The Deepest Spot in the Ocean.

A deeper spot In the ocean than any yet known has been recently found by Her Majesty's surveying ship Penguin. Unfortunately the observation was not complete, as 8 fault in the wire caused it to break when forty-nine hundred fathoms had run out without bottom having been reached. Commander Balfour reports that this occurred in latitude twenty-three degrees forty minutes south, longitude one hundred and seventy-five degrees ten minutes west about sixty miles north of a sounding of 4,428 fathoms obtained by Captain Aldrich in 1888. A previous attempt to reach bottom had been foiled by a similar accident to the wire when 4,300 fathoms had passed out, and the rising wind and sea prevented any

Dumas Aphorisms.
tFrom the Westminster Gazette.)

(trom the Westminster Gazette.)
 Alexandre Dumas has taken to the composition of aphorisms. Among those which he has recently published, the following may serve as specimens: q find comfort at times in the observa- tion that, although limits are set to genius, there is no limit to stupidity" Never argue; you will never convince anybody; opinions are like nails, the harder you hammer at them, the deep CT you drive them in" How does it happen that nearly all little children are so prudent, and nearly all great men are so stupid? can only attrib- ute it to education.' La Rochefou cald says that we have all of us strength enough to bear the misfortune of others. He ought to have added that few of us have strength enough to bear the good fortune of others.'

Mourning Attire Should be subdued.

Mourning Attire Should be Subdued.
 The accompanying illustration pre- sents an example of mourning attire that is counted as absolutely correct with those who are competent to judge of what good taste demands in such matters. It is especially commendable for responding. to the demands made for ordinary costumes without display ing their characteristics so markedly as to make the costume appear over- done. An over-dressed woman is an unpleasant sight enough, but a woman rately dressed and make an even worse impression without being attired with but a little fancifulness. Mourning should not be showy-rnore than that, it should be positively safe from the least suggestion om showiness. A lus- treless black woolen suiting is the ma- terial of this dress, which has a very wide but severely plain godet skirt and a fitted bodice having a square Crape yoke finished with dull jet gaIoon. The gown is completed by 6 short cape, en- tirely of crape, having round yoke to which the pleated cape is sewed. The neck is encircled by a wide ruff of veil ing, and the tiny hat has a veil of the same material-nun's veiling-with tie strings of crape.

lace softens the round of the chin and makes @ becoming curve under the cheeks. So drawn, youthful face is rendered baby-lil1e in curve, and the face that is aged chiefly in the drawing of the cheek into the throat and relax ing of the lines about the sides of the chin regains all its youth. Yet the av- craze woman seems to think such a veil is worn merely because it is the fashion, and mistakes made with them are many. FLORETTE.

The German war office has discover ed that great numbers of German Americans have, during recent years, returned to the fatherland and se- cured standardization. An investiga- tion has led to the conclusion that the majority of these were youths under seventeen years of age, to whom passes for emigration could not be refused, who came to this country, took out their naturalization papers, and then, after a series of years, went back to Germany and were permitted to renew their citizenship there without being required to perform military duty. The war office now proposes that military service shall be enforced in all cases where 1t is apparent that emigration was effected with a view of evading military service. All applicants will be readily met and restored to German citizenship, but no matter what their age may be. they will be called upon to fulfill military duty in future.

A real wild West carnival in the heart of what is left of the wild West itself, is planned to be held in Arizona next February. It Is to be in or near Phoenix. Representatives of every In- dian tribe in Arizona, and of most tribes in the Southwest, are to be present, and, because of the proximity of the ex- hibition to their native haunts, they will be able to show almost the real thing in Indian life and ways. Then, the whole country roundabout it cov- cred with cattle ranges, and there are many hundreds of cowboys in every way representative of their class, who will be able to be present not alone as exhibits, but as spectators.

Negro victims of Superstition.

LITTLE Rock, Dec 5.-Further details
of the reported wholesale poisoning of ne,
groes near Texarkana have been received
here. Up to the present time twelve deaths
have occurred, and as many more are in a
precarious condition. The negroes of the
community are superstitious and ignorant,
and do not believe that the deaths are the
results of poison OF disease, but that it is
pestilence visited upon them by God So
strong is this belief fastened upon them
that they refuse medical treatment The
doctors say the deaths are the results of la
grippe in violent form, and that there is no
poisoning. The disease is spreading, and
unless the negroes can be induced to take
the medicine many more are likely to die
before the epidemic is stopped.

SUSPENSION SUSTAINED.
Rebellious Pupils in the High School
Called to Account.


Last evening the case of all the male
members in class A of the High school was
placed before the High school committee of
the School Board, consisting of Directors
Morgan Trezise, Conry and Lee, Director
Manley being absent. The cause of the
arraignment was complaint by James r.
Lewis, second assistant in the High school,
claiming the scholars refused to recite after
the school was dismissed last Tuesday even
ing. The recital was required by reason of
imperfect recitals during school hours. When
the pupils refused to obey they were at once
suspended by Principal J. W. Cooper
After hearing all the statements the com
mittee sustained the suspension. The board
is bound to maintain discipline among pupils,
no matter who may be affected, and the pupils
charged were informed that to be reinstated
they must recite at the same hour after school,
make an apology before Superintendent
Whitaker Principal Cooper and Assistants
Cline and Lewis, and a public apology before
the entire High school. In case the pupils
refused to comply with these conditions they
were to be expelled. The conditions were
complied with by the pupils this morning and
the reinstatements were made
