PASSION FOR TRAVEL.

Juice Verne,
at the
ettiry of
ia an follows :
George Hatteras, tlie boro, is possessed
with a passion for travel. A Iriond of
the family, the organist Volsius, a divine
is Indeed upon as almost a
supernatural being, is unable to influence
him in spite of his eloquenoo and his sup
plications. The old Franeft danntps ‘
. teacher, Tortelot, a retainer of the Hut-
teras family, who is greatly venerated by
George, is not more snore ssful thoi
Volsius. In spite of all their endeavors
and all their prayers George is deter
mined to depart. He, therefore, goes to
Dr. Ox, who has invented a marvelous
elixir, and in company with Eva, his l>o-
trothed; Axel Waldomcr, a Dane; Tor-
telet, the retainer, and Dr. Ox himself,
he descends into the bowels of the earth
through the crater of Vesuvius. They
traverse vast and mysterious galleries
where they find not a living soul, but
faiMoftana el -liw
presence of a people who doubtless con
ceal themselves and watch the trailers.
George, always ready for adventure,
•tarts on a tour of observation and dis
covery. Suddenly Waldemer «tters a
cry. Ho is struck in the batik by a large,
curiously shaped stone. 'Whence conies
this projectile? By what unseen hand
has it been thrown ? They look on all
aides—nothing. Waldemer puts the
atone in his pocket, it will be a souvenir
of the centre of the earth. Meanwhile
Tartelet, astonished by the power of the
echo in theee subterranean regions pro
poses to hist it and logins to play on
nia violin, from which he is never sepa
rated. At the first stroke of his bow the
instrument gives forth tremendous
sounds; others rtwpond in the distance,
then increase ns thev approach. At this
moment monstrous Wings appear. They
are led by Dr. Ox, who is not seen.
They approach Eva, follow her and sur
round her; they are about to seize her
and bear her ofr, when old Lyden-Broko
unexpectedly appears.
Eydon-Broke, who is none other than
Vokius. the good genius of the pieces,
seizes Tartelot’s violin and begins to play
with so mueh soul and skill that the
monsters, charmed by his new Orpheus,
leave Eva to listen, then disappear at a
sign from the player. Saved from the
monsters, the travelers soon find them-
selves menaced by the flames. The flro
mounts up from the centre of the earth.
Sparks rain down upon them; torrents
’ « lava roll about them. Hero a very
effective ballet of fire spirits is intro
duced. George is dazzled, transjiorted.
■Li He had not hoped to see anything so
extraordinary. Nothing now prevents
hbn from returning to-tne earth to Jive
Bappily with his dear Eva. Lyden-
Broke (Volsius) triumphs. But Dr. Ox
tells George Hatteras that what ho lias

Why Thieve* Are So Skillful.
It is common to speak of the skill and
exploits of thieves as remarkable. It is
more remarkable that thieves "
coaiplish greater things than are record
ed of. them. The thief shqply follows
his Unde, making himself as tlwroughly
competent in it as if ho were learning
some other means of obtaining bread.
Those upon whom he prays are careless
and forgetful, while he is always watch
ing for an opportumty. Officers of the
law- are paid when they moke no arrests,
and there is little incentive (o catch a
thief: so that thieves, if they can guard
against the vigilance of the property
owner, which is rarely exercised os it
slioull l>e, have an oksy road to travel.
It is difficult to catch thorn ; it is diffi
cult to prove their crimes ; they go to
prison but a short time if they are eon-
viclud. and «-r.

Bojs and Girls.
Why do more boys die than girls?
For ('very hundred girls bom into the
world there are one hundred and four
boys, and it used to be imagined that the
extra four boys were supplied in order
to moot the extra wear and tear of life
which must be borne by the breadwin
ners of the world. But'the old thing to
whioh Dr. Biddle calls attention in a
medical contemporary is that tho extra
four per cent.* or boys is wiped out by
death before they attain the age of Jive
years. Why is this? Dr. Biddle makes
two suggestions—first, that tho greater
“waste” of boya maybe due to their
higher anmutem: and, secondly, that it
may he “due to the fact that our little
boys are given over to the tender mor
being reared by thoseriwho understand
them. ” “ Those who understand them ”

A St. Pctereburgh letter to the London
Globe Bay*:
Sorry,, indeed, even when death does
not come to put an end to his existence,
is the lot of tne convict who has succeed
ed in escaping from the mines of Eastern
Siberia*
Without resources of any kind, he
must beg ot rob his wav back to Russia.
The alternative of seeking employment
is one wliich often has disuntrous conse
quences. The convict of the lowest
type regards the Siberian colonist os an
inferior, and has a saying which de
scribes him an “blind for three days af
ter birth.” But the colonist has lus re-
voi'ge. He works the supercilious con-
ftet like a boant cJ burden, and gives
him ns littb rest and ns little food aft
possible. i
When wares ere i]t manded tho eolo-
n : ht has an original way of satisfying his
Inboreri The money is paid with A mur
mur, but, before the convict can get
clear, he falls dead, killed by A bullet
from the gun oi his cruel employer.
This method of payment is sometimes
eiirri.-d out on a large scale. It is adopt
ed iu the case of vagabond laborers who,
having finished their autnmn work in tho
fields, return io the neighboring village
to. be paid off. - - ' ^ ~
laborers allowed to depart with their
hanlly earned money. But they have
l-o sooner gone than tho pi-asant farmer
assembles his neighbors, afid having pro-
viil d th(*m with horses and firearms, the
whole party sallies forth in pursuit of tho
vagabonds.
The retiring laborers are speedily
overtaken; most are killed on the spot,
