The rebel forces, commanded by General
Maxine Gomez, have captured several Of
the towns near this city and the citizens of

81 Louis Republic.
There stonishneut in astronon-
ical circles in the city of Berlin not long
ago. The moon had gotten out or order and
refused, apparently, to follow the course
which had been marked out for her for all
eternity. The situation was grave. Calcutta
tion upon calculation was made by the
savants, but no solution or the phenomenon
seemed to be nathenatically obtainable.
1t was discovered that both the fixed stars
and the planets were affected in exactly
the same way.
The whole universe was out or order!
Fortunately, the poor, ignorant public had
not yet gotten wind OF the affair, when il
occurred to some one OF theastrouome ers that
the fault might be in the observatory itself,
and not in the general machinery or the
universe. The observatory OF Brussels is
OF comparatively recent construction. 1t
is supposed to have been builtiu accordance
with the latest attainments OF science and
art, but, unfortunately, it was placed,
contrary to the biblical admonition, upon
a hill of sand, and the foundations which
the plans required to be some thirty feet
deep, were only twelve or fifteen.
The sparing OF labor and material caused
the building to lose its level and TO slip
gradually away from its proper position.
The movement threatens to continue. But
as to the conduct of Dame Luna, the
scientists are completely reassured. having
revised their calculations with due allow
ance for the enforced bias Of vision.

claimed by the English, French and Danes,
is, according TO church paper, Pastor

THE story runs that the Prussfan soldiers in

forgotten the tune, when one Gay some Of
ficers, among them Schamhorst, met a band
OF pilgrims singing the wel-known refrain.
On inquiry, the priest in charge, Father

known in Silesia from time inmemoriai, a

riously fought to Be Humorous
have made that happy line by
word, if the anonymity has left the
author uncredited, has u short story in
Godey's Ma gazine for July. 1t tells
with well-devised construction, the part
taken by Hugh Pierpont, who gives his
name TO the story, in Il mysterious murder.
The arrayment of incidents in the ntri-
cate evolvment are managed with nice
skill. AT first he creates IL suspicion about
his hero, then Pierpont confirms it in a
posthumous document, but the self
sacrifice of the man is revealed by Thor
puglIly original device. Some old family
riff-raff is sold at auction. Among it is
locked box. The spirit of chance ami
mates the bidders, for no one knows what
the secretive caskct may contain. The
buyer finds neither gold, bonds, jewels, nor
any other treasure than two-scorc and ten
old letters. One of these fortuitous apis-
ties. however, dispcls the seIf-attracted
clouds about Pierponts memory, and es-
tahlishes his right 10 heroic title. Mr.
