Outside of the big Paris stores there
were lately grouped a lady. nurse
maid, with a baby in her arms, and
an inspector of police. in the execute
ton of his duty. The lady had just
beea given into custody on a charge Of
unlawful samplirfg off the counter.
She was protesting her innocence in
the most eloquent and moving tones.
The nursemaid was too far gone for
words. but she sobbed in a. highly eff
fective manner upon the baby's Shout
der. The great heart of the people
that stood around was stirred. It
found voice. anon, in cries of protest
against that inspector. Abashed, in
deed, he might have been, had he not
shrewdly and suddenly unwater-
PROCEED his prisoner. For, underneath,
fans and fancy articles, festooned with
lace and ribbons and fallals of all
sorts, hung around with natty boots
give the abasers pause. 4 certain re-
vulsion of feeling in favor of consti-
tuted authority began to set in. But
when constituted authority proceeded
to uncloak the nursemaid also and
she, in her agitation. let the baby fall,
a roar of execration arose from the by
ISLANDERS. For the baby fell upon its
head, and stove it in. The inspector
had to go down upon his knees and
pick up the fragments of that frac-
tured skull and show them around.
Then there arose another sort of roar

tnnumerable stories of his experiences,
and most of them related to a time
when he was stationed at a post down
OF the Mexican frontier He was pop

FOR he ATTENDED the sick for miles
around. One time his Mexican friends
determined to do him honor. Accord
ingly they arranged a great ball Dr.
and Mrs. Dewitt were invited. and they
went, the two of them. The ball began
early. as Mexican balls do, and the
surgeon and his wife danced in the
first set They danced in nearly every
set, in fact. for politeness forbade re-
fucal. and after a few hours of it they
began to be very tired, They were the
guests Of honor. indeed. Time wore on
and still the dance went on. 1t went
on all night. Finally. DR.. Dewitt called
one of the men aside and asked him

A SPECTRAL LIGHT.
Curious Phenomenon Sir Humphrey
Couldn't Explain,

Sir Humphrey was alone in his room
one evening, attired in a dressing gown
ana night cap constructed on the an
Gent conical pattern, with a tassel for
the apex, of which l suppose hardly a
specimen could be found in these degen-
crate days. Suddenly he saw a myster-
lous light on the ceiling of his room for
winch he could not account in any way.
ms sclentlhc zeal was aroused at once
10 discover the cause; it must be a re-
nected light. perhaps from some celes-
tlal phenomenon in the sky He rushed
10 the window and looked out. but ali
was as usual in the darkened heavens.
He eStingvuished the lamp. thinking
that It's flame might have become sim
quarry polartZed on the ceiling, but
tnere was no change in the circular
nght over his head except that it seemed
growing brighter. He tried every plan
ne could think of TO explain it, but in
vain. The great man was completely
puzzled--he stood gazing upward OPEN
mouthed. while his acute brain was in
tent on the mystery. Presently, how
ever, he became aware that the recep-
tacle in which the wise brain was in
closed had a sensation of unpleasant
warmth. While an odor, anuarently due
TO the frfZzing of hair, was making it,
self strongly f1lt. Involuntarily he
snatched off his niSh.cap and then dis
covered that he had SET fire to the tas-
sci thel~of in bending over the lamp
While engaged in an experiment, and
the strange circle of light was at once
EXPLAINED. to his no small indignation.-

and a good worker. In January, 1868,

extending from Petersburg almost to

enemy might get around and make an
attack on the left. AS wished to de-
fend the line l put all my troops to
work. Whenever I made tour Of in
spection 1 always found General Ma
hone at his post and hard at work. He
was very Industrious and had much
energy. He was also a fine engineer
and very good soldier, considering
his opportunities. He was far more at
tentive to duty than many of the other
officers. The fact that Malone was I'M
popular in Virginia was due entirely
to his politics. They attacked him in
the Senate because he helped to organ
ize that body under the Republicans
But he did more for the state than any
other man has done for many day.
think he was patriotic and sincere in
all his doings and if he was disliked at
the last it was because he belonged to
the Republican party, which was so
unpopular in the Old Dominion"

DON'T SHOOT SOLID SHOT.
Artillery Has Abandoned the Use of
Tint Proiectiie.


