The Engine Refused to Move.

Richard Van Horn, of jackson, Mich,
one of the oldest engineers on the Michi-
gan Central railroad, died lately, and
his body was taken TO his former home
at Marshall, Mich. 1t was his last wish
to be buried there, and that his old en-
gine, mine Spot" pull the train. A
special train was furnished by the COM
pany to take numberof his friends and
companions to the scene of the burial,
and was pulled by old ''Nine Spot" AS
the word was given to start the train
the engine would not move. The en-
gineer reversed the lever and threw her
back, but she would not bulge an inch.
After examining the machinery for
some time the engineer found nothing
whatever the matter. Then the old,
seemingly heartbroken machine steamed
away. The acts of "Nine Spot" caused
much comment among railroad men,
and the engineer himself is just little
afraid of her.-Philadelphia Ledger

Humor. of tn. chol.r. scare.

Every serious crisis has its amusing
side. The cholera phase through which
we have been passing has developed
some ludicrous situations. A woman
got in Brooklyn street car one day last
week and sat down next to well dressed

that she hurriedly exchanged her place
for one opposite between man and
woman. One of them, it could not
be determined which, was redolent of
chloride of lime, the fumes of which are
peculiarly sickening to the woman in
question. Out of the frying pan into
fire, she thought, and before she made a
third move she decided to select her
neighbor with care.
A small boy sat in corner. He was
safe, she concluded, and, Drawing the
surprise of the passengers, who could
not understand her restlessness. shc once

camphor assailed her nostrils rs she
seated herself beside the child, but this
was endurable, and she kept still. Pretty
soon a woman opposite leaned over to
the boy.

The serpentine Dance of Old Nile.

follows concerning the new dance:
Numerous young ladies and gentle
men are claiming the honor of invent
ing or first introducing it. They forget
that it is only a development of
Pharaoh's favorite bee dance, still TO
be met with on the banks of the Nile.
1t was brought into prominence about
thirty-fye years ago by Donate, the one
legged dancer at Covent Garden thea
ter. The dance wants figure and per-
sonal beauty first, and arms rather than
legs afterward. The exertion of work
ing the eighty yards of china silk into
graceful folds is about equal to the
muscular exercise involved in a per.
formance with the Indian clubs, and the
foot dancing is necessarily confined to a
small space, for fear of ENHANCEMENT
The serpentine dance would probably be
classed as Spanish.
My correspondent may be right enough
as to the date to which the dance goes
back. am no Psychologist. But he
is in error as to the date of Donate, the
one legged dancer, who must have ap-
peared nearer five and twenty years ago
than five and thirty. Time goes quickly

The boundaries Of oxford.

The custom, which is only observed
at rare intervals, of perambulating the
boundaries of the city of Oxford, Eng
land, was followed this year, and was
of more than usual Importance owing
to the fact that the boundaries had been
largely extended since the last occasion,
when a tour was made six years ago.
The mayor and other members of the
corporation in their robes left the city
buildings at o'clock in the morning,
preceded by band and the city mace

During the day many amusing Incl
dents took place, some of which might
have proved dangerous, At Wolvercote
there was a dispute about the boundary,
and clergyman who opposed the city
forces was somewhat roughly handled.
At the Cherwell punts were used, and

are about five acres of peaches and three
of nectarines. From the peaches he has

peaches, which, at thirteen cents q

him $1,000. 1t will cost him $685. to
harvest this crop and market it, which
will leave him net profit of 81, ,425, or

done nearly as we'll, the difference being
only in the price of the two fruits. Mr..
