Cliff of Natural Glass.

A cliff of natural glass can be seen dn Yellowstone park. It is half a mile long and from 15O to 290 feet high the material of which 1t consists being as good glass as that arti6cially manu- factured. The dense glass which forms the base Is from seventy-dve to . hundred feet thick. while the upper portion. having suffered and survived many ages of wind and rain. has natu- rally worn much thinner Of course the color of the cliff is not that of nat. ,ural lglass-transparent and white-but Is mostly black and in some places mottled and streaked with brownish red and shades of olive green and brown

MOSCOW CATHEDRAL.
Fanta site Looking Edifiee Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.

Fantastic Looking Edifice 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-Ivan 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 pineapple another melon, third is said to ape 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 church, the fitting legacy of ruler who grilled his counselors in frying pans and clothed his subjects in bearskins in order that trained dogs might worry and tear them to pieces.-Strand Maga- zine

A Kings Hobby.

The late king of Siam had an extraor- dinary 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 a new speci- men to his collection gathered under such circumstances more than com- pensated him for the risk which he had run.-London News.

Gothic Architecture.

Gothic architecture began about the ninth century after Christ and soon began to spread all over Europe. It's great feature is the pointed arch, and 1t was at first called the pointed style." Most of the glorious old world cathedrals are in the Gothic. and 1t is generally conceded that for religious purposes no other style of architecture Is so perfectly suited. It has been said that the first idea of the Gothic was suggested by the interlacing boughs and trunks of the great woods in which German Christianity was formed: hence the name Gothic.-New York American.

DISLIKES INNOVATIONS.
Hence the Rhino Bilndy Attacks Any.
 thing New to Him.

Sir Frederick Treves, 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, it's vision is weak, while Its intellect is weaker. It has however, two marked qualitieS-com- bativeness and a sense of smell. It Is aroused to Its maximum energy by the presence of anything that is new. This object need not be thing that is az gressive or inconvenient Its offensive. ness depends upon the fact that It is unfamiliar, and the more unfamiliar the object Is the worse the rhinoceros acts.
 When 6 rhinoceros smells man be will charge him with maniacal vio- lence, although the man may be mere ly sitting on a stool reading Milton. The massive beast will dash at him like torpedo or runaway locomo- tive simply because the smell of him is novel Actuated by this insane hate of whatever savers of an innovation, the rhinoceros has charged an iron wa ter tank on the outskirts of camp and has crumpled 1t up as a 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 thing composed, as it had imagined, of flesh and blood could be so hard. It went oil with an additional grievance and an increased swelling of the head. "

The expression in the prayer book kindly fruits of the, earth" has for most persons no definite meaning on account of the difference in signiti- canoe now attached to the word kind ly from that used when the expression was first written. The word kindly in that connection meant as nearly as possible ''of it's kind." and the express sion kindly fruits of the earth" meant "the fruits of the earth each after its kind"

DESCRIPTION OF
New Standard Dictionary illustrated
WITH THE NEW U. s. CENSUS

This most convenient and latest of all Dictionaries Is based on
Noah Webaers Dictionary, revised and brought up to date by the most
every demand of a modern and reliable Dictionary.
1t includes all words in the English language that do not properly
belong to a Dictionary of Technical Terms. In fact, its recent pubhca-
ton and careful revision enable it to define and treat a large number of
words of recent coinage that cannot be found in any other Dictionary;
n o matter how cumbersome and pretentous.
Surprising results are obtained in looking up the spelling, pronun-
into our language only Yesterday, as it were Take, for instance: Aero,
Aeropiantst, Aviation, Aviator, BipAne, etc, introduced as a result
Of recent aeronautcal activity also such new words as: Brainstorm'
Blhken, Cordtte, Denatured, Dunnite, Joy Ride, etc-aso Okapi, q n ami
nal allied to the Giraffe, and brought into prominence through ex Presi-
dent Roosevelt's explorations in Ahica-also Hookworm, Lettergram,
Nckelodeon, Stovaine, Hangar, Equihbrator, etc.
Thus the evidence of painstaking revision are found on every hand.

THE NORWICH REFERENDUM

The electors of Norwich voted,
1892 to S45, against charter estab-
fishing the commission form of gov
eminent. The day was stormy ana
only about two-fifths of the electors
balloted upon the amendment. But
enough balloted to indicate that the
people of Norwich are not willing to
adopt the new system The adverse
majority was 37S and beyond doubt
accurately reflects the view of the
greater number of citizens This de-
termination will be received with the
maximum of satisfaction, even by
those who favor commission govern
ment. The contrary would be true
if a common council of a score or
more of men had taken similar, or
contrary action. Here is the judg-
ment of more than 1000 voters, GER
tainly more representative of public
opinion than the expression by the
members of a legislative tribunal
would ordinarily be- Those who
favor commission government have

they can show the voters that the

CORPORATION and to assume its busl-
ness in either city a heavy bond issue
would have to be made provided the
legislature would grant a change.
The opinion is held by some people
in Bridgeport that the consumer
would be greatly benefited if the city
owned the electrical works, winch
may or may not be true. However,
the scheme has worked out well IN
NorwaIk and Norwich, but these are
much smaller cities than either New
Haven or Bridgeport, it must be con-
sidered and the financing Of NUM-
cipal plans much less costly.
Speaking of the agitation In
Bridgeport the New Britain Herald
says:
This is not a new scheme, it hav-
ing been tried in at least two places
in Connecticut with great success.
Judging by the reports made by these
institutions, cities doing business with
private corporations are PAYING
more for lighting the streets than
they should and still allow a reason
able profit to the corporations. Mu-
nicipal ownership, however, is a big
problem, it needs to be thought out
pretty carefully before being actively
care needs to be exercised afterwards
in regard to its management. Mu
nicipal ownership seems bound to
come, because the evidence shows
that too much is charged for light
and that there is no way by which
relief can be obtained except by COM
petition"
