How to Pronounce Les Miserables.

To he Editor of the DlSDact:
Please give me the correct pronunciation
of Les Miserables," the title OF one of
Victor Hugo's novels. Z. II. y.
1t is difficult to write out the exact pro-
nunclation. Lay Mezerable is about as
near as @e can give 1t. In Miserdbles the
sound of j is about that of Q in me; the
sound of the first about that of IN zeal;
the second e that of in error. and that OF
q IN alb. The final is silent. The &C
cent should be on able.

In the Royal Theater, in London
a performance was given lately for the
benefit of the National Lifeboat Insti.

persons were present, and the pro-
gramme afforded them much enjoy.
ment. After w. S. Gilbert's "Sweet-
hearts" had been performed, the Count
ess Russell, wife of Earl Russell, from
whom she has recently made an un.
successful attempt to be divorced, and
her sister, Mrs. Dick Russell, appeared
handsomely attired in similar cos
tunes of black and silver, with white
wigs and clinging black lace skirts.
The countess had coronet fastened
conspicuously to the front OF her &C.
contemplated dress. The ladies re-
ceived quite an ovation. Their contri.
button to the performance consisted OF
a skirt dance, assisted by Messrs. F.
and c. Lambert, who were also attired
in fantastic costumes. If without the
grace and refinement Cf practiced per.
formances, the ladies had heaps of as
surance, and appeared to enjoy the
sport as much as did the audience.
They were enthusiastically recalled
three times, and finally left the stage
amid a blaze of limelight and a perfect
bombardment OF flowers.

THE OLD MAN ENJOYED IT.
A Thrilling Bible Story Made to,Do in
Place Of a Modern Novel.


Years ago, out on the plains oi
wyoming, and at place off any
beaten track, lived an old man, known
as Lonely Joe, in hut by himself
and it was seldom indeed that he ever
had visitor. Occasionally, however,
some one would drift that way, and he
was always Hospitality treated by Joe.
The old man was Il great admirer of
Buffalo Bill, and hearing in some way
that book about the scout had been
published, he became possessed OF a
strong desire to have it and to know
its contents. One evening traveller
stopped at the hut OF Lonely Joe and
asked if he could put up there for the
night. Joe pondered moment or
two and finally said: "Wall, now,
stranger, it's jest this way; l amt
hankering to turn no critter away
what wants to stop, but I've made up
my mind that / won't let no man
stop here unless he gives me Buffalo
Bills book" A smile came over the
strangers face on the instant, and he
said:
"Well, I'm a great admirer of Buf-

THAT brain-weight is no certain in
dex of mental power is illustrated by
DR.. J. Simms in "Carrier Dove" by
the following examples: Grote, the
English historian, had but thirty
ounces OF brain matter, while an igno.
rant laborer named Russian possessed
seventy.eight ounces. To prove that
his theory is not based on exceptional
cases he cites many others. Bishop,
the mind-reader, and Gambetta, the
French statesman, possessed a brain
weight of forty ounces each, while u
stupid negro, executed for murder,
possessed seventy ounces, and three.
year-old child sixty-seven. Gall, the
German physician, had forty-two
against seventy-three in an Indian
squaw and seventy in born imbecile.
Dante, the poet, had forty-six, against
sixty ounces apiece found in mechanics,
soldiers, and laboring men. The ele-
phant averages 200 ounces.

The French Horn.

The French horn or cor de chasse
Is regarded by some musicians as the
sweetest and mellowcst of all the wind
instruments. In Beethoven's time it
was little else than the old hunting
horn, which, for the convenience of
the mounted hunter, was arranged in
spiral convOlutions, to be slipped over
the heal and carried resting on one
shoulder and under the opposite arm.
The Germans still call it the wald-
horn, that is, "foreet horn" Ii the
orchestra French horns were straight
ened ont they would be II feet long.

falo Bill, too, and by good luck hap
pen to have his book with me now
Can you read, pard?" Joe replied tina,
he couldn't, and the smile broadened
on the strangers face. He went out
to his saddlebags, but soon returned
bringing with him book. 1t was q
Bible. Joe hustled around, and in
short order prepared hearty supper
Having eaten, Joe then said his guest
must read him something about Buf
falo Bill. This was a " staggerer" fol
the stranger, for he knew his host
would turn him out bodily if he dis
covered the deception. He therefore
said he couldn't read himself, but al
ways had to get some one to read the
book to him. Lonely Joe was very
much disappointed, but in considera
ton of the book he let his guest stay
there that night. He vowed, how.
ever, that no one else should stay who
could not read.
1t was not great while after this
that another traveller asked for Lonely
Joe's hospitality. "Can you read?'
inquired Joe.
"Course | can," said the stranger
"What do you want me to readi
Some writing?"
NO." said Joe; it's a book. You
see, stranger, / set a heap by Buffalo
Bill, and i made up my mind not tc
let any one stay here that couldn't
read me something outen his book
Now I've got the book. l got it from
the last Teller what stopped here, but
he nor me couldn't read. So, stranger
If you can read and will read out ol
Buffalo Bills book, you're welcome to
stay here"
The stranger put up his horse and
had his supper. Then they sat down
and Lonely Joe's eyes fairly glistened
with anticipation as he handed the
stranger the book. The guest started
and laughed little as he saw it.
"Wny, this"-he exclaimed, and
then suddenly recollecting how eager
the old man was to hear abOut Ruffalo
Bill, he went on:
q" Why, this is nice copy"
Yes, yes" cried the old man: ago
on and read"
The stranger opened the book at
random, and by good luck hit upon
the story of Daniel in the Lions
Den." He read it all the way through,
never missing a line, and the old man
was simply delighted. The stranger
had inserted Buffalo Bills name
wherever the name of Daniel occurred.
