Mr. Thomas was nlono at tho station, which is in 13 feet of water and three miles from tho shore. It is not easy to nppre ciate the dreadful forebodings which filled his mind as day after day he watched tho thickening ice, conscious as ho was of the great peril which environed him, his distress signals unnoticed, with that vast field of ice expanding its mighty power against tho piles and gathering additional strength every moment as it overlapped and piled up against the doomod structure. To pray in such a crisis was a most natural thing to do, and pray ho did, long and fervently, and ho feels assured that his prayers were answered, for it was not very long before ho descried in the distance tho smoke of a steamer bat tling with tho ice. Slowly she proceeded along until, getting abreast of the' sta tion, she was stopped by tho thick ice. Although the steamer was some half mile out toward tho ship channel, tho nervy keeper determined to abandon the station to its impending fato and make tho effort to reach her. Getting npon tho untried ieo ho proceeded toward her, waving his hat to attract tho attention of thoso on board. When within hailing distance, ho cried out lustily to the officer in com mand, and was told to come aboard, which lie did in safety. On leaving tho steamer higher up tho bay for tho shore ho hroko through the ice in eight feet of water and came near being drowned. Cor. Washington Post. A Salt I.nke In Africa. Tho French government lias jnst sold to Mr. Chefneux the right to refine and export salt from Lake Assal, one of tho most remarkable sheets of water in tho world. Tho lako is in the district of Obock, East Africa, only a few "lilee from tho head of the bay of Tad .h The gentleman who has purchnht .t the concession agrees to pay into tho colonial offico tho sum of $10,000 a year, and if, during tho 50 years that he is to have the exclusive right to export salt from Lako Assal, the annual product exceeds 60,000 tons he is to puy a tax of 20 cents for every ton in excess. T. he government will designi to a part of tho lako where the natives may secure all the salt they want without tax or hindrance. All along tho edge of this little lake, which comprises only 1(5 square miles, is a bed of nearly pure salt about a foot in thickness. Tho water of the lake is so surcharged with salt that it is impossible to sink in it. The bottom is apparently a bed of solid suit. The heavy waters lave the bases of jagged and procipitou.-. liiomi tains which descend to the edgo of the Iuke, making it almost impossible) to travel around it. Mr. Chefneux will probably carry on his work by floating machinery on tho lako and dredging in the salt bed nt its bottom, though on the west side ot the lake an enormous (iian tity of salt is in si;'ht when tho lake is at its lowest level.

A few years ago I was assistant janitor of a largo insurance building near old Trinity, New York. The head janitor's family lived in tirceiiville, N. J. He went homo every Saturday night. The elevator man (my brother) mid I took turns in watching the building Sundays. Tho janitor had mi old friend who was a pantryman on one of tho Old Dominion steamships. He called one Friday, but the janitor was out. lie was disappoint ed because tho steamer ho worked on sailed the next day (Saturday), and he told me there was a storm brewing and lie was afraid of a rough passage. Sunday morning I got my breakfast, went out and got a paper and then went down into tho engine room in the base ment. I sat there talking to the fireman perhaps 15 or 20 minutes. All this time tho front iron doors were locked and tho key in my pocket. At once we heard the front doorahovo thrown violently open, and it seemed as if a hundred peoplo came rushing in on the main office floor. The fireman jumped up and exclaimed, "Frank, what tho devil is that?" I listened a moment and somebody up stairs screamed: "My (rod! My Crodl We nro lost! We are lost!" Wo were both pretty well frightened, but we rushed up stairs and found every thing as quiet us the grave, not a soul in sight and tho front doors locked as I had left them. The next morning when I looked in the paper what should I see on tho first page but an account of a shipwreck, and it was tho very same ship that tho poor pantryman did not wish to sail on the Saturday helore. His namo was among the lost. X'tw can any one explain what it was I heard that Sunday? Cor. sew York Recorder. All KhglMl Note on I'lllllil'S Itrookft.

