A room the existence of which was known to few, If any, present oi-eo holders, was discovered last week ID the County Court House. It Is the southeast corner, under the office o< the Surrogate's clerks. It was tightly fastened, and, It Is said, has not been opened for twelve to fifteen years. No one In the building bad any control over the room or Its contents, but on In qulry It was found that tlio room had ' been taken years ago for the deposit of records of the Comptroller's office. The i Inquiry was pursued until n key to the room was found filed away In the of fice of the Comptroller and tlie room was opened. The dead air Inside nearly knocked over the curious men who looked In, and the door was quickly shut up again. The hasty glance taken of the Interior showed that It contained a lot of books and bundles of vouchers and such papers. It was the uuwholesome odor that hung about the Surrogate's office, where nine clerks are employed In a small room, that led to the search : which resulted In the discovery of the sealed apartment. It Is thought that some of the waste pipes have sprung a | leak iu the room. It Is understood that this secret room is the only part of the building re j talned for the Comptroller after an ; effort on his part several years ago to I secure quarters in the County Court- j house. The difficulty, as explained tc ' the writer by Justice Vnn Brunt some j time ago, arose through Comptrollei Andrew 11. Green Insisting that he had i the right to take possession of quarters In the County Court llouso under an- j thority of the Commissioner of Public j Works, In whose charge are the mu nicipal buildings. The Comptrollei was partly Installed before the Justices ! of the Supreme Court got Into action Ho wanted the lower floor on the west 1 side of the building, chiefly the pari j now used as docket clerks' rooms. "We told him," said the Justice, "that the State had subscribed something like £!<X),000 for the building, and thai the State would have something to saj aa to how the building was used. Mr Grefill was told that he would be brought before us for contempt If lit did not vacate, auu he vacated." The room now appears to show thai the Judges wero contemned Just a lit tle.—New York Sun. The Art of Complimenting. Compliments are the poetical touches which redeem the monotony of prosaic existence. In the intercourse of sym pathetic people they have a natural place, and it Is as pleasant to recog nize by word or look the charms of our friends as It Is to profit by them. Profit we do, undoubtedly, as all that makes life fairer makes It better, and a whole aoine discernment of good traits must add to our faith iu human nature and Its capabilities. Rigid moralists de clare that compliments are so akin to flattery that It Is wrong to use praise In any way. This Is "most Intolerable, and not to be endured," for all need both to give nnd receive encourage ment In this practical and hurrying world. And, l eprehenslble as hard na tures find It, there Is a charm In open ing our eyes to the attractions of others and a warm, healthy jfvw acconi panics the utterance of words which attest our admiration.

THRILLING INCIDENTS AND DARING DEEDS ON LAND AND SEA. A Doctor's Perilous Experience Wltli a Miitlmuii on 110, ,k1 a St eainnhip—Col onel Iticc'j* Experience With 1111 Angry Elephant and an Enraged Eton. "When I first hung out my shingle," said a prominent New York physician to a group of friends, among them a Washington Star reporter, "I thought it would be easy to drum up a good paying practice. But I soon realized my mistake. Patients were few. I didn't earn S&10 the first month, and one day when I felt very discouraged and was thinking of giving up the study of the healing art for a more lucrative commercial pursuit, I met a friend. The latter was the agent for a line of transatlantic steamers, and on telling him of my poor success as a physician, he offered ine a position as surgeon on one of his ships. I ac cepted the berth, nud, on the evening of the third day at sea, I had an ex perience with a madman, which X shall never forget. "The weather was very stormy, and as I, in consequence, had had bnt lit tle sleep the two previous nights, I felt rather drowsy, and sat in a chair in my stateroom dozing. Suddenly X