Brown (seeing a blind man about to en

touch of a blind man is ? When nature
deprives us of one sense she mnkes
amends by bringing the other senses to
extraordinary acutencss. Let me illus

of sugar and let him feel of it, and
you'll see how quickly he'll tell what

The men With the rig-.
A few days ago two men, who were
afterward found to be Detroiters, arrived
in a town about fifty miles to the west of
this, leading a pig. It was perhaps big
enough and heavy enough to be called a
hog, but they termed it a pig, and as
they turned it over to the care of the
landlord at whose inn they proposed to
rest for the night, one of the men ex
plained :
"Be awful careful with that pig. He's
a daisy a new breed just from Scotland.
We've sold him to a farmer out here for
$50, and we don't want anything to hap
pen to him.
The landlord took the pig up, and
then began to think and cogitate and sus
pect. When the strangers had gone to
bed he called in some of the boys, and
said:
"I've twigged tho racket; them two
fellows are sharpers and that s a guess
ing pig. To-morrow they will give you
a chance to guess at his weight at ten
cents a guess, and you'll be cleaned out
only you won't. As the fellows sleep
we will weigh their pig and beat their
game."
Nobody slept until the pig was taken
over to the scales and weighed. He
pulled down 170 pounds to a hair, and
the villagers went home and hunted up
their nickels and dreamed of pigs and
scales and sharpers through the remain
der of the night.
Next morning the pig was led around
in front, and, before starting off on his
journey, one of the owners remarked to
the assembled crowd :
" Gentlemen, I'm going to weigh this
pig directly. Maybe some of you would
like to guess on his weight? I'll take
allgueuses at ten cents each, and who
ever hits it gets fifty couts."
This provoked a large and selected
stock of winks and smiles, but no one
walked up until the pig man said that
any one person could guess as many
times as he cared to, provided a dime ac
companied each guess. Then a rush 6et
in. Three or four merchants put up fifty
guesses each. A justice of the peace
took thirty. A lawyer said about
twenty would do for him. Before there
was any let up in the guessing about 600
had been registered and paid for. Every
soul of 'em guessed at 170 pounds. It was
curious what unanimity there was in the
guessing, but the pig men didn't seem to
notice it. When all had been given
a chance the pig wag led to the scales,
and lol his weight was exactly 174
pounds I
- "You see, gentlemen," explained the
spokesman, "while this animal only
weighs 170 pounds along about 11 o clock
at night, we feed him about five pounds
of corn meal iu the morning before
weighingl You forgot to take this mat
ter into consideration 1"
Then somebody kicked the landlord,
and ho kicked the justice, and the jus
tice kicked a merchant, and when the
pig men looked back from a distant hill
the whole town was out kicking itself
and throwing empty wallets into the
river. Detroit Free Press.

"Oh, Maurice," said a Clifton girl to
her lover, "did you know papa had

Maurice started and looked around
anxiously, even nervously.
"No, darling." he replied, with a slight
two-stop tiemulo in his voice.
"He has, Maurice, and he knows so
many tricks, too.
"Your papa or the dog, darling ?" he
inquired, in an abstracted manner.
"The dog, of course, naughty boy,''she
answered, playfully tapping him on his

