In front of m was it sotfTold gtipiHirtitiK a guillotine. A man was pinioned, with bis neck rwtiug on (be blovk, the tall eiecption ar standing ready to pnll the cord and liberate the shining blade that hang aloft. Aroand were grouped a priest and atate uflicials dresswl in French cos tume of the last century. And the pin moon shrd its goruber light over all. In a moment I recollected that I tnn'st be in the chamber of horrors of sol's waxwork exhibition. I wassix'iiding a Vfwk in town, sight seeing. Tho preceding day had been a Twy fatiguing one, bat I had promised myself an evening at the waxworks, arid I bad niadearraugeuients, for every other night daring my short stay, so 1 went. . Thare ia nothing so tiring as an ex hibition, no matter what its character auay be, and after walking up and down lung galleries and climbing and de oenoing stain for serearl bonrs I was completely "dead beat. " Consequently, when I fonnd a larjje Mock of wood aacKxntioner's block, I have since as certained it to have beon in a seclud ed comer of the chamber of horrors, I sat down to rest. I must have immediately fallen deep and escaped the notice of the at tends uts when they closed the building for (he night. When I awoke, the chamber wad as still as a tomb, and bright moonlight, streaming in through the tall window, gave the place a weird and unearthly appearance as it fell on the bidoons throng of the world's great criminals. I rose from my seat and glanced around. I am not a superstitious man, nor am I particularly nervous, but a queer sensation crept over me. Perhaps the night air was chilly. Perhaps I had liken cold. I must get out of the place somehow. Tba moon was now hidden behind a bank of clouds, and the place became quite dark. I stretched out my hand, and it touched something. Ugh! Cold, like-tht) flesh of a dead man! It was the fdeo of one of that murderous crew. What a fool I was! Tbey were only wsi fcarrs. Thnt was all, i f course. I tried to litugh at my absurd situation, but. the attempt was a failure and left me hi. ire uncomfortable than ever. Pcrhupt t hey were smiling at me in the darkness. Absurd! How could wax fig tut Hii:i e? And yet suppose that the spirits of these evil men and women haunted their counterfeit presentments. Living crini foals, k was said, could not resist re turning to the scenes of their crimes, and these mute statues were clothed in the very garments in which the crimes had been committed garments from which the guilty stains bad never been washed. What was that? I bad taken bold of something made of cold ntctal. Horror! I felt it to be one of the knives with which murder bad been committed. I was behaving like an idiot. I knew it, and I told myself so. Cut it was no use. I could aot belp wishing I were anywhere else. A vault or a crypt would be cheerful compared with this horrible place. The very air seemed to smell of crime. I crept forward until I came to some tops. Perhaps this was the way out. I wont up and reached out into the darkness. A hand I A foot I A body kneeling! Groat heavens! I bad ascended the scaffold was the one solitary living being present at that awful mute mum mery going on in the darkness of the night." This sort of thing leads to madness," I told myself, as I crawled backward down the stairs. But what was to be done? I nm at get out somehow, or my serves would not Btund the strain. - Never until now bad I realized how weak one's intellect really is. If any body bad told me a few hours before that I had so much dormant imbecility La me, I should have brn indignant. I am, moreover, an imaginative man, and imagination is a curse on such oc casions. However, I determined that I would not give way in this manner. Advanc ing in another dircetion, I was stopped hy a wooden wall or partition. Just then, the moon came out for a few mo ments, and I saw that I was looking in to a. prisoner's dock. There, close in front of me, stood aonre of the men and women who dur ing the present century bad become most notorious in crime. Their fea tures were, in a number of cases, famil iar to me from old books and recent prints. I instantly recognized, among others, Burke and Hare, the former of whom was convicted In 1829 of a horrible aerie of unurdsrs on the evident of his accomplice; James Bloomfleld Rush, the Stanfkld Hall murderer of Maria and George Manning, the two atrocious criminals of !84U; William Palmer, tho lingo ley poisoner of 1S.M-, and William Fish. Catherine Wilson. Henry Wainwright, the Staunton, Lt froy and Lliwkl of Inter dittos. What a blood guilty assemblage with which to pass thentgbtt How the crime of every individual seemed indelibly written on his face! Due man's expression, transfixed me. held me spellbound and filled me with loathing and horror. Who be was I did not know, but 1 could not take my eyes from his