was awakened by a tromendous lurch ing of the vessel. Then I heard a loud knock at my door, and a toll, strange, and very excited dark-featured man hurriedly eutered my cabin. The man's actions were so peculiar that I jumped to my feet and reached for a revolver which lay 011 my table. But I was too slow. The stranger had seized the weapon. I then asked the man gruffly what he wauted. He did not reply for some time, and then, af ter locking the door and putting the key and my pistol in his pocket, said: " 'X'm not sick, doctor. I've come here,' exposing a long knifo from the sleeve of his coat, 'by order of the captain to cut your throat.' "For a moment I looked the strang er in the face, and his wild, steady 1 stare scon convinced me that I had to deal with a madman. "I am not a coward, yet oven now the thought of th atmoment makes me shudder. There I was in a remote part of the ship alone with a madman of twice my physical strength, without a chance to escape or means to give nlnrm, and being unarmed, entirely at his mercy. I therefore decided that resistance would be of the leapt service to me, nud that apparent acquiescence would be best. All this quickly Hashed through my mind, and accordingly, feigning the utmost indifference I could, I said: " 'The captain's orders must, of course, be obeyed. But can you do the deed quickly?' " 'Oh, yes,' replied the madman, calmly surveying the knife which he hold in his hand. 'l'm a butcher by trade and can do the job easily with this tool.'" "Here he paused to examine with his thumb the edge of the knife, which looked rather blunt, and as he did so an idea struck me, and X remarked: " 'Your knife does not seem to have a very keen edge ; the trachea is tough, you know, and rather difficult to cut with such a blunt instrument.' "The madman now looked at me with a curious expression, as if trying :to read my thoughts, and then, after i examining the knife more closely, seemed to tliink my suggestion a good one; for ho said: i " 'Yes, doctor, I think you are i right. A little sharpening will do no harm; so if you don't mind waiting X ; will go to the galley and get the cook ; to help me put an edge on it with his grindstone.' "This was exactly what I wanted, as, feeling sure he would not lock the door after him, I thought my escape would be easy. But picture my dis may when 011 his departure, X dis -1 covered that the door was locked as securely as before. "What was I to do? I flung open the porthole and shouted with all my might for assistance, but (he fury of the gale was now so great that all my efforts to j malco myself heard were of 110 avail. | Thou in a frenzy of despair I looked ■ about for some weapon of defence, but ] there was not. so much as a stick to be found in my cabin. X put my ear to the keyhole, and, thinking X heaid footsteps approaching, I impulsively ! threw off my coat, went to the furthest ! end of the room, and standing as de ; fiantly as possible, resolved to fight to ' the last. "I remember then the door bursting j cpeu and the entry of the madman, not alone, as X expected, but securely pinioned and attend" 1 by two of the ship's crew ill charge of the second officer. The relief of the moment was ho great that it completely prostrated j me, and I fell in a faint to the floor. ! "When I caino to my senses I learned that the peculiar and excited 1 manner of the maniac, the largo knife in his possession and liis anxiety to sharpen it, drew suspicion 011 him and | induced the officer to secure and bring him to my cabin to ascertain his con dition. Needless to say I pronounced i the man insane, and ho was kept securely confined and watched day and night until the ship arrived in Liverpool, where he Avas handed over to the proper authorities. I returned ; Jo New York on the same vessel, but j never went to sea iu the capacity of a i surgeon again." j Colonel ltlce'n Two Narrow Karaite?. "Speaking of escapes from death recalls my experience Avith the mur derous elephant Romeo. Had I been a little sloAver in my movements I would have been his eighth victim," said Colonel Rice, reflectively. "One day 1 was directing the arrangement of some canvasmen, and unwittingly ventured a couple of steps b&okward nnd within rang&off the deatji-dealing • elephant, Athieh at once