The wheel Vas on top of me, and the lamp waa out This was old times over again, and 1 had not oven the chance in the dark ness to select the spot on which to fall. I did not like the idea of trundling the machine all the, way along the lane when I ought to bo able to, do so much better timo oil its.back, so I rose slowly, placed the rujjichine upright again, and' wilt the lamp.

HoweverrI found my ma chine first, and being in an utterly reck less mood I sprang, upon it without ex amining it to see if anything were bro ken -or not, though ; I knew that no or dinary fall would injure that machine, and away I went and left them" there. I did not see that any explanation on my part would help matters, so I thought it best to leave well enough alone, which I did. ' Little use -as the .lamp was I found it had its advantages, because the lane turned a short distance ahead. In fact, it was always turning, even in the daylight, although I had never noticed that particularly before, and this time I ran square into the hedge" on the side opposite the ditch. J extricated the ma chine and onoe more lit the lamp. rl. thought perhaps it was safer not "to at tempt to ride any more, and so walked along, trundling the wheel, for I knew there was a bridge some distance ahead that had no parapets and I did not want to enter into- an encounter with it As I walked along beside the bicvele I saw something move on the Bide of the road and within the circle of light I A stal wart, unkempt tramp, who - had been I making the roadside his bedroom, rose up on his elbow and said menacingly : ouy, . monster, can yon ODiige me wirn a match? " 'Yes, f can,' ! said climbing upon my machine and putting the wheels in motion. "Get on vonr bicvela and wn'll have a match. Come along !'

"What. are you doing," he demanded, "traveling with your lamp out?" - "Good gracious," I said, "my lamp isn't out 1" but on looking around 1 found, alas, it was, and.

In looking at the ooean the mind almost instinctively turns to the fate of the ships which have found their . resting place therein. If the reader "were appointed to inspect the -hot- - ; torn of . the drained sea, he would be sure to look at onoe for some rem- nants of thia kind, overwhelmed by storm and battle. : . Faney has depioted these vessels as thickly strewn over the bottom of. the ocean, and at times as suspended initio aeptns, unable, on aooountof -. the density of ) the water, to find their way down,- But all we know of the conditions of the deen leads us to . believe that the vessel sinks to the bottom : straight away. In' a few hoursat most, it reaches its ever lasting grave and is ready for the swift destruction which awaits it . When it reaches the bed of the sea, . it must in port-sink into the ooze, -. which everywhere is deep. . Quickly the creatures of the sea who, by . long existence in fields wbere food is scanty, have learned to avail themselves of every chance of subsistence, seize upon all the or ganio matter which fortune has sent to them. Even the' masts and the other woodwork will shortly be hon eycombed and weighted down by en crusting forms. If the reader could ; traverse the field whereon to oome the shot rid-. . died ships of Trafalgar, be would probably be surprised at the little- change to be observed in the land scape. Each wreck wotild most likely' appear as a low mound of debris, in whiob it wpuld be difficult to" trace the semblance of the stout craft whioh waged the greatest sea fight of all time. ! Ships of European peoples have been for centuries finding their way to the floor of the ocean. Probably over 100; 000 vessels have. met this, fate since the timo when our race first began to spread throughout the world. Yet by far the greatest part of these have fallen upon the shal lows near the shore, where the swift currents and rapidly moving debris are likely to aid in their destruction and burial. How swiftly .; they disappear in these conditions may be judged by the experience ofthe diver who has sought for sunken treasures. Almost invariably; after 100 years or so have passed, they find that the craft is quite lost to sight : Far more money has been spent in such explorations than has been won from them. Curiously enough, the most per- manent records of man's empire of the seas i are ' being written in the ashes from the coal fed fires of the steamships. This, waste is in its na ture indestructible, and the mass of material contributed in any one year to the ocean bed is to be reckoned by the million tons.. In time all the great ship routes will be paved with this debris, which willTbe built intb the rocks, to remain as the most en during physical monument of man's - sway upon this sphere. New York Advertiser.; : u HE HAD A GOOD' MEMORY.- How m Bricbt Young American Astonished Soma Smart German Offloara. . A story is told of a bright young American and several German officers who at a dinner one evening set out to make him uncomfortable by chaffing him about his country. ' The young man is ' Albert EL Washburn, the United States consular agent, at Magdeburg. Henry F.. Merritt, consul at Chemnitz, was the first one of the Americans at tacked with a taunt from one of the Germans that he) could not give the names of the presidents of the United States. Merritt named them over with some deliberation ana arew irom ms German friend the declaration that he did not believe there was another Amer ican present who could do it -- Young Washburn - had said nothing until now, bntfhe broke in and declared, 'I can do itaiand I will give you the vice presidents. " He was about to begin when a second thought struck mm, and he said. "While I am about it I mignt as well cive you the secretaries of state too. " The ' Germans got down a book giving the names and kept tabs on the young man as he correctly went tnrougn the list They were pretty well backed down alreadv. but Washburn had no Idea of letting them off so easily. "Now, I should like to know, " he Bald, "wheth er any of yon can give the names of the Prussian rulers from tne time ox unarie magne and his sons down to the Emper or William?" Not one of them could go half through the list, and they were on the point - of anoloffizing to the young Massachusetts soholar when he took them down still more by modestly suggesting, "Perhaps I had better do it for you. " He began with Charlemagne and went through the list without a break, much to the astonishment of his German hosts and the deliaht of Consul Edwards and the other Americans. "How did you do W" asked Merritt "Ob. my father had a -taste for such things and taught them to me when I was a boy, and, yon see, t.hAv are sometimes useful to know," he replied.
