes
was having quarrel with his wife,
which the officer attempted to stop.
Barnes fired. and the bullet passed
through Wanless' heart, leaving jag
ged bullet hole in the breast.
A married sister of the dead officer
was telegraphed and came to the funer.
al from her home in Salt Lake. She
was much affected by the tragedy, and
took the loss of her brother to heart. Ir
q short time she returned home. About
three months ago, as the report is heard
here by friends Of the dead officer, hii
sister gave birth to boy perfectly
formed, but with red birthmark ovel

but from the way In which light falls upon
the book. Provided the open page receives
the light, and at the same time the eyes
are shielded from the direct harsh rays,
reading can be INDUCED in to any extent
when the body is in the recumbent posture.

| improper illumination Of the printed sur
face; as, when persons read in bed from a
distant gas jet, which throws the light on
the back of the book, and necessarily into
the eyes of the reader. while the page pc
rused is in shadow. If the gaslight in
the center OF the room or at the bureau is
| good and the reader reverses the pillow to
| the foot of the bed, so as to have the light
fall on the open book, no more harm can
come to the eye from the recumbent pos
ture than from reading at a table with the
| light overhead.
"The popular saying OF our grandmoth
ers that reading lying down was injurious
originated at time when artificial light
was proverbially Indifferent, and when the

MoItke,s Literary Rens.==.

The quantity of the writings of the
late Marshal Won Moltke is unexpected
ly large. A portion of the papers is of
purely military interest. It consists of
reports and strategical observations on
the campaigns in which Moltke com
manded. These are to be issued by
Messrs. Mittler s. Son, of Berlin, and
English editions will be published by
Messrs. Osgood, of London. Bnt the
late marshal also left sort Of autobiog-
raphy, comprising twenty-nine diaries,
which cover almost the whole of his
military career, and are replete with
notes on all the events in which the
great soldier was in way mixed up.
These diaries give vivid illustration of
Moltke's character, and were originally in
tended for the perusal of his family only.
But it has been decided to publish them,
and they are to appear first as serials in
a German periodical and in an English
illustrated journal Afterward they will
be issued in book form.-London Times.

The vase Of peacock feathers gay
They seem 10 bend from either hand
To gaze within its depths all day.
They gaze and gaze-but cannot seei
The FURNISHED bronze, the peacock blues,
The shaded emeralds and browns
Naught does the careful mirror lose.
Those from the mirror gazing back,
II anything more charming seem;
More wonderful the feathery bronze.
The blue and emerald iris gleam.
And yet they never, never know
II is themselves so pictured there;
They gaze, but cannot understand
That it is they who are so fair.
Poor, pretty thingsl I'd rather be
A little, just little, plain,
And know just what really am,
Even with a conscious pang of pain.
I'd rather see, and understand,
And suffer-in deep passion whirled-
Than be as fair and calm as they,
With no sensation in the world.

The Swiss Celebration aid William Tell.
Switzerland has been lately eelebrat-
ing in the canton of Sehwytz the sixth
centenary of its independence as a ua-
ton, and on the 10Th Of August the city
of Berne celebrated the seven hundredth
anniversary of the foundation of the
town This is an antiquity which reaches
beyond the legendary epoch, for Berne
was founded in 1191, and the famous
hunter of Uri is said to have flourished
in 1907, and to have been a member of
the League of the Three Cantons-U Uri
Schwytz and Unterwalden-which final
ly drove the Austrians from the Alps.
But the Tell legend, like so many of
the old and new historic tales, is now
generally abandoned 1t was observed
that the old Swiss chroniclers did not
mention the story, and its first full state
ment did not occur until the middle of
the Sixteenth century. This covered it
with certain suspicion, which has
gradually developed with the demonstra-
ton that the Tell tale" is one of the
legends common to the Aryan people.
and is found in its chief elements in the
Persian, lcelandic, Danish and English
poetry, tradition, saga and ballad.
II ia none the less an inspiring and
symb bolic tale of heroism, and the same
tendency of history to legend is curl
ously illustrated in this country by the
story Of the mysterious white haired
warrior who suddenly appeared in Had
ley during an Indian attack upon the
village in King Phillips war and led
the villagers to victory. Mr.. George
Sheldon, OF Deerield, Mass, in a paper
published few years since, traced the
story to foot note in Hutchinson's his
tory referring to legend in Governor
Leverett's family But, examining dates
he discredits the story Yet the figure
Of the regicide cannot be dislodged from

The tack Of the Rainier Avenue Elec
Eic railway has been completed down
Washington street a. far as Third, and
ears are now regularly running to
Eighth The compensation weights for
taking the cars up the steep incline be
tween Fifth and Eighth streets are IN
place. Upon trial the contrivance has
worked successfully. and cars will be
running up and down in few days.
The arrangement is a very ingenious
one. The regular track is standard
gauge; inside Of it and two or three feet
below the street level is a second track
Of two feet gauge. On this runs truck
loaded with lead so as to weigh between
five and six tons This lower track is
covered over and nothing Of it is seen
from the street. When the truck is at
the bottom of the hill a cable to which
1t is attached runs on pulleys to the top,
and there turns over big concealed
wheel out to the side Of the fack
A car coming down the hill takes the
end of the cable, and the weight Of the
descending car, together with the cleo
trio power, draws the heavy truck un-
derneath up the 16i per cent. grade to
the top of the hill When the car re-
turns the truck is at the top of the hill.
As soon as the car is attached to the end
of the cable, then at the bottom, the
truck is released. and its weight as il
runs down draws the car up. The cable
pulled out at the top Of the hill as the
car comes down runs in a narrow slot
Just inside of the track on the north side
Of the street. Seattle Post Intelligencer
