The Katydid Orclnstra. An article in a recent number oi Science on the katydid orchestra is extremely interesting. The writer states that tiis is one instance in na ture of concetel and continued efforts of harmony. The katydids keep time, and are the only members of the in sect kingdom that do this on any ex tended scale. He says: "So soon as the sun has set and twilight is ad vancing, the katd:ids in t2e trees be gin to 'tune up.' The first notes are sattercd, awkwarl and without rhythm; but, if no wind is blowing, thousands soon join in, and from that time until daylight breaks there is no intermission. it is inarvelous that the organs can withstand this con tinual rubbiug for eight hours. By choosing out an insect close by and listening to it wione, I have convinced myself that the same insect keeps at it at least for hours at a time. Theso raspings are seldom three at a time, as the popular name would imply, but are the result of usually four or five, sometimes six, distinct but closely joined mov^ments." When a large number of k:ttyKiids are engaged in this musii l exercise, there are tho-e with louder :ones who see:m to occupy the positiou as leaders, or first violin ists. They hold the time measure often is spite of the wind, which usually stops the performance of the moro timid, and soon draw out the lost notes of the others once more in regular measure or beat.

A well-known doctor declares that mackintoshes and pneumonia are twins. Any rubber garment, whether of silk or wool on the outside, is a very warmn garment, and consequently there is a constant temptation to wear one with nothing in the way of a wrap underneath. But almost all mackin toshes are loo=e, with only sling sleeves or no sleeves at all, so that while they exclude dampness they freely admit the chilling wind just where the body is most sensitire. A long circular cloak of serge makes a better storm cloak than the most ex pensive imported mackintosh, and an ulster is best of all.-Chicago Times Her all. SNAKES c'AR.SS HER wHiLE SHE FIDDLES. iini: lrowu, the pretty daughter of wealthy parents, with a fine home on the banks of the Suwanee river, near Lake City, Fla., has found that she can charal snakes with her violin.

Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt, if we mistake not, is only the third lady of American birth to become a B3ritish neeress of the first rank-a Duchess. At preseut, it is interesting to note, seventeen out of our nineteen "reign ine" 1)achesses are un questionablyv British. The twvo exceptions are the Duchess of Devoushire and the Duchess or Fife, the onio of whom is German, and the other of whom, in view of the recent controversy, it mayn be best to describe as ".European." Of the seventeen Duchesses who are Brit ish, eleven are Euglish, (though ouc of them was born and bred in Szot land, and auothwr is au Anglo-Indian), five are Seattish, and one i-s Irish. Oi the eleven Ducehesses who are English, one is married to a I)uke who is Seot tish, one to a Duke who is almuosi Scottish, and one to a Duke who is Irish. Of the nyve Dutchesses who are Sottish. two are niarried' to Dukes who are English, and the Duchess who is irish is married to a Duke who is Scottish. It shoal be added that, al thbough there are only nineteen "reigu inz'" Duchese:4, there are (excliudinu roate)twenty-seven "reig.uin Dukes.

In the thick of the scrimmage half a dozen freshmen malde a riank movement andi came down on the enemy in the rear.

The most striking nigure in the So cialist Congress in Breslau was a tai womnan about forty years od ern a blac.k Sik skirt, a Sery red silik bonse and a huntress's hat. She was in e-tendance daily, and watched the debates with the eagerness of a zeal otis partisan. She has a curious and interesting history. She was born Duchess of Wurtemberg, and chris tened Pauline lMathilda Ida, and is a siter of Duike William,. of Wunrtem serg, a near successor to the throne. in iS80 a member of the royal family . tertm.+ r.c. a t.e en &mimi i at Carlsruh, and Professor Biermer, of Berlin, was summoned to attend the patient. Professor Biermer tranferred the case to his assistant, Dr. Willim. The young and handsome Duachess ( Pauline fell violently in love with Dr. Willim while he was attending the sick man, and insisted on marrying him. Prolonged family opposition ensued, which ended in her relatives giving their assent, finding they could not overcome the determination of the Duchess to becomo the doctor's wife. Pauline thereupon resigned all her dynastic rights and titles, and by royal decree assumed the name of Von Kirchlach, under which she married D Willim. The clergyman while performing the marriage ceremony was indiscree' enough to venture a re mark on the difference of the social position of the bride and bridegroom, whereupon the bride interrupted him and declared thrt she did not share the views expressed by the minister. On the contrary, she said, she looked up to her husband, whose social stand ing she regarded equal to :.er own. Dr. Willim eettlcd in Breslau, where he pracices his profession. His wife is noted for her benevolence, and Sends the greater part of the income from her handsome fortune in reliev ing the sick poor.

RUSI1ING THROUGH. The Family of the Lynched Party Can Get $2,000 from the County. The constitutional convention on Saturday gave a third rea-ing to the articles on declaration of rights and jurisprudence. A good many ordi nances were also dispo:ed of. The section relating to Iynchiugs was changed so as to allow the family of the person lynched to recover 82,t00 from the county having recourse upon the lynchers. The pro'isiou against "released" freight rates by railroads was stricken out. but passenger rates of such a character cannot be changed. A third member of the convention, Mr. J. 31. Scott, has died and not after noon session was held out of respect to his memory. At the night session much heavy work was done. The article on cor porations was completed and sent to its third reading, the section permitting new street railways to con' in and use the track of- established roads being stricken out. The article was sent to the committee on style and revision. The calendar was then tackled in an aggressive manner and sonie six ordi nances and the article on eminent do main were sent through. Things are in such shape now that there is no rea son why the convention canuot com plete its work on Mon.lay or Tuesday and get to Atlanta on Weduesday after noon after all. T1I DISPENSARY CLINCITER. Surplus Front Liquor License an'l 'Tax for t he Public Schools. The convention devoted most of its time Monday disposiog of the swall ordinances of the Seabrook and Rock Hill conuty scl:;mes wich were de feated after a considerai>le debate. The ordinance to iut conutie:s on a cash basis was killed. Monday afternoon the article on1 corporations was coiplcted and at night the article on education was giv en its final reading. The fight on both the higher educational institutions was read but things were left as they were in that regard. Senator Tillman got through the ..llwing. which will give the olionents of the ispensary a hard point to ittack when a tight against the law conies before the peo ple: "All the net ineoie to be derived by the State from the sale or liceuse for the sale of s,iritnons. mnalt. vious and intoxicating liquors and bever ages, not including so much thereof as is now or may hereafter be allowed by law to go to the counties and mu nicipal corporations of the State. shall be applied nually in aid of the sup plementary tax as p)rovirledl for ini the sixth section of this article; and if, after sneh applicatiou. there should be a surplus, it shRil be devoted to p~!e school puirposes and app)ortioned as the General Assem1ly muay determine: pro vided, however, that the said sulple mentary taxes shall only be levied when the profits aforesaid and from the sale or license for the sale of alco bolic liquors or heveraLg.s are not sufii ent to meet and equal ize the dii enes for w.hich the snid supplemu::st irv taxes are provided."
