A Joyful Christmas.

Blow ev'ry horn at early morn
And beat the noisy drum,
And let us make the echos wake
For Christmas day has come.
Let JOY bells ring like everything
And all the world be gay.
And let us shout the gladness out
On joyful Christmas day.
Let sorrow go and Yuieude flow
The King our tribute pay;
In music sweet his praise repeat
This is his natal day.

The Smell of the Dawn,

or all hours of the day there is none
like the early morning for downright
good odors-the morning before eat
ing. Fresh from sleep and unclOgged
with food mans senses cut like
knives. The whole world comes in
upon him. A still morning Is best, for
the mists and the moisture seem to re-
tain the odors which they have dis
titled through the night. Upon a
breezy morning one is likely to get n
single predominant odor, as Of clover
when the wind blows across bayfield,
or Of apple blossoms when the wind
comes through the orchard, but upon a
perfectly still morning 1t is wonderful
how the odors arrange themselves In
upright strata, so that one walking
passes through them as from room to

THE NEGRITOS.
Odd Marriage Ceremony Of These
Barbarous Little People.

Belonging as they do to the lowest
type Of civilization as yet discovered
the Negritos Of Malaysia and their
ways are well worth studying. Simple.
primitive, barbaroEs little people, their
customs are those Of prehistoric man.
They have no fixed home or settle
ments, but are wanderers over their
mountainous islands, sleeping under a
banana leaf, living on herbs and ber-
ries and game.
Their marriage ceremony Is unique
survival Of early life. The sultor and
few companions dance about the
shelter Of the desired girl. There is
curious resemblance between the
dances Of the prospective bridegroom
and those Of many Of the game birds
of our woodland. Finally the girl, ac-
companied by her mother. starts to-
ward the dwelling of the young men.
They frequently stop, squatting in the
trail while the ardent suitor and his
companions continue their entreating
and bewitching dances, winding round
and round the girl. Presents are gen.
orally demanded and must be given
before the reluctant bride will pro-
ceed. Finally the women arrive near
a steep bamboo platform. A wild
shout pierces the air, and the bride
groom, like a frenzied animal, tears
through the Negrltos assembled at the
base Of the platform, snatches the
bride in his arms and flies up the in
cline with his mate, where they sit
during the wedding feast.-New York

but when he was halfway up he called

"Hculd on a minnit, Pat, till l spit

Naturally Pat descended again little
too rapidly for comfort. When Mike
realized his blunder, he ran to the well
and called down:

FOUGHT IN A FOG.
A Duel In Which Neither Principal
Could See the Other.


The most laughable duel ever fought
In France was that which took place
In November, 1878, at Plessls-Piquet
between Messrs. Gambetta and De
Fourtou.
Some heated words had passed be-
tween the two distinguished gentlemen
In the chamber of deputies, for which.

ing could atone except a duel. The
men met therefore on the field at
tended by their seconds and the sur.
geons.
A look over the field was enough to
convince any one present that there
would be no occasion for the doctors
services. A thick November fog hung
over the scene-so thick, indeed, that
one could hardly see his hand before
his face. The arrangements for the
duel required that 1t should be fought
ut thirty-five PAGES.
Nor was the fog the only circum-
stance that tended to place the COM
batants out of sight of each other. On
the way to the field M. de Fourtou Is
reported to have said:
IN. Gambetta has but one eye, and
I am shortsighted, so the game will
be about even."
1t was, Of course, rendered still more
seven" by the fog. Neither man could
see the other, and the sole danger was
to the seconds and the doctors.
Almost miraculously the two bullets
that were exchanged missed the per-
sons In attendance. Everybody's hon

went home. Gambetta said that the
affair was as near to being a skirmish

Few persons, probably, other than
those engaged In the pursuit of sci

presents an interest Of its own to the
zoologist and the geologist shared by
no other part of the ocean at the pres

Throughout the greater part of the
ocean the bottom Ia the dwelling place
OF number of creatures whose busi-
ness 1t Is to consume the bodies of the
members Of the surface fauna which
after death sink to the bottom. In the
Black sea, however, says the Field, Ow-
ing to special geological events. such
scavengers are totally wanting over
the greater part of the bottom, so that
the carcasses Of the creatures which
fall from above are left to decompose,
which they speedily do at the COM
paratively high temperature of the
water.
by their decomposition two soluble
compounds, carbonate o. ammonia and
sulphureted hydrogen, are developed
In enormous quantities, while no free
lime, except such as Is introduced from
the Mediterranean, Is left. The vol

The disappearance Of Fulton had
been one Of the mysteries of the

two miles from Asheville before the
engineer missed the fireman. A
search proved that he was not

but the missing man could not be
found.
1t was supposed that when
crossing the bridge he had fallen
