Yesterday morning, about j
o'clock, a soldier who was on guard
at the Palace walk entrance to the
Palace grounds saw three men, one
Of whom carried a mysterious bun
die. lie called 10 them In stop,
but they did not comply. They
started to run and, simultaneously
the soldier exploded his gun at the
flying men, This action on the
part of the guard made the men
hurry more than over.
In few seconds another report
rang out on the night air, and it
seems that the soldier stationed at
the Richards street gate saw but
two men, the third man with the
mysterious looking bundle had dis
appeared,
A squad of soldiers was called
out and search was made for the
men but they could not be found.
In explaining the affair some
people say that the first guard must
have seen ghosts, as the same are
said to be common about the bum
galow.
Another man thinks that tho
individual with the mysterious
looking bundle was returning the
Jewels which were stolen from ka-

HIS CUSHION.
An Anecdote of the Great Scientist,
Michael FarAday.

An Anecdote of the Great Scientist,
Michael Farnday.
Among the many anecdotes Of Mi
chael Faraday, the great scientist, is
one which was printed originally in the
Proceedings of the Royal Society" in
connection with other biographical
facts chiefly derived from that eminent
mans correspondence and note books
1t appears that he and Sir Charles
Lyell were sent as government commits
sioners to watch the inquest upon those
who had died by the explosion in the
HasweQ colliery in 1874. Faraday cross
examined the witnesses very pertinent
II. Among other questions he asked
how the rate OF fow Of air currents was
measured.
An inspector, in reply. took a pinch
o. gunpowder from box. as if it were
snuff, and let it fall through the fame
of candle. His companion. with
watch. noted the time the smoke took
TO travel a certain distance.
The method satisfied Faraday, but he
remarked upon the careless handling
of the powder. and asked where it was
kept.
&. I'm bag. tightly tied" was the re-
ply.
Yes, but where do you keep the
bag?"
you are sitting on it," answered the
inspector, carelesslv.
The well-meaning people, not being
over-stocked with chairs had given the
their best substitute tor
cushion. Faraday's agility IN vacating
this scat OF honor may be imagined
