Tho Paris Mor*ue and Its Dead.
Here are some grim figures from
the annual statistical report of the
Morgue. Last year no leso than 909
bodies lay on the marble slabs of the
Paris dead-house, aDd of this great
number more than 200 were unknown
men and women, clatmed and recog
nized by none. Two hundred and
fifteen out of the total number had
lost their lives by drowning; falls had
disposed of eighty-three; hanging
ended seventy-six, and firearms sixty
eight, while suffocation, stabing. and
poisoning brought most of the rest to
their death. The greater numbpr of
the corpses were those of men, and
the statistics go to prove what has
been already proved—that those who
commit suicide oftener choose tho
lummer than the winter for their
"rash act," It is strange, but true,
that the brighter and more unhappy
souls find strength and nerve to end
their miseries. As to what pcrccnt
ge of the Morgue subjects aro sui
cides, of course 110 man can toll; but
probably it is very high.—Black and

THE OLD STONE BELFRY.
BY FRANCES ('. WILLIAMS.
■tin here, 4 'Ralph,"
j ffl & said Mr. Kline as
4 he wearily dropped
jfi ft chair in the
kitchen, "you'll
have to ring the
Sfkh bell to-night; I'm
i °* eftn i ,la y il out.
jBBK The rheumatism's
>li pot me again. I
JBSTwIMI lig lit.ed up th e
Ml TTwn church and turned
' it" tlio lamps low be
fore I came home, but as for going
back again to-night, I can't do it."
"All right, I'll do it, "replied Ralph,
a sturdy boy of fifteen. "All I'll have
to do will be to turn up the lights and
ring the bell twice, I suppose."
Mr. Kline had been the sexton and
bell-ringer of the old stouo church for
twenty years, and Ralph Kline had
many a time been with him when ho
opened the church for service, and
even bad helped him ring tlio boll.
Therefore, though the church was a
quarter of a mile from the nearest
house, it was with no hesitation that
he started out after supper. A bright
moon lit up everything and made the
snow sparkle as if strewn with dia
monds.
Arrived at tho church ho pulled the
big key from his pocket, unlocked and
opened the door and walked in. The
body of the church, which was not
large, was dimly lit by a dozen lamps,
which Ralph speedily turned up so
that the building was cheerful in a
glow of light. Then he walked to the
vestry, and, opening a small door at
one side, glanced at the nickel clock
which was suspended on the wall.
"Five minutes of seven!" he ex
claimed to himself. "Time I was
ringing!"
The bell at the church was always
rung twice, with a period between of
ten minutes. Most of the congrega
tion lived at a distance—from a quar
ter of a mile to a mile or more away.
So a "warning bell," as it was called,
was rung at five minutes of seven, in
the evening, when services began nt
half past seven, and a second hell at
ten minutes after seven. Thus every
one within hearing distance of the
church had ample time to make ready
if they wished to attend.
Ralph closed the dior of tho towor
room and took oil his coat. By lamp
light, the boll-rope seemed like some
great snake stretching down from
above where tho darkness hid every
thing. But Ralph was too accustomed
to tho interior of the place to think of
this. He reached up and took a firm
grasp on the rope, threw his weight
upon it, and slowly sank toward the
floor.
The bell, which was a big one, hung
in a cradle, and the bell-rope, passing
up into the belfry, was fastened in the
groove of a large wheel which, when
turned by u pull on the rope, rocked
the bell and threw the iron tongue
against its sides. Tho bell was veiy
heavy, and it took a couple of vigor
ous pulls, even when Mr. Kline him
self had hold of the rope, tobriugany
sound forth.
Twice Ralph pulled and hung upon
the rope before the cradle began to
move perceptibly. Even then the
bell did not ring, and the boy threw
all his strength aud weight into a third
effort.
As lie did so, it seemed to him that
the rope came toward him much more I
quickly than it should, and then, be- j
fore he could let go, it suddenly j
loosened up above aud fell in great !
spirals to the floor. Fortunately none
of the heavy coils struck him ; but it
gave him a big start, notwithstanding,
and he jumped quickly to one side.
There he stood staring up into the
darkness, and wondering what could
have happened. Then, realizing that
the only way to learn was to go up in- I
to the belfry and investigate, he picked j
up a lantern which stood in a corner,
and, lighting it at the lamp, started .
4ip the ladder which led to the tower |
above.
It was a long ladder and climbing it
was no easy task. The lantern, as it
hung from his arm, banged against
him and cast shifting and uncertain
lights. The rungs of the ladder were
covered with a thick coating of dust.
Yet ho toiled slowly on. It seemed as
if the ladder never would end. It
grew cold, too, for it was freezing
outside, and a keen wind blew through
the openings in the belfry above.
