To n native of the "I'eiiuyrlal Dee-
ntrlck" viewing for hU first time the
beauties of tho"llue OriiKH," It seems
lo him aa If lie were hinliieuly
to the "laud of milk and honey"
ami lie wants to fell out Immediately
nil tho eiirtlilv iHiAsessloiiH lie U now
blessed with, and move at oueo Into
Hint far famed region of Kentucky.
Tla truly well culled "The lilue (Iras,"
for It given u person the blues when he
thinks of bin own native heath.
Reaching "White Sulphur Springs,"
one of tlni most fashionable of all sum-Iner
resorts, I find myself lu au
hotel with a multitude of cottages
of all kinds ami uliupea nenttereil
promUeuously aroiinii, accommodating
lu all over 2000 gupnts. Willie liere, I
had the pleasure of meeting the Hon. J
lieu V. Ilrihlow. who is n iiauve 01
Kentucky, and who has tilled many
places of prominence under the obsolete
Republican administration. Mrs.
Huckster, wife of our Governor was
at "Tho White." Tho scenery
idoug tho loute Is rugged lu tho ex
treme; some idea of it may be obtained
frotu tho knowledge of the fact that tho
ChesapeakoA Ohio Railroad cost the
enormous sum of forty-two million
h.iinra. It seems as f the farmers oi
western Kentuoky have a "hurd time"
to eke out u livelihood, but after seeing
miles upon miles of country where
there i not enough level ground to
"whip a dog on," I have ecucluded,
that eveu If we do not equal the Rlue
Orass, that Ohio county Is a pretty
good place after all.
I fuund Aftou located at the samOnrouncmme(a
place I left it last J'far. inn
place is the "Utopia" after all American
watering place?; olUia'e I In a spur
of the Rlue Ridge mountains, It
a view unexcelled by any of
its colleagues. While here, I euguged
lu my llrst fox hunt nnd dually con-eluding
that my valuable (?) assistance
could bo dispensed with, I locnted my
anatomy on tho sldo of the mountain,
and ate huckleberries while the rest of
the party did tbn limiting. Tho succeeding
day, I was a momber of a party
of llvo to IIum.ptu.ck mouutaln,
which reara Its rugged creat 3000 leet
above the level of the sea, nud standing
upou.lts.lofly plunncle, I gazed with
wonder at the sublimity ami magnitude
of the view. On my left,
the Is tho beautiful
valley of tbeSheuandoab, which was so
devastated by Sheridan lu '04. Turning
to tho cast the quiet valley of the Pied
mont unfolds Its beauties to the eye.
Mountains, volley farms nnd rivers lie
as a panorama before you, while between,
the lofty summits of the Rlue
Ridge lower as If striving to reach the
abode of Him who mado them. While
thus engaged, netarlllng nnd yet welcome

mo of tho fact, so I hasted with "alacrity,

After passing some pleasant hnurs, the
girls hegau to Iub "The bright summer
days will fcoou fade away," and
with au evening farewell to the bcHiHiea
of nature, wo turn our hauka to the setting
nin, reaching tho hotel In ample
time for tho pleasure of the evening
Leaving Aftou the C. & O. express
rushra down the mountain s'de, past
the University of Virginia ami Monti-
cello, the old home of Thomas
mm, reaching Richmond, "tho capital
of the Confederacy," wibere so many
battles of vital Importance were contested.
Among thn muuy place and

objects too numerous to detail. Having
"doue" Richmond In a day I took
tho l 1. si. express, reaehiug this place
at 7 o'clock yesterday, nnd listened for
the llrst lime to "what the wild waves
were buying."
"Tho Hygeia" Is a magnificent hotel,
containing nil the latest
and reaching u high degree of
perfection lu Its appointments. Near
by Is Fortresi Monroe, eoutalnlug 500
or COO soldiers and olllcers. The latter
have a "regular plcnlo" all the summer
ami it Is amusing to see how
and conscious they are. A
to them Is nothing, and the civilians,
except the females, reciprocate
the kind (?) feeling.
Across au arm of til" sea nro located
the Invalid Soldiers' Home and Nor
mal School, maintained by Uncle Sam,
who "does, everything up Lrown" that
lie undertakes.
Among the many pleasures at this
famous resort, nro lUhlng, dauclnir,
bathing, and splendid music, enough
to make sue wish it would be "io tern-