her lily white hand.
"When did he secure this valuable ani

"Last Monday morning, dear, he

Witch Finding in India.
Tho ordeal by water is universal among
tho barbarous Non-Aryan tribes of Cen
tral India, from the Bhccls in the west
country to tho wild men in tho almost
unexplored jungles of Bustar and tho fat
cast, towards the Bay of Bengal. Hera
is a description of one water test, tnken
a few years ago from tho mouth of an
expert witch tinder among tho Bheels,
who got into a scrape for applying it to
an old woman; "A bamboo is stuck up
in tho middle of any piece of water.
The accused is taken to it, lnyl
hold of it, and by it descends to the
bottom. In tho meantime ono of the
villagers shoots an arrow from his bow,
and another runs to pick it up and bring
it back to the place whence it was shot.
If the woman is nblo to remain under
water until this is done she is declared
innocent, but if sho comes up te breatho
before the arrow is returned into tho
bowman's hand sho is a true witch and
must bo swung as such." In the case
from which this account is taken tha
woman failed in the test, and was con
sequently swung to and fro, roped up to
a tree, with a bandage of red pepper on
her eyes; but it is obvious that this kind
of ordeal, like almost all primitive or
deals, is contrived so as to depend for its
effect much upon the manner in which it
is conducted, whereby tho operator'
favor becomes worth gaining. A skillful
archer will shoot just as far as he chooses.
Another crdeal is by heat, as for in
stance, the picking of a coin out of burn
ing oil. But the question extraordinary
is by swinging on a sacred tree, or by
flogging with switches of a particular
wood. Swinging before an idol, with a
hook through the muscles of tho back, is
the well-known rite by which a Hindu
devotes himself to the god, and Hogging
with rods from a sacred tree manifestly
adds superhuman virtue to the ordiuary
effect of a vigorous laying on. In 1805
a woman suspected of bringing cholera
into the village was deliberately beaten
to death with rods of the castor oil tree,
which is excellent for puraring witchcraft.
It is usual also to knock out the front
teeth of a notorious witch; the practice
appears to be connected with the belief,
well known in all countries, that witches
assume animal shapes; for in India they
are supposed occasionally to transform
themselves into wild beasts, a super
stition analogous to our European lycan
thropy. Shaving the heads of femala
witches is very common among the tribes
much infested by sorcerers: it is employed
as an antidote, not merely as a degrading
punishment, so that one is tempted to
trace its origin to some recondite notion
of power residing in the hair; and thin
even back toward Samson, to Circe with
the beautiful locks, and to the familial
devils of early Christian times, who are
said to have a peculiar attachment foi

Revolting Practices.
A Madagasgar letter to the Sprincfield
liepumican, says: In this land, wheie su
perstition, treachery and murder predom,'
mate, it is not strange that funerals art
continually occurring, and that the
strangest and most revolting perform'
ances arc indulged iu upon these occa
felons. The first funeral which .'! wit
nessed was that of a man of no particu
lar rank or position. As the corpse was
being carried along it was followed by
a rabble of mourners who were all
screaming and yelling. At intervals
along the road the corpse was placed on
the ground and a series of athletio
games were commenced, in which speat
exercises were the most prominent. When
the place of burial was reached the
corpse was thrown naked into a shallow
grave and then covered up with earth.
A. largo pile of rocks was then placed
over the grave. Some pieces of silver
and a few other articles were buried
with the body in order to give the ghost
a start in the next world. When people
of rank are buried the ceremony is more
extensive and somewhat different. At
the death of a chief the greater pari: of
his cattle are killed, and his wives are
obliged to cut off their hair and other
wise disfigure themselves. A coflin is
made by cutting a log somewhat longei
than the corpse. The log is split length
wise, hollowed out, and the body placed
within. The funeral ceremonies are
never complete until the succeeding chief
has captured a town or has fought a
battle in which blood has been shed.
Whenever a sorcerer, or person of more
than ordinary distinction departs this
life, his body is allowed to decompose
before burial. It is covered with aro
matic substances and placed on a bam
boo platform in the sun, where it is left
for several days. The decomposition
produces a putrefying liquid which is
caught in earthern vessels placed under
the platform. This horrible liquid is
then divided among those present. Each
receives the liquid in his hand and
quickly rubs it all over his body. After
this revolting performance the body is
wrapped in a kind of cloth and buiied
with various ceremonies.

