ThCity in Darkness-
Last evening just betore dark, when
the merchants began to light up then-
stores, it was discovered that barely
enough gas to burn escaped from the
burners, and as a consequence the streets
I were left dark and Main street seemed
like Sunday night, except or thc people
I there. Several oi tne inercuaius lmme-
I diatcly went over to the gas works to in
quire thc cause of the failure of thc gas
supply, but the information was very
meager, as the exact cause could not be
ascertained by Mr. Both, who has charge
of the works in Mr. Johns' absence.
The only fac t that could be ascertained
was that something was wrong with the
gas generator and the gas was escaping
about as fast as made. Mr. Roth and
his assistant were unaple to locate or rem-
I eay tne cause last ingnt auu iue
chants had to substitute lamps anu can-
I dies which gave the stores the appear-
I ance of away-out-iu-the-country estab-
I lishments. But the greatest inconven-
I ience was at the opera house where a
I large audience was gathering to hear
I Sol Smith Russell and company. At
I first the gas was lighted but thc light
I vvas very low and the report started that
I there would be no entertainment, but
I the opera house managers promptly
hunted up a dozen or so of lamps and
placed them along for foot lights and
distributed them over the housed which,
although they looked very odd, gave
abundant light and the play went off

A Strong Lake In Aaatrla.
At Zirknitz in tho Austrian Alps theTO
is an intermittent lako that is a basin,
which nt one neason of tho year is filled
with water, at another is dried up and
cultivated by thc farmers of tho neigh
borhood. Tho imierial farmer, William
Putick, lias just examined tho construc
tion of that basin and found in ono part
of it an immense cavo called Karlovca,
which, when the surface of tho water in
tho ljasin has reached a certain height,
begins sucking uj the water until tho
basin is empty.
This cave leads to a long series of
underground lakes, all connected with
one another by a continuous current.
Putick navigated tho first five of them.
Immense fields of sand and gravel ac
cumulate, and alternately stop tho cur
rent or are carried oil by it. Tho roof
of the cavo in which this system of
waters ij located at many places comes
very low, almost touching the water, and
in fiiich places tho moving gravel beds
frequently close the passage and cause
the waters to rise in the higher cave.
Putick, with three companions, was in ono
of the lakes when tho entrance was sud
denly closed by a mass of rubbish tumb
ling down from tho roof. For more than
eight hours they worked as hard as they
could until they succeeded in opening a
pnssnge by the tide of the main entrance,
which was happily still found dry, and
they were enabled to reach the surfaco
unharmed. But their boat and tools wero
left behind, and will be recovered again
after tho water shall have subsided.

A lieautiful Invitation.
Of tho invitations to visit various cities
and btates extended to the president prob
ably tho most unique came from the peo
ple of Jacksonville, Fla. It is incased be
tween lids of "curly pine," native to that
state. The lids aroheld together by hinges
with backs made of alligator skm, and
are nine inches wide, fifteen in length,
three-eighths of an inch thick. They are
highly polished, and on tho outside is
painted a bunch of magnolias in full
bloom. Tho inclosure is five pages of
bristol l)oard, upon w hich the invitation
is written, as well as the signatures of tho
committee delegated to present it. These
pages are also uniquely ornamented with
India ink sketches of scenes and of the
flora of the state. There are pictures of
tho Cherokee rose, a variety native only
to Florida, of sand dunes surrounded with
cabbage palmetto, with sea oats and sea
gulls, whito cranes, alligators, gray Span
ish moss, and sketches from nature on
the St. John's river, as well as on tho
shores of the beautiful and romantic Ialco
St. George, all blended in liarmonious and
artistic arrangement. At the top of one
of the pages there is a finely drawn scene
or picture of a genuine Florida "Cracker"
driving his team to market through tho
pines. He has the regular backwoods cart,
drawn by a genuine Florida mule, which
he bestrides, his long legs reaching nearly
to the ground. Philadelphia Press.
rhll Armour and the Pastor.
A clergyman, who is pastor of a small
church somewhere in the outlying sec
tions of the city, went to him one day
asking for a contribution for a poor girl
who, he said, waa sick and suffering for
the necessaries of life. She was so desti
tuto that sho had been unable to buy
clothing for her new born babe, and was
even unable to buy the medicino which a
kind hearted doctor had prescribed. Mr.
Armour gave him $25 and sent liini on
his way rejoicing, but was much sur
prised a few hours later when the clergy
man returned and handed him his money,
saying that he had found,, to his regret,
that the child had been born out of wed
lock, and the case was, therefore, un
worthy of his charity. Mr. Armour was
at first surprised, and then nearly lost his
temper. He called one of his clerks and
told him to see that thc clergyman left
his office and never returned. He then
sent to his own house and directed that
everything which a woman in this poor
woman's condition needed should be sent
her at once, and that the supply should
be continued till slo was able to look out
for herself. My informant says that
Mrs. Armour took the case in hand and
looked after it until no f urtlier assistance
was needed. Chicago Mail.
American Croesuses In a Castle.
Tteniifort Castle, which was recently
rented by Mr. William K. Vanderbilt for
the shooting season, has been leased by
him for a term of five years. The lease
includes the adjoining forest and a salmon
stream which runs through the property.
The family expect to occupy the place
during the fall and early winter of each
year, and are within driving distance of
Bel Macaan, the estate of Mr. and MrS.
Bradley Martin, and not very far from
the Winans estate.
The castle, which is 300 feet long and
80 feet wide, stands on a gentle eminence
on thc south bank of the river Blanly,
and is built in the Scottish baronial stylo
with turrets and gables, mullioned win
dows and many chimneys, and is of old
red sandstone from the Redbum quarry,
winch is near by. The house is beauti
fully furnished throughout with both
modern and - old furniture, and has ex
tensive stables and greenhouses. The
stables will accommodate J00 horses, and
at present Mr. Vanderbilt has only a stud
of fifteen.

A Novel "Rogues' Gallery."
Under the Bertillon system tho identi
fication of a prisoner depends on a knowl
edge of the following indications:
1. The length and width of the head.
2. The length of the left middle and
little fingers.
3. The length of the left foot.
4. Tho length of tho left forearm.
5. Tho length of tho right ear.
C. The height of the figure.
7. The measurement of the outstretched
arms.
8. The measurement of the trunk from
the top of tho head to the "bench, when a
person is 6eated.
To theeo measurements must be added
the description of tho scars and peculiar
marks that almost every porson exhibits;
the notation of the color of the hair,
beard and eyes; the 6hape and size of the
nose, and profile and front view photo
graphs of the face. A description em
bracing all these details is next to in
