It were better that I should have been bitten,by the Fly than to have been tossed on your horns!" Moral.—The defense of a friend Is of tea more dangerous than the attack of aa enemy. M. Quad.

Abraham Lincoln cam# to Columbus sn Sept. 16, 1859, aud spoke from the sast terrace of the statehouse. He was announced as the “Hon. Abraham Lin¬ coln of IUluois” and came to Columbus under the auspices of the Young Men’s Republican club, better known as the Wide Awakes. This was his first speech in Ohio. He spoke In the fore¬ noon to a large audience, and the late Hon. George M. Parsons was chair¬ man of the meeting. That evening he was escorted to the market house on Town street by a committee consisting of the Hon. E. L. Taylor, Sr.; Charles Scarlett. General James M. Comley, and Charley Wing, and he spoke for a second time. Mr. Lincoln stopped at the old Nell House, and when the committee met him there to take him to the market house meeting they had a carriage at the door. “Oh, let’s walk, boys!” And he started out with Taylor at his side, the great Republican leader covering about five feet In each stop. Every one of the party was wall winded ex¬ cept Lincoln when they reached the speaking place.—Columbus (OJ State Journal. r Tbs Crowing Matches.

Strombolf. one of the IJpari islands, has constantly and usefylly performed the function of a lighthouse for at least 2,000 years. Circular in outline, the Island culminates In a conical shaped elevation, due to past volcanic agen¬ cy, which rises to the height of 3,090 feet above sea level nnd Is visible over an area having a radius of more than 100 miles. During the day masses of vapor are seen issuing from n point high up the mountain side, and at night successive displays of red light, varying in duration and intensity, somewhat resemble those of the gigan¬ tic flashlight on the const. The flashes last from under one to over 20 minutes, gradually Increasing to a ruddy glow and as gradually fading away. This island is referred to by several very ancient writers as the great nat¬ ural pharos of the western Mediter¬ ranean. Now it serves the same pur pose for the constant stream of trnf fie passing to and from the French and Italian ports la the gulfs of Genoa and of Lyons, through the straits of Messina, for which Stromboll acts ns a “leading” light. To such an extent Is this the case that, although the other principal islands of the Lipari archi¬ pelago are marked by lighthouses, nothing of the kind Is placed upon Ktromboli. A Dream That Came True. “Talking about dreams," said Mrs. Smith as we sat around the parlor, “I once had a very strange experience. I dreamed that I was just stepping out of my house for a walk when a funeral passed by. A man with a cap marked nine nnd a red sear running across his forehead jumped from the hearse and, approaching mo, asked, ‘Are you ready?’ ‘No,’ I replied, and with that I awoke. “A few months later I was stopping In Chicago. I wns on the top floor of one of the big houses and just about to step Into the elevator when I re¬ membered another thing I wanted to buy. I stopped aud looked through my notebook. ‘Down!’ exclaimed the elevator boy, and then asked me, ‘Are you ready?’ ‘No,’ I answered, and the door closed. “The next Instant a great crash was heard, and the occupants of the eleva¬ tor were dashed to an untimely death. “The cap of the boy bore the figure 9, and he had a red scar running across his brow.” — San Francisco Chronicle. That Boy. “Mamma, does money make the man?” “I am sorry to say it does sometimes, Tommy.” “Money will make a man go any¬ where, won't it?” "I suppose so.” "If It was down In Cuba, would money make a man go to raising man¬ goes?” "Don’t bother me.” “Do monkeys eat mangoes, mamma?” “I presume so. I wish you wouldn’t talk so much.” “Then, If money makes the man go to raising mangoes, and monkeys eat mangoes, don’t the monkeys make the mango go”— Whack! Whack! “Ouch!”—Chicago Tribune. A Natural Woade*. Buenos Ayres seems to have the largest "rocking stone” yet discovered. It is situated on the slope of the moun¬ tain of Taridil, in the southern part of the province, and measures 1)0 feet long by 18 feet broad and is 24 feet high. Its bulk is 5,000 cubic feet, and it weighs at least 25 tons. Neverthe¬ less. It is so beautifully poised that a single person can set ft rocking. When the wind blows from the southeast, the stone, which is pyramidal in form, ■ways to and fro on its foundation like the branches of a tree. The Tomato. The tomato was known up to 1830 as a “love apple” and regarded with suspicion. -It originated in Spanish South America and, being introduced into Italy from Morocco, was named **poma dei mori”—Moor’s apple.

