The intensely cold nights Of Siberia,
says writer. produce a curious phe-
nomenon. Occasionally the silence Is
broken by loud report resembling the
boom Of a cannon. The noise is caused
by the bursting of an ice bubble on n
river. The streams coming from the
hills are incased in ice six to nine
inches~thick. and as the water de-
sends faster than 1t escapes through
the river the result is n heavy hydro
static pressure. This first causes the
ice upon the river to rise In mounds
often six to eight feet high. For a
time they seem to yield elastically to
the pressure, but finally can with
stand no more and burst with an ex-
plosive report. The water rushes out,
soon freezing, however, and causing
further explosions. The writer asserts
that he has seen scores Of these Ice
hillocks within few miles.

Kent His Word.

A young fellow In Havana who oc.
cupied the position Of reporter fell
in love with a girl, the daughter OF a
wealthy planter. He applied to her
father in the orthodox way for his
consent to the marriage.
'Presumptuous!' said the father,
with eyes flashing. you, a poverty
stricken journalist. and my daughter!
Sir, get out of my presence"
The journalist was very angry. 1t
brought forth heated declaration OF
pride:
"Your daughter is too good for me,
you say? will marry princess be-
fore | die" And, with head erect, he
left the irate father
The journalist went to Spain. He
wrote poems. The poems were read
by the Princess Josephine. There was
a meeting. The two fell in love with
each other. 1t is said the journalist
was so sincere In his affection that
probably he forgot his declaration to
the Havana planter. They were both
royalty happy, eloped, married In VAL
ladoIid and were eventually pardoned
by Queen Isabella, the one time jour
nalist being received with all the re-
spect due to his new and high rank.

The rack is gait of the horse be-
tween a trot and a gallop or canter in
which the fore feet move as In a slow
gallop, while the hind feet move as In
a trot or pace. 1t is usually an arti-
fetal gait, but is sometimes hereditary
or natural. There Is much confusion
Of terms in respect to this gait, due
to the fact that the gait itself is some
what varied. according as the racker
carries the one or the other fore foot
foremost in the galloping motion of
the fore feet; that many confound the
rack with the pace, the words often
being used anonymously, and that
many have mistaken the use of the
words pace" and "amble." There is
abundant evidence that the American
pace Of today is the amble of Eu-
ropeans of the last century and earlier.
The motion of the hind feet is the
same in the trot, the pace and the
rack. In the trot the diagonal hind
and fore feet move nearly simulta-
neously. In the pace or amble the
hind and fore feet of the same side
move nearly simultaneously.-Bo Boston

When Ladies Wore masks.

In the seventeenth century ladies
wore masks in public, and great was
the variety of face screens that were
seen. Ladies' who had "coralline" lips
preferred short masks. as was natural.
For others who wished to hide the
lower part of the face the mask was
completed by a chin piece Of linen,
which afterward passed under the
chin and over the ears. In 1882 new
mask called the mimi, from the Ital-
ian mimics, was all the rage and
threatened TO usurp the place of the
black one. 1t was even the cause of
violent quarrels between the ladies
who held to the latter and those who
preferred the latest novelty. Some
years later 1t became the fashion to
trim the upper part of the mask with
a ruche of lace, to lengthen It with a
beard Of the same material and even
to cover 1t more or less with lace to
the borders of the eyeholes. Young
ladies of this period. however. fire..
quently contented themselves with COW
ering the face simply with piece Of
black Grape for coquetry's sake and to
appear the fairer.
