THE STILL VOICE.

Since virtue is it's own reward, With voices sweet and charming, Saying to us as from the Lord, "Now naught can be your harming:" Shall not that voice now lead you? Shall not its joy now feed you? These are angel ministrations Quite direct as from the throne A personal visitation, Of the infinite, unknown, : Who comes in quietness to all, Giving to each special call. Pray tell, what more does this world need,
 Aside from what it ever has, Since it can daily, hourly heed, The sweetest voice that ever was? The voice that calls each day and
 hour,
 And calls with patient, loving
 power. Sure, there'll be no better preacher, Sure there will be no better thought Than the teaching of this Teacher, Which is to us, each moment brought; And like the mama long ago, It, too, will feed us as we go.

ORIGIN OF THE. WALTZ.

Religious Ceremony
OF all the millions who waltz who
[ can tell how this famous dance orig
ina ed z is a curious one. It
is wrongly supposed that France re-
celved the waltz from Germany toward
the close of the eighteenth century.
The waltz did not emanate in Its pres
eflt form from the brain of q dancing
master. Long before 1880. the time it
is first mentioned under this name. 1t
was displayed on the village green's.
Inc waltz was first danced in the,
church and serves to trace the union
between ancient civilization and that
of the middle ages.
- " me sacred dsnee OF the pagarrs is
preserved to a certain extent in Chris
tan rites 1t is transformed to a series
of revolutions made to the sound of the
tambourne. ST. Isatiore, archbishop
OF Seville. born about A. D, $50. was
fntrusted by the co.,.''l of Toledo with
the revision OF the et1,.gy as it was
then practiced in the Roman church, i'm
which there was 81 tambourine dance.
The council decided to adopt the Isa-
dorian liturgy in all Spain. and it diff
Tered bat little from that used in other
countries at that time
This rite, celebrated before the eighth
century, when the Moors first invaded
Spain. was still celebrated by the Chris
tians in the seven churches of Toledo.
which the Moors abandoned after their
rapture of the city and it was after
that time called the Moorish rife This
was known and employed in Provence
and Italy. The tambourine In use in this
religious dance was called by st. Isa-
dore ''moite de symphonic" and evil

which in the ancient sacred dances ac-

As the religious dance of the middle
ages Is allied to the ancient sacred
dance so the waltz Is an evolution Of
this religious dance. having passed
through many changes before arriving
in its present form In the eleventh.
century when the Gregorian rite sup
planted the Moorish rite. the dance dis
appeared from the church. 1t appeared
very quickly in society under the name
of "caro,e,' a word derived from the

THE CHAMELEON.
some of the Peculiaritie. of This
Very aueer Animal.

ouhC III lnt Fecu11aF1t1HA of ThfN
Very Queer Animal.
A most remarkable creature is the
chameleon. TO all appearances the
nervous centers in one lateral half of
this animal work Independently of
those i'll the other, and, it has two later
al centers of perception sensation and
motion besides the common one In
which must reside the faculty of CON
eentratfon. The eyes move independ
entity OF one another and convey sepa-
rate impressions to their respective
centers fperception. The consequence
Is that when the animal is agitated its.
movements resemble those of two ami
mails or rather perhaps two halves Of
animals glued together. Each half
wishes to go its own way. and there is
no concordance of action
Therefore the chameleon is the only
four legged vertebrate that is unable
to swim. 1t becomes so frightened
when dropped into water that all facul-
ty of concentration is lost and the crea-
ture tumbles about as il in a state OF
intoxication. When chameleon is I'M
disturbed every Mpulse to motion is
referred to the proper tribunal, and the
whole organism acts in accordance
with its DEGREES. The eye. for example.
that receives the strongest impression
propagates it to the common center.
which then prevails upon the other eye
TO follow that impression and direct
Its gaze toward the same object.
Moreover. the chameleon may be fast
asleep on one side and wide awake on
the other. Cautiously approached at
night with candle so as not to awak-
en- the whole animal at once, the eye
turned toward the light will open, be-

rRAcEnY An rHE AcAnEMY.

Few people knew that q tragedy had
been enacted within the Naval Aoed-
envy enclosure Sunday night. Indeed
the Naval Academy authorities them
selves knew nothing of IL until within
a few hours before the curtain was
rung down on the last act and the
mortal j. IL. Branch, a Midshipman
of the second class. passed away.
Death has claimed another from the
ranks of Midshipmen, and death came
In most tragic form. Probably it
will never be known just chow it
happened.
Few Midshipmen die OF natural
causes at the Naval Academy Even
tue epidemic of diphtheria recently
was not fatal in single case. The
deaths among the Midshipmen are in
nearly every case the result of "acci-
dent" by drowning. or from some
other than natrual cause. The death
rate is very low in comparison to the
vast number in the brigade. This
makes it all the harder, therefore,
that death should have come to Mid.
shipman Branch in such tragic man
ner.
Entirely separate aud distinct from
any rules or regulations of the Aoad-
envy authorities, the Midshipmen have
little code of ethics, or "honor" or
whatever it may be called of their
own. 1t is understood that this code
permits an underclassman to "get
even" with an upperolassman. and,
although little is known officially of
the cause of Branoh's death, the
code" is said TO have figured in it.
Certain it is. however, that two Mid
shipmen met in fstic combat to settle
difficulties and that one of them is
dead. The merriment of the past
week has been turned into mourning
by the untimely end of Midshipman
Branch. The affair win be investi-
gated. but the investigation matters
little when weighed in the balance
with human life beyond recall,

=. EUGENE wATHEN.

IL Is with deep sorrow we chronicle
the death of our Brother in journal
ism and our friend, f. Eugene Wathen
whose sudden death occurred shortly
after half past seven O'Clock last night
at Hotel Maryland. Without warming
and while talking with his wife and
her friends he was stricken and the
relentless hand of death claimed him
for its own.
Eugene Wathen, as everybody knew
him. was sincere friend. large
hearted man, good citizen and an
upright gentleman. The kindliest feel
ing existed between him aud the Cap
ital staff, and the two papers exchanged
courtesies frequently. There was moth
ing mean or narrow in his nature.
He scorned petty things in business as
well as all other relations in life
He did his duty as be believed it to be
his duty and he upheld those princi-
pies which he believed to be right and
just principles. His death has robbed
Annapolis Of a good citizen and a
man interested in the towns welfare
In his death the school teachers of
this county have lost a good friend.
For ten years he has been school ex-
aminer and has always manifested a
fatherly interest in the teachers over
whom he had jurisdiction. All who
had business or friendly relations with
him respected and honored him, and
will deeply mourn his loss. The shock
of his sudden death has shrouded he
city in gloom, following so soon. as it
did, the tragic death of Midshipman
Branch. Truly life, is but deaths
continual postponement and we all
live with Damoclese sword hanging
over our heads. With four sudden
deaths in less than two weeks. the
vital question is "who will be the
next.