Two Ways. Choose "Which!
Thero are two usual ways of doing
w hat Nature somotimes does incompletely,
namely, to rcliovo tho bowels. Ono is
to swallow a dmstio purgative which
evacuates profusely, abruptly nnd with
pain, tho other is to take Hostctter'a
StoniachBittors,tlic effect of which is not
violent, but sufficiently thorough, nud
which docs not gripo tho intestines. If
tlio llrst is selected, the person employing
it need not oxticct permanent
and he cannot bono to escape tho debilitating
reaction which leaves tho organs
as bad or worso off than before. If,
on tho other hand, he resorts to tlio
Hitters, ho can rely upon tlio restoration
of a regular habit pf body, consequent,
upon n renowal of a healthful
tono in tlio intestinal canal. Resides

THE ANNUAL TOURNAMENT ON
THE RAPPAHANNOCK.
I
The Orent Kvent of the Year Calling tho
J Iloll of Tlrnro "Knights" Glory and
, I hliamo "Quocn or Lote and llcauty"
I Crowned.
At lost tho hour of tho tournament
I draws near, nnd all tho vehicles aro ranged
! in lino around tho field whero tho contest
is to talto placo and all nro tilled with
happy occupants; pretty girls in ravishing
, costumes, young men of every typo, old
i men who recall tint days when they con
tended m Knightly lists, ana out mutes
who remember when they word honored
w 1th tho crown.
Tha field, about which all nn crowding,
Is a long, level stretch of pasturo land,
across which has been marked out a
straight eourao, nud at Intervals of about
100 yards ncross it aro built tlireo framo
structures, which strongly remind ono of
gibbets. A btauch upright is sot in tho
grouod, and to Its top Is nailed n cross
bar extending over tho course, whllo from
tho cad of tills bar hangs a ring upon a
hooked wire. Tho object of tho contest
Is to tuko off theso rings upon tho point
of a lauco whllo riding at full speed. At
ono end of tho course is a platform for
the judge.
At length a buglo call summons tho
knights, and they aro seen npproaclilng
nt the far end of tho field. Slowly they
rldo up to tho stand ten of them and,
reining up their horses, form into a lino,
facing tho judges, ready to answer tho
roll call. A. lino looking set of men thoy
aro and mounted upon superb horses.
And now tho call begins. "Tho Knight
of tho Goldcu Key," cries tho herald, and
a young man wearing a wldo bluo sash,
and bearing a lanco tied with tho sama
color, answers "hero. ricxt "tlio Knight
ot Ue. " Grove," and a small, dried
tin lssIrfnsp tnnti Hnobrjl In er tnonMido
LikowUo arts 'called "tlio Kmght of
Sleepy Holtow," "tho Knight of Walnut
11111.'' "lin Knight of Chlncapln," nnd
others.
Tlio roll being over, all fall into an
of attention, whllo tho orator of tho
day delivers tho"ChargoCo tho Knights,"
reminding them of tho joustings of old,
and in many a flowing poriod urging them
on, to win glory and fame for tlio tako of
their fair ladies. Tills ends tho
narics, and there Is a general stir among
the crowd in tlio effort to got good post
tlons trom whlch t0 vlow tb rlo?ing.
A HUSII OF EXPCCTANCV.
Now, all Is ready, and tho hush t
falls upon tho peoplo. Suddenly
tlio buglo call bursts out amid tho silence,
and tho herald criw, "Tho Knight of tho

