considers IL quite time he learned

the little boy regards it as no more
than an amusing game.

made another attempt to interest him
in this duty. All were seated at din

grace Williams small head dropped

Little Known Republics.

Within the domain of the United
States on the North American CONT
nent there have been divers independ-
ent republics. says Mary w. Hazekine
in Harper's Magazine. the very name
OF three of which Is knoYn to but a
few. How many Americans of today
have heard. for example. Of the COM
monwealth Of Watauga. which In 1172
was organized as an independent COM
munity by North Carolinians who had
crossed the Alleghenies and. descend
ing into the basin of the Tennessee,
had made themselves homes in the val
ley of the Watauga river? How many
remember the commonwealth of Tran
syivania, which was organized in the
eastern part OF what is now Kentucky
in 1T75 and which sent to the Cont
mental congress a delegate. who. how
ever. was not admitted? How many
have heard of the short lived state OF
Franklin. or FARMLAND. which nj n
somewhat later period was self ere
ated out Of certain western counties Of
North Carolina?

A Remarkable Concert.

A Carlsbad letter calls attention 10
remarkable concert which took place
at the Spa on Aug. G. 1872. a program
Of which is still preserved in the city
archives at that place. The entertain
ment was given for the benefit of the
sufferers by the fire which had laid
waste Baden and took place at the
Saechsischer Saal. The only perform
ers were Beethoven and Polledro. who
played their own compositions. There
were two pianoforte and two violin
solos and several numbers In which
both took part, says the writer. The
account of the entertainment also
mentions the fact that one OF the inter-
ested listeners was a tall. elderly
man. wearing a great blue coat. who
sat perfectly erect throughout the per-
Torrance. never looking anywhere but
at the stage. This was~Goethe." The
amount realized for the fund was
about 5000 The letter ends with.

Hindu juggling.


The Hindu jugglers and acrobats are
the most skillfnl in the world. One or
the latest stories told Of them is about
a performer who went through many
wonderful feats perched on the top or
a single bamboo stick about fifteen
feet In height. The top OF the stick
was tied 10 a girdle around his waist.
and leg rest was provided by ap:ush-
ion few feet down the pole. Perch
ed on this slender stick he hoped and
danced about in the liveliest way. ae-
companied by the tapping of drum
IT would be considered a skillful feat
to walk about with ease on a pair or
stills fifteen feet in height. but this
Hindu showed a marvellous power OF
equilibrium on a single stick He did
other things even more wonderful. For
example. he balanced a light stick on
his nose and heavy one on his chin
and then threw the heavy one into the
air with his head and caught II on the
end of light one. While balancing
the two sticks thus. end on end. he
made one revolve in one direction and
the other In the opposite direction.
