Upon being answered In the nf llrmatlve, nnd without snylng a word in explanation of their Intentions, the couple went to the depot and boarded a Delaware and Hudson train going north. Before the train started the conductor naked the little girl where she was going and she said to her uncle In New Jersey. He told her that the train was going to Cnrbpndale, nnd asked her for her ticket. She said she had not got her ticket yet, but had money to puy her fare. A young man who was at the depot and who noticed the children get on the train, suspect ing that something was wrong, got on Just as the train started and told the conductor of his suspicions. The train was stopped and the children ques tioned by the conductor, with tho result that they were put off and taken by the young man to their parents.

Ships That Ilnvo Met Tlioir I'ato When illhey Sonmod Perfectly Safo. From tho New York Sun. Every one admits that it Is danger ous to he a mnn-of-war's man In war time. Even in time of ppacc. at great gun practice, or while saluting, It Is a recognized fact that accidents happen, and such accidents do not cause so much astonishment as they tit tempor ary pity. But It there H ono place wh'oro a vessel is supposed popularly to bo safe, that place is tort. It need not be her homo pott; but, so long us a vessel Is In port. In tho minds of the public she is safe, yet, ns the recent disaster to the Maine shows, even port Is not always safe. In fact, some ot the great naval disasters In history oc curred In port. Probably the greatest accident on record, and certainly the most famous, was tho capsizing of the Royal George, a line of battleship of the British navy. It was .tho flagship of Rear Admiral Richard Kempenteldt. On Aug, 29, 17S2, as It lay offSpithead, at the mouth of the Thames, It was heeled, In order that a pipe might be repaired. Heel ing was u simple process; one broad side of guns was run from one side of the ship to the other, so that all the weight was on one side; this laid the ship over far enough to lay bare the end of the plpo. Heeling wasn't abso lutely safe, but the repairs were so simple that it wasn't worth while to dock the ship. So th'ey heeled tho Royal George. The ship had not been put out of commission, and practically all her of ficers and crew were aboard. Besides, the friends of many of the ship's com pany were on board, men, women and children, Including a large number of Jews. A land breeze sprang up, tho stays did not hold, and the great ship capsized, nearly S00 persons being drowned. The Roynl George carried 108 guns and was, one of the best ves bels In the royal navy. On June 2, 1859, the steamship East ern Monarch lay off Splthead, after a voyage from India, with 500 officers and men on board, most of whom were Invalids. That night she was burned, but providentially only eight persons lost their lives. On Dec. 22, 1875, Just three days before Christinas, H. M. S. Goliath, used as a training ship, lay in the Thames with about 500 officers, men, and boys, most of the boys being rescued from the slums of London. A lamp upset on the all-room lloor; but again fortune was on the sldo of man, nnd only twelve persons were burned to death. Sunday, March 24, 1S78, was an un pleasant day in parts of England. There was a snow-storm, which Is al ways unpleasant In England, and then there came thunder and purple light ning, and, to top off, n furious squall raged for a short time. Just before the squall H. M. S. sailing frigate Eury dlce, used us a training ship, sailed up along the Isle of Wight. She had about .100 men and boys on board, and came In with a good breeze, most of her sails drawing and her ports open. The boys were crowding the decks, happy to see England again after u long voy age from the Bermudas. Off Dunnose head, near Ventnor, that snow squall struck her, and she capsized. Ventnor is a watering place, winter ns well as summer; and right before the eyes of hundreds of persons unable to help, the old frigate went down. Hardly any one was saved. Captain Hare, Lieu tenant Tabor, the executive officer, and nearly every other person on board was drowned almost within reach of land at the entrance of the harbor for which they had hoped. Forty-five years ago Captain Cowper Coles, of the British navy. Invented what he called a turret ship, a vessel to carry few guns, but those of large calibre, In movable towers on the deck. Ericsson had the same Idea, and car ried It out in his Monitor, but Captain Coles was not able to embody his plans In a ship until nearly fifteen years had passed. Finally the Lords commission ers for executing the office of Lord High Admlrnl accepted the captain's plans, unci II. M. S. Captain wns the result. It was a full-rigged Iron ship, armored, with auxiliary steam power. High bulwnrks were Intended to be let down when the vessel was cleared for action, uncovering tho two turrets, Tho ship was launched In 1869 and had trouble frmi the first. Finally she seemed to Ind herself" and Joined the Channel fleet. On Sept. 7. 1870, com manded by Capt. Hugh llurgoyne, hho was sailing through the Bay of Hlseay, She carried a company of IS persons, and Captain Coles and Mr. didders, a son of the first lord of the admiralty, who were passengers, Hindi the total number on board 4H0. At 12:13 a. in. a squnll sprang up and struck the top. heavy ship. The bulwarks were down, the ship heeled over and never righted. Of the 490 persons on board only eigh teen escaped, and when tho court-martial sat to try some one for negligence in losing tho vessel, the only person they could try was James May, the gunner! 'Every ollloar was lost. The captnln wns not In harbor; but site might as well have been; she was alone, thero was no danger of collision, her ammunition didn't explode, Seem ingly she, was as safo nH a ship well could be.