London Spectator. A Well Trnvrli'il Let tor. A Rockville man about nine months ago received a letter from his brother, employed on a steamship running out of L'ombay, India, asking him to send a United States $5 gold piece, which he wanted to wear as a watch charm. He obtained tho coin, inclosed it between two pieces of heavy cardboard, put it . i a letter and registered it. The letter started on its way, and Friday it re turned to the Rockvillo office. Tho en velope presented a remarkable appear ance and is a great curiosity, having traveled over 50,000 miles. The letter went to the dead letter office at Bombay, and tho coin had disappeared, having probably worn its way out of tho letter. Tho letter went to various points in tho east, us well as England and the con tinent, in search of the person to whom it was addressed. Eve.-y stoppage is reg istered on the letter, which is covered with marks and writings in all colors. The letter was returned by Postmaster Randall to the man who sent it, and al though the coin is missing ho considers th letter of more valne than when lie sent it. Norwich Bulletin.

A bellboy at the St. Nicholas, who will en.e day mal e his mark as a natural wit if his precociousness i.- not dimmed by a ctHegiato education, made a funny re port to Clerk Harry Clark one morning lai t week. A guest of the house on the moniiiig in question came down to tho office, jnd remarking to Clark that the wi other must be very cold asked what th.) thermometer indicated. Calling up the bellboy, Clark requested hhu to go out and seo what the thermometer indi cated, if he could read the same. Going out, he quickly returned, and when askt 1 how cold it was quickly replied that it was "one inch lielow freezing." Clark fell over a chair, and the patron of the house had a fit. Cincinnati Enquirer. Knglund's Vital Statistics. The slow machinery of the English government has just turned out the re port of vital statistics in 1891. It ap pears that the steady decline in the num ber of early marriages which began in 1874 etill continues. In the latter year 84 in 1,000 bridegrooms and 227 in 1,000 brides were under 21. In 1891 only CO men and 190 women in 1,000 married un der age. The odd fact also appears that the proportion of Jews in the population of England has more than doubled in 20 years, without counting immigration. This extraordinary fecundity is quite un matched by any other class in the pop ulation. Charleston Ktiri and Courier. Tejwhinjs HorsctH 11 Lckhoii. Teaching a new horse to come out of his stall nt the firo alarm signal and range-himself alongside the pole is not so difficult as might bo supposed. Imagine a pair of new horses assigned o an engine. The surroundings are mora or less terrible to them, but thev are very gently and carefully handled and graduallv lose their fear. Their tuition begins at once, and the driver is their teacher, assisted bv the other men. Tho ordinary signal is given, as if for afire. The stall doors open, and tho horses are led out, put in position, and in a few minutes led back. This process is perhaps a dozen times repeated. Great pains are taken that the animals shall not strike against anything, or be by any means frightened. lhe unusual spectacle ot a lir-rii"ss sus pended in air is apt to disturb them nt lirst, but the- are led slowly up to il and induced to smell of it and inspect it on nil sides. After they have been led to their posi tions a few times they are allowed t come ot tlu lr own accord when tun sig nal strikes, though a man stands behind them tu touch them up a little if they do not start prompt lv at tho opening of the doors. Two weeks constitute the aver age period of instruction, but horses have been known to learn in one lesson. Oth ers, however, aro months m arriving at equal proficiency. "Road, Track and Stable " Nrrve .liiri-lnjr .Joriilarlt ion. There is not mug m tne woriu wn cii produces the senso ot mental nausea more completely, or is more certain to turn tho intellectual stomach, than tho use of certain jocularities of speech with which many people think fit to adorn their conversation. Tho peoplo who seem to find it impossible to speak of nil unmarried man except as "a gay bach elor," with whom tho sea is alwavs "the briny" or the "herring pond," and