An E.traordlnarr colneldenee.

An extraordinary coincidence oc- cured in Fleet street. After the settling at one of the sporting clubs a gentleman went into a restau- rant, where he had a glass of wine with some friends, and then took a cab to the Bank of England. thereat to deposit some money. On count ing the sum he found that he had lost fifty pound note, and at once sped back to the place of entertain ment To look for the missing paper being ignorant both of the number of the note and of the hanson which conveyed him to Threadneedle street.
 Tho search was frmuess. so he promptly chartered another cab to convey him to Scotland Yard. To his joy and surprise his lost treasure was lying on the seat It was the same vehicle in which he had been driven to the bank. This may read like romance; it is merely matter of fact. t.-London Telegraph.

The Fir.t Street Car.

The street car is now an indispen. sable part of every day life. but it's inventor - John Stephenson - still lives at a green old age. respected and honored by all men. Born in this city in the early part of the cen tury, of sturdy Scotch-Irish parent age, Stephenson had served his ap- premiership and set up in business for himself as Q carriage builder when the first street railroad com pany was organized in 1881. It was known as the New York and liar lem railroad; its president was John Mason, of the Chemical National bank. and the other officers were equally well known men. John Stephenson was employed by tue company to design and construct a vehicle of an entirely original type, calculated purely for street car work Mir Stephenson's car. the first street car ever built, when com pleted was accepted by the company and used when the road was opened, Nov. 6, 1892 For this car Mir Ste phenson received a patent signed by Andrew Jackson.

Cleopa,ra's Asp.

There is in the reptile house at the Zoo a specimen of CleopatIa's asp. not, it should be observed. the jew. eled variety found some few months ago in St Johns wood, but an asp of flesh and blood, or perhaps. hay ing regard to its anatomy generally, we should say of skin and bone. This little snake is provided;'sith sand. into which 1t can burrow, a practice to which 1t is addicted in its native haun;s. This position is an extreme ly good one for biting the heel of the traveller, who cannot always retort by bruising the head of the snake. for the animal in question Is one of those many creatures which have a general mode of colorahon approxi- mating to the surroundings among which they live.
 The asp is, like many frequenters of the desert, desert colored. The usually accepted theory about this is that the animals so colored escape detechOn or take mean advantage of their deceptive hues to steal march upon some harmless but mod erately conspicuous beast This snake has pair of little horns upon its head. When it is half buried in the sand these would project and per, haps excite thecuTiosity of some poor wandering rodent who might pay for his inquisitiveneSs with his life. - London News.

Suspended Matter in Flame.

By means of prolonged and ingeni- ous researches a London chemist has now succeeded m demonstrating the long supposed presence of suspended matter in flame question so much discussed by scientists, some holding to one theory and some to another. It now appears that the way this is optically proved Is to condense sun light on the flame, the light being then scattered by the solid particles in an extremely thin layer, both where the beam enters the flame and where it leaves it-it is polarized in the flame of reflection. This phe- nomenon, however, does not occur in a flame where the sodium Is Tn the form of vapor instead of particles New York Sun.

Longevity of Trees.

Professor Abbott estimates the age of the Woodbridge oak at about 2,0O0 years During the Revolution ary war Lafayette and his army rested under its limbs. Its remains are now m form of seats for the Quinnipiac club. I donot know that anybody in all the world cares who the Quinnipiac club may be, but we reverenced the Woodbridge oak An oak in Marion county, Fla, Is reported as measuring over ten feet in diameter and spreading its branches over a diameter of 1Ss feet. A California sequoia, felled in Gala veras county. had a diameter of if teen feet at the height of 125 feet above the earth.
 The German forestry report makes the maximum age of European for est trees to be not above 500 years, except in rare cases The pine Is stated to reach 800 to 700 years; the silver fir attains an age frequently of over 400 years; the birch stops at 200. and the red birch at 250 years. Oaks begin to decay at the heart when about 800 years old, the holly oak excepted, which goes on to above 400. Scotch frs are known to live from 900 to 800 years. The SC quoias, however, are estimated to have covered 1000 years. St Louis Globe Democrat.

"A KISS HE rook.r

A kiss he took and backward look.
 And her heart grew suddenly lighter5 A trifie, you say, to color day;
 Yet the dull gray morn seemed brtghtef For hearts are such that a tender touch
 May hAnish a look of sadness; 4 small. slight thing can make us sing.
 But a froWn will cheek our gladnoss. The cheeriest ray along our way
 Is the little act of Kindness, And the keenest sting some careless thing
 That was done in a moment of blindness. We can hravely face life in home where strife No foothold can discover. And bo lovers still. f we only will
 Though youths bright day is Over An, sharp As swords cut the Onkind words That are far beyond recalling. When a face lies hid meath coffin lid. And bitter tears are falling.

Western Students in Eastern Colleges.
 Among the many things over
 which their has been a friendly
 rivalry between Harvard and Yale
 for years is the matter of drawing
 students from the west. Twenty
 years ago Yale had much the larger number of students from the western states, the catalogues for 1S7l-s showing the presence at Yale of S7 students from Ohio. Indiana, nli- nois, Kentucky. Missouri. Wisconsin. Iowa and Michigan, and at Harvard of S9 students from the same states, though Harvard had none from Ms souri or Iowa. Ohioand Illinois led in the number, the former sending S5 to Yale and % to Harvard, and Illinois sending 2l to Yale and to Harvard. Ten years later Harvard showed a very marked increase. Though hay ing none in Michigan she had in the other states previously named, with the addition of Minnesota, 7l stu dents. while the number at Yale from the same territory was SS.
 As before, the majority of the stu dents came from Ohio and Illinois the former sending = to Harvard and 27 to Yale, while Illinois sent IS l to Harvard and s to Yale. At the end of the third decade, in the year 1S9l-2. each university showed Q large increase, the ratio at Harvard 1 being greater than that at Yale, In | that year Yale had 15S students from the states named and Harvard | 156. Ohio sent 36 to Harvard and S7 to Yale, Illinois A to Harvard and | 51 to Yale Missouri IS to Harvard | and g to Yale, and Minnesota, which twenty years before had no boys in either university, sent IS to Harvard and F to Yale.

What Weeds Are

A weed is a plant that grows in abundance out of desired limits. Any plant may become a weed by escaping from cultivation. Many plants that with us are highly es- teemed in other countries grow as weeds, while, on the other hand, our weeds are in other countries some times highly prized. The correct use of the word depends altogether on circumstances. Exchange.