The use of solid shot in warfare has
been practically given up The projec-
tile of today is a conical shell of steel
and sometimes loaded with powder so
as to explode, or by time fuse 1t is
wonderfully different from the she'll of
twenty-five years ago. in those days
one could watch the projectile as it
sailed through the air in a graceful,
curve, at length bursting. There was
even time to get out of the way, under
favorable circumstances. But the new
style of shell mo'~es at the rate of a
little more than half a mile a, second.
In striking metal target, its energy
being transformed inStantaneously into
heat, 1t becomes red hot. and a flame
is actually seen to burst forth from the
point struck. Such projectile moves,
one might say, in a straight line, and
Its impact at distance of a mile
seems almost simultaneous with the
discharge of a gun.
Such a she'll, passing near "a man,
will tear his clothes Off. merely from
the windage If it come very near,
though without hitting him, it will kill
him. He drops dead without sign OF
wound. Whereas an old style shell
would burst into a few pieces, the mod
ern proJectile flies into a myriad Of
small fragments, each of them moving
with tremendous velocity. 1t may cas-
lily be imagined that half a dozen six
pound Hotchldiss shells finding their
way into a vessel would scatter death
and destruction in every direction. Pro-
tective armor, owing to its great
weight, can be placed only over the
ships vitals-that is to say. along the
middle part of the hull, near the water
line, so as to cover the machinery. In
future battles gunners will direct their
fire against the unarmored ends of an
opposing vessel Star.

NOT REAL DEAD.

In the good old days Of NJ. Blanc,
writes George R. Sims, it was the Gus
tom at Monte Carlo directly suicide
was found to stuff his pockets full of
bank notes. This was done to prove
that his losses at play were not the
cause of his hurried departure from
this world. The last person who re-
ceived this generous treatment was an
American. He was found lying in one
of the quiet alleys of the beautiful
grounds with an empty bottle labeled
poison by his side. The secret
agents of the bold Blanc instantly
stuffed his pockets full of gold and
notes, preparatory to giving informa-
ton to the police. No sooner had they
filed him as full of lucre as he could
hold than the suicide leaped to his
feet, raised his hat, exclaimed, Thank
you very muchv' and went off to en-
joy himself with his newly acquired
wealth.

TO conclude that because Prince Hohen-

and Prince Lobanoff has just been
greeted with equal friendliness by the
German emperor at Hubertussstock. a
serious political Impeachment has
taken place between Germany and
Russia But it is natural that these in

tive to the maintenance of information

in Europe is largely bound up. in the

PRINCE BIsMARCK.s wEIGHr,

The correspondent of a German
journal had lately an opportunity of
inspecting Bismarck's bedroom at
Friedrichsruhe. He gives a minute
description of his Investigations.
Among the objects that interested him
most was the weighing machine used
every morning by the prince as soon
as he gets out of bed and draws on a
pair OF slippers. On a table. beside the
machine lies a note book, in which he
inscribes with his own hand his weight
for every day in the year. In 1879, we
are told, the chancellor-then in the
heyday Of power-turned the scale at
the respectable figure of 242 pounds.
Since then he has been physically on
the down grade, for today he scales
only POP pounds, and appears only too
anxious to reduce the figures still
further.-Westminste Gazette.

HAD TO WAIT HIS TURN.

In the days of General Sam Houston
duelling was much more common than
now. says the Knoxville Journal
After removing to Texas General
Houston happened to give offense to a
political opponent, who felt his honor
disfigured to such an extent that he
sent a CHALLENGES TO houston. The
bearer of the challenge was received
with courtly civility. He handed the
written challenge to General Houston,
who read it, and taking up his pen
wrote something across the back of the
folded paper and placed it in a pigeon
hole in his desk. He then went on to
entertain the bearer of the challenge
with the pleasant conversation for
which he was noted. After a time the
man began to grow impatient, and re-
mInding the general of the challenge,
asked him if he was going 10 reply.

of your friend and 1 must take them in

l WIN attend to your friend; but he will
have to wait until his turn comes.'
The bearer of the challenge bowed
himself out; but of course, his friends
turn never came and it is not probable
that he was anxious for it to come.
