Perils of Uvlnx Xonr the Mex¬ ican Bonnilarj- I.ine. “Some peculiar conditions prevail at the twin cities of Nogales, Mexico, and Nogales, Arte.,” said t-lie Detroiter, who recently returned from a visit to Mexico. “The International boundary line is formed by a street that divides the two towns, and the boundary stakes are set out with a very nice regard for technicalities. There is a saloon there which has more than a local reputation, and the proprietor is certainly ail enterprising individual. Hts saloon is located on the street di¬ viding the two counties and at a point where the dividing line is not clearly defined. The patron of this saloon buys his drink in America, and, stop¬ ping across the hall, he buys his cigar In Mexico. In tiffs way tlie proprietor avoids the ditty on imported cigars and can provide his customers with the best make at lower prices than most of his competitors. “They tell an amusing story about an American who imbibed too much fight¬ ing whisky at this saloon. When he arrived at a certain stage, he allowed his prejudices to get the better-of him, and, standing near tlio boundary line of his own country, lie heaped anathe¬ mas and hurled defiances at die people across the border. A couple of Mexi¬ can officers stood across tlie street al¬ most within reach of the pugnacious American, hoping that he would stroll across into Mexico. He did get over there after awlffle, although the trip was wholly unpre medi tated. During a harangue against Mexican Institu¬ tions in general and the police in par¬ ticular he happened- to lurch too far over to starboard and fell into Mexico. The alel-t cops promptly grabbed him, and, though he didn’t get a chance to take in tlie flights, he paid quite an ex¬ tended visit to the country he had so eloquently maligned.”—Detroit Free Press. --- LONG RANGE BAPTISM.

It so happened that by tlie time the parties came to opposite sides of tlio bourn heavy rains had swollen it into a rapid torrent, so that neither party could approach the other. Unwilling to turn back with the “bairn” unbaptteed, tho farmer pro¬ posed that the minister should splash water across. Accordingly tlie minister stepped down to the stream and en¬ deavored to throw handfuls of wuter OU tfte fanner’s baby. “Ila'e ye got ouy o’ that?" ho cried nt eacli successive splash. “De’il a spuirge," was (ho reply. At last a few of the splashes were communicated to tlie infant’s face, and tlio ceremony was then concluded in the usual form. Before retiring to their respective homes the farmer produced n bottle of whisky, crying across, “As I canua offer ye a glass owre the held o’ this, here's the bottle— kepp!” And he threw It across the stream, Tho bottle was caught, It is related, with a precision that betokened on tho part of his reverence, if not considera¬ ble practice, at least considerable dex¬ terity.—Stray Stories. CnoRlit n Tartar* Like so many of hksjearned brethren in. tlie Olmreli of England, the late Canon Carter was tlie terror of Com¬ positors. His was perhaps, after Doan Stanley’s, the very worst handwriting of the last century. . , . About 18S0 the then bishop of Lich¬ field, Dr. Mac-lagan, surprised one of his secretaries by saying: “I have hardly ever received an anonymous letter, but 1 got one tiffs morning. It is very badijr written, and I cun hardly make it out. but from the signature it is sure to be. abusive. The man has signed himself ‘A Tartar.’ See if you can make it out.” Tlie secretary, who knew the hand¬ writing, rather startled his lordship by rejoining: “It’s nothing alarming. It’s only a note from Canon Carter of Clewer!”—London Tit-Bifs. Mfi of the White Kind* Tlie whole fabric of social inter¬ course is Interwoven with what would be lies according to a strict code.

