Ask Orientalist to Explain.

The American Society of Biblical Lit erature and Exegesis, at its recent meet ing in Philadelphia. passed a resolution calling upon Prof. Hermann V. Hilprecht . professor at the University of Pennsyl- vania, to make public reply to the charges laid against him of faking in connection with some ancient tablets which he claimed to have dug up at Nip pur. It is charged that these tablets, which are now in the museum of the University of Pennsylvania, instead of having been dug up by the professor, had been bought by him in various cities of the Orient and that most of them had never been near Nippur. It Is also de clared that the tablets were in the hands of dealers some years prior to Dr. Hill precht's alleged discoveries.

He Knew What He Wanted.

A few days before Christmas a mum. Der of children were congregated be- fore the window of toy shop Toys of all descriptions were displayed, from dolls that coasted down a miniature slide to a hairy COW that plaintively munched make-belieye hay and uttered Moo" at stated intervals. One boy about seemed especially pleased. He was on crutches, and when the crowd thinned a little, the writer saw that he had but one leg. He was with some friends, and their conversation revealed that his name was Jim, and that for a whole year he had been saving money with which to buy his Christmas gift.
 q can't decide what to buy" said one of the boys T haven't any idea what I'd like the most"
 q haven't, either" said another. "What'n you get, Jlm?"
 "Oh, know!" answered Jim, smiling brightly. I've known for a year, be- cause that's what Eve been saving my money for. I'll go in and Eet 1t now, and show you when come out"
 Jim looked happy, and hobbled gladly through the door. In few minutes he returned with a parcel tucked under his arm, which he unwrapped with his friends.
 What is It. Jim" asked one, and then called incredulously as tho paper disclosed It's contents. Skates! Why, Jim Phillips, what can you want with skates? My, but they're beauties!"
 "Yes," said Jim, proudly. they're the best I could get"
 But you can't use 'ems" said one of the boys.

Hocus Pocu. and that Sort of Thing

Hocus Focus and that Sort of Thing.
 I saw Hindoo out In the open street take three good sized balls, larger and heavier than hens eggs, and commence tossing them up in the air, catching them as they returned. Soon his hands were motionless, but the balls kept ascending and, so far as I know, are ascending still. They did not return. Were they dematerialized by some in- visible psychic power? Such Is my opinion. During my stay in Madras there came down from q mountain a genuine psychic and seer. He was truly a venerable mystic. In bunga- low on a bright sunshiny day, 3 o'clock D. m., a dozen present, this old yogi burned incense, repeated some mantras and said In substance, Now I can move any object In this room by my will" Refecting few moments, said, Command those peacock plumes up there to come to you" Focusing hls thought, his will, upon them, they leaped at his bidding from the case and, sailing around the room, fell at his feet. Other objects were moved in a similar manner. This was genuine white magic-St. James Gazette.