raised his trunk slowly with the purpose of giv ing me a settler. He would have suc ceeded in killing me had not a young elephant ne<"* by trumpeted an alarm, and, like lightning, I at once sprang forward and out of danger from the murderous blow of the trunk by such a small distance that ou the back of my head I felt the Avind occasioned by its descent. After that experience Romeo Avas always kept chained by all four legs. The young elephant which had saved mo was reAvarded Avith candy. "It is not- surprising that eventually I essayed the role of lion-tamer," continued the speaker, "aud under the able tutelage of Franeonelli, the best lion-tamer I ever suav. and who, by the Avay, subsequently met his death in a lion's den iu the city of j Havana. After having twice accom panied the fearless Franeonelli into the den of Richard 111, tlio largest aud fiercest African lion ever exhibited iu this country, it Avas at Vincennes, Ind.,that I at length determined tc enter the den of the beast alone. Clad iu tinsel and spangles, at the after noon performance, amid an outburst of music by the band, I boldly ap proached the lion's cage, opened the barred door and entered unharmed. The great brute, which was lying upon the floor at the further end of the cage, seemed to not held my presence other than by a glance of sullen in- I difference, so that I deemed ray first; attempt at entering a lion's den a sue- ! cess. "Rut my assurance of success was a little premature, and fortunate was it for me that beneath the cage Avas a furnace in which glowed red-hot iron rods and that trusty attendants Avere at hand to effectively wield them upon the lion if necessity demanded. After a three minutes' stay in tlie lion's den I made a parting salute to the breath less audience and prepared to leave t-lie cage. As I backed toAvard the door I observed to my horror that the lion [had almost imperceptibly risen from the floor, preparatory to spring ing upon me. Almost overcome by the grave danger of my situation, I contrived to signal the attendants to thrust the heated rods iu between me and the bloodthirsty brute. Scarcely had I done so when the great tawny creature hurled itself upon me aud, burying its claws in tuy shoulders, bore me to the floor. "I felt the hot breath of the lion in my face as he opened his huge jaws preparatory to sinking his fangs in my throat, and a horrible death was but a brief second distant, when the redhot irons wero brought into play and used so effectively that the brute was forced to retreat to the far end of tlio cage without inflicting further injury upon me. I was hurriedly drawn from the cage, none the worse for my thrilling experience, save badly shaken nerves, lacerated shoulders and a tattered tin sel jacket. As I hurried behind the curtain the band triumphantly played 'See, tlio Conquering Hero Conies!' and I noticed that a panic in the audi ence had been narrowly averted. And Avh&t became of Richard III? Oh, he lived to kill Franeonelli a few months later."—Los Angeles (Cal.) Times. Ili Put Out the, Flash. The Rev. Thomas Allen, the first minister ever settled in the town of Pittsfield, Mass., was a man renowned and beloved for his gentleness aud piety. When hostilities between Eng land and the colonies were declared, Pastor Allen's flock was astonished to hear their mild shepherd announce his intention to join the militia and light for the right. At the battle of Bennington the Berkshire militia had their share in the conflict, and tlio Rev. Thomas Allen fought as a common soldier, side by side with his fellow countrymen. Knowing this good man's natural aversion to violence aud bloodshed, some one said to him after the battle avus over: "They say you fought at Benning ton, Mr. Allen. Is it true?" "Yes, I did," answered the man of God. "It was a hot, close battle, and it bccamo every patriot to do his duty." "Well, but, Mr. Allen," said the parishioner, "did you kill anybody?" "Xo," replied the courageous but conscientious clergyman, "I don't know that I killed anybody; but I happened to notice a frequent flash from be hind a certain bush, and every time I saw that flash one of our men fell. I took aim at tlie bush and fired. I don't knoAV that I killed anybody, but I put out that flash!" A Qnotl Wall'* Good Work.

