TWO MILES UNDEK GROUND.

ICxperu-nces of Reporter Wlio Wanted to Investigate Tilings. A rlinncr two miles under ground is something of ii novelty to the averago man. A Times reporter tried it recently and found that the experience was both curious and enjoyable after a fashion. lie was bound to see John Ball, a worker in the New Detinole mine, and it was just noon when he readied the entrance to the shaft. The cars had stopped running and the steaming horses stood by the entrance greedily munching their oats.

John Ball would not La out

until niyht. He worked two miles inside, so there was nothing for the reporter to do but to put ci the weigher's cap kindly olTercd to him and take in hi* hand a little oil lamp.

Tho reporter started at a brisk walk, and the inouth soon dwindled to a very small patch of lij^lit. His footsteps proilueed a very lonesome echo, and the hliaduw danced in (|ueer unsightly shapes along the Hour and sides of the corridor. Ili.T ey at last j^rew accustomed to the dai ntier.-,, and down the side passages he caught glimpses of lamps on the heads of men who had stopped working and vvere ealill .'dinner.

At latt the visitor came upon some miners in the branch heading. They directed him how t.. t,irn by the marks *n tin- props, and 111 teen minutes' walk through a ttr.iuel, aimut eight feet high and as many ide, brought him to anew heading, win re, seale.i on huge block of coal, in front of a solid wall of black diamond, sat John Hall, quietly eating his dinner. J'is lamp rested on the block of coal, and though the rellectiou fell full ujion him ho was so black from head to foot aa to be almost indistinguishable from his surroundings. It was the day after Thanksgiving, and his bucket was running over with the relics of the feast of the day before. Tho miner insisted on sharing his supply with the reporter, and soon both were engrossed in the same occupation. Tho reporter was soon convinced of one thing—dining in a coal mine is a success.

The tourist will never forget his rido out on tho reau of a loaded coal car. Hunching the main corridor Ilia car was coupled to others from other headings, and with three men at tho breaks our train was sentspinning down tho inclino. To keep hi3 balance on a sharp turn and dodge the ceiling when it came down very low occupied all his attention and energy. On tho train rushed, past headings, miners and horses, until way over the top of tho wriggling line of cars the reporter saw daylight gleatn like an electric flash. Tho brakes (fcero put hard down and tho wheels stopped, but such was the momentum that on tho train slid as over a greased surface for half a mile, and at last it shot out into the broad daylight just as tho night shift was coming to work. It was rapid transit, such as makes one's hair stand as erect as a pine forest.'—New York Times.

England'* nig Guns.

The great game of gunnery brag is over and tho authorities have thrown up tho sponge. Tho Victoria's guns are so defective that even theBritishadmiralty dure not send out tho ship to carry tho flng of the commander-in-chief on tho Mediterranean station. One of tho 110 ton guns is bent between the trunnions and the muzzle more than two and a half inches out of tho straight lino, and the worst part of the business is that tho Victoria and her sister ship, the SansDa-

rcil, will probably be hors do combat for a very long time, as there is no prospect of theso monster 110 ton guns being of any use, and it will bo a big job to alter tho turrets to suit smaller and more serviceable weapons.

Tho Camperdown, which has been selected to take the placo of tho Victoria, was supplied for tho maneuvers with three out of four guns which were defective. The inner tubes split during tho tost, but the authorities decided to admit it. At the conclusion of the maneuvers these three guns were ordered to be returned to Woolwich, and Admiral Rodney was requisitioned for three others to make the Camperdown fit for sea. We now have of first class battle ships ready for sea in all other respects the Howe, Rodney, Trafalgar, Victoria and Sanspareil waiting for guns. Is it not a shame and scandal?—Edmund Yates in New York Tribune.

Vomlerful Kljjurc*.

The inland marine, representing atiaggregate capital of $53,000,000, has carried during tho season now at its close, 102.000.000 bushels of grain from Chicago, 10.000,000 bushels from Duluth, G.700,000 tons of iron ore from the Lake Superior mines to the blast furnaces, and brought back 2,200.000 tons of coal from Buffalo, and 2,000,000 tons from Ohio ports. It has brought into Chicago 430,000 tons of general merchandise, valued at $50,000,000, and carried away 525,000 tons, valued at $10,500,000. Theso figures, vast as tliey are, represent only the business of the inland marine between Lako Erie and Lakes Michigan and Superior. The great lumber trade and the local trade of the five great lakes, each representing a '.raffle of many million dollars, are not included.—Chicago Trib-

Bogus Canviuback*,

To think that when wo havo been smacking our lips over tho toothsome and gory canvas hack it was, in all probability, only a redhead duck or, if it was a canvasback, it was not a genuine Chesajieaker, but a miserable frau' from Currituck sound which had been shipped co tho Chesapeake and then to Now York, not so much to deceive us in tho flavor as to deceive us ia tho price. I doubt if many of us could tell the Chesapeake from the Currituck bird except through our pocketbooks. The former are worth this winter $12 a pair, while the latter, when they are masquerading under another name, are worth from §4 to $6 a pair.—New York Commercial Advertiser. ...

Sparing Their Strength.

"Look at tlieso inen," exclaimed Harry Delmar, as ho pointed to some trackmen at work "It takes sis of them to carry that iron rail, and they move like snails." "They are sparing their strength," remarked tho father. "Well, I should say so," declared Harry. "Four of them could carry that rail with case." "Perhaps they could," replied his father. "They aro sparing their strength, and they ore wise."

