instances he met with resistance. but
that did not prevent him from firing
several shots from his revolver at men
who opposed him. Dime novel litera-

The Rev. j. Colquhoun, Of Leight, was
q man of extreme solemnity of demeanor.
On one sacrament Sunday morning, his
wife, being DESTROYS to have him nicely
out for the occasion, had bis coat rugged
well brushed, his shirt white as snow and
his bands hanging handsomely on his
breast; and when she surveyed her guide
man, she was so delighted with his
comedy appearance that she suddenly
took him around the neck and kissed

KILLED HIS WIFE AND A NURSE.
Terrible Deeds Of Crazy Half Caste Greei
at Hawaii


HoSoLuLU, April 2l.-Antonso Gas
penardo, 3 half-caste Greek living at
Kaneohe, Hawaii, murdered his wife
and native hospital nurse March 81 i.
Gaspenardo for two years has been in
possession of the idea he was messiah
and could restore the dead to life. His
conduct led the asylum authorities to
send nurse to make arrangement with
Gaspenardo's wife for her husbands in
generation. When Gaspenardo came
home he found them at dinner, and it is
supposed from the positions OF the
bodies that he went into the room
quietly and dealt the native a blow
which crushed her skull, and to silence
the screams of his wife, who evidently
ran to the next room to escape him,
Gaspenardo struck her, and afterward
mutilated her body with a knife. 1t is
believed Gaspensrdo has come to this
part OF the island with view to ship
ping as a sailor on some outward bound
vessel.

We have no symbols to represent the
sound Of sigh, kiss, a chirp, groan,
though characters expressive Of these
would be of great service to novelists;
but, on the other hand, we have three
distinct characters-f, # and ph--ex-
pressing exactly the same sound.
Then how imperfect and arbitrary we
are in the use Of those symbols which
we possess; tn is all we can do to ex-
press the initial sound of thing and
thine, though Welsh writer can show
the difference by making the former an
aspirated t, the latter an aspirated d;
yet in this repect we are better off than
the French, who cannot employ the as
pirated dental at all. Englishmen are
inclined to wonder why the Chinese,
with all their ancient civilization, have
no symbol for the consonant r, and are
apt to forget that, except at the begin
ming of syllable, that letter has be-
come in their own language mute re-
dundancy.
The following sentence, for example,
might be perfectly well expressed in
Chinese characters, "Sour barts are
more alarming than certain earls," for,
in colloquial English, not one of these
seven RS would be trilled. ed.-Blackwood'

The pictorial sign is but little seen in
this country. Among the few that wo
find are the District Telegraph com
pany's pictures, showing deceptive rep
resontations of fast speeding messenger

by nearly all costumers, some East
Broadway inodistes and few Bowery
tailors. One clothing establishment had
the rather original idea of placing por-
traits OF all the members Of the firm be-
tween the windows Of the building, and
the same plan was later on followed by
an electrical belt doctor on Broadway.

In 1880 the Azores came under the
power Of Spain, and In the history Of
the next twenty years their name is fire.
quent as the favorite battle-ground OF
the English and Spanish fleets. The
partiality was, indeed, mainly on the
side Of the former, and for a good rea-
son. These islands lay right in the
track of all vessels sailing to and from
that enchanted region known then to
all men as the Spanish Main. On the
highest peak of Terceira, whence in
clear weather the sea could be scanned
for leagues around, were raised two col
umns, and by them o man watched
night and day. When he saw any sails
approaching from tho west he set O flag
upon the western column, one for each
sail; if they came from the east simi-
lar sign was set up on the eastern col.
umn.
Hither in those days came up out Of
the mysterious western seas the great
argosies laden with gold and silver and
jewels, with silks and spices and rare
woods, wrung at the cost of thousands
of harmless lives and cruelties unspeak-
able from the fair lands which lie be.
tween the waters Of the Caribbean sea
and the giant wall of the Andes. And
hither, when England too began to turn
her oyes to Ell Dorado, came the great
war galleops Of Spain and Portugal Il,
meet these precious cargoes and convoy
them safe into Lisbon or Cadiz before
those terrible English sea wolves could
get scent OF the prizs.-Macmillan's

The first regular train service in Eng
land commenced on the Liverpool and
Manchester railway on Friday, Sept. II,
1880, two days after the opening of the
line. 1t was not on very ambitious
scale; three trains each way on week
days and two on Sundays were deemed
quite sufficient. The novelty of the
thing, however, at first and very soon it's
proved safety and efficiency, led at once
to much larger traffic than had been
anticipated, and as soon as the company
could obtain more rolling stock the SER
vice was increased.
For time people who had ventured
to risk their lives by the new mode Of
conveyance were the objects of admira-
tion for their courage or of contempt
for their foolhardiness; but one by one
the coaches had to be taken off the road,
and everybody went by rail.
The time occupied in the journey was
at first seldom moro than two hours and
often less, the distance being thirty-one
miles; but even this rate was too fast
for somo people, for gentleman, writ
ing about six weeks after the opening of
the line, says the speed was too great to
be pleasant and caused him to feel some
what giddy.-Cornhill Magazine.

