What a joy it would be to Kentucky it the fighters should join hands and make it a good old Kentucky camp meeting. “More Sociable.” A lady who has recently returned from abroad had a curious experience {at the little town of Dinant, in Bel! gium. She was traveling in a party of three, including another lady and a ‘young man. They sought accommodation at a hotel and were shown a room in which there were three beds and on a deal table three basins and jugs about } as big as slop basins and milk jugs. The ladies explained that one room was quite insufficient for their needs, Dr. D. &. Ragan, at the last-named ! & route to Columbia Hill, to attend the . aonig get the hostess to understand but it was a long time before they why. They were then shown another Work Was Commenced at the Mine This Morning. The TRANSCRIPT announced a short time since that Mrs. E. 0. Huntington, owner of the old Banner mine, had bonded the property to responsible parties and that. work would be resumed there very soon. We are pleased to announce. that all the preliminary business has been completed and work of re-opening it was commenced this morning, thus adding another mine which will shortly give employment to a large number of men. That the Banper will prove, when properly developed, a payipg propdsition, no one acquainted with the property will question. Work of development will be rushed ahead as fast as money and hard work will do it. When Tisdale worked the mine in the 70’s he bad over a hundred men employed and our people will yet see as many at work there again, which will be a good thing for the town. saaiemaal = os Mausers and Lee-Enftelas.The chief distinction betwee the Mauser and the Lee-Enfield is this— that while the Lee-Enfield has a magazine which is inserted underneath the body through the trigger guard and se. eured by a catch-and is provided with what is called a “cut off’ to prevent the cartridges from rising, so that. it ean be used as a simple breechloader for single firing until the magazine, which contains ten cartridges, is order ed to be used, the Mauser has a magagine which, though not ‘absolutely’ fixed, is:only intended to be taken off for cleaning. It does not need a “cut off” to use as a single loader. The magazine contains five cartridges, but whereas the cartridges for the Lee-Enfield have, when the magazine is charged, to be each put in separately, the magazine of the Mauser is filled at once by placing against the face of the magazine a set of five cartridges held in a clip which falls off when the cartridges have been inserted in the magazine. Thus if each weapon were at the beginning of a fight empty, the Mauser would permit of more rapid fire because it could be loaded five cartridges ‘at a time, while the Lee-Hnfield would take, cartridge by cartridge, as long to load as a single breechloader. On the other hand, the times when a very rapid discharge of fire is desirable are not numerous, and for these the LeeEnfield has ten cartridges ready against the Mauser’s five.—Nineteenth Century.

Funny Men. The jests of Heliogabulus were very practical. He was fond of inviting people with some physical deformity to dinner and making jokes about them. At times he would invite a dozen hunchbacks or a score of squinting ladies or an equal number of baldheads. Once he put a large number of excessively fat people, all very hungry, into a small chamber where dinner was waiting. There was no room to eat it. Another diversion of which he -was fond was that of placing his guests on air sofas, so that when they were about to drink he could let the air out and have both sofa and guest collapse. It is said that Nero, the Roman emperor, liked to “shy” nuts at the bald heads. of the prztors who sat below during the performance at the theater, and they were expected to maintain their baldheaded dignity and refrain Heaven Twice Found.

This pronunciation must, however, have become common soon afterward. In Duncombe’s “Imitation of Gray’s Elegy” it is rhymed with me, and Garrick rhymes it with flea, which would, 1 suppose, be pronounced then as it is now.
