After a time, however, Philips marrici again, and I performed the ceremony; but. the son was not there, nor did I even notice his absence. In fact, he hall almost. entirely . slipped out of my mind, for with a large seaside curate, my time and attention were fully taken up with matters nearer home. I mention this last in the course of the fol- lowing story my readers should chance to think that a deep im ressir-o, previously made on my own mind, predisposed me to m what I saw, and afterward to regard it in a-supernatural li ht. I can not, there- fore, too cmphatical y repeat that I knew next tonothing about James Henry Philips, my friend's son ; that I had never seen him ; and seldom, if ever, thought of him at all. The next. thing I have to state is that when Philips married again, he gave uy his situation as coucbman, and settled with his wife in a street in my parish, callul Dunton Street. And here it is that the extraordinary part of my story begins. And yet, after .11, Ibave no midnight horrors to relate; but only something very curious and strange, and that happened, too, in the broad face of day. It was a hot and bright afternoon in sum- mer, and I was unrobing in the vestry after service in the church, when my parish clerk.a white-haired old man, with a merry, mischievous twinkle in his eye, ushered in a. lady, desirous, as he meaningly said, of an interview with me in private. llcr errand was this. She had heard that there was sick- in the town, and for her children’s sake (and they were lcgion) she wished to know If the report were true. If it were, for she was but a visitor. she would seek for lodgv ings elsewhere. I told her that I would make enqurica, and let her know, if she would'kmdly leave with me her name and address. She gave me her name, which I have forgottenâ€"let us say it was Mrs. ’I‘imidityâ€" and her address was Duutou Street, a place already mentioned in this narrative. Now in Danton Street there lived at that time, among others" three persons in par- ticular: viz, my friend Philips; my new acquaintance Mrs. Timidity ; unl an old lady namedJackson, with whom I was out gagcd that very afternoon to drink tea. Oll' then I set, after service in church, like a boy let loose from school, for Mrs. Jackson's house in Duuton Street, which I very soon reached. As if it were only yesterday, I remember perfectly well walking down the broad, bright street in the broad, bright afternoon. And in going to Mrs. Jackson’s nbodc, Ihad to pass the house of Philips. I remarked indeed that all his window-blinds were carefully drawn down. as if to screen the furniture, of which his wife was inor- dmutcly proud, from the dcspoiling blaze of the afternoon sun. I smiled inwardly at the thought. I then left the road, stopped to the side pavement, and looked over the area rails, into the front court below. \Vhy I did so, I can not exactly say. A young man, dressed in dark clothes, and without a but, and apparently about twenty years of age, was ntunding at: the door beneath the front steps. 0n the instant, from his likeness to my friend Philips, I seemed to recognize his son. “In both stood and looked very hard at each other. Suddenly, however, be ad- vanced to that art of the area. which was immediately be ow where I was standing, fixed on me a. wide, dilated, \viuklcss sort of stare, and bolted. The desire to speak was evidently legible in his face, though notlung audible escaped from his lips. But his eyes spoke; every feature in his countenance spoke :â€"spoko as it were a. silent language, in which reproach and pain scclucd equally intermingled. At first I was startled : then I began to feel angry. “ Why," I said to myself, “ does he look at me in that mun~ nor?" At last, annoyance prevailing over my surprise, I turned away with the half- muttorcd thought: ” lIo certainly knows me by sight as africud of his father, and yet has not the civility to salute me. I will call on the first opportunity and ask his reason for such behaviour." I then pursued my way to .\lrs. Jackson's house, and thought no more of what had just occurred. 0n the next day, Monday, true to my appointment, I called on Mrs. Timidlty in Duuton Street, and relieved her mind of all unnecessary fears. On my way home, how- ever, finding myself thus inadvertently in the neighborhood of l‘hilips' house, and fccl~ ing certain in my own mind that it was I‘lulipa' son I had sscn, Idetcrmiucd to call on him at once. My haul indeed was ac- tually on tho kuocker to seek admittance, when the thought struck mc that I had an- other engagement for live o'clock: and as it was close upon that hour, I gently replaced the knocker,snying to myself as I turned again to the street, that. I would make a point. ofscciug the young man before the week was out. Next day was Tuesday; and out of sight was out of mind. 0n \Vcdncsday it was my turn to olficiatc at the local cemetery, I went there in due course, and read the service over a little girl; and was preparing for in- stant departure, when the sexton informed me that there was another fuuu:al still, but that tho hearse audxuourucrs had not yet arrived. On my asking who was to be bur- ied. I war told that it was a young man from my quarter of the town, who had died of consumption. I can not give the rmaozi, but immediately I fell. startle-l and ill 3' case. It was not that I had the Ic:.st at the fact that any one should have din], of such a slow image in my p.1rxsh,but without my kuowlcdgv. Accordingly,l waited impatiently for the arrival of the funeral corn-gt, which I behold approaching in the distance. As soon, thcn, as it sto ped ‘ at the cemetery gates, I asked without I clay for the registrar's certificate. I took it at once with eager. outstretched hand; I open- ed it immediately; and to my surprise, my barrenâ€"I no going to say, terrorâ€"my cycs fell on the mails, "James lleary Philips, aged twenty-one years."

