Familiar Dreams Classified. /.

A writer in Longman's Magazine
gives the following classifcations OF
familiar dreams:
(1.) The falling dream-you are
falling over precipice or down the
stairs.
(2.) The flying dream-the dream
that you can fly.
(3.) The dream of more or less in
adequate toilet--that you are not
properly clothed.
az The dream of not being able to
get away from some beast, or injur-
ious person or thing, that is pursuing
you.
(5.) The dream of being drawn ir-
resistibly to some dangerous place,
such as a fire.
(6.) The dream that some darling
wish has been gratified.
(7.) The dream of being about to go
on journey, and being unable to get
your things into your trunk, etc.
cit scarcely needs to be observed, .
he continues, s'that the great major
ity OF the classes in which we have
put dreams are of the kind that would
be described IS bad dreams rather
than good"

Appearances Were Deceptive.

You read of such things, but the
person encountering them in the ex-
periences of real life is the rare excep-
ton.
He was good to look upon, this
straight, slender little chap in frock
overcoat, white pearl buttons at the
back, knickerbockers, an astrakan cap
that looked like lambs wool, ruddy
face of pink and white, jaunty tie and
walking gloves that attracted atten-
tion to long slender hands.
He was going down Cass at an easy,
swinging gait, lifting his hat to an old
gentleman just as Pitcher street was
approached. Up from the Clay school
came great ''push" OF noisy hilari-
GUS boys, healthy and promising lot
of youngsters.
''Look at the dude" shouted one
of them. That was enough and there
was soon a manifest disposition to
whip our little gentleman just because
he looked and acted the part. When
he was surrounded he showed two
rows of perfect teeth in a good ma
tured smile and said pleasant things
to the boys, but they were stirred by
the mob spirit He tried to move on,
and one of them struck at him. This
time he let ont CHEEKY laugh and
chucked his assailant under the chin
in carressing sort of way, for he
was several inches shorter.
But when one of the larger boys,
with a noisy voice and manner, opened
hostilities, it was different. Four of
the mob were down before you could
count 10, the little gentleman handed
his handkerchief to the smallest one,
who had been accidentally hurt. pulled
his gloves straight, went smilingly
down the street and never looked

MINERS AND MORPHINE.
A Necessary Custom Which Is Not Pleas
ant TO (ontemplate.

n NeCeesarv custom w niCn is NOT PIelS-
ant TO tontemplate.
"When / was in the northwest dur
ing last October" said gentleman
with some money invested in mines,
81 employed prospector to go out
into the mountains looking for prop
critics which had been recommended
to me. One day he was to have gone
from our camp over into very rough
and rocky district, but when evening
came he reported that he hadn't made
the trip"
+" why not?' inquired.
because I didn't have my NOR
phine with me, he responded in a
very matter of fact manner.
'Morphine?' said 1 in astonish-
ment, what has that got to do with
it? You are not morphine fend,
are you?'
Not as much of one as you are
tenderfoot, he laughed, and pro.
ceeded to inform me that every pros
pector who knew his business always
carried with him enough morphine to
kill man easily, and that he did SO
in order to end himself quickly in
case of an accident which would dis
able him far away from assistance.
There were many instances of pros
pectors falling over cliffs aud crippling
themselves, or breaking leg in hole
among the rocks, or rendering them
selves helpless in some other way, and
death was sure to follow by starvation
or freezing, or in some sections by
being devoured by wolves or other
wild animals. In order to prevent
such horrible death as any of these,
the prospector simplified matters by
always carrying little packet of NOR
phine. which not only quieted the
pain of the hurt he had sustained, but
put him to sleep pleasantly to wake
no more on earth. 1t struck me at
first as uncanny, not to say wicked,
but 1 got over that feeling after mar
row escape or two, ard carried my
little tin box just like veteran
would. Washington Star.

Our Stock of HarbOrs.

