Tho soeno is a sort of picnic grounds in the outskirts of Seville: "MennHmn tho nninintion had bee'i on tho increase among the rulHiiiis. Tho period of unmannerly nction had come. One of them climbed upon tho tiiblo to make a ancevli, mid, the others, liy way of npplnunc, threw sherry and mima hillu in his face. Another wno try inn to lift with his teeth n companion whom drunkenness had stretched out on the floor. He did not succeed. Ho merely tore his sack coat. Still others were committing nhsurd and extravagant no tions, making n great noLso nnd uproot "Tho count remained grave and silent, drinking ono nhm of sherry after an other Hut his eyes wero no longer, ns usual, incomprehensible and unfathom able like thoso of a man tired of life. Though ho did not speak or move about he seemed a different man. "Tho Englishman had taken off his jacket and waistcoat, and, rolling up his shirt sleeves, was exhibiting his Weeps, which were really powerful, and trying to break empty bottlos on his arm. Once blood had come, but ho went on breaking tho bottles without paying any attention to it. Then he link ed, the waiter to bring a bottle of rum and a largo plans, lie filled this to the brim with tho liquor, and then slowly, without moving a muscle or even wink ing, he drained it to the bottom. Then ho sat down at tho table opposite the count and said solemnly; " ' Yon can't do that. ' "A flash of fury gleamed through the harebrained nobleman's eyes, tut, he succeeded in restraining himself, iie.fi. turning the rest of the bottle into ihe glass, he calmly ordered llio waiter to bring him some pepper. Ho threw in a pinch of it, then threw into it his cigar ashes heaped up before him, and, with out say tug a word, with the same scorn ful, contemptuous Rniilc, drained tho glass, and, not content with that, bit it iu pieces. Te saw his lips spotted with blood. The compnny received with oles j and shouts of triumph th's proof of mi unconquerable stomach, in which it seemed as though the natiounl honor i were concerned. "Our neighbors iu the otbor booths rnnst have reached tho sanm happy , grade of temperature, for nothing was heard but extravagant shouts, the crash ing of glasses, coarse laughter and swearing. "Tho count wns not yet satisfied with his victory over tho Englishman. Wbilo ho was swallowing with apparent culm nosg the glasses of liquor which were offered to him he did not ceaso to de vour him with his eyes, tarried away by a dull madness, which soon broke , out His eyes, which were tho only part i of his impnssivo fuun that' lnove, gleamed more and mole ferociously, like thoso of a madman when a straitjacl.i t, has been put on him. Tho Englishman ooutinued to boast of his strength. He was now thoroughly intoxicated and talking impudently enough to the oth ers, who wero not so drunk. " 'So you uro vory valiant, aro you' asked the count, still smihuje disdain fully. ." 'Moro than you, retorted the Eng lishman. "Don Jonaro started to spring at him. hut the others restrained him. Socu calming himself, be said: " 'If you are so brave, why not put your hand on the table?' '"What for?' " 'To pin it down with mine.' "The Englishman, without an in stant's hesitation, stretched out bis huge, brawny hand. The oonnt took out of his pocket a damaskeened dagger nnd laid his delicate, gentlemanly hand on the Englishman's, und without hesita tion and with m ferooions grip he raised the point with the other and drove it through both into the table. "The women uttered ft ory of terror All of ns men ran to their assistance A few left the place in searoh of help In an instant oar booth was filled with blood. From the wounds great drops of blood streamed, staining the handker chiefs which we appliod to them. "A doctor who happened to be among the bystanders dressed the wounds pro visionally with the few means at his disposal. The count smiled while thuy wore dressing his hand. The English man was as sick as horse nnd vomit ing. Soon the count was doing the sumo, and both were taken to such rooms as the establishment had to offer and went to bed.

