Guides FROM the Alps.

1t is probably but another symptom
of the megalomania of the time, in
regulations as in other things, says the
London Globe, that even for noun
taineering in countries remote from
the Alps, Alpine guides are being Sc
lected, although they can certainly
have none of the local knowledge
which renders them all-valuable in
their own valleys. Thus, the Duke Of
the Abruzzi on his approaching ex-
petition, referred to in this column
some days ago, to reach the hitherto
untouched summit of Mount Ruwen-
zori. in Uganda, will be accompanied
by the guides Petigax, father and son.

terprise. Similarly, Mrs. F. B. Work
man, who contemplates an expedition
among the Western Himilayas during
the coming summer, has also engaged
Alpine guides and porters. Indian
Waganda are entirely excluded.

Submerged Roman Cities.

Late explorations of the Italian
coast near Pompeii have changed the
opinion of antiquarians. says the New
York Tribune. The submerged Roman
.uins along the coast used to be re-
.arded as foundation walls thrown out
or sea baths, but it was made clear
hat they are the remains of nobls
mansions, and that they point to the
ime when the land on which they
stood was far above the level of the
sea. The shore is, in fact, strewn with
he wreck of buried cities. Coast
Dads have vanished. ancient quarries
rave been flooded and the breakwa-
ers of the harbors of classical story
overed fathoms deep with water. A
reat submarine sea wall, with con-
rete piers II feet high, still protects
he fragments. But neither the frag-
ents nor the great sea wall have been
isible in the light OF day for 2,000

We kept 1t up all night, but he

FORGOT JURY VAS SHORT

Judge Moore of Augusta, Mass, was
telling his experience with jury
while he was trying cases in Kenne-
bee county some years ago. He APP
peared as counsel for a man who had
been a close friend of his for years,
and he decided that the Juror. because
OF past friendship, would stand by him
In the case on trial.
Finally the case went to the Jury.
For hours they fought and argued in
the jury room in an effort to agree
upon a verdict. They came in for in.
structions, and were again sent out
by the judge, who asked them to agree,
II such thing was possible. All
night the jury argued and wrangled,
and on the opening of court in the
morning reported disagreement and
We're dismissed.
Judge Moore hunted up his friend
on the jury and asked him why he
could not swing the men into line.

EQUAL TO THE CRISIS

An elderly man entered the third
car of an Erie train in Jersey City
one evening last week and selected a
seat in the center of the car. He car
ried with care a bag which looked as
if 1t might have contained fruit. De-
posting the bag carefully on the seat
beside him, he drew a newspaper from
his pocket, and soon became so en-.
crossed in reading that he was lost
to his surroundings. AS the starting
time of the train approached the car
rapidly filed up, until there was but
one seat left vacant. That was the
seat next to the old gentleman. A
nattily dressed young man, carrying
his overcoat on his arm, entered the
car, cast his eye hurriedly around,
spied the seat next to the old gentle
man and made a Decline for it.
All this time the old gentleman was
absorbed in his paper. He failed to
notice the approach of the young man,

LIE THAT PROLONGED LIFE

Some years ago Secretary olin told
of an attack of the yellow fever on
shorty" a comrade of his, which
occurred during the civil war.
Shorty was an incorruptible liar," "
said Col. Olin. HE conceived it his
first duty to fight hard for the main
tenance of the union, and his second
to lie hard for the maintenance of his
reputation. When the yellow fever
broke out Shorty was one of the first
to come down with it, and although
he fought hard against it he was soon
laid very low by this silent enemy
and one sad day the regimental sur
geon told the boys in his company
that it was only a question of hours
with poor Shorty.

COLORS LIKED IN CATTLE

At the shows and sales of pure bred
cattle which have just been held in
Scotland questions of color have been
coming under discussion as if they
never had had a serious reviewing
and arguments for and against GER
tain shades are pulled up every now
and then by what do the foreigners
say?" Galloway men can scarcely be
said to have a color question except
on special occasions when some one
with a fondness for what is not al
ways on the card wonders whether
the Southwestern cattle, like the
Aberdeen-Angus, are in danger of be-
coming too black. However, experts
say that if Galloway men as a body
were as wise as a select few, they
would persistently aim at the preser-
walton of that soft touch of brown in
the hair which bygone race of breed
