$r1ngidg 'a Ded Naa-to Life.
A officer of the English line,
while pass through a native village,
aas annoy by the importunity of a
3ndoo , whom no rebuff seemed
to disoouoer
At longth, when the filthy vagrant
aeoonded h petition by laying his gruny
hand upon the Englisinman's arm, the
latter, foolishly giving way to anger, re
paid the freedom with a straightforward
blow from the shiuldei', de,ivered with
- such hearty good-will that the poor Iin
doo- fell like a log, to all appearance
dead.
Before the assailant could recover from
his bewilderment at this unlooked-for
catastrophe, a howling swarm of natives
came rushing to the spot, and with fran
tie cries for vengeance upon the mur
derer of their countrynan, dragged him
off to the local magistrate, carrying with
them as evidenco the body of the slain
man.
Matters might well look gloomy for
the prisoner, for the body showed not
the sliglhtesf sign of life, while the cud
p At hlimself, overwlolnied with horror at
t fatal consequciies of his monientary
passion, faltered and trembled in a way
that would have made any ordinnry judge
convicted hill on the sput.
But, happily for him, the inagistratc
was a veteran, whom no ConttempY,
however unexpected, . could find unpre
pared.
He heard the story to an end without
a word of conment, and then quietly re
marked that before passing sentence, he
wished to he quite certain that the man
was really dead. The Ilindoos broke in
with a terrible outcry at the idea of the
sacred remains being touched I y itn ui
believer.
Oh, I don't need to touch him,"
quoted the judge, coolly; " I have a
surer way than that."
Without appearing to notice the look
of uueasiness that began to cloud the
surrounding faces, ho drew forth a stick
of sealing-wax, lighted it, and let fall
the buridug drops upon the hare breast
of the corlpse.
Instantly the murdered ian started up
with an ear-piercing yell, lnd tossing his
arms frantically, rushed out and plllged
headlong into the river, while his iucon
solablo mourners vaniselid ahuost as
quickly in the opposite direction.
-Piinttd -hoes.
A gretttheauof Ile time of Wilm. Rufus,
called '$ohert the Horned, wore shoes
with long points, stuffed with tow, and
twisted ha a special forn. 'ihis fashion
took the fiaey of t111 o le of that
day immensely, ad!h points iitercased
yearly until the reign of Richard If.,
when they had to ho tied on the h ees of
the wearer, that lie Imight not heo enlciun
bered in walking. This tying wa. in the
case of a gontlcinan, by cbailns of silver
or silver-gilt. Ili Clhneer's 1 iile the 1Ipper
part of these sh1o1's was cut to imitato a
church window. Tih rank of the wearer
in thosc' days was knowi by tile length of
his pot,laines. " The men," says Para
din, "1 wore themn with at point before half
a foot long; the richer and iore (iiinent
personages wore themi a foot, and Princes
two feet long." By an act of the reign
of Edward IV.. the absurld length to
which the points attaied, was limited;
and no one under the rank of Lord was
to wear shoes more thaui tcen iinches long,
and all cobblers making tlhem were to be
fined and c.urod by the clrgy.

Russian Nihilista. For the first time in
her life it occurs to her that it might be
as well to undeistand the meaning of the
term "Nihilist." She consults the pro.

uiscusion goes:
" My dear, who are these dreadful peo
ple the Niluists?"
'he professor sniffs something and ad.
lusts his glases.
"The Nihilists my love?"
"Yes, my darling."
"They are Russian revolutionists, my
dear.
" I know that, stupid."
" Then why did you ask for informa
tion that you already possessed?"
" Why will you hb so provoking? I
want to know who they are."
" I have already told you."
" You told me nothing. They shoot
and stah people don't they, and blow ul
palaces and railway trains, and all that
sort of thing?"
" Exactly, Mrs. Fitzgoggles."
" Well, is that why they give them
such a funny name?"
"Funny! I see nothing funny in the
name."
" Good gracious, Fitzgoggles! You'd
fex a saint."
" Or a-ahem! fallen angel."
"Thank you, air. You're in a charm
ing humor this evening. I ask a simple
question--a very simple <uestion--and
raceive a characteristic rep ly."
" But what do you wish to know, my
eve?"
" What a question to ask! Have I not
already told you?"
" And have I not already answered?"
"No. I want to know why Russians
who shoot and stab and blow up palaces
and things are called Nihilists."
" They are not called Nihilists because
they shoot and stab and blow up. I
might call you a Nihilihts at that rate."
" Mr. Fitzgoggles, don't try to be sar
castic. If you must be a Bussian you
needn't be a boar!"
"If you must be a woman you needn't
be a tartar. There, there. Well, I'll
tell you, if you'll only listen."
" Thank you, sir; the information is

