Poison of the Centiped.

The centiped is popularly supposed to carry a sting on each foot. but I have several times handled one after it's head was removed without the claws producing any result. 1t is the first pair of claws only that are ven omous, being hollow and provided with poison bags like snakes fang. The largest I ever saw was eleven inches in length. grewsome creature.

Practice and Preachina.

When the late Bishop Hare was pre- siding over a Methodist Episcopal church in New York city large re ception was given in his honor to which brother of his, a lawyer, who closely resembled the bishop, was in. vited.
 During the evening member of the conference who had never met the bishops brother approached him and shaking him warmly by the hand said:
 }*Good evening. Bishop Hare. great ly enjoyed the sermon you gave us to day. It is just what this church needs.''
 ''You are mistaken in the person. said the brother, smiling, as he point ed to the bishop on the opposite side of the room. that is the man whe breaches. I practice.'

 ..Coquenn! Coquenil!'' Then down in the courtyard it sound ed, and out into the street, where a group of students started the old snap py refrain:
 Oh, oh! II nous faut-o!
 Beau. beau! Beau Cocono-o! When at length the tumult was still ed and the panting, sobbing audience had settled back in their seats, the pre- siding judge, lenient at heart to the disorder, proceeded gravely with his examination.
 Please state what you know about this case,s he said, and again the au- dience waited in deathlike stiffness. ssThere is no need of many words,' '' answered M. Paul. Then. pointing an accusing arm at De Heidelmann-Bruck, ssI know that this man shot Enrico Martinez on the night of July at the Ansonia hotel.'s
 The nobIeman sat rigid on his chair; the judge went on with his questions.
 ssYo say you know this?" he de manded sharply.
 ssI know it, declared Coquenil. '.I have absolute proof of it-here" He drew from his inner coat the baron's diary and handed it to the judge.
 ssWhat is this?'' asked the latter.
 ssHis own confession, written by him. self"
 The judge turned gravely to De Hei- delmann-Bruck q have a painful duty to perform, sir. Take this man out, under arrest, and clear the roonl.' ,

 sorry when you left me in that hot cellar" said Coquenil. "Now. you're in a fairly hot place yourself, baron, and I'm not sorry
 De Heidelmann-Bruck shrugged his shoulders.
 ssThe point is," said the baron, "I am going to pay the price that society ex- acts when this sort of thing is found out. am perfectly Willing to pay 1t, not in the least afraid to pay it and,
 above all, not in the least sorry for anything I want you to remember that and repeat it. I have no patience
