Hard faced bartenders made ready for the "hottest night that ever tore the camp loose." The artillery of holster and saddle boot was uuliuibercd for an ecstatic fusillade. There was lively betting in dust aud nuggets that the i first through stage had been gathered in by Indians, with takers as eager to ■ stake their faith that the scalps of | driver and guard would come through I intact.

Tlio Polite llurniHii. In the cities of Burma, where the i natives have been long in contact with j Europeans, says the author of "Bur • ma, Painted and Described," they have lost some of their traditional polite i ness, but in the country districts old school courtesy Is still the custom. An | English gentleman who had bought a [ new pony was trying him out on a ] Burman road when the animal bolted , and ran at top speed down a narrow I road. In the way ahead was si native I cart, in which was a family party out 1 holiday making. The pony dashed Into ' the back of the cart, threw his rider j into the midst of the merrymakers and i severely injured the Burman who was \ driving. Before the Englishman had | an opportunity to explain his uuexpect ; ed onslaught the Burman picked lilni i self up and bowed low. "My lord, ! my lord," he said apologetically, "the I eart should not have been there." Inlirrited Meiuorlm, j A writer in (lie Nineteenth Century j tells a strange story of "inherited j memories." The ruins of an ancient | Roman fortress rise from the grounds !of a Mr. Phillips. A clergyman called j upon the owner one day and asked to | see the ruins. "He told me he had a i distinct recollection of living there and I that he held some office of a priestly j nature in the days of the Ilomau occu ' pation," said Mr. Phillips. "One fact | struck me as significant. He insisted | on examining a ruined tower which j had bodily overturned. 'There used to J b? a socket in the top of It,' he went on, 'ln which we used to plant a mast, and archers used to lie hauled to tlie top in a basket protected with leather, from which they picked oft .the lead ers among the ancient <Jorlestonians.' We found the socket he had indicated." When Pari* Wan Dirty. It takes the labors of 4,000 to keep j the city of Paris clean today, but in i times past that capital did not care so j much about the matter and was not always pleasing to look upon. In 1348 King John of France made the request that Parisians should nof allow tlieir pigs to roam the streets. Charles VI. (130S-14221 complained that the prac tice of throwing rubbish into the Seine made it a "great horror and an abom- I ination to look upon." Until the sev | teentli century everybody who could | went about Paris on horseback in order j to avoid contact with the filth of the | streets. Various ordinances were made ! to compel the people to sweep the road before their own doors, but it was not until 1791 that the dust cart became nn | institution. A liullnby.

Enrrhqiinkeft. Among the many strange relation ships which earthquakes hold to vaii ou.s natural phenomena there is possl bly one between (he times of their oe currence and of irregularities In the revolution of the world. For many years it hns been observed that there are slight but Irregular changes in lati tude, or, in other words, the axis of our cartli does not always point in the same direction. The pole wanders about lu a mean position, sometime?! Ui a path that is nearly circular, while at others It appears to in- exceedingly Irregular and even retrograde. The world top Is not spinning truly, hut it slightly wabbles. When the change In direction of its axis Is sharp large earthquakes have been frequent. If a swiftly moving body is, so to speak, compelled to turn a corner, that it should be subjected to strains which might result in yielding is easily con ceivable. Regarded from this point of view, thi- times at which strata in seismic strain give way are to some extent governed by erratic movements in the rotation of our sphere. The earthquake and the wabble may, how ever. be due to a common cause, and the question therefore is one which re quires closer examination.—John Milne in National Review. A (<oo<l llorMo'.i Color. A good horse cannot be a bad color. It is said. It is certain that Derby winners are not drawn from certain colors, lias a gray ever won the race, or a dun or a skewbald or a piebald? lias there ever been a thoroughbred of the latter type? Quite black thorough breds are rare, white still more so, gray uncommon even among the less exalted of public performers. The "Stud Hook" would not bear out these statements where colors uncommon on the race course are described. The ex planation K of course, that the horse is there described us be appeared as a foal. An owner of a bay thoroughbred looked up the "Stud Rook" to find his purchase pictured as a chestnut and complained to the men of whom he had bought the horse. The former owner assured hiin that the descrip tion was correct at the time it was en tered. Other owners, less certain as to what color may appear when the first coat has been cast, have before now made such singular entries as "gray, roan or chestnut." St. James' «Jazette. Tile Poronplne'n <iuiils. The spines are very loosely attached to the porcupine, and they arc very sharp— as sharp as a needle at the outer end. At almost the slightest touch they penetrate the nose of a dog or the clothing or flesh of a person touching the porcupine and stick there, coming away from the animal without any pull being required. The facility in catching hold with one end and let ting go with the other has sometimes caused people to think that the spines had been thrown at them. The outer end of the spines, for some distance down, Is covered with small barbs. These barbs cause a spine once imbed ded in a living animal to keep working fartl*er in with every movement of the muscles, so that it is not a pleasant thing to get stuck full of them.
