A BOUNCING 150WLI)P:U.
The
Astonishinsr Caper of a Ten
Ton Rock.
How onna.etic.it Couple Were Surprii.e.1
by the Landing of the Mammoth Stone
on Their 1'renil.M Without
1'revlou WarniiiR.
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Arnold, of F.ast
lladdam. in the Connecticut valley,
were "at home" one day recently, but
hardly prepared to receive the stran
.r.rthat suddenly appeared on their
premises w ith a LL? racket and consid
erable style, says the New York hin.
M r. an.l M rs. Arnold, who were chattinef
in their kitchen, of a sudden heard u
roarin,". splitting, creaking an.l then
souirhin-,'. rumbling noise, and, dash
ing out of their abode into the front
yard, were just in time to receive
'their tfiiest there, which had come
through the vard fence, taking the
fence alonif witli it. Thereupon it duy
a hole in the middle of the yard and
planted itself therein, scttimr itself
easily in its socket. Mrs. Arnold threw
up her hands in almost speechless as
tonishment, and presently said: -oh.
Lord:" Her husband, like the d.x.r
ard. which is a small one and still al
most alt. .u'ctlur ih-cu pied by the visit
in" leviat han. was too full for utter
ance. The bitf o-uest is a ten-ton
bowlder, an.l it had come two or three
hundred feet front its seat on a dizzy
h'.elf at the summit of a mountain at
the rear of the Arnold habitation just
to make a . all. apparently. m the Ar
nolds. It came very quietly, travers
ing the distance noted in alout six
i.-conds. and in its track it ground up
rail and stone fences, knocked down
underbrush and trees, an.l plowed a
deep. raj-'I-'ed furrow in the wet and
r pon-TV soil between the base of the
hill and the yard. It thundered across
the open lots with frightful and irre
sistible fury. It Hew into the yard by
i slihtlv circuitous path, barely
missed slicing off a tfable of the dwell
ing, an.l crushed two lengths of hand
some white latticed fence into kin
dling. Now Mr. Arnold would like to
have some one tell him how to speed
the parting truest otT his plantation,
for it is no easy task, safely, to blast a
ten-ton lM.wl.ler under the eaves of a
man s house and haul away the frag
ments of it, and there is not enough ox
or horse power in Had. lam hamlet to
haul it away bodily.
I'or several years the jrreat Irowlder,
h -relied in its mountain eyrie, had
been threatening to tumble otT that
perch, hut the fact that it never had
.lone so encouraged the Arnold family
to hope that it always would maintain
its unstable and tot terini balance. It
is a spherical monster, that was set up
like a pear on its little end. and w hen
the tremendous and lon-continual
dowiixurs t his sprinr had loosened a
part, of its jrravel support on the side
of the declivi.y there was no lonyer a
; nb- tantial reason why the hi;,' fcllow
; h.ml.l stay up there alone on the
i.recioice. It fell about thirty feet
vertically, and ttien uivctt down an in
clined plane through a seeond-trrowt.il
forest with the roar of a cyclone. It
ripped up not less t han a dozen food
si.ed trees by their roots, while it-;
t linn. lerinjj onset nearly frightened all
the people in I laddtim. who feared that
a hurricane was upon them, out of
their wits. Mrs. Arnold was so badly
scared an.l unnerved that she left the
dinner dishes unwashed until after
supper.
The Had. lam bowlder is the bijrtrcst
one that ever attacked a Connecticut
household, but. its extraordinary caper
is by no means unparalleled in the
state. Not many years an'o a h litre erarf.
ei;rhintr three tons, fell off tlifshay
t'V hilltop at the rear of a pretty cot
tage on Laurel hill, in the heart of
Noiwich. ran down the steep hillside
an-1 jumped into the house by the way
of the roof. It went throiifh the roof
and second story without difficulty or
delay, and hopped into the middle of a
han.lst me lartre bed in the truest
cli.iuilwr. The bedstead was unable to
hold the stranger an.l kept itself in
tact, and the (.Teat n. .ck just wrapped
the whole thinjr, bedstead, ticks,
sheets, comfortables, pillows and pil
low -shams, about itself and went
down into the cellar, together with
the floor, carpet and bedroom furni
ture. When the man of the house ar
rived home from his work at sup-r
time his wife led him into the cellar
ami : howed him the bedroom still in the
company of the lxiwlder. It was a blue
franite bowlder of the kind most com
mon to Connecticut, hard as Hint,
seamless and cross-trraine.l. It took
the family, with the help of two hired
men. more than a week to pet all of
the intruder out of their home, an.l
cost them one hundred an.l fifty dol
lars to repair the mutilated antrle of
the house. Connecticut people have a
way of han!rin;r their houses under im
pendinir clilfs in this cratrtr.V. uphill
land sometimes, and so when the crack
of doom finally does come they are
more or less resigned to it.
A SUBLIME STRUCTURE.
The lloliet ami Mot! f'amoua of tha
Karly lluiialhiitt Shrine.
One of the most beautiful ns wel
rs the holiest ami most famous o;
the few surviving I'.ud.Ihist shrines o
lony aro is the Temple of the Tree. a.
bu.ldha-t.aya. near Patna. Cental
which was once the ccntcrof the llud.l
hist religion, and is still a place o.
pious piltf-rimatre. The temple is now
occupied by a brahmin college, but a
nioveiueut is on foot auioiija follower
of liu.l. Ida all the world over to cs
tablish a llu.l.lhist college there and
restore the ancient shrine to believers
of the primitive faith.
The temple is square, with a pro
jeetinff porch, and front its top soar:
skyward a pyramidal tower of nine
stories, all profusely eml.cllishcd with
a graceful upper pinnacle an.l trol.l
tinial. A small tower stands at each
corner of the roof of the lower struc
ture, an.l there is abroad walk alM.itt
the base of the trreat tower. Over the
porch w hich fronts the east a triangu

