Rocks and Cholera.

The present day security of this
country against all danger of a chol-
era epidemic is matter for thankful
ness not only in human circles, but in
the rookeries too. When the cholera
slew nearly 10000 people in the insan-
itary United Kingdom of 1872 the
rocks appear to have suffered with
them. This was stated, at any rate,
to have occurred on the estate of the
Marquis of Sligo, which boosted one
of the largest rookeries in the west Of
Ireland On the first or second day Of
the epidemic's appearance an observer
noted that all the rocks had vanished.
During the three weeks through which
it ragged there was no sign Of them
about their home. but the revenue po-
lice found immense numbers of them
dead on the shore, ten miles away.
When the epidemic abated the rocks
returned, but some were too weak to
reach their nests, and fve-sixths Of
them had gone.-London Chronicle

A Nickname For Barrett.

Lawrence Barrett. the tragedian, was
subject to dyspepsia, and when he was
suffering from that disorder he was
cold and distant toward his company.
One irreverent fellow always refused,
however. to be suppressed. He said one
day: Just look at Cassius. He looks
as solemn and righteous as if he'd
swallowed the sword of justice. Let's
call him the Scabbard." And the Scab-
bard he was-out Of his harrington
