"Impossible!" screamed all the bohe

Arguments in order to take notice of
the vastly becoming creation which
capped the bachelor maid's brown hair.
"Fifty cents, did you say?" asked the
man who once wrote a poem—aye, and
had it published. Then rising, placing
his hand above his heart, bowing low

THE BIJOHHIST HADES.
Eight Easy Stages of tho Most Awful
Kinds of Torture.
The places of torment to which all
wicked Buddhists are to lie assigned
on the clay of final reckoning is a ter
rible place of punishment. This Bud
dhistic hell is divided into eight "easy
stages."
In the first the poor victim is com
pelled to walk for untold ages in his
bare feet over hills thickly set with
redhot needles, points upward. In the
second stage the skin is all carefully
filed or rasped from the body and ir
ritating mixtures applied. In the third
stage the nails, hair and eyes are
plucked out and the denuded body
sawed and planed into all sorts of
fantastic shapes. The fourth stage is
that of "sorrowful lamentations." In
tho fifth the left side of the body and
the denuded head are carefully roast
ed, Yema, the Buddhistic Satan, su
perintending the work. In the sixth
stage the arms are torn from the body
and thrown into an immense vat
among the eyes, nails and hair pre.
viously removed. Then in plain hear
ing of the sore footed, blind, maimed,
roasted and bleeding victim the whole
horrid mass is pounded into a jelly.
In the seventh stage the other side of
the victim and his feet are roasted
brown, and then comes the eighth and
last stage, in which the candidate is
thrown into the bottomless pit of
perdition.
DEADLY MINE GASES.
White Damp, Firedamp, Black Damp
and the Fearful After Damp.
"White d.-iiiyi is the gas most feared
by the miners, for its properties ren
der it difficult to detect, inasmuch as
it is tasteless, odorless and colorless
and when mixed in the proportion of
about one part gas to nine parts air is
called "firedamp" and becomes explo
sive to a degree hard to realize unless
one has seen its effects.
Black damp, unlike white damp. Is
heavier than air, a nonexplosive gas
which may be detected by its peculiar
odor. Again, unlike the other, its ef
fect is to suffocate and extinguish lire.
This gas is so heavy and moves with
such a sluggish flow that occasional
ly, when miners have been trapped in
a mine following an explosion and
have detected the black damp creep
ing in upon them by its smell, they
have been able to stop its advance by
erecting dams or barricades along tho
floor, building them higher as the vol
ume of gas Inereast il and keeping the
air within their liltle inclosure com
paratively clean by rude improvised
fans.
Following an explosion, ihese two
gases become mingled and form a mix
ed gas, possessing all the dreaded
qualities of each, which N known as
"afli ." damp." and it is the mixture
of g.-iscs which 0< :fro t vs nay life that,
may remain foil i-ving a mine disaster

Late Riswg Birds.
A pair of singing birds had been ad-
I vertised for sale.
"The property of a late rising fami
ly," the dealer stated.
"I wound up with that clause," he
said, "so possible purchasers would
j not be scared off" by the prospect of
an unearthly chattering at 5 o'clock in
the morning. Birds can be trained to
keep any kind of hours. If they are
brought up by a family of nighthawlcs
they learn togo to bed at midnight
and get up at 0 a. in., along with the
rest of the folks, but if they are tuck
ed In right away after supper they
wake up the neighborhood at a cor
respondingly early hour the next morn
ing. It is advisable for any person
who is likely to lie abed until noon to
inquire into the early training of a
bird before buying."—New York Sun.
American Golf.
Certainly you are in good luck as a
golfer if you goto America at all, for
they are gloriously hospitable in that
land, and. so far as I could see, the
idea that some have here—that the
American's notion of tho object of
playing a game is purely to win It,
not to enjoy the playing—is perfectly
mi i!;cn. I never had the impression
in ■re strongly anywhere of being in

