A singular Rxperienoe.

From the Lewiston CMe) Journal.
A Penobscot county doctor, some time
ago had a strange experience IN thought
transference, or something Of the kind.
He had been visiting a patient IN Pisca-
taquis county, and was returning in the
darkness. when his horse stumbled and
fell. Fortunately. the doctor WAS not
thrown out, ana the only thing broken was
one thill. This he was able TO mend so as
to continue his journey. A. he drove up

high beauty and very great cost. One set
of diamonds which she wears on state oc-
Casions has been valued at 900.
All the Chinese wives, from the highest
to the lowest, are brought up to be the
treasUrers and bookkeepers of their hus-
bands households; the requisite knowledge
is a portion of the education of every
woman, no matter the class to which she
belongs. Lady Ii is all this, and much
more. Besides taking care of the domestic
expenditure of a home in which the ser
wants and attendants number over 1,000
she is credited with being the financial
secretary of her distinguished spouse in
nearly all the numerous relations, per
sonal, civil and military, in which he is
engaged.
Chang-Ste Turg, in referring to her,
once said in the covert way which is de-
manded by Chinese etiquette, that Ii
Hung Chang was one of the favored NOR
tails to whom a great household was a
source Of strength and not a weakness, -
which is about the highest compliment Il
gentleman in that queer country is per-
mitted to pay to another mans wife.
Next TO her husband her particular
pride is her son, the young Marquis Ii,
who although a very young man accord
ing to Chinese cannons, being under 50
years, has distinguish himself at the
great examinations in literature, general
ship government and diplomacy. The
Lady LIS wardrobe includes over 1000
coats and 200 pairs of trouserettes, of the
richest material and costliest workman
ship. She owns over 500 fur robes, nearly
all of which would excite the envy of a
Murray Hill belle.
She has one robe which was presented
to her by the viceroy of the three Man
churian provinces, and which is made
of the fur of unborn squirrels. This is
so rare and difficult to. obtain that 1t is
simply luxury beyond all price.
Lady Ii has a beautiful complexion
for woman Of her years. She bathes
twice a day in oil of orange and acacia
blooms, and although she is small-foot-
ed and cannot walk about much, makes
a point of being carried by her chair
coolies. She is particularly artistic in
her toilet and dresses her hair in fifty
different ways. Her favorite method is
In the shape of the Faithful Dragoness. %

creature is an improvement on ordinary
griffins, having a much more graceful

mouth a pure white lotus flower, which

on their marriage at least one dress in
velvet in this design. There are also
ribbed in open work black and white stock
ings in a woven tiny meshed stripe called
GreCian, though made in Nottingham, that
are very fascinating. Each pair has the
cipher "A, surmounted by n princesses'
crown. embroidered in red as marking.
There is also a quality of Nottingham
silk and wooden underwear of a light,
warm, durable and exquisitely soft kind,
marked again with the princess cipher
and crown.
1t IS interesting TO know that the prin-
cess has many gloves of glace kid, with
plain stitching matching the kid, and that
her favorite colors are yellows, grays and
tans. For indoor wear are a goodly Sc
lection of perfect" fitting suede gloves,
in lovely shades, prettily and aptly called
champagne shades, as well as many white,

some pairs of English bucksl1in gloves
made in England and beautifully soft,

view which followed with Mr. GIadstone's

A ROYAL TRoUsSEAU.
Dainty Gifts Prepared for the Princess

FROM the Boston Herald.
The items for the royal trousseau are
always of general interest and those of
the Princess Alix are none the less so.
on account of the sad circumstances that
surround this marriage. Even American
women will be interested to know about
them. There are many pairs Of very fine
silken stockings in pale pink, pale blue,
silvery tone Of gray and most delicate
French gray and green, TO be worn with
evening dresses. These are all embroid-
cred in fine little raised sprays. with pale
col brings in silk, either contrasting In hue
or admirably harmonizing with the stock
ings themselves. For ordinary everyday
wear there are liberal numbers of black
spun silk, thick and durable, and having
a very pretty light open-work design up
the center of the foot. Many are of fine
black silk, for indoor wear with smart
afternoon dresses, and they are embroid-
cred IN a small Paisley design, and some
in wild flower sprays, called respectively
"chintz" and Dolly Warden" and are
likely to be popular this season. It is nice
to reflect that these are OF English make,
and that the embroidery has been wrought
by the nimble fingers of Nottingham
cottagers. There are some pairs OF a de
sign In broken lines Of bright color cross
ing a black ground, such as red and
bronze lines on black and paie blue anG
yellow lines on a similar somber back
ground. Many pairs in silver gray have
lines and dots through them of paler gray

