angry with himself , took satisfaction out of
the professor by Baying to him , in n voice
loud enough to bo heard all over the theater :
"Sir , you are a donkeyl" To prove how
much the tenor was in the wrong , the pro

was ignorant of music. "What Is all this

the magistrate. The complainant assorted
that tha trouble was in regard to the timo.

time1" "It waa in four time , " replied the

Ia that all ? Why , that is only two seconds ,
and what does that signify in such a long

roar of laughter and the tenor and the organ

A curiosity , partly natural and partly arti
ficial , is attracting considerable attention
near Bellaitre , Ohio. Several years ago the
ami near Wallace lluu was drilled for oil.
The oil waa not found , but a light flow of salt
arater was obtained. The field was abandoned
md forgotten. The operators were not nwnra
.hat with the salt water they struck a vein of
latural gas. Some time last fall a hunter nc-
: ldentally lighted the gas in one of the wells ,
md it has continued to burn over since with u
lame tix to elicit feet high. The salt water
Bubbles over the top of the well , which is a
bet or BO below the surface of the ground ,
orming a little pool with two or three feet of
urface. On this surface the flames burn ,

Cheerier and cheerier grow the days ,
And the storms are fewer and fewer.
Warmer each day grow the sun's glad rays ,
And the skies grow bluer and bluer ;

Has ceased her hu'labaloo ,
And cries no more for sealskin sacque

And ice lock each river and rill.
