A kinosa Hobby.

The late king of Siam had an extraor- dfnary hobby-that of collecting empty matchboxes of all nations. In this connection an interesting story is re- lated. During one of his visits to Eng land the king while passing down Bond street one afternoon, accompanied by two members of his suit. espied an empty matchbox which had been dis carded by It's owner and thrown away into the middle of the thoroughfare. Without a moments thought the mon arch dashed into the middle of the crowded traffic. grasped the much cov- eted treasure and was nearly run over by passing cab. The fact, however, that he was able to add new speci- men to his collection gathered under such circumstances more than com pensated him for the risk which he had run.-London News.

MOSCOW CATHEDRAL.
Fantastic Looking Edifiee Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.

Fantastic Looking Edifiee Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.
 One of the most extraordinary and fantastic Christian places of worship in the world is the Cathedral of Mos COW, known as vasili Blajenni. strange not only in outline and conception, but even stranger in its history. No one knows the architects name, but the story goes that the czar ordered his eyes to be put out directly the church was completed. so that he should nev- CT be able to surpass his work. The idea of the building was inspired by the wickedest and maddest monarch who ever sat on throne-I7an the Terrible, czar of Muscovy.
 The architecture is in every respect extravagant and 'barbaric, and the col bring is garish in the extreme. It has nine chapels. ,roofed by nine cupolas. each different and each stranger than the other. One resembles a pineapple. another melon, a third is said to ape a hedgehog in it's appearance, and the rest are more or less grotesque. Some are gilt; others are painted in brilliant hues. Indeed. the only description is that 1t is nightmare of a church. the fitting legacy of a ruler who grilled his counselors in frying pans and clothed his subjects in bearskins in order that trained dogs might worr, md tear them to pieces.-Strand Maga- zine

DlSLIKES INNOVATIONS.
Hence the Rhino sIindly Attacks Any

Hence the Rhno sIndly Attacks Any
 thing New to Him.
 Sir Frederick Treyes, the distinguish ed British surgeon, in his book 'Ugan- da For Holiday" has word or two to say about the rhinoceros.
 "The rhinoceros is the embodiment of blind conservatism" he writes. Its hide Is impenetrable, its vision is weak, while it's intellect is weaker. It has, however, two marked qualities-com- bativeness and sense of smell. It is aroused to its maximum energy by the presence of anything that is new. This object need not be a thing that is az gressive or inconvenient. It's offensive ness depends upon the fact that 1t Is unfamiliar, and the more unfamiliar the object Is the worse the rhinoceros ect1.
 When a rhinoceros smells man he will charge him with maniacal vio- lence, although the man may be mere H sitting on a stool reading Milton. The massive beast will dash at him like torpedo or runaway locomo- tive simply because the smell or him ts novel. Actuated by this insane hate of whatever savors of an innovation, the rhinoceros has charged an iron wa ter tank on the outskirts of camp and has crumpled it up as blacksmith would an empty meat tin.
 "A conservative rhinoceros with senile dislike of anything new once charged a train on the Uganda railway. but with no more serious results than the tearing away of the footboard of carriage As regards the rhinoceros in this case, 1t appeared surprised that a thing composed, as it had imagined, of flesh and blood could be so hard. It went of with an additional grievance and an increased swelling of the head"

 Thackeray's Satire.
 ThacKeray created quite erroneous Impressions of himself by often indulg- tng in irony i'll the presence of people who were incapable of understanding 1t. One curious instance which he gave was this: Thackeray had been dining at the Garrick and was talking in the smoking room after dinner with vari- ous club acquaintances. One of them happening to have left his cigar case at home, Thackeray. though disliking the man, who was notorious tuft hunter, good naturediy offered him one of his cigars. The man accepted the cigar, but, not finding 1t to his liking, had the bad taste to say to Thackeray. "I say. Thackeray, you won't mind my saying I don't think much of this c1gar?" Thackeray, no doubt irritated at the mans ungraciousness and bear tng in mind his tuft hunting predilec- tons. quietly responded, You ought te. my good fellow, for 1t was given me by . lord" Instead, however. of detecting the irony. the dolt immedi. ately attributed the remark to snob- bashness on Thackeray's part and to the end of his days went about declar- ing that 'Thackeray had boasted that he had been given a cigar by g lord."'
