The Passing of the piiotboat.

The substitution of steamers for the beautiful little vessels which New York pilots have always used will doubtless increase the efficiency of the service, and therefore cannot be criticised. None the less is the change one that is to be sor- rowfully contemplated as another of the many which have robbed the sea of so much poetry, and which have already made the old fashioned sailor and his virtues almost things of the past. The pilotboats were perfect instruments for the display of seafsring skill and cour- age; the new steamers will certainly be as ugly as they are useful, and the men on board them will follow trade, not an art.-New York Times.

DR. TALMAGE'S NEW HOME.

He Will Lease 1t For the Present and
 Live at Hotel.
 Although Dr. Talmage has bought 8 house in Washington and purposes to have all his household goods moved presently to that city, it is not likely that he will quit his present quarters at the Arlington within the year. Dr. Tal- mage has taken Mrs. Ann Coles old home at 140016 Massachusetts avenue. 1t is one of ths oldest houses in that part of the city and adjoins the newer annex now occupied by Assistant Score tary Hamlin of the treasury.
 Dr. Talmage will take the larger house, which will be furnished through out with his own effects, except his li- brary, which has already been installed at the Arlington, and in this condition it will be leased for year. There is a large amount of beautiful and valuable material that Dr. Talmage has collected in his iourneyings. especially in the far east, many handsome rugs and carvings and quite collection of pictures. These will all be placed in his new Washing ton home.
 Mrs. Coles furniture will be sold at auction next Tuesday, and she will take up her residence temporarily at another of her houses. after which she may go to Brooklyn to spend the balance of the winter with her brother, Hon. Horatio King. who will occupy the Talmage property. for which Mrs. Coles Wash ington property was exchanged. Wash ington Post.

An Apple Tree In Blossom.

An apple tree ill blossom at the end of October was one of the curious sights presented to an observer yesterday morn ming during a stroll about the quiet streets of Bath Beach, Long Island. An immense cluster nodded from the top most twig and gayly bade defiance to the approaching storm. The tree stands in the yard of the residence of R. T. Mitchell on Bay Eleventh street, close to the shore. MT. Mitchell, hotel keep CT on Bath avenue, planted the tree in the fall of 1894. It bore an excellent crop this year, but the ravages of worms robbed it of it's beauty until, to Mitch ell's surprise last month, the sturdy youngster came out again in full blos- som.-New York Sun.

Remarkable Discovery In Hill Near Ste.
 Gensyieve.
 About 15 miles west of Red Bud, Ills, and the same distance north of Ste. Genevieve, Mo, on the banks of the Mississippi river, is natural curi= osity, being no less than refrigerator formed by some unexplained law of na- ture.
 4 short time ago Farmer Wallace, on whose land this was seen, dug a cell lar or grotto in the shaley hillside, where the rocks are thin and brittle, in order to get storage place for milk and other edibles. After digging back a few feet, he was surprised to find lay CTS of ice between the layers of rocks, and as it was cool inside, and it prom ised to be more than he expected ill the way of refrigerator, he finished it up by putting in door.
 He finds by trial that everything placed inside, such as meats, milk, fruits or other perishable articles, keeps perfectly for any length of time. Dur ing the hottest weather last summer milk stored in this cellar would make the teeth ache to drink it. MT. G. V. Kettler of Red Bud says it is wonder, and not at all like common cellar. but a veritable icebox, made so by the nat ural ice formed inside, how it is not known. St. Louis Republic.

And Burglars Have Since Tried to Get It
 From the Hotel Safe.
 A fourth attempt was recently made to rob the safe of the American House at Bloomfield. N. J., which. it was sup posed, contained $4 500 in gold, deposit ed there five years ago by Raymond Welsh. Who Raymond Welsh was. where he came from or where he went to no- body knows.
 He went to the American House five years ago. and the register gives New York as his residence. He was tall, square man, and wore neat looking Prince Albert coat and silk hat. From his accent he was supposed to be an Irishman. A simple valise constituted his entire baggage. He remained quiet ly at the hotel for three days, scarcely leaving the house. One night he called William Courier, the proprietor, to his room.
 MT. Courier" he said, "I want you to take care of some money for me. ;"
 With that he reached under the mat tress of his bed and drew out two can vas bags. 'There's $4, 300 in gold in those two bags" said Welsh. Count 1t and see "
 Courier opened the bags and poured quantity of gold pieces upon the bed. There were three old California $50 slugs, made in San Francisco i'll 1851, a few English sovereigns, but most of the money was in S2o gold pieces.
 What are you doing with all this gold?" asked Courier.
 Well, I may go where I'll need it, :" replied Welsh, with smile. Besides, am just going to be married, and why shouldn't man spend gold on his hon eymoon?"
 Courier gave Welsh receipt for $4, 300 and put the gold in the safe in the barreom. The next day Welsh did not appear at the hotel He has never been seen since, and several unsuccess- ful attempts have been made to rob the safe. Cincinnati Enquirer.

He Would Ba Cnraful.

A pompous little German is said by
the New York Herald to be construct
ing a building for the storage Of salt
meats: It is one of his peculiarities. as
it is of pompous people generally, that
he loves to give orders on all occasions.
His frequent and needless interfer-
ence with the work has secured the ill
will of the workmen. The other day
the German remarked to one Of the ma
sons, man of ready wit:
: 81 say, Mike, want you to be very
careful not. to leafe any holes in dot
foundation, because / am going to haf
dot cellar filled NIT meat, and 1 don't
want de rats to get in; do you see2"
'Oh, that's all right, sir" answered
Mike, good-naturedly; ''if do happen
to lave hole or two between the
stones, I'll lave 'em big enough for the
cats to get in after the rats, so yez'n
have no ,rayson to worry"

A Rus Sian Earthquake Story.

. A Russian journal, with name that
no one with only one tongue in his
head would attempt to pronounce,
gives story from Khorosan that we
have some difficulty in accepting. A
certain carter relates that on leaving
the town. of Kutschan on January II he
heard loud subterranean noises. He
looked back and saw the air filled with
clouds of smoke and dust and says
that when they cleared away there
was no town left. The consular agent
in Kutschan has written to friend in
Ashahabad that on the same date he
felt a strong shock of earthquake, ran
out into the street and beheld the
whole place disappear in an immense
chasm in the earth. Why he did not
disappear, too, we do not understand,
and we wonder whether the "vodlsi" in
that part of the world is as. strong as
the earthquakes.
