Thought He Wa. satan.

Upon II of his professional visits
to Washington the late lamcntcd
Hermann. the magician and p%restidigi-
tatcur, almost caused a stampede
among the ignorant colored people.
To this day some of them think that
Satan himself WAS present in person
upon that occasion.
One afternoon Hermann visited the
Centre Market. On the pavement out
side of the market it is customary for
several hundred aged colorcd people
from the surrounding country i'm Nir-
ginia and Maryland 10 gather OH mar

by which they warm themselves.

FOR THE CARS SAFETY.
Regulations Sometimes Cause Death

The Russian Emperor rarely travels

burg without the death being recorded
of some unfortunate individual who
has approached too close to the railroad
tracks in defiance of the warnings of
the sentinels by which it is guarded, :
and who in consequence thereof has
been shot dead. An incident of this
kind occurred during the recent journey
of the imperial couple from st. Peters
burg to Warsaw, and the fact has now
been brought to light that the peasant
thus killed was an old grandfather who
had become stone deaf through agc,
n who therefore could not hear the
challenge addressed to him by the SEN
tinel. Deeply distressed as is the Gar
ina by the occurrence, no blame can he
attached to the soldier, who merely act
ed in obedience to the very stringent
orders which he had received. For
days before the Car travels along any
railroad line the latter is patrolled OH
both sides by sentinels. who are sta
toned at II distance of 200 yards from
one another. They keep their eyes
open, but otherwise are allowed to take
it easy, taking what is known as the
first position" the rifle being slung
from the shoulder. Six hours before
the passage of the imperial train they

to say they shoulder their rifles and.

But WI were Il houscful of girls, and
when Thanksgiving came that last year
of the war VIC were busy as bees sending
supplies to our soldiers. who were out at
elbows and toes. And we had decided
not to 20 to church, as the regular New
England custom is on Thanksgiving Day,
but to stay mt home and knit. However,
the minister called the day before Thanks

morrow. 1t will be a special service and

''Thcn sister Kate spoke up saucily and
asked: Isn't there as much goodness in
staying at home and knitting socks for our
boys in blue"
HE looked Mt her in a sort of dazcd
way. Poor man he had only two boys
and they both went to the war and never
came back. Kate caught a sob in her
throat and begged his forgiveness, and
the smile he gave her was like n sunbeam
lighting up n wintry landscape.

Around the palace of the Prince there
were many soldiers, who watched to
see that no harm came to the royal fam.
lily. These soldiers always saluted the
children whenever they went by. This
time, however, the first soldier the lit.
tie prince passed stood still AND
straight, and did not salute. The Prince
looked %displeased, but said nothing.
Presently he came to another soldier:
but he also stood still and did not sa,
lutte. When the walk was finished and
they had passed many soldiers, none Of
whom paid any attention to the Prince,
the little fellow dashed into his father
exclaiming:
Papa! papa! You must whip all
your soldiers! They refuse to salute
me when l pass"
".Ah, my son." said the Crown Prince,
they do rightly, for clean soldiers e

After that he took a shower bath

Odd Things About Rainbows.
Did you ever see n rainbow in the
west?
the Philadelphia Times gives some in
teresting facts in regard to Il rainbow
and how 1t is formed.
1. 1t is never seen except when the
sun is shining in one part OF the sky,
and rain is falling in the other, or OBJ
posite, part.
.. 1t is generally seen in the east, be-
cause our showers come from the west:
and pass off toward the east.
5. 1t cannot be formed in the east ex-
cept in the afternoon.
4. 1t cannot be formed in the west
except in the morning.
5. 1t is nevc seen at midday. be-
cause the sun is then above us. and WI,
cannot, therefore, stand between 1t and
the rain. :
Some of you may wonder why q rain
bow is always semi-circular in shape.
AS a matter of fact, 1t is always Il
complete circle, but we can see but
One-half of the circle. because the earth
cuts off our view. II we were poised
in the air, high above the earth. we
could e 1t all. The circular shape is
due to the fact that the raindrops arc
round and that each drop reflects hut
one color to u eyes. 1t may strike
you as a strange thing, but it is true.
that no two persons see the same bow.
That is because no two persons can
possibly occupy the same position. and
thus the reflections fall differently
upon their eyes.
