The Shade He Wanted.

Delacroix, the painter, was walking
out one day in Paris with friend OF
his, when he fell into brown study.
What is up with you now?" said the
friend.
II can't get a certain shade of vel,
low" replied the artist.
"What sort of Yellow"
Just then a cab drove past.
THE very thing!' the painter gasped
out. Stop stop!"
II am engaged" the cabby replied,
without stopping.
Delacroix started in pursuit and at q

The Duke of York Is a Brick.

Several weeks ago one of the boys at
tending the Queen Elizabeth grammar
school at Kingston, Logan by name,
wrote privately to the Duke of York and
suggested that he should use his infiu-
ence to secure the boys of the royal
school an additional weeks holiday at
midsummer as an appropriate way Of
celebrating the recent auspicious mar
riage. The Duke of York appears to
have approved of the idea, for few
days ago the governors of the grammar
school were surprised to receive letter
from Sir Francis de Winton stating that
his royal highness would be pleased if
they would grant the asked for holiday.
Nothing was known by the masters or
other authorities of the request made by
the boy till the letter was received from
Sandringham. At a meeting of the gov
ernors it was unanimously agreed to ac-
cede to the request. The announcement
was received with ringing cheers for the
Duke and Duchess of York.-London

Long Walk of a somnamburist.

Mrs. Jennie Finkin of Eighth and
Spruce streets, Camden, was found wan
dering on the streets at o'clock yester-
day morning by Officer Frederick
Voight at Broadway and Bridge avenue
The woman was attired in a wrapper,
and her hair was hanging loosely down
her back. She was walking slowly, and
when the officer approached her side he
was astonished to hear her snoring,
although her eyes were open. He ad-
dressed her in low tones, but received
no answer. He then grabbed her by the
arm. This aroused her, and when she
found that she was on the street she fell
to the pavement from astonishment.
She recovered in a few minutes and ac-
cepted the protection of the officer to as
sist her home. Mrs Finkin is said to be
subject to attacks of somnambulism
When she was found by the officer, she
was nearly two miles from her home

L,en "nn the Lightning I.od Alen.

Lfon hlAn the Llghtnlhg lsou MEN,
A gang Of lightning rod sharks made
an attempt to rod a farmers house
against his will Saturday, but got the
worst of the bargain. The farmer is Rn
old soldier, living 10 miles south of this
city, named John Snyder. On Thurs
day one man called and inquired who
the owner was, got drink of water and
departed. The next day another called
and proposed to make the farmer pres
ent of 100 feet of rod, charging him 75
cents foot for 10 feet and charging him
extra for the necessary points, insisting
that the farmer sign a contract for the
balance. This he refused to do, and the
fellow left. Saturday two more men
drove up to his place, threw out rods
and tools and proceeded to put up the
rods. The farmer objected. but they
claimed to have an order to do the work
and laughed him to scorn. Snyder got
his gun, and covering the man in the
wagon, who had drawn revolver, he
ordered him to clear out or he would let
daylight through him. The fellow drove
off at a lively rate, leaving his pal at the
mercy of the farmer, who served him in
like manner, and now the farmer has 40
feet of lightning rods to sell.-Warsaw

A Query About Eleotrooution.

1t is a noteworthy fact that post

the bodies of electrocuted criminals in y
very short time after they were shocked
Who among us all can positively and
certainly declare whether life has left
the body after passage through it of
an electric current2 A shock of 1000
volts will undoubtedly kill some men
and may only stun others. Is there a
competent physician who will state upon
his honor that the criminals who have
been electrocuted in New York state
were dead when they were carried from

African Decoration.

A tribe Of West African women. who
are forced to forego clothing on account
of the heat, turn the entire attention oi
their personal decorative instincts tc
their heads, torturing their woody locks
into all sorts of fantastic designs. The
buffalo horn" is favorite; the lock
hair hangs in tight ringlets, and the
front is divided into two rolls, and
wound around long curved shells which
stand nearly upright from the head.
Another popular design is a halo round
the head, formed of tightly braided lit
tie pigtails. which are held in position
by hoop Of wood, which encircles the
head. The hoop represents the niinbus
of saint. and the little tails the beams
of heavenly light.-Philadelphia Press.

Where the Blame Belongs.

One of the lovely nylnphs who was
floating about among the sylvan woods
and streams during the summer has
among her belongings gown which the
prosy man who pays the nymphs bills
considers not dream, but very sub
stantial reality, as it cost him $500 over
and above the original price. That was
the sum he paid for one of the horses
that took cold while the carriage waited
at the door of the modiste when the
gown was being fitted. He had been
clipped, and the illness resulted in his
death. The owner of the creation" :"
however, thinks the unreasonable man
should place the blame where it belongs
ON the modiste of the fashionable
horse.-New York Times.

