slcepwalker Rides Horseback.

Marley Jewell, son of Postmaster
jewell of Hallowell, Me-, is an ex-
pert equestrian, and for an eight-year-
old youngster he is something OF a
wonder with the ribbons. He de-
lights in horseback riding. The other
morning, about o'clock, Officer John
Quinn espied Marley coming down
Water street on horseback at fast
pace. When near Central street he
was seen to fall from the horse just as
the animal was turning the corner.
Mr.. Quinn lifted the 10y, who was
unconscious, and carried him into the
Office, where it was some time before
he regained consciousness.
This returning consciousness was
the awakening from the sleep which
Master Marley had dropped into the
night before. While yet in slumbel
he had arisen from bed, clothed him
self, gone to the stable, saddled thu
horse and taken wild ride over Hal
lowell's streets, to drop into the ca
pacious arms OF Officer Quinn. It'll

Have Fishes Memory,

BIOLOGISTS have long been in doubt
as to whether fishes are gifted with
the faculty Of remembering persons
and places or not. Some claim that
they cannot remember, while others
insist that they are endowed with
memory though possibly only in
limited degree. The following story
seems to show that the latter are
right. A student OF the Polytechnic
school, in Paris, recently noticed that
whenever he walked with some friends
in the Luxembourg gardens the fishes
in the large basins there regularly
followed him as he strolled around
the little ponds.
As the students never feed the fishes
and hardly pay any attention to them,
such conduct was inexpIicable until it
was solved by the gardener. whose
duty it is to feed the fish. The uni,
form worn by the students of the
Polytechnic school is black, with red
stripes, and that worn by the gardener
and other attendants is very similar
Now, evidently the fish though bit thai
the students were gardeners, who has
come to supply them with food, as IL
no other way can we account for thei
habit of following the students when
ever they walked round the basins
We must conclude, therefore, that
whatever may be the case with othe1
fish, those at least in the Luxembourg
gardens have an excellent memory

The city OF Lyons has been expert

Iioue has been paved with devitrified
glass. This new product Is obtained
from broken glass heated to temper

In matrices by hydraulic force. The
glass pavement is laid In the form OF
blocks, eight inches square, each block
containing sixteen parts in the form
OF checkers. These blocks are so
closely fitted together that water can
! not pass between them, and the whole
pavement looks like one gigantic

THE RED LILY.
A Pretty Legend Of the Flowers In tie
Garden Of Gethsemane.


The red lily Of Palestine Is in size
and shape much like our Easter lilies
but they are yellow With purple
streaks UPON the outside and red
blush tint within. In the bottom OF
each bell there are six drops OF sweet
water-like tears. II you take these
away six more will at once take their
places. About this flower this pretty
story is told by the simple folk who
live near there: Once the Garden
of Gethsemane was full Of flowers OF
all kinds, and among them none so
fair and queenly as the slender, stately
lily, with all her clustering bells proud
ly upright. 1t was eventime, and the
Lord came to walk awhile In His gar
den. As lie passed along, each gentle
flower bowed before Him while He
breathed the refreshment Of the quiet
hour upon them; but when He came to
the lily her naughty head remained
erect In the defiance OF conscious
beauty. The Lord paused and looked
upon her. For second she braved
that bright, mild eye Of reproof, then
slowly bent her s!lvery bells, while
bushes swept In painful brilliancy
over them. Still the Lords gaze rested
on her; lower sank her head, deeper
burned her crimson; then tear after
tear welled up in the lily cups. At TIL:
the lord passed on. When rnornin'
came ali the flowers lifted theih head
and smiled to see the light; all but tn
lily, that once white queen amen
them. Her head remained bowed il
shame, while to this day she blushe
over her vanity, and the tears Of re
pentance still flow in the delicate cup
of the flower that refused to bend be
fore the Lord as He walked in tn
. Garden Of Gethsenane at the evenin
hour"

There are some things that the

bellishment of their capital city. NO
absolute reason exists why London
should not he as cheerful and beautl-

mate is small, and it is not wholly to
the advantage of the French metrop-
oils. And if money could be con-
sideration, there is quite as much OF
that commodity in London as in Paris.