Some Ink and n Shirt. I once remember having a noted Lon¬ don doctor out at sea for n Litle ama¬ teur fishing. He would like to see a loligo cuttle caught, he said. I warned him of what was likely to happen when gafllng was on, but he (lid not care. “Surely,” he said, “I can dodge such guesswork as thD must be for so short a time.” I felt dubious as to the result, seeing his white shirt was a prominent object through his having such an open vest. Finally a cuttle took the bait, and as I drew it toward us the doctor lost all thought of himself and his adornments In his admiration of the movements and the beautiful eyes of the creature when In an instaut, as I gaffed it, the whole ink charge struck him in the throat and sadly blackened his white habilimen ts.—Con temporary R*vU>w. Tbe Explanation. One morning the readers of a certain newspaper were perplexed to see In type the announcement that “the Seo tus handed down an important deci¬ sion yesterday.” The afternoon paper of the town, with w’hich the morning paper for years had held a bitter con¬ troversy, Interesting none but them¬ selves, laughed that day, as the poets say, "iu ghoulish glee,” and It was up to the morning paper the next day to explain that “the types” made them Bay that the Seotus did so aud so W’hen the telegraph editor should have known that that word was merely the abbre¬ viation of the telegrapher for supreme court of the United States.

WH.-’-CSKw M THE CRIMINAL CUCKOO. ____ He Is the One Exception to the Kind- 1} Vntnr« of Birds. • Bad temper and cruelty are perhaps the most obvious signs of meutal de generation In the beasts. The larger monkeys, for instance, become as bad tempered . _ violent . _ . when * they .. as a man grow old, and many In their treatment of other animals are cruel as we use the word lu regard to man. Among the carnivorous beasts the cat amuses itself by torturing a mouse, and the weasel tribe kill for sheer love of kill lng. No such cruelty Is seen among eagles or falcons. Fierce as their tem¬ pers are, they do not torment other t i'ds which they catch or kill for kill¬ ing’s sake. Good temper Is general among birds. Except the cuckoo, such a thing as an 111 tempered wild bird is unknown. Nowhere In the race can a temper like that of the Tasmanian devil or the wild hunting dog or the Cape buffalo or the baboon be found. Even those which In spring are thieves and egg robbers are not mauvals eoueheurs at other times. Good temper and good fellowship in society, a personal affec¬ tion to each other to which the beasts offer no parallel, industry and inde¬ pendence, fntense devotion and fore¬ sight In tending their young, with oth¬ er very human and engaging traits of character, must all be credited to the race of birds. Among these kindly and simple na¬ tures the cuckoo is a mouster. Let there be no mistake on this subject. He unites in his life and character, from the egg to the adult bird, prac¬ tices and principles to which the whole race of warm blooded animals offers no parallel. He Is an outrage on the mor¬ al law of bird life, something so fla¬ grant and so utterly foreign to the way of thought of these kindly beings that if he did not exist he would be Incon¬ ceivable. It is not merely that he is a supplanter and a clmngeliug. His whole nature is so evil that In the world of birds he is an incarnation of the principle of ill, an embodiment of vices which would if understood or adopted by other birds put an end to the existence of the race. — London Spectator. Mistakes in Christening. At Ramsbury Manor, England, there once resided a poulterer’s family of the name of Duck. The third son was to be christeued, and the mother wanted the name to be William. Just before starting for church the nurse ran up stairs to the father, who was laid up with gout, to tell him they were off. “What be going to call un, nurse?” “Missus says it’s to be William,” was the reply. “William be blowed!” said the invalid. “Call un plain Bill!” In accordance with these laconic instruc¬ tions the nurse gave the name of Plain bill to the clergyman, aud the infant was christened accordingly. In an even funnier way Is the queer Christian name of Mr. Ono Tlchiner of Peckham accounted for. When his parents and sponsors arrived at the church, his name had not been settled upon, and when the clergyman said, “Name this child,” one of the frieno* said “John," and another said "Oh, no!” meaning not John, and, as no one else spoke, the clergyman thought that was to be his name and baptized him Ono. The full account of the baptism is contained In Blanch’s “History of Camberwell.” A clergyman’s son vouches for the following: “My father was baptizing a boy of .6 years of age. The names giv¬ en were Benjamin Joseph. After the ceremony he said to the boy, ‘You have two very good names, and you ought to be a good boy. How did you como by them?’ ‘Please, sir,’ said the boy, ‘we was twins, and the other died!’ ” “Norma” and Liberty. In an air In the opera of “Norma” the theatrical censor went so far as to cancel the word “liberta” (liberty) nnd substitute for it the word “lealta” (loyalty). * * * Signor Roncoui, the famous baritone and a great public fa¬ vorite, having, in the ardor of his role, forgotten the above mentioned emenda¬ tion, was imprisoned for three days in order to refresh his memory. Not long after, singing the line in the “Elisir d’Amore” describing how a peasant enlisted, “Vende la liberta, si fe soldato” (He sold his liberty to be a soldier), he waggishly altered it to “Vende la lealta, si fe soldato.” This variation in the text wns received with lively applause by the public, who al¬ ways warmly welcomed anything that savored of political opposition. The next day the poor singer was summoned by the head of the police to receive a reprimand for having said that “loyalty could be sold,” to which Roncoui replied by observing that a few days before he had been taught In a way be was not likely to forget that “lealta” ought always-to be substitut¬ ed for "liberta.”—I’ietro Orsi's "Mod¬ ern Italy.” Artificial Spongsi. Affttfeclal sponges are made In Get many by treating pure cellulose with zinc chloride. The product swells ii water and on drying becomes hart But to prevent this action alkallhaloida are used.