Complaint is loud in the English
newspapers that in the Samoan settle
ment the United States have been
permitted to secure Pago- Pago-"one
of the very finest harbors in the
world"
This complaint reminds students of
geography that the United States al.
ready own pretty nearly all "the very
finest harbors in the world" and also
many of secondary quality which in
Europe would be ranked in the first
class.
The geographers catalogue just
eighteen frst-class natural harbors in
the world that '1ie in the path Of
commerce"-harbors having free en-.
trance, an adequate water depth,
abundant anchorage area, land-locked
protection and easy access to the
shores. OF these eighteen first-class
harbors the United States own fifteen
namely, Portland, Me-; New York,
Norfolk, Delaware Bay and River,
Chesapeake Bay, Albemarle Sound,
Long Island Sound, Newport, Port
Royal, S. c.; Fernandina, Pensacola,
Key West, West Tampa, San Fran
cisco and Puget's Sound.
Of good harbors that do not fulfil
all the "first-class" conditions we have
many which will some day be made

Wonderful Pearl Banks.

Pearls will be more plenty, but
possibly no cheaper, if the British
syndicate in New Caledonia accom-
plisIes what it expects. Some twelve
banks of large extent have been dis
severed along the eastern coast Of
New Caledonia and adjacent islands
oy the aid OF submarine apparatus
which can descend 600 feet below the
surface. BY this machine large
banks of hitherto unreachable banks
If shells have been reached. One Of
these banks is four miles long and 100
yards wide at depth of $50 feet.
Pearls one pound in weight and up;
ward are being found. Large nun.
oers of pearls are sometimes found in
, single shell. Some of these pearls
are valued at $10O to 5000 each. Ex
bert divers from Tahiti are to be
brought to these beds and the indus

wood Pnvements In London.


The people in London have more
success with wooden pavements than
we do over here. Consequently, two
more streets, North Exeter road and
Hampden street, which were lately
torn up, are now being repaved with
wooden pavements, wood having
gained the preference over granite and
asphalt.
This selection by the London City
Engineer of wood over the more COM
mon paving materials in use in other
large cities has caused some surprise
over here, as our own experiments
with wood as paving material have
by no means given satisfaction. The
chief objection to it is its liability to
speedy decay. A number of streets
were paved with wood in this city,
chiefly in the shopping district, with
in the last two or three years, but the
majority of them had to be torn up
again and replaced with a more dur
able paving material.
The report of the City Engineer of
London gives some interesting facts
about traffic over various pavements.
According to his report, horse
travelling on granite pavement may
be expected to fall once for every 132
miles travelled, on asphalt once in 191
miles, and on wood once in 446 miles.
The injury sustained by the animal is
also far less serious from fall upon
wood than upon asphalt or upon gran
ite..-New York Herald.

NIGHT IN The SPRUCE.

Calm stars above, fresh earth beneath,
And in mid-air woven wreath
OF loosely interlacing frs
Reaching to where the night wind stirs;
Hares creep near, a wood-owrs flight
Crosses the circle OF campfire light;
Steps on the moss tell where a doe
Is leading her fawn to the lake below:
And laying there seemed as near
To the forests heart as its own red deer;
And felt the fellowship Of the wood,
And every whisper understood.

Babb trial lasting 20 minutes.

Quiet in Pekin-
Boxers Lying Low in Town But
are Working Afeld.

Pekin, June 2.-American and
other foreign guards numbering
$40 arrived here in the midst Of
the Dragon festival. The streets
were unusually crowded and,
though the people were greatly
interested in the annual spectacle,
no manifestation of hostility was
made. The presence of the
guards has had a marked effect
upon the bearing of the Chinese
towards foreigners.
The "boxers" are evidently
moving a6eId. Unfortunately no
leaders of the s'boXers" have
been arrested, though their cap.
ture would have been easy. All
the government has done has been
to occupy the scenes of the dis
turbances and no real reprcssive
measures have been taken.