r horse "a fiery steed," who eternally talk about "Sunday-go-to-meeting" clothes, and who have such phrases as "no extra charge," "agitate the tintinnabulator. "the noxious weed," "tho pipe of pence," "40 winks," and "braving the elements" forever on their lips, aro callable of pro ducing a sense of disgust in thoso who care to see language kept bright and clean which is absolutely intolerable. It is difficult to say whether these cant phrases that is, a perfectly proper de scription of them are more odious when used consciously or unconsciously that is, by people who believe them to bo funny and intend that their hearers should con sider them fimnv, or by those who have merely caught them up and repent them like parrot. i and without any intention, good or bad.- London Spectator. No Virtue In Vliolo Oraln or Itran, Among the ancients the "toothless hag" was a stock figure. Homer was bald, Diogenes was bald. Ulysses was bald. How did thev become so on bran or whole grained bread, such as was used in their times? The miller of this dav is niakiii no mistake in bis work. No civilized nation, with a mixed diet, is in any dan ger from the usu of white flour. The "sweet and pleasant flavor" oi bread made out of old liuhr flour or ruder meals was duo to no wholesome, nutri tious quality in the flours or meals used. It was simply tho dirt that is, the nonilonry parts of the wheat berry in corporated in the product of rude lmllni: that gave that flavor. The bread is mor nourishing without it and more digesti ble without it. Modern milling is all right. The human intestines nro not in tended for mere bran conveyers. The bran should go to tho bran bin, and from there to the animals that can digest it. Man is not among those animals. Mill ing World. Tho Unilts ot Human Hearing- We can do a great deal to cultivate) the ear, but we can do nothing to ex tend the range of sounds which tho tym panum can receive. Tho ear may have great keenness of perception, may hear sounds extremely small, distant and faint, and yet be always deaf to any noise, however loud, if it is lower or higher in pitch than the tympanum is made for. Various experiments show that about tlie lowest, or what in a mu sical instrument would bo called the deepest buss sound, consists of 12 i undu lations in tho second, and the highest of rather more than 0,000. Human ears have not all the samo compass. A party of young people, all with excellent hear ing, may go into tho meadows, and some will hear the shrill note of the common grasshopper, and some will not hoar it even faintlv, but simply hear nothing at all. Dr. Wolhustou believed that "human hearing never extends more than a note or two auove tne cry or tne common Gryllus camiiestris." He gives a scale of sound which he found to be inaudible to some ears. He found that somo people could not hear the cry of the bat, nor the chirping of srmrrows, which is four oc taves abovo 1- in the middle of the piano forte. Not to be able to hear this hist note ho considers to be very rare. He believes tho whole range of human hear ing to bo compressed between the deep est notes of the organ and the highest cries of tho insects, including fully nine octaves, tho whole of which are distinctly audible to most ears. New York Home Journal. Cultivating Color In Cats. A ever liave cats held so important a position in the animal world as thev do at the present time. In days gone by pussy's chief value consisted in her capa bilities as a, mouser, and so long as she accomplished her work satisfactorily that was all that was required of her Nobody troubled as to the shortness of her face, the size of her ears, or tho length of her tail. Every one was per fectly satisfied with her sober gTay coat and four white feet. Her green eyes. too, we all took quite as a matter of course. But now a very different state of affairs exists. In many instances her propensity for mousing only coiiiposes one of her numberless characteristics, if indeed the most aristocratic sieeimeii8 deign to cat'-h a mouse at alJ. lhe markings which tire now produced in our cats art? certainly wonderful. We have striped tabbies and spotted tab bies, the stripes and spots so clearly and regularly defined in the best cats that it seems difficult to believe that it is all na ture.

