X. 1'. Evening 1'ost. Ab Aggravating Case. Colonel Tildes was pulled up before an Austin justice who had not been long at tho business, and was consequently a like tojHttlo inexperienced. Colonel .Tihlen was cnargco, wnn an aggravated assault on a small boy named Kelly. As Colonel Tildon has lived in Austin for more than a quarter of a century in the enjoyment 01 a phenomenal reputation for being a law-abiding citizen, hU arrest created quite a sensation. " How do you plead, Colonol?" asked the recorder. I plead guilty of the assault, v-our Honor, but I was ver3 much aggra vated." "Well, tho Court understands that. The papers have been mado out for a& aggravated assault, rieasc state the nature of the aggravation?" " I was walking down Austin avenuo to meet a fnend who was to arrive on tho four-tvent3' train, lleing anxious to know if I was on time. I accosted this DOJ" am asked him what o'clock it was. Ho asked me if I had a watch. I replied I nail loft it at home, whereupon he asked if it was running, and if it kept good time. I replied in the affirmative, although I thought the question savored of iniertinence. Now. when I told that bo3 as polileb as I knew how that my watch was at home, and in pootl ruuning order, what do 3011 think that bo3 replied?" "Perhaps ho told 3-011 to go home and get it." "Not precisely; but ho said to mo: -If vou had vour watch with vou, I could look at it and toll you what time whero upon I becamo so aggra atcd I him a slight blow with my gold- struck headed cane.

Gentlemen of position are 110 longer required to sliave their heads in order to make room for a wig. Tlu'3 have escaped from powder. Thoy are not obliged to put on clothes so mifomnrom hing that their owners, it is recorded, were forced to have themselves dropped into them from a height. The- no longer spend fift3' or a hundred guineas on a single gorgeous suit. The silk hat. if uglier, is cheaper and handle than the county beaver of the d.ys of (ieorgo HI. and tho Prince Regent. Masculine attire is easier and less painful than formerly. So little does it vary that it is permissi ble to drop out ofthe fashion without being llagrantty ridiculous. It is cheap and unostentatious. For. men howev er, there remain man3' points of costumo to which usage alone and aversion for the trouble of change can reconcile tho mind. Intrinsically there can lie noth ing more ahitird than the whole appa ratus of rigid collars and culls and neck ties. Onty tho clerg3 as 3-et have had the courage to emancipate themselves from the servitude of still hats. Than evening dress never was ari3' grealer travesty of elegr.nce and con gruit3 invented. Though -oung boys ought to raise b .subscription a statiio to the discotery of Knickerbocker. their seniors in to'cum .steeples, and useless jackets, and suffocating collars, conthiuo to enjo3" in their dress not much more freedom than a herald in his tabard. Women have but begun to meditateon eufran hUumcut from dress as ungraceful as it is inappropriate. Men, if their cloth'ng is almost as gro tesque as ever, have at least delivered thein-ehes from the obligation of per petual change.

Tho reported damage done 113- tidal waves on the Panama Isthmus during the tropical c3e!one and earthquake ol tho 7th ulL is suggestive not onty of the connection between these phenomena, but also of thy possibility of predict'ng the destructive o.eau waves which orig inate under combined tidal and cyclon ic intlui'iiccs. Tho tidal waves reported from Panama may have been partty due to the earthquake, but if as violent as thev- are represented the;- must have Iven intensified 113- tho great tluctua tions of air pressure going on- at the time over the Caribbean Sen and its vi-cinitv-. The highest spring tides of the year'occur in March, short ty before the venial o uinov, and in September, .shortty after tho equinox. But. as has lieca recentty pointed out b3 Hev. lamo Pearson, an English astronomer, "it is only when a combination of astronomical and atmospheric circum stances favors their development that their effects become rennrkable." Ob servations at Brest have shown that with a depression of one inch in the ba rometer tip; tide rises sixteen inches above high water mark, and similar though less differences are noticed at Liverpool and other ports. Low ba rometer causes high tides, and. vic versa, tho abnormal rise of the barom eter, as was strikingly illustrated last January in New York Ha. gives rise to unusually low tides. Instances also are recorded in which high winds havo obliterated the tides, as during the Brit ish hurricane of January 8, 1B.19, when theie was no tide at all on a part of the river TienL During the passage of West India c3clones along our Atlantic seaboard we may have at any time cx traordinary tidal fluctuations, as have often under such circumstances oc curred, with disastrous effects As the periods when tho highest and lowest tides due to astronomic causes alone arc known, it would be easy to make fore casts of the development of very extra ordinary tidal ranges due to tfie con currence of astronomical and' weather ag.ncics which would occasionally give great additional value to the daily weather reports .V. Y. Jlcrahl. - Aa Extraerdiaary Surgical Operatien. A recent extraordinary surgical oper ation has created quite a sensation here. A young waiter in one of the cafes bet he could swallow a spoon a tcr the manner of those mountebanks who swallow swords. Unfortunately, the spoon, althongh nine inches long, slipped from between his lingers and descended into tho pit of his tomach. Unsuccessful efforts were made to re gain it by means of an instrument passed down the a-sophagus. The man was then removed to the Hospital Lariboisiec, where tho eminent sur geon. Dr. Felizcl, successrully per formed tho operation of opening the stomach by means of an incision and ex tracting the st oon therefrom. The stomach had previoady been dilated by means ef vapor of ether. This delicate operation lasted three quarters of an hoar, daring which time the patient was kept under the mriueace of chloroform.

An Interesting Monastery. The memory of the lion was preserved in its ancient haunts long after it had become extinct. The scene of one of the prettiest stories told by .Elian is laid in Mount Pang-cum, which, from its mention bp Xcnonhon. must have been a famous haunt of lions: Kudemns tells the talc that in Pan gaum in Thrace a bear attacked the lair of a lion, while it was unguarded, and killed the cubs that were too a7Bll and too weak to defend themselves. And when the father and the raoth-nr came home from hunting somewtert; and saw their children lying dead, they were much aggrieved, and attacked the bear; bat she was afraid, and climbed up into a tree as fast as she could, aad settled herself down, trying to avoid the attack. iNow, when they saw that they could not avenge themselves oa her. the lioness did not cease to watch the tree, bat sat down in ambush at the foot, eye ing the bear, that was covered with blood. Bat the lioa. as it were, with out purpose aad distraught with grief, after the manner of a man, rushed oft to the EsoHH.aias, and chanced to light on a wood-cotter, who. ha terror, let faM his ax: bat the lioa fawned aporn him. and reaching up saluted him as well as he could, aad licked his face with hie tongue.

" No l'roh bitioifjl in Kansas or else where, who has ati3 regard fir tho truth, has ever claimed that tho Pro hibitory law, as applied to the liquor traffic, has ever had the effect to entire ty suppress the evil, nor is there any more reason for it to be attended with nny greater degree of siie.o- than Is the law against murder.