" Madam, you seem to enjoy your own
wit excessively. It is pleasant to see
that some one enjoys it."
" You seem to enjoy it vastly."
My dear, it is a wasto of time to
argue or explain with a woman."
" That is why you mor always try to
escape. Well, then, what is the meaning
of the word Nihilist?"
"Since you condescend to ask in an
intelligent manner, I will try to explain,
though I fear the explanation will never
get into your pretty head. A Nihilist,
miy love, is a person who belives in noth
Ing."
"In nothing?"
Absolutely nothing, and is resolved
on dcatroying everything that is."
" How shocking! Then why are so
many women Nihilists?"
"Upon my soul, I can't understand

nothing, naturally believe in nothing.

Tmrs term Glothamn, often applied in
mil derision to New York, was fIrst em
p loyed as a nickname by Washington
Lrvmi g. Tlhe name is not an invention,
as is often thought ; it is an actual par
lh of Nottingham, England, whose in
habitants were so p)roverb)ially rustic I
and stupid that they gained the irn
teal title of the Wise Men of Glothamn.
Many stories of their dlotishmess have
been told upon the Glothamites, one of
which is that they joined hnnds on a
certain occasion round a thorn-bush to
prevent the escape of a cuckoo. In or
der to confirm flhe tale, the bush-the
Identical bush--is shown to tourists in
that neighborhood. It is said that
King John, of Magna Charta memory,
intended once upon a time to go throughi
the parish for tho pm ose of buying a
castle and grounds. ~'ho Gothamites,
knowing that the royal visit would en
tail considerab)lo expenses on them,
pretended, when the monarch's nie
sengers appeared, to be occupied with
iome silly, ridiculous pursuit mnuch to
the disgust of the regal emaissaries.
-l'hoso repo rtcd to Johin whiat they had
4(een, andt he deehiared that he 01ould not
save a castle in a neighborhood where
mnch simipleons lived. Thereupon the
pariahioners shu'ewdly remarked, " More
rools, we wet, pass through (Gotham
than remai in it."
Oriental Women.
As time progresses, the condition of
the women of the Orient rapidly i
proves. Japan has takeni the lead in
this respect, and to-day Jmaaneso women
occupy a position and exert an influence
t hat fewv of themi would have dared dream
of .a quarter of a century ago. China is
begtuh the lesson, though more
slowly tinum Japan, and woman are enter
ing to a limited extenit mute the world of
bus51iess and( polities. Merchanita of Can
ton, who wouldl have secluded their wives
with the utmost eare a decado or two
ago, now permit them to be se, and,
what is more, they allow them to con
v'erse with other men. They travel with
thenm on the steanmers that navigate the
Chuinese rivers andl the waters along the
coast, and it is said that sonic of them
have gone so far as to allow their wives
to sit with them at the pubioe tables.
Simuilar progress is obsRervable among the
Simnso and otheir cas tern nations. 'The
world still moves.___

all my niight. But somehow it was a
very curious thing that the dust allus

Eugene Sue, in "Mysteries of Paris "
happened to choose a very respectable 4
street its the scene of some of t e worst
and most revolting of all crimes which
abounded in that book. The effect was
prodigious-rents fell, some of thobest
famimewmoved to other streets, and great
was the grief of the inhabitants that, for
no fault of thei- own, their neighborhood
was regarded as little better than infam
ous. At last it occurred to some clover
follow to have the nama of the street
changed. It was done, and all was soon
right again! The novelist was couquered,
and the residents wore as respectable as
ever.
