an Uncanny Experience.

Wednesday night while returning home
from the theater, member of the legal fra
ternity was treated TO 4 spectacle more
weird and uHcanny than any ever yet pre-
scented on Greenwal's proScenium. The
clock hands had almost indicated the time
when church yards are supposed to gap,
and and all things of the earth earthly as
sumo spectral guiSe, when proceeding
at brisk walk along East Weatherford
street he fancied his ears caught the sound
of moaning, muttering voice as though
some one were in great agony. Pausing TO
listen, and straiuing his eyes to discover the
object, whatever ii might be, from which
the uncOuth monotone emanated, he stood
still, very still, awaiting developments.
His vigil was rewarded, and all doubts as
to the fidelity of his hearing speedily put to
fight, for emerging from the shadows of
Crump street, where it intersects with
East WeatherfOrd, appeared an almost nude
figure Of a man clad in nothing but his I'M
dergarmehts, destitute of shoes or head
gear Barefoot in this garb the creature
would move along at q shutting gait, stop
for an instant, then retrace his steps, re-
verse and start again in his original direc-
ton; ali the time uttering noises that could
scarcely be called articulate yet eerie
enough TO make strange sensations
run up and down the spinal column of MS
mute and solitary observer. it was a noe
turnal, but not the kind written Of by
Chopin and Leybach, and it is safe to assert
that the behOlder's courage varied all along
the gamut and alternated in various de-
grees from the andaute OF curiosity to the
allegro of precaution- The former at last
dominated, and following the wretched be-
ing who continued to make the most fantas-
tic gestures and to jerk his head until de-
capltatlOn was threatened, the conclusion
was reached that he was either Il lunatic
somnambulist or dipsomanac. Efforts were
made to find telephone TO communicate
with the police station, but without avail,
as none could be found in that vicinity. The
object crossed over to East Relknap street,
still Numbering to himself, and disap-
peared in the thick darkness.

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 26.-It was an
nounced to-day that the government has
abandoned its intention of supporting the
projected national industrial and artistic
exposition. This, of course. means. that no
exhibition will be held. The reason
given for this action on the part
of the government is that the
financial position of the country
makes it inexpedient for the authorities to
make the necessary outlay to render the
exhibition a success. 1t was intended to
hold the exhibition at Odessa in 1893 on the
occasion of the Tooth anniversary of the
foundation of that city.