ranks, and fixing his lance, spurs his horse
into a rapid run, nnd, his eyes upon tho
first ring, rushes toward it. On tiles his
steed, sending tho looso earth in showers
behind him, and as ho passes tho first support,
tho knight carries away tlio ring
upon his lanco. In a moment ho is upon
tho second, hut misses it by a hair's
breadth, bending it Bplnnlng far Into tho
crowd; tlio last ho takes, and rides slowly
back, llu shed with his triumph, amid tho
cheers of tho crowd.
Tho rings nro replaced, and tho next in
order essays tho feat, bat fails to tako n
singlo ring. And so, in turn all try, each
making a striking picture as his stout
steed bears him on lilto an arrow, and ho
sits firm nnd erect In his saddle, his lanco
straight beforo him, his gay ribbons
btreaming in tho wind, hts ejo fixed upon
tho coveted It needs a stont heart.
a steady hand and a tnio eyo to succeed
motion may not only miss tlio ring, but
throw tho luckless knight headlong from
his horso.
At length each knight has thrlco essayed
tho run; sotno nro covered with glory nnd
somo with shanio. Aud now comes tho
most exciting tinio, for tlireo knights have
each tho samo scoro and must rldo out the.
tlo. Hy this timo tho horses have como
to understand what Is required of them,
and the spirit of tho sport has telzed upon
each man a heart. Tho riding is BUperb.
Again and again they run, each taking
nil the rings each timo, until at last ono
of tho knights misses and retires. Now
comes tho strugglo of the champions.
Tho crowd. Is wrought up to the greatest
enthusiasm, aud watch with breathless
Interest each knightly contestant, and
break Into deafening cheers at each success.
At lost another ring is missed, and
tho "Knight of tho Golden Key" stands
victor. As 'ho rides for tlio last timo
down tho Cold toward tho judges' stand
his horso flecked with foam, his faco
blazing beneath his broad brimmed hat
tho peoplo burst into wilder choers, girls
wavo their handkerchiefs, boys throw
their hats in tho air, and all Is confusjon.
cnowNiJfo the QUEnN.
And now ho reaches tho platform and
salutes tho judges. Tho crown is hung
upon his Unco's cud. Then slowly ho
rides along tho outskirts of tho crowd,
until ho comes to a carriage whero sits tho
lady whoso colors ho wears, and whoso
faco is now radiant with smiles for her
knight's success. Reaching her ho dismounts
and drops tho crown ut her feet,
thus choosing nor "Queen of Lovo and
Beauty," whllo tho acclamations of tho
trowd attest their approval of his choice
Vcanwhllo tho knights who havo won the.
iccond and third plates havo received
smaller crowns, aud hasten likewise to
bestow them upon their ladies, making
thera "Maids of Honor."
And now for nn hour Is a pauso, whllo
tho crowd breaks up into groups and discusses
tho riding and its results. As it is
growing toward evening, many seizo tho
opportunity to cat tho lunches thoy havo
brought with them, or aro carried off by
friends to sup In tho neighboring farm
houses.
At length tho bugle call rings out onco
moro and tho crowd reassemble near tho
stand. "Tlio Knight of tlio Golden Key"
leads his lady upon tho platform, whllo
tho "Knight of Walnut Hill" nnd tho
"Knichtof Warsaw" follow with their
maids of honor. Thoy aro mot by tho
judges and by tho most famous speaker
of tho country, who proceeds to mako a
long and flowery oration, ending by
crowning tho ladles, amid tho plaudits of
tho crowd. It. W. Graves in Detroit Freo

Study of the Hypnotic State.
Dr. A. Dichas has mado n detailed study
of tho memory In tho hypnotic state, nnd
summarizes his main conclusions
as follows: (1) during tlio hypnotic
sleep tho subject remembers the experiences
of his wiking Ufo ns well rs of
previous hypnosis; (2) in hypnotism tlicro
is often an exalt tion of tho memory, and
at times n cliang in Its content, leading
to tho assumpti n of a foreign
(3) tho mo nory of what has been
going on during hypnosis is usually lost,
it can often bo ruvlvcd by n simplo suggestion,
and at times the memory of a
suggested hallucination may l!.,jor on.
and influenco thu waking condition; (4)
tho operator cau at his wjll havo any of
tho nets of the liypnotK state remembered
or forgotten by maMug this a part
of tho suggestion; (5) sitgjfcstion seems to
bo largely explicable 'as unconscious
memory.
Dr. Cybulski has studied tho power of
hypnotic subjects to hypnotlzo themselves.
IIo finds that such subjects
strongly Imagiuo for a mlnuto or less that
that tho operator commands them to go
to sleep, nnd tho desired result ensues.
Furthermore, If tlio subject, on going to
sleep, imagines himself controlled by a
certain person, then, even though another
sent him to sleep, he will bo subject to
tlio former, nnd not to tho operator.
These observations show the Importance
of tho subjectivo clement in tho process
of hypnotism, nnd Indicate tho method by
which tho subject unconsciously takes
suggestions and acts upon them. Dr.
Bcrkhan has applied hypnotism to the
amelioration of the hearing of tho deaf.
Ho tested tho hearing of nino deaf boys,
and, after hypnotizing them, spoko to
them and had varions.noises made before
them Tho hearing of four of them was
found to bo Improved, and tho improve
merit is reported as still persisting after

