A TALE OF TWO CITIES.
Tin? 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

LONG RANGE BAPTISM.
Christening: In Seotlnnil Wns Con¬
ducted Under pitttpoHle*'
In wide and sparsely populated high¬
land district's of Scotland it not infre¬
quently happen* that a parent is oblig¬
ed to walk a distance of five or six
miles \It with an infant for baptism,
is related of a minister of-the
north that he agreed to accommodate
a parishioner thus situated by moot¬
ing him at a streuin midway between
the parents' house and tlie manse aiu)
there baptizing tlie child at tlie run¬
ning water.
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,

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.

Alexa.nYler Walters of New Jersey,
G..W. Clinton of North Carolina,

indorsed the aclion of the Repub¬
licans in North Carolina and Ala¬

were presented to the President by
Gen. James S. Clarkson, surveyor
of the port of New. York. Post¬
master General Payne arrived at

ence was in progress, ami was pres¬
ent part of the time. After the

ed themselves as highly pleased
with what the President had said
to 1 hem.
Chicago, Oct. 8. —The 2-slory

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.
Rabbit* piny In this way: Two of

more—run quickly toward each other,
and when on the point of contact each
leaps into the air. but one higher than
the other, clearing him completely.
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

believe that each clears the other al¬
ternately, but 1 have not yet convinced

Coni Famine.
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.

Raleigh, Oct. 8.—Leading ne¬

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

The Pursuit of Happiness.
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
