    THE MAJOR'S DEC'IKIOX.
"Well, as he has inuiried to 8uit
himself without my approval, he can
no longer expect anything from me.
Having wade a bed to suit Lim, let
Lim lie on it."
Major MartlnJale fjlJed ip a cer
tain obnoxious letter, as he made this
mental remark, and laving it in a lit
tle gilded letter rack beside him, in
company w ith a tailor's bill, a ticket
t some forthcoming concert, and a
printed circular concerning "insur
ance policies," went deliberately on
with his breakfast.
He was a handsome, elderly gen
tleman, slightly bald, with bright
brown eyes, straight Iloman features
and one of those square, Crmly
moulded mouths which betoken a
decided tendency to have one's own
wav. And as he drank his coffee,
and daintily manipulated his French
rolls, broiled birds, and fresi straw
berries, served in a garniture of their
own leaves, he mused over tbe con
tents of the same letter.
'It's a g:eat mittake to allow ser
vants to bring in one's correspond
ence at meal times," reflected Major
Martindale. "It's almost sure to in
tcrft-re with one's digestion. I'll never
read another letter at breakfast time!
What could possess my son to go and
get married in this abrupt, nonsensi
cal way ? Says he feared it would
be impof.-iblc to gain my consent
Well, he had good reasons for his
fears, but he'il find it still more irn
pns.iible after marriage than before.
lie knows mv ideas, and if he don't
chose to conform to 'em it's his busi
ness, not mine."
Aud so, after finishing the straw
Irrrits, and daintily cleansing his
flljert- nailed Eugers in a ruby color
ed finger bowl, Major Martindale
wrote three words on a thick, gray
sheet ef note paper, inclosed it in an
envdupe, aflixed a stamp, and gave
it to the servant to post. And the
tl-ree words Were these:
'Consider your.-elf disinherited."
That was the way in which Major
Martindale disposed of his only son.
Not that he did not love Harry
the bright, frank boy, who was all
th'it was left of his young wife, the
one romantic dram and tender mem
err of his lifetime. And it is surpris
ing how obstinate a man can be when
he once turns h's full uttcntion to the
business.
"She is the niece of one of the lady
boarders. Martin, I think they call

"Is that all you have been with

"That's all."
"Then," said the major, "I shall
ask her to let me adopt you. Will

She threw her arms around his
neck and sobbed upon his breast.
"Ho you really love me ? Io you

"Forever."
"Yes, forever!" (Sickness you see

satin-pillowed invalid chair, which
had been wheeled out into the sun

"Of "course you are, dearest."

The suicide was a dentist about
twenty-eight years old, and lived at
South Fifth avenue and Houston
street. Senator Norton knew him
well, for he had been a constituent of
his. He was a dentist of large and
lucrative practice, but of late, owing
t) family luatters, neglected it and
himself." As soon as Mr. Norton and
his partner, Mr. Murray, realized the
intention of the man in the water
they exercised every effort to rescue
him, but in vain.

The Only Slnerar CIerkhlp nt
Alb-tor.
Tho only man known to receive
pay without performing his daily
labor is the present deputy controller,
Philip Phelps. His case is a remar
kable one, as indicating the care
which states sometimes extend to
faithful public servants -the only
element of sentiment in the whole
ranse of public business at the cap.
tab Philin Phelns was a man of
forty years of age, when, having
served" for years in the lower grades
about tho controller's office, be was
appointed deputy controller by Wm.
L. Marcy in 1827. He has remained
deputy controller erer since, serving
faithfully under Silas Wright, Aza
riah C. Flagg, Millard Filmore until
that official resigned the position for
the ice Presidency Y asnington
Hunt. Sanford PI Church, Lnc!us
Ilobinson, and the other famops Onan
ciers of -the state, up to the present
incumbent. In 18G9. having then
served over forty years, he was com
pelled to absent himself from his
desk by reason of old age and feeble
ness, and bebas remained away ever
6ince. But on the recommendation
of Controller Allen bis salary and
position were continued to hira, and
the office of secoud deputy was cre
ated to perform the duties which this
ared official was no longer able to
perform. At tbe end of every quar
ter Lis warrant is carried to mm by
a meisenger, he signs it with a flour
ish, inquires anxiously after affairs in
the office, expresses a fear that ne
cannot get aiound for some time yet,
and takes bis instalment of pay with
a sigh. In consideration of special
service performed by Mr. Phelps
Vvben he was on active duty, by
which tho state was saved $20 000,
tbe legislature, in 1357, passed an
act entitled, "An act to provide suit
able compensation for Philip Phelps
for his faithful service as deputy con-
troller," testimonials of regard not
often found anions' the statutes.

