The Chimes In Old Trinity.
There is a delightful mystery ntmut
the Trinity chime. It i the oldest in
this country, except the chime of Christ
church in Philadelphia. But very little
Is known of the history of Trinity's older
bells. From the inscriptions upon them
it is supposed that the five bells that nt
first composed the chime were cajt in
London. One more, it is believed, enmo
from England in 1788, when the second
Trinity church was erected. When the
present Trinity church was built in 1843
there were six old bells in tho steeple.
The largest one was cracked and was
sent to Troy to be recant, and at the
game time four more Troy bells were
bought.
Consequently the Trinity chime now
consists of ten bells, five cast in England
and five cast in Troy. The largest
weighs 8, SOS pounds, the smallest 730,
and the whole together about 13,000
pounds. They are hung in such a heavy
wooden framework that the full volume
of their sound is never heard in the
street. Even liefore the improvements
in Grace church, Trinity's method of
ringing was considered primitive by com
parison, New York Sun.

The Vatican library at Rome, cele
brated for its thousands of valuable
books, contains a copy of that most val
uable of all books, the Hebrew Bible.
Years ago, in the time of Pope Julius,
about 1813 or 1314, a most remarkable
offer was made for this Biblical treasure.
A syndicate (I suppose the company was
hardly known as a "syndicate" at that
time) of rich Jews was formed for the
pnrpose of getting the Bible out of the
hands of the Catholic hierarchy. They
made many offers, all of which were re
fused, capping the climax by offering its
weight in gold. As the weight of the
book is exactly 825 pounds, that offer waa
considered as being equivalent to 12S,
000 of United Statea currency. Phila

The Father of Iltaraoh's Daughter.
Who was the father of pharaoh'f
daughter? What waa his name? The
word pharaoh was simply a title, and
the phrase "pharaoh's daughter" gives
no more information than "the king's
daughter" or "the lord's daughter."
Three pharaohs of the name of Thot
mes, three of the name of Amenhotep
nd two of the name of Rameses have
had their names advocated to be the
father of the princess who rescued the
infant Moses. There is a controversy
going on about it controversy revived
by the Rev. Professor Heckler at the
congress of orientalists in London.
Killed the Cat,
Several years ago a farmer and his
wife were sitting opposite each other at
a kitchen table in a storm. A cat was
lying beside them on the floor near the
stove. The lightning struck the chim
ney over the kitchen, came down, and
whirled the table about without injur
ing either the man or his wife. It
struck the stove, passing off by one of
its legs, which was melted, killed the
cat, and finally went off into the well
by way of a nail in the floor. Exchange,

Kngllsh Policemen.
The police regulations in England are
very different from those common in
this country. The policeman there is
not nearly so autocratic as he is here
and would never think of using a club
or striking a man, except in self defense.
J. Gilmer Speed gives this story vf their
mild sway:
Upon one occasion a man came into
my office nnd created a disturbance. I
ordered him out. He declined to go, so I
sent for a oliceman. A sergeant came.
I said to him:
"This man does not lielong here anil
refuges to leave my office. Will you
please take him ont?'
I expected the sergeant to tell the man
he must go, and then if he did not move
on I expected to see the officer remove
him by force. Not at all. The sergeant
said, "You had better leave here, sir,"
and his tone wns as respectful and civil
as though he was asking a favor.
The man manifested no intention of
leaving, and the police officer began nn
inquiry as to his reasons for wanting to
stay. This so exasperated ine that I put
the man out myself, greatly to tho
astonishment and apprehension of the
officer.
He explained to me that I had no right
to interfere in the matter I had brought
to his attention, and that doubtless the
intruder would get out a warrant against
me and have me arrested for assault.
A Mexican Bat In a Illrdeage,
In a little out of the way alley not far
from Htuyvesant square there is a small,
dingy barroom. It is the favorite drink
ing place of a dozen or more old men,
who are cronies and have met and played
chess there for many years. The aged
proprietor of the place has filled the
room with curiosities strange stuffed
birds, autographs of old New Yorkers
theater tickets of a quarter of a century
ago, a few old fashioned collars, etc.
The old gentleman is facetious occa
sionally. He has been chuckling over
his latest joke for a week or two.
Hanging from the ceiling directly
over the bar is a bamboo birdcage The
four sides of the cage are covered with
cloth curtains. On one of these curtains
is printed this inscription, "A Mexican
Bat." Of course every customer wants
to see the animal, but on lifting the cur
tain one sees nothing but a brick sus
pended from tho top of the cage by a
string. The experiment generally costs
the curious person at least the price of
five flagons of ale. New York Tribune.
A Scheme That Works.
When yon go into the Marble Collegi
ate church, at Fifth avenue and Twenty
ninth street, you will find in the book
rack of each pew a card of the size of a
fashionable envelope. It is an "ac
quaintance card," bearing the pastor's
name and church address on one side,
with a nice little square in the upper
right hand corner in which is printed,
"If mailed, two cent stamp here." On
the other side is printed: "In order that
the pastors may have the opportunity of
seeking personal acquaintance and ex
tending to yon the courtesies of the
church, please write your name and ad
dress below, drop the card in the pas
tor's mail box, hand to an usher or return
by mail. Signed, David James Bnrrell,
D. D., pastor; Rev. Palmer 8. Hulbert,

supper last night 1 found a worm a
black, shaggy worm an inch long in a
fresh egg. You see 1 have my eggs
served to me in the shell and eat them
with a spoon from the shell. As 1 dug
down into the yolk of one brought me at
a fashionable restaurant I saw something
black in the center, and pulling it out
discovered what I have told you. The
egg was sound as a dollar. The way 1
figure it out is that an old hen swal
lowed a worm just before the egg began
to form nnd the worm got tangled up in