Presently, however, Ralph struck
his head against something, and he
knew he had reached the end of his
journey. Holding on with one hand,
with the other ho unfastened the hook
which held down the trap door. Push
ing this back he drew himself up
through the opening, and was in the
belfry.
For an instant he rested. Then,
shivering as a cold blast of wind
swept down upon him, he rose to his
feet and took up the lantern.
Immediately before him was the
rope, dangling from the bell cradle
above. Apparently, it was all!
right. It seemed to run properly ■
enough through the hole in tho floor-1
ing on which he stood. He was about
to go down the ladder again to dis
cover where the break had oecurred
when a draft of air stirred tho rope,
and, as it moved, he saw that it did
not go through the hole at all. It came
to an end just where it reached the |
floor.
Ralph placed the lantern beside him
and bent down to examine the rope.
It seemed to have beeu severed by j
some jagged edge, for it was torn and
frayed, aud bits of hemp strewed tho
floor near by. Ho concluded that it
must have been worn through by rub
bing against the sides of tho hole
through which it had originally passed.
While he was looking at it ho was
startled by a sharp squeak at his very
elbow. He glanced quickly about,
and a bright spark iu a dark corner of
the belfry caught his eye. He picked
up the lantern and swung it in front
of him, and a small gray animal
darted under a beam. It was a rat.
All at once, Ralph recollected that
the old belfry was said to be infested
with these animals, and, raising him
self, he turned to go. As he did so,
his foot struck the edge of a floor
board and he fell, knocking tho lan
tern over and instantly extinguishing
the light.
Somewhat startled now, for the first
time, he groped about for the trap
door, but could not find it. The
moonlight, which came from above,
lost itself in the narrow tower, and
where he lay it was almost entirely
dark. At last, however, his hand came
in contact with something which he
knew was the trap door ; but, even as
ho touched it, it fell with a Viang! He
nervously tried to raise it again ; but
in vain. The door was flush with the
floor about it, aud there was no ring
holt or projection by which to secure ,
a hold on it.
While Ralph was struggling to get a
finger beneath tho trap door, the j
same sharp squeak which had startled J
him before sounded again, and this
time it was almost immediately echoed
from half a dozen other places.
As he turuod about, in every dircc- |
tiou there shoue iu the darkness tiny
sparks of light. Ralph know that
theso were tho eyes of rats. One, or
even n couple of the animals ho would !
not have feared. But a dozen of i
them, boldly surrounding him in this
way in the darkness, sent a shiver
down his hack. He noted, too, that
they did not seem afraid of him,
though he banged on the floor and
yelled at them. Instead, they grew
bolder as their numbers increased,
and one of t'uem presently darted
across his foot.
Ralph now sprang to his feet and
rushed at the enemy. Those in front
of him at once retreated, as ho could
tell by the disappearance of their
eyes. But as he moved several jumped I
at him from behiu 1, and one fastened
its teeth iu his leg. He kicked wildly
at this, and the rat was thrown to one I
I side. Another instantly sprang at
| him, and then a half-dozen at once, a
I couple of the vicious little animals
fastening themselves iu his clothes.
Ralpli whirled about, dashing his
assailants off for a moment. It was
only for a moment, however, for he
was attacked again immediately, aud
this time more fiercely than before.
Thoroughly terrified uow, he yelled
loudly, and kicked aud struck out
with fists and feet indiscriminately.
But no answer came to his cries. The
walls of the tower echoed his voice aud '
the squeaks and squeals of tho rats; j
but that was all.
Something struck Ralph in the face, j
Instinctively ho made a pass at it with
his hand, thinking it was a rat. But I
his fingers came iu contact with the
bell rope, which shook with tho blow,
then swayed into his face again.
At the second blow an idea came to
him. He reached out quickly with
both hands aud grasped the rope and
pulled himself from the floor. Then,
with one tremendous kick, ho shook
off the last of the rats which clung to
him, aud, hand over hand, raised him
self a hall-dozen feet into the air.
The rope slowly descended with his ,
weight as the wheoll slowly revolved. >
Tho boll at last struck a solitary, I
mufliod note as tho tongue fell against
its edge. Then it was silent, remain- I
ing tilted iu tho air, and, and Ralph j
rested.
But the strain on his arms soon '
warned him that he could not long
stay in his present position, even w.th I
his feet twisted about the rope as they \
were. To go down ho did not dare.
To go up was tho alternative; so |
slowly he pulled himself higher until i
his head struck something hard. He !
quickly put up a hand and felt for the '
obstacle. A short examination told
him that it was a beam. Then he re
membered that a couple of stout tim
bers rau across the belfry aud gave
support to the frame in which hung
the bell.
