THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. VENICE A DELUSION. An KiiRllnliman "nrr nt It ('mini mid , DManeea. An Englishman who hod seen Vcnieo 1 but to be disillusioned, writes of his im jirtwsion to tho Westminster Budget as follows : "Here is a description of what those rtm.-ils aro, taken from my diary, and it is literally truthful, which the ports and tho painters novsr are. On either side staggers a crowd of decayed build ings; from tho roof downward they are a mass of squalid ruin; broken balcon ies cling to the stnined and discolored walls, great scabs of plaster have fallen from their fronts as if a leprosy had eaten them ; for a foot above the water the walls are black with slime, tho broken windows are stuffed with rags and paper, the shattered steps lead up to doors that swing by one hinge; the steps themselves are slippery with a greasy scum ; to the edge of the lower stairs there is a fringe of foul green weod it swings slowly in the crawling water; the iron grilles, once so beauti ful, are eaten by bitter salt rust; the shutters hang at all angles, flapping and creaking in the wind ; in tho crazy balconies there is a lumber of broken flower pots with dead flowers in them ; and through all theso reeking alleys the greenish gray water slowly pulses and oozes, covered with straw, egg bIicIIh cabbage stalks aud nameless refuse. Uver all this brood a hundred filthy and obttcene smell, each canal contributing a particularly putrid stench of its own. No longor does Venice sit in state; hour by hour and stone by stone she is surely sinking in her dishonored grave. "Night in Venice and music on the canal that surely would have its old charm. I had pictured the soft air, pulsing with sweet voices, and over all a sky 'thick inlaid with patiness of bright gold. Well, every night about 8 the singing certainly began, guitars tinkled, and now and then one hoard a fairly good tenor voice, but as a rule the men's voices were harsh and worn. And the women's indescribably shrill, and the songs they sang were Verdi and Bellini at their worst. 'Ah che la Morte' and its companion absurdities. And when once they began they kopt on; no sooner had one boat load of sing ers exhausted their repertoire than an other took up its place and repeated tho same songs with the same quavering and tinklings." MR. PLATT'S B.1EEZY LETTER. He Bays He Ha Made an Au of Hlmiolt and Amkm Pity. In a letter to tH Michigan Club, a Republican organization, on the oc casion of its celebration of Washington's birthday, ex-Senator Thomas C. Piatt wrote as follows in an answer to an invi tation to attend, addressed to the Presi dent of the Michigan Club: My Dear Sib: Again am I compli mented and honored by the invitation of the Michigan Club to be present as a guest at the eleventh annual banquet on Friday night. I have not married a wifo or bought a yoke of oxen, but I have made an ass o. myself by assum ing certain political burdens which I must carry out at this time. I shall grin and weep while you celebrate, for 1 have a complete conception of the magnificence of your banquets aud the eloquence of your orators. Pity me and pray for the man whom the angelic press pictures as so sataniu. T. C. Platt. Slow Hut Healthy. The Italian battleship Christoforo Colombo has a curious arrangoment for furnishing her seamen with drinking water. Experience proved that drii Ic ing large quantities of cold water af W)r violent exercise, especially while cruis ing in the tropics, caused many deaths. The water tanks on the battleship were designed to prevent such indiscretion. The water tanks on the vessel are connected with innumerable little rubber hoses, und on the end of each hose is a rubber nipple. When uuy Boaman wants drinking water he must turn a stop cock and then suck it through the hose aud nipple. It is slow work, but it has been found that it pre serves many valuable lives. San Fran cisco Post. A Novel Protection fur S 111 pi. An inventor proposes to utilize the compass of a ship t" warn the naviga tors of the appropch of danger- lie has constructed a c mpass which is reg ulated by a chtmical which will not be affected by the magnetic force on board the ship, but will b" keeuly sensitive to minute symptoms f-om any other mag netic inilueuce exerted at a distance from the vessel up to possibly two miles. This compass when affected by the mag netism oscillates ubout an eighth of an Inch, so the inventor asserts. When it is so affected the metal connections on tho rim of the dial plate will close a circuit, causing bells to ring in the en gine room as well as in the pilot house nd on the bridge. N. Y. Tribune. For Intuiting- the Emperor. A little girl of Metz, 14 years old, named Louise Fuchs, has just been con demned to eight days' imprisonment for having insulted the German Emperor. The insult consisted in writing a private letter to one of her little friends, in which there was something disrespect ful to his Majesty. Such sontonces are quite common in Alsace-Lorraine. Mine.