A Strange .AccUltsitt. "Tho strangest accident that ever fell within my observation," said Harold Chapman to a friend in the Lindell, "oc curred at my home in Medicine Lodge, Kan. One day in May, 1889, I was driven into the liouso by a thunder shower. The rain moderated in a few minutes, however, and I took a chair and sat out on tho porch. My youngest boy was playing with a tin cup, catch ing water from tho rain pipe and pour ing it along a rut in the floor. Tho water ran along this rut out onto tho cistern platform. While ho was stooping to fill the cup from tho ram pipo a flash of lightning came, seemingly attracted by the iron cistern pump. Tho current leaped from tho pump to the current of water that ran along tho porch and flashed along its course to the end. "As providence, accident, ill luck or something else would have it our Thomas cat had come out from tho kitchen and was standing close to tho wet gutter made by pouring of tho water. Tho cat received the full benefit of tho flash, nnd lay scorched and dead in an instant. Now I saw that flufch distinctly, and saw it travel from tho iron pump along that gutter to tho cat. If my boy had been there tho result would have been tho same. If he had not, why I snvposo it would have been attracted toward one of us and serious results might havo fol lowed. I slightly imagine that 1 owe my lifo to that cat's ill fate. I am much obliged to tho cat." St. Louis Globo- Democrat. Tho Kuriowmeiit of lutifliterH. The propriety of endowing daughters appears to bo now seriously discussed in different parts of tho country. This arises partly out of a growing senso of justice, which, tho philosophers say, is the last sentiment to bo developed in the case of women, and partlv out of th commercial exigencies which in tho last twenty years havo left stranded so many women with no means of livelihood. The endowment of daughters would nc complish several ends. It would enable them to marry tho men of their choice. it would support them if they do not marry, and in caso of commercial disas ter would furnish at least temporary provision for tho family. Tho matter has progressed until tho methods of en dowments in different countries nro un der advisement. According to Sir Henry Maine it was tho passing of tho Roman dowry into France after tho conquest of Gaul that has made of Franco tho richest and most prosperous of nations. It is unlikely however, desirable ns it might bo, that tho frugality and self denial the hum blest ' Frenchman practices to lay aside his daughter's dowry will appeal to nation accustomed to easy living ami as impatient for swift results as this. New York Evening Sun. ISotll C.OOll. Mimv interesting stories have been told about that favorite son of the south, Henry W. Grady. One that was heard a lew evenings ago at an assemblage largely made up of Presbyterian clergy men shows that his colored coachman, who has not appeared prominently be fore tho American public, was well worthy to bo in the service of such a master. Tho Rev. Dr. Henrv M. Field was tho relator of tho incident. Dr. Field was visiting Atlanta and of course met Mr. Grady. Mr. Grady placed his carriage nt Dr. Field's disposal, and after driving about the city, on being left at Mr. Grady s office, Dr. Field rewarded tho coachman with a big silver dollar. Later in the dav Mr. Gradv remarked to Dr. Field that his coachman had told him of the lip, and at the same time had said that a certain Raptist clergyman, whom ho had driven about the citv a few days before as Mr. G lady's guest, had at tho end of tho ride rewarded him with his blessing, saying that he could givo no other reward. Mr. Grady asked which he preferred, the dollar or the blessing, and tho coachman, scratching his head, replied that both were good and that lie thought he preferred them mixed. "And there are many others of us, I think,'" concluded Dr. Field, "who prefer them mixed." New Y'ork Times. The I.I le of a ship. An interesting discussion has been started on the subject of the lifo of tho ships. It appeal's that this is very much a question of where the ship is built. It is found that vessels constructed in tho United States last, on an average, 18 years only. French ships average 20 Dutch, 22: German, 25: British, 20; Ital inn, 2 1 , and Norwegian, i!0 years. J. ho average death rate of the world's ship ping is about 4 jmt cent and the birth rate 5 per cent. It has become tho prac tice to construct certain parts of a ves sel of iron instead of steel, such as tank tops and decks exposed to the weather, but it is now found to bo a better plan to keep tho material tho same through out as far as possible, and the steel should le the same thickness as theiron. Chicago Dispatch. T RUSTEE'S SALE Editors mav nntl somo consolation in the fact that they have inspired feelin, of envy in tho breasts ot u. young Japa nese boy. A recent issuo of an East in dian paper contained tho following note "A schoolboy in Loerabayu was asked to describe an editor of a. paper. IIo did so in this way: 'An editor is tho luclcies' man m tho world. He can go to a cir cus every afternoon and every evemn without paying a cent. Ho can go also to tho court houses, tho places of execu tion and tho races.

