a MercifuI JUDGE. ;

To be sentenced to Imprisonment
for the term Of ones natural life is
hard enough, but to be consigned to
a dungeon cell for a couple Of thou
sand years is indeed narrowing. Yet
foreign judges not infrequently i'm
pose sentences Of several centuries
without it being considered any
thing remarkable.
A young man was arrested in Vi
emma couple Of years ago who upon
his own showing should have been
sentenced to $500 years imprison-
ment. A total of 400 charges was
brought against him, and he was
convicted and sentenced on all Of
them. But the judge was a merci-
ful man, and III passing sentence he
threw off thousand years in con-
sideration Of the mans youth.

While DIR. Seward Webb was
travelling in the far~west his friends
in Vermont had him in mind for the
nomination for governor. It is while
he was coprting his wife "a daughter
of William III. Vanderbilu) that DR..
Webb began his annual visits to the
Green Mountain state. To be near
ner he paid a call upon the late Will
liam M. Evarts, says the Philadelphia
Press, who owned fine farm in
Vermont.
Mr.. Webb arrived at the ex-senat-
or's house about noon On very hot
day. Luncheon was just served in
the dining room, the table placed al
most underneath a large old fashion
ed fireplace. Among other things
on the board was a cold nam, stuck
lover with spices. which Mr.. Evart

hear of the 49, Magazine"
"Oh, yes, replied DR.. Webb. IT

have just started over in Brooklyn"
"Well. DOCTOR" continued Mr..
Evarts. "that magazine has written
me to send them something choice

Sergt. Harry of the Washington
police was an usher at the white

there was an eclipse of the moon, I
was standing near the President and
Mrs. Cleveland, who were looking at
the eclipse and admiring it.
81 don t believe Olney knows abont
it, said Mr.. Cleveland, and he will
be sorry to miss it. Harry, go tele-
phone Olney to look at the moon.

chef, or butler, or something French,
answered.
'sThe President sends word to Mr..

''The moon, repeated.

.sonyenir Collecting ;.

The carrying off of any small port
able article from ones friends houses
or from hotels is reaching such pro-
portions, under the name of souvenir
collecting, that soon chairs and
tables and other pieces of heavy
furniture will be the only things left
untouched. Many women, so it
seems, think nothing of bearing
away a spoon, liquor glass or even a
sugar basin to add to their collection
which are triumphantly shown to
their friends in cabinets especially
made for this purpose. London

TaiIless Cats.

Conditions other than those of
mere breeding seem to have much
influence on the development Of
physical character in cats. In one
authenticated case a tabby which
had lost her tail by having that ap-
pendage run over gave birth in her
next litter to three stump tailed kit
tens out Of seven. The Manx cat is
not the only tailless variety. In the
Crimea is found another kind of cat
which has no tail. The domesti-
Gated Malay cat has tail that is
only about one-half the usual length,
and very often it is tied by nature
in sort of knot which cannot be

WHAT DELAYED THE FIRING.
A Conplacent Mule and Driver Not 1n-
 terested in the Artillery Salute.

A Complacent Mule and Driver Not In- terested in the Artillery Salute. T witnessed an incident last Satur- day that gave every indication of re- sulting traglcally, that was certainly dramatic, and at the same time ex- tremely amusing" said a man who is interested in things military. Tn con- nection with the ceremonies attending the unveiling of the Rochambeau statue the 4th Battery of Field Artillery was assigned to fire a salute. The battery took station on the stretch of ground just north of the Washington monu- ment. It had been arranged that the time ball on the State Department building would be dropped as a signal for the firing to begin. I strolled down to see the battery at work.
 Just as the black ball began its descent of the flagstaff an elderly col ored individual, directing the move ments of a mule attached to an ash cart, appeared on the scene in front of the face of the battery so to speak The commanding officer was about to order "fire!" when he noticed the mule and cart. For the time being military dis
 
 members of the battery began to ges- ticulate widely and to shout warningly to the driver. He paid no heed to the soldiers, but placidly proceeded toward the battery. The commanding officer waited till the vehicle had just cleared the front of one of the guns and then gave the order.
 The spectators closed their eyes, for everybody expected the result to be a run away and general muss-up to say the least. The surmise proved incor- rect. The mule did not even blink an eye, although the gun was discharged within six feet of the animal. The queer turnout continued on it's way, the driv- CT deliberately heading down the lane formed by the double column of field pieces. No one made a move to stop the mule and cart and both the driver and the motive power remained appar- ently oblivious to the firing of the sa- lute. Prom the Washington Evening Star.

