Where chess Is Most Popular. =

, Where Chess Is Most Popular.
Games may come and games may 60,
but chess bids fair never to loss tn
popularity. Nowhere else Is it SO popu-
lar as it Is In the village Of Strobeck,
near Halberstadt, In Prussian Sa1ouy.
Some time In the. eleventh century
Count Gunnelin, held a prisoner In a
stone tower In the village, amused
himself by carving set Of chessmen
and teaching the game to his jailers.
The tower, which still stands, Is known
AZ the Chess tower. The jailers taught
the game to their friends, who were so
pleased with it that they devoted all
theif spare time to practice. This de-
light in chess continues to the present
Id strobeck. Every person plays. The
village hotel IS called the Chess inn,
tournaments are held every year, and
prizes are given to the best players. II
a young man goes to an adjoining VII
lage for a wife who cannot play chess
he must pay fine, to be used toward
the expenses Of the next tournament
This subtle ordinance has spread 4
knowledge Of the game among the
young ladies Of all the surrounding vii.

bats and in following one another
around In circle raised the outer tip
Of one Of the long winglike fins high
out Of the water in graceful curve,
the other being deeply submerged.
They might be seen now gliding down
with flying motion Of the wings,
sweeping, gyrating upward with a
twisting vertical motion marvellous In
its perfect grace; now they flashed
white, again black, SO that one would
say they were rolling over and over,
turning somersaults. While swimming
along the two great arms or feelers OF
the devilfish are whirled about In
constant motion, like the tentacles Of
q squid. When these tentacles come
in contact with anything they close
upon 1t. It is generally believed that
this clasping. although at times doing
considerable harm to fishermen and
their boats, is largely automatic and
that, upon the whole, the deyilfish is

congress resolved that the flag of the

Union be thirteen white stars on blue

A Fable.

Once Upon Time there was a
Young Man who met Two Nice Girls,
who were Constantly Together. Now,
he was an Astute Young Man, and he
desired to say Something Pretty and
Agreeable to the Ladies, but he knew
that If he paid Compliment to One
Of them, No Matter which, the Other
would be Hurt. .s=.
So he Thought Rapidly for a mo-
ment, and then he said:
"Ah, know Why you Two Girls are
Always Together
"Why?" asked the Two Girls. ~
Because Everybody says that A
Handsome Girl Always Chooses q
Homely One as Companion, So That
Her Beauty may be Enhanced by the
Contrast" =. -. .. ~
After Such a Remark, either Both
Girls would be Angry with him or De
lighted. 81 4 - =

The great Irish agitator, Daniel
O'Connell, was at one time defending
a man accused Of murder at Clonmel
The circumstantial evidence was so
strong against the prisoner that the
jury had already determined upon
their verdict of guilty, when the man
supposed to have been murdered was
brought into court, alive and unhurt
The jury were desired to return their
verdict at once, and they did so, but it
was one Of guilty.

judge. 'What does this mean? II

The Rust Of Custom.

The bitterness toward innovation Is
Just the same in an army as out Of 1t,
but perhaps with more reason. A new
thing cannot possibly be accepted un-
til it has proved itself better than that
which it displaces. The first cannons
were possibly rejected, and the Chris
tian inventor took them to the Turk,
who used them at the siege Of Con.
stantinople. The first firearms were
bitterly opposed because they destroy
ed the soldierly bearing Of the troops.
The British navy strenuously objected
to the first large guns because one
charge would cost as much as one of
Nelson's broadsides. Ericsson's Mon
itor met with more opposition In
Washington than it did in Hampton
Roads,. At the outbreak Of the civil
war it is said that congress ordered
the adoption Of the new weapon, over
the objection Of the chief Of ordnance,
who kept specimen Of the old one In
his Office to show visitors how good 1t
was.-Army and Navy Life.

by a dredging vessel chartered by the
Calcutta Society of Natural History
was mammoth sea crab, which con-
tinually emitted bright white light,

placed In large tank, nothing pecul
lar except its immense size being no.
ticeable in the broad glare Of the

all was in pitchy darkness, the crab
surprised the naturalists by lighting
up the tank so that all the other sea
creatures, great and small, occupying
the same tank could be plainly seen.