La. earthquake at Guam. Washington, Oct. fi.—Acting Sec¬ retary Darling of the Navy De¬ partment received a cable message to-day from Rear Admiral Wildes at Cavite, P. I, transmitting the following message from Captain Schroeder, naval governor of the Islamd of Guam; “Reported destructive earth¬ quake (at Guam) Sept. 22. No Americans injured. Damage naval station estimated at $03,000. Dam¬ age to insular public buildings and bridges, $22,000. Authority is re¬ quired to purchase necessary ma¬ terial for island to make immedi¬ ate necessary repairs.” Manila, Oei. 0.—The collier Aus¬ tin, which lias just arrived here from Guam, brings reports of a series of severe earthquakes there Sept, S'j as a result of which the marine barracks at Agana end other buildings collapsed ai d much other damage was done. Two natives were killed. One hun¬ dred and sixty shocks were expe¬ rienced in twenty-four hours. The population was terrorized and fled from the buildings and encamped out of doors. The Au-tin will return to Agana with lumber and other materials for the construction of government buildings. Negroes (u I* rot cat. ^.■Washington, Oct. 7. —Bishops Alexa.nYler Walters of New Jersey, G..W. Clinton of North Carolina, and Ilev. L. L. Carrutliers of New York, representing the Executive Committee of the “Afro-American Council,’ 1 called upon the Presi¬ dent to-day to ascertain his atti¬ tude toward the movement among certain Republicans of the South to- exclude the negroes from par¬ ticipation in the counsels of the Reput>!ica nparty. They were as¬ certaining whether .the President indorsed the aclion of the Repub¬ licans in North Carolina and Ala¬ bama with this end in view. They were presented to the President by Gen. James S. Clarkson, surveyor of the port of New. York. Post¬ master General Payne arrived at tlie White House while the confer¬ ence was in progress, ami was pres¬ ent part of the time. After the interview the colored men express¬ ed themselves as highly pleased with what the President had said to 1 hem. Chicago, Oct. 8. —The 2-slory brick building occupied by tlie Pittsburg Plate Glass company at the southwest corner of Peck street aird Wabash avenue was almost entirely destroyed by fire early to¬ day. The loss is estimated at $250,000. Roanoke, Ala., Oct. 8. — Five store houses and contents were to¬ tally destroyed by lire at this place yesterday morning, causing a loss of about $50,000, partially icovered by insurance. PECULIARITIES OF SOUND. The Klml of Note Host Stilted For l.oim ItnnKc SlgnnU. Signals made by sounds of explosion are not the most reliable. Their pene¬ tration is obviously often uncertain, while, their duration being brief, they may be missed by momentary inatten¬ tion. The reed horn was the more effi¬ cient instrument as* compared with guncotton cartridges over London. The siren wiukl probably have been yet more efficient as also doubtless a horn capable of producing two-notes differ¬ ing, say, by the Interval of a third or a fifth, a conclusion arrived at many years ago by experiments,which have, been unhappily too much lost sight of. Professor Pinzzl Smith found by trial that a high note was generally more penetrating os a signal, but advised that such a note should not be used alone, assigning as one reason that in¬ dividuals possess note deafness similar to color blindness, so that no one note could be trusted, Experiments went to prove that a sound varying between a high and n low note best arrested at¬ tention at long range. And the same result has been arrived nt In another way. The peculiar cr.v of the Alpine guide, which is, In fact, of that nature which Professor Smith nd vocatos, has doubtless been taught by the exigencies of his situation, where his voice Is required to carry across broad and deep ravines. Nature lias taught ttm puine lesson In the Austra¬ lian wilds, where the characteristic “Cowl, cowl!” appears osseutlul to pen¬ etrate the deep woods. Nor Indeed need -tre look farther for an example of the same kind than our own village lanes. The high pitched voices of children arp very fnvreuobing. Their shouting ean be heard farther away in the sky than that of man, and 111 calling to their fellows they always employ a trick of the voice taught doubtless by experience. The child pill summon hrr playmate from far away with a well practiced “Sally,” the first syllable, high pitched and pro¬ longed, giving place to the second syl¬ lable uttered abruptly in a yet higher note. Ami tiffs mode of calling Is uni¬ versal.—Nineteenth Century. THE TUfiQyQISE, The turquoise, the bbtlmtone for De¬ cember, signifies prosperity. The turquoise was a familiar anil fa¬ vorite seal fivneiKs tlio undent Mexi¬ cans and Indians of the west. The turquoise fades when its owner Is 111, and dies when the wearer Is at¬ tacked by im Incurable malady—so they suy. The Germans claim that by its vary¬ ing shades the turquoise turns telltale on the caprices ami moods of its w<wr, Shakespeare gives these words to Shylock: “He would not have lost tils turquoise ring for a whole wilderness of monkeys.” The turquoise derives its name from a word meaning Turkish and is so called because the first turquoises wore found In Turkey. If your birthday comes in December and you wear n turquoise, you need never he afraid of falling off a high place. One of the powers of the azure liued gem is to preserve its wearer from tiffs catastrophe. It is also said that it has tlie power of protecting its wearer against con¬ tagion, A turquoise would certainly he tin ornamental substitute for vacci¬ nation. Its efficiency would probably depend upon the “faith” of the wearer. Rnliltltz at Play.

