A new microphone. capable of giving distinct warning at a great distance or the approach of a steamship, has boon shown to the I ;;t*is Academy of Sciences. and its performances are to be made known by tests at Cherbourg. A 6iuiilar instrument, called the hydrophone. was devised several years ago by Commander Banarc. This consisted of a water-tight box. the vibratory plate being placed inside to avoid the too great pressure of the water, and this transmitter was immersed at some distance from land, with wires supported on a ship or on <hore. The transmitter was anecieu ai a distance of a mile or a mile and a half by the vibration of the screw of a torpedo boat, or the more regular beat of the screw of a large battleship, making it possible with two or three miles of wire to hear a vessel from four to five miles away.

Tb* other day a group of th>m started for a trollev ride. .Sitting near them was ! - . i I a well known professor ot languages, ! who occupies a chair at the University of Pennsylvania. The eminent scholar was v ry much surprised in a few moments to hear somebody behind him declare: "I say. boys, there's a devilish pretty girl at that window." This was spoken in excellent Kugllsb. A reply was Immediately made in French. Directly another remark emanated in the German tongue, and then the quartet suug together in low tones a little love couplet in Italian. When the surprised professor turned about to get a glance at his fellow passengers he was surprised to see four young m n with swarthy skins, bright black eyes and closely cropped mustaches. "They were dressed iu the height of fashion, and each wore a j gold-rimmed monocle. A small, enamelled Japanese flag in the coat lapel of each was the only thing that indicated their calling.

O OOO^O^QOOCOOiJOOOOOOCuVOOJX'O LTj unmindful of their destiny two ^l-'e "white flat . y ^ seeds were Zft >< dronned into a market basket, j1 i, which was on the '. arm of uu old mau ' ' ' going to his home ^ in a country town in New Fupland. "When the old man, whose name was Uncle Joe Jenkins, put down his basket in the kitchen, his little granddaughter Susie began to take all the vegetables and parcels out of it, for she was a helpful, tidy little girl, and always willing to use her hands. So Susie unpacked Undo Joe's basket, and just as she was about to set the basket upon a shelf, her brother Harry came running into the kitchen, crying as though his heart would break, because he had fallen down and hurt his baud Snssiw Uissnl his little dirty hand and gave him the empty basket to play with, saying: "There, darling, don't cry any more. Take this basket and go out in the garden and play that you were Uncle Joe going to market. You can find lots of things to put in your basket in the garden." So little Harry stopped crying and ran off with the basket. The very first thing he did was to tip it upside down and sit on it, for it was pretty heavy for such a little fellow?he was only four years old. While he sits on the basket, watching some little ants making their home in the ground, I must tell you what happened to those little seeds. When Harry turned over the basket, of course they fell out, and there on the ground they j 6taved, half hidden in the soil, a long, ioug time. ine wxnas uiew, the storms came, some clays were cool ^ and some were very warm. The sun ^ did all it could to keep those little seeds warm; the rain did all it could ^ to give them water, and the dear heavenly Father watched over all, and ^ finally made them grow into two ^ beautiful largo vegetables. What do you think they were? ^ Their color was dark orange and their ^ aizo was that of the largest watermelon you ever saw. They were so ^ heavy that it would have taken a very ^ i M a.l I HARRY AND HIS CASKET. tl strong man to lift them, and their 6j shape was round. Now, can you 1 guess what they were? If you cannot, I must go on with my story and " tell you. w Little Harry did not know anything 6 abc ut the seeds, and he went on play- P ing every day in the garden and in the house, and if he reads this story he ? will be much surprised to know that I u there was anything in the basket be-' ? fore he tipped it upside down. One day he ran to hia uncle Joe, u who was working in the barn, and eaid: "Oh, Uncle Joe! do come and tell me what these two yellow things J1 are that are out in our garden; they b are the color of oranges, only so drsfile big. Come, come quickly, Uncle Joe. I never saw such tunny *1 big things growing in our garden be- J5' fore." b So Uncle Joe left his work, and went with the little boy to see the i ^ wonders. When he looked at them P he said: "Why, Harry, have you never seen anything like these be- 81 fore?" t] "Xo, Uncle Joe; I'm sure I never , ^ did. What do yon call them, aud 1 r; what are they good for?" "Well," replied Uncle Joe. "they b are called pumpkins, and when I was . a little boy, we used to have whole fields full of them, and at Thanksgivingtime mymother (yourgrandmother; you remember her, don't you?) used to have a lot of them made into pies ? ? - it : l : ?. ana laris. uii, my: xiarry, ib juat i makes my mouth water when I think ' about it." "Well, Uncle Joe," said Harry, "whv can't we have a Thanksgiving like the one you used to have? Won't these two pumpkins make lots of pies?" "Yes," replied Uugjo Joe, "indeed. | they will, and we will look up the old ; cook book and have a real