It says that, in Ire- land, seaweed ssan article of food is not newto the pie who dwell along the coasts. In t e very best of times they eon- sume aconsidenble amount of the choicest varieties for medicinal purposes. That which has the greatest popularity grows luxuriantly upon rocks that are submerged during the high tide. The saving process is a very simple one. At low tide the wives and da ' of fishermen gather it in baskets spread it in such a way thatit will catch the sun. The effect of this treat- ment changes its greenish color to a dark purple, an the western coast the people call it dilusb and sell it to summer visitors. As an appe- tizer it is considered very effective. It is a common sight at the western watering- plaees to see the children munchingit during the midday airings on rock and heath. But as the effect of this kind of sea-weed is to increase rather than allay hunger in those unaccustomed to its use, the natives of the coast line cannot be expected to derive much nourishment from ib'as a continuous diet. As amatter of fact. they do not. A woman in the County Clare a few years ago, through the desertiou of her husband and her inability to walk to a village a few miles distant, was compelled' to subsist wholly-on sea-weed. She ultimately died of starvation, and the stomach was found to be almost full of sea-weed. In the County Doncgal, according to the latest cable re- port, the residents of the vicinity of Gwoedmorc. a little postal village, have been driven by the scantiness of provisions to make the principal meal of the day on sea weed. It is, therefore, not surprising that every house has one or more of its in- mates on the sick~list. If the kind of sea: weed which is known in this country as Irish moss and in Ireland as earragccn was more plentiful in Donegsl the sufferings of the people would not be so great. That is really capable of affording a much more nutritious food than any other of the five hundred or more varieties. Scores of peasant women live by gathering it from the rocks in summer. They spread it upon the grassy slopes near the ocean until it whitens and burdens in the sun, and then pack and ship it. It is the Irish “mild-cure” bacon â€"too valuable to be kept for home con- sumption. Carrageen is still used by well- to-do Irish families for blunc mange making. It is first steeped in cold water, then strain- ed and the liquor boiled in milk. \thn poured into molds, sweetened, and flavored with lemon or vanilla, it becomes as still as corn-starch, and {us more palatable.

Now, we learn from Dr. Klein that the cat which he watched had also indisputably established a. definite association between crumbs already sprinkled on the garden walk and sparrows coming to eat them; for as soon as the crumbs were thrown upon the walk the cat used to conceal himself in a neighbor’s shrub- bcry, there to await in ambush the coming of the birds.

Great care is taken to prevent the discovery of their indentity by the spectators and all are masked while they conduct the annual penance. The devotees often travel hundreds of miles to undergo the prescribed torture. Lo: Gficgos, a small Mexican village near Albquerque, boasts a body of penitents. The fact is known only by the brutal ceremonies taking place there every year. The cere- monies were inaugurated by an introduc- tory procession. containing about thirty men and women. The process of purification by torture began at 10 o'clock. Five men naked to the waist, barefootcd, wearing black robes, and hoods to completely con- ceal their indentity, were seen to issue from the above lodge house of the sect, led by the master of ceremonies, carrying a veritable cat-o-ninc tails. Two huge wooden crosses, weighing 250 pounds each, were placed on torturers. The sharp edges cutting iuzo the naked flesh caused the blood to sport out and drop to the ground. Ono peuitent pro- duced a sharp good, which he thrust into the flesh of his follow-sufferers from time to time while the procession moved up the street to a wild gibberish in Spanish. H‘Ilt- ing once crosses were transferred to other shoulders, the attendants applying the raw- hide whips merciless] , each blow taking ofi‘ the skin and bits of call. The procession took its way to the goal, half a mile away. norn word spoken, but just before reaching the goal, a. small adobe but, an ordeal was enacted which tried the nerves of the bold- est. For some distance before the. door cacti plant had been strewn thickly on the ground, and as the barefooted crossbearers approached it, one hesitated. Instantly half a dozen whips descended on his bare shoulders, and with a bound, ho sprang into the cacti, his every step and those of his followers marked with blood. As the torture grew more terrible the chant grew louder, and tho thongs fell with more vigor. lost sight of, scutiuels guarding the en- trance, and only broken whips and pools of blood bore witness to what had transpired within.

There is a. man employed at the Union corns " and the history of it reads like a. fairy Many years ago his grandfather leased 600 side of the line between Vermont and New York State. The land was regarded as so worthless that he was given a lease of 999 yearsâ€"practically a perpetual leaseâ€"for three barley-coma, being a. more form to make the contract valid by some considera- tion. It was his impression that the lands might contain valuable minerals; but after prospecting over the tract for some years be abandoned it, and it passed out of the recol- lection of his family when the old gentleman died. About two years ago his grandson, now nmiddlc-nged man, was examining old papers which had belonged to his grandfa- ther, and among them discovered the “bar- ley-corn” lease. He took it to his father, and at once started him to Vermont to in- vestigate the m'atter. The gentleman found that their claim could be established, and so set about learning of what value the tract was. He was surprised und delighted to discover that slate existed on it in almost unlimited quantities and of gcod quality. He had a quarry opened and put in opera- tion, and shortly afterward a railway was built which gave them excellent shipping facilities. It must not be imagined that they were left to undisputed possession. “'ucn they had demonstrated that the land was valuable, heirs of the original owners " A.

The four German officcls detailed to or- ganize the Sultan's army have, by permis- sion from Berlin, entered the Turkish scr- vicc, and flfiecn Turkish olliccrs are to join the German army for experience. “ And now,” said the gentleman, “we can sit down and do nothing. and take a clear $10,000 nyear out of those slate quarries. There is copper ore there, too; and “we are just now having assays made to learn whe- ther the ore is rich enough to pay for work- ing. If it is. of course we have a vastly better thing yet.” ..._ -_._...«->â€"..â€"â€"~» » ~â€" Drunl: Under Water. “ I once knew a diver, Tom Ilrintlcy by name, who, though a thoroughly competent man and agood fellow, was a little too fond TH é , GR AT of stimulants.
