FELL INTO cATAcoM5s.

A curious accident happened the
other morning in Paris, where a
house sank down into the Cataeombs,
over which it was standing. The
house is a small one, consisting only
of a ground floor structure, situated
over a part of the old Catacombs. A
gliding downward movement was
felt by its occupant, and he hurried
ly fled. The house was gradually
subsiding over a distance of some 20
feet, and the courtyard threatened to
disappear with it, having sunk some
IL feet beneath the surrounding sur
face. Steps were taken at once to
prevent more serious accidents to
neighboring buildings.

MEXICAN DWARF DEER.

While hunting in Durango, Mex,
last spring | learned some facts as to-
the natural history of the Whitehall
deer Of that region, which were So
surprising to me that they appear to
be worth noting in print.
These deer are dwarfs, a full
grown male weighing probably less
than 100 pounds. In fact when rum
ming at full tilt through the chapar-
raj they very much resemble jack
rabbits. They subsist entirely upon.
the leaves of the manzanita and the
acorns of the live oak. The latter
are swallowed whole, but my sur
mise is that they are thoroughly
masticated upon reorganization.
Why these animals should be SO
diminutive in land Astounding in
food and water and why their hab-
its should be so different from those.
of their northern congeners is surely
q puzzle.-Forest and Stream.

TAKING COUNT OF STARS
Astronomer Royal Gives Some inter
estlng Statistics Regarding the
Heavenly Bodies.

Mr.. F. W. Dyson, the astronomer
royal, in a recent lecture gave some
interesting statistics concerning the
number Of stars and the rate Of
their progression.
In 1888, the lecturer said, it was
calculated that there were 100000
stars down to a magnitude of nine
and half. Now, more than a mir
lion for the whole sky had been
definitely aScertained as to their po-i
sitions and magnitudes, and the
number of stars approximately I'M
the sky down to the fourteenth mag
nitude was twenty-four millions.
The motion Of the stars, the as
tronomer royal added, was imper-l
ceptible, and the star with the great
est motion was a very faint one. III
was discovered in 1897, Travelled s.7
seconds year, and its rapidity of
motion had gained for it the title
Of "the runaway of the skies" I'M

LEGEND OF THE PHOENIX
Built Its Own Funeral Pyre and Thenl
Famed Flames With Its
Wings.

According to ancient writers, the
phoenix was bird of great beauty
about the size of an eagle. Only one
of these birds could live at a time,
but its existence covered a period Of
800 or 600 years. When its life drew
to a close the bird built for itself a
funeral pyre Of wood and aromatic
spices, with its wings famed the
pyre into a flame, and therein con-
sumed itself. From its ashes a
worm was produced, out Of which
another phoenix was formed, having
all the vigor of youth. The first care
of the new phoenix was to solemnize
its parents obsequies. For that pur-
pose it made ball of myrrh, frank
incense, and other fragrant things.
At Heliopis, a city in lower Egypt,
there was a magnificent temple dedi-
Gated to the sun. To this temple
the phoenix would carry the fragrant
ball and burn it on the altar Of the
sun as a sacrifice. The priests then
examined the register and found
that exactly 500 years or exactly 500.
years, had elapsed since that same
cermony had taken place.

SWIFT THREE.LEeeED FOX.

John Davis shot three legged fox
on the East mountain, Bennington,
the animal in spite Of the handicap
of a missing front foot giving the
hound a chase Of over two hours be-
fore it crossed the hunters path ard
was killed.
The fox had evidently been caught
in a trap some time ago. just how
long it had been travelling the
mountains on three feet could not be
determined, as the stump Of the leg
was perfectly healed and was cow
cred with fur. -Kennebsc journal.