There are in England several coal and
metalliferous mines which extend and
are worked at considerable distance
out to sea. But perhaps the most re-
msrkable submarine coal mine ia that at
Nanaimo, on Departure bay, beyond
Victoria, B. @. This mine is known as
the Wellington, and its galleries are
situated 600 feet below the Rstrface of
the ocean, which here incloses an archi-
pelago of islands very similar to the
Thousand islands at the head Of the st.
Lawrence river. The galleries of this
pit, which are continually developing,
extend at present length of six miles
under the bottom of the waters of the
Pacific ocean.
Nearly the whole population Of the
town of Nanaimo, amounting to nearly
1000, is engaged in the mines of the
place, the average daily wages per head
being from twelve to twenty three shil-
lings. Liberal as this payment appears
to be the cost of living in that inhos-
pitable region is so high that the miners
can after all only just make both ends
meet.-Iron.

Information has reached the city OF
the exciting experience of George Allen
and Mike Flynn, two prospeetors, with
a cinnamon bear in the mountains o
short distance from Red Cliff. The men
were on q prospecting tour and we'll
armed. As they were eating breakfast
they were paralyzed to see short dis
tance away and coming toward them in
q leisurely manner, attracted by .he
odor of tho bacon they had just cooked.
q huge bear Allen advised flight, but
Flynn could not resist the temptation to
use his Winchester. Taking careful
aim, he fired.
The ball struck the bear in the neck
and with a roar he rushed for the
shooter. Flynn fed for his life, with the
bear in hot pursuit. Before running far
he was fortunate enough to find o tree
with low reaching branches. Grssping
one of these he swung clear off tho
ground just as the bear came jumping
up, escaping with claw in the left leg.
The bear attempted to follow, but was
finished with shot in the spine from

Why rney Beg Newspaper..

Begging newspapers seems to be one
OF the occupations of Gothan's small
boy, and according to one of these
urchins good revenue is derived from
the business. The practice is known as
Canada business" A gang of eight or
ten boys besiege the entrance to the
bridge and elevated road every morning
and keep an argus eye on all persons
carrying newspapers. They stretch out
their arms asking for the newspapers
and often pull them out of the hands of
passers by.
The "newsies" are very persistent,
and occasionally get into little snarls
with dyspeptic persons who get down
town in bad humor. The temper Of
these people might be intensified did
they know that, according to confess
sion of ono OF the boys, q newsdealer of
speculative turn of mind originally
put the boys up to the practice they fol-
low. If the newspapers are too much
soiled to sell, the boys turn them over
to the speculator, who holds them in re-
serve, paying the boys pittance and
then realizing full value by handing
them over to the respective newspapers
as "return" and getting copies of the
current date for them.
The youngsters have learned his meth
cd though, and most Of them do their
own returning" as well as "begging"
now. The practice is bad every way, as
1t is fast converting the little hustlers
into indolent beggars.-New York Com

A most useful article for ladies to
have in their possession is a girdle, the
like of which friend Of mine has just
brought from Paris. The girdle is made
Of gold lace or filigree, substantial, but
not harsh, and is studded all over with
jewels Of various colors. The ends are
passed around the waist from the front,
crossing behind, and, again coming for
ward, are allowed to fall in front or on
one side, being fastened loosely shortly
below the waist. The ends are finished
off with gold fringe.
The girdle is most adaptable and can
be worn with morning wrapper, tea
gown, or an evening dress. When
saw 1t, 1t was associated with summer
tea gown Of pretty design. The material
was combination OF cotton and wool
in pale blue, with white stripes. It had
sailor collar, with narrow lace edging
and lace cuffs. The garment was de-
cidedly loose, and Of fair length behind.

Tho first glimpse we get of an eastern
walled city unfolds at once memories Of
our childhood days, which have perhaps
never been awakened since, and the Pic
lures of our childish books, which i'm
pressed themselves SO vividly upon our
minds, are reproduced In the bright col
ors of old, when we are brought face to
face with the quaint battlements and
the dark gateways, with the accessories
of bright, burning sunshine and tur-
baned figures and professions of camels
and the listless calm of the tropical land
Such old cities are still to be seen in In
dia, still walled in the old fashion and
still peopled by the figures Of the Biblical
picture book.
Closely akin to them are those walled
towns standing on the canals of mid
China, passing through which, say at
the close Of day, when every tower and
every roof stands out clearly cut against
the brilliant western sky and we are
challenged by grotesque figure, armed
with @ spear and probably wearing
armor. the illusion is complete, and for
the moment we find it hard to realize
that we are travelling at the end of tho
Nineteenth century.
Even in much changed Japan there
are old cities which still retain their walls
of the ago of feudalism, and in the very
heart of the capital the imperial palace
is surrounded by the same quaint forti-
fications which in old troublous times
made it an imperium in imperio, al.
though tho walls are crumbling and the
gates are never shut, and the moats have
been abandoned to the lotus and to carp
of monstrous size and fabulous age

About n National Flower.

