vessels That Are oftenest Wrecked.

After making proper allowance for
the larger number Of vessels engaged in
certain kinds OF trade it is still evident
that there is an excessive number of
wrecks corresponding to certain classes
OF cargoes. Coal vessels are the most
exposed to danger, then ships in ballast
and then ships that are lumber laden
The cause Of so many disasters to lum-
ber laden vessels Is undoubtedly the
venerable age and decrepit character of
the craft SO employed. With steamers
grain, coal and cotton are the most dan
gerous cargoes because Of their iabil-
ity to take fire. Providence Journal

He Makes Cyclones.

Professor Douglass has succeeded IL
manufacturing miniature cyclones and
tornadoes by means of electricity, thus
proving the electrical character Of the
''prairie t~errors." In carrying out his
plans he suspended a large copper plate
by silken threads and charged it from a
battery. He then used a%rsenious acid
gas, whereupon the combination of gas
and electricity could be seen hanging
from the under side of the plate in the
form of a perfect funnel shaped cyclone
cloud. When everything was ready
the professor swung the plate and the
miniature cyclone to and fro across a
table Uttered with matches, pieces Of
paper, pens, pencils, etc. The lighter
objects were instantly sucked up, the
heavier scattered in all directions. The
effects were exactly those of destructive
cyclones.
These curious experiments explain cy-
clonic phenomena. Low clouds become
charged with electricity, descend and
form a connection with the earth. Then
a violent electrical commotion ensues,
finally settling into a whirl which con-
tinues until an electric equilibrium is
established.-St. Louis Republic.

Digestibility of Foods.

Calls foot jelly, tripe and rice are the
articles of food most easily digested, the
time required for the first being only
thirty minutes, and for the other two
one hour each. Among. the fish the
short fiber of tie whiting, 1.-the chicken
of the sea-" makes it easily digestible.
But the foods that are most easily
digested are not always the most
nutritious. Thus rice, which is more
extensively used as an article of food
than anything else, forming as it does
the principal diet of a third of the
human race, is not nearly SO nutritious
as wheat or some other grains, though
it is far more easily digested than they
more than nine-tenths of its substance
consists of starch and water, and it con-
sequently forms more fat than muscle.
Digestion is rather hindered by care and
worry or i'll health. The process usually
occupies from two to three hours

BEVERLEY BELLS.

Hark! Hark!
Beverley Bells arc ringing,
Are ringing DER the lea,
Their clear tones fill the twilight chill
With changing melody.
There's a white face at a window,
There's q std heart in the town;
Is that a bride by the gray fireside,
Clad in a wedding gown?
Ring, Bells of Beverley,
Ring on as We rang then;
There is no mirth in Heaven or earth.
No truth in the hearts of men!
Hank! Hark
Beverley Bells are ringing.
Ger twilit square and street;
Twas years ago they once rang so,
And Oh, the dream was sweet!
He is not dead, but faithless-
She donned her gown in vain;
Though her heart may break for his false
sake,
He will not come again!
Ring, Bells of Beverley,
Ring on as we rang then;
There is no mirth in heaven or earth,
No truth in the hearts of men!
Hush! Hush.
Beverley Bells are dying
Upon the still night air;
There's a figure at the threshold,
There's a football on the stair,
Regretting, grieving, yearning
For the love of days gone by,
He has come at last to redeem the past
Why makes she no reply?
Ring, Bells of Beverley,
For a broken spirit passed,
For a weary breast that has found Its
rest,
And a soul at peace at last!

Washington Named It.

The question, "Who named the
Empire State?" is often asked, but
seldom properly answered. Genera.
Washington is the man to whom that
and many other honors belong. III
his reply to the address of the com
mon council of New York city" the
great general said: II pray that
heaven bestow it's choicest blessings
on your city; that a well regulated
and beneficial commerce may enrich
your citizens and that your state Eat
present the seat of empire) may set
such examples of wisdom and lib
crafty as shall have a tendency to
strengthen and give a permanency
to the Union at home and credit and
responsibility abroad"

Wanted His Fiction Doctor.

The novelist, seated at his work
table, the dramatic writer imagining
the play which is to attract and stir
the public, is inevitably constrained
to a sort of auto-suggestion. They
must really see their characters live
and act, and, what is more, they see
life as their heroes see it. There can
be no really engrossing creation
without this fusion of created and
creator. Balzac, dying, sent them to
look for DR.. Bixion, the great phys
ician of the Coincide Humane
"Only Bixion can save mel If Bixion
does not come, if they do not find
Bixion, 1 am lost!" Thus was life at
tached to his dream.-Jules Clarette
in North American Review.

NINE. DERLINE.

Prince Agenor was literally beside
himself on Friday, April 10, 1889, at the
opera during the second act Of ''Sigurd."
The prince hurried from box to box, and
his enthusiasm kept growing.
"That blond! All! That blond! She's
an ideal, that blond! Look at that blond!
Do you know that blond?'
At last he found Palmer, the banker.
"The name, the name of that blond
in the Sainte-M esmes box"
"Mme. Derline."
ais there a M. Derline?
"Assuredly-a notary-my notary
the Sainte- Mesmes' notary. And if you
you want to see Nine. Derline closer
come to my house to the ball next Thurs
day. She will be there"
After the opera, when people were go
ing out, the prince took a position at the
foot Of the grand staircase. He had en-
trapped two of his friends.
Come" he said to them, 81 want to
show you the most beautiful woman in
Paris"
Just as he said that there was stand
ing within w PAGES OF tne prince au
alert young man attached to n Of the
morning newspapers, a newspaper widely
read. This young man had a sharp ear.
He caught as it flew the expression of
Prince Agenor, whose high position in
society he knew. He managed to avoid
meeting the prince, but when Nine. Der
line was about to pass the young re-
porter was clever enough to overhear,
without losing a single word, the con-
versation of the three brilliant noble
men.
Nine. Derline arose the next morning
at 8 o'clock. Her maid came in, placed
a salver on a little table, lit a big fire in
the open CRATE and withdrew. There
were on the salver a cup Of chocolate
and a newspaper-the same thing every
morning.
Nine. Derline touched the rim of the
cup to her lips and burned herself. So
she had Il wait awhile. She put down
the cup, tooi the paper, unfolded it, and
rapidly, witt a look, ran through the
six columns on the first page. At the
hnttom. at the very bottom Of the sixth
