Weather Wisdom.

The observatory at Paris was con- ducted on a somewhat old fashioned plan under it's late director, Admiral Mouchez, whose death was recently recorded. AL though a courteous man, the admiral has no patience with modern newspapers, which kept reporters almost constantly running to him to ''interview" him on various astronomical and meteorological questions.
 Not long ago reporter came to him and asked, "How do you account for the present season being so wety'
 T know nothing of meteorology, answered the director of the observatory blandly, "but might l venture to sug- gest that perhaps it is because we have had so much rain?"

 "Pardon me-" answered the admiral, "but the fact is am very busy today. If you'll run in tomorrow, very likely can tell you. ."-Exchange.

EnLIanh's Oldest Man.

The oldest man in England is said to be Amos Ji ''s, a native of Shropshire, now living at Wellingborough, North smptonshire The claim that he is l07 years old, it is averred, has been inves. tigated and thoroughly verified by re- sponsible parties. The old man is with cred and bent, and his eyesight has failed, and his voice is shaky, but apart from these evidences of age he is freq from physical infrmity. He eats, drinks and sleeps well, and is not at all deaf.

 The Chinese emperor is so secluded that Viceroy Lii became real ruler. He advocated liberal policy in everything except religion, granted concessions for railroads and telegraphs, including the famous one to Count Mitkiewicz, and put down rebellion with fierce energy. But he does not like the missionaries, and it is suspected that he secretly fa- vored the recent outrages on them. In the first stages of his madness, it is said, he slapped foreign ambassadors in the face, insulted all officials who came near him, and by refusing his official duties threw the whole administration into confusion

Wonderful Railroad.

When the railroad between Moscow and St. Petersburg was opened it in- spired great terror in the breasts of the superstitious peasantry, who thought there must be some witchcraft in an in- vention which could make a train of heavy cars run along without horses at the rate of twenty miles an hour. Some of them would not goin sight of train. Others took timid peeps at the smoke breathing creature, which they believed to be alive and ready to devour what ever came in its way. When the whis- tie sounded they said, "The monster is hungry; hos screaming for somebody to eatr'
 By degrees, however, their terror wore away, and following the example of the village priests the peasants began to try the smoke wagons" though with fear and trembling. The superstition had gone, but themystery still remained.
 One day an old man who had never been away from his own village deter mined to take look at "Mother Mos cow," which is regarded by all the Rus sian peasantry as the most wonderful city in the world.
 The down express and the up express met at Bologoe-half way between St. Petersburg and Moscow-and the pas sengers of both trains were allowed half an hour for supper. Among the people who alighted from the other train the old peasant recognized a friend whom he had not seen fol Il long time.
 They had delightful chat together over their tea in the restaurant, and then without any thought of what he was doing the old peasant boarded his friends train instead of his own.
 The talk was very merry for some time. but at last the old man became grave and silent, and appeared to be puzzling deeply over something, At last he broke out:
 An, Ivan, what a wonderful thing are these railroads! Here we sit in the same car, going to Moscow and you to St. Petersburgw-YOuth's Companion.

AUTUMN IN TIE COUNTRY.

AUTUMN IN THE COUNTRY. When tho leaves of nutumn die, And the song birds sOuthward fly;
 When tho frost Touches all with Anger cold Touches and it turns to gold;
 When is lost All the summer that we love, And the sky grows gray above; When the breeze from over hill Brings an underlined chill,
 Like fear; When the grass grows whithered, brown, And the autumn storm clouds frown;
 When the year Passes from its middle prime To the weaker after time; When the goldenrod succeeds To the lily's throne, and weeds
 Gin to grow Where the flowers were before; When the orchards ripened store
 With its show Of red and gold, falls to earth Mother World that gave 1t birth Then, though laughing harvests bring Time to dance and time to sing
 And delight, Still sorrow seems to fall Over field and hill and hall,
 Like blight, For the boarders went away In the night and didn't pay.
