PrC::ently he saw an electric button on the side of the room, and he put his thnmb on it. The effect was electrical in every sense of the word. Through the ceiling. down the stairs and from every other direction firemen came running and falling. the horses rushed out of their stall:. and, in short, aii the machinery of a : odern engine house was instant ly in motion. Amid all this uproar stood the iuno cent old gentleman, who did not sus pect that he had touched the fire alarm until the men clamored around him for information as to the locality of the fire. Then he said mildly, "I should like to buy another ticket for the ball, if you please." The situation was so ludicrous that there was a general shout of laughter, and the old gentleman bought his ticket, and the engine house resumed Its former state of quiet-Exchange.

A SURPR SED SWORDSMAN. ludge Goffe's Play With a Bragging Fencing Master. A fencing master appeared in Boston ne winter in the seventeenth century .nd had erected a stage on which he trutted up and down at certain hours, efying any and all to engage in sword lay with-aim. After this had gone on for several ays and the man's boasts had be ome insufferable Judge William Goffe nd Edward WhaIley, the famous Eng s political refugees, disguised them elves in rustic costume and appeared efore the alleged master. Goffe held 2 one hand a cheese wrapped in a apkin, which he used for a shield. nd carried a mop which he had soak LI In muddy water as he passed a pud Ie. Thus equipped. the judge mounted 2e stage. The fencer railed at him r his impudence, asked him what usiness he had there and ordered him >begone. The judge stood his ground. 'hen the gladiator made a pass at him rith his sword to drive him off. The idge received the sword in his cheese nd held it there till he had drawn ie mop over the professor's faae and teared him with mud. Another lunge by the enraged maitre d'armaes 1sulted similar'y, this time the juidge oking the mop into his eyes. This geration was repeated a third time. Then the maddened fencing master ropped his ordinary sword and grab ed up a huge broadsword. Thereurnon 10 judge said: "Stop. sirl Hitherto, you see, I have aly played with you and not attempt 1 to do you harm, but if you come at te no~w with the broadsword know tat I will certainly take your life!'' The master was impressed by the rmness with which the judge spoke, >r he dropped the point of his weapon ad exclaimed: '"Who can you be?

Peculiar Rites of the Hopi and the Navajo Tribcs. Marriage ameng the Topi, a tribe of the Pueblo Indians, is an institution regarding which those most concerned have least to say. When the parents of a girl find it expedient for her to get married, they look up an available man and negotiate with his parents. After the matter has been arranged the principais are notitied. The girl goes to the home of the groom's parents and grinds corn for them for three weeks, while the groom makes a kind of sash for the bride. Then one morn ing at sunrise they both bathe their heads in cold water, which completes the ceremony. There have been in stances of the groom's refusing to go through the performance, which has then proceeded without him and been accounted valid, and several weeks later he has yielded and head his head bathed. The Navajo ceremony is much more elaborate and impressive, but then the -Navajo girls are much nicer. The reg ular tariff on a Navajo girl entering the port of matrimony for the first time is twelve horses. On the second occasion the tax is nine horses, while subsequent entries are free. This is not purchase money. but is merely a tribute of respect to a mother'-in-lawv and a token of apprecia tion of the care and expense involved in bearing and rearing the lady, aI recognition'not unworthy of considera ilon by civilized grooms. On the other hand, and deserving of great condem nation, is that law of many tribes, un written. but of much sanctity, that a man and his mother-in-law shall neveit moet after the cerem'Lony.-A. W.

As to a lion's method of attack Fred crick Courteney Selous says in his book: "As a rule, I think, a ilon seizes a sleeping man by the head, and in that case, unless it is a very old and weakly animal, death must usually be: instantaneous, as its great fang teeth will be driven into the brain through the thickest negro skull." Similarly, when a lion attacks ani animal it tries to get at the head or the throat-at the vitals of the animal. Says Mr. Sclous: "'My experience is that when a single lion tries to kill an ox or a buri'alo it invariably seizes it near the muzzle with one paw and usually succeeds in either breaking its victim's fleck or causing it to break it itself by its own weight in fallIng. When several lions attack an ox or a buffalo they will often bite and tear it all over and take a long time to kill it."I i;:s Lit: Liver Fi~ i.>r biliouserco. sick-I hendach~e.