How an Arctic Benaty Is Mildly Bullie,

Since the Danish missionaries hav,
gained the confidence of the natives O.
Greenland, marriages in the far nortl
are celebrated by the representative
of the church. In a recent issue of one
of the Danish papers one of the mis-
sionaries gives the following account
of the way courtship and marriage are
brought about:
The man calls on the missionary anC
Gays, II wish to take unto myself 6
wife.
"Who;ni" asks the missionary.
The man gives her name.
"Have you spoken with her?"
AS q rule the answer is in the mega.
tive, and the missionary asks the reason.
because" comes the reply, lit is
SO difficult. You must speak to her. -
The missionary then calls the young
woman to him and says, II think it is
time that you marry"
but" she replies, "I do not wish
to marry"
"That is pity" adds the mission
ary, las have husband for YOU"
"Who is her" asks the maiden.
The missionary names the candidate
for her love.
"But he is not worth anything. ]
will not have him"
However, suggests the missionary,
she is good fellow and attends we'll
to his house. He throws a good har-
poon, d he loves you"
The Greenland beauty listens atten-
lively, but again declares that she will
not accept the man as her husband.
VERY WELL" goes on the missionary
"I do not wish to force you. shall
easily find another wife for so good a
fellow"
The missionary then remains silent as
though he looked upon the incident as
closed. But in few minutes she whis-
pers, but if you wish it,
"No, answered the pastor, "only If
you wish it. do not wish to overper-
suade you.
Another SIGH follows, and the pastor
expresses regret that she cannot accept
the man.
Pastor" she then breaks out, "I
fear he is not worthy" "
"But did he not kill two whales last
summer while the others killed one?
Will you not take him now?"
''Yes, yes; 1 will"
"God bless you both, answers the
pastor and joins the two in marriage.

AN OPAL WITH A History.
five Men Who Wore the FatefuI Stone
Overwhelmed with Misfortune.

five Men Who Wore the FatefuI Stone
Overwhelmed with Misfortune.
Some years ago gentleman named
Beard, who was one of the wealthiesI
residents Of Houston, was travelling on
horseback from San Antonio to Austin.
In his saddlebags he had a supply of
provisions, liquor, ETC., the usual com
missary supplies incident to horseback
journeys. A few miles from Austin he
rode up to a tree under which lay a
stranger, sick almost unto death. He
asked Mr.. Beard for assistance and was
given some provisions and generous
draft of whisky. The fellow was suffer
ing with a raging fever and realized
the necessity Of getting to where he
could have proper medical attention.
He asked Mr. Beard if be could spare
him a few dollars, at the same time
drawing from his finger heavy gold
ring set with magnificent opal, which
shot forth flashes of red. blue and gold
en- light as the stone was moved Mr.
Beard took the ring, giving the man
SO, which was about half the change he
had with him, promising to call on
the man in the hospital in Austin, where
he hoped to hear from friends and
would redeem the ring. Mr.. Beard rode
on, after making the stranger as com
Portable as possible.
Some two or three days later he went
to the hospital and found his man still
very i'll, but he had failed to receive
the expected remittance. After chat
ting with him awhile he took his de-
parture When he visited the hospital
next day, he found the man was dead.
He returned to Houston, forgetting all
about the ring. except as he happened
to notice it. The second day after his
return he lost lawsuit involving $50, :
600. From this time everything he
touched proved unlucky. One day he
was in Austin gloomily meditating over
his i'll luck when his eye CHANGED to
fall upon the opal, which he swears
was emitting yellowish green light
and seemed to mock at him. Like a
flash the story of the opal and the i'll
luck that attached to a possessor came
into his mind, and drawing the ring
from his finger he started for the Colo
RADIO river, intending to throw it in the
stream. On his way he met friend,
the sheriff of the county, to whom he
communicated his intentions.
The officer said it was shame to
throw away such magnificent gem
and begged that he might have it in
stead. Tho opal changed ownership
right there, and three days afterward
the sheriff was shot and killed. The
opal then passed into the hands of a
lawyer, who was thereupon unfortunate
until he died, and the ring went into
the hands of the fifth man, who soon
went crazy. From this time Mr.. Beard
lost all trace of the opak after follow
ing its history through the hands of five
different men, all of whom met with
misfortune as soon as the gem came
into their possession Louis Globe

To Exterminate rarasol Ants.

The government of Trinidad has passed
an ordinance for the determination of
parasol ants, so far as its power extends
The pest has become unbearable. In
fact, from the nature of things wherever
this ant is found growing civilization
must wage war to the death with it, for
the creature strips trees of their leaves,
which itneatly trims to the size and shape
of a threepenny bit and carries to the
nest. An army of Acodoma cephalotes
at work is one of the strangest sights in
tropical America. The column may be
followed for mile, 8 or inches in
width, serried mass of ants, each carry
ing aloft upright as flag its green disk.
They will strip a large tree Of which
they fancy the leaves in "a hours.-Kew

Pennsylvanla In the Ice Age.

In the ice age the thickness of the ice
which covered northeastern Pennsyl-
vania has been supposed have been great
enough to rise 200 feet above the sea
level. Until short time ago, no signs
of glacial action had been discovered
at loftier elevation than this, but John
@. Bravner has explored Elk mountain,
which is believed TO be the highest
point in northern Pennsylvania, and
there he found scratches made by the
ice at an altitude of about 2, 100 feet.
1t Is evident, therefore, that the ice
sheet which overspread this region dur
ing the glacial epoch must have been
thicker than geologists have hitherto
thought. New York Ledger,

Many superstitious beliefs as to the
influence of the moon still remain,
even in this last decade of the nine

handed when one first beholds the new

ing silver in the hands or gold in the

about entering upon an important un-
dertaking. Le had best defer proceedings
