Liouton ant Atkinson says: Thoro is nothing that moro conduces to make a gootl, truo. and loyal soldior than to inoulcato in him lovo and ro spoot for the' ling ho has sworn to up hold and dofond. To bring about' this end thoro aro cortain ceremonies in tho army that aro intondod to im press tho wearors of tho uniform with tho dignity of tho flag. Ono of thoso coromonies is called tho "Escort to tho Color," und it in tho iinost and most impressive of all military obsorvancos. Evory rogimont corrio*, two lings: ono tho national, tho other tho regimental, whioh carrios tho number and name of tho rogimont.

It is whon tho rogi mont pnrados, and those flags aro to bo brought to tho troopH, that tho oseort to tho color is carried out. When tho rogirnont baa formed lino on tho parado, tho eolonol dotoils a company to bring tho colors and es cort thom to their piuco in tho lino. Tho company mnrches in column of platoons, beaded by tho bund, which does not play as tho inarch down tho front of tho lino is nindo. Tho two color-sorgoants, old and faithful sol diers appointed to thoso desired pianos by reason of long service and military bearing, march botwoou tho two pla toons. Upon arriving in front of tho building ?yhere tho tings aro kept lino is formed, tho band standing on the right of tho oseort. Tho first lieutenant, with drawn sword, followod by tho two eolor-scr gonnts, who nro followed in turn by a sergeant armed with n rifle, enter tho building and receive tho lings. Whon tho eolor-boarora appeal, fol lowod by tho lioutonnnt and tho ser geant, they halt at tho on tran co and form lino, facing tho escort. Anns nro presented, ned tho field m us io (tho trumpeters) sound a thrilling call named, "To tho Color," during tho sound of which all stand motionless with arms at tho prcsont. After the sounding of tho color lins ondod, arms ?re brought to tho order, and then column of platoons is reformed, the two color-sorgoants taking inanes be tween tho two ijlatoona; and, thus guarded, tho march is taken u}), tho band playing a spiritod air.

Martin had sold what ho could of his provisions at Sknguuyi abandoned' tho romaindor mid startod in for the Klondiko with ICSB than iii sixty-pound pack on bis back. Being so "light," Iiis arrival attractod particular atten tion from camps of boatbuilders. His pack wan secretly examined to seo how much grub bo bad. . It WIIB noticed that he bad about twenty pounds ut' bacon among other thing?, but no sugar. Martiu camped back on tho side of tho hill in tho brush alone. lie must havo heard how scarce provisions aro expected to bo in Dawson City noxt wintor. Ho was susjiocted and watched, but it was not till after ho had tried to buy provisions. Tho second day it was neon that ho bad sugar for his ooffoo.und that night his puck was uncovered and a sido of bacon branded with tho private mark of ono of tho campors was found. A poor attempt had been, mado to oblit ?ralo tho mark. The inves?igiltoiil re ported tho factB to tho few campers who had not yet turned in, and, al though it was late, the ontiro camp Was quietly .aroused and a minois' mooting hold. " It was Hie general sen timent that an example should bo made of the thiof. Tho question was put. Tho reply to tho motion was an instantaneous rising to tho foot of every miner, and a crowd of about f>0 determined men moved off into tho brush, iii tho direction whore ^Martin's dying campiiro could be seen dimly nickering. Martin was asleep. Ile was unrolled roughly (rom his blank ets and stood blinking on bis feet. "Wo stand no stealing in this camp. Your timo hos come," Martin was tobi. Ile started to speak, but Va id nothing, and stood trembling from head to foot. "Do you want to leave a message to your friends?;' ho was asked. "No," said the man on tho brink of the grave. "Do you want to pray?" "No," said Martin; "If thoro is 'anything you want to say, say it quick," said tho spokes man. A slipknot had been made at the end of ? long paint er of tho boat, and the noose was putoyoV Martin's head. "Boys," said Martin, in a faltering voice, "you know how it is when a man luis mortgaged bis all, sturts for the Klondiko, and secs that ho can't get ibero, ll' I um not hanged my life is not worth much to me, anyhow, l'vo got lOOOpounds of stuff at ?Ska guuy, and I'll promise on my lifo, to carry it. in here for you." . "Enough of that. It would not save you if the stuff was boro." Martin was half dragged down to tho shore of tho biko.

J . Seo, who is in charge of Lowell Observatory, at Flagstrt?ti Arizona. Tho enure of tho twinkling of tho stars has alway* been a mystery, none ol' Hie theories advanced having stood tho tost of thorough investigation. Dr. Seo bas found tho cause to be tho presence in tho atmosphere rif innum erable little air currents or waves, wliich dart through tho air and causo a break in tho light from tho star.' The result is that to o beholder on the earth tho star has tho familiar appear ance of twinkling. Those little air currents can be distinguished through tho twonty-four inch t?lescop? very plainly on nights when this twinkling is observed most by ronioving tho eye piece of tho instrument.
