makes four more human beings Then,

AND Goodness Gracious, How Glad Every
body Was, to Be Sure!
An English clergyman, who had new
er before been of his tight little isl
end" was on his way to Spain After
q week on shipboard, he landed in Lis
bon. Till then, he says, he never ap-
preciated the feeling of freedom and
Joy SO generally attributed to Jack on
shore" He recalled a scene, says the
Chicago Journal, al which he had won
dered at the time. on the quay of the
repairing dock al Dover. Now he IN
nerstood what was then mystery.
"A large Norwegian enigrant ship,
damaged, had been towed in for repairs,
and beheld the delight of those home
" enigrants ss they were helped
down the ladder 20 the place where l
stood, and ssuntered up toward the
town They seemed too full of JOY 70 do
anything but laugh, and prove their
freedom BY stepping to this side and
that or walking down this street and
up that one.
The men were Of the poorest class
OF laborers, and with most Of them were
wives and children By permission I
went On board the vessel with two huge
bags Of biscuits and sugar pluns for the
children-ab0ut ffty-and / remember
the grace and courtesy Of the poor
mothers, with children in arms or az
their sides, in never pushing forward
TO get the little offerings for their dar-
1ingS
Il remember, too, the dark, close
PACKED quarters, and the very savorv
but rough cooking below decks, Of
which the poor unintelhgible people
always offered ne share. l remem-
Der, too, the fair, faxen hair, and the
dresses, shapeless, but girdled round the
waist, and the rudy cheeks of these
poor women
+-All this remember. But one thing
] can never forget, namely, the joy with
which, one and all, men. women and
children, they crowded down the steps
of the vessel. and streamed up to the
town, to the barracks, to the chief
streets, to the sea front, TO the country
around, only to look about to feel free,
70 pluck daisy, to throw stone
This was a joy to them-joy so
plainly expressed IN their smiles and
gestures, that one who saw could never
forget it And now, after nv short
seven DAYS on board steamer, I felt
nv own joy at putting foot on shore,
and I thought of and understood the
Joy of the Norwegian emigrants"

The exciting recital of fishing for
three deadly tarantulas with bit Of

TALKING HEADS OF BRASS.
Strange Creations of Old-Time wizards
and HAgfcinns.

Upon the authority Of several pas
sages in history we are lead TO believe
that famous wizards, mag;cians and
astrologers have constructed not less
than six brazen, human-shaped heads
that possessed al the faculties of
speech. The first Of these was the work
OF Monk Gerbert. who afterward be-
came pope with the title OF Sylvester II.
The head is said to have predicted that
Gerbert would be pope and that he
would not die until he had said mass IN
Jerusalem. After the first part Of the
prophecy had been fulfilled and he had
placed the papal tiara upon his head he
resolved 20 live forever by steering
clear of Jerusalem While saving mass
one day in a small church in a suburb
Of Rome Sylvester was taken with a
sudden rigor. Knowing that his end
was near, he asked the rector If the
church had any special name. Being
informed that i was popularity called
Jerusalem" he closed his eyes and died
within an hour.
The second "brazen speaking head"
was made By one Robert Grossetes.e,
an Italian bishop who resided IN Eng
land between the years II75 and 1923
The third Is said TO have been the r.
suit Of thirty years labor on the part
Of the astrologer. Albertus Maga1s,
who was born in the year 1865.

sition is anything but correct, and yet
he manages to do some very clever
work. Taking the old fights as a cri-
terion-I refer particularly to the draw
at Judson. Ind should say that Nc
Auliffe would stand q good show OF
winning If he cuts the pace at the OUT
set and goes in to finish rapidly. In
that fight at Judson Myers proved him
self coolheaded. He never once led

Why said the Cyclone" those