old-fash- > ioned Thanksgiving " That very eveniug, after the tea , things were all cleared away, Uncle Joe called Susie and Harry and good I old Aunt Martha into the sitting room. ! jHarry's father and mother were dead, j and Susie and Harry were living with I I *_ T llit ir uncie arm uiuu. A ilSow, Martha," said Uncle Joe, li "put away your knitting, for we want a you t3 help us; these little ones have tl never seen a real, old-fashioned ; Thanksgiving, and I want to have a " good time for them here while you a and I are spared to help them enjoy A it." Aunt Martha looked up from her a knitting with a bright smile and a h happy look in her blue eyes, as she p replied: "Yes, indeed,I will help you, a for I was thinking to-day, Joe, of all i u the fun and frolic yon and I used to | ti \ STUFFED KIE Jlfjul mum imf^ WILLIE'S DREAM AFTER TI ave at Thanksgiving time -when we ere little." 4 "Make out a list of names," said nclo Joe, "of all your relations, aud ion send them notes of invitation to imo and spent Thanksgiving Day ith us; those who come from a great istance must stay over night, and ley must all stay in the evening, to lat we may have games, music and mtra dances after our feasting." So le invitations were written and sent > all the relations,both old and young. The next day Uncle Joe called [arry to go with him to bring in the vo big pumpkins. But what a disppointment it was to find only one umpkin; they looked all over the arden, in the field adjoining, in the arn and in the carriage house and ellar, but the lost pumpkin could ot be found. "Well, Harry," said Uncle Joe, "we mst make the best of it. We can ave plenty of squash, apple and linco pies, not omitting the Thanksiving plum pudding." Harry looked as though he wanted ) cry, so] his uncle took him by the and, saying: "Let us take a look at le three big turkeys, and give them lentv of corn before they are killed >r our dinner, poor things!" So they went to the barnyard and sd all the turkeys and chickens, and len Harry went with his uncle to the illage store to buy nuts, raisins, pices, lemons and many other good lings for Aunt Martha. That night, when Harry went to ed, he was very tired and his brain as full of thoughts about Thauksiving, but especially about the lost umpkin. Just before midnight he earda little noise beside his bed, and tiny voice said: "Little boy, little oy, we have your lost pumpkin. Do ou want to know where it is?" "Oh, yes, ye3!"said Harry, sitting p in bed. "Very well," said the charming lite creature (she was a tiny fairy amed Goldie-Good). "We fairies elped a good little girl named Cinerella to take your pumpkin into her onse, and her fairy god-mother (our ueen) has turned it into a beautiful r\np]? fnr Pindprn]la t.n ride in to the all. This is the first night of the all, but, after to-morrow night, if ou look carefully under the green unipkin vine in your garden you will ml your pumpkin there again all afe and sound.

"Ci , ves, I suppose you know all bout it," replied Harry, "but I do : ope she won't forget to send back my umi'Icin when she is done with it," nd hen Harry lay down, put his h&ud ndi r his cheek, aud slept soundly unil miming. >'S NIGHTMARE. U I IE THANKSGIVING DINNER. 1 I The next day he did not tell any one about the fairy or the pumpkin, | but after auother night he went out | and looked very carefully among the green leaves, and there, sure enough, 1 he found the pumpkin, hidden completely in a nest of leaves and vines. < U r\ rtar'tx o all rm f r\ f irvTr on/I ran infn no v. J^J, the bouse, exclaiming: "The pumpkin's found, the pumpkin's found! Cinderella didn't keep it. Wasn't she ) a good girl to send it back again?" "Why, what are you talking about?" i 1 said Aunt Martha, and Susie said: ; "Why, Harry, are you crazy? We i don't know anything about Cinderella; 1 we only know that you have lost your pumpkin." "Oh, no, I haven't, Susie," said Harry, "it's right there now, ail covered over with vines and leaves." ( Aunt Martha and Susie went to the garden, and there they found the J pumpkin, looking so handsome and golden in the sunlight. "Well, well, J I never," said Aunt Martha, and Susie i clapped her hands. "Why didn't you and your Uncle Joe use your eyes? Of course it has been here all the ime." "Oh, no, it hasn't," replied narry, "for Cinderella borrowed it to go to the ball in." "What?" said Aunt Martha. "Why, Harry," exclaimed Susie, "you are FOUXD AT LAST. ( growing crazy; do come into the house and tell us what you are talking ! about." So they went back, and there sat Uncle Joe reading his newspaper. Harry climbed up on his uncle's lap and told him all about the pumpkin, and ended by saying that Aunt Martha and Susie would not believe him when he said that the fairy god-mother had borrowed his pumpkin. "Don't they believe that?" said Uncle Joe. "Xo," said Harry; "do you?" "Yes," said his uncle, "I believe it just as much as I believe auy dreams that little boys have." "Why, what do you mean?" said Harry. "Did I dream it?" "Certainly; and I can tell you how you happened to have such a dream. Don't you remember that your Aunt Martha let you eat a little pumpkin tart that she had made for you, so that you might know just how the Thanksgiving pies were going to taste, and, as you were not in the habit of eating tarts or pies, it made you feel rather uneasy, aud you slept in dreamland, instead of the quiet, peaceful land of nod.