They come down with their tails to¬ ward each other, but instantly, with an, as it were, “Excuse my tall!” both turn and run and leap again, and tiffs they will do from two or three to half a dozen times, always leaping up at the exact moment when they would otherwise come into collision and one always taking Hip higher-leap—some¬ times an astonishingly high one—right over his companion. They never meet tn the air, nor can 1 see how this eau be avoided except by a plan or figure being mutually followed by them, as with ourselves In a game or dance.

New York, Oct. 7.—It is stated that less than four days’ supply of coal remain* for the running of the pumping stations of the Brook¬ lyn waterworks and unless more coal comes before Thursday or Friday, the pumping station may have to close. The gas companies in Brooklyn are all short of coal. Many Brooklyn churches probably will close if the coal famine con¬ tinues. A gang of coal pirates is nt work in the lidrbor, and in future many captains of tugs and barges will go armed to fight the rubbers. One barge captain reports that lie was robbed of ten tons of soft coal while on the way from South Am¬ boy, N. J, The captain suvs lie was i wakened by men who board¬ ed the barge. They were armed with pistols and he was powerless. They loaded four skiffs and dis¬ appeared with their precious cargo. A soft coal famine, on the heels of the present anthracite coal fam¬ ine, according to the coal dealers, is now impending, and is likely to strike this city in a few days. The Strike in New Orleans, New Orleans, Got, 8.—The at¬ tempt this morning of the New Orleans Railways Company to start cars on its lines, which have been completely tied up for eleven days, precipitated a long impend¬ ing conflict between the strikers and those who attempted to fill their places. Although a hundred shots were fired nobody was kill¬ ed, but 10 persons were injured. Mayor Capdeveille, who requested Governor Heard to order out the militia, lias been advised that Ma¬ jor General Glynn in command of the military district of the state, will report to the mayor to-mor¬ row morning. The Street Railways Company announces its intention to make another attempt to run its ears in the meriting. The strikers who have stood firm from the start, are as determined as ever, while the citizens of New Orleans, who have been walking and ruling in all manner of conveyances for four days, more than a week confident¬ ly expect trouble. Blacks Wilt Fight “Lily Whites.” Raleigh, Oct. 8.—Leading ne¬ groes, including II. P. Cheatham, ex-recorder of deeds at Washing¬ ton, and ■ ex-Congressman J. E. O’Hara, issued a call for a negro stale convention here Oct. 18 in opposition to the “lily white” R< ‘ • publicans. They denounce the re¬ cent Republican state convention for tabooing- negroes, and Senator Pritchard’s acceptance of the fran¬ chise amendment, which elimi¬ nates four-fifths of the negro votes. Tlie call says a state ticket must be nominated, and asks for a congressional nominee in each district.

All who run after the gilded chariot of joy get covered with dust, and are left limping along the road quite bereft of that de¬ gree of comfort with which they started on the mad race. Yet sometimes, when the quest for one’s ow u happiness is quite out of mind, when one is absorbed in making some one else liappv, down like a bird from the highest heavens comes joy, and settles as it nt home, in the heart that lias forgotten itself. Happiness is never touched by the iraud (line reaches out for it loo ugerly. It flies into some hand open to give, not stretched out to receive. The angel i always appear unex¬ pectedly, ns did the angel who sat by the tomb when Mnrv visit d it at. dawn. Going out to mourn, she was met by unimaginable joy. How often does tin- long-antici¬ pated feast turn out to be a fam¬ ine, gaiety having fled from the house overborne bv much ponder¬ ous preparation. He who seeks happiness for its own sake shall lose it. and he who loses happiness for another’s sake shall find it, even in the hour when he thinks it is gone froth him for¬ ever, and is content to have it so. —October W oman’s Home Com¬ panion.