Raw Ha It Tanclit to Stand tha Hlara anil Thumlrr nf Itattla. A warhorse is broken to be steady tinder fire by tying ropes to his legs. While tho animal is down on thr ground the olllcor takes n pistol and (ires it closo to his ear Then in rapid -tiler he fires tho weapon over Ills bu'Ot, under his neck, between his legs, ,viwhero that an opening presents itself during tho horse's futile struggles. Not until ho sinks back exhausted, all a-tremble and showing tho whites of his eyes, docs tho pistol practice cease. After two or threo lessons of this kind it is considered safe to mount him with a bridle furnished with a curb bit. Up to this time the horso has never felt a curb. Tho light snatllo is still retained, and tho curb bridle is only given a gen tle pressure at first, Just enough to let him know that it is there. Gradually the strength of tho pull Is increased, and with this safeguard tho horso is taught to stand fire from his rider's pis tol or carbine. In carbine practice tho horso must lie tl roughly broken, as both IiiumI are required in using this weapon, whereas with tho pistol tho rider may retain the bridle with one hand. Then comes hiiIxt practice, and that is another l rial to the horse. Again is he thrown to thi ground, and he proba bly can't understand why he should have to suffer this indignity nil over again, for bo has learned that lesson very well. Rut when the bright blade of tho saber, with quick thrusts flash ing beforo bis eyes and cutting tho air in closo proximity to his eurs, appears to him ho is again terror stricken. But the lesson he has learned from tho smell of gunpowder stands him in good stead, and ho soon gets over his fear. And even with a man on his back and another mounted upoil ft seasoned horso coining at him with saber raised in the air or slashing left and right ho knows that it is all a part of his educa tion and something to be expected. So he stands his ground or cavorts about the other horso while tho two troopers indulge in their saber practice. New York World. FORESTALLED HIM. Tha Chlpprr Yonth Knrw What Cinallj Happened In finch Caana. The fresh young man with no respect in his soul for gray hairs and dyed whiskers swung himself on tho car in tho middle of a block, and leaning against tho brako handlo proceeded to roll a cigarette with great deftness. The fat man who despises the ways of the youth on general principles leaned against the window guards nnd watched tho development of a cigarette. "Got a match, neighbor?" inquired tho fresh young man as ho put tho last finishing twist to his smoke. "Young man" began tho fat man after a brief, elderly pause, calculated to greatly impress the cigarette smoker. "Yes, I know all about" inter rupted the youth, "so you might as well choko your lecture on a borniu. I know cigarettes will kill mo if I stick to 'em, but I don't enro. It's an easy death. I know if I must smnlco I should smoke cigars, but I don't, like tho color of 'cm. I've got a touch of paresis now, and I'm duo for more. I know you think of all tho disgusting things iu the world a cig,arotto is the worst. "I know they undermine tho Consti tution tuul are wrecking the rising gen eration. Now if I've forgotten anything yon wero going to say help mo out. Come to think of it, I've got a match myself. If I keep on smoking these things, I won't bo nblo to think at nil before long. I know if you had a boy that smoked cigarettes yon would lick him within an' inch of his life. I nearly forgot you' were going to say that. Whero do you get off anyhow?" "Here, " gasped tho fat man bs ho droppod oil' the platform, muttering something ubont what this country is coming to. And the fresh young man lighted his cigarette with a grin. Washington Times.

"Yer what? Why, what I said. What's yer after o' Sundays?" "Rabbits mostly. " " 'Ere, stow that lip. Come, now, chn'oh, chapel or 'oly Roman?" And after explanation from his ques tioner the recruit replied: "I ain't no wise portickler. Put me down chn'ch o England, sergeant I'll go with the band."

