BURGLAR IN A BOX.
A Now Thing in uouseBreaking and ono
 That Kcunirea NnrNn.

A Now Thing in UouseDreaking and Ono
 That Requires Nerve.
 There is an amusing story told about a burglar in a box. According to presumably veraCious narrator in the London Telegraph, two detectives who were on duty one evening in the Rue Saint-Martin heard man address a large box whichhc was wheeling be. fore him on a cart as if it were a hu- man being. The detectives may, or may not, have thought of the story of the wooden horse, but, at all events, they listened attentjvcly, and distinctly heard the words: "D0a't stir, old man. I'll take you round by the shortest cut" The porter was followed at once by the plain-ClothCS men. The cart containing the box was wheeled into large buslnCss premises in the Rue de Body and delivered over to clerk. the porter observing that he would call for 1t iu the morning and take it away to another destination.
 The clerk objected to receiving the article as he had no notice of its com ing, but he was prevailed upon to let it remain in the place The detectives entered soon after, and, having men, toned their suspicious to the clerk, it was arranged that they should hide on the premises and await events.
 On the stroke of midnight the lid of the box was observed rising gently, and out came a man, who walked to- wards a money safe, opened it with the aid of tools which he had in his posses. sion and after having annexed a sup ply of gold and hank-noIcs, returned to his original hiding place. The de- tcctivcs waited untu the morning, which brought the porter, who was arrested, and the box with the safe breaker in it was conveyed to the office of the Surcte. There the thief overcome with surprise, was despoiled of his booty. amounting to about eighty pounds, and was quickly dispatched to the depot.

THE DIVERS LIGHT.
1t Interests and Astonishes the Deep-sea
 Monsters Who See It.

Monsters Who See It.
 The dcnizens of the deep dwell either in twilight or darkness, according to the distance beneath the surface at which they arc accustomed to live, and to them a light is an object of intense curiosity. Before the days of the elec- tric light spearing fish by the light of a torch was favorite amusement on many rivers, and is even now practiced, rather for fun than for profit, on the Columbia and elsewhere Since the magical bulb with its fcathery cartoons enabled man to light up the bottom of the sea as brightly as the land much amusement has been obtained by scien- tific men and divers in watching the antics of various fish when the light was lowered close to the bottom of the water. Owing to the density of the medium the light is in more than Egyp- tian darkness. As the diver moves to and fro about his business, with his electric light in his hand, there will suddenly flash out of the darkness half a dozen bright-colored fishes, pause an instant in apparent entastonishmenta at the spectacle of the man in his helmet and diving dress, then hurry away in all di- rections as though panic stricken.
 Then a large, open-eyed, open mouthed monster will poke his head in the charmed circle of light, while the remainder of his body is shrouded in gloom, and look solemnly on as though striving to fatfiom the mystery. Some times, if the man remains perfectly quiet, the fish will impcrccptibly draw nearer, until almost within reach; some times, after careful inspection from a safe distance, he will slowly back away and disappear The light thrust in his face always seems to cause the utmost astonishment and dismay. He cannot yell with fright, because yelling is en-' tircly out of his line, but he will come very near it by opening his mouth and emitting a volume of water from it as be flies in terror from so unusual and hor- rifying spectacle When the light is let down to the bottom at the end of a wire the fish play about it with the ut most curiosity. few months ago the light by which a government party was inspecting the bottom of the sea of Cape Hatteras was swallowed by a mackcrel, who was drawn to the sur face with his interior brilliantly illum- mated blythe stjl burning lamp

 The ParsecS arcultra religious. Every part of their dress has some religious significance, The gauge shirt, bound with the sacred cord Hi Eusti, must be woven with sevonty-twO threads to represent the chapters of the "Izashni, g and thc twelve knots cf the heavy tas- scl signify the twclYe months of the year and represent the perpetual obli- gItion of sacred duties. The cmbroid- cry of the slopinC black hats carries out further doctrind dgnifcution, and in the white head bands of the women warp and wool form an elaborate cryp- tograph of Ioroastriau theology, Even the mode of wearing the silllen saris of pink, primrose, azure and green is prescribed by ritual law, though the linen headband gets pushed further back, and the floating folds of the bril- liant veil occasionally combine CO., quctry with orthodoxy.
 A solitary instance recurs to memory, says writer iu Lhe Boston Globe, of q fuzzy fringe framed by headband and sari and contrasting strangely with the Asiatic face and beautiful his torjc dress of the wcarcr; but the Par sec beauty rarely ventures on such decided protest against the tyranny of custom and creed.

Funeral rtnnnra for I Dog.

The funeral was followed by the Americans and their friends, all the mourncrs being in ear riaTcs A monument, which cost sixty pounds sterling, was erected to the memory of the lost favorite. The ex- pcnses of the caskets, the funeral. the tomb and the memorial amounted to one hundred pounds sterling. The un- dcrtalIcr who carried out the order was rather puzzled at first and mentioned the matter to I police commisSary, who advised him to get death cert. fcatc of the dog signed by two witnesses. This counsel was followed by the Pompes Funcbres official, who was thus able to fuliil his contract without any fear of interference on the part of the repre- sCntatives of the law.

HeRoIsM OF A LumBgRmAN.
Carrying a Wounded Comrado Forty Mnes
 Through Cold and snow.

Through Cold and snow.
 A young man, Henry Brault n resi- dent of PetCrboro, Ont, recently per. formed an act of hcroism, actuatcd by friendship, which is worthy of record among the heroic deeds of heroic men of any age. The Manchester Union says that Brault and another young man. John Jamieson, were at work in the wild MadawaslSa region for the St. Anthony Lumber company. JamieSon met with a severe accident which rem dercd him delirious, md Brault started with him for civilization, where gurgi- cal treatment could be ithd. They had travelled on foot but few hundred yards when Jarnicson's strength gave out and he became helpless. BrauIt determined to save his companion if in his power shouldered the invalid and started on his long cold tramp of somc forty miles to the nearest railroad. Without a moments sleep, and bearing, besides his human burden, a pack of provisions, Brault continued his ioura ucy for four days and nights, through cold and snow, until finally, almost as helpless from exhaustion and fatigue as his friend was from illness, he had the supreme satisfaction of reaching the end of his journey and placing Jamie son where he was able to be properly treated Such feat of endurance seems almost incredible, and only a seasoned woodman, inurcd to hardship, could have accomplished 1t; and among those capable of it it is rare to find SO striking an example of disintcrcsted friendship, even when q human life is at stake. Whatever his station in life may be, young Brault deserves to rank among natures noblcmen.
