A SpiFitualistic Tricf.

Sane tire ago 1T a spiritralistic
seance-the genuine article-a fiery
band was secu overhead in the dark
ness, rushing from end to end of the
room with Incredible sxiftness, now
high, now low, ana occasionally shifting
people on the cheek with the cold,
clamny contact of corpse. In spite Of
the Mediums stringent injunctions that
no one should move, a gentleman
clutched the awful apparition as it
swept past him, and, regardless of pro-
testations snd threats, refused to let it
go until the lights we're turned up. The
messenger from the other world proved
to be nothing more supernatural than
dirty white kid glove, rubbed With
phosphorus and stuffed with wet tow:
this, at the end of thin line, vas sus-
pended from a fishing-rod which could
be reduced telescopically to . length
convenient for the pocket. Thus the
medium could cause all manner of I'D.

THIS old and pertinent question is
suggested by the curious stories
which come across the ocean concern.
ing the danger of infection from
products shipped from ports where
cholera has been raging. For in
stance, an English importer of pota-
toes from Hamburg died of cholera
after eating some Of his own mer-
chandise, and we are therefore eau
toned against all Hamburg food
products. But an English physician
OF an adventurous turn had some of
the real, old-fashioned, unadulter-
ated cholera germ sent to him from
Hamburg and absorbed it into his
system as an experiment.. He lives
and still enjoys tranquil digestion.
Now what are we expected to deduce
from his case, and-What is Truth?

Memory Under Excitement,

Excitement frequently produces Gu
rious effects upon the memory. Thus
. corn-ship, during heavy gale, hoisted
. signal of distress, and the officers and
crew with much difficulty we're rescued
by craft which came to their relief.
In lawsuit to recover the insurance,
oil who had been on board testified that
the vessel was breaking up when they
abandoned her, and that they observed
the corn being washed out between the
disjointed planks. After o verdict
against the insurance company, the
vessel was boarded and brought into
port with both vessel and cargo in a
perfectly sound condition. Undoubtedly
the testimony had been honestly given.
In Boston, while the Chickering
piano establishment on Washington
street was being destroyed by fire some
years ago, lady who was boarding in
the Adams House, opposite, with her
three children, became greatly alarmed.
She chung frantically to her offspring
and wrung her hands in agony for the
safety Of the fourth. Her fellow
boarders, having never observed but
the three, inquired whether the missing
one was boy or girl. With very great
embarrassment she acknowledged that
she could not tell.
30 also excitement prevents some
people from calling to mind things that
appertain to their daily routine of duty.
Thus, when a certain cotton-mill in
Massachusetts, was on fire, the man who
had had charge of the fire apparatus
for fifteen years, and had continuously
and operated the appliances,
was SO greatly excited by the response
bility Of his position that he could not
call to mind where the hydrants and
valves were located.
A young sportsman, who had chased
only small game, went on a deer hunt.
He was SO astonished and excited to
have fine buck bounce by him at easy
range that he pointed his well-loaded
rife toward the deer and cried out
1Bang!" like child.

THERE is nothing slow about the
methods of the Philadelphia Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty TO
Animals. Lately lady was fined in
that city for having her horses tail
locked, and the man who performed
the operation is also to be arrested.
This action should be legally made a
crime everywhere; and, IL it had its
appropriate punishment, the penalty
would be Punishment to a. penal

great many persons suffer from inability
to sleep. This is especially the case if they
have taken a slight cold, they cough, roll
toss and tumble, and wish that it were day,
and fret and fume and work themselves into
state of evaporation. On arising in the
morning they are nervous and out of sorts.
When you take cold, do not delay mo-
ment. There is no necessity for you to suf-
fer with it. Get bottle of Reds German
Cough and Kidney Cure and take it freely
before going to bed. While it contains no
opiates or narcotics, it Will quiet you, stop
your cough and enable you to enjoy sound
and refreshing sleep. If you wake at night,
take another dose. You NAV take the con-
tents of an entire bottle without the slightest

SECRETARY TRACY has issued ar
order concerning the employment OF
pilots on United States naval vessels,
which will relieve the commanders OF
such vessels of much anxiety, and
save many thousands of dollars to
the Government. He has revoked
the old order with respect to the en-
plOyment Of pilots, which was SO
worded that it implicitly cast a re-
proach upon an officer who did not
pilot his own ship into port, and has
substituted for it the direction that
commanding officers will employ
pilots whenever, in their Judgment.
such employment is necessary" The
Government compels merchant YES
sells entering an American port to
take a pilot, and it is folly to expect
that naval officers should have more
extensive practical knowledge OF the
rivers and harbors of the world than
merchant captains, who are constant
ly On sea duty, and engaged in sail
ing vessels from one port to another.
The former may, and doubtless do,
have greater theoretical knowledge
than the majority Of officers in the
merchant marine, but to be able to
pilot vessel safely over the shoals
and reefs which may exist at the en-
trance OF a harbor requires an amount
OF practical experience which it is
impossible, i'm many instances, for
naval officers to acquire. Under the
old order, accidents frequently hap
pened to naval vessels when entering
the ports Of the world, involving the
expenditure in repairs of many thou
sands of dollars. These accidents
cast stigma upon the service. and
frequently brought undeserved re-
proach upon meritorious officers.
The officers either had to pilot their
own vessels, when they had not an
adequate knowledge of the harbor
which they were entering, or subject
themselves to unpleasant criticism at
headquarters: and it is easy to infer,
from the impulses of human nature,
which horn Of the dilemma an ambi-
tious and hiGh-spirited officer would
seize.
