Specimens of Lese Maieste.

A German editor has been sentenced to
more than four years Imprisonment for
lese majestic against the emperor's second
son, a small boy in knickerhockers. Yet
the offending article, which in itself was
nothing, was published in the absence and
without the knowledge of the editor. Com

William have eXcelled anything ever

Our Wonderful Lanpuaoa::

A little girl was looking at picture
of a number of ships when she ex-
claimed, "See what flock Of ships!"
We corrected her by saying that a
flock of ships was called a fleet, and a
fleet of sheep is called flock. And
here We may add, for the benefit of
the foreigner, who is mastering the
intricacies of our language, in respect
to nouns of multitude, that a flock OF
wolves is called a pack, pack of
thieves is called gang, and a gang

WOMEN In THE MIRROR,
MAGIC IN THE LOOKING GLASS
IN THE FAR EAST. E.
Queer Conceits That Are Found In
Oriental Mirrors Some queer Theories
Advanced as to the Cause Of the
ELECTS,

Every girl who wishes to try the exc
pertinent can possess magic looking
glass on Halloween night, but in China
and Japan magic mirrors are among
the daily possessions of the bright
eyed oriental women. The ladies Of
japan use in making their toilet
snall round mirror, several inches in
diameter, made of kind of spectrum
metal, brightly polished and coated
WITH mercury. At the back there are
various devices, including Chinese and
Japanese written characters, emblems,
landscapes, etc. These stand out in
bright relief and are polished like the
front surface. Now, if the direct rays
of the sun are allowed to fall upon the
face of the mirror and are then re-
fected in a screen in many cases,
though not in all, the figures at the
back will appear to shine Sarough the
substance Of the mirror as bright lines
upon a. moderately bright ground
These are so-called Japanese magic"
mirrors, but we believe they are found
in China as WE'LL
There have been many theories as
to the process of endowing mirrors
with this peculiar property we have
mentioned. Some writer's consider that
the pressure to- which the mirror was
subjected during the polishing, and
which is greatest on the parts in relief,
was concerned in the production of
figures. If the back of the mirror is
rubbed with a blunt pointed. instru-
ment bright lines appear in the image
corresponding to the position of the
part rubbed. This experiment is quite
easy to repeat. Tt would seem as if
the pressure on the back during polish
ing would cause some change in the
rejecting surface corresponding to the
raised parts whereby the amount of
light reflected was greater, or suppos-
ing that of the light which falls upon
the surface part is diffused and the
rest concentrated those parts CORE
spending to the raised portion on the
back are altered by the pressure in
such way that more Tight is reflected
and therefore bright image appears.
The theory now generally accepted is
that OF Profs., Ayrton and Perry in
1878. They showed that the patterns
seen in the reflection we're due to diff
ferences in the curvature of the sur
face produced by bending and subse-
quent+ polishing. Warming a mirror
also alters it's possibilities. A thick
mirror which gave no patterns when
cold sometimes developed one upon
being heated. Prof. Thompson has
shown that a glass mirror having a
pattern cut on the back developed
image properties when the mirror was
bent. BY using very thick glass, pass
ing spirit lamp behind a strip of
mirror; dark band may be caused
to pass along the screen, Illuminated
by light reflected in the mirror Prof
Thompson has also found that Japa-
nese mirrors when imported could be
made SO by bending them mechanically
so as to make them slightly convex.

SNIPE SHOOTING.

Preserves on the Atlantic Coast Leased
by Ex-President Cleveland.
Ex-President Cleveland, in company
with Rev. E. E. Phillips, pastor of the
Village NJ. E. church, has become the
proprietor of leased property for shoot
ing purposes on Sandwich marshes.
Mr.. Cleveland's first visit here was
during the flight of snipe and plovcr
early, last fall. Previous to that he
had heard Of the shooting advantages,
and: inquired of the selectmen for some
one, to- guide him to the grounds. He
was refereed to Rev. Mr.. Phillips, and
from: this, Introduction great shooting
possibilities have been opened for the
eX-president. Mr.. Cleveland's first
trip was not successful, but on the
second, visit a bag of twenty plover
was taken, and the days shooting I'M
doubtedly established in the visitors

ming east to- the site of the old Cape
Cod canal property, and from there in
a southerlY direction to Sycamore Hill,
taking in a vast area of meadow be-
tween Scussett Harbor, the old canal
and Sycamore. The distance across
the preserve is such that one could
scarcely see birds on clear day when
they first crossed the line of the pre-
serve. On the shore line east of the
harbor the lease extends to the low
water mark, md on the west to the
harbor, ON what are Scussett Harbor
marshes proper, to high water mark.
The whole entirely surrounds the main
harbor, making it one Of the best

