GREAT LISBON EARTHQUAKE.

In the early morning of All Saints
day November 1st, all Lisbon was
abroad. The morning was hot and still
and yelled in a film of yellow haze in
which the color OF city and sky and
river ran riot. Behind the Seven Hills
on which the town was built rose high
er hills. heaving softly into green
swells, and pillows, a deeper back
ground for white-walled mopasteries
and a confusion of red-tiled roofs and
TURQUOISE towers and minarets and the
yellow outer walls Tapped by the blue
river. In the streets people hurried in
and out among the booths and shops,
gathering into momentary groups to
discuss the absence OF rain, the fact
that the wells of the country had sud
denly gone dry, the coming bull night,
the latest scandal perpetrated by arm
ed and hooded noblemen rowing after
dark. The yellow glare beat on lofty
houses covered with Dutch tiles done
in blue and white, highly glazed and
wrought into scenes from Bible tales;
on the small shrines TO saints or the
Madonna at every corner; and threw
out into sharp contrast the somber
green of citr0n and lemon trees. The
, procession of the Viaticum swung past,
through black lanes of kneeling people,
with the Host borne aloft by barefoot
ed men OF rank under a canopy that
blazed with gold and jewels. White
clad Dominican friars threaded through
the crowd, with austere faces and
dark-clouded eyes; Negro fruit vendors
shouted their wares above the babel
of Songs and laughter, the chanting of
psalms and drowning prayers Rosy
monks. black cowled, jostled among the
women. with coarse robes trailing
about fat white ankles. Slim figures
discreetly shrouded slipped through the
throng. conveyed by alert duennas.
English and Dutch talked business at

J Above the hum and swarm Of the town
/ the church bells pealed vibrant, mas

/ low notes pulsing over the blue river
and drifting out among the hills. And
at the tenth hour the ground quivered
as though to the rumble of a heavily
! loaded wagon IN the streets.
Two minutes later, with a sudden
ripping crash as Of a lightning bolt
struck home, the earth heaved like an
animal in pain. In an instant the air
(, was logged with binding dust, through
which could be seen the first sickening
Iurch of buildings topping to their
fail; the wide downward sweep OF up
rooted trees. In all directions were
flying figures that reeled to the earth s

WHBTLED SOLO IN CHURCH.

A whistling solo is the latest thing
in the line of music TO be introduced
into divine service at a New York
church. At the services in the Lexing-

worshippers were entertained by the
rendering of Schumann's "Traumerei"
by Miss Louise Truax, a whistler Miss
Truax whistled during the collection.
After the services she was induced TO

A HYMN TO THE SEA.

By Amelie Rives.
My heart, o Sea. my heart too, hath
its tides,
It's moods of rage. it's Gains. its
storms again;
Its ice-bound regions where no life
abides.
Its snow fields where a rose would
seem a stain;
It's caverns deep, more murmurous
musical
Than shells that in their dreaming
sing of thee;
It's wrecks majestic and its towers tall
OF moon-white castles built for
ecstasy.
But turned by time to echoing tombs
Where many drowned nope doth ne

Iso. these are mine, too; but that jubi-
liant scorn.
That blithe disdain of ever-changing
fate.
Which thou by very mutability
Doth manifest to all-that would 1 learn
of thee!
Before thine altar of implacable rock.
O'erhung with foam-fower garlands
iridescent.
And Jared ever by the dangerous
shock

OF young Sciences forehead-gem doth

AS in a shaken glass of chrysolite,
Upon the iove-tossed sarmor of thy
breast:
There. while long, singing lines OF
breakers white.
Like rows of vestal virgins seen afar,
Come trooping up thy dark sonorous

And Evening offers up her loveliest
star:
There will I prefer thee my vanished
smiles,
Ny joys forsworn. my sorrows yet

by bacteria 1t is concluded that the
impurities of the water-even such
poisons as strychnine and curare-are
readily absorbed and stored away by
the mollusks, but that the storing Is
only temporary. for mo1lusks in foul
water are not at all times poisonous.
Whether the poisons are made harm
less or are returned to the water I'M

JAvArs THEORY OF A SIXTH SENSE.

DR.. laval, of the French Academy OF
Medicine, who is sightless. denies that
nature compensates blindness by in
creased sensibility OF touch and hear

son is blind an extra development takes
place in sixth sense. which is latent
in all persons. This sense. which has
been called the sense Of obstacles, acts
by the perception Of certain warm and
indefinite vibrations. The seat Of the
sense is believed TO be placed in the