WALKING IN THEIR SLEEP.
BOMB REMARKABLE TRXAKS
or
SOMNAMBULISTS.
A German Who Write loetry In III
Meep Cnrlona fame of an Italian
Nobleman.
A story is told of a German student
a somnambulist who on ono occasion
arose from his sleep and wrote some
verses on a subject which ho had vaiuly
wrestled with when awake.
"Aro many such stories told of som
nambulists ?" asked an Atlanta Constitu
tion man of a well-known physician.
"There are," was tho reply. Thero is
a case on record of a man at Milledge-
ville who used to arise in his sleep and
go out on the roof of his house and walk
along where it would navo Deen utterly
impossible for him to havo stood had ho
been awake. I have heard of a man who
was accustomed to go down tho steep
side of a mountain to a creek, undress,
and go in and taken bath. lie would
then como out, dress and return homo,
all the time being wholly unconscious of
whnt he was doing."
" hat is somnambulism i '
"I don't know. The somnambulist
seems to dream, and to havo tho power
to act that a sleeping man has not.
Some of them relate as dreams what they
do when they take these night walks.
Thero is a story told of a young nobleman
in tho city of Brcnstein who was observed
by his brother to riso in his sleep, put on
his cloak, and, having opened tho case
ment, to mount by tho help of a pulley
to tho roof of tho building. 1 hero ho
was seen to tear in pieces a magpie's nest
and wrap tho young birds in his cloak,
llo returned to his apartment, having
placed his cloak by him with tho birds
in it. In the morning he awoke and re
lated the adventuro as having occurred
dream, and was greatly surprised
when ho was led to the roof of the tower
and shown tho demolished nest, as well
as the magpies concealed in his cloak."
Do somnambulists always go with
their eyes open?"
"lhcy usually do. I havo noticed
that actresses who play 'Lady Macbeth'
all nccept that idea. Did you never see
a woman in the sleep-walking scene in
'Lady Macbeth?'"
The reporter remarked that he had
been quite horrified on more than one
occasion as a pair of glassy eyes stared
vacantly over the footlights.
"Those eyes in tho real somnambulist
cannot see. They look, but they do not
see; they have cars, and hear not."
Ono of tho most interesting cases is re
ported by Muratori. Says ho :
' 'Signor Augustin was an Italian noble
man, dark, thin, melancholy and cold
blooded, addicted to the study of tho
abstract sciences. His attacks occurred
nt the waning of tho moon, and were
stronger in autumn and winter than in
summer. An cye-witutss gives tho fol
lowing description of them:
"One evening toward the end of Octo
ber we played at various games after
dinner. Signor Augustin took a part in
them along with the rest of the company,
and afterward retired to repose. At 11
o'clock his servant told us that his mas
ter would walk that night, and that we
might come and watch him. I examined
him after somo time with a candle in my
hand. He was lying upon his back, and
sleeping with open, staring, unmoved
eyes. We were told that this was
a sure sign that ho would walk
in his sleep. I felt his hands and
found them extremely cold, and his
pulse bent so slowly that his blood
seemed not to circulate. It was about
midnight when Signor Augustin drew
aside tho bed curtains with violence,
arose, and put on his clothes. I went up
to him and held the light under his eyes.
He took no notice of it, although his
eyes were wide open and staring. He
fastened on his sword and warmed him
himself in an arm-chair by the tire, lie
went to his wardrobe, took out some
things, got others disarranged, put them
iu order again, locked the door, and put
the key in his pocket. He then went
into a court and caught and bridled his
horse. He appeared confused when he
did not find the saddle in its accustomed
place, but finally mounted tho horse and
rode to another side of the court and tied
his horse. From there he went into the
house and walked into a parlor, where
he played several airs on a harpsichord.
After moving about for two hours ho
went to his room and threw himself on
his bed, where he slept nine or ton hours.
The servants declared that they could
only put an end to his paroxysms by
tickling him under the soles of his feet,
or by blowing a trumpet iu his ears."
Negretti was a servant about twenty
four years old. and a sleep-walker from
his eleventh year, but his attacks only
occurred in March. He would arise in
his sleep, arrange the table, stand back
of his master's chair long enough to give
him time to at, and then clear the cloth.
lie would then lock up the house and ur
range for going to bed, and after doing
so would be awakened. He could re
member nothing of his somnambulistic
actions. He would awaken when water was
thrown in his face, and would be faint and
stupid for some time. He acted from
force of habit, and if a door through