HYPNOTIZED BY A FEATHER. Remarkable Influence Kxerted Upon A I)o- In New Jersey. There is a Jog in Hackensack, N. J., that can be hypnotized by merely showing him a feather. Duke is the Jog's name, and he is the property of a Catholic priest, the Rev. Father | John Lambert, rector of St. Mary's j Church. J . The dog is four years old, and is a I magnificent full-blooded English set ter. It was about a year and a half ago ! that the strange influence that a feather has over Duke was discovered. Father | Lambert i3'a great lover of animal ; pets, and always has several about bis home. When the English setter was pur chased by him two years ago one of his pets was a dove named Bismarck. Dnke and Bismarck were friends from the first, and the dog's fondness for the dove was really remarkable. Six months after Duke came into the priest's household Bismarck was eaten jy a cat. Father Lambert kept one of the love's feathers as a souvenir. He placed it on the frame of a fruit pic ture which hung in the dining-room. Ever after that when the dog was al lowed in the dining-room he would sit : before the picture aud watch it intent j!y all the time he was there. Tt was ; noticed that his body trembled slightly. | i Duke had never before manifested a fondness for the picture, and his owner ,vas at a loss to know what caused the •Uange, until one day he brought the log up close to the canvas. To his mrprise Duke did not look at the pic ure at all, but kept his eyes eonstant -7 riveted on Bismarck's feather on I ib frame. The nearer he got to it the i aore convulsed his body became. The feather was thrown to the floor, i Duke watched its descent and could | sot be induced to turn his gaze from |t. He did not stir when he was sailed. j He was hypnotized, for a strange I 'orm of hypnotism it undoubtedly is. ■ [t was noticed thnt when the oxperi -1 aent was repeated frequently ill ef i iects were prouduced on the dog's j Health. I At no time could he bo iuduced to iouch the feather either with his teeth I ir his paws until told that he mightdo i so. Then he would take it gently in 1 his mouth, looking intently down at it : ill the whils, aud fetch it to his mas [ ;er or walk with it toward the cabinet lin which it was kept. The feather i gradually wore away until nothing but i part of the quill remained, but that | had the same effect as the whole feather. | Then it occurred to Father Lambert I so try other feathers, and it was found j that auy feather, excepting those of j she ostrich, prodnced the same result. ! A World representative visited j Father Lambert in his home last week, ind had demonstrated for the World's I benettt'Jthe remarkable effect of a feather on the dog. Duke was at the I loor wagging his tail vigorously when j '.he reporter approached. As soon as ] :he reception room door opened he larted across to the further side, and, sitting on his haunches, watched | ilevtly a closed drawer in the cabinet. I "Ah!" said the maid, "Duke if after | his feather." Then she explained ! briefly the dog's unique fascination. ! Another remarkable characteristic ! ibout Dnke is that he will not under ; uiy circumstances eat the flesh of I birds. No matter how it is cooked, he will not touch it. Once n little piece !of cooked chicken was put with a lot iof other food given him. He ate all the rest, but left the chicken un touched.—New York World. Bill Nye's Long; Search. !

One day i his brother—the same who had helped i in the search—got a letter from Bill, ; in which a pending long trip to Europe was described. | The letter wound up something like I this: "Yon see, I'm going a long ways, and shall be away some time. While I'm gone I shall keep a sharp lookout everywhere. Maybe I'll And that blame calf.

The Professor's Wife as n Critic. • A college professor, who prided I himself on his correct English, heard | his wife remark: "I intended to tell I Jane to bring a fresh backet of water." "You doubtless mean a bucket of fveßh water," corrected the professor. "I wish you would pay some atten tion to your rhetoric. Your mistakes are curious." A few minutes later the professor said: "My dear, that picture would show to better advantage if you were to hang it over the clock." j "Ah," she replied, quietly, "you | doubtless mean if I were to hang it I above the clock. If I were to hang it over the clock we could not tell the j time. I wish you would be more care j ful with your rhetoric, my dear, your mistakes are carious." —Syracuse Standard. Ono Thing Lacking. It is not likely that there will evci he another town built and managed after the manner of the town of Pull man.

