From the Montreal Heraid. For some years Mr. Vennor has undertaken to foretell the weather several months anead, and in his study of the doctrine of chances has occasionally, but rarely, hit upon the right | thing. From this he has gone on blundering, | blustering and bluffing Ina manner which, while it has made him a mark for the merriment of some, has won from others an adm/‘ration and a confidence that appears to have been greatly profitable. The question, “Is this right 2” pre- sents itself, and enters into competition with the more selfisi one, ‘ Will it pay?” That it will pay, that it does pay there can not be any doubt, for if it did not pay we should have ceased long since to hear anything about it. But, thouzh it may pay. is it justifiable, In order | to make it pay, to deceive the public with trash? such, fer instance, as the following, under the captions heading November and December ‘i ovember 1 to 5,a good amount ne, with a frosty snap about the ed snow flurries through mm and northern sections 5th and 12th. i wen The neighborhood of the 7th probably stormy, i sleet or snow, also 11th and 12th wet dresry.” The non-professional prophet | would have been likely. judying from the an- 1; but that be was only a guesser, and had title to warrant his declarations, the events have proved.

It is time such arrant nonsense ceased, The lunatic asylums through- out the country contain patients whose ravings are no sorse than these, and yet they are not suffered to be at large. ‘If Mr. Vennor cannot | calcniate his averazes better than he has done, | wouid it not be more decent, more professional | and more in the cencral interest fer him to ap- ply himself entirely to the interesting and in- | strnetive dati his legitimate calling?

Be- ‘yond Mr. Fotsom’s meadows the road is un- fenced and meanders diagonally across a three mile stretch of sage brush, prickly pear and | badger holes; the ascent to the plateau beyond | | ts through a gulch so deep that a team climbing | would be entirely hidden from any one standing but alittle way above. Mr. Folsom had scarcely reached the brow of this bill when | his horses stopped with a quick snort and he Ueheid at a few rods distance a cinnamon bear | standing face toward him in the middle of the road. The only arms of Mr. Folsom and his | | companion were jack-knives. Mr. Folsom con- | ceived the idea of pressing Bruin to return with him te his ranch. < | He accordingly put his horses into a run, and, | making as short a circuit as possible, was soon between the bear and the mountains, for which the beast was making with all convenlentspeed. It looked for a single instant as if the bear had a | notion of contesting the right of way. But he truck off diagonally for the valley, The circle had been made with comparative ease on the | level surface of the plateau, but on this headlong race down the bluff—over sage brush, badger holes, rocks, ditehes—the wagon leaped, swayed, and pitched like a mad thing. It is no wonder that poor Bruin again turned his course, when. after a chase ofa mile, this jerking, flying, roa Ing, phen etween him andthe mountains.

Licentiousness in England. In a recent sermon Bishop Fraser; of Man- chester, said that it would be vain to build and | restore churches, enlarge schvols, and open mission rooms unless they succeeded in gather- ing the people into them, and influencing them spiritually, morally and socially. It was the moral lifé of the nation that seemed to him in peril just now—the faith of the nation first of ail, arid closely connected with that the moral life and well-being of the people. Some per- |sons thought that intemperance was the great curse hanging over England at the pres- ent moment. He did not think so. There was, nodoubt, a residuum who were cursed with that terrible curse of intemperance; but here were other curses more deadly still. “Peo- ple might be perfectly temperate as far as alco- | holic drinks were concerned, and yet their lives might be anything but accerding to that which had been laid down for them.

