LITERARY NOTES.

Harper's Magazine for October will
contain the first of Edwin Lord Weeks's
articles on the journey across Persia
which he undertook last year with the
late Theodore Child. The illustrations,
made by Mr.. Weeks from his sketches,
are unusually attractive. In the same
number of the Magazine is an article by
Carl Schurz on the manifest Destiny"
of the United States, and an entertain
ing description of "Under-graduatc
Life at OXFORD" by Richard Harding
Davis
The Art interchange for October is
an usual humber, both in its matter
and illustrations, as well as the high
grade of its supplements, three OF which
are in color and two in black and
white. The Dutch pictures at Chicago
are ably reviewed and handsomely IL
Illustrated. The portraits at the Fair
and the color decorations also receive
attention in separate papers.
Electricity at the Worlds Fair opens
the October number of the Popular
Science Monthly. The subject is a fas-
cinating one, and Mr.. Charles M. Lun-
gren, who writes the article, has given
faithful descriptions of the enormous
generators, the marvellous electric
fountains. the electric railway and
launches in operation, and other won
ders of the electrical exhibit
The appearance of the full piano
score of a set of original waltzes, by
Edward Strauss, the famous waltz com
poser, and conductor of the Court Balls
of Vienna, is one of the many striking
features of the October Ladies' Home
journal. This set of Waltzes is called
"The Dancing Waves Waltzes," and
will be found quite as melodious as any
of It's predecessors.
Since Mr.. Timothy Cole finished his
work of engraving the old masters OF
Italian art for the Century, he has been
hard at work IN Holland transferring
to the wood block the most important
paintings of the old dutch masters.
| His enGravings are to appear in the
Century during the coming year, ac-
companied by brief comments by the
artist-engraver.
Outing for October opens with an IN
teresting article, ''Sketching Among
the Sioux" descriptive of the life and
methods of the brown nomads OF the
great plains, as seen by party OF
artists. The illustrations are numer-
Gus and g God.
The Atlantic Monthly for October
contains the beginning of three-part
story, entitled THE Man from Aidonc,
by Mrs. Elizabeth Cavazza, of Portland,
Maine, who is especially qualified to
write just such an interesting story as
this is 1t is story Of Italy, and the
characters and local color are admira-
bly managed.

Mysterious Crank Wantod to See
Him.
WAsmINGToN, Sept. 29.-Pollce Officer
Heller had violent struggle yesterday
with an insane man who IN some mys-
terious manner got into the White
House and was looking for President
Cleveland The appearance Of the Of
ficer probably saved the president from
assault. How the fellow got inside the
building no one knows. He appeared
in hall on the lower floor as suddenly
as though he came through the ceiling,
and the colorcd cook, whom he met,
he questioned.
~ want to see father" said he.
"Wbo is your fathcr?" the cook asked
him.
cleveland, OF course" was the re.
sponse.
just then Policeman Heller appeared
upon the scene and asked what he
wanted. He saw Mt n glance the man
was not altogether right
Your father Is out I'm the garden,
he told the mysterious visitor; come
with me and we will find him"
They Immediately started toward the
door, the intruder thinking he was GO
ing to meet the president. In few
minutes they appeared in a little watch
box, where Policeman Hible was on
duty. Before Hible knew what was
going on the prisoner grabbed his
| Uiible's) black Jack from his pocket,
evidently thinking he was getting a
pistol. He tried to use the black jacl,
on the officers but they grabbed HIM
and the struggle lasted but a few mn
utcs before the man was overpowered,
At the station the crank gave the
name of Joseph Washington, but re-
! fused to tell where he lived. No one
at the station remembered of ever hav-
ing seen him before. When asked
what he wanted at the White House
he replied:
~ wanted the chair"
"What chair?"

Don't you think the president fills
it satisfactorily"
"No, | don't, was the reply, ''and

A certain Judge in Chicago. who
rather prides himself on his vast and
varied knowledge OF law, was com
PEELED not long ago to listen to case
that had been appealed from Justice
of the peace. Tho young practi-
TONER who appeared for the appel
liant was long and tedious; he brought
in all the elementary text books and
quoted the fundamental propositions
OF law. At last, the judge thought
it was time to make an effort to hurry
him up Cant we assume, he said,
bandly, "that the court knows a
little law itselfP" That's the very
mistake made in the lower court, y

Iiurrahing In Many Lands.

II Is not generally known that few
words can boast OF so remote and
widely extended prevalence AS
"hurrah. In India and Coylon
"ur.rc!" which seems to be n form OF
"hurrah," is used by tho mahouts
and attendants on the baggage
elephants. The Arabs and camel
drivers OF Egypt, Palestine and
Turkey encourage their animals to
renewed effort by cries OF "ar-re,
ar-row Tho Spanish Moors use
something OF the same expression.
In France the sportsman excites the
hounds by his shouts OF Hare,
hare!" and wagoners turn their
horses by crying "liarbauh!" Irish
and Scottish herdsmen shout "liur'
IRISH, hurrishw to their cattle. The
exclamation il thought TO DO n cor
ruption OF the old Morse battle cry

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. A Big
Four freight train ran into three
loaded fiat cars at Edgewood at $3.50
yesterday. ., The engine was lifted
bodily from its track and the

lumbus were riding. They were pinned
in the wreckage and two of them were
boiled to death by escaping steam.

debris only to die shortly afterward.

hundred yards. While the wrecking
crew was prying car off the rails a

10 say tnat the street lliuniinations
are the grandest ever seen on the
streets OF any city in the world Is to
state the case mildly. The number of
lights used exceeds 5000, and more
than half of these are electric. The
downtown section is u blaze of light,
arches competing for popularity
with electric effects of the most dnz-
cling character. These latter are for
the most part panoramas with constant
changes, and vehicle traffic is well
nigh suspended owing 10 the crowds
winch throng the streets rs well rs
cover the sidewalks.
The western hemisphere panorama,
illustrated herewith. facing Washing.
ton university, has upwards OF l,2oO
electric lights and tells the story of the
discovery of America IN letters of fire.
Another magnificent spectacle is the
electric floral arch in natural colors
and another in u combination OF the
flags of the United States and Spain
with an eagle far above the center
There are ten other electric displays
all equally attractive.
The Examinations will DO repeated
Oct. 3, 3, 10 and 10, and every one who
appreciates n combination OF beauty
and magniiicence ought to see them.
The railroad rates are exceptionally
low and the attractions as exception
ally gorgeous and irresistible.
