Negro SuDerStitiOOS.

Among the superstitions of southern
negroes are those which make it a most
unfavorable thing to see a black cat
crossing ones path, or to turn back
without making 'cross' in the street,
road or path. The belief in witches
is perhaps more general than any other,
and an ex-congressman tells of case in
this section within the past 80 years in
which a witch was killed in a very
strange fashion. A negro called on a
witch doctor, very old woman, and
was told that the cause of the trou bic
was witch and that she must be kill
ed; that the only way possible to thus
put her out of the way was to go into
the woods and cut the figure of per-
son on the bark Of big pine tree, mark
a cross on the body and shoot this with
a silver bullet, the cross representing
the witch's heart. The shooting was
duly done in the presence of quite a
number of persons. This occurred in
the northern part of this county. c.
dar balls are carried in the pockets as
protection against witches. The ne
gro belief in these is certainly fully
matched by that of white men who car
ry in their pockets buckeyes and Irish
potatoes, or who wear thick iron rings
on their fingers as preventive of rheu-
matism. Washington Star.

Ex-Empress Eugenie.

The ex-Empress Eugene has settled
down into the solitude which best ena-
bles her to endure her memorable and
cumulative sorrows. Her tall, sad fig
ure goes in and out among US with only
the recognition Of silent sympathy. The
empress likes to have communication
with as few people as possible. For
instance, when she shops-she does her
own shopping-she likes to be waited
on by the same salesman always. l
was witness of an incident of this sort
the other day. The empress walked
into we'll known west end shop and
asked for Mr.. -, naming one of the
head men. She was told he was out,
whereupon she remarked that she would
call again and went away. was told
that she certainly would come again ;
that Mr.. - always waited on her,
and that she would not be served by
any one else.-London Western Mail.

A Matter of Business.

MIR. Bong said the secretary of
the Fearful Accident Insurance compa-
ny, "be sure and drop in at old Cur
mudge's as you pass this morning and
express your sympathy over the loss of
his brother in the railroad accident yes
terday. Express mine also to him.
but old Curmudge had no brother
in the accident" said the canvasser.
''What has that to do with it?" said
the secretary cheerily. ''All he can do
is to tell you so. ...~...E -- -.
but it might unnecessarily alarm
him. persisted the canvasser.
:: That's the point; that's exactly the
point, = returned the secretary cheerily.
Alarm him as much as possible. His
own policy runs out next month, and it
is one of our duties to remind our pa
irons that in the midst of life we are
surrounded by accidents. - London

PLAYING Cards.

The invention of playing cards has
been attributed to the Chinese, Hindoos.
Arabians and Romans, but cards as
now used were invented by Jacques
Gringonneur, painter, in Paris in the
fourteenth century. They were sup
posed to have been first made for the
amusement of Charles VI of France,
who was deranged. The French had
particular names for the 10 court cards.
The four kings were David, Alexander,
Caesar and Charles; the four queens,
Angine, Esther, Judith and Pallas; the
four knaves or knights, Ogier the Dane,
Lancelot, La Hire and Hector de Gar
land. Cards seem originally, however,
to have been taken to England direct
from Spain, having probably been in
troduced into that country by the Moors;
the clubs, in Spanish cards, not being
trefoils as with us, but cudgels-that is,
bastos- the spades or swords, espadas.
They were at first stamped from wood
blocks in outline and filled in by hand,
but after the invention of engraving the
best artists engraved them on copper
and struck them off at once. Colum-
bines were spades; rabbits, clubs pinks.
diamonds, and roses, hearts, Human
figures opposed to those of flowers and
animals were the ancestors of court
cards.-Brooklyn Eagle.

GENIUS is INDIFFERENT.
Surroundings Have Naught to Do W.th the |
Thread of Thought.

Surroundings Have Naught to Do with the
Thread of Thought.
It might be conjectured perhaps that
Scott's and Byron's genus was favored
by the circumstances Of their birth,
that the wild scenes in which Scott e
infancy was passed, and the local leg
ends with which his head was filled de-
termined him to ballad writing, and
that the ballad writing led naturallyin
its turn to romance, and that the high
station and undisciplined liberty Of
Byron's childhood fostered that passion
ate self will and brooding imagination
which showed themselves in his fierce,
scornful and moody verse. This, we
say, might perhaps be conjectured with
some proba ability. and the like might be
said Of Wordsworth S infancy.
But how shall we maintain that the
conditions of Keats cockney birth Ill
livery stable or his education in dis
secting room favored the growth of that
most delicate and rich type Or almost
Hellenic clearness and beauty of imag-
ination? And how shall we maintain
that Dickens mental task in the cork
ing of backing bottles fostered the
growth of that wonderful humor and
that microscopic accuracy of vision
which filled the world with laughter
and with inimitable caricature such as
no comedy, not even Moliere's. had an
ticipated?
Again, VINO would have ventured to
predict that wild, despotic. Irish evan
gelical spirit like Patrick Bronte, ban
ished to the bleakest of Yorkshire moors,
would have been the father Of children
SO eager, original and vivid in their rev.
cries as those who eventually produced
Bells genius? So far as we know any
thing Of the origin Of genius. that orr
gin is usually surprise.
1t is the rare exception, and not the
rule. when we find Chatham succeeding
in producing such a dollhouse flower as
William Pitt, or James Mill succeeding
in celebrating a specimen more perfect
than himself of thinker Of his own
type, i'll the studious, diligent, diffuse,
lucid and rather dreary logician and
economist who left his mark on the
English philosophy of the third quarter
OF this century. Nor do we ever find in
rare instances of this sort the higher
kinds of original genius. Pitt and John
Stuart Mill were considerable triumphs
Of training for purpose, but that pur-
pose was a very limited enc and had
none of the largeness and freshness of
vitality which attaches to original gen
ius.-London Spectator.

THE DOGEERA COMMISSION.

It Is Said to Be Doing Some Good work
Overhauiing the departments.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-There are some
indications Of dissatisfaction with the
Dc:kery commission, the joint commits
sion Of the senate and house appointed
to investigate the departments. Sena-
tor German has on two or three occa-
SONS IN the senate shown some impa-
t1ence concerning the reports of the COM
mission and its efforts to shape legisla-
ton, and other senators and members as
well have complained mildly with the
tendency of the commission to
interfere with the work OF reg
ularly constituted committees of
the two houses. The commission is be-
ginning, on this account, and because of
the stir it is making i'll the departments,
to attract share of attention which had
not attached to it until recently.
Has Unlimited Expense Money.
Those who have been giving attention
to the subject find that the commission
has been given not. only big task to
overhaul all the departments but that
it is authorized to draw upon the treas
ury for unlimited expenses, without sub
hitting its accounts to any official, or
without obtaining all appropriation
from congress. The committee now has
three experts employed, J. W.
