tracted bv a pretty girl I n«ed to see at
the hotel where I stopped. Nobody
could help noticing her, she wa* such a
beauty. Her hair and eyes were very
dark, but her dash skin was aa that fair as a lily,
with just a of red came and
went in her eheeks. Her Her form form was was
slender, but well ronnded, and her hand
was sa white and finely formed as any
lady's Wynne, in the land. Her she name was Rote
and of coarse had plenty
of admirers, However hat ahe coquetted with them
all. theie were two who were,
a long way ahead of tbe others. I used
to wonder which she liked the best, but
Ioonldnevcr gness, for while she smiled
sweetly on one, she would fling a merry
word at the other; anti so on. Both
young men were good looking —one fair,
the other dark—and both wore carpen
ters. One was called Andrew Davis,
and the other Mark Sheldon.
Sheldon waa a jealous fellow, and
showedit. Davis was jealous, too, but
didn’t show it so plain. Sheldon was
always in a quarrel with her. Davis, I!

Barisal Rarisal t.nns. (inns.
On a distant land in the Bay of Ben
gal, journal, according there is to a phenomenon German scientific
a known
as the Barisal Gun, which is often heard
; at tbe beginning <rf a rainstorm, and is
like the sonnd of distant cannonading,
It seems to have no connection with the
season, and sometimes comes from the
i north, sometimes from the south or
southwest. A writer who has collected
some data on the subject, comes to the
conclusion that these sounds are atmos
phene and connected in some way with
, electricity. A tourist, in his letters from
the villages of the Himalayas, describes
exceedingly early powerful noises heard in
the morning, that can explained neither he
j ascribed to avalanches nrr by
the natives. Above the town of Koim-
1 hater, in Madras, on an elevation of
40,000 feet, is a pond from which Liri
i vani river springs, unTbeeaUse and which the natives
carefully ah frightful noises
^ rise out of it and roil awav «mong the
i hills. Some of the phenonipua mavhe
