JEFFERSON ON SNORING.
aacldenta of an Old-Time st -f;e . Jooroey
Aero;, the Allegtuiti ea.
A short way .from town there was a
lorif hill up which tho borso? tolled, so
this ffave the inniaics of tuo coach timo
to settle theni'lvfls 'ln' for a quiot

miscraMo eomliMon. I tusvnv beftnra had
so tino an onpn! -t'lnity to study tin"
philosophy of si)prir,ir. A l.trre. fat man
jpposito rue had a snoi'i, unary snore;
at one tiir.t he fttrorfd i ioutlly that ho
woko hi ms;l f up, and he bad tb impu
.lonoe to shout a tc ccmpnny as
thouith he hiip-'ii, -jhat ti)"y wn'.ild hot

who wrr cit!iihiir up in the corner
mored do piy conv-njedly. Some
no o(I in a dark corner, whom I could
lot soo, had a eniti uay o? joining in,

the paswn(ror8; but tho grand, original
muscian of the party Fat opposite mo.
I never heard any thing approaching
him, either for quality or for cort'pass.
It was a back-action snore that bejan In
bold agilnto movement, suddenly
brought up with a jerk, and terminated
in a low whistle. As tho coach steadily
moved up the hill tho band was in full
play. The summit gained, there was a
ibarp crack of the whip, the horse
started, and as every body was jorked
violently backward, the snoring gave
place to oaths and pshaws and jolting
ilxiut. As soon, however, as we got
mod to this sensation, the chorus began
igaih; and as I was quite overcome and
tired, I joined In until the coach came
to a full stop at the stable where the
horses were to be changed. The sun
now rose and came in at all sorts of
places, waking and blinding every body
What a discontented and unhappy lot
we were! and how we all hated one an
other! Breakfast at last! Ah! hot coffee, ham
and eggs and buckwheat cakesl The
meal was not half over before we were a
band of brothers. We could not do
enough for one another, and all was
harmony And peace. Of course under
those conditions we became more fa
miliar, and one vied with another in
making the time pass agreeable.

Where do slang phrases originate?
Thousands, of people habitually indulge
in the use of slav.g without a thought or
a care a; to the source from which the
vulgar phrase came, and often without
the slightest idea of its original mean

A few years ago, says the Boston
Globe, a celebrated 'polo team was play

chusetts cities with a team from a
neighboring city. Tho visiting team.
called the Star, wore its name conspicu
ously embroidered on the breast of the
shirt.
As the game progressed it became evi
dent to the spectators that the referee,
who was in sympathy v.;th the visiting
team, was unfair in I.:.', decisions. This
caused great ill ieo'.it p specially as the
members of the ti irx were rough and

A D. 79. Dr. James C. tcllr.ifr. presi

Washington, has been studvinrr tho
features of t' Is ancient election, as
they arc recorded upon the walls and

was made known by his friends po' t

After a candi lade's nnmo had been

met at the l"oii;nj on election day to
deposit their ballots, and fell into line
as mendoatthepollsnow. Thero were,
three judges oi election, and each can
didate was permitted to station ono of
his own men at the ballot box. to see
that no intimidation vas practised.
The ballot box was very clo-.ely

the "machine" a Sne opportunity for
a gerrymander.
The Pompciians "whooped it up" for
their can iilates in the true modern
style. Thus the Late Topers, who had
their headquarters opposite tho forum,
announced their preferen es on a bill
board as follows: "The Late Topers beg
their friends to vote for Jlarou.
Lavinius Vatia for aedile."

ing circles, evidently had som 0 money
to spend in the legitimate expenses of
his campaign, for all his notices and
announcements are well giot up. His
rival, Popidius, either did not looic
after hia campaign', or else 1 ad no
money to employ a competent bill
poster, for his notices are misspelled,
and in all respects unequal to Vatia's.
Thelms, a tavernkeeper on tho Via
Storta, wanted C. Gavins Rnfus and M.
Holconins lrif.eus elected duumvirs.
1'hey had probably promised to get his.
taxes lowered, or that the polictnihould
let his place alone. Therefore Thebus
had all the walls in his neighborhood
decorated with "Thebus and his cus
tomers nominate C. Gavins llufusaiid
M. Holconins Priseus for duumvirs."
The electors did not mind stirring up
candidates who expected their friends
to do all the work for them. One in
scription reads: "O Kubmihts, keep
your eyes. open!" And In fans is prod
ded as follows: "0 lnfans. you are fa t
asleep, and yet you say you are elec
tioneering!" There was a tavern In the first ward
where a primnry waa probably held.
At any rate, a large crowd had assem
bled, and the landlord very obligingly
provided seats. For this he was ro- I
warded by an inscription on -the wall.
The sentiment was better than tho
grammar: '
"O, landlord you did great to get us
them chairs!"
Unluckily. Dr. Welling could find
no record of bow this ejection turned
out. Probably the Slid and :'4tli of Au
gust came before election day arrived.

