A Mystined Crow.

During a piazza game of pingpong
m of the balls was sent quite a dis
lance out over the lawn, where a crow
seized it and bore it off in triumph, ev-
identity thinking 1t was an egg. After
much pecking, from all of which the
frolicsome little ball bounced away UNI
broken, the crow had an excited con-
sultation with several of his fellows
and then deliberately carried the ball
to the top Of a high tree and let 1t drop.
Again the assembly Of black feathered
experimenters gathered around in
amazement. Was there ever such a re-
markable egg? 1t had fallen from a
height that played havoc with their
eggs and their little ones as well and
yet survived intact! Then one after
another tramped IN it. cawing loudly
all the while.
At last, in sheer exhaustion and dis
gust, they all gave it up. flew to the
top of-their favorite tree, and. still
cawing loudly, watched one of the
pingpong players come out from the
house and carry off this invincible egg
that had bafiied their boldest attacks.

A rough target il drawn and pinned
at a convenient height upon the wall,
and n Of the company is called in.
He is placed about five feet from the
target and is told to aim with his fore
finger for tile bullseye. When he is
sure he is pointing in the right direc-
ton he is blindfolded by one confeder-
ate, while the other stands close to the
target. He is told to walk toward 1t
and see II with his outstretched fore
finger he can touch the Alllseye.
The confederate by the target slight
" opens his mouth and follows the di-
rection of the pointing finger until the
b~lindfolded victim finds it caught firm
", but not roughly, between two rows
Of teeth.
Then, as he is .'.inftiated," he stays
with the confederates while one by

trap.

Mr.. NOBODY.

I know a funny little man.
AS quiet as a louise
Who does the mischief that is done
In everybody's house!
There's no n ever sees his face,
And yet we all agree
That every plate we break was cracked
By Mr.. Nobody.
IT'S ne who always tears our books.
Who leaves the door ajar;s
He pulls the buttons from our shirts
And scatters pins afar.
That ~squeaking door will always squeak
For. prithee, don't you see
We leave the oiling to be done
BY Mr.. Nobody.
He puts damp wood upon the fire
That kettles cannot boil;
His are the feet that bring in mud
And all the carpets soil.
The papers always are mislaid;
Who had them asst but he?
There's no ore losses them about
But Mr.. Nobody.
The finger marks upon the door
BY none of us are made;
We never leave the blinds Enclosed,
To let the curtains fade.
The ink we never spill. the boots
That lying round you see
Are not CUR boots: they all belong
To Mr.. Nobody.

SERIOUS RlorlNe IN FRANCE
Troopers Ride Down the Mob and Use
Their Swords.

Troopers Ride Down the Mob and Use
Their Swords.
Paris, Aug. 6.-The morning papers
report serious rioting in progress at
L'Orient, on the coast of Brittany,
where labor troubles have been brew
ing for the past several days. Last
night the rioters assembled in the
palace Alsace Lorraine and attacked
the military club over the grand cafe.
They also stoned and broke shop win
dows. The military was called out,
but the rioters put out strong guards
and erected barricades. The cavalry
charged, the troopers losing their
tempers and riding down the mob,
striking men with the fiat of their
swords. 1t seems probable that the
rioting will continue throughout the
night. The crowds show no signs of
dispersal. At midnight they were
marching to attack the prefecture.

EMMEr's GRAVE OPENED.
Remains May Not Be Those of the
Irish Patriot.

Dublin, Aug. 6.-At the instigation
of DR.. Robert Emmett of New York, an
examination vas made yesterday of
the grave supposed to be that of the
patriot Emmett. A skeleton was
found. said to be that of a man six
feet high, whereas Emmett was only
five feet even inches. A curious cir
cumstance in connection with the ex-
animation was that the skull, instead
OF lying prone attached to the trunk,
was found lying in an upright posi-
ton, which, as Emmett was beheaded,
may strengthen the theory that the
remains were his. But the matter is
still regarded as doubtful.

Babykin. and MS Friend.

Babykins had a little friend that used
to come to visit him once a week. 1t
was the day of the week when the
nursery was swept. Nursie would put
the glass from the bureau down upon
the floor while she was busting and
putting things away, and then it was
that this other little Babykins came.
1t was a dear little Babykins that
had curly hair waving over its head.
Babykins would creep up close to the
glass, but he could touch the lit
tie visitor.
One day Babykins thought he would
creep around behind the glass and have
a romp with the dear Babykins who
lived there. oh, he was so disappoint-
ed! What do you suppose was there?
Nothing at all but the back of the
glass! Babykins made haste to creep
back again to the front of the glass,
and there was the visitor.
Babykins played With him until
nurste came and took the glass away.
Then Babykins' little friend went, too.
for another week.-Babyland.
