The First Doinb and Mortar.

The Koreans invented the first bomb
and mortar. The lust for revenge had
taken such q grip upon them that
nothing sufficed to hold them in check
when once they had the enemy on the
run. Before the first year of the war
had expired the Koreans had inflated
the firearms of their enemies, though
pebbles were at first the only missiles
used. They evon surpassed the in
vaders in the use of gunpowder, for
the records tell US that certain gen.
eral invented q piece of ordnance
which, when discharged, would throw
itself bodily over the walls of the be-
sieged fortress, and when it exploded
the Japanese who had crowded around
to examine it were either torn to pieces
by the flying debris or choked by the
sulphurous fumes of the burning pow
der. The startling statement that tho
mortar threw itself over the wall is
merely The work of On excited imagina-
ton, whereby the proiectile became
confused with the machine used in it's
projection. We are told that the se-
cret of the invention perished with its
inventor, bat that the mortar then
used still lies in one Of the Govern
ment storchouses in the fortress OF
Nan-ham, which guards the southern
approach to tue capital.

Feeling His Bumps.

A phrenologist who has been tour
ing the country and giving lectures in
the art tells the following "good one'
on himself. He was in the habit of
inviting people of different vocations
to come upon the stage, and he would
dilate upon and expound the pecu-
liarities of their cranial construction.
He had come to that portion of his
lecture where he dealt with the
criminal form of the Uranium, and ad.
dressed the audience:
eff there is any person present who
at any time has been the inmate of q
prison he will oblige me by coming
upon the platform.
A heavily-built man responded to
this invitation.
"You admit that you have been in
prison, sir?"
II have, sir" was the unblushing
answer.
"Will you kindly tell me how many
years you have spent behind prison
bars?"
"About twenty years." unhesitat-
ingly replied the subject.
"Dear, DEAR" exclaimed the pro-
fessor. "Will you sit down, please?"
The subject sat down in a chair in
the centre Of the stage. The pro-
fessor ran his fingers rapidly through
the hair of the subject and assumed o
thoughtful expression.
"This is o most excellent specimen.
The indications of a depraved charac-
ter ore very plainly marked. The
organs of benevolence and esteem are
entirely absent; that of Destructive
ness is developed to an abnormal de-
gree. I could have told Instantly
without the confession of this man
that his life had been erratic and
criminal. What was the crime for
which you were imprisoned?"
"I never committed any crime" :"
growled the man in the chair.
"But you said that you had been an
inmate of prison for twenty years!'
I'm the governor of the jail"
