Tuba BlU and Jef. .
The Iterruption of Jeff's "nightwatoh"
was occasioned by an accident which pre
vented the progress of the lloneer coach,
which ought to have passed that point somte
time previously, but winch, had been
delayed by the storm, and finally been
brought to a stand-still in about four feet
of rushing water some thousand yards
away fron the inn. There were only three
passengers-a thin, meek-looking gentle
man, named M1aylield, with his wite and
daughter. Jeff, on hastily springing from
his bed and resuming his boots found Mr.
Alaylleldtaud the driver of the coach, Yuba
Bilt, appealing to him, each in his own
tashion, for assistance. . The driver had
drawn up the coach into a safe position
amidst the waters, and had Luken out his
team. He and Air. Mayfield had then
waded out, and made their way to the
"I11alf-Way Inn," and Jeff was now re
quested to lend a hand in fetching up the
ladies. Mr. AMaylleli's company on his
errand was felt to be unnecessary. Yuba
Bill-who, by the way, is a decided char
actor, witti something of the quaint and
oracular Alir. Welter, senior, in him, coin
biued with Yankoe smartness-with undis
gtui;-d contempt for the city gyntiemaas
wat of physique, sununarily dismissed the
idea of ia lending any assistance. Ac
cordingly, Yuba Bill and JejY went oil to
fetch the ladies.
The meek man sat down helplessly in a
chair Indicated by Bill, who at once strode
after Jeff. In another moment they were
both fighting their way step by step against
the storm, in that peculiar, drunken,
apasmodic way, so amusing to the spectator
and so exasperating to the performer. It
was no time for conversation, even inter
jectional profaniity was dangerously ex
haustive.
Tle coach was scarcely a thousand yards
away, but Its bright lights were reflected
in a sheet of dark, sIlent-water, that stretch
ed between it and the two men. Vading atn
splaslhing, they soon reached it., and a gulley
wherd the surplus water was pouring into
the valley below. "Fower feet o' water
round her, but can't get any higher. So
ye see she's all right for a month o' sich
weather." Inwardly admiring the perspi
cacity of his companion, Jeff was about to
open the coach door when Bill interrupt
ed.
"I'll pack the old woman if you'll look
arter the darter and enny little traps."
A female face, anxious and elderly, here
appeared at the window.
"That's my littie game," said Bill, soti)
"Is there any danger? where is my hus
band'?" asked the wonion, timpiia tien3ly.
'"1Ez to the danger, ma'amInI--tIar ain't
any. Yer oz safe here czye'd be in a 8ac
raniento steamer; ez to yer husband, he
allowed I was to cone yer and fetch yer ip
to the hotel. That's his lookout!" With
this cheerful speech Bill proceeded to make
two or three ineffectutal scoops into the
(lark interior, manifestly with the idea of
sccoping out the lady in question. In an
other instant he had canght her, lifted her
gently but firmly in his arms, and was turn
ing away.
"Bitt my child i-my dainughter !--she's
asleep," expostulated the woman; but Ifill
was already swiftly splashing through the
darkiiess. Jeff, left to himself, hastily ex
anineid the coach. On the back seat a
slight. small figure, enveloped in a shawl,
lay notionless. Jeff threw the bear skin
over it gently, lifted it on one arm, and
gathering it few traveling bags and basketa
with the other, prepared to follow his
quickly disappearing leader. A few feet
f romt the coach th.e water seemed to deepen,
and the bear skin to diraggle. Jeff direw
the figura up higher, but in vini.
"8xis," lie saidt, softly.
No reply.
"Bis," shaking her gently.
There was a slight mnovenment wit hini lie
wrappilngs.
"'Couln't. ye climb up on my shouiler,
honey? Trhat's a good child I''
There were one or two spasmodic jer'ka
of the bearskin, and, aided by .1 elI, thew
bundle wa presentty seated oni his shout
decr.
-"Are you all right niow, sis?"
Something like a lauigt came from the
bear-skin. Then a chlish voice saidi
'"Thank you, 1 think I am!"
'Ain't uafraid you'il fall off?''
"A little."
Jleff hesitated, It was beginning to blow
again.
"'You couldn't reach down andl put y-our
arm arouind my iieck, could ye, honey ?''
"I'' am afraid not! "-although t here was
a slight, attempt to do0 so.
* "No?"
"No!"
"W~ell, then take a good holt, a tirmi,
strong holt o' my hair! D~on't be aifraid!l
A small h~and timidly began to riunpige
in Jeff's thick 'curls.
" 'Take a lirmn hoht ; thar, just back o'
my neck. That's right."
The littlo hand closedl over half ai (dozen
curls. T1he little lgture crowed and giggledl.
"'No*, don't you see, honey, itf i'mi

