HIS FoRwARDNEss REBukED.
Carving Goose Not as Easy Task
as the Student Imagined.
BlackwOOd's Magazine.

The old gem 'nan who was principal of
Jesus College. Oxford. had the feeling that
young meL. were, for the most part, pushing
and req-ired 10 be kept IN their proper place,
and possibly he was right. Yet Sunday after
Sunda y lie had undcrgra'i,,a te dinner parties
and gave his guests freely of his best, both
in the WHY of provender and snubbing. At
one of these parties the principal, who was
bit of a sourmand. and, although, very
short-sighted. 4 most excellent and scientific
carer, was preparing to attack a mighty
goose which had been put before him.
"Will you allow me to do that for you,
Mr.. PriDcipal?" exclaimed young Welsh
man, with more politeness than discretion.
Put that bird In front of Mr.. NJ" said
the principal, addressing the butler. but
cycling N. all the time with considerable
disfavor, which eventually eliminated In
q most expressive sniff. n. was rather
startled at being thus suddenly taken at
his word, but he set to work manfully
enough on the goose with the sort of
happy-go-lucky feeling, that where there
is a will there is a way. But of few things
does that insdious proverb hold less than of
carving goose. And OF this fact N. was
soon painfully conscious when it came to
dissecting wing. Fortunately. the prin-
cipal. after another prolonged sniff, came to
his rescue.
''Take that bird away from Mr.. n. and
bring it back to mer' and then, addressing
NJ, Bc added: II have often had occa sionto
notice. Mr.. NJ. that young men are very
fond Of undertaking tasks which they have
no idea OF performing, as well in the mat
ter Of carving their personal acqunintances
as in anything eise.''

AGED BoERs' GRIT.
Men Of Seventy Years to Fight the
English as in Their Younger Days.

On December 81, when the news came
to Pretoria Of Jamcson's advance, the Hot-
landers and Germans Immediately as
sembled to form corps of volunteers.
Guns and ammunition which they needed
were given them from the government
magazines. One hundred and fifty Ger
mans were authorized officially to re-
QUESTION horses. They formed squad
ron, with Neumann for their chief. and
Messrs. KrantZ and Wygel for licutenl nts,
who. assisted by some Hollanders. under
took the duty of keeping order in Pretoria
and the neighborhood.
On the next day, early in the morning,
a column Of Beers appeared, numbering n
few hundreds, commanded by Friciard
They had Travelled for ten hours upon their
little horses, without quitting the saddles.
What solid fellows these Beers are! Among
them were men of seventy years, who were
determined to show their sons that there
was still plenty of fight in them. One OF
them forgot his coat. II only had time
enough he said, "to grab my vest and my
trousers and recite patcr with my wife and
my Children" Hans Botha. who in 1881
was wounded by nine English bullets. was
also of the party, and he accounted for
him, with a good-humored smile: II have
room enough between the scars for another
ball or two"
After a short rest, the column galloped
toward Krugersdorp, where there were
about 800 Beers. Three hundred of them
watched the rear of Jameson's raiders,
while the rest drew him toward the -defile
of Krugersdorp. There it would have
been easy to annihilate the entire column
with artillery, but the artillery of Joubert
had not yet arrived. precisely o'clock
the first shot came from Jameson's troops
in his attack upon the Beers, who had posted
themselves behind the rocks. a welIsus-
tanned fire burst forth and the first Boer
wounded was Botha, the man with the nine
bullets. He was fortunate, however, and
was hurt but slightly. THAT makes ten,"
he said. 1.-The number is even now"

Miss Emily turner reyton Dead.

The news of the death Of Miss Emily
Turner Peyton, which occurred at her
home in Gallatin, Tenn, Saturday night
last, win be received with profound
sorrow by her friends in Washington.
Miss Pcyton, who was 63 years old at
the time of her death, was the daugh-
ter of the late Hon. Bailey Peyton. She
was not only lovable and loved for the
many traits that made up nature
singulariy sweet and gentle, but was in
many respects a remarkable woman. She
was great traveller, and had visited
nearly all Of the easily reached portions
Of the globe and many of its out-of-the.
way corners.
During her fathers service as minister
to Chile she acted as his private secretary,
and later In life held important positions
In the Tennessee government. being for
time engrossing clerk OF the Senate. She
spent several years IN this city.

The reason why so small u traction OF the
rainbow is visible to the human eye is that
this organ is in n sense defective. 1t is
not n bic to perceive rays of light when the
light waves are very short or very long
Abovethev violet these waves become so short
and rapid that the nerve screen which lines
the eye is not capable of registering the i'm
pressions.
In like manner, the waves below the red
produce no impression upon the retina.
Taking into account the great regions OF
colors unknown to ourselves, 1t is rot un-
reasonable to lima gtne that this is world
infinitely more beautiful than it appears
to US. 1t may be that certain animals are
able to distinguish colors invisible to human
eyes, just as some insects can hear sounds
inaudible o human ears.

MR.. LANGLEY DIssENTs.

The notion that suns rays may be used
for making shadowgra phs is accepted also
by Prof. II. A. Hazn and other scientists
in Washington. Anopinionin in dissent is ex-
pressed by Mr.. Langley. Said he:
"A prime character of the SUMS rays is
that they are susceptible to refraction-that
is to say, they may be bent. The rays
of Prof. Roentgen. exhibit no such capa-
bility. They may be bent by means Of a
magnet, but not otherwise. This is to my
mind a good reason for believing that X rays
cannot be found among the rays of the sun.
Supposing this to be true, suns rays cannot
be employed for. making shadowgrapbs."
Ithasbee stated that the ra VS. Of the infra-
red are heat rays. But the lines and hands
are cold spaces crossing the warm track Mt
intervals. Nevertheless, rays do come from
these cold spaces, and it is impossible to
say what uses may be discovered for them
some day. The study of the invisible parts
of the rainbow-tbe regions of unknown
colors above the violet and below the red
is as yet only begun.
Prof. Langley enthrtains great hopes of
what it may accomplish in the future; but.