"Quite so."
"Then you may try ; but take my

Major Martindale heard these

loud, as he might have heard tbe
thunder of the waves on the beach
outside, or the ringing of tbe church
bells, without at all connecting them
with himself. Strange what a world
of dreams and shadows bis soul and

lint one day he came back out of
the darkness, and the immensity, and
the restb-ss whirling to and fro'of the
waves of life, weak and white', and

The romantic young Kiug of Hava
na is about to see one of his royal
freaki carried out if human skill is
equal to the task. The project is
among the widest of his ideas, name
ly, to commemorato the acting of
their famous passion play by the vil
lagers of Ober-ammergau, by tbe
erection of a collossal marble group
40 feet in height upon the summit of
the Zugspitze, 10,000 feet above tbe
sea, at a spot overlooking the village
and the place where the passion play
is performed. The statuary itself is
nearly finished, The sculptor, Hal
ig, has spent upon it two years of pa
tient labor. The crucified Cbnst oc
cupies the centre of the group, the
Virgin Mary on the right, on the left
M. John, each resting on a socle fitly
inscribed, and all three upon a com
mon pedestal, en which are carved
the arms of Havana. Hut now it is
that the diJicuity begins. These
marble forms cannot be transported
in sections, like bronzes, buttley
have to be packed in imnieusc bo?es,
whose frame work is of beams, and
enormous carriages have been espe
cially built to convey them. There
lie fifty miles of mountain roads be
tween Munich and Ober-ammergau,
and a part of the journry is across
the Kloster-L'ttal, whose pass is the
dread cf wagoners; while the road
to the summit of the Zugspitze, just
finished, is .unsafe. All the bridges
on the way were too narrow or too
weak and had to be rebuilt, and when
allclse is readv a street locomotive is
to do the draft wcrk. The extraor

The thuuder storms this year have
btcu very destructive, tho lightning
having killed a large number of per
sons and destroyed many buildings.
A careful authority asserts that i
lightning rod should be three-fourths
of na inch thick, made of copper and
iron in the proportion of twelve to
two and-a-half, oue end being four
feet ia the moist ground and the other
from six to eight feet above the high
est part of the building. The greater
part of its length below should con
sist of iron, surmounted at the top
by a sharp cone of brass and finally
eud io a number of vlatinum needles,
the whole being riveted or sotdered
together, so as to render the conduct
ing connection of the parts perfect.
The part of tbe lightning conduc
tor forming the connection between
the red and :he ground, should be a
prismatic or cylindrical rod of iron
or a strap of copper; sometimes a
rope of iron or copj or wire is used.
The points r.t tbe top may be protect
ed from rust by gold leaf and the
whole rod painted with black paint,
having lampblack for its chief ingre
dient. A good rod may be secured,
without danger to tbe building, by
wooden clamps with iron staples.
Gold insulators are useless, for when
wet they become conductors.
It is recommended by some that as
the greatest number of thunder
storms ia this country come from the
northwest, the conductors should be
placed on the side of the building ex
posed to their first approach. It is
more important, however, that very
prominent elevated points of a large
building bhould bo protected. It is
very uncertain how large an area a
rod of a given height can protect
Different French eleetrieians have va
riously rated it cs a circular space of
radius from one to three times the
height of the rod above the highest
point to which it is attached; but lit
tle confidance can be placed in these
conclusions. The opposite electrici
ties which produce the discharge are
not uniformly distributed, and when
they rush together they may not be
under the influence of a rod directed
ia tho air ia its vicinity. Hence the
importance of points upon the rods
along the salient parts of buildings
they are designed to protect The
matter of this article as based upon
reliable data, and of points here sub
mitted are the opinions cf prominent
electricians who are considered the
highest authority on the subject.
Whether these observations put to
practice will prove entirely satisfacto

meantime let investigation ami obser
vation go hand in hand.

call "that glow," alluding to tbe

entirely forgot that in many cases.

instead of being followed by "tbe

Walter P. JaDney, geologist of the
Dlack Hills expedition, in a letter to
tbe Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
dated June 22. says, while examin
ing the gravel deposits at the north
bend cf Castle creek, he found gold
in small quantities in bars or terraces
of alluvial quartz gravel, resting ou
a bed of rock, about tea feet above
the present level of the stream. The
area of these bars was nuite limited.
The gold which they contained had
evidently been furnished by the
quartz veins traversing the slates
along the stream. There was con
siderable excitement anions: the sol
diers and teamsters about gold on the
arrival ot the expedition on rench
Crces, but as no one obtained even
uy several hours' hard labor more
than a few cents worth of gold dust.
none of the command was afterwards
seen working lor the precious metal.
About fifteen miners have located
claims oa the creek. The renorta
they give of the richness of the grav
el bars is greatly exaggerated. Mr.
Jaaney's prospecting shows a gen