st rict seclusion, the fol lowinig remar-kable
arrangement has been made. Every even
ing at nine o'clock during summer, anid at
an earlier hour In winter time, the city
gates of Saoul and other towns are closed
at a given signal. TIhereupon all men are
boundi to leave the streets, which are aban
donedl to the women for the purpose of
recreation and promlenadling. Any male
finding himself, by accident, belated in the
- thoroughfares, is sure to hurry to his house
as fast, as possible, without looking up, or
lowering theo fan held before his face, for
severe punishmnent wvould fall upon any
* person darIng, in the face of the stringent
prohibition,- to molest women by so inuect

How it Was Done.
Many persons have been amused any
mystinied by the late Robert Holler's
second-sight performances. The trick
consisted in taking a watch, or other
article, from some person in the audi
once, which Holler wouldi hold, in his
hand while a blindfolded confederate at
a distance would describe everything
about it very minutely, even to thc
name of the maker, the iwmiber of the
watch, the numbor of jewels, etc. All
this was very mystlfying, and almost
comipelled a bellof iII clairvoyance or
some magnetie power. Mut a former
pupil and confederate of Hellor's has
explained the whole matter In the CIn
cinnati Times. It consisted of an In
genlous alphabetical arrangement of
short questions, the irst letter of which
represented ani object or else another
letter, so that by a series of questions
the name of the object was spelled. In
short, the questions constituted a sys
tem of telegraphic ciphers by wh ich
lellcr could convey any information
and dictate any answer lie desired to
his assistant. All that was nOCCsary
was a thol ough mastery on both sides of
the cipher and the' key. It will be re
membered that Heller used to close this
exhibition by seating his confederate
oi a stool with hils back to the audi
ence, throwing his handkerchief over
hiis head, and then have him describe
objects without any questionls at all.
The assistant explains this part of the
performance: "As soon is my back
was turned to the audience, and a large
silk handkerchief thrown over my head,
the stool oin which I was seated, con
talning a hollow leg, wats placed direct
ly over a hole in the stage. A rubber
pipe was passed i) which connected
withi a tini tibe runnibig underneath the
stage to the back of the curtain. The
assistant saw through a hole in the
curtain allarticles which were held up,
and coniveyed the iltelligence to me
through the pipe. None but large ar
ticles, such as hats, umbrellas, sticks,
etc., were taken, and as this always
closed the second-sight part of the per
formanee, it was clear to the mind of
all 'that it wasn't done by (uCestions.' "1

HUMOROUS.
'E
ONE terribly stormy night In bleak tl
December, a United tates vessel was C
wrecked off the coast of Jersey, and 1
every soul save one went down with 8
the (oomed craft. l'his one survivor a
seized a floating spar and was washed 1
toward the shore, while Innumerable d
kind hearted fellows of the Camden b
and Amboy Railroad clustered on the t
beach with ropes and boats. Slowly
t.e unhappy mariner drifted to land, 8
and as lie exhaiistedly caught the rope
thrown to him, the kindly natives h
uttered an encourauing cheer. t
"You are saved I" they shouted. )
"'You are saved, and must show the 9
conductor your tickets." L
With the sea still boiling about him, 8
the drowning stranger resisted the I
efforts to haul hilim ashore. 1
"Stop I" saig he In faint tones. "Tell 3
me where I am 1 What country is
tihis?"
They answered "New Jerscy."
Scarcely had the name been uttered
when the wretched stranger let go the 11
rope, ejaculating as lie did ao, "I guess -
I'll float a little farther I" a
lie was never seen again. )
PoLrrENKas to ladles is justly consid
ered one of our national attributes, but
while the native citizen keeps up a t
staiidard of gallantry, the Imported t
article sometimes works defectively.
A passenger in a crowded street car, t
observed the entrance of a main follow
ed by a woman, and seeing that she
looked tired and weal, lie conlderately
arose and offered her his seat. Before
she could take It however, the man had
(ilotly filled the vacancy. "Here,
just come out of that," said the passen1- V
ger, "I didn't give my seat to you, but
to that lady." To which the fellow re- )
plied, without offerIng to move: "0, g
yah, dot is all right-dot lady is mein 81

A suonr time since, a distinguished
mani of letters was taken by a friend to
tlie house of a lady who is of a literary

together a most select party to meet the
enminent writer. But his emluenec
turned out to be particularly shy, and
scarcely opened hlls Ioutl the whole

was calling on his late hostess. "Next
