A HISTORIC aJLUNDEr..

JaSferse Pari Wu Owce Arretted Im At luU as a Pickpocket. It is not generally known that Jef ferson Davis was onco arrested and held prisoner in Atlanta charged with being a pickpocket. In 1857 or 1858 Mr. Davis, who was than secretary of war, was traveling from Richmond to Mississippi. On tho samo train was Sam Noble, the founder of tho biff iron works in Rome and Anniston. Mr. Noble had but recently como " over from England and was on a prospecting tour. He had with him a small hand Batchel containing j $1,000 in gold. When Atlanta was reached, the dismay of Mr. Noblo may bo imagined when ho found his satchel gone. He gavo the alarm, and city marshal H P. Hunnicut an his deputy, Beu Williford, responded at onco. They learned that a quiet, unassuming man had occupied tho scat with Noble, and after a short search they found, placed him under arrest and carried him to Washington Hall. Tho stranger took his arrest very quietly and said: "Is not Allison Nelson tho mayor of your town? Well, I think if you will bring him hero I can bo identified." Tho arrest of a person charged with picking pockets was unusual in Atlanta, and tho prisoner was surrounded by a gaping, staring crowd. Tho mayor caino, and as ho crossed tho threshold ho glanced around the room until his oyes rested on tho prisonor. With a shout of joy, his arms outstretched, he sprang forward. 41 Jeff Davis, God bless your soul! Whero did you como from! Gentlemen, I fought under this man in tho Mexican war. Ho is tho secretary of war." Introductions and explanations followed. The officers began another investigation and finally recovered the money from tho negro train porter. Messrs Hunnicut and Williford are still alive; Mr. Noble and Mayor Nelson are dead, but there are many old men in Atlanta today who were present in Washington Hall when tho affair occurred, t-Atlanta Herald. Ab Aaeedote of Eaenes. In the crowd of the Philadelphia centennial one of the queens of our American life had Mr. Emerson as her guest at Philadelphia as he studied the great exhibition. She also had as guests in the elastic hospitality of her diarming borne another distinguished New Engländer who had brought hk two little boys to see the show. It happened that this gentleman was -suddenly called out of the house for many hours of the night on one of his many errands of mercy. Alas! one of his litte boys awoke in his absence frightened and sick, in a strange house, to find that his father was gone. His wails of sorrow waked his little brother, and both then joined in the chorus. But it was some time before these strains reached the distant room of the lady of the house. When at length she.did run to the relief of the lonely little strangers, she found that the great idealist was before her. There he was, petting and soothing aad comforting those lonely children, who were thus learning in the dim midnight the noblest lesson of the moat divine philosophy. They were learning it in the practical teaching of tho great idealist of tho world! Edward E. Halo's Address. Fljrtof TImtiU of Borneo. According to the testimony of our most reliable naturalists the only genus of "flying serpent" now known to Inhabit the earth is a family of reptiles which make their homes in the great forests of Borneo, mentioned by Meek, Williams, Kinno and others as tho "flying lizard of tho South seas." The best known species of this flying saurian is Draco volens leekii, a striped, snakeliko lizard about 14 or 16 inches in length when full grown. The primary colors of Draco are red and yellow, in bands, dots, crescents and stripes, tho red predominating to such an extent that the creatures appear as a carmine rocket when sailing through tho air. Some havo declared that bis wings are "sails'' like those of the American, flying squirrel, but Meek says "they approach truo wings and can bo used by tho little saurian to guide himself at will." Philadelphia Press. Averag Mubbm Growth I'er Tear. The averago growth of tho human species per year varies at different ages. According to a table prepared recently by a French scientist, tho growth during tho year following birth averages 7 inches; from 2 to 3, it is 4 or 5 inchos; from 3 to 4, it is 1J inches; from 4 to 6, about 2 annually; from 7 to 8, 21 inches; from 8 to 12, 2 inches yearly; from 12 to 13, 1.8; from IS to 14, 2J inches; from 15 to 16, 2 inches; from 16 to 17, nearly 2 inches. After this, although growth continues until sometimes Late in the twenties, it rapidly diminishes. New, York Telegram. Comment en aKecent Vathloa. A fashion paper says that dresses are to be full this year. We prefer them full. Tho idea of a dress empty is ridiculous in tho extreme. We should like to know what satisfaction it would bo to a young man to ait by the side of an empty dress. Lottdoa Tit-Bits.

The Soattt American Equlvalesttef ColocteL "You may call tho averago South or Central American of tho higher classos 'doctor' with aa much certainty of making tho titlo fit as 'colonel' to a Kentuckiau," said Amos P. Anderson of Boston. "Americans havo undoubtedly noticed that most of tho prominent men who havo visited hero voluntarily or in exilo havo tho prefix 'Dr.1 before their names. Also, that many of tho presidents of these republics aro apparently physicians, for instance Dr. Nunez, president of Colombia. But thoy aro not all physicians. Lawyers in theso countries graduate with tliodegreo that entitles this prefix, ajid if our own Chauucey Depow should visit thero ho would bo conßidered a lawyer. Many go through collogo just for this honor, havipg no intontion to practico law or medicine. "Tho standard of education is higlior than wo suppose and tho collegiato courses much moro rigorous. In theology tho student spends four years in collogo, medicino fivo years and law sovon years or doublo the timo required hero to graduate. Again, while n physician may pass an examination to practico in a department or district in a republic, he must pass a higher examination to practico in tho entire country. Practitioners coming from this or other countries must also pass an examination beforo being admitted to practice, and interstate or foroigu diplomas aro not recognized as hero." Washington Star.

Palms, bananas, passion flowers and other tropical plants and blooms abound, but you meet few people, and thoso aro mostly women. Tho grassy streets havo a sad, deserted look, constantly reminding ono that the sons and husbands and lovers and brothers perished on tho battlefields or died of starvation in hiding or rotted in prison, as thousands did who wero ignorant oven of what they were accused or wero tortured and murdered by tho threo tyrants who ruled and ruined tho country. Hero women do tho work that in other parts of tho world is monopolized by tho stronger sex, such as cleaning tho streets, loading the ships, driving the ox carts, cultivating tho fields, carrying on tho mar kets, etc., and it is said that during tho long, hard war they made the best and bravest soldiers. Naturally whero mon aro in tho proportion of ono to seven they aro at a higher premium than elsewhere, and in Par aguay thoy aro figuratively kept in cotton wool by their admiring female relatives. Fannie B. Ward's Letter. Work of aa Indignant Small Hoy. Tho other day a young girl in one of tho down town stores invited a few of tho girls to her home. It was to bo a girls' party, and tho young men wero not in it Exception was mado, however, in favor of tho littlo brother. But tho youthful scion of tho family was indignant. Ho didn't see auy fun in a crowd of girls and managed to play a gamo on them Tho following morning tho girls wero horrified at seeing a paragraph in ono of tho daily papers.

Tho buffalo in tho United States is a bison; tho partridgoof Micliigun and pheasant of Pennsylvania and other states is a ruffled grouse; tho rabbit, so plentiful in tlio market at timef, is a hare. Both species of grouse, tho ruffled and tho pinnated, are called pheasant, partridge and patrige, and the pinnated grouse is universally referred to as tho prairie chicken. Prairio chicken is not a bad name for the pinnated grouse, for it is orifThial and docs not confound it with othor birds, but it is not right to use tho names partridge and pheasant when referring to our grouse, for these aro tho correct names of European specimens.