Harry looked at his father, a faint expression of surprise on his face. "I notice that the foreman does not reprove them," continued his father. "Ho is satisfied that they aro doing an honest day's work. If they worked as you seem to think thoy ought to work, it is likely they would not bo horo to-morrow, or not on tho next day, at least They would break down. They must husband their strength so that they can work day after day without abatement. There is speed in metkvd, though it ma3' seem tedious. A quick fire soon burns itself out. The tortoiso boat tho haro in tho race. A rocket makes a blr fuss, but comes down a stick. A volcnno creates a groat uproar, but it remains still a long while afterward. Tremendous efforts aro soon spent. Tho 'pitching in'process does hot last long. is wise for us, my son, to spare our strength, whether we labor with our hands or bruins. It is tho secret of long sustainod effort. Tho energy in reserve is often tho energy that wins and wears." "I see now, papa, that I spoke too hastily," Carry said. "Tin men aro not shirking their work. Yes, they are wise."—Iinrper's Young People.

An Astonished Setter.

I do not vouch for the truth of the tale, but a man, whoso reputation for veracity is at least reasonably good, declares that ho saw on tho street in Boston, tho other day, an electric wire accident which was certainly singular. His attention was attracted by the barking of a rod Irish setter to an English sparrow, which was perched upon an electric light wire high abovo the beast's head. The animal had evidently boon amusing himself in the fruitless sport of chasing tho bird, and when it had taken refuge on high had endeavored to g*l some consolation out of yelping histily. Tho day was windy, and tho wire swayed to and fro, the sparrow apparently enjoying its swing, until in a fatal moment tho tail of tho bird came in contact with another wire near by. Then, in tho twinkling of an eye, the unlucky sparrow catno tumbling down stone dead at the feet of the noisy dog, who was so astonished at this sudden turn of affairs that he did not offer to pick tho creature up, but simply stopped barking oAd stood staring at his prey in astonishment.—Boston Letter in Providence Journal.

Life a Dream.

Oar waking life is but a connected dream. The solf is an unknown which gives birth to an infinite number of unknowns by a fatality of its nature. Science is summed up in the consciousness that nothing exists but consciousness. In other words, the intelligent issues from the unintelligible in order to return to it, or rather the ego explains itself by the hypothesis of the non-ego, while in reality it is but a dream, dreaming itaelf.—Henri Frederic AmieL

THE LOST SONG.

I plucked a wild flower from the river's brim. And drank awhile its faint but fragrant breath. I Then cast it forth upon tho ware iwnrlm,

And watched it, as I fancied, drift to death. "Tis lost," I said, but far adovrn the tide A tempted maiden saw its dainty hue Sho snatched it kneeling at tho water side,'

And vowed: "I will be puro, sweet flower, like you. And I, I never knew. V. .\

I plucked a song from out my heart one day, And tossed It on the noisy stream of rhyme. Sadly 1 vw hed it. slowly float away 'Mongst thistlos, weeds and sprigs of fragrant thyme.

Tis lost," I said, 'tis lost forever more," Although within my heart of hearts It grew. Anil yet, far down the reedy shorn

It taught one soul Its lesson sweet and tma And I, I never knew. —G»-nrgo Horton.

Superstitions IOO Years Ago. There is a vague notion abroad in*?he minds of our people and in our literature that witchcraft follies in New England came to an abrupt close in tho Seventeenth century. Such, however, is not the case. Tho successor of tho two Mathers in the Eighteenth century did not hesitate to preach from the pulpit thoir unwavering belief in "tho work of the devil." Thus the lie v. Ebenezor Turell, a graduate of Harvard, left at his death, in 1778, a manuscript account of a case of witchcraft. Speaking of divination, ho says: "Turn not tho sieve, etc., to know futurities. You only gratify Satan and invite him into your company to deceive you." Specially interesting is his notico of superstitious practices current in New England. He says: "Tho horseshoe is a vain thing and has no natural tendency to keep off witches or evil spirits from tho houses or tho vessels they aro nailed to. If Satan should by such means defend you from lesser dangers, 'tis to mako way for greater ones and get fuller possession of your hearts! 'Tis an evil thing to hang witch papers on tho neck for tho cure of agues, to bind up the weapon instead of tho wound, and many things of tho like nature which eorao in tho world are fond

A Duel of PolltoneM.

Old Judge Fornald, of Santa Barbara, has tho ^..uiation of being the politest man In California. He never loses an opportunity to doff his hat or to offer some slight attention to wayfaring men and women. One day, as ho was about to take the train for San Francisco, he reached tho rear steps of tho last car just as they were approached by a young priest. "After the cloth," said tho chivalric judge, stepping back with a courtly bow. "Gray hairs have the preference," returned the priest, with a splendid wave of tho hand. "Tho church always has precedence," retorted tho judge, taking another backward step, hat in hand. "The church follows in tho footsteps of the fathers," replied tho priest, bowing low and indicating tho way to tl2 steps.

The duel of politeness was not half through, neither yielding an inch, when tho train pulled out, leaving both bowing and smiling on tho platform.—San Francisco Examiner.

Tattooed Algerians.

In Algeria every girl born of native parents is tattooed on her forehead between the eyebrows and just at the root of tho noso with across formed of several straight lines of small stars running close together. These tattoo marks are a dark blue color. Algerian women are also considerably tattooed on tho backs of their hands, their forearms and chests, as well as on their shoulders, their wrists being especially adorned with drawings representing bracelets and (lowers strung together. As a rule, women aro the operators, and it is principally on children between tho ages of 7 and 8 that they havo to exercise their art. They use sometimes a needle, but more frequently a Barbary fig tree thorn. They employ kohl as a coloring substance. It is a kiud of fine powder made from sulphur of antimony, which is also in great request by tho Algerian women for the purpose of face painting.—Chicago Her-