ltecher' Favorite Story.
A correspondent of the St. I .on is
(il.le-I)'iiiiK-rat relates what he de
clares was Henry Ward llcechcr's
favorite story, which he never tired of
tell inir. It may have la-en told In-fore.
It was the story of a traveling man
who went to church one Sunday and
fell asleep during the services. After
the preacher finished his discourse he
requested all those w ho wished to fro
to Heaven to ph-ase stand up, and all
arose but the travel'iutf man. An old
lady in sitting down accidentally
brushed up atrainst the traveling man
and woke him up. Just then the
preacher said: "All those that wish to
Ko to hell please stand up," and the
traveling man. scarcely awake and not
knowing w hat the audience was doinr,
stood up. lie looked around in a half
dazed way and saw no oue else but the
minister standing, but he finally said:
Parson, I don't know what you are
votinjr on, but jou and I seem to be in
hopeless minority."

CHOSE THE BIGGEST FORTUNE.
A Rasaian rrinrsi Who Found No Ilfli
cully In Trmnsfrrrlue; His Aa-tiuus.
Apropris of international marriages
wln'ivin the dot" is the Cr&t consid
eration, the pirl herself being1 merely
a ueeessary adjunct anJ her own per
sonality quite immaterial, the follow
inir btory printed by the New York
Tribune as coming' from Russia may
well point a moral and adorn a tale:
'A very rioh western family went
aboard not lonjr afro, accouipauied by
two Uau-rhU-rs and a friend, whose
lain and perhaps insignificant cxU'
rior jfave no evidence of her froldeii
v.orth ftr she hal a larpe fortune in
her own ritfht. Having leen left au
orphan the year before at the ace of
thirty, and Wing-of a meek and iuiet
di-.positiou, she had attached herself
to this particular fainilj', who were ol.l
friViid: of her parents, and more
throuprh force of circumstauces than
anythin;' else she had accompanied
thorn abroad, where to the outside
world she enacted the role of au la
i. 2-11 ifi cant friend of the familj-. The
two other girls, however, had very de
cided social aspirations, and as they
were very pretty and had the reputa
tion of being considerable heiresses
they were surrounded by impccui.ious
young noblemea in plent3F. At St.
IV-tersburg they even .ms,eeded in
capturing a young Kustiaa prince,
w ho. after remaining in undecided al
legiance to them loth for several
i i-l.s, finally fixed his affections upon
the older and handsomer of the two
si:.ters. Thereupon the youngest,
whose fancy had been more or less
captivated by the handsome pt-r-on
and equally attractive title of the
young Muscovite, but who had wit
c-nough to see that his attentions wer
anything but disinterested, took occa
sion to mention in the hearing of the
young man that their friend. Miss L.,
had a much larger fortune titan either
she or her sister could ever hope to
p.ssess, and that it was, moreover, en
tirely at her own disposal. The prince
heard, but gave no sign for several
days; then his attentions to that oldwst
si.-U-r re w noticeably fewer, and Door
fcliy little Miss S. looked up in pleased
surpri:c as the handsome young man
began to honor her with his notice.
Mi:,s Marplot was just beginning to
wonder whether she ought not to con
fess her share in the performance to
the parties interested, when one day
at "luncheon Miss S." own luaid
brought in a letter from her mistress
saying that the latter had been mnr
1 "u-d that moruing to IVince M. at the
American legation, and that under thai
eircu ustances it would be best that
the other legal formalities should be
completed at the Hotel , where she
had engaged rooms. Of course, as she
was an independent woman of thirty
there was nothing to be said. "Who
could have fancied she was so sly?"
sighed the would-be mother-in-law of
a prince.
USED HER TEETH.
A Woman's Weapon Hrought Her Into
Trouble at Court.
A gentleman with two bitten fingers
and a young lady w hose ears had been
boxed figured in the double role 01
plaintiff and defendant in a quwer case
that has just been tried in one of the
Paris law courts, according to a corre
spondent. The former is a married
man with two daughters, and the lat
ter, who is of very prepossessing ap
pearance, had entered the fainilj7 in
the capacity of a governess to the girls.
All went on well for a fortnight, but
the prevailing harmony was disturbed
on the arrival of a new cook, whom
the young ladj' greeted with the utter
I3' uncalled-for remark: "You are en
tering a dirty hole." This speech hav
ing Wen repeated to the mistress of
the house, it was decided then and
there that the offender should be sum
marily dismissed. The gentleman