face. And when the place again grew dark I saw it at ill Handing out alone in the surrounding gloom, with the suppressed grin of a cruel and unrelenting fiend. . I bid my face in my hands. I threw myself on the floor until the vision slowly faded away, leaving me trem bling in every limb. I dare not get tip nor open my eyes for fear that I should see it again. Suddenly a peculiar sound of jan gling and creaking fell on my ears. What could it be? It seemed to coma from the corner of the chamber where the instruments of torture were ar ranged for exhibition. The thumb screws, tongtio pinchers, branding irous, masks and cinctures, the gressilon, the moltiere, the cubitolre all seemed to my excited imagination to be in move ment and rattling one against the other. Thoughts came into my miud of all the uustpeakable agonies that bad been indicted by those diabolical inventions. This place would kill me. I felt I was going mad. Let me get free somehow anyhow! I sprang to my feet and rushed like a maniac, in the darkness, striking wildly at everything in my way in search for the door. Figure aft er figure I burled to the ground as it came in my path. All at ouce I felt strong arms close around me! I was struggling madly for life with this terrible unseen some thing that held me by the throat and was stiaugling me in the dark. I now saw again that fearful facet Was it that of my antagonist? I tried to cry out, but I was choking. Gradually I relaxed my bold, and everything be came a blank. a "You have been very ill, George, dear, but you are better now." I looked around me. I was in a strange bedroom, and my sister Lucy was bending over me. I convinced her that it would be best for her to explain at once all that happened, for my terrible experience in the dark chamber now came back to me. She said that the night watchman, thinking he beard sounds in the cham ber of horrors, bad descended to the place, when I immediately ran into his arms in the dark. In the struggle I bad fainted. Brain fever followed, and I had narrowly escaped with my life. My address bad been found in my pocket, and my friends communicated with. The peculiar sounds that I had beard and exaggerated were doubtless produced by the koys of the watchman as he unlocked the door of the chamber. London Tit-Bits. Tha Tallest of All Animals. There are a few groups of living large mammals whose existing members appear never to have been surpassed in size by their fossil relatives. Foremost among these are the whales, which now appear to include the largest members of the order which have ever existed. The so called white, or square mouthed, rhinoceros of South Africa seems also to be fully equal in size to any of its extinct ancestors, and the same is cer tainly true of the giraffe, which may even exceed all its predecessors in this respect. Whether the lowil giraffes were or weie not the equals in height of the largest individuals of the living species, there is no question bat that the Utter is by far the tallest of all living mam mals, and that it was only rivaled in this respect among the extinct forms by its aforesaid ancestors. Moreover, if we exciude creatures like some of the gigantic dinosaurian reptiles of the sec ondary epoch, which, so to speak, gained an unfair advantago as regards height by sitting on their hind legs in a kan garoolike manner, and limit our com parison to such as walk on all four feet in the good old fashioned way, we shall find that giraffes are not only the tallest mammals, but likwelse the tallest of all animals that Vive ever existed. Knowledge. Leather Like Velset. The manufacture of leather is reach ing what must be almost the highest perfection of the art. A new process has recently been patented in France for the production of a leather which both to the touch and eye has a striking re semblance to velvet. Leathers of this description hitherto manufactured have been obtained by treatment of the flesh side of the bide or skin. The flesh side of the skin being always coarse, the patentees claim now to secure better results by treating the hair side. They scratch or rub the bair side with a rub ber of strong erosive qualities, or with emery or glass, when working small surfaces, and use a grindstone for heav ier work. In this manner a downy nap is brought out which they throw and lay in different directions, thereby bringing out varied designs of changing bue and appearance. The velvety sur face produced is said to be similar to the down of a peach skin. The fiber is very fine, soft to the touch and has all the appearance of silk velvet shorn very close. Shoe and Leather Gazette. For Preserving Pictures. A sort of antidecay apparatus has been invented for preserving pictures. It is a glass tray with solid back, and the picture is put inside and hermetic ally sealed. The air is then exhausted