The Migration of swallows.

A Dutch correspondent writes:
Anthem, the capital of the prov
ince of Gueldelrand, as is known, is
situated upon the Rhine, which is
crossed by a bridge. Passing over it
one day, one of my friends witnessed
remarkable scene. Myriads of
swallows, apparently those living in
the environs, were crowded togeth-
er, as they are every year in exactly
the same place. When they few UP,
which they did several times before
starting for good, the mass looked
like a huge black moving column
When they came down again, it was
done with deafening shr.A and
shrieking or whistling or piplng-a
curious noise, which it is almost i'm,
possible to describe. 1t seems as if
they wanted to make sure that all
GOULD stand the voyage, for many
were fallen upon by great mum bers
of the others, who pecked them to
death.
after different false starts they
went away like a whirlwind, leaving
upon the fields those that probably
were too weak and so were murder
ed first by their companions. People
may wonder how these birds in diff
ferent countries start upon almost
the same day. The mystery must be
solved by ornithologists. For my
part, | think that as soon as the
days shorten they depart, as they
need much longer evening light to
catch the thousand of gnats they
want every day. Westminster Ga.

On the continent of European
Russia espeoially-skates made en-
tirely of gold, except as regards one
part of the blade, have been given
as presents for years. / have seen, in
the possession of one of the Russian
diplomatic staff, a pair of skates
worth quite e3, 900, and it is quite
common among the wealthy class to
have every portion of the fittings
ornamented with precious stones.
The empress of Austria has a
pair of skates, and uses them, too,
which are said to have cost e10, 900.
Lately the young queen of Holland
was presented with a beautiful pair,
with chased golden blades and a
profuse diamond ornamentation,
which cost half that amount Ed

The Kaiser and the Bicycle.

A tale of Kaiser Wilhelm and
bicycle: One day while at Kiel, as
Prince Henry of Russia sailed past
the Hohenzollern in his yacht, he
noticed that the deck of the former
vessel was spread with linoleum,
and that four of the officers were
disporting themselves on cycles. per-
forming Fights and other figures
with perfect ease and success. Prince
Henry, who was much amused at
the sight, related what he had seen
to his brother, as the kaiser was
about to start on his northern cruise.
The emperor Immediately sent for
the four officers and asked them,
'Well, why is there no riding it |
am on board?" The reply was that
the first officer, Corvet Captain
B., had few days before forbid
den any more cycling on board.
Bring the first officer to me and
a Cycle also," commanded his maj
esty, and as Captain B appeared
a wheel was fetched, and the gallant
officer was compelled to mount the
iron steed, the kaiser holding him
on with tight grip, while the court
photographer took a snap shot, to
the delight of all on board. After
this the young officers were at lib
erty to cycle as much as they pleas
ed, to the intense amusement of the
kaiser and the i'll disguised vexation
of Captain B., who, it is to be
hoped, was duly f1attered when his
majesty presented copies of the pho
tograph to all the members OF the
suit and the officers of the Hohen-
zollern, himself included. - New

The Coroner's Inquest.

Under some circumstances, and
especially if the medical man in
charge is one of high standing and
repute, the coroner's jury brings in
a verdict strictly in accordance with
the result of the doctors examina-
ton.
This has been commented on, and
some surprise has been expressed
that IL men should be called from
their business and put to more or
less trouble and annoyance, when
the Doctors certificate might, and
usually does, answer all purposes.
1t has been suggested that repu-
table physician should be attached
to the coroner's office, and that
every death about which there was
the slightest suspicion should be
carefully inquired into The knowl-
edge that the most rigid scrutiny
would be exercised in cases where
the death was not clearly traceable
to well understood causes might act
as restraining influence among the
ignorant and depraved where infant
mortality and the taking off of the
sick and infirm might seem to be an
advantage to the survivors.
The coroner's jury business is not
very well managed, and it has more
than once been suggested that a
radical change in the administration
of this office ought to be made. -

The Monkey and the Horses.

A coachman who for many years
had been in charge of a large stable
of valuable carriage horses gave the
writer some curious instances of the
nervous illusions of horses. Once
only did he find a whole stable in
anything like permanent fear. He
had taken ten carriage horses to a
large house in Norfolk, where they
stood in line in ten stalled stable.
There was a tame monkey in the
stable, very quiet, which slept un-
chained, sitting on one of the divi-
sions of the stalls. On the first
night, about II O'Clock, he heard a
disturbance in the stable, the horses
stamping and kicking and very
uneasy. He got u light, entered the
stable and found them all in a
muck sweat. Nothing which could
disturb them was there except the
monkey, apparently asleep on it's
perch. He quieted the horses, locked
the door and went away. Soon the
disturbance began again, and this
time, slipping quietly up, he drew a
pair of steps to one of the windows,
and, as the moon was shining bright
~, had view of the interior The
monkey was the source of terror.
1t was amusing itself by steeple-
chase along the whole length of the
table, leaping alternately from the
division Of the stall to a horses back
or head, then off on to the next rail
and so on. The horses were trem-
bling with fright, though many of
them had not the least objection to
a cat or a pigeon sitting on their
backs. Yet the monkey had not hurt
any of them, and their panic was
clearly the result of illusion. Old
fashioned people used to identify
any strange living object which
frightened them with the devil. !"
Perhaps for horses the devil" is
anything which they cannot under
stand. London Spectator.