Ha Kxplnlna the Hill" In a Letter to tUI 1'ei khm. In a rorent article on the lato humor ist, "Eli Perkins" publishes the follow ing letter: Dear Sir: Yon ask mo how I cnnio to adopt the nom do plume of Bill Nye. and I can truthfully reply tlmt 1 did not do so lit. all. My first work was done on a territor ial paper in the Rocky Mountains 801119 twelve years ago, and was not signud. The stylo, or rather tho lack of it, pro vokod somo comment and two or three personal encounters. Other papers be gan to wonder who was responsible and various names were assigned by them as the proper one, among them Henry Nyo, James Nye, Robert Nye, etc., and a general discussion arose, in which 1 did not take a hand. Tho result was a compromise, by which I Was christened Bill Nye, and the name has clung to me. I am not especially proud of the name for it conveys the idea to strangers that I am a lawless, profano, aud dangerous man. People who judgo me by the brief and bloody name alone, instinctively shudder and examine their firearms. It suggests daring, debauchery, and de fiance to the law. Little children are called in when I am known to bo at largo, and a day of fasting is announced by tho Governor of the State. Strangers Boek to entertain me by showing mo the choice iniquities of their town. Eminent criminals ask me to attend their execu tion and assist them in accepting their respective dooms. Amateur criminals ask me to revise their work aud to sug gest improvements. All this is the cruel result of an accl dent, for I am not that kind of a man. Had my work been the same, done over the signature of "Taxpayor" or "Vox Populi" how different might have been the result I Seeking as I am, in my poor, weak, way, to make folly appear fool- lsu, and to make men better by sneak Ing disrespectfully of thoir errors, I do not deserve to bo regarded, even by strangers, as a tough or a terror, but rather as a plain, law abiding American citizen, who begs loave to subscribe him' solf, yours, for the Public Woal, Edoar Wilson Nyk. A LONG SLEDGE RIDE. A Trip of Two Thousand Miles Over Snow I and Ice. I Captain Joseph Wiggins is returning from Siberia by the overland route. A Sunderland engineer who accompanied tne last expedition to the Kara Sea and has just returned home, relates an ex citing experience which befell some of the crew who became separated from the ship while on shore at Auchaka, The ice unexpectedly broko up, and, as it would have brought disaster on the ship to have remained, tho Lorna Doone had to sail without them. Tho party left behind inclndod two cooks, belonging to Stockton aud New castle, a Sunderland engineer, and Mr., ijayburn ropnain, brother of one of the owners. The party were obliged to travel homeward by Bledges, tho journey occu pying over four months aud covering a distance of 2,000 miles over snow and ice. At Archangel tho party had their Christmas dinner with tho British Con sul, and they then resumed their sledge drive to Moscow, whore they took the train to St. Petersburg. They came from Reval to London by steamship, and arrived in England none the worse for their remarkable journey. London Times. CHEAP ENOUGH! AJFour Course Dinner Furulalied for JXiue a 1'lnte. Mrs. I. F. Guiwits, on Pennsylvania avenue, gave a challenge poverty din ner last week to eight guests. She an nounced that sho would serve a palata ble dinner of four courses, at 3 l-'i cents a course. It was pronounced a success, and, as it was u challenge, each one is striving to do still bettor. The dinner was decidedly informal, and Mrs. Gui wits had to answer all questions regard the cost and expense of each article on the bill of fare. Menu cards in French told the following story : Vegetable Soup. Mock Duck. Mashed Potatoes. Macaroni and Cheeso. Cabbage Salad. Mayonnaise. Banquet Wafers. Bread and Butter. Salted Peaunts. Indian Pudding. Tea, Coffee was served in the parlor, but it was not included in tho bill of fare. Kansas City Star. The American Wife. In talking with an American about the different conditions of women in Japan and the United States, a Japa nese diplomat once said: "When I marry I take a head servant ; when yon marry you become one." A man who recently visited Japan quotes a remark in a somewhat similar vein made by a Japanese interpreter. "I sat one day," he said, "at the door of a dining-room in a hotel in Tokio, where all kinds of foreigners were stay ing, and I watched them a they came in. The Frenchman came in witn ma dame on his arm ; the Englishman came in so (imitating a pompous, self-important personage). And his wife? Oh, she came after him like this (drama tizing a meek and timid woman follow ing). And the American husband? The Amoricun husband? "Oh, he's not in it. Madame sails in ahead of him, and he just wulks behind wherever sho goes." A Itval Temperance Town. Most of the inhabitants of Haugesund, Norway, have never tasted intoxicants.
