A Lesson In Grammar,

A New York man when he visited
Boston for the first time was uDde-
cidcd at what hotel to stop. AS he
wandered up Summer street from
the South station, he determined to
inquire for a good hotel. So he ac-
costed a fine appearing man who
was coming toward him, confident
that from such a citizen he would
be sure to get the very best advice
as to his choice of a stopping place.
What would be a good place to
stop att" he inquired of the stran-
ger.
Gust before you reach the at"
was the disconcerting reply.-Cos-
mopolitan.

KEEPING sTEP re MUSIC.
Why Some Men In q Parade Are Sure
to Be Out Of Time.

~ ~ NV W WsV
There are many thousand men in
u army and thousands more in
the militia of the several states, but
every n of them has at some time
or other, in some parade or other,
cursed luently the leading company
(the one right behind the band) for
not keeping step with the music Of
the band. 1t is a common sight,
whether the soldiers be regulars or
militia, to see companies with diff
ferent step when they ought to be
by regulation with the same step.
Call to mind any parade recently
seen and the remark will be verified.
1t is an easy thing for the most
ignorant soldier to learn how to
keep step, and as a rule all do know.
Especially is this so when applied
to the sergeants who are called
guides and whose step the whole
company has to take up.
OF course the reason is found in
the comparative slowness of sound
travel. Each company in a parade
really has step with the music that
it hears, but the farther back it is
the later does it hear the music, and
consequently the later is the step
until beyond a certain distance the
step is too soon, having lost a pc
Rod.
To get the exact distance the fol-
lowing calculation will suffice: In
ordinary quick time the soldier steps
twice in a second. In one-fourth
second, then, a man will have raised
his foot to the highest point, thus
executing half a step. At this iden-
teal instant the sound Of the note
has just reached a man ninety yards
behind and his foot will just be
striking the ground. A man ninety
yards farther will have the step Of
the front man, but it will be on the
wrong foot, and while the position
of the foot will be the same the ac-
tual step will be all wrong because
Of this. A man ninety yards farther
will have his foot in the identical
position with the second man, but it
will also be the wrong foot. Not
until we strike a man ninety yards
still farther do we find one with the
same step as the first man. All this
because sound travels at about 500
yards a second.
Of curse the regulation in the
army prescribes that a soldier keep
step with his company guide and
that each succeeding guide keep step
with the one in front, thus making
every one keep step with the guide
of the first company. This is the
regulation, but few live up to it.
Even the officers of a real company
will think that their company is the
only one with the right step and
think that the forward guide will
catch it in a minute and so they
don't change.
There is nothing prettier than "a
long column of soldiers in perfect
step, yet it is the rarest thing in
the world for them to be so unless
they are marching round in a wide
circle where every man a see the
front man.--Lawrence Hodges in
Chicago Record Herald.

9 Water Eyes.

Deep sea fishes, as a rule, have
either very large eyes or no eyes at
all. The large eyes are fitted to
make the most of the little light
that is present at great depths, and
this is amplifed by the phosphores-
cence of certain deep water denizens
themselves. A bunch of polyps on a
flexible stem was brought up from
a depth of 2,175 fathoms between
Madeira and the Spanish coast. As
it came to the surface it gave out a
brilliant phosphorescence, as did
many allied forms dredged in deep
water. No doubt these creatures,
like their congeners in shallow wa
tiers, emit light in the deep sea, and
the deep sea- animals with eyes
probably congregate round them or
grope their way in the gloom from
one collection TO another as they lie
scattered over the bottom.-Har-
Der's.

The Difference.

A music dealer sent a piece called
4Impromptu Waltz" to a man who
ordered one called "Valse I'm
promptu." The dealer, on being
taken to account, said crustily that
he didn't see, for his part, much diff
ference between a "valse impromp-
tn" and an "impromptu waltz"
The patron retorted to this: "The
difference, sir, between a 'valse i'm
promptu' and an 'impromptu waltz
may be similar to the difference be-
tween a blind Venetian and a Vene-
tian blind"
