McManus, in Time. TOO MUCH ALIKE. The Trouble a Young Lawyer Had. with Pretty Twins. Ttes," assented Mr.

Bird, with evident appreciation, as he ran his fingers caress ingly through his iron gray hair; "yes, sir, as you observe, they are very pretty girls, and their likeness to each other, in every way, is truly wonderful." The remark was made in answer to a tribute of respect which the writer had paid to a pair of young ladies I use the word pair" advisedly, because they were twins who had passed out of the office of Mr. Bird, one of the oldest and most highly respected members of the Middlesex bar. "I knew the mother of those girls and her sister and their parents more than thirty years ago. The grandparents of thote girls were clients of the man with whom I read law, and afterward their children became my clients, and now I am the legal adviser of both the grandchildren. I don't think, however, that those children are as much alike as were their mother and her sister.

Tou could not tell them apart at all unless you had them together." At this point one of the young ladies returned, with a little rush and flurry, saying, in a very pretty tone "I beg your pardon, Mr. Bird, but I went "Don't apologize, don't apologize, I prayr Miss Miss ah, Miss Annie. I am only too glad to see you in my office or my home at any time." "Alice, you mean, Mr. Bird; but I thank you for the compliment all the same," and sway she fluttered. "Confound it!" growled the old gentleman, as he resumed his scat, after closing the door upon the fair visitor.

"I'd have sworn that one was Annie." Then he looked up with a smile, after thinking a few minute's, and resumed: "If you can spare five minutes and care to hear it, I will tell you how I came near going crazy getting acquainted with the mother of those young ladies and her sister." Of course, nothing would please me better, and I said so at once. Mr. Bird produced an ancient and most respectable brand of cigars, and when we had lighted ap, he proceeded 'The maiden name of those young ladies' mother and her twin sister was Van Scriver, nd their father, old John Van Scriver, was a large farmer and miller, quite wealthy, residing near Princeton. I had been ad mitted to the bar only about a year when he lied, and my preceptor, in whose office I was still located, had the settlement of the estate. "On one occasion he wrote to the girls, who were the only heirs, that he needed memoranda from some papers in the homestead, and that on a day he mentioned he would be there them, asking the girls to look up the papers in the meantime.

When the day came the old man was particularly engaged, and asked me to take his horses and carriage and do the errand I was only too glad to oblige him. "In due season I reached the homestead, was received by a staid, elderly housekeeper and ushered into the parlor, where I was. greeted by one of the brightest and most beautiful young ladies I had ever met with. I told her who I was and how I came to be there. That is all satisfactory, Mr.

Bird. We ire glad to see any friend of Mr. Adair's. Be seated, and I will have the papers ready tor you in a few minutes. Excuse me, and she disappeared.

"I sat pleasurably thinking of the young lady who had just left me, when the housekeeper came in with cake and wine.after the then good, old-fashioned custom, and soon left me to enjoy them. I had been alone again but a very short time, it appeared to me, when the young lady returned with papers in her hand but instead of coming forward, she stopped and stared at me in the most embarrassing way. "Did you find the papers I asked, in my best society tones. she exclaimed, with a Jack Frost in her beautiful voice. 'Did I 'Find the papers you went 'What are you talking about! Who are you, sir, and pray what are you doing "The only thing I'm doing at present, madam, I responded in tones quite as glacial as her own, 'is leaving here as soon as KJh, thank you she replied, with lofty urbanity, as the maddest young man in New Jersey slammed the door behind him.

"Long afterward I learned that I had hardly driven away when the housekeeper re-entered the room, and Miss Laura Van Scriver, witn her dignity still at its full height, demanded: 'Who was that horrid, impudent young man I found the parlor just 'Why, he's the young man Mr. Adair sent down for some papers that Miss Maggie has gone to get. Where is "Miss Laura responded by dropping into a chair and exclaiming, with almost a scream: "Oh, my! haven't I done it! Why, Mrs. Elkins. I actually drove the poor fallow out Af the house.

