An enterprising darky of a calculat ing turn of mind called a few days since on a gentleman who owns a garden in the western part of tho city of Tallehasseo and represented that the garden was growing up with a kind of grass, which, if left to go to seed, would render it impossible to grow vegetables on the same spot next year, and he proposed to cut it down for a certain sum, which the gentleman agreed to pay. He then went to tho gentleman who had recently rented the premises and made him the same proposition, which was again accepted, the latter not knowing, of course, that the owner bad agreed to pay for the work as the darky had always studiously kept that to himself. After cutting the grass and collecting pay from both gentlemen our hero proceeded to the owner of a cow, sold the grass for double what he had charged for cutting it. pocketed four times as much money as tho work was worth, and went on his way humming a hymn tune.

Ko Hun Ilua, tho Chinese professor at Harvard, is described as an acute reao< n t and close observer.

His contract is for three years, whether there are any students in ids class or not. Tho Springfield Republican tells this story of him; “Great was his surprise one morning to receive a printed communication from tho college officials, which he took to be a dismissal. Rushing at once to a professor near by, he thrust tho circular into his hands, exclaiming in an indignant and injured tone. “Tree year,boy, no boy!” His relief was speedy when ho was assured that the circular was simply the regular official announcement of his
engagement by the college.’’
A Nevada paper tells how some fishermen were surprised while fishing at at 1’yraudd Lake. They camped in a small valley and built a lire which spread and, greatly to their surpnse, set fire to jets of gas from natural wells. They found no less than nine of the jets within a circle of live rods. The gas was found to proceed froui little holes from half an inch to an inch in diameter, and flame* were ten or twelve feet high. They left the jets burning when they broke camp a few days later they found the well* still burning. A 1’iute Indian went with them. Lighting a stick, he went some rods further up the valley and touched off a dozen or more jets that were fed ,from holes upon around a little