Views of an Observant Actress Upon Dress and Flower Throwing in The- aters. From the N. ¥. Sun. “There seems to be ameng American women a lack of judgment about dress at the theater and the opera,” said a well-known actress who, though she has traveled extensively, remains thoroughly American, to a Sun reporter, during & pause in a rehearsal in an up-town theater. “There is nothing between full dress and street dress; the charming demi- toilet, which is. almost universally becoming, is almost unknown. Unflatter- ing as {t may be, there are few women to whom full dress is becoming: ordinary features and faulty forms cannot stand the contrasting splen- dor of satins and velvets in pale tints and the elaborate elegance of full toilet. But at the theater, and especially at the opera, hats and bonnets might be abandoned, and ladies might pay each other and the artists the compliment of something more ornamental than an ordinary street dress. There 1s also a very practical rea- son against hats at the theater. They ai destroyers of both sight and sound. 200 years ago Addison spoke of the beautiful appearance of a theater fall of women with their heads unadorned except by the hairdresser's ar ‘The gala look of foreign theaters is produced solely by the difference in the styie of dress that prevails in contrast to the sober and business- like attire of an American audience. Nor can it be urged that to leave off the objectionable hat und to wear an abundance of soft lace and flowers would be conspicuous, except as being in conspicuous good taste. It is to be wished that the custom of giving singers and actors flowers after an encore could be reformed. No more graceful or poetic idea can be devised to express the epprobation of the public than by giving flowers when this took the form of throwing upon the stage the donquets with which every lady in full dress should be pro- vided. It was chiefly gratifying because of its spontaniety; but what on earth is more aw ward, more devoid of respectful sentiment, than the cruelly artiticial anchors and horseshoes lugged down an aisle by an usher and tilted over the orchestra? “It is true that not every woman who attends the theater can afford a bouquet, by which I mean a inass of scentiess and soull flowers crucified upon toothpicks; but a large propor- tion of them could afford a few fowers, tied acefuily by the stalks, to be given as a sponta- neous tribute ata py moment. Why do not some wowan of fashion go back to the prim- itive beauty of this custom and redeem it from the grotesque yulzarity into which it has fallen?

RANT MAN OR GIAN ‘The Academicians Discuss the 28-inch Footprints Found in Nevada, From tue New York Sun. The Academicians met at Columbia College for the last time yesterday. Professor 0. C. Marsh, of Yale College, chalked on the black- beard pictures of the supposed human footprints found recently in Nevada. They were acci- dentully found near Carson, Nevada, and general attention was drawn to them by the newspapers | ithe west. It is popilarly supposed that they are true human footprints. They are ‘of large size, being from twenty to twenty-eight inches n length, and this is against the theory that they are of human origin, A more serious ob- Jection, however, is the fact that the stride of | the tracks from left to right is too great to leave a dou they were made by something other than man. Those who hold fo the theory of the human origin point to the fact that the tracks are found inthe pliocene geological formation, in which are also found remains of gigantic horses and elephants. Indeed, the tracks of an elephant are found near the supposed human footsteps. It ts a@ curious fact that the footsteps are those of a man, or animal, which appear to wearasandal. That the tracks are footsteps is not doubted by Professor Marsh. They led up Masses of the rock were removed, and the footstep stratum was laid bare. The footsteps were found to con- tinue under the rock. Professor Marsh believes that the footsteps were made by a species of gigantic sloth, the name of the genus being the morotherium. Pro- fessor Lecompt is looking for the bones of the imal. Atmember of the academy seemed to loubt the theory of Professor Marsh, because sloths had claws, and of such the tracks show no traces. Professor Marsh replied that if the tracks were made in quite soft inud the traces of the miglt have disappeared before the mud hardened into stone, or, on the other hand, even ifthe mud was hard enough to receive the tm- pression and keep it, sand might have drifted in and obscured the claw marks. : Then Prof. Newberry, of Columbia College, took some stones out of @ big brown paper, and gave them silently into the hands of the grave gentlemen, who peered at them through their pebble glasses, sidewise, crosswise, lengthwise and point blank, while Prof. Newberry proceed- were pleces of shale, which will be of tinmense value some time. +o+- LUCY'S SEALSKIN SACQUE.

H. W. Grady in Attunta Constitution, Three Georgia ladies, with a Philadelphia lady, who has lived in Europe for many years, are going to leave for a year’s trip in England andon the continent. They take for their ex- pense $900 for the year, including passage. The four, living together in apartments in Lon- don, Paris or Rome, can do well on $25 a month each, and by traveling second ciass can go almost anywhere. Of course they will avoid big hotels and will be ail the better for it. Mr, Ful- ton, of the Baltimore American, has just re- the moral life of this nation, that ticentiousness which they saw rampant through the streets of Manchester every evening that they moved through those streets. That was a curse which in pulpits they hardly dared to mention for fear of shocking some delicate taste, but it needed to be mentioned sometimes, when they knew the ravages it was turned with a party from a three months’ tour in Europe, and the expense of each was 25.75 per day. As they were traveling about constantly their expenses were much heavier than if they had rested for some time at one place.