with an airpump, with tho result that in this vacuum the paint will preserve Its pristine freshness pretty well for ever, nnless the thing leaks. Chicago News. Tha Origin of Sain WelUr. The original of 8am Wuller was Bam Vfce, an English low comedian, who, In the early part of this century, wai quite popular in the south of England. In the year 1811, aud for a few years after, he made quite a reputation in the musical la res called "The Boarding House," wtltten by Beasley. In this he played the part of Simon Fpatter- dash, a person who indulged In odd and whimsical sayings. "Coma on, as the old man said to tho tight hoot;" "I am down on you, as the extinguisher said to the candle; "Let every one take care of himself, as the donkey said when dancing among the chickens," are fair illustrations of bis witticisms in the course of that play, the resem blance between them and soma of the sayings of Sam Wullor being very marked. In private life Vale was a wit, and many good things in his own time were credited tojlilin. A man of excellent temper, he iiad no enemies, and the good humor which pervaded every saying, together with the drol lery of bis manner, gave his witticisms unusual value. His sayings were called Sam Valerisuia, and on the appearance of Pickwick in 1836 the character of Wei lor was generally recognised as a portraiture of Vale. Thecomedlan died in IMS at the age of 61 Baltimore American. taster Island. In the South Pacific ocean is an Is land belonging to the Polynesian arch ipelago, about 80 miles in circumfer ence, and which at its highest point is 1,300 feet above the level of the sea. This is Easter island, formerly called Davis Land, and bas 9,000 inhabitants, who, like all the other South Sea is landers, are dark skinned. It appears to have been of volcanlo origin, but the greater poiut of interest about tt is not its people, with tbeir habits aud manners, but the wonderful rains which sre found there. These consist.)' temples, with statues 19 and IS feet high, some of tbum in rows standing on wide platforms of solid masonry. The inhabitants of the is land know nothing at all of these ruins or of those who built them. Therefore, like many others, they may date centuries back, and perhaps sre prehistoric. They evidently are the work of race that bas passed away, and about which we can only conjec ture. Who these people were, what they believed and what tbey did are questions that, like many others, must remain unanswered. Goldthwaite's Geographical Mngaxine. Easy Stairs lo Climb. There is a great deal of stair climb ing to be done here before we aball "climb dein golden stairs," and those who are about to build would do well to see to it that all the stairs be made as easy as possible. Tbe very acme of ease is reached in stairs that bsve treads 13 to IS inches broad and risers S to 7 inches high. The run or distance in most houses is too short to allow of this, hut tbey should come as near it as tbe architepof the bouse will permit. It is so eay to climb such stairs that one bardly is aware of any effort. Num bers of incurably broken down women owe their bad health to the steep stairs which they have been obliged to climb daily, Exchange. Witchcraft la tba Nineteenth Century. At the Yeovil borough petty sessions on Tuesday Frederick Terrell, a bus driver, was bound over in his own recog nizance of 10 to keep the peace for six months for having threatened Harriet Carew on March 24. Tbe defendant had gone to the complainant, accesed her of being an "old witch" and asked her to take a spell off bis sitter. He said he would beat her brains out and throw ber over a wall if she would come out of her house. He also accused her of stay ing up all night and burning stuff with which to bewitch people. Since then people had called "witch" after ber in the streets. Iifracombe Gazette. Lord Bherbrooke. Lowe said that when he was minister of education a parent would sometimes consult him about sending his son to a publio school. His invariable answer was: "My advice would be not to send him to a public school. But if you feel bound to send him to your own publio school tako him away as soon as possi ble." I think it was Talleyrand who said of the English public schools, "Elles sont les tneilio'ires du monde. main elleg out detestable!" London Spectator. A FRIEND Speaks through the Bonthhay (Me.) Itrgttlrr, of the heneflcial results he has received from a regular use of Ayer'a Pills. Unsay! "I was feeling sick and tired and my stomach seemed all out of order. I tried a nunilier of remedies, but none seemed to give me relief until I was Induced to try the old relia ble Ayer's fills. I hare taken only one box, but I feel like a new man. I think they are the most pleasant and easy to take ot anything I ever used, being so finely sugar coated that even a child will take them.
