The people of Lawrence, an aris tocratic quarter of recent creation near Far Rockaway, are mystified and puzzled by the appearance of a specter in the belfry of the Metho dist Episcopal Church. The women and children have come to regaitl it as the veritable ghost of a deceased sexton, and persons of acute imag ination do not hesitate to declare that the- have heard the church bell ring at unseasonable hours. The men gather in dark places every night to observe the strange sight and compare notes as to the proba ble character of the apparition. It flits about the belfry in the most nimble fashion, one time ascending to the apex of the steeple and at an other executing a dance on the slant ing roof. It plays hide and seek in the lattice work of the bell-room, enlarging and decreasing in size ac cording to the angle of observation. A remarkable thing about it is that it never appears on a Sunday night. The story of the strange sight lias reached several villages, and every night scores of persons walk or drive to the vicinity of the Lawrence Church to verify it. Some of them declare that the specter has followed them home and hung around their residences for hours, like one trying to revive a broken friendship. Last Saturday night the strange figure was more than usually active, and scores of persons kept their eyes fixed on it until, benumbed by the cold, they were driven home. Half the village declares that at precisely 10 o'clock the bell was tolled, and the other half is laughing at the su perstition, as they call it. Immedi ately after the tolling, three hearty amens were heard, and then the specter flattened itself out on the roof. This was interpreted to be an attitude of prayer. After a few min utes there was seen the liveliest skipping in and out of the lattice work, and then the phantom ran up and down the surface of the steeple, concluding by perching on the top, and disappearing in the direction of the graveyard. No person likes to walk by the edifice alone, and those who drive pass with all possible speed. No graveyard goblin ever created half the excitement. It is said that one night the sexton found the bell rope broken, and fearing to go into the loft no bell was rung, and the people interpreted the silence to mean that the prayer-meeting had been postponed. Next day, to the surprise of the sexton, the rope was found inact, and that mystery is still puzzling all who believe the story. An old Irishman in the neighbor hood offered to make an investigation any night if some one would provide him with a candle blessed by a priest of the Catholic Church. There was none to be had in Lawrence, but one was procured from Far- Rockaway, and then the old man of strong faith was ordered not to dare to go near the church with his heretical taper. All sorts of devices are suggested to arrive at a solution of the illumina ted mystery, but no person seems to have the moral courage to put any plan into execution beyond watching the adjacent graveyard to see if the ghost does not rise out of some grave. Brooklyn Eagle. The Strongest 3Iau In Xcvarta. There is a man in Nevada named Angela Cardelia who claims to be the strongest man in the world. He i3 an Italian, aged 3S, and stands five feet ten inches, weighing 133 pounds. His strength was born with him, for he had no athletic training. He differs from other men chiefly in the osseous structure. Al though not of unusual size, his spinal column is much beyond the ordinary width, and his bones and joints are made on a similarly largo and generous scale. lie has lifted a man of 200 hundred pounds with the middle finger of his right hand. The man stood with one foot on the floor, his arms outstretched, his hands grasped by two persons to balance his body. Cardelia then stooped and placed the third finger of his right hand under the man's foot, and with scarcely any percepti ble effort raised him" to the height of four feet and deposited him on a table near at hand. Once two pow erful men waylaid Cardelia with in tent to thrash him, but he seized one in each hand and hammered them togethor until life was nearly knocked out of them. His strength is inherited, for he says his father was more powerful than himself. rBoston Post. The Amenities of Iiife. "You are a liar, sir." " You are a gentleman." " Ah !

There may still be sometime by the curious in old-fashioneu , elers' shops those hospitals " for buckles, snuff-boxes, quizzing class es, seals, huge cameo pins and bat tered silver fittit knives those flat j and lusterless bloodies, almost as large as door plates on which droop ing female figures -mourn in deep j distress under the t-haiiow of a weep j ing elm, the branches of which ate iasmoncu oi a stratgiit-guramed hair that once curled in life, and now falls stiffly over a sarcophagus. Broken pillars lie about among an chors and other symbols of hope and piety ; railings and yews and mel ancholy firs are there in brooding clumps and clusters; and down the sky, wheiein the sun is emblematic ally setting, there not infrequentlv descends a dove, that either bill's another in descending, or settles touchingly on the capitals and cu pola of a classic mausoleum. It may be a cemetry where the high waisted lady grieves, with walks that wind up to temples or down to other groups of mourners. Often the scene of woe lies in a grove, where the faithful Charlotte, in an enormous hat, comes to deposit a wreath on the final resting-place of that restless spirit "Wcrther, over whose sorrows scarcely a tear has been shed for fifty yeais, and whose power to touch the heart of votith seems to almost have vanished. "Wherever it may be, cemeterv or grove, on the banks of the river or by the wave of the sea, figures and tombs and landscapes will be a)l found to be outlined and shaded in hair, with infinite patience, no little skill, in a taste as faded and dead as that of the old samplers that hang in Yorkshire farm-houses under the gun, the brass beer-warmer, and the polished coal-pinchers. In those old days the days of the flat brooches sensibility was a fashionable virtue. Every young lady wept with "Wcr ther, and sighed ;ith the unfortu nate and amiable heroines of the marble-backed little volumes one still finds on book stalls next Shinelv on "Revelations" and "Whackleton on "Tubetcular Meningitis." Every young gentleman claimed to be a man of feeling, and dropped easy tears over a noble sentiment or a distressful tale, where now it is more in vogue for him to laugh and show his teeth. Comhill Magazine. A Tonsh Story. The city of San Francisco is ad vertised as containing more badness to the square mile than any other given area on the map of the world. It is in view of this astonishing rep utation that a satiricallv inclined individual relates the " following story : A group of Eastern emigrants weie sadly gathered upon the deck of a Caliloinia bound steamer. The last fond glance to home and friends was given, the last adieux spoken, and, with the foiced silence of resigna tion, the little partv turned their faces toward tin new land. Sud denly a despairing wail burst from the lip of It pale ami lciigious-look-ing young woman, who lushed to the side of the veMsel, and, gazing up to Heaven with pathetic hopeless ness, exclaimed "(Jood-by, Cod!