What in the world will 1 do! Don't, for gracious sake, tell Maggie. I'll make it up with Mr. Adair somehow, indeed I wilL' "The result was that Miss Maggie Van Scriver never heard of my cavalier treat-ment, and was for a time filled with wonder as to what manner of business man I could possibly be, having driven fifteen miles to do an errand and then gone off without courtesy or performance. "1 nursed my wrath and kept it nice and warm until I reached home, and then poured it all out to Mr. Adair, whose laughter was so long and uproarious that I took on a fresh installment of virtuous indigna tion, and was about giving the old gentleman a piece of my mind when he bade me shut no.

COOPEB, EL O. uanaaa Bpeounut, TERRIBLE CALAMITY. A Flood Drovrm Sight Out of a Family ot Eleven Persons. Captain Newton Faulkinbury, Deputy United States Marshal, tells the Little Rock (Ark.) Gazette the following story On his trip to Conway and Van Buren counties the other day he learned that during a heavy rain-storm in that section of the State an old man named Emmerson had tho misfortune to lose his wife and seven children in a flood. As near as he could learn there had been a tremendous rain near Clinton, the county seat of Van Buren County, on the upper Red river.

Emmer son, who is an old settler in Van Buren County, was with his family in his house when the storm was raging. After an hour's rain the water gradually flooded his house, and fearing danger inside he gathered two of his children in his arms and made for the oor to escape. As the door opened a huge log afloat dashed in the entrance and knocked the little ones from his arms. They fell at his feet into the swift current and were lost. He then took up two more, one in each arm, and succeeded in getting out with them safely, telling his wife to follow with the others; but in attempting to escape in the same manner the mother, with two children in her arms and three clinging to her dress, was carried down with the flood and drowned.

The father and two children, the only ones left in a family of eleven, escaped with theyr lives. The night was dark and the father, with the only two survivors of his large family stood in water above his waist clinging to a tree for several hours, and when the waters subsided in the morning a search was made for the dead bodies of the mother and seven children. They were discovered scattered here and there for a considerable distance around the place, their clothing having caught in the underbrush, and the bodies were held fast in that way. Iwo were found in the garden lot a short distance from the house, where they had been carried by the force of the water, and others as far as fifty yards from the house. A HABITABLE HACK.

An Ingenions Idea of a Road-Car for Summer Excursions. A. J. McMaster first conceived the idea of getting up a road-car for summer excur sions into the country number of years ago, says the Buffalo Courier. He gradual ly evolved its many conveniences from out bis inner consciousness till last fall, when he had the body built in this city.

The re mainder of the vehicle was built at Lock- port, where it was put together, and painted and christened the Niagara. The car weighs one thousand seven hun dred pounds, it 13 a trine longer than a hack, but not as heavy, owing to there being very little iron-work about iL The woods used are 'ash, cherry and white- wood. In front is the driver's seat, which, by turning over deftly, discloses two oil stoves and all the paraphernalia of a miniature kitchen. Behind this is a little com partment where are arranged, with a com pactness truly remarkable, drawers for dishes and provisions, a washstand, water for drinking, a closet, and a reversable table. The rear compartment is separated by a sliding door set in a regular partition.

Here is found the living room. Red plush seats run along the sides; at night the backs may be-raised, a screen let falL and behold two sleeping-rooms with a couple of berths in each. Beneath the lower berths are lockers for additional provisions. On the floor are handsome rugs and at the end original hand paintings. Curtains rustle with a homelike air and camp-stools furnish seats around the festive board.

Below is slung the driver's bed in a sort of patent hammock, while oil and tools are suspended at his feet. To be appreciated the car must be Been. The car was built simply as a pleasure car lor jut. Mcmasier, ana ne has never had it patented as an only a few of the devices being covered. The dancing-bear nuisance has become so great in New Orleans that the police courts have taken action on the matter and ordered the seizure of all bears found npon the public roads unless caged.

There is scarcely a house in Louisiana that has not been visited by wandering Turks and their bears. If a dime is given to one of them to get rid of him, the unhappy donor will find a dozen bears and two dozen Turks at his front door next morning, all asking for the same recompense. If they get no money. they will ask for food, and if refused, they will lie down in front of the bouse and ex press their intention of dying there. If you are in need of anything in the job-printing line come to the stayed until you came back and practically turned me out of the house.