which he had passed was afterward shut he
would run against it when he returned.
If he carried a candle and a bottle was
substituted he would not know the dif
ference. It is said of Negretta that he sat
down to eat a bowl of salad which he
had prepared. It was taken from him
and some strongly seasoned cabbage put
iu its place; but he ate without perceiv
ing the difference. He sniffed ground
coffee in pla-je of snuff, which lie had
demanded. Other sleep-walkers have
been known to detect these deceptions.
In general, somnambulists do not hear
persons who talk aloud in their presence.
A young priest used to arise and write
his sermons in his sleep, reading them
aloud after doing so, and making cor
rections and interlineations with the
most remarkable accuracy, even correct
ing grammatical errors and incorrectly
spelled words. Ho also composed
music and wrote it while asleep, putting
in cleffs, sharps and flats.
Somnambulists have been known to fall
from dangerous heights, and even to bo
killed on being awakened while taking
their sleep walks. The affliction is said
to be hereditary, and is sometimes caused
by intemperance.
The Russian government has borrowed
$80,000,000 to build railways.
Tho Tct Crocodile.
When Herodotus was in Egypt about
450 years beforo tho Christian era, tho
following was tho way in which this
formidablo rcptilo was taken prisoner:
"There are many ways of catching
crocodiles in Egypt, but the following
scorns to bo best worth relating. The
huntsman puts the chino of a pig as a
bait on a hook, and lets it down into tho
river. In tho mcantimo ho takes his
station on tho bank, holding a young
pig, which ho brats in order to make it
squeal out. Tho crocodile, on hearing
this, makes toward tho sound, but meet
ing with the bait on his wav, he swallows
it down. Then tho men begin to pull,
and after ho is fairly hauled out on dry
land, the first thing the huntsman dots
is to plaster the crocodile's eyes up with
mud. If ho can succeed in doing this
there is no difficulty in managing tho
benst; otherwise it is a very troublesome
affair."
The different treatment which this
monster received in different parts of
ancient Egypt is curious, and not very
easily accounted for. In tho southern
parts, near (the cataracts, tho crocodile
was an articlo of food, but probably
only with a particular caste, as in Don
gola at tho present day. In other parts,
as tho Thebes and near tho great Lako
Kcroun, it was fashionable to have a pet
crocodile, who was fed daintily and
treated with great rc9pcct. "They put,"
said Herodotus, "pendants of glass and
gold in their cars, and rings round their
fore-legs; they also give them a regular
allowance of bread and meat, and tako
all possible care of them whilo nlivo.
When they dio tho Egyptians embalm
them and put them in sacred sepul
chres." Fortunately for tho credit of
Herodotus, a mummy of a crocodile has
been found with his cars pierced for
pendants, which fact is particularly
mentioned by M. Geoffroy St. Hilaire.
Strabo tells nn odd story of a crocodile
which he saw when ho visited Egypt,
somewhat moro than 400 years after the
visit of Herodotus. "In this district
they honor the crocodile very much, and
they have a sacred one which lives in the
lako by itself, and is quite tame to the
priests. He is called Suchus, and is fed
with bread, and meat, and wine, which
ho gets from strangers who come to see
him. Our host, who was a person of im
portance in the place, accompanied us to
tho lake, taking with him from the tablo
a small cako, somo roasted meat, and a
little cup of some sweet liquor. Wo
found the crocodile lying on tho margin
of the lake. Tho priests went up to him,
and while some opened his mouth, another
crammed into it, first tho cake, then
tho meat, and last of all, poured tho
drink down his throat. Tho crocodile,
after this treat, jumped into tho lake
and swam over to the other side. Eye.
A Billion.
What is a billion? In the French sys
tem of notation, which is also used in
the United States, it is a thousand mil
lions; but tho English system gives tho
namo billion to a million millions. Sir
Henry Bessemer, tho famous inventor,
who is in the habit of occupying his
leisure with curious calculations for the
amusement of his grandchildren, tried
to convey somo ideaof tho immensity ex
pressed in this little word. Ho took it
successively as a mensuro of time, of
length and of height. Selectins tho
second as tho unit to bo used iu his first
calculation, he began with tho startling
assertion that a billion seconds have not
yet elapsed since tho commencement of
tho Christian era nor, indeed, even a
sixteenth part of that number. A billion
seconds make 31,087 years, seventeen
days, twenty-two hours, forty -five min
utes, five seconds. In regard to length, he
chose tor his unit tho English sovereign,
a coin of the size of a half-cagle. A