WASHINGTON GUIDES

To BE in Style They Have Formed
Syndicate.
Not to be behindhand under the ex-
listing condition of affairs. the Capitol
guides-the dozen men who initiate
the brides and grooms of the outer
world into the mysteries of the great
bullding-lately merged themselves
into syndicate, says the New York
Herald. They elected Howard Ken
nedy, who has been a pilot through
the intricate reefs and shoals of the
nations political harbor for twenty
years or more, as chief. These guides
form an interesting class in them
selves, the men being well known to
all the Senators and Representatives
who have served any time and to the
newspaper correspondents. The ma
jority of them are men who have
passed middle age and are of emf
nent responsibility. Some, if not
many, of the jobs in Washington are
sinecures, with good pay at that. The
office of guide differs entirely in this
respect from any other. They are DO
sitlons the appointments to which are
not slnecures and have no salary at
tached. Whatever is made is in the
way of tips from the visitors who are
shown the sights. Heretofore the
guides have been allowed so cents an
hour for a party not exceeding three
persons. Since the Guides association
has been formed the sum of rs cents
is usually asked from each member
of the party unless fixed charge is
arranged in advance. The fact that
the Congressional Library is now To-
Gated in. its own building is great
loss to the guides. Guides are not al
lowed in the new building.

that, curiously enough, M. Loubet has
retained. ss@S s&
The chairs and sofas do not really
date back to the time of Louis XIV. The
woodwork was carved in the time Of
Louis Philippe, while the covers are
old Louis XVI. silk. The window lam
brequins are real Louis XIV, with val
ances of Gobelin tapestry. And all the
gaudy cabinets and writing desks and
carved and gilded tables are pure ex-
amples of that ford time, including
relics from many noble chateau pill
LACED in the revolution. One of the
large mirrors. with it's frame, was made
for the Pompadour. The central COM
mode, holding little articles of bric-a-
brac, belonged to Nine. Dubarry. Faure
delighted in this gay decoration. Per-
haps NJ. Loubet will get used to it. Or
he may not expect to stay in the Elysee
long enough to make a change worth
while.
There is another salon, somewhat
smaller, in which Nine. Carnot re-
ceived every morning the officer dor
dominance, with whom she arranged the
order of the day. Mile. Lucie Faure
transformed this salon into gorgeous
boudoir, not entirely for herself, for
it was here that she received the danes
and damsels high up in the. patriotic
League of the Children of France, of
which she was honorary president.
Properly speaking, these are the only
private rooms on the ground floor of
the Elysee. Nine. Faure had no part
in them. Like a good daughter, Mile.
Lucie, aged "a, relieved her mother Of
a great deal of responsibility
The Faure family occupied four bed
rooms. OF these the president used
two; the great south room, where the
fair Pompadour took sun baths, he oc-
cupied in winter to profit by the sun
light. Then, as the summer came he
fled to a cooler, smaller room, quite
simple in it's furniture, with small
brass bed and an immense bath tub.
The bedroom of Nine. Faure had been
previously occupied by Mines. De Mac
Mahon and Grevy. President and Nine.
Carnot occupied it together. Mile. Lu-
Gle Faure arranged for herself suite
of three rooms, large toilet room,
with smart bathtub and an ultra pri-
vate boudoir, charming in detail She

known as the Monkey palace. The
rest of the ground floor Of the Eysee
has,, happily enough, really an i'm
prfssive effect. This is due chiefly to
tn care of M. de Gourlet, a man of
tabte, whose advice with regard to fur

had been previously occupied by Ern-

who used the boudoir as his study. M.
Loubet having two sons, the feminine
choice of furniture in these rooms will
have to be modified.
It was only when he came to his own
bedroom, in the south room, that the
new president revolted. He did not
object to the delicately beautiful Louis
XIV. wood carving of the cornices and
pillars, doors and panels, but it did
not take him long to order out the lit

and gilded chairs, great bed which was