"I turned you out of the house I she exclaimed, in blank amazemenL did any thing of the 'I am sorry to contradict a lady but you certainly did. "By this time I had forgotten all about the twins in tho case, and Miss Maggie's brow darkened ominously as she aaid, gravely: "'Mr. Bird, have you been drinking! 1 wish you to distinctly understand that I am not a story-teller; and I say I never saw you after 1 went out of this room after the 'Miss Van Scriver, I want it distinctly and emphatically borne in mind that I am not a liar and if you had not in effect turned me out of the house, pretending to know nothing about me, I should not Lave gone "Then Miss Maggie's eyes flashed as she retorted: "'And you can not oblige me more than by going away "I was half way across the yard to my carriage when I heard a tearfully penitent voice, crying: Oh, Maggie 1 Call him back! Don't let him go It was I that did it "I turned in considerable astonishment, and there stood both girls on the porch, looking so terribly alike that staring at them in semi-idiotic wonder I could not for the life of me have told which was the other. There is but little more of it. The story of bow Laura 'fired me out' and con cealed the fact from Maggie had to be told numberless times, until the moon shone brightly down upon my pleasant reflections as I pursued homeward the lonely road that was not lonely at all." "Well," asked the writer, "is that all there is of it!" ''Yes," said Mr.

Bird, with a queer smile, "except that I am the uncle of those two girls that just left us and the mischievous Laura is their aunt." Lieutenant J. D. Chandlee, in Leslie's Newspaper. DESERT SAND SPOUTS. Orephlo Description of Striking BCM in Africa.

Under the fairest skies thedesert is an awesome solitude, but PFfceil a storm comes it is terrible and availing. I shall nevet forget a scene I witnessed some forty miles beyond the grci.t pyramids, says a writer in the New York Mail and Express. I had gained an isolated hillock, some two hundred feet above tho level of the surrounding desert. Away to the west, about two miles distant, I descried six or seven lofty pillars of sund moving swiftly over the undulating plain. The center one of these was vertical, and those surrounding it, at a distance of two or three hundred yards, leaned slightly toward iL The sand at the base of the was las tied by the furious whirlwind into a surging sea.

Desert trees of the hardest wood were torn up with their roots and hurled hundreds of yards away and 1 igh up into the air even the grass that grew in the path of that terrible storm was thorn clean away from its roots. The summits of those columns of sand at length joined, and then burst forth from their united tops a yellow, gigantic cloud of sand of such magnitude and density as to darken, as in a total eclipse, the face of the br'sht afternoon sun. The sand spout, called by the natives "zobahah," shortly after subsided, but the cloud of sand and grass, which had been raised high in the heavens, continued to darken the setting sun for more than an hour. The smaller column behind traveled swiftly, increasing in size, until it reached the site of the break-up of the other, and then added its mite to the universal destruction. With my sextant, as I stood in security, I measured the height of the center column of sand; it was nearly one thousand feeL The other columns were rising so rapidly that they soon reached a greater height than that of the cenUT column.

When the junction of them all took place the sudden eruption of sand, leaves and grass reached to a total height of over four thousand feeL These "zobahahs" are not very frequent, but when they occur they carry widespread devastation along with them and woe betide the traveler and the tent that happens to stand in their wav. Not more than ten yards from the column the air is perfectly calm, but within the small circumscribing circle there rages such a tempest as will carry away any thiug, however firmly fixed in the ground, into the regions of the upper air as easily as an ordinary gust of wind will blow a piece of aper. The cameL this wonderful ship of the desert, always knows a few hours before whether one of those approaching "zobahahs" is likely to come upon him, and bis natural instinct trill guide him to a place of safety, where he lies down and ouly breathes the cool, reactive current which closely follows the burning, almost suffocating bot air which accompanies the "zobahahs." The usual movement of tbese sand spouts is in the arc of a wide circle, and the direction of the center of the circle is almost invaribly from north to south. When these awful turmoils are over and the disturbing elements have resumed their natural state, the burning snd becomes saturated a heavy dew, the sun is less angry, and the African desert more amenable to life in both man and beasts. wisdom and wonders are indeed beyond man's limited understanding.