asketl her into his study, paid her a
fortnight's salary and requested her to
sign a receipt. She took the money,
but declined to append her name to
the paper, and she was leaving the
room when he hurried to the door and
detained her.
A hot altercation ensued, varied by
the appearance on the scene of the
wife, who possessed herself of the
money. The husband then seized tin
governess by the arm for the purpose
of eictiug her, whereupon she bit two
of his fingers with such violence that,
maddened by the jiaiu, he laoxed her
ears. The young lady took action
against him for assault, claiming dam
ages to the amount of twenty pounds,
an. I on his side he brought a counter
charge on the strength of the bitten
fingers. Medical certificates were
handed in by the parties, an.l even
tually the court pronounced in favor
of the gentleman, condemning the
young lady with cannibal prelivlties
to the payment of a fine of two pounds,
and of damages to the same amount.
AIR-TIGHT PIES.
Tl Man with the ..iuj;rr llesrd Tells a
Story nt Karl Colorado lay a.
"Them fellers at Chicago is a makiu
a whole lot of money in the hash busi
ness." said the man with the ginger
beard, "but 1 jist laet they ain't none
of them got on to the scheme that a
f-ller out in Colorado did oncet."
The grocer sat looking dreamily out
the window, wondering when his com
mission was coming with the postmas
tcri.hip. says the Indianapolis Journal.
The man with the ginger beard noticed
his abt-- tract ion, got insulted, walked
across the street, thought better of it,
came back and went on as though
the grocer had exhibited the deepest
interest.
"It was jist like this," he said. "This
here feller made a thousand dollars in
one year a-sellin' air-tight pies."
"What is air-tight pies?"
"Air-tight pies," said the man with
the ginger lieard, "is pies which is air
tight. The feller made 'em this way.
Them pies was made out of two crusts,
and the fillin' was wind, which he
blowed into them till they v. as about
two inches thick. You see, he sold
them pies to the tourists, to be et tiff
the premises mostly when they was
out explorin'. Feller would buy the
pie, thinking it was the thickest pie
for tne money that ever he had bought,
and so it was; but when he come to bite
into it his teeth would come together
so .sudden that some of 'em was jist as
likely to break off as not. lut then
tendcrfect is made to be skinned, and
when the Lord sends one a good man's
way he is a sucker hisself if he don't
do him up as he should be did."
COMMERCIAL MATTERS.
T11 e consumption of cheese in Paris
reaches as much as 25,000,000 pounds
per annum.
A Tasmania prize merino ram, sold
recently for $i.5oo, gave 22 pounds of
vd when shorn. Another rain, not
accustomed to being housed and fed
until a few months before shearing,
dipped 22i pounds.
tJiiEAT HniTAlx, during the year ISO,
sjcnt ft, 175,000 in foreign poultry and
eggs. Iu 1ST the amount had increased
to f H,.V0,0t)J, and for 1S91 it amounted
to f -!s,8."0,000, which included U,0O0,0tM)
paid for importation of eggs and poultry
from Ireland.
. Ixivnoji Truth hopes that the recent
exjicrinient of shipping oranges direct
from Florida to England will prove suc
ccssf ul.becaase "the fruit is of exception
ally tine quality, and quite equal, if not
superior, to any of the many varieties
we now have in our own market."

SHOOT ONLY AT ONE THING.
Hunters as Well aa Oilier l'rofei..uaU
Have Their Secu.lt ies.
That there is such a thiiiif a- .'i
specialty airion- j.rofessional hunter,
will strike some jxs.ple as peculiar
The comuionly ueccptc.I idea is that i 1'
a man can shoot at one thinr he can at
another. Hut such is not the'ea .. sn
the St. l-ioilis ilole-Ieinoerat. Not
only that, but by tryiiifr all l.in.N ..1
frame a hunter may ruin himself f,.r
all. The man who hunts snijie i gen

If he sh.tots any other fame it if. r
his own use. He some days scn.U in
two hundred birds as the result of one
day's work. Strings of eighty, niin t .
undone hundred are not iiifre.jii.iil.
His harvst is at the season of the year
when the birds si-ll at tv dollar-, an 1
fi ftj' cents and three- dollars a lo,n
The duck hunter is also of a class i .
himself. This is particularly true ..!
the w-iMsl-iluck liuuhT. The chi. h. u
and quail hunters are ('cncrally the
same, and in larjre part they are l.:i..u n
as farmers. Ik-r and wild tin!.. .
also ('o to-rether. They are found in
the same section of country and at the
name time. Their turkeys avcra.'V
them over one dollar each, and In n
they run across a Hock- it is an a
matter to jret ten or twelve out of it.

to name himself at the opening 'f h -