DoGWOOD TREES SIGNAL,

Every lover of good saltwater fishing is now keeping his eye on the dogwood
 tree. So is every blackfish from his secluded abiding place among subma- rne reefs. When the dogWood begins to put out little whitish green buds the blackfish fisherman, who is quite dis tinct from any other species of fisher man, gets out his tackle, fixes up his lines, pulls out his old clothes and makes arrangements for boat and bait. Simultaneously the backfish pokes his nose out from between the rocks, takes a long breath of green water. and be- gins to feel that the spring has come and that he is developing an appetite. But he knows that he must fast until the dogwood signals.
 One fine morning the fisherman 9Wakes to find a mantle of white glory over all the dogwood thickets, and he drops business, engagements, duties, meetings and everything of lesser i'm portance and loaded with tackle and luncheon, makes for salt water just in time to connect, with the blackflsh, who are capering and darting to and fro out in the open water fairly crazy with inn patience for some one to drop some bait in heir direction. For the black fish has seen the dogwoods white flag, too, and from Cape Cod to Sandy Hook has obeyed the signal and come forth with open mouth to spend the summer in stealing bait and getting caught, &C., cordng as his luck may be. Just what connection there is between the dog wood tree and the blackfish fisherman has not been explained yet, but they say the fish understands it, and maybe the tree understands it, but, anyway, no blackfish angler would dare imperil his luck for the season hv going hlackfish- ing before the dogwood fiaunts his flag.

rHr sormHERN HEArHEN.

The Virginia Constitutional Conven- tion is now charged not only with violating solemn political pledges, but 'also with hypocrisy and sancti- moniousness" in invoking the Almighty to bless it work. Of course, this indict- ment comes from Massachusetts. That lis the one State in the Union whose people attempt not only to regulate the politics of other States, but to lead them in more sacred matters as well. The Virginians insolenly and pre- sumptuously appealed to Providence to bIes their deliberations. The Spring field Republican rebukes them with bit ter irony for daring to invoke the Dl- vine favor. Its no new trick" says our contemporary, ito plaster broken pledges with ereacle cf the Divine bless ing. But it is something new to incor- porate an invocation to God and brok- en pledge into a single paragraph or the Constitution of a Christian people.
 The Virginians ought to have known that no prayer which ascends to heaven is favorably considered unless 1t bears the 70. K" of Massachusetts. They should have applied to Boston for per- IIIl5SiDU lO put dH illNOGdllOll Ic NtiS Deity in their Constitution. No invoca- tion without the Boston stamp availeth anything, Ever since the colonization of America began Massachusetts has exceIled in prayer making. There is no matter of business, politics or morals upon which our good Puritan brethren have not undertaken to advise Provi- tlence. Tt was a godly Newport eld- er,' writes John R. Spears in his His tory of the Slave Trade, "who always returned thanks on the Sunday follow ing the arrival of slave in the harbor of Newport that an overruling Provi- dence had been pleased to bring to this land of freedom another cargo of be- nighted heather to enjoy the blessings of a Gospel dispensation." If South ern planter who bought slaves had made such prayer he would have been denounced as a disgusting hypocrite. the New Englanders believe that Providence never questions the propriety of anything that is done in their favored section. Hereafter the people living south of the Mason and Dixon line who have the presumption to invoke the favor of Providence should send their prayers to New Eng land for transmission to the Heavenly throne.--Baltimore Sun.

no official confirmation of this report,
from private sources in this city 1t Is
learned that the Adams is to come here

probable that she viii be stationed here
