Why She Floundcered.
It was after the Monocacy got ovtof the drydock at Nagasaki, writes Charles D. Almy in the Chicago Times-Herald, that she was bearing General Foote, the newly appointed and first American rainister to Korea, Mrs. Foote and the minister’s family to Janchuan, the seaport of Seoul, the capital of Korea. She was midway between the Japanese islands and the Ko- rean peninsula. It was a perfectly calm day, with a sea as smooth as a mirror. General and Mrs. Foote were on the hurri- cane deck, where the awning made life worth living. ‘The man at the wheel won- dered what was the matter. The needle on the compass was bobbing from N.N.E. to W.S.EK.% E. The officer of the deck looked at the compass in the chartroom, and it was vacillating between EK. % E. and W. ‘4 N._ In ten minutes the Monoc- acy was headed for Spitzbergen, Swatow, Cape Town, San Francisco and Lima, and she hadn’t gone ten fathoma. Men were ordered here and thers from the starboard forward coal bunker to the booby hatch to look for the cause of the Monocacy’s latest antic. Finally the lookout in the foretop reported something floating two points off the lee bow. Before his voive could reach the officer of the deck the dpating object was dead astern and aboxzta mile an the sextant would figure. After waddling like a duck around that shiny sea for two hours the Monocacy got in hailing dis- tance of the floating object. It was her rucder.
The Crack Stepper.
The peculiar manner in which a well @ressed gentleman walked down Chestnut street a few evenings ago attracted atten- tion. Some of his steps were of ordinary length, while others were very short and others still very long. A stelwart police- man explained the peculiarity. ‘*That man,’’ said he, *‘is a crack stepper—that tf, he is superstitions and is trying to avoid stepping on a crack between the flagstones forming the sidewalk. There are dozens of persons who believe that to step on acrack is a sign that they will meet with bad luck. ‘They soon get into the habit of regulating their steps so as to avoid the cracks, and they are unconscious of the peculiarity ef their movements. I Know one man who walks on the asphalt near the curb to avoid the necessity of skipping along like a boy trying to play hop scotch. The day he was told of the superstition he lost $10,000 in a specula- tion. Next day he walked on the asphalt apd got it al) back.’’—Philadelphia Press

One Consolation.
On the dock at Tripoli may be seen a curious collection of articles. They rep- resent import and export taxes and are sold by the customs officials, The im-
port tax is 8 per cent of the value, and |
the export tax is I percent. If any one refuses to pay the tax, the officials take possession of one-eighth of the merchan- dise, Some { minister visited Tripoli in the service of hiscountry. He had with him 300 visit- ing cards. When a tax was demanded on these, he was angry and refused to pay & «A high offical of the rovern- ment was summoned to settle the matter. He solemnly confiscated 8 per cent of