ing the game for pleasure, not f'>r the

HE PUNISHED GRANT.
The Cadet Was Guilty of Dismounting
Without Leave.
While a student at West Point U. S.
Grant excelled In mathematics and
horsemanship. He jumped his horse
over a bar five feet six inche3 high,
which made a record for the academy
and a close second to the highest jump
ever recorded in America. He receiv
ed little houor for some of his efforts,
however, notably In the case recalled
by Nicholas Smith In "Grant, the Man
of Mystery." But perhaps the humor
of It reconciled hi in.
The riding master was one Ilersh
berger, "an amusing sort of tyrant,"
| and on one occasion, whether seriously
112 or as a joke, he determined to "take
down" the young cadet
At the exercise Grant was mounted
j on a powerful but vicious brute that
; the cadets fought shy of and was put
1 at leaping the bar
1 The bar was placed higher and high
er as he came round the ring till it
passed tho record. The stubborn rider
would not say "'enough," but the horse
was disposed to shy and refuse to
I make the leap. '
| Grant gritted his teeth and spurred
I at it, but just as the horse gathered for
j the spring his swelling body burst the
1 girth, and the rider and saddle tumbled
| into the ring.
Half stunned, Grant gathered him
j self up from the dust only to hear the
I "strident, cynical voice" of Hershber
j ger calling out:
"Cadet Grant, six demerits for dis
j mounting without leave!"
BEAT HIM TO THE STATION.
I The Message That Got There Before j
the Patrolman Did.
"When I was a patrolman," says a
j prominent detective, "there used to be
! a sergeant on the force who had it in
I for me. He reported me for various
! delinquencies, and—well, lie's dead
1 now, and 1 won't say anything against
him. lie got sick, and it was reported
j at the station that he wasn't expected
; to live. So the boss called me aud
told me togo around and see if I
; coulil do anything for the old fellow, j
J I called at the house and asked If I !
j could see him. They let me in.l tip j
toed into the room where the sergeant ;
j was in bed aud said. 'The lieutenant j
sent me around to see how you were
1 getting along.'
"He spoke with difficulty, but I could
make out what he said. 'Go back,' he
grunted, 'and tell 'em that I'm getting
along line. The boys have fixed me up
all right, and I don't need anything.
I'm fueling better '
"So I went 1 nek to the station. I
; was stopped a c< uple of times on my i
! way and got in about half an hour !
later Then I ■: ide mv report 'He
says lie's better and doesn't need any- !
thing." says I. Thp lieutenant Jumped 1
up. 'Do yon moan to say that you |
i saw him?' says he '1 did,' says I. j
j 'And he told you he was all right?'
i 'Yes, sir.' "Yon blamed liar!' shouts
I the lieutenant "I got a message ten
] minutes ago that he was dead!'
I"And it was true. What do you
think of that old scoundrel trying to
get me in bad with his dying breath'/"

A Picture of Night.
Along tho high hedged lane John
I Strong swung, the June gloaming deep
ening into night. He loved to shovo
his face Into the night. He gloried in
the uncertainty of night, the iudefi
-1 nlteness of night, and his soul cried
j back a wild answer to the cry of the
j nighthawk and the owl Night is more
primitive than day; night is more
calamitous: night is a savage; night
I everywhere is the true aborigine. Day
j has taken on civilization Night hurls
the world back to the day of the war
I club, the flint arrowhead, the painted
visage. John Strong loved the night
[ with an almost malevolent love. In
■ the night he could hear the Valkyries
screaming, the witches riding their
broomsticks, the ghouls scraping the
mold from off the new burled coffin
John Strong swung along, his face set
to meet oncoming night.—Adventure.
Where He Drew the l-ine.

Sir Grevilic's Scotch estate, says Sir
William Kennedy iti "Sport In the

act eristic kindness, sent the old man
some hothouse grapes and a pineapple.

asked Thomas how lie liked,the fruit.
"Weel, Sir Grevllle," answered the
gamekeeper, "t'• • • plums was good, but
I 1 dinna think much of the turnip."
