neighborhood .re se:n moving toward

know then that a wat:r.-p(iit was
forming, and called attention to
the atmospheric disturbance, i'ron
enfly the water of the bay. about
one hundred yards IT the end
of a lonir wharf. began to btil
and whirl around with a loud no Is -.
Tain wiiirl)onl w:is directly beneath
the black cloud. The black cloud the.i
formed in Tunnel .shap- ami let down a
point, revolving inn direction contrary
to the whirlpool bdow. .Soon the two
borUen of water joined in forming a
column about fifty feel in diameter
in tins middle nnd reachinc; up nhoul
a mile in the air. A.i soo.i as
the junction wa.s formed the gr-at'r
part of the rushing water erased.
The column stood apparently motion
less for about fifteen minutes, nnd had
an angle with the horizon of about
sixty decrees. The funnel at the tp
was dead bla-k. but the bod of tins
waterspout was flute color. At the
bottom, where the fpotil .spread out
into a pyramid, the water was green
and white. It was magnificent .sight
Then the whole mass began moving
toward I:ittleV. and came majestically
along, bending more and more a- it
advanced. When it reached the shore,
just where the wharf joins the shore,
the spout bent in the middle, and a re
port of electric discharge and a flash
of lightning announced that the spout
was broken. The. greater part of the
water was sucked up in the heavens :v
the spout parted in the middle, and the
remainder fell with a irrent noise, en
veloping the wharf and breaking it
down for a distance of jicrhapn fifty
feet, reaching from tho shore to a
small house situitt'sl on the wharf.
The effects of the .-pout, were felt on
land slightly. It was only a remnant
of the gyrating wat-r that hit the house

was small. Mobile He teter.
ROBBING THE TREASURY.
lfo Frintc Clrrk .M:tntci-il to l.lro
lltli en m siuill S:l try.
When worn out or mutilated notes
are redeemed they are taken t the re
demption department of the Treasury
and counted, cut in two lengthwise,
each half counted in separate room-,
and each lot then separately reduced t,
pulp, some of which reappears in com
merce in the form of toy animals and
other figures which arc sold at thi
souvenir stands of the Capitol :rid at
the various -hops in the city. ).r of
the accountants has held the position
-ince 1S.". and has been all that time
one of the most -killful and trusted em
ployes. She i-. of mature age. and is
fat and well kept, like a woman of
wealth amid leisure. Ilormetho.ls were
simple, and yet required the coohie-s
and skill of an accomplished prc-tidig-;fntenr.
Her accomplishment- we:v
worthy of Hermann in that respect.
Surrounded by her associates in similar
work, she wotdd deftly tear notes in
pieces, paste them togethersoasto form
one more complete note than the pack
ago originally contain-d and then ab
stract a complete note of large denomin
ation. The packages would foot up cor
iss'tlyand seemtobe uutampered with.
I low long lh is has been going on. whet h
er she is the only light-fingered lady in
the business, and how much has been
stolen no one can tell, for each day all
that has been counted is reduced to
pulp. The deficit discovered in the
one lot. when an expose of this
woman's performance was accidentally
made, amounted to within a few dol
lars of $l.t00. and the amount pur
loined may. therefore, foot up to a
largo sum. All the time she has boon
engaged in this work, at least for sev
eral years, it has been a subject of
comment in tho neighlwrhood where
she lived, and still lives, that she put
on remarkable airs for a woman that
received only 7.r dollars a mouth,
slie purchased a fine house years ago.
and furnished it in thu most elegant
style, and not long after purchased tin
other. Recently she has been engaged in
erecting an exjonsivc country mansion
in one of the suburban villages. For
several years .she has kept a fine team
of horses and an elegant carriage, in
which, however, she would not ride to
the treasury. She would not patron
ize the street cars, though, but each
morning and evening had a livery man
come with a coupe and carry her to
andfrom her place of honest toil, by
which she became a capitalist. l :$-

An Oculist's Advice.
Keep a shade on your lamp or gas
burner. Xever read or sew directly in front
of a light, window or door.
It is be?t to let the light fall from
above, obliquely over the loft shoulder.
Xovor sleep so that on first waken
ing the eyo shall open on the light of
a window:
Xever begin to read, write or sew
for several minutes after coining from
darkness to light.
Do not use the eyesight by liglit so
scant that it requires an effort to dis
criminate, whether twilight, moon
light or on cloudy days.
Finally, the moment you are in
ninctively prompted to rub your eyes.

LOTTO IN ITALY.

The Italians are natural gamblers.
The iiatioiuil game of lotto, now under
tho patronage and control of the 'lov
ernment. is patronized to an incredi
ble extent. The chances of winning aro
less than few and far between; but
rich and poor, priest and peasant, pat
ronize it with persistent "regularity.
The poor actually go without food and
pawn the very lieds they lie on in order
to buy their weekly ticket-. The gamo
itself is of simple form. Numbers from
I to iM inclusive are placed in a largo
revolving whu'd.und at noon on Satur
day, in the presence of the municipal
officers and (Soverument repre-enta-tives,
Hi numbers are drawn forth bv
live difTorent children gathered at
random from the waiting crowd.
These numbers are then publicly pro
claimed as the winning numbers for
the week and telegraphed far and near.

The purchaser choo-cs his own num

nilloss to say lha't to choose iiv win

Two numbers uot unfrepicntly come

hits on three; but these are rare ex
