AN OPTICAL ILLUSION.
Curious Double Reflections Seen Through
Railway Car Window.

Curious Double Reflections Seen Through
Railway Car Window.
Curious things are sometimes de-
veloped by double reflections in the
presence Of plenty of glass to keep
up the reflection. This is what a
woman saw a few days ago as she
sat in her car in the Grand Central
station waiting for the train to pull
out:
On the left of her train, and very
close to it, was q second train. The
seats of her own car had the usual
red plush cushions, and those in the
other were bright blue. At the right
of the observer, and in the same car,
sat young woman lounging care
lessly back and reading a magazine.
The observer looked out through the
window on her left into the CORE
spending car of the other train.
There was also a young woman loll-
ing back on the blue plush cushions
and reading g magazine. A moment
before the seat had been empty.
The observer was struck by the
resemblance between this young
woman and the one at her right.
She looked across her own car. It
was the same young person, but the
one in her car was actual, the other
was the reflection. Yet the reflected
figure sat not in a red plush seat as
the former did, but on the actual
blue plush seat with which that car
was furnished. Yet the figure
seemed perfectly solid, and no
glimpse Of the blue plush was seen
where the shadow body touched the
seat.
AS the curious observer looked two
men came into the empty car and
seated themselves in the very seat
occupied by the half reclining figure.
The first man slid over toward the
window without disturbing the re-
fection. The second one set down
squarely where the girl was sitting,
and here was the strange part of it.
The figure showed no signs Of dissp-
pearing, and there was then present
ed the figure of the young girl lean
ing back and calmly reading, with
man sitting soidly on her lap and
leaning forward.
And the reflected figure of the girl
was just as clear and distinct as the
real figure Of the man. Below the
seat both the real and unreal were
greatly mixed. It was a confused
mingling of trouser cloth and skirt
cloth. The two bodies seemed aetu-
ally occupying the same space.
It was thoroughly perplexing, and
the woman was glad when the train
slid away and the picture dissolved.

An evening of rare pleasure is in
store for the people of this communi-
ty on Friday, 30th inst. The Nsw
York Celebrities, frst-class concert
company, will give an entertainment
in the Institute hall, and everybody
should 90 to hear them. This COM
pany, as a rule, does not visit town
of this size, but as they have no en-
gagement for Friday evening, they
were induced to come to Manning.
All of the members of this company
are musical artists, and money spent
to hear them will not be thrown
away. The following notice from a
Pennsylvania newspaper will give
our readers an idea what they may
expect:

MOST ARTISTIC CONCERT.
One of the musical treats of the
season, and one which will stand out
prominently for many seasons to
come, was the concert in Y. N. c..
Auditorium last evening by the New
York Celebrities. Every number
was rendered in most excellent style.
Miss Van Cortlandt is a soprano OF
marvellous voice. Her tones are as
sweet as a birds, and yet powerful
from the highest to the lowest note.
Mr.. Towns baritone was also a won
derful surprise to the audience, and
many who have heard the most noted
vocalists said they never heard his
equal. A most delightful number
was the duet by Miss Van Cortlandt
and Mr.. Towns, with flute obligato
by Mr.. Hentschei. 1t was one OF the
sweetest numbers on the program.
Mr.. Hentschel, the flute soloist,
played with rare skill, his execution
excelling anything ever heard in
Wilkesbarre. Such combination of
running notes seemed impossible for
the instrument. Miss Cady, the
pianiste, although very young, is a
graduate of the most noted institu-
tions and showed her excellent train
ing. A return date would probably
fill the Auditorium.

Funeral Garlands.

=
A custom prevailed and continued
even down to recent years Of making
funeral garlands on the death Of
young unmarried women of unblem-
ished character. These garlands were
made sometimes of metal and some
times of natural flowers or ever
greens and commonly having white
glove in the center on which was in
scribed the name and initials and age
of the deceased. This garland was
laid on or carried before the coffin
during its passage to the grave and
afterward frequently hung up in the
church, generally being suspended
from the roof. It was usual in the
primitive church to place crowns of
flowers on the heads of deceased vir-
gins. Westminster Gazette.
