A GOOD LAW.

MANY suits against newspapers
for alleged libels are baseless, and
are brought on behalf Of irresponsi-
BILE persons as . mere speculation
on the theory that, while risking
nothing, there is chance OF being
"bought of" or getting something
through jury trisl.
Senator Davis has introduced .
bill in the legislature providing that
persous who bring libel suits against
newspapers must give bonds Tor the
costs. While working no hardship
to plaintiffs having rational ground
for bringing suit, such law would
deter many who now begin ridicu-
lous actions for mere bluff, or Tor no
toriety, or on the chance OF getting
something out Of the defendant. !,
The Davis bill is reasonable ana
salutary measure, and its enactment
would at once preserve newspapers
from needless annoyance and save
the courts from waste OF valuable
time. New York Herald.

The --LATEST Man.

The LATEST man in North America
discovered himself the other evening
in the swell bachelor apartments not
far from Lafayette square where he
lives. He was lying on n couch In his
lounging room, smoking cigar, when
the cigar went out-that Is to say,
the fire at the end of the cigar depart
ed. The man raised himself on one
arm with great effort, and snapped the
messenger bell that was installed over
the couch. Then he recllned and wait
cd After about ten minutes there was
Il knock at the door, and a messenger
boy entered.
"Djou ring, sir?" asked the boy.
Eyes, SON" said the LATEST man in
the western hemisphere. Just gimme
match off that table there, will you"
The boy handed the man on the
couch a match and waited. The man
relighted his cigar and smoked on.
"D'jou want me to go somewhere,
sir?" asked the boy, fidgeting.
"No that's ALL" said the man. Take
that half dollar on the table"
Then the boy went out, grlnning.
That man ought to be on some gov

Mozart, being once on visit at Mar
settles, went incognito to hear the per-
formance Of his "Villanella Rapita.'
He had reason to be tolerably we'll
satisfied, till, in the midst of the prin-
cipal aria, the orchestra, through some
error in the copying Of the score,
sounded ID natural where the COM
poser had written ID sharp. This sub
stitution did not injure the harmony,
but gave commonplace character to
the phrase, and obscured the sentiment
of the composer.
Mozart no sooner heard 1t than he
started up vehemently, and, from the
middle of the pit, cried out IN voice
OF thunder: will you play d sharp,
you wretchesi"
The sensation produced in the theater
may be imagined. The actors were
astounded, the lady who was singing
stopped short, the orchestra followed
her example, and the audience, with
loud ordinations, demanded the ex-
pulsion of the offender. He was nc
cordingly seized, and required to name
himself. He did so, and at the name
of Mozart the clnmor subsidized. and
was succeeded by shouts Of applause
from all sides,
1t was insisted that the opera should
be recommended. Mozart was install
ed In the orchestra, and directed the
whole performance. This time the ID
sharp was played in its proper place.
and the musicians themselves were
surprised at the superior effect pro

THE PARIS EXPOSITION.

The French government announces
there will be financial congress at the
Paris exposition, and all leading tinan-
cial institutions throughout the world
have been asked to send representa-
tives.
A boat IS feet beam. As feet long
and ten feet deep is to convey Firmin
Moindron, an old sea captain, from
California TO the Paris exposition. This
vessel is to be hewn out OF the trunk
of a redwood tree, and will be schooner

One of the attractions of the Paris
exposition will be a gigantic umbrella
$50 feet high, made by Chicago
man. To each rib of the umbrella a
car capable of seating so people will
be attached, and these cars will he lift
ed to a point even with the top of the
structure, when they will be held long
enough to allow the occupants to enjoy
the view.
The lighting Of the Paris exposition
will call for 10000 horse power. At the
Paris exposition of 1853, the motive
power was only $50 horse power; in
1867, 626 horse power; in 1878, $500

gine drawing a train
Ground sharks brought up from no
more than 500 fathoms die before reach
ing the surface of the water.
At the bottom of the ocean the tenn
perature is down to freezing and often
below it. There is no light, and the
enormous pressure of a ton to the
square inch in every thousand fathoms,
or 16 times more pressure than we en-
dure.
The fauna OF the deep sea are modi-
fled forms of those which live in shall
low water to-day, and they have been
driven down to ocean depths through
the law of the survival of the fittest.
In the battle for existence their
stronger rivals triumphed in the sur
face waters, and these, beaten and dis
couraged, sank below. Of course, ami
mails driven to these depths would grad
ually change in form. Down to 900
fathoms their eyes have become larger,
so that they may see by the faint light.
After 1000 fathoms the eyes are huge
or else disappear altogether, and enor-
nous feelers take their places. AT great
depths eyes are OF no nse.

carry him to another grated door, which
opens into a dimly lighted room. Reas-

forward and seats himself in an easy
chair at a clean, iron-topped table, the

feeling which came over him when he
observed the resemblance of his quar-

A lift drops at the side from an upper
floor, and the sister, who appears to be
ministering to his wants with mechnn-

he has an excellent meal before him.

came from some place in Canada, and
that by tracing back the lines OF ad-