The next day the big pumpkin was brought into the house and was made into many little pies and tarts, which were enjoyed very much by all the uncles, aunts and cousins when they came to dinner. Every little cousin heard the story of Harry's dream, and Aunt Martha gave them ail a tiny 1 pumpkin pie to ??rry home, and the children cailc4 them "Cinderella 1 Dies.'* , MS DIE IBIM / Vants an Arbitrator to Interpret Some Parts of the Protocol. 'HREE CHILDREN CREMATED. t Was the Work of Fiends?A Persimmon Tree Falls Victim to Nejro Soldiers Venpenance? Anti-Anncxationists Meet Washington (Special}. ? The last taragraphs of the long translation of he Spanish note, which was presented o the American peace commissioners, vere deciphered at the State Departnent Saturday evening. It appeared hat in addition to the long argument vhich was intended to show that the vord "disposition," used in relation to he Philippines, meaut something else, he bpauish note did include a proposition to submit the Philippine clause >f the protocol to the interpretation of of an arbitrator. There are several natters of real importance, though not ranking with the Philippine question, to be treated by the commissioners, coat the instructions to the Americana ire not to call up those at present, or until the main pending issue relative to the Philippines has been settled, in order to avoid complicating the proceedings. One of these subjects concerns the restoration of trade relations between the United States and Spain. At the beginning of the war, Spain terminated all of her treaties with the United States, and if the two countries ire to get along amicably, even after the declaration of peace, there must be working arrangements in treaty form for tbe protection of trade interests, equalization of tariff charges, the regulation of extradition and suoh subjects as are usually included in treaties of trade and commerce and amity. With a view to bringing matters to a speedy conclusion our commissioners, by direction of the President, will lay before the Spaniards tile final and irrevocable demands of this country, allowing a specified time in which our conditions may be either accepted or rejected. This ultimatum, it is understood, involves all that ha< thus far been contended for, including the surrender to the United States of the entire Philippine group, and also names the amount of cash which thil government will pay Spain in consideration of her expenditures on account of * pacific improvements and betterments in the island of Luzon. The amount of cash payment is not known, but there is a basis for the belief that it is approximately $40,000,000. Rioting in Macon. Macon, Ga., bad an incipiant riot caused by negro soldiers. Some one pointed oat to the negroes a persim- t mon tree on which a negro was hanged ^ nine years ago, and this excited the negroes to snch a state that they fired a thousand shots into the tree, and then cat it down. At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Dave ltiley, the ownner of the land on which the tree stood, CAme along and the negroes started at him, yelling: "Burnhiml" Mr. Riley was in a buggy and got away. The negroes then went to Cramp's Park, a suburbau resort, for the purpose of destroying it. Henry Berkner, the watchman, attempted to drive them away, but ho was assaulted and hie pistol taken away from him. At night a negro sentinel shot and fatally wounded another negro. A Change of Dynasty. A carious report iu regard to Spain's future government is current in diplomatic circles in London, which from its source, is entitled to weight, that thoro will be change of dynasty, but a peaceful change, 'lho Queen Regent is said to be convinced 01 the hopelessness pf her son ever reigning and has, upon the advice of tue Emperor of Austria, decided, soon after the peace treaty is signed in paris, to qnit Spain with her family, and Don Carlos will be proclaimed King. Everything is reported to be ready, and the army and clergy are alleged to be eager for the change. According to the programme, Don Carlos, as soon as things ore running smoothly, will abdicate in favor of his son, Don Jaime. A Shocking Crime. A special from River Junction, Fla., says: Three unknown white men went to the house of Andra Shackleford, farmer living about five miles above here, in Decatur county, Georgia, and demanded food from his wife. She was alone with her three little childron, and offered bread, sftring it was all she had. With an oatri they demanded ineut. She became frightened and fled to the woods, The tramps caught the three little children and set tiro to the house roasting the little ones to death. A Fight in Manila. A special from Manila says threa Filipino natives hired a carriage and afterward became engaged in a dispute with the driver regarding the fare. Some members of the American military police attempted to arrest the natives, bat the latter resisted and Ser- geant Price, of the Minnesota regiment, was stabbed and killed, and three other American soldiers. Maher, Montgomery and Hoyt, were wonnded. Maher shot one native dead. The others were arrested. Mil Rush Orders for Vessels at the Navy Yard.
