father, and was, in consequence
thereof, and in accordance with the
law OF Scotland, debarred from the
succession to the estates and digni-
ties These passed to distant
cousin, the ninth Earl, gentleman
in every sense OF the word, for, with
the consent OF the crown, he recon

Rabbits That Climb.

A correspondent writes to the London Field that while he was hunting rabbits with ferrets in January lie found rabbits on three occasions in willow trees which oYerhung the water cf a mill stream. The miller said that it was not an un- usual circumstance. Some months ago The Field told of other rabbits which had been shot, like Iacccons CT opcs- sums, cut Of trees in England III re- cent years cases of rabbits in trees haya been reported with increasing frequency. Prem Australia has come the most re- markablc story Of rabbits as climbers The only way ill which rabbits could be kept out of certain tracts of iand in Australia was by the building Of wire fences about them, the feLces having meshes so small that the beasts coaId rot crawl through and being so high that they could not jumpoyer. The rab- bits have clawed at the wires until their nails gradually have become hccked. Some of the rabbits learned to scale the fences, and then great additional ex- pense was necessary, for the tep Of the fence had to be bent over like J up- side down, with the ccll cut, so that the rodents could net get over the top. Australian rabbits are said to Do lc;un- ing to climb trees for the leaves.

FOUR CHURCHES SOLD.
fshpeming (AIioh.) Churches Neglected to
 Pay Taxes.


 Ishpeming, Mich, has furnished the spectacle, probably unprecedented in this country, of churches heing sold for delinquent taxes. Four have thus been disposed of, and numerous others un. doubtedly will be.
 The four sold are the Methodist. Presbyterian, English Baptist and Epis. eopal. These that are ia danger of similar fate include representatives of nearly every denomination there. The churches are not taxed for city, state, county or school taxes, but a special levy for the building of new sewers was made several years ago, and all the property benefited was assessed regard less of the uses to which 1t was put.
 1t was generally understood Ut the time that church taxes would be re- mitted, but such action was never taken. The four We're knocked down for song to t3x title dealer. The time for redemption has expired in the cases of the four churches referred to- and it rests with the purchasers to say whether the edifices shall be redeemed at nomi- nal figures.

FRENCH JOURNALS.
Shares Of Several Bought end Sold Daily
 on the stook Exohnnge.

the Stock Exchange.
 Most of the French journals have a salle de depeehes, where bulletins are displayed and q museum of relics of tho paper is kept. French journalism is much more personal in regard to it's lit erary composition than that of England or America. A urge proportion of tho articles are signed with the names of the writers, even when the work is more or less Of routine nature, such as the sporting CT law departments of the paper. On the otLer hand, the own ership of newspapers is less frequently lodged in single hands than is the case in America. Very many of the French papers are owned by companies or asso- citations, while the stock of several Of tie best known, such as The Figaro and Petit Journal, is bought and sold daily on the Stock Exchange, the quotations appearing as regularly as those of rail way shares or Government bonds.
 The circulation of all but very few of the Paris papers varies enormously, according to the contents. If paper contains striking article, we'll adver- tiscd previously, or If its feuilleton, con- tinued story or memoirs, which most of the French journals consider an csscn- tial part of their daily issue, is by somo well known author, the circulation will run up 90, 900 or 100, 900 in a week and drop again as soon as the special feature is discontinued. When Le Jour began publishing NJ Henri Rochefort's memoirs it's circulation went up five fold, although the price of the paper had been doubled in order to make hay while the sun shone.
 The French press is much more con centrated i'll the capital than that of other European countries. Ill Germany, for instance, 1t is not the press of Berlin that has the largest circulation or the greatest influence. In this, as in many other matters however, the French press only bears out the saying that Paris is France '-Chautauquan

NEW PUNCTUATION MARK.

A Badly Needed Invention Suggested by
 the Caustic Copy Reader.
 t'I shall be famous I have an idea that will send my name laundering down through the ages, ' remarked the copy reader.
 "Humphi" replied the humorist "It will be the first idea you have ever had. You spend most of your time destroying the good ideas of others ;
 "Well, that may Ee, although ycu never have any idea to destroy, seeing that you get these which you have from Joe Miller's jokebook and the old al manaes. y
 ssOh, well, let's hayo yorr idear'
 To tell the truth, it was suggested to me by you.
 'Ahl I thought as much, and yet you say2-
 Don't be in too big hurry. You haven't heard my idea. :"
 eWhat is it:''
 II have invented punctuation mark for humer. It isintended to show the reader where to laugh. In oldcn times, you know, the point of the joke used to be printed III italics. Nowadays there is 10 way to show the point, and, as many of the jokes, such as yours, have 20 point, it is impossible to print the point in italics. Now, Isuggest that a punctuation mark be placed at the be- ginning and at the end of everything supposed to be funny, so that the reader may be prepared to laugh when he be- gins to read and know when he has reached the point and it is time to laugh. I would suggest that the mark be two little squares placed above ha line, and shall call it by my name. What do you think cf that fer en idea! It was suggested hy yorr stuff, as told you.
