IN THE NEW FLAT.

Chicago Tribune
1t was the Sparks family's first night
in the new fiat, and Mr.. Sparks felt as
every man feels who has been moving
all day.
The drayman had dropped trunk on
the family clock and made it useless for
all time.
I'VE must get another clock, my
dear" said Mrs. Sparks, land we may
as we'll get handsome one for the OAK
mantel in the front room, and good
tlme-piece, so you won't be late at the
office any more.o 5-t ---F. 5.e.
Mr.sSparks had just paid $50 to one
landlord to let him out, and $50 to an
other to let him in.
"One clock is as good as another"
said he, land | cannot waste my money
on fancy ones. The works are all the
same, and L don't propose to pay for
gingerbread ornamentatiOn."
Very we'll" SAID MIR Sparks.
That was Monday. Tuesday night
MIR. Sparks slept soundly until O'clock.
Then the ringing of the electric front
doOr-bell, just over the manteI in the
dining room, reused him. There was
no let up in the sound as Mr.. Sparks
pulled on his trousers and tucked in his
nightgown.
The fellow must have his foot plant
ed on the BUTTON" he thought, as ne
went barefooted down two flights OF IN
carpeted stairs, while the bell kept up
its tattoo behind him. He was in an
agony lest it awake the baby, con-
tingency that meant no peace until
morning, for the Sparks baby was of a
nervous temperament. The bell stopped
its clamOr just as Mr.. Sparks reached
the front door and threw it open. The
wind swept in and chilled his knees,
but there was no one there. He crept
angrily back up stairs.
who, in the name of decency," he
demanded of Mrs. Sparks, would ring
our door bell at this hour OF night and
then run away? l believe 1t was some
of your fool friends"
Our door BELL" echoed Mrs. Sparks,
sweetly. That wasn't our door bell,
dear; it was the so cent alarm clock that
bought yesterday ringing off six hours
ahead of time"

during the day by the practice of this
craze. Recently one of the employers
discovered what it all meant, and now
there is sign posted conspicuously in
the room which reads: ANY employe

L asked q member of the firm what it
was all about.
why, it's the craziest thing you ever
heard Of" he said. 1.-The idea is this:
Ii young lady meets young man with
a ring on his finger she is to turn the
ring two or three times. Then with
another man the same thing, and so on
until she has turned rings to the extent
OF about twenty-four times. Then the
next thing to do is to look for married
person. male or female, wearing mar
rage ring. This ring she is to turn
twice, and the next man she shakes
hands with will be her husband.
Cray, isn't it?'' said the dignified
employer. with laugh. but that sign
there has put stop to it in this place
The time we have lost through it would

this was true. After some hesitation
she admitted, with many bushes, that
it was,

joke?" said 1.
"Oh, no." replied she very seriously.
I'VE all believe in it. Why. know of
young lady myself who married the
very man she shook hands with after
turning the marriage ring. 1t comes
true every time.''
'How about yourself?''
"Well, Pm waiting patiently for the

And she bounded away with a laugh

The brains of the crocodile generate
none of that subtle something which
perpetually asks questions that have no
answers. and cherishes beliefs that have
no foundations.-Rev.D DR.. j. w. Lee.
We are not sure of the tauth of this
remark. We must say that when we
study the looks, attitudes and acts of a
crocodile he often seems to be thinking;
he seems at times to be in believing or
a questioning or doubling state of
mind.
The crocodile is certainly able to per-
ceive, to observe, to remember, and to
draw deductions from phenomena. He
has an emotional nature, with likes and
dislikes. His ingenuity is remarkable.
His faculties can be brought under
cultivation, as every crocodile trainer
knows. We have the means of finding
out some of his thoughts, though we
cannot compass all Of them. He may,
for all we know, or for all Rev. DR.. Lee
knows, CHERISH beliefs that have no
foundation" and Task questions that
have no answer" He is the possessor
of brain which generates subtle
something"
These remarks are applicable, not
alone to the crocodile, but to other ami
mails, including even the monkey. Prof.
Garner, of this city, recently published
a curious book on the speech of Mon
keys" and those of our readers who
know OF his experiments with the mon
keys of Central park and in Africa are
aware how far he has gone in proving
that they have mental faculties and
powers which may yet be highly devel-
Oped. How can Rev. DR.. Lee say that
they never ask unanswerable questions?
In these days some people are taking
to tbeosophy, and they say it is an eX-
PLANTATION of things. The chief ex-
FOUNDER of it here, in a recent discourse
upon 1.-The SOUL" summed up his
knowledge of the subject in the re-
mark: The soul is the self of being;"
and, if this be the case, we have right
to inquire, has not a crocodile the self
of being? Have not other animals. as
well as birds and fishes? If not, bring
out the proof.
DR.. Lee says that he would ''rather be
a man than crocodile" but crocodile,
happy in his self of being, would rather
be what he is than be man.

ONE CAUSE OF CHOLERA.
Pilgrims Bound to Drink Sewage
at Mecca'S HOLY Well.

