Their LITTLE RusE WORKED.
The Bride and Groom Came Back and
Shook Out the Rice.

! The Bride and Groom Came Back and
Shook Out the Rice.
Apropos of the hue and cry against
rice throwing at weddings, a little
story is told of ono of the recent
brides living not many miles from
Brookline Deciding to guard against
| this particular form of warfare, one
of the members of the family had
taken the precaution on the evening
of the eventful day of locking up the
pantry, and when at the close of the
reception the self appointed commit
tee of ushers and bridesmaids started
on their search for the time honored
article they were confronted by the
| insurmountable obstacle of locked
and barred door.
The best man volunteered to sup
| ply the demand for rice from the
pantry of his own home, which was
only a few rods away, and soon re-
turned, bringing with him all he had
been able to collect. This ammuni-
ton was divided among the little
army of besiegers, who then gath
cred at the foot of the stairs and bid
ed their time.
At last quick steps were heard in
the upper hall. Somebody called
out, They're coming and two fly
ing figures sped down the staircase
and out at the front door, almost
hidden from sight by the thick, white
shower which Immediately enveloped
them, lodging in every available
nook and Granny of their clothing.
Some of the more adventurous spir-
its rushed after them into the dark
ness, throwing the last handfuls of
rice that remained in through the
carriage windows.
Pleased with their success, they re-
turned to the house and were pictrr-
ing to themselves the sensation that
the rice bedecked couple would make
at the hotel for which they were des-
tined, when suddenly a carriage was
heard to drive up to the door, the
bride and bridegroom entered and
disappeared into one of the empty
rooms before the astonished group
could realize what had happened. A
few minutes later they again
emerged, serene and smiling, and
freed from all evidence of the late
fray, and proceeded leisurely to take
their second departure, while the
now empty handed and discounted
guests were fain to own themselves
fairly outwitted by this clever ruse
on the part of the enemy.-Boston

A Remarkable Case of psrchio Power.


A friend of mine who is quite well
known in literary circles, but who is
not willing that her name be given,
related to me a short time ago a
striking experience. She requested
a friend in whom she had great con-
fidence and who possessed a certain
degree of physic power to try and
see where she was and what she was
doing on a certain evening The two
individuals were many hundred miles
apart. The friend in striving to ac-
complish this feat fell into pro-
found trance, in which he was found
by friends, who thought him dead
and had him medically treated.
When he recovered, he wrote his
friend, saying: "Atsuch an hour you
were in your room A visitor was
announced. He was a person had
never seen, but I will describe him
to you" He then gave detailed de-
scription of the caller. All the facts
were exactly as stated. d.-Arena.

The DOG AT THE STATION.
An Illustration of How Lasting the Af's.

An Illustration of How Lasting the Affec-
tion of Canine May Be.
IAN instance of animal affection
came to my notice two years ago, !"
said Aquilla Fleischman, instructor
of physics in the University of Kan
sas. 1t was on the occasion of Pres
ident Jordan's leaving the state uni
versity of Indiana, where | Twas then
a student, to assume the presidency
of the Leland Stanford university at
Pasadena, Cal. While president of
the Indiana university Dr. Jordan Sc
cured a fine st. Bernard pup and took
good care to raise it properly. The
dog soon became proficient in many
ways under the tutelage of Dr.. Jor-
dan and seemed fairly to- worship its
master Nightly the dog could be
seen in the Bloomington postofice
waiting its turn when the mail for
the president would be handed out
inclosed in leathern pouch. With
this pouch the dog would trot away
toward the residence of the presi-
dent, and woe to any one who at
tempted to bar its progress.
''Dr Jordan on leaving presented
the dog to Professor Hoffman of the
college. At first the dog was disin-
clined to part with his master, and
upon meeting DR.. Jordan in the
street would turn away from Profess
or Hoffman and follow after. Being
driven away once or twice, however,
it made no further attempts at fol
lowing him. On the occasion of the
doctors departure Professor Hoff-
man, along with the other mem
bers of the faculty, went to the
depot. The dog journeyed with him.
1t was here that DR.. Jordan stopped
and patted the dog on the head and
then entered the cars The dog
watched wistfully for the reappear-
ance of the good doctor, but in vain.
''Soon after this Professor Hoff-
man noticed that his dog was absent
at a certain period in the day. The
operator at the depot also noticed the
daily visits of the dog, to the station
on the arrival and departure of the 2
p. m. train. Being informed as to
whom the dog belonged he sent
word, and Professor Hoffman next
day watched the strange sight. The
dog came, expecting the return of its
former master, and waited patiently
for the approach of the train. As
the train neared the depot, it would
prick up its ears and observe the ar
rivals. 1t was only when the train
had passed out of sight that the dog
would depart. It was really a touch
ing scene and shows the depth of an
imal affection. st. Louis Globe

Wanted to Send a sample.

Now and then some neat little story
turns up in a telegraph Office. Of
course every one is familiar with that
of the lady who wrote message to
her sister in faraway city to:the eff
feet thatsh could not match a certain
shade of blue silk, pinned sample
to the blank, added the words, ''This
is the nearest I can come to it," and
requested that sample, message and
all be sent at once by wire.
When the operator mildly suggest
ed that he was unable to transmit
the sample. she of course became an
cry and promptly denounced the man
and Professor Morse's invention as a
snare and delusion.-New York

and leaves his hat in it as notice
that he has staked out his claim, and
then returns with a cup of coffee in

a sign that he is careless of his per-

Hunting Leopards In India.

Mr.. Simson says that he has hunt
ed 1eopards with dogs, and has been
at several such hunts with other peo-
pies dogs. But dogs are either too
timid or too plucky, and the plucky
ones that go at the leopard get killed
Still the dogs help to find the leop-
ard, and it seems that they might
have been used with more advantage
in seeking for the man eating leop-
ard But to use dogs efectually the
sportsman must be on foot.
There is no chance of a good COM
bination of dogs with elephants, for
the latter hate the dogs and will run
away from them, and the dogs mis-
trust the elephants and decline to
hunt Finally, no use seems to have
been made of trackers, or of seeking
for the leopard by its footprints on
the mud after rain. Professional
trackers are almost unknown in Ben
gal, but an Englishman fond of sport
soon teaches himself how to track,
and can impart the knowledge to one
