horses from falling down. In fact this is q
city government which seems to stop at no
expense where the public convenience, COM
fort and health are copcerned-except in
one detail. That is, the naming of the
streets and the numbering of the houses
Sometimes the name of street will change
in the middle of block. You Will not find
1t out till you get to the next corner and
discover the new name ON the wall, and of
course you don't know just when the change
happened.
Chaos in Numbering the Houses.
The names are plainly marked on the cor
ners-on all the corners-there are no ex-
ceptions But the numbering of the houses
there has never been anything like it
since original chaos. 1t is not possible that
it was done by this wise city government.
At first one thinks it was done by an idiot;
but there is too much variety about it for
that; an idiot could not think of so many
different ways of making confusion and
propagating blasphemy. The numbers run
up one side of the street and down the
other. That Is endurable, but the rest isn't.
They often use one number for three or
four houses, and sometimes they put the
number only on one of the houses and let
you guess at the others. Sometimes they
put number on a house., for instance
then put IA, 4b, &c, on the succeeding
houses, and one becomes old and decrepit
before he finally arrives at g. A result of
this systemless system is that when you are
at No. 1 in a street you haven't any idea
how far it may be to No. $50; it may be

When the porter's wife (she used to an

those days, for the wish was father to the
thought, an immediate vision of sittera
Sitters my visitors in this case proved to be;

However, there was nothing at first to in

high and very straight, with mustache
slightly grizzled and a dark gray walking
coat admirably fitted, both of which noted

ing. 1t was truth of which had for some
time been conscious that figure with
good deal of frontage was, as one might say,
almost never public institution. A glance
at the lady helped to remind me of this
paradoxical law; she also looked too dis
tinguished to be a personality" Moreover,
one would scarcely come across two varia-
tions together.
Neither of the pair spoke immediately

The boys seemed lost to everything, un-

Mrs. Stoves Story Responsible for q Popular
Mistake as to Slave Hunting.
Frank Leslie's Weekly.]
1t is to ''Uncle Toms Cabin" that we owe
our impressions of the man-hunting blood
hound. I have been to see some of these
realistic plays, but I have never yet seen a
genuine bloodhound so employed. 1t would
not do. To begin with, the genuine blood
hound was never used in the South to hunt
fugitive slaves or criminals. In the second
place. there were very few, if any, blood
hounds in the South until within the past
three or four years. In the third place, tho
genuine bloodhound is quiet, docile, amia-
BILE, and dignifed animal, totally untitled to
inspire the feeling of horror and awe neces-
sary to the dramatic representation of the
play. And in the fourth place, the dog ac-
tually used in the South for tracking men is
and has always been nothing else than
small fox-hound trained to follow man s
trail.
He would not do to put on the stage, for
in him every man who has lived in the
country would recognize an old and harm
less friend with whom in boyhood he has
chased rabbits and foxes and other such
game. It was needed, therefore, for the
purposes of the drama to get dog which
should look dangerous and present forbid
ding front to the audience. To get such q
dog was easy enough. The large dog some
times called the Siberian bloodhound, the
boar-hound, ETC., etc. but only properly
known as the Great Dane, answered the
purpose we'll enough.

in Berlin; I have seen six reported in a
single day. There is always deal of
learned and laborious arguing and cipher
ing going on as to the cause of this state of
things. If they will set to work and num-
Der their houses in rational way, perhaps
they will find out what was the matter
More than a month ago Berlin began to
prepare to celebrate Prof Virchow's seven
tieth birthday. When the birthday arrived,
the middle of October, it seemed to me that
all the world of science arrived with it;
deputation after deputation came, bringing
the homage and reverence of far cities and
centers OF learning; and during the whole of
a long day the hero of it sat and received
such witness of his greatness as has seldom
been vouchsafed to any man in any walk of
lite in any time, ancient or modern. These
demonstrations were continued in one form
or another day after day, and were present.
ly merged in similar demonstrations to his
twin in science and achievement, Prof
Helmholtz, whose SEVENTEEN birthday is
separated from Virchow's by only about
three weeks; SO near as this did these two ex-
traordinary men come to being born to-
gether. Two such births have seldom sig
nalized single year in human history.
Tremendously Big Dinner.
But perhaps the final and closing demon.
stration was peculiarly grateful to them.
This was commers given in their honor
the other night by 1000 students. It was
held in q huge hall, very long and very
lofty, which had five galleries, far above
everybody's head, which were crowded with
ladies-4OO or 500, 1 judged. 1t was BEAU
tifully decorated with clustered flags and
various ornamental devices, and was bril-
liantly lighted. On the spacious floor of
this place were ranged in files >innumerable
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-04-03

