HIS Hair Turned Black.

There have been several instances Of
q mans hair turning from white to
black. One Of the most notable perhaps
was that Of an engineer in the FIRE de-
partment Of Louisville. His age was
65, and he was on duty during tre-
mendous fire, for 1 consecutive hours
The spray was constantly flying from
the hose, and he became, in consequence
of the lowness Of temperature Of the
$atmosphere, covered from head to foot
with ice He wore q ekullcap and q
helmet on the top Of that, SO that his
head was the warmest part Of his body
and not at all exposed. though his eye
brows and whiskers became wet and
were frozen stiff The afternoon after
the exposure his hair. which had be-
come gray eight years before and had
for three years been white, turned per-
fectly black Louisville Post

"A sWhimsical WAGER

"A young Austrian nobleman. who
had the reputation Of being a brilliant
talker, made q wager with club friend
that during the first year Of his mar
riage with the daughter Of certain
count he would preserve a rigid silence
when in her presence, and. in fact,
would not speak q single word to her.
This resolution he faithfully kept but:
owing to the fact that the wager was
not made public, some very curious COM
sequences ensued.
His wife. believing him to be insane,
privately sent q brain specialist to ex-
anime the tacitnrn gentle tleman. He was
on the point Of being conveyed to q
sanatarinm when he sdisclosed the rea-;,
son Of his behavior. When the year was
up, be- claimed his wager, which was
duly paid. l 81

How Houdin. the Magician, Ayyed the
arabs Into submission
During the French conquest Of Al
geria 1s30-1 1s33 negotia ions for peace
We're entered upon with the sheiks of
certain Arab tribes. and a meeting for
thesettl tlement of terms was arranged to
take place at the French headquarters.i
The French officers received their guests
with great hospitality, and after the
banquet given in their honor, at which
the utmost splendor was employed. in
order to dazzle their eyes and captivate
their simple minds, an adjournment
was made to a large hall, where NJ
Houdin, the celebrated conjurer, who
had accompanied the French forces.
gave an exhibition Of his skill.
They stared in open mouthed wonder
at all the tricks that were performed,
and a feeling Of awe crept over them as
they witnessed the mysterious appear
ance and disappearance Of various OBJ
jects But what appeared to them most
marvellous was the apparent manufac-
ture Of cannon balls. M. Houdin passed
round among them q high hat, which
they examined very carefully, but with
out suspecting any thing unusual il eli
ther its make or its appearance. When
the hat was returned to him the con-
jurer placed it on the floor in the mid
die Of the stage in full view Of his an
dience. He then proceeded to take from
the hat cannon balls apparently with
out number, and rolled them acrose the
floor into the wings With this the per-
formance terminated. 33#
The chiefs then consulted among
themselves and came to the conclusion
that il was useless to offer any opposi-
tion to an army that could turn out It's
ammunition in SO easy manner. They
therefore signed the required treaty and
departed to tell their friends in the
desert Of the wonderful power Of the
invaders Cincinnati Enquirer
