ODD LITTLE MYSTERIES.

One day u well dressed stranger
called n Lawrence hotel and told
the landlord that lie was broke and
very hungry. The landlord took
him to the dining room and gave or-
for a dinner. When lie got up
from the table, a twenty dollar bill
dropped from his handkerchief,
which he drew from his pocket. A
waiter picked it up and handed it to
the landlord, who confronted him
with the at once took out

Weekly.
Happenings Which Seam to Bo
Without
Life is full of bale inexplicable
mysteries, says Pearson's Weekly.
They occur every day and are passed
by as being merely ordinary. When-
ever the conversation turns on
or the occult sciences there is
always some one with a story of the
mysterious to tell.
About years ago on a large
open tract of land in the north of
London fortunately covered
with red brick a number of
boys were playing cricket. Sudden-
there came a loud
like the combined droning of thou-
sands of bees, and a great stone
larger than a man's fist whizzed
across the center of the pitch and
I itself in u bank. Almost
immediately it was followed by an-
other and then a third.
Although they waited in hiding
for some time, there was no
of the mysterious missiles. The
question then arose, Where could
they have come from. The nearest
house was quite yards away, and
a machine to have sent these large
stones whirling at such a frightful
pace over this distance would be
rather an extraordinary article of
furniture for a suburban villa. So
the cause of this remarkable occur-
yet requires explanation.
In same district a few years
back four young men were in
a room playing whist. Suddenly,
after midnight, the door, which
ad been latched, opened slowly
it had reached its fullest limit.
In surprise the players looked up,
but no one was standing in the door-
way. Then, ere one of them could
move, the door slowly closed itself
again. Immediately one of the
men jumped up, pulled the
floor open and stared up and down
the hall, but there was absolute
and no one about.
Some years ago a gentleman was
sealed at a table busily writing. At
the moment he was alone in the
house. Suddenly he heard the pat-
of feet outside the door and then
the sound of R dog barking. Going
outside the room, he saw to his
prise that his dog found its way
from the garden into the house and
for some reason was violently bark-
Crash The room behind him was
suddenly in darkness, and a smell
of escaping gas pervaded the air.
Directly he understood what had
happened and hurried to seal up the
broken pipe of the chandelier. The
latter was lying in a thousand pieces
on the floor.
But for the mysterious instinct
that caused the dog to enter the
house and attract this gentleman's
attention he would probably have
been killed by the falling chandelier,
for he had been sitting directly be-
neath it.
