All tile players sit around In a circle The player who first thinks of au inter sting character In one of Urtmiu's fairy tales or in "Alice In Wonderland" r any other book that Is unite familiar all the players sits ou the floor wltli S the circle and begins to descrilf the character. The other children listen carefully, and the first one who thinks be has guessed the character sits on the Ooor beside the other and continues to descrllie the character. If he has guessed rightly and is correct in his description, the first player allows him to ou describing, but If he is luls takeu the first player shoos him out of Sue game. As soon as a child thinks he Has guessed the character he sits ou the floor and tells what be knows of the character, and so It goes ou till all the children are sitting oa the floor ex cept those who have guessed wrong, and they are all driven out of the fume. .

IVt'ore Christmas It was rumored through the barracks (bat liflvls and other southern and southwestern cadets were going to ex plaiu to the other members of the rorps the mvsterles of eggneg Cadets Davis, Ttlghmau and Temple were to get the necessaries bum Benny's, but It seems that something prevented, and .ithers had to get the mat-rials. The authorities were suspicious and or dered the Inspectors to stay up all night to keep order. This angered the radets, and the preparations for the eggnog went on. In the dark of the morning of Dec. U." the Invitations were sent out. ItolHM't K. Lee and Jo seph K. Johnston declined. J. It. Ma ) cruder. Drayton. C. J. Wright and oth- ers accepted. Davis was extending the i Invitations wheu he heard a rumor that Captain Hitchcock was abroad. He ran back to No. ." north barrncks. where the refreshments were collected. called out. "Put away that grog, Ixiys: old Hitch Is ecu inje." and looked up to tiud that Hitchcock was already In fie room. Davis was sent to his quarters under arrest, fortunately for him. for nfter some hilarious noise he went to sleep and did nut get into the riot which then hog::n. The Instructors and officers were chased out of the i"s In u.iir own rooms and there besieged. The cadets obtained arms and organized the Helvetian league to protect themselves against the Iioui bardlers, who. tiey heard, were or dered out to subdue them. Davis' room mate, Walter It. Union of Mississippi, was the leader of the Helvetians. He secured a pistol und tried to shoot Captain HltchcocK. Some of the otll- I core were badlv bruised with stove ; wood that the cadets threw at them i After an hour or two the riot wore out. I-ater nineteen cadets, among them Guion. were court martialed aud dismissed. Dai Is. with others, was kept long under arrest and given de merits. Professor W. I Fleming In Metropolitan Magazine. NEW ENGLAND WITCHES. A Small Record Compared With That of Other Countries. Yankees hive so long and so loudly confessed their ancestral sius that the facts In the case are little known. So much Is said about Salem that the exe cution of witches In Pennsylvania Is overlooked. The scant score of persons hanged for witchcraft In New England causes more comment than the many thousands legally burned for that crime bi Europe. In all New England, according to Nathaniel Hawthorne, nineteen per sons were executed as witches. One I more was accused of the "rime aud i for refusal to plead was pressed to 'death, after the custom of the day. ' The facts concerning the widespread .iiclief iu witchcraft and the enormous ' nti'.iber of witches killed may Ik I found 'it any encyclopedia Haydn's I Di.-tli-nary of Dates says: "More than PHi.ihmi perished, mostly by the flames in fjermany." Chambers' En cyclopedia says: "In England and Scot land the witch mania was somewhat later In setting In than on the conti nent, but wheu It did so It was little if at all less virulent, the reformation notwithstanding." "The number of victims In Scotland from first to la: ; has been estimated at upward of JuiKi" Dr. Spreuger in his "Life of Mohammed" computes the entire limn Ikt of persons who have been burned as witches during the Christian ct.och at !i.i;jO Witchcraft persecutions in New Lug land took place in 1002. They were nil done in six mouths. In England they continued till well Into the lie.'.t i eti tury. In 103 a reputed w'zard was drowned In a pond at Iledingham, In Essex. Says Chambers. "It was con sidered worthy of notice that nearly all the sixty or seventy persons con- eraed iu the outrage were of the small tradesmen e'ass. none of the agricul tural laborers b.-ing mixed up in the aiTair."- Springiield lb-publican.
