Muci1nge Betrayed Him.

Some time ago a registered package
sent from the New York postoffice,
containing large sum of money, was
received at its destination apparently
intact, but on being opened was found
to contain nothing but waste paper.
Suspicion could not be directed to any
one clerk of the many who had handled
it. The inspector had often noticed
that the glue used at each postofflce
had an odor distinguishable from that
of any other. He investigated along
this line and was finally rewarded
when in an office near the destination
of the package he discovered an iden-
tity of smell between the registered
package and Il gluepot on the counter.
He caused Il watch to be set upon tie
clerks in the office in the usual way
and finally caught his man spending a
portion of his i'll gotten gains.

Switched the Train.

A certain judge is much given to
meditating upon his work while walk
ing along the street, and his acquaint-
ances and friends recognize his air of
abstraction, pass him by with a friend
ly nod and never mind if he does not
appear to notice the salutation. A lit
tie colored newsboy not familiar with
this popularity of the judge accosted
him one day with persistent appeals:
Buy the mornin' news boss. Have
a paper. boss"
The judge waved the tiny mite of hu-
manity aside and went on abstracted-
ly, his mind engrossed with the case
that was to come up that day in the
court to which he was on the way.
The dusky newsboy was not easily
evaded. and he kept pace with the
judge, shouting his paper cry at fire.

stopped and, grabbing his youthful tor
mentor by the shoulder. he said in his
most severe manner:

o'CoNNELL's GOODNESS.
Story of the Irish Liberator and .
Falling Floor,

A story of the Irish Liberator and a
Falling Floor.
Daniel O'Connell was once address
Ing an enormous meeting in Kings
town, and the crowd was so large that
fear was felt for the safety of the
building. AS he was about to speak q
gentleman ascended the platform and
said, trembling with fear: "Liberator,
the lloor is giving way! The beams are
cracking. and we shall all fall through
In II few minutes" 1t is not given to
many men to live through such mo-
ments as O'Connell lived through as he
rose to address the meeting nor to pre-
serve such magnificent courage In the
face of great peril. Warning the man
to keep quiet, the liberator said, 81 find
this room too small to contain the num-
. ber who desire to come in, so we must
therefore leave it and hold the meeting
outside" A few rose to leave, but the
hall was still packed, and then O'Con-
nell said: Then l will tell you the
truth. You are Irishmen and therefore
brave men. The floor is giving way,
and we must leave this room at once.
If there. Is a panic and rush to the
door, we shall all be precipitated into
the room below, but If you obey my
orders we shall be safe. Let the dozen
men nearest the door go quietly out,
then the next dozen, and so on until all
have gone | shall be the last to leave"
The Irishmen followed the advice, the
hall was quickly cleared, and as OCon-
beams gave way.-OXford Chronicle.

Some British Lavmaking.

1t may surprise some folks to learn
that plenty of British laws have been
drawn up so cnrelessly and written in
such muddled language that they are
quite useless for their intended pur-
pose.
One of the acts passed in George
HIS reign, for instance, states that
the proceeds Of penalties were to be
given half to the informer and half to
the poor of the parish. The absurdity
lies in the fact that the only penalty
which could be inflicted was one Of
transportation for fourteen years.
In 1865 well known Q. @. created
a lot of amusement by proposing an
amendment worded as follows: EVERY
dog found trespassing on inclosed land
unaccompanied by the registered own
er of such dog or other person, who
shall on being asked for his true name
and address may be then and there
destroyed by such o"cupier or by his
orders" This gem of meaninglessness
was, however, not passed.-London Tit

Lighthouse without n Light,

The most extraordinary of all British
lighthouses is to be found on Arnish
rock, Stornoway bay-a rock which is
separated from the island of Lewis by
a channel over 500 feet wide. On this
rock a conical beacon is erected, and
on its summit lantern is fixed, from
which, night after night, shines a light
which is seen by the fishermen far and
wide. The way in which this light
house is Illuminated is this: On the
island of Lewis is a lighthouse, and
from window in the tower a stream
of light is projected on to a mirror
in the lantern ON the summit Of Arnish
rock. The consequence is that, to all
intents and purposes, a lighthouse ex-
lists which has neither lantern nor
lighthouse keeper.

ART AND NATURE.
The Changes Wrought by Force OF
MethOdicaI DeyeIOumeut

MethOdical Development.
There are really very few things in
use in the world today which have not
been materially changed by the forces
of methodical development. Civilized
men and women themselves are the
best examples of this all pervading in
fiuence. The beasts of burden and the
creatures which supply the world with
animal food are remotely different
from what they were in the beginning.
The work Of breeding and training has
added beauty and usefulness to the
birds of the air and the beasts Of the
feld, and the same upward tendency is
noted in these latter days in the flow
ers which gladden. life with their love
Gness and which admonish man per.
petually of his frailty. Pleasant it is
to know that what may be called the
sophistication of flowers has robbed
them of not a whit of their native
charm. There is in the sensuous odor
of the American Beauty the magic to
revive in any mind attuned to the heart
Of nature sweet memories of tangled
vines and wild roses, creeping and
blooming along country roads. The
scent of the rich and full carnation will
call up In q moment tender recollec-
tions of borders Of spicy little pinks
tended by loving hands that have been
folded for years in dreamless repose.
In the regal chrysanthemum is seen
the amazing product of brave little as
tiers which came to embellish the door
yard with the first chill of autumn and
after all of the summer blooms had
perished.-Kansas City Star.

