The Waterloo Fraud.

IL is reported that n fraud which
was in vogue at the period of Water
loo has been revived in London in con-
nection with the war. Two city men,
on comparing note, found that each
had been ~accostcd in n northern SUI
burb by n middle-agcd man with a
Bardolphian nose. who asked to be al
lowed 10 look at $40 evening paper.
On scanning the li,' of wounded he
seemed stricken with grief. and ex-
planned that he had ascertained that
he had lost a son belonging TO such
and such a regiment. He told a piieJus
tale of poverty, AMI ,aid that his wife
was an invalid and that the sad news
would break her heart. Both of the
gentlemen were moved to give the
mar n few shilling. but they discoy-
cred afterward that he had on each oc-
casion pointed out . different name in
the killed list!-Troy Times.

In I7s4M. La Combe published a book,
entitled "A Picture of London in
which inter ALA he says: 1.-THE high
roads 30 or 40 miles round London are
filled with armed highwaymen and
footpads." This was then pretty true,
though the expression filled is some
what of an cXaggeration. The medical
student Of 40 or 80 years ago seems TO
have been anticipated in 1854, for NJ.
La Combe tells us that "the brass

II is averred that the Beers are
chiefly responsible for the threatened
extinction of the giraffe In South
Africa. The giraffe is hunted for its
skin, which is extraordinarily thick
and tough. Specimens are sometimes
an inch thick. and bullets often fail
to penetrate 1t. Owing to the tough
ness Of its skin, the giraffe can break
its way through thorny thickets
which hunters with horses are unable
to penetrate. The giraffe was former
ly very abundant in South Africa, but
now IL has become very scarce there.
and efforts are being made TO protect
it by legislation. The Beers have also
practically exterminated the lion in
their country. 1t is said they killed
6,OOO lions during the settlement Of
the Transvaal.-Youth's Companion.

CREATION OF CATS AND MICE.
An italian Legend Involving 81.
Francis de Paula and
the Devil.

/ send you a translation / have made
OF an Italian legend of how the cat was
created, written by Antonio de Nino.
Many are the proverbs about eats in
the Abruzzi.
St. Francis de Paula performed so
many miracles that the devil was made
i'll with envy. Once he entered the cell
of st. Francis in the shape of a grand
nobleman with n box full of heavy gold
pieces. Here, Francis" said he, take
these, don't remain in this miserable
howell, enjoy life; it is strewn with
roses, why do you collect all the
thorns?" St. Francis, without much
ado, raised his hand and made the sign
of the cross, ~whereupon the fine gentle
man disappeared amid clouds of sui
phur smoke. Another time the devil
led lovely damsels, barefooted ard
lightly clothed, into the cell of the
saint. and then queens and expresses
of glorious beauty, covered with jew
els and wrapped in mantles of gold it's
sue. But ST. Francis stood there like
a log of wood, and at last made the
sign of the cross, when everything
disappeared. The devil was furious.
IL must find some way to make this
stolid fellow lose patience"
After much thought he rubbed his
hands with delight. lie created mice,
and they multiplied by thousands in
the wink OF an eye. The cell of St.
Francis was filled by them. and he
tried in vain TO drive them GU with
his hands and feet. But as he drove
them out of the door they swarmed
in nj the window. and when lie closed
both door and window they crept up
through holes in the brick floor or
dropped down through cracks in the
ceiling. Then they clanbered up the
saints tunic, made beds in his straw
mattress, played pranks in his proyi-
sion basket and were generally often
sive. At last st. Francis, after recit-
ing n feryent prayer, burst out laugh
ing. The mice were beginning to at
tack him in thousands, when n beauti-
full little cat was created in the sleeve
of his tunic. So he cried to the mice:
Il implorc you TO stop and go your
way or you will repent it,"
The mice answered by pushing their
noses against the bare skin of the saint,
as though they wanted to pierce
through him. so he drew the beautiful
little cat cut of his sleeve, and il sprang
at the mice blessed with such miracu-
lous hunger that it swallowed two at
a time Of the big ones and. three or four
of the little ones. St. Francis hoped
they would have been exterminated,
and rushed TO stop up a hole in the
ceiling The had already shut the door
and the Window, but he was not quick
enough. A pair of mice escaped, and
thus we have those tiresome mice all
over the world. ST. Francis then Vt
tered another prayer, and his beautiful
li;tle cat was granted a companion.
They multiplied exceedingly. and have
always been favorites with devout old
ladies' because they are a creation of
St, Francis.-London Spectator.

the satisfactory manner in which all
details were carried out.
1t was the first exhibition OF this
character ever held in Norfolk. and
so far as we know, in Virginia.: and it
is to be hoped that its success will in
duce the Art League to hold one or
more exhibitions of this character each
year.
None of the pictures were bad, any
many possessed such merit that they
could hold their own alongside of pic
lures made by professional photo
graphers.
some criticism has been made that
few of the exhibitors closely ap-
proach. If they do not belong, in the
professional class. notably one gentle
man who is said to be interested in n
local photograph studio. In answer to
this 1t is stated that. while the gentle
man mentioned is interested in n studio
he does not work therein or himself
make photographs for profit.
Among the most beautiful objects at
the exhibition were five magnificent
volumes-de-luXe on Japan. written and
illustrated by Japanese scholars and
artists. The illustrations were beauti-
fully colored photographs. These rare
treasures were kindly loaned by their
owner. Mr.. II. II. Trice.
