"I have stood by the bedside of hun dreds of dying people," said an old physician at Topeka, "and I have yet to see a dying person shed a tear. No matter what the grief of the bystanders j may be, the stricken person will show no signs of everpowerine emotion. I have seen a circle of agonized children around a dying mother—a mother who in health would have been touched to the quick by signs of grief in a child yet she reposed as calm and unemo tional as though she had been made of stone. There is some strange and in explicable psychological change which accompanies the act of dissolution. It is well known to all physicians that pain disappears as the end approaches. And nature seems to have arranged it so that mental peace shall also attend our last lingering moments." (Jold in Manila Bay. A remarkable contract entered into with the Philippine government by con i tractors at Manila to raise the ten ships sunk by Dewey in Manila Bay has t suggested here that the contractors and others believe there is treasure on board } these hulks. A lot of money was found lon the vessels of Cervera's squadron. The Navy department is advised that the authorities in the Philippines have iiccepted the bid of the Philippine j Engineering and Constructing com | pany to do this work. The wrecks are to be raised and removed within one year from the dato of signing the con tract, which will be June 2. The Compauy has deposited the sum j of SIO,OOO as a guarantee that the eon ! tractors will receive no payment from 1 the government, their profits being de j rived from the junk raised, | The company has had an expert diver I and wrecker for some time, and he has ! made a close examination of the wrecks j and their value. This is ajbig under- I taking,and will involve the expeudi | tnre of several hundreds of thousands I of dollars. There was four bidders, a Japanese company, the Philippine Transporta tion and Construction company, and a firm at Cavite, and the Philippine Construction and Engineering Com pany.

Whence Coinci ElectrleKff At a time when electricity Is rapidly transforming the face of the globe, when it lias already in groat measure annihilated distance and bids fair to abolish darkness for us. It is curious to notice how completely ignorant "the plain man" remains as to the later de velopments of electrical theory. Some recent correspondence has led me to think that a vague notion that electric ity is a fluid which in some mysterious way flows through a telegraph wire like water through it pipe is about as far as he has got. and if we add to this some knowledge of what lie calls "elec tric shocks" we should probably ex haust his ideas oil the subject. Yet this is not to be wondered at. Even the most instructed physicists win do nothing but guess as to what electric ity is. and the only point on which they agree is as to what it is not. | There is, in fact, a perfect consensus "112 opinion among seientitic writers that it is not a fluid —i.e., it continuous stream of ponderable matter, as is a liquid or a gas—and that it is not a form of energy, as is heat. Outside | this limit the scientific imagination is ! at liberty to roam where it listeth, and, although it has used this liberty to a 1 considerable extent, no definite result | has followed up to the present time.— | Academy, I.lcklnK !I<*r Slninpn. We find the following anecdotes In a ! Naples paper: "At the postoineo yes | terday, amid the large crowd gathered | around the window, was a young Eng lish lady, handsome, well dressed and j accompanied by her maid. The young lady had just purchased some stamps and was about to affix them to it nuin- J her of letters which she held in her j hand. Delicately tearing off a stamp, I she said to her maid, 'Pull (sie| out your tongue.' And the maid, with Eng lish impassivity, thrust forth her tongue, while the mistress passed over it a postage stamp, which she subse quently stuck on a letter. She went through the entire package of letters, and for each one the obedient waiting maid thrust out her tongue for the mistress to moisten the stamp. Curi ous manners these English people ha ve." Horace (ireeley's Scrawl. It is said that the printers on the Tribune once "put up a job" on the only compositor in the office who couid read Greeley's writing. They made a rooster walk over a newly inked form, and then over ten sheets of copy-paper. The foreman wrote over it in Greelye's well-known scrawl, "The Plain Duty of Congress," and put it on old man I.awton's hook, The old man picked it up, growled a little, remarked that they had to shove the stufT on the old man aa usual, ad justed his spectacles, and began sticking type. The other printers watched him for a few minutes, but beyond a muttered growl or two he gave no sign. Lawton went on setting type until about half way through the copy Then he was stuck. He took the copy over to the foreman, and asked.— "Jack, what is that word?" "I don't know," replied the foreman; "you know I never could read that stuff" Lawton took the sheet down to Greeley and pointed out to him a par ticularly awful scrawl of the rooste's foot, asking what that word was. Greeley looked at it a moment and replied with a frown:— "Unconstitutional, of course." Lawton went back to the composing room and finished his task with the ut most coolness. The old man never knew how the copy was produced. When you wake up with a bad taste in your mouth, go at once to L.
