EPISODE OF NAVAL SERVICE. Story Over Whihch Washington So- ctety Is Much Amused.

This Is a naval secret, or was until recently. How the facts in the case got abroad no one seems to know, but that they are now the subject of gos- sip and hilarity at the nations capital is a matter of notoriety. As the story goes there resides at Washington tine wife of distinguished naval officer who has been long on distant foreign service. She. very obviously. takes great pleasure in the socials activity of which she has long been a prominent light, while he, rumor declares, hath no joy in balls and receptions and re- gardeth calls as weariness to both lovely and lively lady received from her husband in his remote exile a letter announcing in words indicative of something between deep grief and fierce anger that the Navy Department had cruelty ordered him to add another to the three years abroad which he had just completed. The wife instantly summoned up all her large talents for action and volubility and began a wig orous campaign in behalf of her home sick husband.
 For a while the Secretary of the Navy and other officials whom she in- terviewed withstood her frequent as- saults with firmness, but at last MT. Long could endure her pleadings and reproaches no longer, and he silently laid before her letter to himself from the absent husband in which the latter cordially thanked the secretary for giv- ing him. in response to an urgent re- quest previously made, an extra year

His Own Quotation at Last.

 The Rev. Dr. B. was what Is com monly termed ia popular preacher" ]" not however. by drawing on his own stores, but by the knack which he possessed by appropriating the thoughts and language of other grea divines who had gone before him to his own use, and by q SlSiliful splicing and dovetaiiing of passagss so as to make a whole Fortunately for him, those who composed his audience were not deeply skilled in pulpit lore, and with such he passed for a wonder of erudition. &
 It happened. however. that the doctor was detected in his literary lar- cenies. One Sunday a grave old gentleman seated himself close to the pulpit and listened with profound at tention. The doctor had scarcely finished his third sentence before the old gentleman said loud enough to be heard by those near him, that's Sherlock"
 The doctor drowned. but went on. He had not proceeded much further when his grave auditor broke out with, that Tillotson." The doctor bit his lips ,and paused, but again went on.

THE BIGGEST TREES.
Australia Alleges that Its Eucalyptus Grows Higher That California's
 SeQuoia.

London Chronicle.
 America is in the habit of boastins of it's big trees, but Australia would probably be awarded first prize in a competition between the two conti- nents under this head. Has a church service ever been held in America in the hollow of a tree? That event re. gently took place in t5ippsland, the easterT province of Victoria, where the Duke of Cornwall has had some shoot ing. A giant eucalyptus ,or gum {: :ee,' had been cut through at a dis tance of twenty feet from the ground. The remaining part of the trunk was then hollowed out and roofed overhead A room twenty-five feet in breadth was thus formed. It was found capable of accommodating a congregation of fifty. But 1t is not to be permanently used as a church. It's owner intends converting 1t into a creamery.
 Tkls Is a very unusual specimen. The gum tree makes its rapid way skyward, and not toward the horizon. Tae record neigh. Is 4s0 feet. and such a tree would probably overlook any of mans constructions in the world, ex- cept the Pyramid of Cheops and the Eiffel Tower. It's topmost tuft would be five stories higher than the cross of St. Pauls the eucalyptus grows with a rapidity that Is amazing. A seed plant ed in Cannes has developed in ten years into a tree sixty feet high. It grows even faster in California, where it is among the most popular of tree on account of it's greedy absorption of water from low-lying, over moist soils.
 No tree ih the United States has reached the sky y-scraping" attitudes of the record eucalypti, but several of the sequoias of California exceed 400 feet in height, and have a girth of ninety feet at the base. There are only about 800 of these survivals of a past age, and many are over 5000 years old, They sprouted about the time that Troy was destroyed and. Salo- mons Temple was built, and were in the yellow sere of 'life"-I heard it thus quoted in the speech of Town Coun-

PROPOSALS NOT NECESSARY.
Soem Married Women Never Recsiv-

Soem Married Women Never Recsiv-
 ed One from Their Husbands. Chicago Chronicle.
 A party Of women were talking the other day-aItd women will talk some times, it would seem--and marriage proposals was the theme under discus sion. Some enc wanted to know whether the proposals in novels were anything like the proposals of real life. The young girls said they must be and the matrons said they were not. Two of the latter confessed they had never received proposals at all from their husbands. That shocked the girls. who imagined dreadful things about leap year proposals. But there was nothing so romantic as that.
 "I don't know when my husband first began to think of marrying me, or when I thought of marrying him." said matron No. 1. T had known him for such a long time that never seemed to have thought of anything else. We always seemed to have known that we should marry each other. He did ask my father. but he certainly never asked me-"
 My husband never proposed to me-" said matron No. 2. We simply knew we were to be married. There was nothing strange about 1t. It would have been strange if either of us had thought anything else. Other mepY We'll other men than the right ones make a proposal of marriage as they would any other proposal of less TO- mantle. kind Then there are pro- posals by letter. but any man who pro- poses, by letter when he can ask by word of mouth deserves to lose the trl- Tk tC "a fhsn0 fr AA But. then. if you cared for the man O, well, it makes all the difference in the world. ra But one of the happiest marriages I ever knew came about in a strange way and with what most girls would consider the least sentiment and even withoHt proper consideration for the conventions. knew both the men and the woman when I was young. He was a thorough good fellow. belonging to a good. but ordinary family. He was brilliant in a way, but he was a man to be liked and respected. She was as pretty a girl as I ever saw and a woman who has grown hand somer as she has grown older. The man had been in love with another girl, proposed to her and was refused. This my girl heard. Such things do get around, though no one ever tells.

 This remark also got out without being told. The young man heard it. took the girl at her word, asked her If she meant it; she said she did. and they were married and lived happily ever after, for have known them during all the lever after.'"

 Mental State.

The thumb IS a guide to knowledge of the mental condition of the owner. He who is in full possession of all his faculties makes good use of the thumb, but wherever there is a tendency to insanity. this generally useful and &C., tive member falls nut of work
 A physician in charge of a lunatic asylum states positively that if you see person whose thumb remains in- active-standing at right angles and taking no part in the act of writing, salutation or any other manual exer- cise-you may be sure that he has a diseased mind.
 He may talk intelligently and appear sane in every respect, but undoubtely a tinge of madness is lurking within his brain.