E. FARMLAND, writing to the London
Times. says: Some years ago you in
serted a letter of mine OIL the condition
of the water OF the holy we'll of Zem-
Fem. used by the Mohammedan pill
grims at Mecca. A sample of the water
came TO me.through the India office. 1t
was full of dead microbes, and con-
tanned, in an equal volume, considerable
more animal matter than is found in
average London sewage.
In addition, it afforded evidence of
previous pollution with an amount of
such matter at least six times as great
as thatcontained in an equal volume of
average London sewage. The water ha
been again quite recently analysed by
Col. BonkOwSki Bey, consulting
chemist TO his majesty the sultan of
Turkey. His results confirm my own
analysis. They show that the water is
still abominably polluted by excremen-
titlouS matter.
The surroundings of this we'll are
such as would be likely to impart to the
water these dangerous ingredients
Mecca appears 10 have no sewerage
system, all foul matters being buried in
the earth within or near the city. Hence
the foulneSs of the water percolating
iilto the wen through lIlS mass OF cor
ruption. Col. Bonkowski Bey informs
me that Mecca is supplied with water of
excellent quality; but. of course, the
pilgrims are bound TO drink at the holy
well. Tens of thousands of pilgrims
continue to die of cholera at Mecca, and
to spread the disease elsewhere; but, so
far as l know. no measures have been
taken to prevent pollution, and Mecca
continues to be a center from which
cholera is propagated throughout Eu-
rnna

ROME AND LONDON,
Not Much Difference in the Prices
of OIden Times.


London Land and Water.
A correspondent of a contemporary
gives some interesting details COM
pairing the value of land in the city of
London today with the value of land in
ancient Rome.
A business freehold property in the
city, offered for sale by auction, was
Withdrawn at 9176.000, or at the rate of
G45 per foot. 1t appears that the house
of Clodius cost what would be e119,4
of our money. The Roman palaces
naturally fetched higher prices, while
smaller houses cost less. The residence
whole it would seem that real property
almost as valuable as it is in the me-
cities during the medieval ages,
business, but also and chiefly private
residences. The house of Clodius. for
example, besides its store rooms, where
the produce from his country estates
was kept for sale, contained the usual
apartments of private mansion. The
Maison Plantin at Antwerp is fine eX-
ample of a sixteenth century house
where, under the same roof, were the
business offices and private apartments
of the proprietor. AS in England aud
the low countries, SO in Rome, the value
of such houses as places of residence
affected the prices they fetched in the
market. Therefore the comparison with
the price realized for purely business
premises is in some measure untrust-
worthy.

A BIG FIGHT ON HAND.
ACTION TO EKJ0W THE ST. LOUIS
RAILROAD
FROM THE USE OF TRACKS

Situated in East Nfinneapolis-An
Exhaustive Brief Prepared by
Col. Dodge, Counsel for the
Minneapolis & Western Rail-
way Company-The Case to
ComeBefore the SupremeCourt
Col. W. E. Dodge has prepared his
brief as counsel for the plaintiff in the
case of The Minneapolis Mill Company
and The Western Railway Company vs..
The Minneapolis Il st. Louis Railway
Company and Others. The action was
brought to enjoin the st. Louis road
from interfering with the joint use of
certain railway tracks on the east side
of the river in Minneapolis. The
tracks in question are held under
a grant from the Minneapolis Mill COM
pany since 1878. the grant providing
that w. d. Washourn. the grantee.
might construct track on the land
controlled by the mill company, said
track to be used by the Western Rail-
way company in connection with the
latter. In 1892 this right of the West
ern railway to use the tracks in common
was ratified between the road, Wash
burn and his grantees.
As rejOinder the st. Louis company
claims that by reason of ong-continued
use and prescription it has acquired an
exclusive right and title to the land on
which the tracks are located.
The case comes before the supreme
court Nov. /. The trial court, over
which Judge Lochren presided, ruled in
favor of the plaintiff, and the present
case comes up on an appeal

MINISTER'S MEETINGS.
The CIergymen Hold Their Usual
Monday Conferences.

Monday Conferences.
The Methodist, Baptist and Presby-
terrain ministers held their regular
weekly meetings yesterday forenoon.
The Methodists listened to an address
by Rev. c. P. Hard, N. A., of India, rel
latlve to the missionary work being
done in that country, where DIR. Hard
has been since 1874. He stated there
are 100000 Christians in India, includ-
ing Roman Catholics and PrOtestants.
DR.. Hard will speak this evening at the
Twenty-fourth Street NJ. E. church.
At the conclusion'of his address yester-
day, the ministers appointed a commit

convention of the Missionary Society of
the NJ. E. Church, which will be held at
the wesley NJ. E. church, commencing

The Presbyterian ministers enjoyed
an address by Frederick o.: Coon upon
missionary work in Persia. Mr.. Coon
said that the fierce opposition of the
Mohammedans rendered the work of
the Christian church in Persia difficult.
The Baptist ministers listened to and
discussed paper by Rev. NJ. Geistweit