'ear llefore the Fight.
Testimony differs as to tho feeling of
the soldier on going into a fight, and the
many experiences related by Urand
Army men to their always willing lis
teners show that in their war histories
there waa no uniformity of either fear
or daring. The major of a New Hamp
shire regiment said: "I always felt
timid when the shot began to reach us,
but an soon as we got into action I was
carried away by excitement. I am not
usually a profauo man, and I have no
recollection of talking roughly to my
troops, yet a good many of them have
assured me that all through a fight 1
would swear like well, liko a trooper."
Another man, a colonel, said: "It's
all nonsense to say that a man doesn't feel
afraid in thelieginuingof a fight and all
through it. Of course he does. He has
reason. Sherman said of General Sum
ner that he was the only man who grew
bolder as he grew older, but the only
man I ever saw who really seemed to
want to fight, and to enjoy it after he
was in it, was Custer." New York Sun
A Lawn Game.
Tetherball is a new game of Eng
lish origin which possesses the pro
nounced advantage of being played in
a few feet of lawn or courtyard. A
post eight feet high is set up, and to
this is attached a cord having at its end
a ball. The space of the grounds may
influence somewhat the length of the
string, which should be, however, not
less than eight nor more than ten feet
long. The ball is set in rotary motion,
and with tennis racquets the two play
ers endeavor in' turn to hit it. The
game is said to be exciting, and decid
edly a warm contest, as the ball proves
very elusive. Exchange.

The Dlvlnlon nf Time.
At the poles, where all meridians con
ferge, there can be no natural standard
time, for it Is every hour of the day at
once; but the regulation of time at thene
singular poiutp has not yet become a
burning question. Were the system of
time reckoning recommended by the
prime meridian conference carried ont
In its entirety, tho minutes indicated on
111 well regulated clonk dials through
cut the world would bo tho same nt a
given instant, but the hours would dif
fer at each lSdegs. of longitude by steps
of one, twenty-four stnndards encircling
the globe. Thus, for example, nt twenty
five minutes past noon of the prime (or
rather the zero) meridian, clocks 00 degs.
E. wonld show twenty-five minutes pnst
6 p. m. (18h. 23m.); those DO degs. W
twenty-five minutes past 0 a. m. (Oh.
23m.), and those at 1H0 degs., twenty
five minutes past midnight.
The zero meridian adopted by the
prime meridian conference is that of
Greenwich, and definite time stand
ards based on hourly intervals from this
starting line have been used since 18H8
on the railways of North America. The
continent is divided into strips of 15
degs. in width, in each of which a sep
arate time standard prevails from the
Gulf of Mexico to Hudson bay. Atlan
tic time in tho eastern province of Can
ada and in Newfoundland shows 8 a.
m. at Greenwich noon; eastern time in
the Atlantic states of the Union marks
7 a. in. nt tho same moment, while cen
tral, mountain and Pucific time indicate
respectively 0, B and 4 a. m. Tho merid

America are those of 00, 73, 00, 105 and

Commotions Produced hy Electricity.
Many effects have been attributed to
electrical commotions, but for some of
these it would be hazardous to vouch.
There are wells nnd springs which are
thrown into a state of apparent ebulli
tion on the approach of a storm. Fount
ains are said to pour out coplons streams,
even in times of drought, when Jupiter
"media nimbomm in nocte, cornsea fnl
mina malitnr dextra." Subterranean
thunders have occasionally been heard
preparatory to an aerial eruption. The
sea has cast np volumes of water, as if
volcanoes were exploding below. The
gronnd has burst open, nnd floods of
water have gushed forth from the sides
of hills or from fissures in the rocks.
Taking another class of effects, cures
have been performed by lightning; gouty
men havo been enabled to walk freely;
epileptic persons have been healed;
amaurosis has been removed and rheu
matism dispelled by a flash. But one
dare not look too closely into the sub
ject of medicnl electricity, nor venture
to recommend any one to tempt light
ning in the hope of experiencing its cur
ative powers, for its action is arbitrary
and oftener than not hurtful. Three
hundred porsons were once struck in
Charleston prison and clean robbed of
their muscular strength. Chambers'

Pattl Sang for the Parrot.
In her castle at Craig-y-Nos Mine,
Pattt has a $0,000 parrot, which she
cherishes and pets as if it were a child.
One day there went to interview Patti a
young man who had traveled long and
far to view the beautiful Craig-y-Nos
palace. "Mine. Patti will be here in a
moment," said the door attendant.
Just then there was a rustle of skirts
and Mme. Patti swept into a room ad
joining. In a minute the most beauti
ful, birdlike notes rose upon the air, un
mistakably from Patti's throat.
"She is singing to me," said the de
lighted listener to himself, "and she is
too modest to come in aud sing directly
before me. She wants me to hear her
as she sings at home. Oh, what joy to
have this privilege!"
At this moment the heavy draperies
were pulled aside and the attendant
said:
"You may wait upon Mine. Patti
uow. She has been giving a short les
son to her parrot. She teaches him
every day. This way, Bir, if you please."