The Yiddish of Poland and Germany in
very different from that of tho oa-t

based In a very large measure on the
former.
In other words, rays the Jewish
Chronicle, it is influenced by its envi

cvolntUpiii.-.ts lire so fond. The basis
of Hebrew words, with their ancient
enerustrutions of who knows what'

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A SOMBER CANADIAN LEGEND.
The Story or a Human Telnj A-suml:is;
the Mmpp or n Vi'o.f.
Tho werewolf legend constitutes ono
of the most somber of tho traditionary
beliefs osi ting in J rench Canada.
The story of a human being assuming
a wolf 's shape, is certainly one of thu
most generally diffused throughout the
world and the werewolf story comes
down to us from old T.oman times Tho
French Canadian believes that if a per
son docs not partake of the sacrturont
for seven years he will turn into a loup
garou a shapeless animal without
head or limbs; the loup-.-nrou might
nl:o appropriate the form of a wildcat,
a haro. a fo:; or even a lilac!: hen but
at eight lie waa obliged to range
through woods and desert places. At
dead of night tho loup garou t tenia
from his bed; climbing the 'highest
tree in the neighborhood, be hides in
its branches, and is instantly trans
formed into bestial shape lie. is en
dowed with supernatural speed and
strength. A fierce er.iuturo, with ap
petites exaggerating tho:o of tlieni.i
mal ho resembles, his especial delight
is in slaughtering and devouring little
children. When he returns to human
semblance he may be recognised by his
excessive leanness, wild eyes nnd hag
gard countenance. In order to regain
his estate of humanity it is necessary
that the blood of the mon; ter should
bo shed. This kindly oClc . being per
formed by a friend a complete restora
tion results. In many part, of tho
country cats of three colors wero con
sidered lucky, thcroforo tho fortunate
possessor of a puss mottled with black,
white and gray, should preserve tho
animal carefully. When a Canadian
lumberman is sufilciently fortunate to
shoot a deer I e wrap 1 himself at night
in the skin, in order to keep olr witch
es. The souls of tho lost, or spirits in .
purgatory, naturally oceu led a prom
inent positiop in Canadia.i folklore.
The dead frequently returned" to tho "
world; among old-fashioned pM-sonsr
there wero few who had not hel l con
verse with a spirit or revenant. In
punishment for sin t'.iodead were often
detained on the scene f their past mis-,
deeds. Ono dead parson could not help
or relieve another; tho wrong commit
ted on earth could only be righted by
tho intervention of a living being. Tho
evil spirit.-! wero unable to cross tho
blessed waters of tho River St. Law
rence without tho help of a Christian.
Tneso haunting spirit ! were numerous
and of various des "riptions.

Tho women of North America havo

very small, delicately formed, with
taper fingers curved a little at tho ex

of Vicomtcsse de Gnlard in exquisite.
It recalls Canova's ftalues, of which
the hands aro smaller and morn aris

An Inter.s'lnT Event In a Cviyon ( tha
U1-; Horn HI untitlns.
Col. Jack Reynold , of the Big Horn
country, was in Washington recently,
says tha Star. This is his first trip
to the east sinjo ha went west in the
infancy of that section, and is his first
visit to Washington.
"What is thj most interesting Mon
tana subject." saii the reporter, "poli
tics or bears?"
"Wo still talk sliver a good deal, and
tho tariff comes in for a share of no
tice, but a bear story can get the floor
fro ia u political story any day in the
wuolc. Wo hjvo one of the most pe
culiar bear c ntntri j i in tho world. We
have ia the liig Horn mountains, just
twonty-flvo miles fro a the monument
which stands on tho hogback where
the Cu ter massacre took place, what
ii called tho lllac'e canyon. This ia
the most remarkable canyon in the
west. Mo man has been known to
pass through it. Several have entered
it with tho intention of traveling
through, but t'.ioy aro now numbered
with the missing. Tho canyon is lit
tle moro than a great, fissure, so
deep that at noonday the stars
shine into it as at midnight It is a
very gloomy place and it ia pretty
well wooded with pines. In the fall of
tho year t'.ils is the resort of tho (fri
zly, and each fall they hold, away np
about midway between the ends of the
fissure, what i i called the, bear dance.
Just before going into winter quarters
about all tho grizzlies In the Big Horn
mountains, an I there are plenty of
them, meet in this gulch. They have
done it every year, and for so many
years that the memory of man runneth
not to t 0 contrary. It usually happens
about the end of Ucptember.. f he bears
begin their festivities about eleven
o'clock at night, and continue them
till porhaps three o'clock in the morn

Desperate Situations nf Diffident Yeast;
Orators.
Some amusing examples of. uninten
tional tronrpositlons are given in a recently-published
collection of "Hulls
and lilunders." Slips of the kind
usually result from nervousness rather
than from ignorance, but It is a ques
tion which was responsible in the case
of tho pompous colored preacher who
t Id bis Hock that it was "easier for a
camel to go through the knee of an
idol than for a rich man to enter
Heaven."
Not so In the case of the courtly and
cultivated George William Curtis, who,
it is said, was so overcome with stage
f ight when he commenced his first
lecture that instead of the reference
to the bottomless pit which he intend
ed to muke, he astonished his hearers
by beginning tremulously:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the pittom
less botl !"
The crowning specimen of ludicrous
helplessness in the face of elusive
ryllables is that of the unfortunate
(speaker who, at a pathetic point of his
address, when hi hero was about to
undergo a heartrending parting from
home and friends, uttered, in his most
melting voice:
"Hichly, dlddy "
He stopped confused; flushed, sef
his mou h and tried again, with a
difilcnlt resumption of the interrupted
pathos:
"Diildy. biddy-"
Something was wrong still. Ilegrew
r.carlct, perspired, and gasped forth a
third attempt, not more intelligible.
I.'is bearers could, none of them inter
pret it. It might be High German, or
it might be a Mother Goose refrain:
"Diddy, hiddy, biddy doo!"
The situation was desperate; but the
persistent orator rallied, paused until
he had fully recovered his self-control,
and trying once more, with slow utter
ance and distinct enunciation, con
quered at length the simple phrase
which had overthrown him. lie said:
"Did ho bid adieu?" .. I