IIo stays up lato to seo what happens. When I grow big I shall be come an editor. luen 1 can stay up too. A Sermon Kxchniigc. Tho latest enterprise which wo hear announced in tho young and enterpris ing west is tho "Sermon exchange,' of Chicago. Accordiug to popular belief tho practice of clergymen has boon to write sermons until tucy had filled a barrel. Then tho barrel would bo turned upside down and tho sermons all preached over again. Where a minister remained in a church a great many years the congregation would after awhilo bo gin to know when tho barrel was turned. Somo sermons wero looked forward to with much interest and others with more or less dismay. Tho Sermon exchange is to do away with all of this. It is no longer necessary to preach a sermon over a second time. Tho preacher can take an old sermon and tie twenty-fivo cents to it. This ho sends to tho exchange and receives one written by somo one else by return mail, or if ho lias no sermon to send he can get ono for fifty cents. Bal timore Sun.

A Knife on Its Travels. A huge knife, said to bo over 100 years old and resembling an ancient huy cut ter, was presented to the postmaster at Bangor, Me., just after the election. It was labeled "Adlais Ax." Across the blade in black letters were the words, "The melancholy days have come." This was a grim joke to play on a Republican postmaster, but he concluded to make the best of it. IIo tagged it and started it on a journey across the continent. At last accounts it was at Marquette, Mich., all covered with tags ami the comments each messenger hod added as the Dem ocratic guillotine passed over his route. Exchange. How Trees Are Like Human lteiiigs. Nature has many ieculiar laws gov erning the organism of trees. Ono is that every individual twig, spray, all the foliiiKO, every filer, takes precisely its own thickness of wood from tho par ent stem. This same law is manifested in the proportions of tho human organ ism. The length of the arms from finger tip to finger tip (arms extended) is the precise measurement of tho length of the legs of it human being, and other meas urement s are the same in proportion. Boston T. ranscnit. A liuiMtt (.fmdedl to Desperation. It was during a very tedious ride on a southern railway, and tho passengers, tired, dirty and thirsty, all berated the company, with tho exception of one sin glo passenger. His fellow passengers commented on this and asked him why he didn't denounce the company too. "It would ho hardly fair," he replied, "as I am traveling on a free pass, but if they don't do better pretty soon blaino me if I don't go out and buy a ticket and join you." London Tit-Bits. Scientific journals in England speak approvingly of a now method of manu facturing caustic soda, chlorine and other cnemicul products tlirectly from sea water with the aid of electricity. There is an immense saving of time, labor and material in the process. No man can write his signature twice exactly alike, and it is declared by some experts that if two signatures are pre cisely alike one is certain to be a forgery, a stuuent in a western college pro poses to deliver a lecture on commence ment day on "The Relation of the Wheel barrow to American Elections."

There was a tinio wlicn many of the Bhinnecocks shared in the occupations of the whito people and acquitted them selves with great credit. I alludo to th whaling period in Southampton history, The Shmnecock at sea, whether pure blood or half breed, mado an exact sailor. Tho discipline of tho forecastle was good for him, at least bo lonpj as ho was anoat. Many of them got to te mates, and one became a captain. Tliis distinguished sailor man was not a pure bred Indian, but was part negro, and probably had a small though potential quantity of whito blood. This was Captain Lee, and any one down toward Southampton or Sag Harbor can tell of his Riant 6taturo and immense strength. Tliis Captain Lee was tho son of a still more famous man, Parson Leo.

Economic entomology is that branch of the science which, loking beyond the mere collection and classification of in sects, has to do with tlie control of thoso which injuriously affect agricultural products. The college endowments of Massachu setts are said to amount to $10,050,000; the value of college buildings and grounds foots up 5,O13,000, and the val ue of scientific apparatus makes anothci $1,020,000.