to another. 1t was In this way that the
motorman was flung against the door
Those who have had experience take the
brake off first and then turn the con-
troller in starting, or reverse the order
of the operation in stopping.
Just as telegraphing and telephoning
are much interfered with in wet weather,
so the run of electric cars is only possible
at the expense Of a great deal of extra
power, which is literally thrown away.
The wires are literally laden with water,
which absorbs the electricity. As the
trolley slips along under the wire II sweeps
the water Off, and n considerable portion,
as already described, runs down the rope
into the car.
A passenger may get a faint shock in
wet weather the moment he steps on the
car.
It often happens in stormy weather that
there are a series of flashes to be seen
wherever wires cross This is due partly
to bad insulation, and, also, in measure,
to the aid which the water as a conductor
affords for the collection of current at
points where the flow OF water Is unnter-
rupted. on the tracks under the wheels
Il similar phenomenon may DO often oh
served, even in dry weather. The dirt
raises the car off the wheels, and the CON
tact being thus destroyed, the current
leaps across the intervening space and
there is minute scintillation of steel.
In foggy weather the thin coating OF
water on the outside Of the car will some
times carry the current Dry, warm
weather favors geod insulation, and so
none OF these phenomenon Is noticeable
except the one of the fash under the
wheels OF the electric car.
The trolley wire is the lower Of three
parallel wires. The two upper wires,
which are In the same horizontal plane,
are merely guard wires TO prevent tel
ephone or telegraph wires coming into
contact with the live trolley wire. This
precaution is costly but very necessary
one as experience has taught. Cases
are plentiful IN which a live trolley wire
coming into contact with a telephone
or telegraph wire has wrecked instru-
ments, started fires, and injured people Sc
riously.
The curves across the street which act
as guys in steadyng and supporting the
trolley wire are spoken Of as the span
wires" In case they are not perfectly
insulated, and particularly If wooden
poles are used to carry the wires "a shock
may be received by simply touching the
pole. II iron poles are used the chances
Of even a faint shock are slight, as the
pole itself conducts the current to the
earth.

sharA LORE From Hawaii.

From the Pacific Commercial Advertiser.
A tiger shark was caught recently Off
the coast of Maui. near kaauapalt. Inside
il were eighteen little sharks, about Two
feet long. This ovoviviparOus character
istic of some species of sharks has prob
ably given rise to many Of the Hawaiian
superstiuons about these monsters of the
sea. Some years ago monster female
shark was caught near the island OF
Kauai. Inside of her were found hfty-two
Young sharks, each of them about two
feet long.
II is not known 10 many that the terrible
teeth OF the shark are flexible and. at the
win of the FISH. lie fat in rows, 50 that
no teeth are apparent As it happens that

w ere adopted by vote:
WHEREAS: EDDIE Trigg, aged IA
| years, was a devoted and consistent
member of the church, and was a
bright and exemplary member OF the
Sunday school.
! THEREFORE, Be it resolved. that in the
death of our dear little comrade. the
church has sustained an irrepressible
loss and the Sunday school one OF its
brightest, most promising and devoted
scholar, who was always punctual in
attendance, and thoroughly prepared
with his lesson, aud was an example
worthy of all imitation. His place in
the class can never be supplied and H.,
will he sadly missed by all of his class
mates and teacher, and his untimely
death will be mourned by the entire
Sunday school We tender our sncer,
coincidence to his affectiopate parents
in this hour Of great berea velreut and
pray that they may be comforted by
the consolation of the beautiful
christian life u dear little Eddie.
REsoLyED: that these resolutions b.
spread upon the minutes Of the Sunday
school and copy of them be sent t.
Eddie's parents. and that the Cantor
papers and the New Orleans Christian
Advocate be requested to publish Iii
same.