Ralph twisted himself about and
tried to force himself between the two
beams. But the intervening space
would only admit his head and shoul
ders, and, having worked himself that
far upward, he fouud his legs wore so
confined that he could scarcely move
them. He then clutched the rope
with one hand, and the most conven
ient beam with the other, and, for a
full minute, remained motionless,
resting. Below him he could hear the
rats squaking, and occasionally be felt
the rope shake as some particularly
active animal sprang at it.
The movement of the rope suggested
a plan to him which promised tempo
rary reßt to his arms, and he at once
put it into execution. First he low
ered himself so that his head was clear
of the beams. Then, while he clung
fast with one hand, he raised the slack
rope below and twisted it about the
part from which he hung, so that a
loop was made, into which he quickly
thrust one leg. It was very difficult
work, for tho ropo was thick and
heavy, but when it was done, and ho
hold the ropo so that it could not slip,
he found he had a fairly comfortable
seat.
He now hung some three feet below
tho cross beams, and, thought the rope
rose and fell gently for a few minutes,
as the cradle above slightly rocked
with his motions, no sound came from
the bell. There were no sudden pulls
on the rope, and consequently the
tongue of the bell remained motionless
against the bell's edge.
Ralph was content to rest in this
way for several minutes. Then a blast
of icy wind sweeping down upon his
shoulders warned him that he could
not remain long where he wh. Swung
iu midair, without a coat, he would
shortly freeze!
But would any help come?
It seemed unlikely, since only his
own family knew that he was at tho
church, and they would not think it
strange if he did not return for u
couple of hours.
Neither was it likely that anyone
would think of coming up into tho bel
fry, unless they should happen to go
into the room below and see the fallen
rope. Of course there was a chance of
this, since there would be curiosity
doubtless as to why the bell had failed
to ring as usual.
Ralph determined that something
must be done to attract attention to
his place of imprisonment at once. He
knew it was useless to call. His voice,
cooped up between the narrow walls
of the high belfry, would never be
heard outside, yell as loudly as he
might.
He looked about wildly, and just
then a shaft of moonlight gleamed on
the curved side of the bell. Tho boll!
—why had he not thought of it be
fore? Ho reached up quickly, and,
after a little effort, succeeded in grasp
ing one of the beams overhead. Then
he began swaying on tho rope. He
had an insecure hold, but within a few
minutes his heart loaped as a deep
boom rang out from the bell. Harder
| and harder lie worked, and the notes
of alarm followed close upon each
other. Soon the old bell was ringing
out a wild peal and the timbers under
his hand vibrated with its movement.
Suddenly, through the clangor of
the bell he heard tho sound of voices.
Then a light shot up from up the
opened trap door, aud a voice called
out to know what was the matter.
There was a note of alarm in the ques
tion ; for, this bell ringing, apparently
without hands, was enough to make
anyone a bit fearful.
Ralph quickly told them how mat
ters stood. He added in warning:
"Look out for the rats!"
The man below held a lantern high
above his head, and then crawled upon
tho floor, immediately followed by a
companion.
Ralph recognized the men as neigh
bors, and soon descended stiff and cold
from his awkward perch.
No rats were to bo soeu. Frightened
by the light and the presence of so
many persons, the vicious little beasts
had retreated.
Ralph did not wait to investigate
more. Onco down the ladder ho told
his story to the startled congregation,
which had nearly all assembled, and
then hurried home.
To this day, however, he nevor looks
at the old stone belfry without a shud
der. —St. Louis Republic.
Making a School (ilobo.
A hollow wooden or iron sphere is
first formed with wires projecting at
opposite ends to indicate tho poles.
Then strips of damp paper are spread
all over it; other strips of paper
soaked iu paste are laid over them,
then other strips and so on, till the
total thickness of tho layer is about
an eighth of an inch. When com
pletely dry the pasteboard envelope is
cut in the line of the (future) equator,
and is separated from the mold in two
hemispheres. These are fastened by
nails to the two ends of a wooden rod
exactly equal in length to the diameter
of the globe, and tho edges of the
hemispheres are glued together so
that wo get a pasteboard sphere. Two
wires projecting from the two ends of
the wjoden rod penetrate the paste
hoard, and form the poles of the
globe. The pasteboard is then coated
six or more times over with whiting,
glue aud oil, until a considerable sub
stance has been laid en, each layer
being dried before tho next is ap
plied. At this stage of the manufac
ture auy irregularity on the surface of
tlm globe is remedied by working a
metal semi-circle round and round the
sphere till the surface is made quite
smooth. The surface is theu marked
by means of a beam compass, with
lines to represent the circles of lati
tude and longitude.—Goldthwaite's

Affection for a Dog.
"Oue often hears," says Ernest F.
Priest, of Rochester, N. Y., who was

night, "of the affection of dogs toward