One full-blown in a white embroid
ercd skirt, with a plaited waist,
looked like a Venetian woman of the
Renaissance. Above the divine soft
ncss of the satin you saw her curved
and pearly neck, and on theb!onde
tresses of ber abundant hair a simple
band of floating lace. She seemed
tall and straight as a Diana ia tbe
long folds of her native dress; her
bodice ornamented with silver em
broidery, delicately suggested tbe
thought of a dasby hussar. She
walked rapidly, and her dragging
train trembled like tbe drapery of a
goddess, while the boquet of brilliants
in her hair flashed like swordblades.
Another, frail, slight, the face pro
jecting, with a thin nose, trembling
lips, pale eyes, and hair all in disor
der beneath her diamonds, seemed to
emit flashes and sparks from every
part of her person. Seated or stand
ing, she never seemed to touch the
ground. The inward mettle, the
irrepressible outbursts aad contor
tions of her nervous organization,
sent momentary shivers through her
nervous frame! About this slight
neck ripples a row of diamonds a
circle of liviogeyes of magic serpents.
These women chat and seemed de
lighted with their conversation.

Belfast, July 7. The shooting
for the cup presented by the Mayor
and citizens of P.elfast took place to
day. Colonel Gildersleeve won the
enn over twenty-four opponents.
Belfast, July 7. Tbe contest for
the Mayor and Citizens' cup was
held on tho Range on Lord Dufferin's
grounds. Tho distance was 1,000
yards. Each man was allowed five
shots, the highest possible score be
ing twenty. Several thousand per
sons witnessed the shooting.
AH the members of the American
team and the reserves took part
The contest was exciting, especially
towards tbe close. The re-u!t was
doubtful up to tho last sb. t. Colo
nel Gildersleeve, Mr. Lee, oi Pelfast,
and Mr. Johnson, of Dublin, made
remarkably fine shots. When all
had fired their five shots, tho scores
wero announced as follows:
Gildersleeve, American, 19, Lee,
of Belfast, 19; Fulton, American, 17;
Johnson, of Dublin, 18; Druce, Amer
ican, 17; McKenna, of Dublin, 17;
Wylie 10.
The crowd cheered the announce
ment with great enthusiasm, 'lhe
t t ' bet wepn America aril Ireland
wa then shot off. According to the
terms agreed upon tho men had
three shot3 apiece. Each shot was
watched with breathless interest.
The result was again a tie, Gilder
sleeve and Lee's scores being ex
actly alike. Each made two bull's-
eyes and a centre, counting eleven.
The excitement rose to icver ui

As an illustration of the extreme
dryness of the soil during the dry
season iu Brazil, it is stated that in
the month of June all vegetation
ceases, the seeds being then ripe
or nearly so'. In July the leaves
begin to turn yellow and fall off; in
lugust an extent of many thousands
of square leagues presents the aspect
of a European winter, but without
snow, tne trees Ijcing completely
stripped of their leaves ; the plants
that have grown ia abundance in the
wilderness drving up, and serving as
a kind of hay for the sustenance of
numerous herds of cattle. This is
the period most favorable for. the
preparation of the coffco that grows
upon the mountains. The beans are
picked and laid on the ground, which
gives forth no moisture, but on the
contrary absorbs it, and being sur
rounded by an atmosphere possessing
tbe same desiccating properties, the
coffee dries rapidly without moulding.

The Buffalo Courier says: A day
or two since a clerk In one of tbe tel
egraph offices in town being the last
1 3 leave for his dinner, found the door
locked, as is usual, but, as i3 not usu
al, discovered that he had left his key
iu another coat pocket, two or three
blocks away, at hi3 hotel. The win
dows were two stories up, and he did
not exactly see the point of an exit
that way. And every minute his
dinner was growing cold, and his
temper correspondingly hot. He rat
tled the door, tried to pick the lock
with a shingle nail, and repeated
softly to himself choice extracts from
profane history, but there he stayed
and relief seemed appallingly remote.
Did he wait there till hi3 brother
clerks returned fram their seven
courses, from soup to dousbnuts, to
et him out? Xot he. An idea struck
him, and the impression left bore its
fruits. He telegraphed to St. Thom
as, Canada, had it repeated to De
troit, .Michigan, whence it was re
turned, according to accompanying
instructions, to the Atlantic and
Pacific ollice here on Main street, the
result of which was to send a boy up
to his room after the key and bring
it down to his office to release him.