Speed of Racing Camels.

The racing camel is very carefully bred
and valuable prizes are offered by a
racing society at Biskra for the fleetest
racer, says Pearson's Magazine. Ihave
seen the start of a race and it remind
ed me, in a faroff sort Of way, of a
horse race. The camels were all ar
ranged in line and they shifted the air
in their anxiety to be off. A flag was
waved and they set off at a terrible
pace, as if they were only racing for
short distance. They kept together
until they were almost out of sight
Then they seemed to settle down to
their habitual pace and the race pro-
ceeded with long intervals between
the competitors. have also seen the
finish of a camel race, and it reminded
me Of the first motor car promenade
between London and Brighton. The
camels were certainly not so broken
down and bedraggled, but they came
IN at intervals Of several hours and
great patience was necessary to watch
them arrive.

The Nose.

Nothing is more rare than q really
perfect nose-that is, one which unites
harmony of form, correctness of pro-
portion and proper affinity with the
other features.
The following are, according to the
rules Of art, the conditions requisite
to the beauty of this organ:
The nose should have the same
length as the forehead and have q
slight depression at its root From its
root to its extremity it should follow a
perfectly straight line and come exact
ly over the center Of the upper lip. The
bridge of the nose, parallel on both
sides. should be little wider in the
center. The tip should be neither too
thin nor too fleshy, and its lower out
line neither narrow nor too wide. The
lobes must be gracefully defined by a
slight depression. Seen sideways, the
lower part of the nose will have but q
third of its total length.

His One Regret.

A fare was being ratified through a
Dublin suburb on a rickety jaunting
car drawn by no less rickety horse.
Having proceeded some distance, the
horse, owing to apparent old age and
sheer exhaustion, fell, never to rise
again. The fare was very profuse in
his sympathies toward the driver, who,
however, appeared to take the whole
thing very coolly and explained:
''It's just like this with me, your hon.
or. I don't regret the old brute a bit.
He was bad from the start. But, some
how or other, can't help thinking of
the beautiful feed of oats 1 gave him
this morning.

lONDON'S LORD MAYOR.
HIS Power as Well as the Area Il
Rules Is Limited.

HIS Power as Well as the Area He
Rules Is Limited.
The lord mayor of London is not the
all powerful official he is thought to be
on the continent. He is not the mayor
Of all London, but only of the city of
London, and the City is but frae-
ton of the whole. Greater London has,
roughly, population of '6,00G, 900, but
in the $50 acres that comprise the City
there is a resident population at night
of only $4,000 and by day of little over
100000. And even within this area the
powers Of the lord mayor and of tho
twentysiX aldermen and the two hun
dred odd common councillors are by no
means autocratie.
Much of what used to lie within his
and their province has been taken over
by the London county council. In fact
the average Londoner never thinks OF
the lord mayor as an edict making,
law giving official He stands altogeth-
er apart in the popular mind from ques-
tions of rates and assessments, schools
and police. Very few people could say
NAAil iSS5lSill1NC 1uACl1OuS, IL any, uH
fulfills. They may have heard that he
is the chief magistrate of the courts,
but beyond that their knowledge of his
precise duties does not stray. 1t is the
social and decorative side of his posi-
ton that impresses the public The
lord mayor is never without his badge
and rarely without his robes and chains
Of office. He rides abroad in magnif-
icently gilded coach, with powdered
coachmen and footmen in cooked hats
and silk knee breeches, sending a CLEAN
Of gold through the dirty drab. of Lon
don.
The lord mayors show on Nov 8 is
one of England's few annual pageants
and, uncouth as it is, has warm place
in the hearts of the populace, and, be-
sides all this, he has some rights and
provileges of 400 years standing. No
troops may pass the City boundaries
without his leave. The sovereign him
self has to ask permission to enter the
city walls, just as he has to ask for
permission to enter the house of COM
mons.-Harper's Weekly.

A MYSTIC Volume.

A good story is told of the Russian
police, who are very careful lest any
literature Of an atheistic character
shall fall into the hands of the peas
ants.
a peasant in the province of Minsk
went to publishers shop and asked
for Bible. Unwittingly the shopman
gave him an algebra primer.
On opening the book when he reach
ed home, the peasant was surprised to
find it full of mystic signs and hero
glyphics. The peasant showed it to a
policeman, who felt convinced that the
signs were of an extremely freethink-
ing character" and so arrested the
owner.
At the trial the peasant was dis
charged, and the policeman, instead of
being rewarded for his religious zeal,
was reprimanded.