It is not proposed to discuss here i those serious cases of obstinate in- : somnia which often tax the ingenuity 1 aud weary the patience of the most 'skilful specialist, but merely to men tion some simple measures by means ' of which ordinary wakefulness may be j overcome without the use of drugs. Sleep is produced by a shrinking ol ! the brain-cells so that they are nG ' longer in communication with each other, and wakefulness consequently results when these cells are in a state of excitement and refuse to draw away \ from each other. This excited condi- | tion may result from disease, such as fever, or it may come from worry, ' grief, or hard mental work. The main thing to do, therefore, in j order to induce sleep, is to quiet these j nerve-cells, and the prevention ol | wakefulness is best secured by avoid- j ing mental work in the evening. Often, however, a person must work at night. In that case, ho should stop some time before going to bed, and if ho must work late, it is better to stay up a short time in order to secure an interval of rest before trying to sleep. This time may be passed in any way th%t will force, or rather entice, the mind away from its previous occupa tion. A brisk walk or a short spin on the wheel, exercise with the dumb bells or Indian clubs, a cool bath things like these will often suffice for the desired purpose. Sometimes a little snack, such as a bit of cheese and a biscuit, or a glass of milk, taken while undressing, will induce sleep quickly. If the mind is dwelling persistently on one subject, do not struggle to force it to let gojits thoughts, for you will probably thereby make it take more tenacious hold. Try to lead it away by picturing to yourself some monotonous, constantly recurring *cene, like the water combing over the edge of Niagara's cliff, a swarm of flies chasing each other in the sun light, or a flock of sheep jumping one after the other over a log. Don't try to count, unless you would be like the man who was advised by his doctor to count until he fell asleep, in<l who did count up to 25,052, when he found it was time to get up. Deep and regular breathing is an important element in the general calming process so necessary to in luce sleep.—Youth's Companion. WISE WORDS. Persistency without principle is a mighty revolving wheel to which is at tached neither belt nor shaft. The world seems a narrow place when wo wish to avoid our enemies, hut wide and vast is it when we part from those we love. Poor Truth has been "crushed to iarth" so often that she has lost much )f lier elasticity and now finds it diffi jult to "rise again." He who is determined to see noth ing in his garden but beautiful flow irs, will soon find himself forced to jee nothing but weeds. If in choosing your friends you se lect those who love truth better than ill else, you will never be called upon ;o decide between honor and friend ship. The number of things that men loyalists and critics don't know about women is exceeded only by the num ber of things that they think they know.

Too HuiH-rstitlous to Marry. A wedding feast was spoiled on Friday evening last at the residence of i Sergeant Thomas Nagee, all on ac count of the superstition of the groom, who refused to be led to the altar on ; a Friday. The groom in question is a motorman on the Ridge avenue trolley line and the prospective bride a good looking twenty-year-old 185-pound belle who resides in the Sergeant's house. Mr. "Mororman" refused to enter the house, although everything was prepared for the ceremony, and , the preacher and guests all present to enjoy the wedding. Under a neigh boring lamp post the intended bride and her intimate friends stood for an j hour coaxing the groom to put aside i his superstition, but without avail. He, however, compromised by fixing another date for the wedding. He ' settled upon Wednesday, which would be in the middlo of the week and lucky for everybody.—Philadelphia Record.

More than the Wash- | lngtonlans themselves, they have seen the wonderful progress of Washington for by Tisits at Intervals—some of j them extending over years—they hava ! met with some contrasts which tell the story to the spectator more thoroughly than constant living in the city could do.

It has long been the custom of funerals the world over to proceed slowly; not so, however, with funerals in the outskirts of Brooklyn. The other day in that city a funeral was spinning along when the hearse drivel carelessly ran over a boy's bicycle and ruined it. The policeman, who gave chase, over* hauled the hearse, climbed up on the box and arrested the driver for his recklessness. "All you people follow me!" the po liceman shouted to the drivers of ths carriages in the funeral cortege. Thereupon ho turned the horses toward the police station and started them at a trot.
