A0rahnn's Ark.


Abraham Martin, an old colored man
living in Atchison, Kan. believes that
there is going to be another flood. He
claims to have had revelation in q
dream, i'll which he was instructed to
prepare an ark like Noah's Of old. The
size Of the ark was designated in the
dream, and although the quarters are
too small for the elephants and giraffes
the old man has confidence that the Lord
will squeeze them inside in some way.
Martin has figured it out by the Bible
that the flood will come next August.
He expects the menagerie, however. to
begin arriving in June, when animals,
fowls, ETC., will present themselves at the
ark in pairs. The old colored man be-
lieves implicitly in the revelations" he
has had and has moved his family into
the ark.
"The Lord wants the earth peopled en-
tirely with black men, he said recently,
land no white people will be taken on
the boat. Only few very black negroes
will be admitted"
The, ark is built of old pieces of boards
picked up about town. Martin has been
over year building the craft.-Cor. st.
Louis Chronicle.

Wealthy and Lavish MIR. Crow.

About one coming marriage there Is o
flavor of romance. A bridesmaid had
been bespoken for wedding. She was
taken i'll before the time set, and at the
last moment was replaced by Miss
Louise Doelger, pretty girl, but un.
known in society. At the ceremony she
met Mr.. Moses Rockwell Crow, a gen.
tleman whose name would not reveal
the fact that he is the possessor of $s,-
100000 and a sort of Monte Cristo in
his way. 1t was case of love at first
sight. Moses was captured by the fair
Louise, and she. after u suitable period
spent in meditation and prayer, con-
sented to become Mrs. Crow. No one
could resist SO lavish an adorer.
Mr.. Crow lives among the swells Of
Great Darlington, Mass. and gives din,
ners and dances. He is in the habit Of
supplying watches set with diamonds as
favors in the german. He took his
fancee out to ride the other day in the
finest brougham which money could buy,
drawn by a pair of priceless horses.
When she admired them at the end Of
the drive. he told her they were hers.- -

The Modern Shave.

"The nose pulling barber is hard to
find now unless one goes into the cheap
shops" said George D. Hamilton of
Memphis. There was time not SO
many years ago when barber would
take you by the noseif he had to shHve
your upper lip AID almost pull the pro-
tuberance up by the roots. A friend of
mine told me he went into shop once,
and the barber asked him if he would
have a thumb or spoon shave, meaning
thereby that if my friend was fastidious
about having the barber jab his thumb
in the corner of his mouth to extend his
jaw he would use spoon for that pur-
pose. But those days are gone. Even
the talking barber is a missing link be-
tween the new and the old tonsorial
schools. All the disagreeable features of
a shave have disappeared, and the opera
ton is now smooth and pleasant The
only people who find anything disagree
able in the process are those who shave
themselves or who get a shave in d scent
shop."-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Minnie's Yearly Expenses.

man." said friend of Minnie's mother,
speaking of the daughters evident liking
for an impecunious young lawyer.
"That is just where you are mistak-
en-" answered Minnie's mamma. She
has $4,000 a year Of her own, and she
spends every penny of it upon her clothes.
Her dresses last year cost about 81, coo, her
hats and bonnets about $780, her lingerie
another $500, and besides there ere her
jackets, gloves and all the other ncces-
sories of the toilet. And she is no ex-
ception in her world; most Of her friends
spend quito as much and many great

cannot afford to marry nowadays and

w. w. Walters. the venturesome
young man who travels over the gas belt
shooting gas wells with nitroglycerin,
had frightful experience in Muncie
Thursday, and several people had close
calls for their lives. Walters travels in
spring wagon, in which he transports
the deadly explosive. He was approach
ing gas well on Henry Martins prop
erty, and large crowd had assembled to
see Miss Rose Martin drop the "go
devil, which she did. The horses pulling
the dangerous stuff got frightened and
started to run off. Walters staid with
them and pulled his revolver to shoot
them If they could not be stopped any
other way. Fortunately the neck yoke
on the tongue came loose, letting the
tongue down, and stopped the team. The
wagon was loaded with 100 quarts Of the
explosive at the time. and the result Of
an explosion would have made catas-

Ll.blll.s of chiearo Hotel Mem.

Travellers may be interested in the
news to the effect that Theodore Bendit,
. New York drummer, has recovered a
judgment Of $40 against the Palmer
House of Chicago for a coat and over
coat which were stolen from his room.
Mr.. Bendit brought his suit as test
case for the benefit Of commercial trav-
elers who have to stay in Chicago
It has been well settled principle Of
law in most of the states for long time
that hotel keepers were liable for the loss
or theft Of guests wearing apparel,
provided the guest himself was not at
fault or guilty Of negligence which led
to the loss or theft. Indeed, in New
York state this principle has been SO
broad that the legislature has seen fit to
restrict it, presumably on account Of the
heavy damages several times recovered
against hotel keepers prior to 1889.

Third Term Talk.

The most astounding report which is
brought here, and Mr.. Benedict was au-
thority for it, is the suggestion contained
in the fattering remarks made by many
of the Office seekers to the president. A
large proportion of them, certainly more
than one half, say to him that they expect
to have the privilege Of voting for him
again in 1896. Some Of them try to ex-
plain why by asserting that party lines
will be so changed, and he will have built
up so strong personal following, and it
will be 90 necessary to be sure that his
policy win be carried out, that the coun-
try will simply demand that he serve
another term. Some of those who are
not officeholders suggest this to him. He
never makes any reply to these sugges-
tions, and what he thinks of them no ono
knows.-New York Cor. Philadelphia

The Population of the Moon.

There is plenty of authority for be-
Ieving that there is man in the moon:
in fact, there is authority for believing
that there are women and other animals
there. Dante declares that Cain was
banished to the moon, and that he can
be seen there at any time. Chaucer de-
clares that the man in the moon was
guilty Of larceny, and that he carries u
thornbush. Shakespeare loads him with
thorns and gives him dog. Accord
ing to the general version, he was ban
ished there for gathering sticks on Sum
day. and the Germans have amplified
this theory,by giving him woman who

Outside my garret window there's roof,
And there the lively sparrows loyo to come
In wintry days, eager to get a crumb.
Though feathered warm, In brown and gray,
not proof
Are they 'gainst hunger. From ledge aloof
They furry down, alert and frolicsome,
And then again they're sober eyed aud glum,
Anxious that should give for their behoof
They are abused by some, freely own;
And when gave food have seen them flare
Away awhile, as il they had a fear
OF unexpected HARM but ne'er stone
Would throw at these gossi.s of the air
That the dull weather fills with chatty cheer.
