HOW THE DUKE SECURED DEOORA-
TONS.

Once, in days long past, I knew a duke
at Florence Che was from Sicily, where
most persons are dukes. He had been
banfshed by King BoEnba. He was rich,
and he ought to have been happy. But
he was not, and he confided his woes
to me. He had no decoration. You
have antiquities in your island" I said.
He replied that he had heard that there
were such things. D you know any
thing about them?" I continued. Moth
ing he answered. ''Then get a man to
write a book about them; have it prop
erly illustrated; bring it out as your own;
have some copies beautifully bound, and
send one to each of the crowned
heads in Europe-Kings, Dukes. electors,
and SO on" But wherefore, my friend?'
he asked. "A certain number of them
will send you an order in return for
your gift. Mind-quarto, and pqwell
bound" l said. Two years laterrsI re-
turned to Florence, and went to some
official ceremony. My Duke was there.
He was arrayed in ribbons like a rain
bow, and he jingled as he walked, such
was the number of the metal plates
about him. The grateful creature threw
himself into my arms. Il owe them
all to you," he said.-London Truth.

OIL BARGE BLOWN UP.

ShOcktng AccIuent.
CHESTER, PA, July 81, 1S95.-An ex-
p~lasion occurred this morning, at Roach's
ship yard, in the after tank of Barge n, OF
the Standard Oil Company fleet. John
Wolf was fatally burned, several other
.workmen were painfully injured and the
vessel was considerably damaged. A new
bulkhead had just been completed, and the
the dock pump was put in motion for the
purpose OF filling the tank to see If 1T was
watertight.
Three men were working in the tank, wal
ter Welsh, Robert Macully and Wolf. Soon
after the pump started they noticed a streak
of fame running along a seam OF the vessel,
and with a shout of alarm they rushed to the
ladder to escape. Macully and Welsh reach
ed the dock. but while Wolf was on the lad
der a terrific report occurred followed by a.
burst of flame. ,ue
A fellow workman dashed to the manho1e,
seized Wolf and pulled him on deck. sLHis
clothes We're in a blaze, the skin on his hands
and arms was hanging in shreds and his body
was terribly burned. His agony was dread
full as he was hurried to the hospital.
Macully was blown from the deck to the
dock, and Clifford Ashworth, a rlvet boy,
was blown overheard. but not seriously

damage to the boat. The theory at the yard
for the explosion is that the dock pump was
full of MARTHA and that it was forced into
the tank as soon as pumping began.

PHILADELPHIA, July 81, 1995.-The
launch of the armored cruiser Brooklyn,
which has been on the ways at Cramps
ship yard for two years, will take place in
about two weeks. The Navy Department
has not as yet made public its plans for the
christening. Just will speak the words, 81
christen thee Brooklyn, " to tho a%ccompani-
ment of breaking glass and foaming wine,
has not been definitely decided upon. 1t is
pretty well understood that Mrs. Cleveland
has no desire to o~fficiate. 1t has been limited
that Miss Ruth Cleveland will be asked to
play the proud role, but it is hardly possible
that she will accept, as the Presidents fam
ily will not leave New. England until after
the launch. 1t is believed that some mem
Der of Secretary Herbert's family will off
ciate.
The Brooklyn is designed to have a speed
CT at least twenty knots, at a displacement
of s, $50 tons. Her main engines are of the
triple expansion type, four in number, and
will drive twin propellers. The contract
price is 81, 1856, 900, the building of the ship
being authorized by an act of Congress. APP

DOUBTED HIS OWN BUREAU.

WASHINGTON. July 81, 1~S95.-Seccre-
fary Morton went out to the experiment
tai farm station yesterday. AS he left
his office. his secretary handed him an
umbrella. and mentioned the fact that
the Weather Bureau had ~prophesied
showers during the day.
The Secretary cast a glance upward
and saw the sun shining out of a cloud
less sky. There was apparently no more
probability OF rain than there is of a
fight between Japan and Russia. Tho
Secretary evidently though so. for he
declined the proffered umbrella with the
remark that he guessed the Weather
Bureau was a little off in its predictions
today"
About the time he had got well out
to the farm, a huge ank of black
CLUBS suddenly appeared in the west
and there followed, a few minutes later,
a furious downpour of rain. The Sec
rotary was so delighted with the accur-
acy of the weather prediction that he
forgot the embarrassment which the
shower caused him.

would have supposed that a convention

nave quickly dispelled hat impression.
The inscription, Second Annual Outing

so many smiling faces in the gathering.
Sheriff Toffey the standard bearer of the
association was on hand earlier than

Frank J. Higgins and the other clerks
being all absorbed in arranging the pa
rade, which was one of the features of

assembled at Fackert's Hall, where they
awaited the beating of the assembly.
The line formed on Willow Court and
promptly at half-past nine o'clock the

tune and with banners flying the Toffeys
inaugurated the day. Sheriff Toffey in
an open barouche headed the procession.

INTERESTING TO WHEELMEN.
Tho "Ameriean WheeImen" Gives
Them Some Useful Hints.

Let me advise the 1895 novice to learn
to dismount from either side. 1t is abso-
lutely dangerous to get tied up, as some
times happens when riding through the
city, from the amount of traffic in the
streets, and be unable to dismount upon
either side. To-day I saw what might
have proved a bad accident but for the
~forethought of a pedestrian. A young
lady was riding dow a business street
when she . became entangled between
several agons and an oncoming electric
car. h was evidently getting confused
frightened, and 1 wondered why she
did not dismount on the left side and
walk her wheel out of the intricacy. On
the right she had not sufficient space, as
the way was blocked by a heavy dray.
She was afraid to steer out because of
the car, and an accident would surely
have happened but for a passerby, who
sprang to her rescue. He took hold of
the wheel and guided it between the
car and the wagon until she reached a
place of safety. In thanking him she
added the word of explanation hat she
had never dismounted on the left side
and was afraid to try. This is but one
of many cases that might occur, there
fore my advice to learn to dismount
upon both sides, and practice until one
is as easy and natural as the otner.
There is a man in Syracuse working
upon an invention in the tire line that
will prove a good thing indeed if it is
ever perfected. He has an idea of a
non-puncturable tire in the manufacture
ing of which rubber is largely employed.
What material is used cannot be learn
ed, as the process is kept a secret and
will he until the time arrives TO market
the article. One of its chief virtues
something that has always been lacking
in a non-puncturable tire, is ~lightness
and resiliency. A Syracuse manufacture
er has seen the new invention n pro-
nounces it a great success.
A very peculiar sight was witnessed on
the streets of Herstal, Belgium, recently.
A w~ell-known local rider, to decide q
bet, rode a distance. of 500 metres (540
YARDS on his bicycle, holding in his
mouth a teaspoon in which he balanced
an egg. This extraordinary feat of Jug
Cling was safely performed to the no
small amusement of the throng of vii
| lage youngsters who noisily followed it's
course. Here is a new record for some
| ambitious American youth to tackle.
