Uikminoh am, All.. April 20. Last niglit a practical joke, which may result seriously, was played on a negro named Tom JacLcsn at Wood's saloon, on south Twentiv.tli street. A fa',y days ago a negro who lived in an alley near that saloou died and was buried in a small lot ju--t back of the saloon, Jackson is very uj) rstitioiH, especially about ghosts. .Since the other negro died he h is expressed his fear of seeing the man's gho-t several times. Last night two ne gro boys covered their facos, bauds and heads with l! jur and hid naar the grave. When Jackson came along iney rushed out, and, after yelling a time or two, ran at him. The poor negro was completely paralyzed with fright. lie screamed and fell to the ground. The other two ne groes rushed up, and Jackson sprang to his fett witli Lis eye; fairly starting front heir sockets, and dashed oft like a wild ant.-bp.'. He ran into a drug store and fell tj the llor unconscious and frothing at the n.cuth.

Hobert J. Burdette in Xew York Star. A Curious Class of 3Ien. Speaking of barrooms, I have often noticed r ei tain cui'i'ous class of men wlio appear tc i.iK.ul thbic entire live3 within easy reach of the counter where bottled Inspiration is dis pensed. 1 do not mean the wretched class of bangers on who spend their lives waiting to lie asked what they will have, but men of mean, whom the barroom teems to pos sess tho attraction that other men of means find in a club. They are- always elderly or old men. They always spend money liber ally, and they always make their appear uuco on the alcoholie "scene early in thu morn ing, quite sober, and get eo -drunk by noon that tho rest of tha day is on of stupid, im becilic idleness with him. There is one man I know, who is very wealthy, a bachelor and a traveled and educated man, whose entire life is, I think, spent in getting drunk and bciug uliered up at a c-rtain saloon that. hj frequents! He must represent a oniall f oi luho to the house, where ha is cherished aa ten derly, iu his cpp, fw ft sick baby, foil, put to bed and watched over as a goose that Jaya golden eggs always should e. Now and then he disappears for a few days or a week or two, when j-ou may know that he is straight ening up at his own house, which is ono of jlie hajd,oiitst i-ld inausLms iu Ys'k, But ha no sooner gets on his feet than they carry him to the barroom, where he draws a checK for the expenses 0 the last spree, and tho old game begins again. At a certain old fashioned ar-d popular chop house not a, millioii uulea f i ota Madison, square there are several of these topers to bb encountered daily. Oua of them I remember for years. Ho turr.3 up every morning, Sun day's included, at 0 o'clock. By 11 ho has had a dozen cocktails and is ready for break fast. By 3 he is drunk enough to be taken ;ipstairs to bed, whence he emerges at 8 t'clock m thrf owning to eat his dinner, Hjg after dinner drunk carries bira along well to ward midnight, when, if he is not too hope lessly helpless, ho is bundled into a coach and sent home. For a long time I was a daily visitor at tho chop houso which enjoys his profitable favor and I never onco missed him! Lately, having visited the place again,, I found him there as usual, neither more nor less drunk than usual and looking none the worse for the sea of alcohol in which he has been floating himself these many years. He is, I believe, a man of largo means, inherited from his father, and has never been known o lead any other than tho degraded, selfish and useless life which first attracted my at tention to him.

A Ciond LooU Into tli I-ptlin of the Orrnt Aliytm of i'lre ami llrlniittni. We stood at the great gulf in tho mountain top at the crater of the most active volcano ia tlm world. From the great ubyss lieforo us came clouds of thiek, sulphurous vaor, with a sound sometimes as if thunder storms were ln-ing manufactured within, and again as if tho hosts of hades were down there, lit tling furiously with each other. We could readily U'lieve what we are told by scien tists that a volcano is a constant war Ikj-twit-n the ocean of water that is always not far away and the ocean of fire that raos iu sidtj the earth. Now and then great llovks of stones wont flying hundreds of feet into the air, und at tho end of their return jour ney alighted as near us as we cared to have them. Wishing to get another view of tho crater, I engaged two extra guides, who, for tho modest sum of $1 extra, contracted to show mo everything additional that one could witness, and yet hope to descend the mount ain on the outside, and take dinner in tho evening with his friends. After exhibiting several points upon thoir anatomy where bones had lieeri lvr!:p V f-.'!! - , , ; of which seemed to have healed remarkably) they led mo straight into the thick sulphury steam, which was about as stifling as any thing I ever undertook to breathe, and made the phj-sieal interior feel as if it were being treated to a sudden attack of sponta neous combustion. We descended into a crater valley .which was full of vapor breath ing crevices, and weird enough to form one of tho most interesting districts of Dante's "Inferno." Suddenly my guides made a break for fresh air and the outer edgo of the crater, and I, supposing that some tremen dous new historical convulsion of nature was at hand, used about a second and a half in following them so as to get a good look at it from a safo oint. "Great dangcro!" shouted tho swarthy vil lain who had my five francs. "It blows, this the wind! a wrong way I Half tho hour ago, all it was different! If you then had only ljeen here! But we must now go it back!" Tho average Yankee, however cownrdly, had rather lose his life fairly than bo swin dled out cf a dollar; and, besides, I had been told of this trick by a f riend who had ascended tho volcano tho day before. io, hiding all iny trembling fcar3, I insisted on tbo whole trip to the edge of "the now cra ter." "It is death with ordy two guides," said tho swarthy villain. "Two moro guides you must h.if, that they shall warn and keep the falling stones from killing j-ou." At this point new guides began to spring up around me, as if they had been ejected from among the contents of the volcano. Not wishing to fake too many of them into certain destruction, I ignored all except tho smallest one, and, shaking my cane at him with an assumed courago whieh 1 did not exactly feel, threatened him with instant de struction entirely disconnected with volca noes if ho did not follow out tho terms of tho contract. Wo wero soon at luo best point from which to vif-w tho great drama of fir that vvns gq; ing on. beneath. Flames font their ruddy glow upon the swelling clouds of vapor that constantly pushed their way into tho air. Now and then camo a sob from the Lreast of the cruel mountain, as if it wero mourning for tho thousands it had murdered. Tho sul phur fumes mado me feel as if tho volcano wero reaching out its long white fingers and clutching rne by the throat. A half grating and half hissing sound was followed by axi explosion hkq the voice of 'a cannon, and a long stono wall went stretching up. into tho air in fragments tectiens, between mo and that invisible locality where the sky was sup posed to be. I scon began to persuade myself that it was unjust to exposa theguido to peril any longer, and, to set a good example, sctair red oat of tho way ahead of him wuit tm much agility eg JS-i pquiida avojrdiqiois woula allow. vui (.-aruou ia rew loniJs' :var. lropliccy of tli c- I'uture.

And ono chapter closes with the following striking paragraph: "Future ages may see the scat of empire transferred to regions of the earth now bar ren and desolated under intense solar heat countries which, for that very cause, will not improbably become the seat of mechanical and thenco of political power.
