On the third night away from the
company he dreamed Of being called
back to play once again for D'Oyly
Carte. he dreamed he saw the secNe-
tAry Of Carte call upon him in a great
hurry, rush his portable property into
a travelling bag and do the lightning
run act for the next train. So plain
and vivid was the dream that on
awakening in the morning at 8 O'Clock
he Jumped quickly out Of bed and
without considering how foolish it
might be began throwing things In his
aatchal. But when he had completed
his toilet he began wondering why he
had been acting so absurdly when
there came a knock at the door. On
opening it he saw D'Oyly Carts's SEC
rotary Just as in his dream, and he
was in a great hurry too. He cried out
to Mansfield:
"Can you pack up and reach the sta
ton in ten minutes to rejoin the COM

pointing to the bag. 'It Is all ready,
for l was expecting you"
The little man was a trtfie scared,
but Mansfield was bundled into a cab,
and they hurried to the station in a
way similar to his dream.-Kansas City

PanaI cods Of MexIeo.

Mexico's penal code is patterned aft
er that of the French. IncOmunicado,
often mentioned in criminal cases,
means solitary confinement without
power to communicate with any one.
When a man Is arrested on a serious
charge he is put in a cell for three days
incOmunicadO. At the end Of that time
he n given a JUDICIAL examination. 1t
is quite different from the American
procedure, but 1t must be said that

 "A most interesting study" a promI- uent government scientist recently re- marked. "ls that of what might be termed the foreign elements of the at mosphere. The earth's atmosphere contains an enormous quantity Of dust, and It is everywhere, in the country as well as Iu the towns
 "The reason why We do not see it constantly is that the particles do not reflect enough light to make an impress sion on the rctlua. A ray of bright sunlight in a dark room reveals in- uumcrablc particles, and yet the mil lions We see are but a small proportion of the whole, being the larger parJi- cIes.
 it Is not difficult to collect these particles for the purposes of study. Probably the most successful way Is that first used by Pasteur, who drew a stream of air through a tlAbe con- taining nItrated cotton. The cotton was then dissolved by treating it with ether, and the residue was washed and dried. The particles may be measured by means of a fine mtrrometer. late perfection of which enables measure meuts of as little as one scveuty-miI liuuth of an inch to be made
