In doin so the horso shied, and Mr. Wilson was thrown across the track so violently that ho was stunned. Old Rover, owned by Mr. John Wil son, bailiff, was making ono of his noc turnal perambulations through the town about 1 o'clock no doubt doing duty as night watchman. Crossing the track, he noticed the unfortunate individual and immediately set out to alarm Mr. U. A. i Nolan, who resides in the nearest house to the track. Here ho barked and whined until Mrs. Nolan arose to chase him away, but he only returned to continue his bowlings.

A press report has got out to the effect that the Aldine hotel at the World's Fair at Chicago, in which a number of tri-city people are already pecuniarily interested, has failed. Those who have backed the project here and in Davenport, however, con tradict such reports, and a telegraph message sent to Chicago this morning asking for the facts had not been aii swered late this afternoon. English I'ieM Sport. Tho matter of wiro fencing and the kindred difficulty of dealing with im mense fields of horsemen arc so often thrashed out in the papers devoted to field sports that it is not necessary to enter into them here. Masters of hounds are now willing to pay for taking up wiro before tho hunting season begins, and to put it down again in the spring. The difficulties caused by large fields will have somehow to be overcome, either by ceasing to advertise meets or by making it understood (how. perhaps, it is not very r::y to say) that those who come out will have to pay for ificir sport, an idea which, while it is ou.i monly iicted upoii 1 y residents, is often overlooked by :. i'.u-.-s. Field sport.; i:; the British lMand.-: are for the most part artitioial, but hunting is entirely so.

Longfellow calls Erigena a Scotchman, whereas the meaning of the word signi fies an Irishman, and in "The Two An gela" crowns the death angel with ama ranth, the flower emblematic of life, and the life angel with asphodels, the flowers of the grave. Victor Hugo in "Res Tra- vailleurs de la Mer" renders the "Frith of Forth" bv Premier des Quatre and in "Les Miserables" dismisses for good in the middle of the story a character whom he afterward reintroduces and of whom he has much to say.

I I ono day saw a drove of tho small i black ants moving, perhaps to better quarters. Tho distance was some 150 . yards. Most all which came from tho old home carried some of the household goods. Some had eggs, some had what may have answered for their bacon or meat; some had one thing and some an other. I sat and watched them closely for over an hour. I noticed that every timo two met in the way they would hold their heads close together as if greeting one another, and no matter how often the meeting took place this same thing occurred, as t if- ugh a short chat were necessary. To prove more about it, I killed ono who was on his way. Others being eye witnesses to tho murder, went with speed, and with every ut they met this talking took plaeo as liefore. But in stead of a pleasant greeting, it was sad news they had to communicate. I know it was sad news, for every tint that these parties met hastily turned back and fled on another course, as much as to say, ''For tho king's sake and for your safety do not go there, for I have seen a mon ster just behind that is able to destroy us all at ono blow. I saw him kill ono of our family. I do not know how many more are killed." So tho news spread, and it was true. How was tho news communicated if not by speech. Maga zine of Natural History.