tables, seating "a persons each, extending
from one end of the great hall clear to the
other and with narrow aisles between the
files In the center on one side was high
sand tastefuily decorated platform, 20 or 80
feet long, with a long table or, it, behind
which sat the half dozen chiefs of the choir
of the commers in the rich medieval cos
tunes of as many different college corps.
Behind these youths band of musicians
was concealed. On the floor directly in
front of this platform were half dozen
tables, which were distinguished from the
outlying continent of tables by being COW
cred instead of left naked Of these the
central table was reserved for the two
heroes of the occasion and 20 particularly
eminent professors of the Berlin Univer-
sity, and the other covered tables were for
the occupancy of hundred less distin-
guished professors.
was glad to be honored with place at
the table of the two heroes of the occasion,
although I was not really learned enough to
deserve it. Indeed there was a pleasant
strangeness in being in such company; to
be thus associated with % men who forget
more every day than 1 ever knew. Yet
there was nothing embarrassing about 1t, be-
cause loaded men and empty ones look
about alike. 1 knew that to that multitude
there I was professor. 1t required but
little art to catch the ways and attitudes of
those men and initiate them, and I had no
difficulty in looking as much like pro-
fessor as anybody there.

Profs. Virchow and Helmholtz and a dozen
guests of the special tables were ahead of
us, and 300 or 400 students. But people
were arriving in floods now, and within 15
minutes all but the special table were occu-
pied and the great house was crammed, the
aisles included. It was said that there were
1000 men present 1t was most animated
scene, there is no doubt about that; it was
a stupendous beehive. At each end of each
table stood corps student in the uniform
of his corps. These quaint costumes are of
brilliant colored silks and velvets, with
sometimes high plumed hat, sometimes q
broad Scotch cap, with great plume wound
about it, sometimes-oftenest-a little shall
low embroidered silk cap on the
tip of the crown like an inverted
saucer; sometimes the pantaloons are
snow white, sometimes of other colors;
the boots in all cases come up we'll above
the knee; and in all caees, also, white gaunt-
lets are worn. The sword is rapier with
a bowl-shaped guard for the hand, painted
in several colors. Each corps has a uniform
of its own, and all are of rich material, bril-
liant in color and exceedingly picturesque:

only six or eight blocks, it may be couple
of miles. Frederick street is long, and is
one of the great thoroughfares The other
day a man put up his money behind the as
sertion that there were more refreshment
places in that street than numbers on the
houses-and he won. There were 254 num-
bers and 257 retreshment places Yet, as I
have stated, it is long street.
But the worst feature of all this complex
business is that in Berlin the numbers do
not travel in any one direction; no, they
travel along until they get to 30 or go, per-
haps, then suddenly you find yourself up in
the hundreds-140, may be; the next will
be 139; then you perceive by that sign that
the numbers are now travelling toward you
from the opposite direction.
An Explanation of Berlin's Suicides.
They will keep that sort of insanity up as
long as you travel that street; every now
and then the numbers will turn and run the
other way. As rule there is an arrow un-
der the number, to show by the direction of
its flight which way the numbers are pro-
ceeding There are q good many suicides

Prof F. h. Geffcken, in the April Forum,

the Balkan peninsula, and in former times
this might have been possible, but at pres

these countries it is scarcely feasible. As

rapidly increasing, but neither Servia nor

A Monkey Learning a New Tongue.

Having but little interest in white-face
monkey, who is very shy of me, 1 rarely
showed him the slightest attention until
within the past few weeks, when observed
him trying to utter the capuchin sound for
food. which always secured for Puck, a
capuchin monkey, banana or some nuts,
says R L. Garner in the Forum Seeing
that Puck was always rewarded for uttering
this sound, the little white-face began to
try it, and as soon as 1 discovered his
purpose began to reward him in the same
way, and have thus seen one step taken by
monkey in the mastery Of another tongue.
