Tourists Who Do Their Mountain
Climbing by Telescope.
The tourist of today who visits the
Alps and who lacks the physical en
durance or whose 1 is too limited
to make the a- c>.r o l.ie of the fa
mous peaks nevert lielcf is able closely
to survey tlie panorama of mountain
scenery through t':" radium of power
ful telescop s located Ihe terminals
of the mouniain nsiboads. P.y this
means the rocks and ::laciers and pe
culiar formations of these historic
mountains may be carefully studied,
though the spectator need not ap--
proaeli tliem within many miles.
Each of these mountain telescopes Is
mounted on a forked cradle and is so
nicely balanced that its position may
readily lie fixed by the tightening of
smnil thumbscrews after the focus
has been adjusted with a band wheel.
The magnifying power of the instru
ments varies from l! 5 to no diameters,
but is adapted for landscape observa
tion only.
When weather conditions are suita
ble, climbers 011 the Titlis may be seen
through the telescope at Uetliberg,
near Zurich, a distance of forty miles,
and the hotel 011 the Faulhorn, sixty
miles away, may be recognized. Every
step of the toilers on the slopes of the
Matterhom can be followed by means
of the instrument on the Kiffelalp
above Zermat t. Several lives have been
saved by the means of these glasses,
for signals of distress on the moun
tains are seen by the watchers at the
telescopes.—l larper's.
A Birilseyc View.
The following incident occurred dur
ing a terrific thunderstorm at the home
of a contractor who lives in the vicini
ty of Tampa, Fla. The contractor and
his family were sitting on the veranda
watching the storm when a bolt of
lightning struck a tree not fifteen feel
from where they were sitting.
The shock was terrific, but 110 one
was injured, although they were all
badly frightened. The young sou, with
great excitement, was telling that he
jumped two feet high.
"llow do you know you jumped so
high?" said his father.
"Why," said Johnnie, "I looked down
while I was up."—Youth's Companion.
Wagner's Swan.
What interests me about Wagner,
says a writer in London Opinion, is his
affection for live beasts and animals.
In "Siegfried" we have a dragon, and
In "Lohengrin," as you are all aware,
there is a very beautiful swan. When
tlie late Sir Augustus Harris produced
this latter opera something went
wrong with tlie bird. Just before the
rise of the curtain, therefore, the au
dience wns considerably surprised and
startled to hear the indignant voice of
one of the stage bands resounding
from tlie realms behind inquiring with
characteristic vigor, "What's the mat
ter with that Infernal duck?"
A Blissful Supposition.
Miss Black—Mr. Brown, does you
know whut a bird of paradise Is? Mr.
Brown—Well, of co'se I doesn't know
foil sure, but when I gits ter de nex'
worl' I wouldn't be a bit surprise ter
diskuvah dat it was a spring chicken.

His wife agreed with him. "You