There isv very little use in talking about
an American national flower. We are
not a nation, no matter how many big
Ms We may put to the word, in the sense
that Englishnen and Frenchmen consti-
tute nation. What is typical in one
section of our continentalsrepublic is
not typical in another, and an emblem
which might mean great deal in New
England or New York would have bnt
an artificial significance in Louisiana or
California. State flowers we might
have, and to some extent we do have
them. California has formally adopted
the Eschscholtzia, or California poppy,
as it's emblem. Maine men wear pine
branch when they want to indicate what
state they have come from.
Our Massachusetts, flower is naturally
the trailing arbutus, and that ought to
be formally adopted as our emblem. At
the Grand Army encampment nearly
every state delegation wore something
which was characteristic of the state.
We comprehend ourselves better if we
divide ourselves up by forty-four, and
there are enough plants and flowers to
go around.-Boston Transcript.

The Scotch, with unconscious absurd
ity, sometimes talk Of tempting Prov
idence." In writing Calls Well That
Ends WE'LL" Shakespeare was "tempt-
ing" the higher criticism. Ever since
the days Of Zenodotus in Alexandria the
higher criticism has reveled in "athe-
tizing," or marking as spurious, this part
of an authors work because it Is "un-
worthy of him." that part because it is
mot in his STYLE" third portion be-
cause it is repetition Of something he
has said elsewhere, and so on, till in
Homer there are few lines to which
some German or some Alexandrian
Greek has not urged objections To
similar exercises of idle ingenuity has
"All's Well That Ends Well" been ex-
posed.
When Lucian met Homer in the For
tunate islands, he asked the poet which
of the rejected passages were really his
own. "All and every one Of them"
answered the shade; and Shakespeare's
ghost might have made as inclusive
response to critical inquiries. Yet "Alls
Well' is certainly play full of difficult
ties and enigmas. 1t was first printed
in the folio Of 1923, and very badly
printed it was. None of the dramas
contains SO many passages that appear 10
be corrupt; none is so rich in the unin-
telligible; none so open to conjectural
emendation.-Andrew Lang in Harper's.

Immunity for the Firefiies.

Birds do not eat firefies, and even
bats, which seem to eat everything else
that they can chew or swallow, never
touch lightning bug. There must be
something distasteful in this insect to
the feathered world, and thus the spe-
cies is preserved, for if 1t were not SO
lightning bugs would soon become ex-
tinct, as the torch they carry would
only serve the purpose of attracting
their enemies.
1t may be that the uncanny appear
anee of the insect, giving forth as it
does brilliant flash of light every mo-
ment or two, deters birds and bats from
attacking it, but if a lightning bug were
a toothsome morsel to birds bill, any
number of the feathered world would
soon overcome their repugnance to the
little living torch and go hunting for
lightning bugs.-St. Louis Globe Demo-

Major Allatt warns us against some
stories regarding long flights by trained
Rigeons which have been put forth on
high authority. 1t was at his sugges-
lion that an apocryphal tale of pigeons
sept out to and returning from the arctic
regions, which has even been imposed
apon Yarrell, was expunged from the
last edition of that writer's British
Birds" An equally false account of a
pigeon flying 1900 miles in America is
also extant.
Major Allatt believes the greatest dis
lance pigeons have flown of which we
have any accurate record is in the races
which have taken plfee two or three
hines from Rome to Belgium, a distance
Of between 800 and 300 miles. But in
svery one of these cases very large
proportion Of birds have been lost

THE END OF THE DAY.


Ihear the bells at eyentide
Peal softly ono by one,
Near and far off they break and glide,
Across the stream float faintly beau
tiful
The antiphonal bells Of Hull;
The day Is done, done, done,
The day Is done.
The dew has gathered In the flowers
Like tears from some unconscious deep,
The swallows whirl around the towers,
The light runs out beyond the long
cloud bars
And leaves the single stars;
Tis time for sleep, sleep, sloep,
"Tis time for sleep.

Timorous ere1nite,
That song OF risen tears and pain,
As II the one he loved was far away
"Alasi another day
And now good night, good night,
Good nightl''