Ancient aud 3todorn Greece.
Tlio traveler Is often rudely shocked hy
tho contrast between tho reality of tho
presont and tho ideal picture of tho ancient
Arcadian Ufo of tho rural districts
or tho intellectual and artistic Ufo of
Athens. Hut doubtless if wo could bo
transported back to ancient Greoco, wo'
should find much that would not pleaso
us In tho dolly Ufo of tho peoplo. Men
may say, " Tis Greece, but living Greoco
no moro;" It is still au enchanted land for
me. No other civilized country withdraws
tho visitor so rar from tno ordinary
of tho present; no other laud affords
so many suggestions of tho llfo of tho ancients
from whom our civilization comes.
1 um suro that I understand Greek art
better becauso of my lifo for a few weeks
under tho Athenian sky. A fow days in
Peloponnesus, aud a few moro in Central
Grccco, gavo mo a clearer comprehension
of Greek political history. Tho Homeric
ago seems moro of a reality after a study
of tho ruins of Tiryns and Mycenai. The
pastorals of Theocritus havo now lifo and
meaning when tho traveler bears tho shepherd's
pipo and rustic singers vioin
strains, whllo ho cats bread and milk
from tho wooden bowls which his hosts
havo carved.
A few of tho ancient customs survive.
The lover of Homer Is delighted to find
thr.t the Greeks still throw back tlio head
to express dissent or refusal, and that the
trim niuld still pours water on tho visitor's
hands. Somo old superstitions have remained,
notably that of tolling a disturbing
dream to tho rising buu, In order that
the threatened ill may bo averted. No
land is moro thickly peopled with fairies
and every kind of benevolent aud malignant
spirits than tho Greoco of today.
Doubtless many of tho ecclesiastical customs
of tho present havo been molded
by tho superstitions of tho past. Thomas
D. Seymour in Scrlbner's Magazine,
llio Origin of Pottery M'urc.
Every man. no doubt, used his gourd as
a gourd alono. But as timo went on ho
began at last, apparently, to employ it as
a model for pottery also. In all probability
his earliest lessons in tlio fictllo art
wero purely accidental. It Is a common
trick with snvages to put water to warm
on tho camp firo in a calabash or gourd
with wot clay snioarcd over tho bottom to
keep it from burning. Whenever tho
clay thus employed was fine cuough to
form a mold and bako hard in shape, it
would cling to tlio gourd, aud bo used
timo and again in tho samo way without
renewal, till utlast it cunoto bo regarded
almost as a component port or tho compound
vessel. Traces of thla stago in tho
evolution of pottery still exist lu various
outlying corners of tho world. Savages
havo been noted who smear their dishes
with clay; and bowls may bo found In
various museums which still contain moro
or less intact tho relics of tho natural object
on which they were modeled. In ono
case tho thing being Imbedded lu tho clay
bowl Is a human skull, presumably an
enemy's.
In most cases, howover, tho inner gourd
or calabash, in proiiortlon as it was well
coated up ia tho very top with a good
productlvo layer of clay, would tend to
get mimeu out uy tno neat or tno nro in
tho course of time; until at last tho Idea
would arlso that tho natural form was
nothing mora than a mero mold or model,
aud that tho earthenware dish which grew
up around It was tho substantlvo vessel.
As boou as this btago of pot making was
arrived ut, tho process of firing would
dcliberato, instead of accidental,
and tho vessel would only bo considered
comploto as boon as It had boon subjected
to a great heat which would effectually
burn out the gourd or calabash Imbedded
lu tho center. Grant Allan in Popular
Sclcuco Monthly.

"All men havo their faults, and stealing

Perhaps when two enemies, who havo
to soo any good lu each other on
this earth, meet hereafter lu another
world, freo from tlio muddy vesturo of
decay which clogs their vision hero, tho
first thought of each will bo, "Is this tho
beautiful soul that I maligned aud hated!"
