"MOon, Ahoy!"

Regarding the seamanship of one of
the members of the Massachusetts naval
reserve: The incident occurred during
the trip on the cruiser San Francisco,
and voluminous as was the commenda-
tory report of their doings which was
sent to the navy department. it did not
include this INCIDENT.
On the second night that the reserves
were at sea one of the amateur tars
was on the watch. He was Boston
man. The night was clear and beauti-
full. Myriads of stars twinkled in the
heavens, but there was no moon. Sud-
denly the reserve sang out:
Light ahoy!"
"Where away% asked the officer of the
deck.
"Far, far away" replied the would be
man-o-war's man.
When the officer had recovered from
the shock occasioned by this unseaman-
like answer he looked over the rail in
the direction pointed out by the man
from Boston. Then he had another fit.
The stern discipline which prevails on a
cruiser at sea did not allow him to swear,
but there was a word of meaning in the
way in which he growled out: whats
the matter with you? Can't you recognize
the rising moon when you see it?"
"Moonl Moonw stammered the en-
bryo sea dog. 81 beg your pardon, sir"
Then he shouted, as if making amends
for his error, Moon, ahoyr"-Boston

Joe JefTerson's Boxing Lesson.

Rising young actors usually guard
their positions with jealous eye, and
during the early life of Joseph Jefferson
he was no exception to the rule. When
under the management of Dion Bouci-
cault, "The Octoroon" was produced,
and in the announcement of the papers
Jefferson's name did not appear. Being
one of the principals in the drama, he
naturally felt indignant, and 30 he sent
his part to the theater with note in
which he resigned from his engagement
until new arrangement could be en-
tered into. About this time Jefferson
was suffering from dyspepsia and con-
ceived the idea that the gentle exercise
Of boxing would relieve him. He en-
gagged professor of the 'manly art"
and his boxing lessons were given in the
drawing room of the house where he was
living.
The day following his resignation he
and the professor were indulging in a
"fierce exchange" when, Suddenly look
ing over his opponents shoulder, he dis
covered the amazed faces of Dion Bouci-
cault and William Stuart. They stood
aghast at the scene and fancied that
Jefferson intended settling his difficult
ties by an appeal to science and had Sc
cured the services Of professional
bruiser to assist him. Their alarm was
soon set at rest by Jefferson, who dis
missed the pugilist and came to more
explicit understanding without the aid
of the Marquis of Queensberry. y.-Phila-

More Haste, Less Speed.

It was p. m, and Herr August Glim-
mermann stood ready. equipped in trav-
cling costume. He put on his gloves and
his hat. snatched up his plaid, turned the
gas off and was about to leave the room,
preparatory to starting on long jour-
ney through Germany and Italy, when
in the dark his sleeve swept over the Ia
BILE, in consequence of which something
dropped on the floor, which. to judge
from the sound, must have been q coin.
Although during his absence no one
could enter the room, as he was in the
habit of locking it and taking the key
with him, yet he thought it better not to
leave the money lying about, but secure
it In his purse.
He therefore relighted the gas, and
found that the coin was only copper of
the value of 1 penny sterling. Putting
it in his purse, he hurried out of the
room and quickly locked the door, for
it was just striking 8, and his train left
at 9:1s, SO that he had only just time to
catch it. Eight months later Glimmer-
mann, on his return from Italy, I'M
locked the door of his room and went in.
Hal what is that? The gas was burning
merrily just as he left it, after lighting
it to seek the dropped coin, he having
forgotten to turn it off again in his hur-
ry, and couple Of days later he was
presented with gas bill to the amount
of 81 5s. 3ld.
"Hang it," he said, with a sigh, on
paying the money, ''the old proverb. 'Fes-

"Oh-ah--I'm thinkin it is" Then
Dick stroked his chin and tore up the
sod with his heels. Its fine thing,
a moon, Maggie, isn't it" Dick at last
found words to say, in order to break
the monotony and gain time, but with
out being able to explain why he had
said so.

looking at him with the tails of her
eyes.

being in an entirely different direction

A Balloon Screw.

Some very interesting experiments
have been recently made by NJ. Mallet
respecting the action of screw in pro-
ducing vertical propulsion in balloon,
the results of which have been presented
to the Academy. The screw was de-
signed and set to work by M. Langlois
de Saumier. 1t has diameter of "
feet and turns round vertical shaft
fixed by two clamps to one of the sides
of the car. M. Mallet succeeded, by i'm
parting to the screw velocity of 100
revolutions minute, in raising the bal.
loon, which has capacity of $4,000 Gu
bic feet, through a vertical space in the
same time of 383 feet.
Frequent repetitions of the same ex-
pertinent invariably gave the same re-
suits. AS the screw revolve9. it neces-
sarily caused the balloon to rotate also,
but the movement was not found to pro-
duce any inconvenience, since the veloc-
ity did not exceed 0.04 of complete
revolution in second. The author con-
cluded his communication by a series of
observations upon this particular mode
of propulsion, pointing out that it was
exceedingly well adapted for purposes of
scientific experimentation Civil.

SerInagur Cashmere.

Rickety wooden houses, many stories
high, seemed to lean all round us in
every possible direction, each unlike
its neighbor in color and height, though
nearly all with beautifully carved shut
ters, hanging in picturesque angles
from windows, innocent of all other
protection. In the warm sunlight, the
brown and white tones ripened into
rich shades of yellow and red, and here
and there pale pink house, with en-
erald green window frames, threw in
a strong dash of color, and over its
neighbours dark carved shutters would
hang strings of red tomatoes drying
in the hot sun.
Most of the houses seemed full of
people who looked out listlessly from
behind their many colored draperies as
we passed. Others, more curious,
crowded together on overhanging ver-
andas, which had absolutely mo visi-
BILE means of support, but whose inse-
curity seemed in no way to affect the
laughing, chattering group of people
upon them. Every here and there the
irregular line of houses was broken by
a narrow street, winding away into al
most black darkness, SO sharp was the
sontrast between it and its sunny sur
roundings.
Serinagur has six bridges crossing the
Jhelum at various intervals, and be-
tween two of these all fishing is prohib-
tied by the maharajah who nominally
governs the land, the reason given be-
ing that the soul of late maharajah
has passed into fish, who resides in
this part Of the river !-Cornhill Mag
