Waited In Vain.

The earthquakes few years ago in
Charleston destroyed much property and
some lives. But amid the wild dismay,
horror and confusion there were many
humorous incidents, Of which the follow
ing is fair specimen: One evening
when one Of the first shocks took place
an engaged couple were sitting in the
parlor of one of the houses on the bat
terry. The young gentleman, who was
of scientific turn of mind. at once
thought of the possibility of tidal
wave. He stepped to the window, open
ed it, thrust out his hand and instantly
knew that his worse fears were realized,
for his hand went into water just out
side the window.
He closed the window, returned to his
fancee and told her of the dreadful
truth. As by one impulse they clasped
their arms around each other and stood
in the middle of the room calmly await
ing their doom. They stood long, ex-
pecting the rush of the engulfing water,
but IL did not come. The delay was dis
appointing. for they had made mp their
minds to little drama. At last the de-
lay and suspense became intolerable.
The gentleman again went to the win
dow. A little led hurried examination
of the condition of things showed him
that he had put his hand into an aqua
rum which stood just utside.-Harper's