Common soda is all right In Its place and Indispensable In the kitchen and for cooking and washing purposes, but it was never Intended for a medicine, and people who use It as such will some day regret It, We refer to the common use ot soda lo relievo heartburn or sour stomach, a habit which thousands of people prac tice ulmost dally, and ono which is fraught with danger," moreover the soda only gives temporary relief and in the end the stomach trouble gets worse nnd worse. The soda acts as a mechanical Irri tant to the wads of the stomach nnd bowels and cases nre on record where it accumulated in the Intestines, caus ing death by Inllnmmntlon or periton itis. Dr. Hnrlandson recommends as the safest and surest euro for sour stom ach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent prep aration sold by druggists under tho nnme of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tablets are large 20 grain loz enges, very pleasant to taste and con tain the natural acids, peptones nnd digestive elements essential to spod digestion, nnd when taken after meals they digest the food perfectly and promptly before It has time to ferment, sour and poison the blood and nervous system. Dr, Wuerth states that ho Invariably uses Stuart's Dyspesla Tablets in all cases of Btomach derangements and llnds them a certain cure not only for sour stomach, but by promptly digest ing the food they create n healthy ap petite, Increase flesh and strengthen tho action of the heart and liver. They are not a cathartic, but Intended only for stomach diseases and weakness and will be ound reliable In any stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach. All druggists .sell Stuart's Dyspesla Tablets nt CO cts. per package. A little book describing all forms of stomach weaknesses nnd their cure mailed free by addressing the Stuart Co. of Marshall, Mich. the Royal Gearge were beaten down by no great storms. It was ns though the finger of Providence had pointed at those three ships and at nothing else. Not quite three years after the Eury dlce capsized, th'ero was a boat race on the Thames up In Canada. The day was Queen Victoria's birthday, May 24, 1881. The day was clear, it was a holiday, and tho raca was exciting; so tlv steamboats accompanying the racers wero crowded. Tho Victoria, had on her docks every soul she could curry; but everybody behaved well, and there was no trouble and no danger until an exciting part of a race caused the crowd to rush to one side of the boat. Then she capsized. She had 700 persons on board, nnd more than 300 died. Tho suddenness of this dlsnster was appalling. A traveller driving In a carriage saw the crowded Victoria standing after the racing: boat.j, tho road ran lehlnd a low hill, cutting off all view of the river for a hundred yards or so. When the driver had passed the bluff and again saw tho river the Victoria had capsized. There aro countless other Instances of such 'strange providential happen ings; they all go to show that a man Is as safe anywhere as he Is unywhere else, and that when his time Is up he must go. SOMETHING LIKE IT. From the Chicago Dally Tribune. A worried-looking stranger stepped up to a crossing pollcemun yesterday morn ing nnd said: "Will you kindly direct me to the Mat thew, Murk, Luke and John railway depot?" "What?" The stranger repeated his request. "Thero Isn't any such dppot In this town," replied the officer. "What are you glvin' me?" "That isn't the nume of it, of course," rejoined tho other, "but It's something like it. My head's nil tangled up this morning, and 1 can't get anything right." A sudden thought struck the policeman. "Do you mean the Dig Four depot?-' he asked. "That's It!" exclaimed the stranger, de lightedly. "I was sure I'd know It if I heard It again. Whero Is It?" The officer started him In the right di rection and then went Into a brown study. At the end of half an hour he emerged from it and said to himself In nn audible voice: "I wonder If that guy wasn't havln' fun with me!" IIOU.VOAUIES OP THE UNIVERSE Professor Newcomb says that cvidenco Is accumulating which points to a prob ability of our actually being able to guess at boundaries of the unlverso through our powerful modern telescopes. Of this the general foim Is known It 1ms the shape of nn enormous disk, the solar sys tem being not far from the center, It may bo said that this disk, so Incon ceivably huge, has u dlumeter four or live times Its thickness. Tup length of tho diameter cannot bo spoken of with any great accuracy, however, because tlm precise distance ot many of tho stars Is not known. Munv of the stars brought into vlow by the powerful glasses do not look small because they ure farther awny. but on account of their Inferior size. It Is thought Unit there nro no moro be yond. The professor predicts that fifty years hence a great deal more will be known on this subject than Is known at present. With the naked eye about 5.00) stars can bo seen, but with the most powerful telescope about 50.000,000 nre vis ible, and there may be millions moro thero observed.
