The Tidal Disaster Of 1859.

The biggest solitary wave ever
known was that caused by the Peru
Wan earthquake of August 18, 1868.
In no other instance, we are assured,
has it been known that well-marked
wave of enormous proportions has
been propagated over the largest
ocean tract Of the globe by an earth
quake whose action has been limited
to a relatively small region not stu
ated in the center, but on one side of
the wide area traversed by the wave.
At africa it was so feet high, and en-
veloped the town, carrying two war
ships nearly mile beyond the rail-
way to the north Of the town. The
single sea travelled northward and
westward. It's height at San Pedro,
California, was 60 feet. 1t inundated
the smaller members of the Sand
witch group, $500 miles away, and
reached Yokohama, in Japan, in
the early hours of the morning,
after taking in New Zealand on the
way. 1t spent itself finally in the
South Atlantic, having trsversed
nearly the whole globe.-[ Ashton

STRANGE THINGS DO HAPPEN.
Was This . coInoIdsnes. Or was u
Something Still Stranger.


Something Still Stranger.
What is the explanation of it?
The facts are attested by several reli-
able persons.
One of the most prominent railroad
men in the State and receiver for o
great corporation was q guest at the
Grand Pacific Hotel. This was but q
day or two ago. While he was at the
hotel his son and daughter came to
take dinner with him. That evening
he went to Mr.. Paul Cores, the clerk,
and said, "Charge me with two extra
dinners.
Mr.. Cores knew the daughter was
at the hotel, but he had not seen the
son, and for some reason supposed
that girl friend of the daughter had
been the third person who took din
ner at the hotel. There is O rule Of
the house that the name of every
guest must be entered on the register.
So Mr.. Cores opened the book to put
down two names. He just wrote the
name of Miss, the daughter.
Then he thought for q moment and
wrote below it Miss Warburton,
Cleveland" OF course Warburton
was not the name he wrote, and
Cleveland was not the town, but
they will do just as well, and in every
other particular the story as told will
be exactly true to the facts. He
didn't know why he wrote Miss
Warburton, Cleveland" He simply
thought up" fictitious name and
put it on the register, as he had often
done before.
Next day when the guest came to
pay his bill the cashier looked up the
account and said: You have been
here three days and thsre are two ex-
ira dinners charged-one for your
daughter and one for Miss Warbur-
ton"
"Miss Warburton2"
Eyes, Miss Warburton of Cleve-
land. Is there something wrong?"
1.-Two extra dinners is all right, but
there's something wrong. How did
that name get on the register?"
81 don't know, I'm sure"
"Well, have certain reason for
asking, and / wish you would look it
up"
So the clerks were questioned, and
Mr.. Cores said he wrote down the
name.
But how did you happen to get
that name and that address,"
II don't know, I'm sure. / wrote
the first thing that came into my
head"
"That's the most extraordinary
thing / ever heard in all my life."
They did not venture to ask ques-
tions, but he told them any way.
Miss Warburton of Cleveland was
dear friend of my daughter. She
died about three years ago under very
sad circumstances. When my son
and daughter were with me at dinner
the other evening we were talking Of
her, and l dare say my son and
daughter, whom / left up in the par
lor, were talking of her at the very
moment that name was written. I'm
sure didn't mention her name in
the hearing of any clerk"
mo" said Mr.. Cores. 1t just
came to me-"
Then they fell to wondering
whether it was simply an unexplain-
able coincidence or beautiful case
of thought transference.-[Chica 60