Boston Transcript Naval tmpndrnea Fifty years ago the allowance of paint in tho British navy wns vory small, nnd sometimes tho officers had to pay large sums in order that their ships might maintain ft decent appear anoo. Ono of then, resorted to n humor ous expedient, either to soften the heart of tho navy board, or if that proved ini possible, to express his opinion. iiir John Piiiliimore painted ate. sldo 9f his old yellow frigate bl.n,k and whito and used the rest of tho black paint in printing mi the other sldo in largo letters, "No more point." Tho navy board wroto to call his at tention to the impropriety of his con duct and signed themselves, ns they did officially, "Your affectionate friends." To this Sir John replied that ho could not obliterate the objectionable letters unless ho was given moro paint and signed himself in turn, "Your affec tionate friend, John j'hillimore." The navy board then called his atten tion to tho impropriety of thnsigiintnrn, to which Sir John replied, iiekiinwleiltr Ing tho letter, stating thar . M.ntti'l that tho paint had not b i u scut nnd ending: "I am no longer your affection ate friend, John Piiiliimore." His frigate was allowed to reti in her original yellow, nnd perhaps the navy board did right thus to punish Sir John's impertinence. Youth's Companion. beneficial KflVct nf Coffee. A woman writer who gave up coffeo recently found that sho was umiblo to continiio her writing with any success until she had resorted again to the stim ulating beverage. Without it her mind was logy and heavy. Tho Medical Times quotes an authority on tho subject of prescribing coffee ns a medicine iu cer tain states of great debility and adds: "Ten and coffeo seem to bo much alike in ninny respects, but tho latter Is greatly proferablo as to its sustaining power. It would be a great advantage to our working classes and a great help toward tho further development of so cial sobriety if coffee wero to como into greatly increased use and if tho ability to make it well could bo acquired. As an example of the difference of effect of tea and coffee upon tho nerves the writer notes what ho believes many sportsmen will confirm that it is far better to drink coffeo than tea when shooting. Ten, if strong or in any quan tity, especially if tho individual bo not in very robust lienlth, will induce n sort of nervousness which is very prejudicial to steady shooting. Under Its influcnco ono is opt to shoot too quickly, whereas coffee steadies tho baud and gives quiet nerves " Thought Illm One of tho Queer One. Mr. (Juiller-Conch tells this story in tho Pall Mall Magazine: "Hicks, gov ernor of the Cornwall County Lunatic asylum, had n great many friends ex tramural friends, I mean and among them an accomplished liuidscapo paint er. This artist, captivated by tho beauty of tho littlo seaport town of East Lone, took lodgings there, choso his 'subject' and started to make some drawings of it on tho rocks nt low tide. "A few days Infer Hicks drove over to seo him, od arrived nt West Looo to be taken across tho harbor in n boat. To his surprise, ho found a houtmau wait ing for him. Still moro to his surprise, tho boatman hailed him thus: " 'Aw, Mr Hicks, I've n-beon look ing out for 'eo the last day or two. 1 knowed you'd como. He's over he:. now. Ho's been hollering and scrct. fil ing. Ho sits at low water dowi: a:.. : tho weed, a-pnintiug at n bit ol board, and ho calls out, "Como into the ci.r den, Maud. " A pretly garden lie.'ve a-got there I "I'm hero by tho gate alone." Not a gato within a mile of 'nut You can talio 'tin; ho's quiet. ' " Presence of Mind. Although it is not given to everybody to know exactly what to do nt tho right moment, ono woman nt least can lay claim to a presence of mind which may, without und no exaggeration, he consid ered phenomenal. This woman's littlo boy was ailing from some trivial childish complaint, and tho doctor ordered him tome medi cine. He had just taken his duily dose when his mother said, with some ex citement : "I quite forgot to shake that bottle afore giein ye't Johnnie. Come hero. " Johnnie obeyed, and, much to his as tonishment and disgust, was subjected to a vigorous shaking from tho strong arms of the parent at the conclusion of which he was laid down with the re mark: "There, my laddie, that'll doe. It should be gey wool mixed up noo, I'm thinkin, but don't let me forget again. " Johnnie promised. Pearson's Weekly- Information From Boatswain's Mate.