When removed, It appears to be traversed by canals In all directions, and aftsr having been washed In alcohol and water the sponge is ready for use.

' 1 A London detective visiting Glasgow a Scotch police official on th# street and in the talk that followed spoke contemptuously of the ability Scotch thieves as compared with English experts. Takl “S thls as “ spe ”'? n c * st on ,. the astuteness of , the Scottish police as we ,, tbe Glasffow detec tive was net 0ed and thlrBted for reV enge. Look ing around, he espied a littls fellow who had been dogging them and who was known as an expert pickpocket. Crossing the street he addressed the boy, and, pointing to the retreating figure of the English detective, be ask¬ ed If he would know him again. “Aye," replied the boy. “What Shoot ur "I want you to lift his ticker. H» ■ays no one In Glasgow con relieve him of It.” "Ah, It’s a' richt See ony green?” "Honor bright. Tommy! I’ll give you half a crown when you deliver up the watch to me." "Ye will? An what else?” "Nothing else.” "Let’s see, then. I’m to lift the tick¬ er, an you’re to pay half a crown forit on the spot?” "Yes, that’s It.” “An wad ye ken It If ye seen It?" ‘T would among a thousand." "Is that It. then?” And the boy, div¬ ing Into his trousers pocket, displayed the Identical watch and explained that he had secured It “while the gent wae chaffin aboot the prigs.” Oriental Punishments. The heathen Chinee deems the dese¬ cration of graves one of the most un¬ pardonable of crimes, and, according to law, any man finding another In the act of robbing a graveyard may legally kill the villain on the spot with¬ out fear of consequences. If a Turkish baker palms off a loaf of bread on you that Is proved to be of less weight than It is represented, you can Instruct a policeman to nail the defaulter by one of his ears to the door of his shop so as to be in full view of the passersby. The poor wretch will then be provided with a sharp dagger or knife, with which he can cut himself fee so soon as he can summon up the necessary courage required for the op¬ eration of self maiming. In many of the oriental countries, where precious stones are looked upon as well nigh sacred objects, it Is no uncommon thing tor a Jewel robber to be punished with death. In Tibet the penalty for falling from your horse when taking part in any military op¬ erations or public athletics Is death. One writer recalls how he saw a man shot In Montenegro for appearing at a review wearing a stained uniform. &l»anlsh Nlekuamci, One of the peculiar ways In which Spanish differs from English is In the names the language gives to all peo¬ ple with a certain Infirmity or peculiar¬ ity. A blind man is referred to as el ciego; a man with but one eye Is a tuerto; a pug nosed man Is ditto; one who Is cross eyed Is a blsojo; a cojo Is a lame man, aud a manco has but one arm; if he Is humpbacked he Is a joro bado, If baidheaded a caivo, and If bis hair Is very short he Is a pelon. The feminine titles for the same classes are the same, with the excep¬ tion that they end In “a” where the masculine terminate with “o.” These short names are used most commonly. In fact, they are applied as nicknames In many cases, and especially among the lower classes persons are address¬ ed or referred to only by these names. Started Too Soon. A stout German woman descended from a Third avenue car. She had a baby on her left arm, and a small boy clung to her right hand. Just as she started to step from the footboard tit* car started, nnd down the three fell In a confused heap, with the baby appar¬ ently at the bottom- Two or three wo¬ men screamed, and the ear stopped., but before any one could go to her as¬ sistance the woman was on her feet and, with her two charges, had made her way to the curb. “Aeh!” she said lu answer to the sympathy of an on¬ looker. "Yah, der car It start already too soon yet!" Then she went on her appointed way.—New York Tribune. Roar For Him. ‘‘You understand, of course,” pursued the lawyer, “what is meant by a ‘pre¬ ponderance of evidence?’ ” “Yes, sir,” replied the'man whom he was examining with reference to his qualifications ns a Juror. “Let me have your Idea of it, if you please.” “1 understand It. 1 tell you.” “Well, what Is it?” "Why, anybody can understand that.” “1 would like to have your definition of it.” “1 know what It Is, all right When I tell you i know what a thing is, I know it. That’s all there is about that.” “Well, what was the question I asked you?” “You ought to know what that was. If you've forgot your own questions, don’t try to get me to remember them for you.” “1 don't want to hear any more of that kind of talk,” interposed the court. “Answer the questions addressed to you by the counsel.” “Judge, I did.
